JAMES \. RALEY
NOT IN THE RACE
PIONEER ATTORNEY IS
URGED FOR CONGRESS.
Hope of Friends That Colonel james
H.. Raley Might Be Induced to Be
come Candidate for Congress,
Shattered by His Refusal to Con-
slider the Matter Under Any Cir
cumstances.

A new and interesting feature was
introduced into the congressional
race in this district last evening when
it was announced by friends Of Col
onel James H. Raley of this city, that
he would be induced to stand for the
democratic nomination.
Already Congressman w. r. Ellis
and T. T. Geer, both of this city. are
candidates and with Colonel Raley in
the field for the democratic nominal
tion. Pendleton promised to be the
center of attraction in the congress
sional contest.
However, the prospects for a DEM
ocratic candidate from this city we're
rudely annihilated this morning,
when, in an interview with the East
oregonian. Colonel Raley positively
declined to become a candidate under
any circumstances or conditions and
refused to have his name connected
in the remotest manner with the
question.
'I have never thought of such a
thing, and while 1 highly appreciate
the kindly sentiments OF my friends
in the matter I must assure them
now, once for all, that under no cir
would I consider such
move. l am too busy with private
business to give any thought to the
matter, whatever"

HER WEALTH AvMLs HER NOT.
Mother Of Harry X. Thaw Lies Ill
With Grief. Fear, Love and Dispair
and Relief Cannot be Bought.

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan surrounded
by everything that money can buy,
except the freedom of her son. Har-
ry Kendall Thaw, who is again on
trial for the murder of Stanford
White, and the domestic unhappiness
of her daughter Alice, who has ap-
piled for notification of her mar
riage of her actor-nobleman husband,
the Earl of Yarmouth, Mrs. William
Thaw is lying so i'll at her luxurious
that she is unable to travel, and ply
sicians predict that she will be un-
able to attend her sons second trial.
Intimate friends say her heart is
being crushed by augmeRting weight
of trouble and sorrows. She jour
neyed to Michigan last summer in
search of convalescence, but the trip
was fruitless, and since her return
she has been constantly growing
worse.
There is a limit to human endur-
ance, and intimate friends say that
in the elder Mrs. Thaw's case the cli-
max has been reached.
For years she lived with all the ease
and comfort that her husbands mil
lions could provide, Then she was
plunged suddenly into sorrow by his
untimely death. The disposition OF
his, millions had hardly been settled
before Harry Traw began his esca-
pades. Small-szed fortunes were
given him to pay his way out of diff
ficulties, Then same Evelyn Nesbit
the beautiful chorus girl and artists
model. The young millionaire's moth
er worked strenuously to prevent this
marriage to her, but she failed. Then
came Stanford Whites murder. This
was followed by the Countess Of Var
mouths arrival at her brothers trial,
when she unburdened herself to her
mother and intimated that things were
not as they should be between her
and her husband.
The blow that crushed Mrs. Thaw's
spirits came with the announcement

Blnck List for The Dalles.

A correspondent at The Dalles says:
Two drastic ordinances governing the
saloon business are before the city
council One has for its purpose to
restrain saloonmen from allowing mi
nors to enter Their places of business.
Not only are malt and vinous liquors
prohibited from being sold to minors,
but also hard cider or soft drinks.
The other ordinance prescribes that
saloonists cannot sell to habitual
drunkards when a written request has
been placed by guardian or a police
officer in the hands of a saloonman.
The ordinance, II passed, will es-
tablish the drunkards' blacklist in

New York, Jan. THE examina-
tion OF the veniremen' In the Thaw
case commenced this morning at
1922.
According to a statement made in
Pittsburg by Mrs. Holman, neither
the mother OF Evelyn Thaw. Howard
Nesbit, nor Ida Simonton will testi-
fy in the present Thaw trial.
Nothing would please me better
than a verdict of not guilty in this
trial." said Mrs. Holman. "Evelyn's
happiness is mine and 1t would be al
most unnatural for a mother TO aid
in sending her own daughters hus-
band to the electric chair"
The Jurors entered the court room
with faces wreathed in smiles, but
why, no one knew. A few minutes
later Thaw advanced towards his seat
and chatted with Attorney Peabody.
Time was consumed in calling the
names of the veniremen. Those who
did not respond were fined $3.50 a
piece.
Josiah Thaw was the only member
of the Thaw family present besides
the defendant. NJ. H. Thayer. a con-
,tactor, was being examined when
Evelyn entered and greeted her hus-
band with smiles Thayer was dis
qualified for bias.
Just prior to this counsel for both
sides asked for the dismissal of jur-
ors five and six.
Before the noon adjournment z.
G. Goss, an accountant, was accept
ed as the fifth juror. At 2;20 the
examination was resumed.

LOCAL CH|NEE

UNG-ON HAD NO CERTTFT-
CATE, MUST BE DEPoRTED
Cottonwood Street Laundryman Paid
Visit TO Old Home, Remained Over
Time Limit and Smuggled Himself
Back Into the Home OF the Free
and Land OF the Brave, Contrary
TO Uncle Sans immigration Laws.

Because Ung-on, the Cottonwood
street Chinese laundryman. has no
certificate permitting him to reside
In the land OF Uncle Sam. he must
be depcrted. Notice to this effect
was given him today by John B.
Sawyer. deputy in the immigration
buraiu, who came here to locate Ung.
Ung has conducted a laundry in
Pendleton for IL years and his trou-
BILE arises from the fact that he made
a trip to China and did not return in
time to redeem his certificate. He
left in 1894 and left his certificate
at an immigration office in one OF
the sound cities. Under the law he
was permitted to remain away but a
year and had he returned he could
have again secured his certificate.
But Ung remained away several
years and when he returned he snug
gled himself into the country.
When first questioned today by
Mr.. Sawyer, who was assisted by
Deputy Sheriff Bert Wilson in find
ing his man. Ung denied being the
man they wanted. But when his old
certificate with his photograph ac-
companying 1t was shown him he
weakened.
Under the law there Is no alterna-
tive but to deport the Chinaman and
this the officers declare will be done.
However he may secure further time
for hearing by giving $500 bail, and
this he is now attempting to secure.
