EVANGELIST CREATES
GREAT SENSATION.
Calls Oregon City Lawyers Warts,
Doctors Murdercrs and Other
wise EnliVens Things.

One is apt to wonder what kind
OF place Oregon City, up Clacka-
mas county is. An evangelist has
been making his headquarters there
for the past month and during his
stay brought S25 persons to the
mourner's bench, The last issue of
the Enterprise OF that city gives the
following account of his meetings
shannon has created a fearful stir
during his stay here. His biting
tongue has caused hundreds OF
people to heap eXecrations upon
him. and he has spared no creed,
race or color. At every service in
the First Baptist Church, great
crowds have been present and last
Sunday night. which was to have
been the final meeting the church
was packed TO the doors.
The evangelist made vicious at
tacks on the merchants and pro-

that the lawyers were warts" and
the merchants were moral lepers
who had no use for the people,
aside from the money that came
out of their pockets. Shannon walk

The Shannon meetings are racy
in the extreme. They have even
drawn the people away from the

gone out of his way to abuse the
members of other churches, and
assailed the Catholics, Congrega-
tionalists and the Episcopalians.

said, ARE good on Sunday though
during the week they drink beer,
play cards and dance.
Shannon has some pet phrases
The words hell" and damn" are
used frequently. The term OF

| to shannon, and he delights In
"skiddo." Last Sunday night he
called Mrs. Eddy, the head of the

goslin. He urged his helpers not tC
"lolygag" over a young man in the
audience, who was a possible candi

society women to a crisp, and saiC
some of them had SIS hats on fiv'

Shannon said: when | go t,

OREG0NIAN NOTICES
GROWTH OF CITY
Gives Write-up Containing Well
Known Facts Showing
Our Development.

In Monday OreBonlan tne loIIOW-
ing terse statement OF conditions in
this thriving city and community
appears:
The general growth of Josephine
county was never better than now;
all of which has been accomplished
by constant united effort and push
of its citizens. The fruit industry
o. Rogue River Valley has been
greatly aided by the organization of
the Rogue River Fruit Exchange
with headquarters at this place.
The Exchange is disposing of this
years crop of apples at top figures
to buyers in Chicago, New York, Lon
don, Liverpool and Honolulu.
The grading and packing is being
done on the most scientific basis.
The manager of the organization
states that it is impossible to supply
the demands for good fruit.
owing to the increased interest,
the Fruitgrowers Exchange will
have to erect another warehouse
along the side of the present struct-
ure next year. Many new orchards
will come into bearing, bringing de-
mands for an increase OF facilities
for handling fruit. The trees
planted during 1907 and 1903 run
up into several hundred acres.
The members of the Exchange are
also benefited by hearing under its
auspices men of learning and ability
who are brought here to speak upon
the various topics in which grow
ers are interested.
The windows of the business
houses are filled with liberal dis
plays of choice fruit which has been
placed on exhibition for the purpose
of showing the fruit grown in this
district.
Many new houses and business
blocks are going up in Grants Pass.
The growth in the country has also
kept pace, particularly in Fruitdale
Valley, where the land has been sub
divided into vineyards and orchards
until the population has Increased
from two to three times its former
number All of these newcomers
have built homes of their own.
With the citys growth there
comes a demand for better facilities
to meet the wants of the people and
to provide for this, the Rogue River
Electric & Southern Oregon Com
pany has asked for franchise, which
was granted at the last Council
meeting, to construct an electric line
along f. street and down Sixth street
to connect with its suburban route
to the Illinois Valley; in order to
hold this franchise the company
must begin work within nine months
and on or before Is months have
completed 10 miles of road outside
OF the city limits,
Moving along these lines OF pub
lac transportation there has been a
better tendency Ior good roads with
laterals. In order to bring about
the movement in good form a con
vention Tor that purpose will meet
here November 2S, when Judge John
IL. Scott of Salem will speak upon
the subject.
This meeting will be supported by
the business men, who have prom
ised to close their places for the
afternoon. This county has in some
instances the best roads in Southern
Oregon, with cement crossings and
culverts
To advertise the city picture has
been painted on a canvass AZ by u
inches. This will be sent to the AL
aska- -Yukon-Paciic Exposition, after
which It will be placed upon the
walls of the Commercial Clut
rooms.

b. This is an admission ~ failure.
The democratic party will strike
down special privileges whether
granted through a high protective
tariff or granted to government
chartered corporations by permits
sion of law.
The only sort of legislation with
any great force of public opinion
behind 1t that the corporation par
ty attempted to enact was bill
to prevent the reoccurrance OF
panic. The last panic was de-
pcsitors' panic, brought about by
fear upon the part of the depositors
that they could not get back their
money which had been left in the
bank. The republican party has
attempted to prevent the recurrance
.. depositors' panics by an emer-
Urgency bank note bill in the pro-
visions Of which they have decreas-
ed the security that the deDositor
had in a two fold way. frst by re-
| ducing the amount Of reserve reQuir
ed by law to be held and secondly
by making the new emergency note
a prior lein upon all the assets OF
| the bank, and increasing the bank
liabilities that might be charged
against deposits.
The press has told us in what
seemed to be semi-official statement
| from the White House that the pres
| dent was SO inters upon his poll
/ cies that if congress adjourned
without enacting them into law he
would call an extra session. Con
gress did adjourn, leaving unpassec
most OF his favored measures and

has been done to give the wage
Garner fair treatment and less than
nothing is offered him in the Chi
cago deliverance. The meaning
less generalities of its injunction
plank are an insult to the intelli-
gence of those who demand legis-
lation to prevent the admitted abuse
OF this judicia! process.
Democracy blazed the way and
now remains the unflinching cham
pion Of every sound reform in this
direction.
Immunity from the law we prom
Use nobody; immunity from oppres-
sion, from its very infancy, the
democratic party has been dedicat-
ed to establish and secure.
The Tariff.
The president and his party de-
clare that a prediction revision OF
the tariff would be unwise.
| This assertion has been repeated
! in advance of every election sine,
the enactment of the Dingley law
and surely the country will no
again be deceived by republican
promises to revise the tariff aftel
J the election.
The president himself has said:
"I am of the opinion that on
change in the tariff could with ad
vantage be made forthwith"
What was the fruit of this rec
cmmendation? In the house a com
mittee was appointed to investigat
the subject This was a scheme t
muddy the water; to placete tn
newspapers and to excuse nom &C
