CLOCK
HAS MANY
HANDS

Jack Rogers has a clock. There is
this statement alone, but this clock has
pe~culiarities which are not common
with the clock family in general. 1t is
a large walnut affair, which repOses
peacefully in the same position that it
has occupied for the past 40 years, on
the wall of what is now the Bank sa-
in position 40 years ago it was in
Green & Simpson saloon, the Bclve-
dere, which was purchased by Mr..
Rogers, the clock going with the rest
of the fixtures of the place. The strik-
ing popularity of this triumph of the
clockmaker's art is that all the hands,
of which there are five, only point di-
rectly upward at the same time once in
seven years. Theseven years time was
up yesterday at high noon, when the
minute and hour hands pointed at -,
the day hand at Sunday, the date at
the LIST, and the month hand at Janu-
airy. j. II. Haas, who has n similar
clock in his home, these two being the
only ones of the make in the city, has
now watched this proceeding seven
times since the clock has been in the
city. This was made possible at the
end of the century when n day was
dropped, and the hands came to "A YER
teal position at the same time. Yes
terday being Sunday Mr.. Haas could
not gain @pentrance to the saloon to
watch the hands for the seventh time,
but, nevertheless, he was not to be dis
appointed, 50 he took up his position
on the outside of the glass door, and,
peering through the glazed work, he
watched the hands pass the hour Of IL.

STATE
CHAIRMAN
BAKER
Has Taken a Hand in EIecting
Speaker.

The speakership fight has assumed a
new aspect, and the supporters Of Thos.
b. Kay are said, by u Salem correr
spondent Of a Portland paper, to be
greatly inccnsed at State Chairman
Frank G.. Baker. He is accused of try
ing to influence the election of A. l..
Mills, Of Portland. Friends of Mr.. Kay
have undoubtedly precipitated a fight
between Mr.. Kay and the state chair
man, which is indicated by the follow
ing letter issued by Mr.. Baker:
Portland, Or, Dec. 80, 19O4-My
Dear Mr.. --: Considering it with.
in the scope of my office as chairman
of the Republican State Central Com
mittee to make suggestions that will
conduce to the best interests of our
party, l respectfully invite you to sup
port Mr.. A. Il. Mills for speaker of the
house of representatives. Mr.. Mills is
accounted the leading citizen Of Oregon
in n commercial sense, and for this and
other good and sufficient reasons ] have
reached the conclusion that party har-
mOny will be best subserved by his cleo
ton.
Bespeaking a continuous and salts
factory administration of the i'm
portant trust reposed in you, and hop
ing fortune will smile on you and yours
during the coming year, | beg to re-
main, sir, with perfect respect, your
obedient servant.
FRANK c. BAKER.
Mr.. Bakers letter is not signed as
state chairman, and he claims to be
only exercising his p%rerogative as a
citizen of Multnomah county to support
the local candidate for speaker, just as
the Republican state committeeman
from Marion county is supporting Mr..
Kay as the Marion county candidate,
and the Republican state committee
man from Jackson county is doing all
in hi S power to secure the election of
Mr.. Vawter. 1t is evident that Port
land interests will make n determined
effort to capture the speakership, and
all hopes Of securing support for Mr..
Kay from MultnOmah county are
abandoned. Mr.. Kay still expresses the
greatest confidence among his friends
that he will land the high Office with
votes TO spare.

To Whom it May CoDcern:
Having been informed tina the
friends of Governor Montague
are circulating in Rockbridge
County, the statement that
Senator Martin was associated
with me in the suits against the in
dividual stockholders of Lexington
Development Company, to enforce
the payment Of tbs balances due
on their stock subscriptions, l
desire to say, in justice to Senator
Martin, that the above statement is
untrue. Senator Martin was not
associated with me in those suits,
had nothing to do with them, and
never received a penny of my fee or
commissions for collections therein.
l alone had the entire manage
ment and control of the suits, aud
conducted them as I thought best
for the Interests of my client. What
aver of blame orcredit attaches to
that litigation is due to me alone.

Governor Montagus's Address to
Voters of Rockbridge


Governor A. j. Montague ad
dressed the voters of Rockbridgt
today at the Courthouse. A larg,
and enthusiastic audience was
present, and the distinguished
speaker was frequently applauded,
Many ladies were in the audience,
and the gallery had a gooC
sprinkling of colored people. The
occasion was enlivened by music
from the V. NJ. 1. band.
Governor Montague was pre-
sented by Hon. H. St. George
Tucker, who said it gave him pc
culiar pleasure to present the dis
tinguisbed speaker to a Rockhridge
audience. Mr.. Tucker referred to
the TACT that in 1892, while a
member of Congress from this
district, be had introduced a bill
for the election Of United States
Senators by the direct vote of the
people, and-two years later it had
passed the House, only to be killed
in the Senate. Mr.. Frank Moore,
chairman of the Democratic FIX.
ecutive Committee, presided.
Governor Montague was In fine
voice and his speech was an
eloquent presentation of his claims
for Senatorial honors. The cd
dress was vigorous effort, spark
ling with eloquent passages, strong
in argument, Astounding in happy
witticisms and sharp satire,
aggressive in spirit, bold in
criticism and skillful and able in
defence. He declared that he
rested his claims upon the free
and unbiased Judgment of the
people of Virginia, and not to
secret legislative caucuses.
In this connection he argued in
favor of the primary, which gives
every man the power of the ballot
in selecting public officials. He
asserted that the election of Unit
ed States Senators by the people
was conducive to greater purity
in the Senate, from the fact that
a free ballot would give every
man share directly in the gov
eminent. A man elected to
office by the people is the servant
Of the people, man elected by
monopolists is the servant of
monOpolists, He said he would
rather be defeated by the peoples
vote than be compromisingly
elected by machine ring.
