Admiral Evans Retort Direct.

The personality hat his closest
friends know is roughly quaint and
lovable, and the anecdote hat they
tell as most characteristic of Admi-
raj Evans, the man, his love of fun
and dislike of mean-spiritedness and
as greatly exaggerated as the death
of Mark Twain, is hat of his going
alone in ordinary street clothes for
a visit to Trinity Church, says Hamp-
tons Broadway Magazine. No usher
being in sight, he seated himself in
a pew well in front. A man with two
ladies sought the same pew a little
while later, frowned at the admiral
as hat warrior arose oplitely to al
low the women and their escort to
pass him and seat themselves in the
same enclosure. The man continued
to stare and frown at the intruder,
and finally drew out a notebook, tore
off a leaf and wrote briefly upon it,
handing it with a sudden gesture to
the sailor. Adjusting his blasses the
latter read on the slip, 81 pay $4,000
a year for this pew"
The admiral took out a pencil of his
own. Shortly afterwards he handed
the slip of paper back. The man read,
bit his lips, got red and then sub
sided. Evans had written:
you paw too - much"

MILITARY BOARD REPORT
The Limit Prescribed by the Act of
Congress is Not Enough-The Mil
itary Board Have Completed Their
Work.

WASHINGTON, June IL The
military board appointed by the sec
retary OF war to reorganize its militia
completed their work today. They
reached the conclusion that the
militia cannot be fully equipped for
field service for the 100000 limit
prescribed by an act of Congress in
any one year and the opinion Of
members is that the process of the
equipment must be carried on for a
number Of years. General Drain OF
the State Of Washington was made
the chairman of the board.

there did not keep their promises,
and the company was obliged 10
spend $4,000 Tor small strips Of land
which had been promised them as a
bonus II the road would be built.
Tillamookers are still holding up
work now, and President Lytle, when
asked when operations would be re-
sumed, exclaimed
'l'll be did II known, and III be
DID II | care"
Summer up briefly, here are hun
dreds Of steam and electric railroads
work already under way, backed by
almost unlimited capital, 10 tap rich,
undeyeloped regions which have been
crying for transportation facilities for
years, on which a stroke Of work
cannot be done, thanks 10 few
greedy landowners, whose property
will be tremendously enhanced in
value, the moment these railroads are
in operation.
The effect is even more far-rcach-
ing and serious than appears on the
face Of II and as explained above, for
when Eastern capitalists who come
out here from time to time looking
for safe and profitable industrial in
ycstments see how railroad promoters
and builders have been faring at the
hands OF the "mossbacks" heretofore.
they are at once discouraged over the
outlook and in that way volumes OF
money eager for work is driven away.
There is also another deplorable as
pcct to the situation, AT no time in
years has structure material been so
cheap as II is now, and so easy TO get.
The structural steel market is slug
gish, with prices way down, and there
is a sufficient supply available to fill
all orders almost Immediately. At the
same time, the inactive business
world generally has found the rail-
roads with an enormous amount OF
idle equipment on their hands, so
that the material could be laid down
here on very short notice.
Yet, in the face Of all these condi-
tions, 80 favorable to railroad build
ing in this territory, capital is dor
mant and labor is restless and idle,
while the great and undeveloped re-
sources Of Oregon are needlessly
negected.

wiring to the farthest corners Of the
hall. "Fevered fancy of an uneasy
decade was his indictment hurled
against the visionary policies Of the
opposition parties. The applause
hardly died away when Lodge launch
ed his sentence, which electrified the
assemblage into its first real demon
stration OF wild enthusiasm.
THE President" exclaimed Lodge,
is the most abused and the most
popular man in the United States
today" This was the long awaited
signal and instantly the shout broke
from the galleries and was echoed
back from the floor after the tempest
Of detached yells and cat calls and
shouts Of TEDDY" but gradually the
whole gathering joined in the OUT
break. The delegates were on their
feet, on the chairs wavaing hands, and
newspapers, one delegate had torn
his coat off and was waving it, and
there was general pandemonium. In
the midst Of it all some one hurled a
huge Teddy bear" among the dele
gates and it was pitched back and
forth from one delegation to another,
the tempest OF noise became greater
if that were possible. Thirty minutes
passed, forty-6ve, full three quar-
ters Of an hour in this bewildering
confusing OF sight and sound.
Frank H. Hitchcock, Taft's man
ager, moved about the floor smiling
as the tumult was at its height The
cheers for Roosevelt today will be for
Taft tomorrow said he with conf
dence
Tomorrow's session will open at 10
o'clock instead of noon as heretofore
so that the whole day may be had
for the discussion of the principles
and the men,
PRONUNCIATION of letter from vice
President Fairbanks reiterating his
'Irrevocable determination" to not
again be candidate for Office, he
now holds was the most important
development Of the day in connection
with the vice-presidential nomination.
If the republican convention re-
fuses to adopt the platform on which
Secretary Taft feels he can make the
winning race, the republican conven-
ton will have to find the man who
needs no platform to win,
AT 10 o'clock tonight the sub-com-
mittee on the resolutions which has
been revising the draft Of platform as
prepared in Washington decided to
incorporate the plank regarding the
use of injunctions in the labor con-
troversies and the full committee was
called in to receive the sub-commit-
tees report, The injunction plank
asserts that the republican party ad-
ways has and will uphold the pro-
cesses and proceedings of the courts
and has absolute faith in their integ-
rity Due notice shall be given the
impending injunction proceedings,
The agreement is that the only
nominating speeches and the one sec
onding speech for each candidate will
be made, The speech nominating Taft
will be made by Senator Burton and

Millions Of Dollars Kept Out Of
State by Selfish Property
Holders
BEEN IDLE FOR MONTHS
Tillamookers Are Still Holding up
Work on the Pacific Railway and
Navigation Company But Are
Handicapped.

Will the entire summer Of 1908
pass away without accomplishment Of
anything ID the way OF completing
the many important railroad projects
now under way in 0rcgons II be
gins 10 look that way, and the very
people who will be most directly
benefited are the ones who are re-
sponsible for the delays, says the
Portland Telegram.
The matter has really reached a
serious stage, and practically no pre-.
liminary or construction work is be-
ing done on four distinct big pro-
jects, one steam and the other three
electrical The aggregate expendi-
ture involved runs into the millions,
and the money is on hand to be put
to use. Yet it is idle, has been idle
for months, and indications are that
il will live idle for months to come.
The four projects referred to are:
The Oregon Electric Company's
extension from Portland to Hills
boro.
The Mount Hood Railway & Power
Company line into Portland
The United Railways line from
Portland to Forest Grove and Hills
boro.
The Pacific Railway & Navigation
Company's line from Portland to Til.
lamook.
The one great obstacle in the way
Of pushing the plans OF these corpora
tons to immediate completion is the
obstructionist tactics Of property
owners along the proposed rights Of
way. More deplorable still is the fact
that in each instance only mere hand
ful OF property-owners has been able
to delay progress for months. In the
case Of the Oregon Electric line, just
TO property-owners have been sue
cessful in forcing the company to
abandon all work, have compelled the
company to remove the steel and
other material already on the ground
and the throwing OF hundreds of men
out OF employment.
Each Of these men is asking more
than the company believes his prop
erty is worth, and insists that the
company erect permanent depot on
his property. This the company has
steadfastly refused to do in all cases,
on the ground that It feels better able
to Judge where the prospective traffic
conditions will require stations and
gdeposts, both freight and passenger.
This matter, the company maintains,
Is governed entirely by the rapidity
Of development Of the various sec
tons tapped by the road,
No work Of any Importance has
been done on the uncompleted road
to Tillamook, the Pacific Railway &
Navigation Company. President Lytle
when the financial furry came last
fall, abandoned work from this end,
and during the winter his right-of-
way men did their level best to se-
cure certain STRIPS Of property needed
near T'illamook, but the property
owners and business interests over

SCENE WITHIN COLISEUM RE PEATED THAT OF TUESDAY
IN MAGNITUDE AND BRILLIANCY OF ITS SPEcTAcU-
LAR FEATURES-TAFTS STRENGTH BECOMING MORE
APPARENT AS THE DAY ADVANCES

CHICAGO, June 1.-THE conven-
ton opened at 1919 o'clock p. m, but
as the report Of the committee on
credentials was not ready there en-.
sued long interval, during which
bands played and there were parades
and the marching Of clubs to the hall
Chairman Lodges reference tc
Roosevelt caused demonstration oi
4 minutes duration and there was
wonderful excitement; the presence
Of the Teddy Bear" which was
tossed around the hall kept the Wild
est enthusiasm up.
The committee on credentials will
make no changes from the action
taken by the national committee.
The second day OF the republican
national convention has brought the
long expected Roosevelt yell and
whirlwind which ragged within the
vast amphitheatre of the Coliseum for
fully 4 minutes today, and for time
presenting to the timid spectre of the
Roosevelt stampede, This demonstra-
ton was decidedly the feature of the
day otherwise not able for stirring
speech from the permanent chairman
of the convention, Senator Lodge for
the much political procedure, in the
placing of the convention on a
smooth running basis and for the
final defeat of the plan to reduce the
representation of the southern states
at the future national conventions.
Probably the most important act Of
the day and one having the greatest
significance in the final result of the
convention was the adoption OF the
final report of the committee on
credentials, seating the Taft dele
gates practically in the total If there
has been any lingering doubt Of the
doubt Of the Taft strength it has dis
appeared before this recisive action,
which in effect placed more than 700
delegates in the Taft column,
An equally important and even
more remarkable was the final ac-
ceptance Of this result BY the
"Allies" without the formality Of dis
senting the minority report and
without carrying the question to the
floor of the convention for an open
fight which has been so long threat
ened, Instead all the further opposi-
ton seemed to crumble and thus the
path was cleared for the fulilment of
the plans already matured for the
nomination Of head of the ticket, The
favorites still have, however, their
bands of steadfast supporters who
will show their loyalty when the first
ballot IS taken, The scene within the
Coliseum today repeated that OF yes
terday in the magniture and brilliancy
Of its spectacular features Again
every seat was occupied and $4,000
people packing the floors and isles
and galleries and the platform joined
in the ebb and flow Of the agitation
and enthusiasm. Temporary Chair
man Burrows called the convention
to order at 1920 but the delays Of the
committees in reporting gave an hour
for the diversion before the serious
work Of the day began
Lodge spoke with that resonant
New England twang which made it
