PENDLE7ON 7OAAVE PEACE ORGANIZATION

A meeting Of the citizens of Pen
dleton is called for o'clock tonight
at the parlors of the Commercial as
sociation for the purpose Of taking
preliminary steps in the organization

dustrial Peace association.
P. H. Scullin and w. F. Collins of

ated under the California laws on

jects the settlement of labor disputes

HAS ROYAL BLOOD.
Bowling Alley Man Finds That He
Has High-up Folks.


Spokane, Wash. Jan. 14.-John
Roberts, prospector in the United
States, Canada and Alaska for 20
years, who until recently managed a
bowling alley at wardner, Ida, and
now has charge of a moving picture
show at Kellogg, east of here, will
be Sir Normal Brandon Bart, upon
the death of his mother, now living
at Nottingham, England, and his In
come from the estate will be $10,0
a year.
This came to light when he applied
to the county clerk at Wallace for a
licence to wed Miss Anita Thompson
Of Pennington, daughter of w. H.
Thompson, superintendent of the wa
ter system on the Oregon Railroad &
Navigation company's line, stationed
at Tekoa, Wash. Roberts, taking
the name of Norman Brandon, and
Miss Thompson, were married in the
parlors of the Kellogg hotel a few
days ago. The groom's father was
Jos. Roberts, whose forefathers were
cotton manufacturers and dyers IN
England, while his mother was Edith
Brandon, his aunt being lady-in-walt-
ing to the late Queen Victoria. The
future Lady Brandon is a typical
western girl, though educated in an
eastern school, and is as much at
home on the back of broncho as
she is in a drawing room. She is
fond of music, boating and outdoor
sports and is comely and vivacious.

Portland is after the congressional
nomination from the second Oregon
district and has announced the name
OF George S. Shepherd for that place.
Mr.. Shepherd was defeated in the
primary election two years ago by
Congressman W. r. Ellis of this city
and the same fate is thought to be
in store for him at the coming pri-
mary election this spring.
Mr.. Shepherd is a lawyer and ex-
president of the Portland city coun-
ell, but is not known outside Of Port
land, where all his interests lie. He
is strictly a Portland attorney and is
perhaps as little familiar with east
ern Oregon as any other man in the
Oregon metropolis.
Mr.. Shepherds reason for entering
the race is that he believes 1t is about
time that Multnomah county send
representative to congress and that
Portland being a river and harbor
town would stand more chances Of
securing river and harbor appropri-
ations had she a representative at
Washington to urge her claims.
The chief plank in the platform
which he announces, is 40 feet Of
water on the Columbia river bar, a
subject for which Congressman Ellis
is working diligently although he
lives in eastern Oregon.
Mr.. Shepherd has been a resident
of oregon since 1876, but is abso-
lutely unknown in this part of the
state. He has been a sailor and be-
lieves that he has a greater familiar
ity with the needs of the sea coast
cities than either T. T. Geer or Con-
gresham w. r. Ellis, both Of whom
are dry land candidates.
Congressman Ellis defeated Shep-
herd in the primaries of 1906 by
200S votes, but Mr. Shepherd attrib-
ltes ris refeat at that time to the
fact that he did not. enter the race
until late in the season and was
therefore handicapped by his small
acquaintance and short time in which
to meet the people of the district.

lie. and was living at Hilyard.

New York, Jan. 1.-THE Thaw
case opened this morning in the
hands Of the defense. DR.. John r.
T. Deemar, who has been the Thaw
family physician for many years. was
the first witness called by Attorney
Littleton.
Through Deemar, Littleton expects
to prove that as a child and a boy
Thaw was a "wild-eyed, distant boy"
erratic and unreliable.
From this point he will take up
each period of the young mans life
and trace its uncertain windings.
laying bare much that was hidden
by Delmas in the first battle and ex-
posing to the world much that Thaw
had hoped to keep forever buried.
Harry Thaw entered the court
room looking more depressed than
usual. He does not like the ruthless
display Of his deficiencies. Evelyn
was excluded from the court room
this morning with the other wit
nesses.
DIR. Deemar was questioned by
Littleton. The witness said that
when Thaw was child he was ner-
vous and victim of st. Wits dance.
He declared that a brother Of Mrs.
Thaw was an imbecile six years be-
fore his death.
Jerome objected when Littleton
started to go into the condition of
John Ross, a son of Mrs. Thaw's
sister and this line of examination
was closed.
Jerome ross-questioned Deemar
closely but brought out nothing of
value.
DR.. William F. Butler of Roanoke,
Va, was the next witness. He testi-
fled to the condition of Horace Thaw,
a son of the first Mrs. William Thaw,
while he was at the state hospital for
the insane. Jerome fought the in
PRODUCTION of this evidence, but lost
the battle and Butler testified that
Horace Thaw was mentally incompe-
tent
