East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-12-10

That Umatilla county people have
an able and aggressive advocate OF
the state jute plant in Representative
Charles A. Barrett of Athena, is shown
from the following interview from
Mr.. Barrett in the Oregon Sunday
Journal OF yesterday. That Mr.. Bar
rett will have the heartiest co-opera-
ton from every other Umatilla coun-
ty member OF the legislature is also
an assured fact, and with this delega-
tion solldly arrayed on the side of the
jute plant, II is believed that the
passage Of the jute plant bill will un-
doubtedly be effected. The Sunday
Journal says:
The jute mill measure has a firm
friend in c. A. Barrett representative
TO the legislature from Umatilla coun-
ty, who was Portland visitor yes
terday and who is now preparing a
bin providing for the establishment
OF jute mill of 20 looms at the Sa-
lem penitentiary.
Mr.. Barrett is one OF the success
full business men of Umatilla county
and Is well known throughout eastern
oregon as II merchant ana pOnuclan.
He IS also the owner of warehouse
as ,eil as the farmer OF many acres
of wheat so that he has personal in
terest in the jute mill and what It
might do toward the government OF
jute bag prices.
The principal request of the east
ern oregon district aside from irriga-
tion legislation, according to Mr. Bar
rett, win be for the enactment of the
tute mill law. The stockmen and
woolgrowers, the farmers and wheat
growers, all will join In the move
ment to secure the passage of the
jute min act. Practically all of the
eastern Oregon delegations will be In
line behind the proposition and will
fight hard TO see the scheme made a
law.

What Barrett Says.

81 am very much interested in the
enactment of jute mill law" said
Mr.. Barrett yesterday afternoon. 81
have been studying the question for
some time and have been urged by
my friends and by nearly every man
who has need for either grain or wool
sacks TO prepare n bill providing for
the creation OF jute mill. l have
yielded to the demands of my con-
stituents and am preparing a bin for
the legislature.
"I am sorry to see that Governor
Chamberlain has not favored the
jute mill" continued, the speaker,
but hope that by the time the meas
ure is before the legislature he will
have changed his views. In my opin-
ion jute mill at the penitentiary
would make the institution self-sup-
porting; II would take convict labor
out of all chance OF competition with
free labor and would also serve as a
governor of the price of jute bags in
the open market.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-12-10
Outlines His Plans.

at is my plan" said Mr.. Barrett,
40 provide in my bill for the equita-
BILE distribution of the product of the
mill throughout the state. I would
make such regulation that the farmer
in eastern oregon would secure his
share of prison-made jute bags as
readily as the man who tills the
ground under the walls OF the prison.
with jute mill, the prison would
be self-supporting. The present an
nual deficit would be a thing of the
past and the heavy tax necessary for
the maintenance of the prison would
be materially decleased and perhaps
entirely wiped out"
There are several other things
which the eastern oregon delegations
will ask of the legislature, but the
jute mill is perhaps the one which
will be most before the eye of the
public. Mr.. Barrett was asked about

BAR HAaBoR HORSE SHOW.
Dates, Aug. FL, 20 and % = Prize
List Has Been Issued.

List Has Been Issued.
The prize list for the seventh annual
Bar Harbor Horse Show is being issued
from the office OF the show by Secretary
w. H. N voss. The show will be held at
Robin Hood park, Aug. Il, % and %.
Mr.. voss has made an early start this
year, and has the office OF the association
open earlier by some weeks than it ever
has been before. In fact, Mt. Voss devoted
a considerable amount of his time during
the winter to the preparations for the
show, and the result is now apparent in
that entries may be received at this early
date.
| That the show this summer will be the
greatest success yet known is generally
believed, and the early start means much,
for it means that the usual grand hurly-
burly of the last few days before the fair
will be avoided and all arrangements
made long beforehand and in the most
thorough manner.
1t also means many more entries, for the
horse owners may now make their plans
for Bar Harbor before their arrangements
are made for some other place.
The list of classes as arranged by Gen.
Morrell and Mr.. Voss is an admirable one,
comprising thirty-six classes. Cash
prizes are offered in the classes for public
carriages and in the breeders class, and
cups elsewhere, in many cases cups being
offered for second prizes. The entries will
close August 6.
1t has been determined this year to give
four ribbons in each class blue to first,
to fourth.

STRIFE MoNoER AGAIN BUSY.

Mr.. Geo. NJ. Jacobs, who has been
considerably indisposed at his home
for several days, was very much In
censed at an article which appeared
in the Times a few days ago. 1t was
shown to him the latter part of the
week by one of his business associates
and he feels that he ought to make a
public denial Of the charges set forth
IN the article. 1t was stated by the
Times that Mr.. Jacobs went to Wash.
lgton to take a hand in the Manning
ton postoflce fight and that he was
working against the reappolntment of
Postmaster Huey. That declaration
was a lie out Of the whole cloth, as
Mr., Jacobs went to Washington on an
entirely different business. He did
not speak to a man in Washington
concerning the Warrington postottice
question and he had no intention Of so
doing when he went. Mr.. Jacobs can
support this statement by an affidavit
II it becomes necessary. Mr.. Jacobs
thinks the Warrington people are
competent to settle their own Dostof'
fee AFFAIRS and he Is willing for them
to do so, so far as he is concerned.
The article in the Times looks like
another effort to try to create discord
and strife between the Fairmont and
Warrington people, but it will fail as
all such efforts deserve to do.

MAYOR KINsEY NOT a cANpI.
DATE FOR REELECTION.

Mayor Geo. W. Kinsey was a visitor
at the West vlrginian Office this morn.

the West virgtnlan that he would
not lie a candidate for reelection.
This announcement will do doubt
come as great surprise to many PEG.
pie Of the city. as It hal been semi.
officially stated through the papers
that he would be q candidate again.
The mayor says be would not run
again under any circumstances, that
he would not want the place even If
he could be elected, 1t is we'll known
among his friends that the work has
never been to his liking and that he
has never had the backing of the PEG.
pie who were most active in his cleo.
ton. The very first movements made
by him toward instituting reforms
were thwaTted by bis chief supporters
AMI he had to recede from his position
from lack of support OF his supposed
friends. 1t is nov very clear to
Mayor Klnsey, as It was to the West
1virglnian all along, that many Of his
supporters who were crying reform
we're insincere in their declarations,
The result has been that Mayor Kin.
sey has been unable to accomplish
but little, thus disappointing his
friends and political associates among
the ProhlbltionIsts and for some
cause the Democrats have chosen to
throw him down, so he stands today,
where many and many a man has
stood after being elected on combina.
tion ticket, alone and unsupported by
the people who were once his ardent
friends, in appearance at least, Many
people think they see in the DECLARE
ton of the Democrats to run straight
ticket an effort on their part to break
away from Mayor Kinsey and to keep
from having to be held responsible for
the failures they have helped to bring
about in his administration. The
West virginian really sympathizes
with Mayor Klnsey in his loneliness
and dearth Of supporters, but he is
no doubt a wiser Il not a happier man
by.reason Of the past two years expe.
