MAMMOTH GRAIN
TRUST UNEARTHED

Chicago. Sept l9-At the opening
OF the hearing in the case Of the Pea.
vey Elevator Company charged with
accepting rebates on grain shipments,
sensational testimony was developed
to show the existence :of gigantic
grain buying trust which not only
regulates the price of grain but de.
signates markets for certain sections
and states, fixing both selling and
buy ing price. and controls absolutely
the movement of the country's crops.
Whether this mammoth trust is iii.

or series of local combinations is not
definitely established by the govern
ment agents who have been working
actively but secretly under the provi-
sions of the Lafollette resolution

ATTACKED WITHOUT REASON
MIR. Whitney Says Mistaken Idea
Prevails as to Profits of State
Printing Office.

A mistaken idea prevails to some
extent as to the emoluments of the
State Printer and the practical work
ings of the Office. 1t is not the big
"fat" office it is accused of being.
In the first place the appropriation
for printing" conveys a wrong i'm
preston. The biennial appropriation
is not for printing alone, but includes
also the cost Of paper, ruling, election
supplies and many smaller items,
amounting for the biennial period to
about $4,000. The last report of the
Secretary of State to the Legislature
will show these figures to be correct.
Then the State Printer must provide
his own printing plant and pay all
running expenses of the office. The
pay rolls alone for the two years ex-
ceed $4,000. The Salem Typographical
Union can bear out the accuracy of
this statement. The cost of material,
a limited amount of work done in out
side Union offices during a rush in
the State Printing Office, rent, power,
inks, and hundred other expenses,
adds fully $4,000 more. This makes
$4,000 Of expenses which the State
Printer does not get.
Thus it will be readily seen that
when the cost Of production of the
printing is taken into consideration,
the State Printing Office is not all
profit 1t is just like any other print
ing business. 1t costs something to
run it.
Criticism has for years been directed
at the State Printing Offer and it
seems that it still continues. The
State Printer has been accused
of graft, Of dividing the profits of the
office with political bosses, and of a

JUDGE HAYDEN DON'T LIKE 1T
Says Direct Primary viii Not Bring
Out Best Men for Office.

Judge Ben Hayden was out on the
street for the first time since his recent
sickness on Thursday and remarked
that he was we'll, but he had to be
careful with his eighty three years
when these Oregon winters developed
blizzard features. The Judge looks
hale and hearty, however, but he
speaks feelingly of the fact that the
old timers are passing, and that there
are few of the friends of his youth left
in the two counties where he has had
his habitat for so many years.
"There are very few Of the old
fellows left here, and most of them
are bedridden, I say, most of them are
bedridden. They amt taking much

HUSTON VISITS DALLAS
Congressional Candidate Meets Many
People and Makes Good Inn
preston on Voters.


Hon. s. b, Huston, of HilIsboro,
Washington county, has been in Polk
county, few days, looking after his
fences in the race for the nomination
for Congress.
Mr.. Huston is native OF Indiana,
but has been in Oregon for % years.
His father was soldier in Company
G, 18th Indiana Volunteers, and lost
his life in the battle of Stone River.
This left wife and three children, of
whom Mr.. Huston was the Oldest, be-
ing five years old at the time. AS the
family was left in very moderate cir
cumstances, his boyhood was one Of
toll on farm. BY hard labor, econ
omy, and the sacrifices Of his mother,
he was enabled to get good educa-
ton. He worked on farms, in saw
mills and lumber yards, and was for
three years in the employ Of the
Santa Fe r. r. Co. He and @. H.
Markham, late General Superintend-
ent OF the Hartman System, were
section hands on the Santa Fe
together.
He afterwards read law, and came
to Oregon in 1883. After working in
shingle camp, on farm, in -four
ing mill, and with a hay-baler about
year, he settled at Hillsboro and be-
gan the practice Of law in January,
1884. He soon came to the front, and
since about 1890 has ranked as one Of
the leading lawyers Of the State.
He has served as President Of the
State Bar Association, and was
member Of the State Senate from 1892
to 1896. While in the Senate, he was
warm friend of the Monmouth
school. He is serving his fourth con
secutive term as school director at
Hillsboro, and in every instance re-
ceived every vote that was cast.
He was Democrat until 1896, but,
as soon as the silver question became
prominent, declared himself for the
gold standard and did what he could
for the cause of sound money. His
speech was one Of the four deemed
worthy Of publication by the Ore
gonian. He has consistently sup
ported every Republican ticket since
that time. He has freely gone wher-
ever the committee has sent him, and
has never asked or received cent Of
pay, but has always paid his own ex-
penses.
As a result of his large business, he
has become independent financially,
and is not after the Office for the
salary.
He was married In 1884 to Miss Ella
Geiger, a daughter of DR.. William
Geiger, a pioneer Of 1889. They have
three children-one daughter at the
State University at Eugene, anu two
boys at Pacific University at Forest
Grove. Mrs. Huston accompanies him
on his campaign. While here they
we're the guests of Rev. A. @. Bracken-
bury, whose wife is a sister Of Mrs.
Huston.
Mr.. Huston does not ride on pass,
or free transportation Of any kind,
but prefers TO pay his own way. He
is especially earnest in his support Of
the maximum rate law advocated by
President Roosevelt. He is pleasant
gentleman to meet socially, and made
a good impression here.

CANDIDATE FOR REPUBLICAN
NOMINATION AS STATE
TREASURER

Born in Rhode Island As years ago,
Judge Ryan came to Oregon in his
2lst year and entered into the employ
OF the Brownsville Woolen Mills Co.,
at its factory in Brownsville. The
following year he went to Oregon City,
where he has since resided. He has
been elected as Mayor, City Recorder
and School Director and Clerk of Ore
gon City and for the last seven years
he has been the County Judge of
Clackamas County, in which position
he has proven himself to be an ex-
ceptionable business man, paying off
the Indebtedness Of over 100000 and
at the same time constructing each
year many miles of good, improved
modern roads, and decreasing the tax
levy each year.
In an interview Judge Ryan says
Being neither President, Cashier nor
in any Bank, nor agent
nor employe of any money loaning
Institution, I pledge myself to use
and guard the funds of the State in a
strict conformity to the laws of the
State and for the interests Of all the
people and not discriminate in favor
of any institution or person. AS
man of the people, independent Of
any clique, faction or corporation, I
request the support of all Republicans
in securing this nomination, and if
elected I promise to perform every
duty required of the State Treasurer
in an efficient and economical
manner"

1t is the opinion OF the many friends
of Frank W. Benson, Of Roseburg
that he has all OF his competitors
distanced in the race for the Re
publican nomination for Secretary of
State. Not only is it conceded that
practically all of Southern Oregon is
solid for him, but it is also known
that he is developing considerable
strength in Eastern Oregon. From
the fact that he was for a number Of
years a resident of Portland and has
many friends in that city there is
little question that he will carry
Multnomah County by a large
majority.
Mr.. Benson was born in Santa Clara
County, California, in 1858, and came
to this state in 1864. While a resident
of Portland he was pupil at the old
Central High School. His father,
II. G. Benson, d. D., was for four
years editor Of the Pacific Christian
Advocate. In 1880, Mr.. Benson moved
to Roseburg, where for eight years he
served in the County Clerks office,
first as deputy and then as clerk. He
left official life with a clean record,
and has since been engaged in the
practice Of law. Mr.. Benson is by ex-
perience well qualified for the Office to
which he aspires, and there is little
question that, IL elected, he VIII give
the state a clean, economical and eff
cient administration Of the Office Of
Secretary Of State.

further division for the use of the
state printing plant. There is abso-
lutely no truth in these statements. l
pay 800 per month rental for the
plant and no more, which is con-
sidered a reasonable rental. I have
lease duly signed to this effect, and
there has been no division of the office
with any person.
The fees paid the State Printer are
fixed by law, and every item printed
is measured by an expert printer, ap-
pointed by the Governor, whose duty
it is to measure the printing and affix
the amount due as provided by law.
Governor Chamberlain appointed to
this position Mr. Albert Tozier,
Democrat, a practical printer and
secretary Of the Oregon Press Associ-
alton, whose integrity is unquestioned
and who has measured all printing
done and approved all bills therefor
in strict accordance with law. Every
bill for printing is also carefully
audited by the Secretary of State. Mr..
Dunbar is acknowledged to be one of
the best officers the state has ever had,
and his auditing stamp of approval is
sufficient guarantee Of honest ac-
counting.
The State Printing Office is target
of attack without just reason. The
heavy cost of printing in past years
has been chiefly due to the large
number of copies printed. This has
been reduced by law, and the price
now paid by the State for most of the
public printing is not above that
charged by the printing firms OF
Portland, and some of it considerably
less. For some classes of work,
especially where a large number Of
copies are required to be printed, the
price should be reduced somewhat.
have given this subject careful
study, and believe there are two
methods by which the cost Of
printing could be kept down to
minimum. One is to limit the volume
of printing and revise the schedule Of
prices upon an up-to-date basis, the
same as that Of commercial printing
generally. The other is for the State
to own and operate its own printing
plant, and to pay the State Printer a
reasonable fiat, fixed salary. Either
Of these plans, or similar plans along
these lines, which the Legislature
might adopt for the betterment Of the
service, would meet my hearty sup
port.
Ny Republicanism will be attested
by the people Of Linn County, where 1
formerly edited the Daily and Weekly
Herald for twenty years.
AS a native Oregonian and printer
Of twenty-five years. experience, I
have eDdeavored TO conduct the State
Printing Office in a clean, business
like manner, and as a candidate for a
second term, am willing to stand up
on my record. The books Of the Office
are open for inspection.
