FOR MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.
WalIa Walla People Present Three Pc
titiOns to Council.

The following from the Walla Walla
Unioon, would indicate that with all
its private electric light and power,
the sentiment in favor of municipal
ownership is growing rapidly. The
Union says:
Three petitions for additional street
lights in various parts of the city,
when presented to the council last
evening, preciptated few casual re-
marks from various members of that
body which would indicate that with
the completion of the proposed grav-
ity water supply system UP Mill creek
sentiment would soon crystalize in fa-
vor of a municipal lighting plant
The remarks were called forth by

MUST STAND BY PLATFORM.
Candidate Must Not Change Declara-
ton of Principles.

Salem, Feb. 16.-The following
opinion furnished yesterday to Secre-
tary of State Dunbar by Attorney
General Crawford, will be of interest
to candidates who sometimes like to
revise" their platform after they
discover its effect before the people:
Replying to yours of the 18th in
slant, requesting opinion of this office
as to whether a person who is can
didate for nomination under the d.
rect primary nominating law, after he
has filed a copy of his application de-
claring the measures he advocates and
the form in which he wishes it after
his name on the nomination ballot,
can file another application changing
the principles he advocates and the
form to be printed after his name, /
beg to say that l have examined sec
tion II of the direct primary nomina-
ting elections law, upon that question.
which requires the county clerk, re-
corder. or auditor of cities or towns
having 1000 inhabitants or more to
keep a book entitled Register of Can
didates for Nomination at the Primary
Election and requires such officer to
enter in said book on different pages
Of the book the different political
parties subject to the provisions of
this law, the title of the office sought
and the name aid residence of each
candidate for Nomination at the pri-
mary nominating election, the name
of the political party, the date of re-
ceiving the first copy of his petition,
signed by the candidate. the words he
wishes printed after his name on the
nominating ballot, If any, the
date of receiving his petition,
the number of signatures thereon,
and the number of signatures required
to make valid and sufficient petit
ton for nomination to said office by
his political party, and such other in
formation as may aid him in arrang-
ing his official ballot for said primary
nominating election.
at will be seen that the duty of the
secretary of sta te is to Immediately
enter in his register at the time of the
candidates. first petition or state
ment is filed. the name of the candi-
date and his political party, and the
words he wishes printed after his
name on the nominating ballot, and
the date of receipt of the same.
''1f candidate were permitted to
change that whenever he chose to do
so, then the secretary of state would
have to change the record, and can
didatc might think as the canvass
progressed that by adding to or taking
from his declaration OF principles he
could strengthen his position before
the people, but am of the opinion
that he must do that in some other
way for the reason that the record Is
made under the law, and no provision
exists in the law, that I am able to
find. which will permit of changing
of that record in any material matter
after ii is once filed.
''If a man makes mistake in sign
ing his name or something of that ma
ture. the name might be corrected,
but the declaration of principles, |
think, must stand, substantially as in
the register. Any other course would
make endless confusion"

HARVEY X. BROWNS CREED.
Reform Sheriff OF Baker Would Be
u Reform Governor.

The platform of Harvey X. Brown,
of Baker City the latest republican to
announce his candidacy for the gov
ernorship, advocates the primary law
and the election of all officers by di-
rect vote of the people; abolishment
of machines and of the use of money
for campaign purposes by any can
didate, faction or corporation; en-
forcement OF all laws, federal, state
and municipal and the repeating of
such laws as may, after a fair trial,
be found not proper laws for the peo-
Pile; and last, but not least, woman
suffraRe--these are some of the
planks which "Harve" Brown has
nailed into his platform, says the Ba-
ker City dispatch.
Brown is the sheriff OF Baker coun-
ty-the reform sheriff. For two years
he has been standing firm in the en-
forcement of the statutes of this state.
As a result open gambling is thing
of the past and all Baker CITY saloons
remain closed on the Sabbath day.
"Harve" Browns incumbency OF
the office of sheriff of Baker county
has been one continual fight. He be-
gan the enforcement OF all the laws
he could lay his hands on. On his
own initiative he brought about the
indictment. trial and conviction of 15a
Baker county saloon men.
Harvey X. Brown is a native Ore
gonian, He was born 35 years age
in Pocahontas, village near Baker
City. His father was one of the
builders of the west, crossing the
ocean from Ireland in 1871, and the
plains in 1861. His son spent thai
portion of his early life which counts
the most as a character former, or
the cattle range.
When IL years old he was one Of
the best known cowboys in eastern
Oregon. In 1891 he began shipping
horses to the eastern markets, max.
ing frequent trips as far east as the
Atlantic seaboard. Later he forsooE
the horse and cattle business for min.
ing. outside of his charming wife
and 12-year-old daughter, and a
mother, Mr.. Brown has no relatives
of that name west of the Missouri
river.
Sheriff Brown is an Elk, a Work.
man and Knight of Pythias.

PRAISES OLD MEXICO.
Country Is Rich I'm Land. Mines. TIM
bcr and Other Resources.

Scott Rogers arrived on the early
morning train from a three months
tour in California and Old Mexico,
says the Lewiston Teller. He visited
every considerable city in Mexico and
went everywhere the railroads go.
ut is great country" said Mr..
Rogers this morning, land is making
wonderful development at present by
the aid of American and English capt.
tai and under the energy of the initia-
tive taken by these people. But Mex
leo is not poor mans country. It's
wealth is in mines of silver and lead
and in its forests. The country Is
rough and broken and 1t costs mil
lions to build railroads to open the
country.
'It is the country for young man
who could take the time to go there
and make study of the language and
grow up among the people, but the
tenderfoot is an easy mark there and
would get robbed to death before he
could get in touch with conditions"

Governor OF the islands to use his In
fluence with Governor Pardec OF this
State OF California TO secure the re-
lease ~ your son. am very aorry
that you have done anything ut thlr
time. and II the papers are still In the
hands OF the Governor I would advise
you To have him hold them until the
time that I may ask you to assist In
the matter OF petitioning the Govern
or In order to do anything with a
petition TO the Governor OF the State.
II will be necessary for us to appeal
to the Supreme Court. The Governor
VIII never interfere as long as the de-
PENDANT has any legal remedy open
to him. II we succeed In our appeal
to the Supreme Court. we will secure
IA new trial and at that time I think
we will be able to have a better case
Tor your son. We would of course
have the assistance of money. which
would aid us greatly in the case. II
the Supreme Court decides against us,
so that we have no legal remedy, then
we can appeal to the Governor. At
that time would like very much to
have the assistance OF the Governor
of the islands because his influence
might be worth great deal. I hope
TO keep the case In the courts until
after the LIST of January, 1907. At that
time we will have a new Governor in
the State of California, and l think we
VIII stand better chance before him
than before Governor Pardee. Gov
ernor Pardee is very hard and will not
assist a man except under extraordi-
nary circumstances.
Your son tells me that he has a piece
of land in the islands that you have
given him, and he thinks that the !
money can be raised on that II that
is possible / would advise you to do
1t at once. He is now in n position
where he needs money If he ever did, .
Or will. II the money is not forthcom-
ing. 1t will go pretty hard with him,
AS we cannot do the best for the case.
II he does not get the money now, he
Will never need 1t hereafter. Under the

'aise any money that you can on any
property that belongs to him. and send

There has been no date set for the
execution of your son. and it will not

GAS FROM cocoANurs

Gas from cocoanuts is the latest H.
luminant. The coal OF the Philippines
has been found unsuitable for gas
making purposes. The Government,
therefore. has been experimenting in
the laboratories. and has found that a
gas OF great Illuminating power may
be produced by a very simple method
from cocoanut oil. The oil is slowly
fed into retorts. which are already red
hot. Here II volatilizes very rapidly,
leaving small residue OF tar. Bulk
for bulk the oil has a much greater
productiveness In gas then coal, and for
this reason 1t Is expected that II the
supply can be made to meet the de-
mand, II will be greatly used where
cocoanuts are abundant. = Auckland

INFANT MORTALITY.

The attention Of the Town Council at

directed to the fact that out OF eighty
four Infants. who died in December.
forty-four of them had died OF dysen-
terry. An investigation with a view OF
tracing the source OF the disease was
authorized. Under the best OF condi-
tions attacks OF dysentery are very
prevalent among children In warm
weather. but In a large majority or
cases the lives OF the little ones can
be saved by the use OF Chamberlain's

This remedy always brings prompt re-

AS our readers know. Edward Ma.
nase, Hawaiian. n son OF Rev. Mr.
Manase OF this city. is In jail at Sac
ramentO, convicted OF murder. He
believes that he can appeal successfully
on the ground that he acted In self
defense hut he has no money. One
hundred dollars are wanted and, as
is stated on the editorial page OF this

fortunate boys father, assisted by the

Manase, who is now confined IN the
Sacramento County. Jail awaiting trial
for murder. 1 believe he has written
to you couple of times explaining
the circumstances of the case and tell
ing you that he acted In self-defense at
the time he shot the man, fearing that
he was in danger of being killed him
self. Under the laws here 1t Is a good
defense, II he can find evidence suffi-
Client to prove 1t. He realizes that II
is serious charge against him and It
will be difficult to prove self-defense.
Nevertheless, he has hopes and even
IL we do not get him free, 1t is very
likely that a defense can be put up
sufficient to have the charge reduced
to manslaushter the punishment of
which is not to exceed ten years in
the penitentiary.
AS your brother has told you, he Is
without means to employ an attorney,
and he has asked me to write to you to
see IL you will assist in this matter. If
you will forward 800 to me or to your
brother in care of the Sheriff of Sac
County, California, I will un-
lertake your brothers defense and do
ny utmost to secure an acquittal or,
II least, secure conviction on the
over charge, and IL successful In saw (
ng his life, an additional 500 to be paid
ne at that time.
Your brother Is anxious to have me

I hope that you will reply immedi-
