FOUND BY HUNTERS

San Diego, Calf, Oct. 20.-The
bleached bones of two human skele-
tons on which were fragments of

will be. The bones are those of men.
Seven large gold Filings in the teeth
may aid to identify one of the un-
fortunates. The fragments of cloth
ing found are too weather worn to

months in investigating the wood pulp
and print paper industry in Miehi-
gan, Wisconsin and Minnesota, the
committee Of six appointed by con-
gress to study the conditions, will
recommend that the duty on the pro-

CONGRESSMAN Mann, a member OF

mills that have nearly all their
spruce timber shipped from Mime

the plants of the three states working

Canada appears to be the only
salvation. If we cannot arrange

Pleasant Rcmembranccs.

Captain Hobson is glad to be in
Pendleton This afternoon he stated
that in no town Of similar size in the
west had he been so pleasantly en-
tertained as upon the occasion of his
last visit to Pendleton. He declared
that no town in the west was so
pleasantly associated with the mem
ories Of his lecturing tours and prais-
ed highly the people and the enter
rrislng Pendleton spirit
Although Captain Hobson reached
Pendleton on No. /, disappointment
reigned In the faces Of the large DEL
egation which met the train when the
captain failed to appear. He was at
luncheon at the time. and the por-
ter had neglected to warn him so
that not until Or. Smith and others
o. the party invaded the train did the
naval hero realize that he was back
among friends.

A scatching indictment Of the re-
publican party particularly in its
policies toward the Pacific coast, was
delivered this afternoon by Captain
Richmond p. Hobson, the hero OF the
Merrimac, in telling political
speech before a crowded audience II.
the court room More particularly
Captain Hobson devoted his attention
to the protective triff and its rela-
ton to the west, and to the utterly
defenseless condition in which the
present administration had left the
great Pacific coast, as against Asia
tic invasion, either by armed forces
or bv cheap labor.

Audience Enthusiastic.

or by cheap labor.
Audience Enthusiastic.
Throughout the address Captain
Hobson was cheered by an enthusias-
tic audience which listened with clos
est attention 10 his able discussion.
The discussion OF the rights and in
terests OF the Pacific coast brought out
the greatest applause.
During the course OF the address
Captain Hobson confined himself
largely to the issues OF the tariff. and
coast protection. Incidental refer
ences to the bank deposit guaranty
plan, the rights OF labor and other
democratic doctrines of which he re-
GREETED time would not permit discus
sion, were warmly greeted.
Time for Change.
"The people want n change" said
Captain Hobson in opening his discus
sion. "and they demand It," He de-
clared that on every hand il was rec
ognized that some change in the
present policies OF the government
must be secured. That the Democrat
ic party was the logical party of re-
form was shown in an able discus
sion Of the fundamentals of the two
schools Of political thought. Accord
ing 10 Captain Hobson. In every form
OF government are the conservatives
and the liberals The changing OF
power preserves the balance OF gov
ernment and makes its foundation Sc
cure. The time for a change was
evinced, said the captain, by the party
in power affording a shelter to pri-
vate interests instead OF a protection
TO the rights and interests of the peo-
pie as whole. He declared that
such a condition now existed in Am
erica and that the people demanded
what was their due at the hands Of
the government.
Respects 10 Fulton.
Indirectly Captain Hobson paid his
respects to Senator Fulton, who last
night declared that the republican
party had protected the American
laborcr against Asatc immigration
Captain Hobson showed that Presi-
dent Roosevelt himself had advocated
the admission of Japanese to the
rights Of citizenship, and that only
the democratic platform declared for
Aslatic exclusion, while that of the
republicans was discretely silent

sons belief.
