STEAMERS FOR UPPER SNAKE.
Rough Has Reached Here and An
other Is En- Route.

The steamer Rough reached Lew
iston last night from Riparia and
will in a short time be installed in
the freight service on the upper
Snake river.
A recent canvass of the upper
river country shows large amount
of general freight to be taken to
the upper river country. and the in
stallation of a regular service will
create heavy freight business from
the mines and stock ranches Of that
section.
The steamer may also be engaged
in handling a portion of the business
for the West Coast Portland Cement
company. which contemplates a
heavy freight traffic from the Lime
Point section, where the cement
properties are now being developed.
A second boat is expected to reach
Lewiston tonight in charge OF Capt.
Ralph aughman. and 1T is understood
this craft will also be placed In serv-
ice on the upper river.

One remarkable feature of the Ore

voting continuance of the policy.
The question of prohibition was

list convention held at Orofino, was

If possible, a correction of the report

that socialists and anarchists had
torn down the stars and stripes and
N their place had unfurled the red
flag of anarchy to the breeze.

the decorators, which / trust you
may be willing to publish for us in
full, and also permit me to state
that not single red flag floated for
or within it. Old glory (stars and
stripes) was, however, raised to the
breeze, and inside the hall eight
small stars and stripes were used as
interior decorations. Our party COL

These flags were placed OF our
own free will and volition. We are

the stars and stripes? There We're
no anarchists there. Most respect
fully yours, FRANK E. PARKYN.
Accompanying the above was the
following report Of the committee as
to the dissertation Of the flag. the re-
port being in the form of a resolu-
tion adopted by the socialist conven-
ton:
1--WE, rthe socialists of Nez Perez
county, in convention assembled, do
request the people at large to give
us fair and impartial hearing on
the matter of the tearing down Of
the flags and bunting, with which
we were charged by some party or
parties. and the matter published in
the Lewiston papers (The Teller
and the Tribune).
"Now, the facts in the case are as
follows: The decorating committee
had commenced to decorate and, 1t
being Sunday, we could not get into
the stores to get any flags, and we
simply decorated above the bunting
and left 1t intact, and there being
lodge meeting intervening, we left
of decorating until the morning of
tho convention. and in the meantime
there was bunting torn down. but by
whom we do not know. We en-
phatically deny any responsibility
for the act. We as citizens honor
and respect the stars and stripes as
our national banner. and condemn
the acts of dissertation by whomso-
ever committed. he they republican.

cialists, respect and honor the red
flag Of International socialism as the
emblem Of universal brotherhood.
but 1t Is characteristic Of a certain
element of people to try to work
some little coarse undermined
game to throw discredit on the So
cialists."

MUDD OPPOSES TAFT.
War Is Declared I'm the Maryland
Republican Camp.

Baltimore, April 29.-Open warfare
has broken out in the Maryland re-
publican camps, on the even of the
state convention, which will be held
in Baltimore tomorrow. The indorse-
ment of Taft is the issue over which
the party leaders are quarreling, and
the efforts for and against such ac-
tion will likely lead to the hottest
battle ever known in a Maryland po.
litical convention. Congressman
Sydney E. Mudd is the leader of the
anti-Taft men and was responsible for
the introduction and passage by the
state central committee of a resolu-
ton favoring an uninstructed delega.
tion to Chicago.
The resolution declared that the
committee believed that the repub-
licans of Maryland now, as at the
time of the last state convention, in
dorse the policies of President Roose-
welt and demand as his successor zone
who can be trusted to persevere in
those policies"
Representative Mudd Is known to
favor the nomination of Speaker Jo-
seph G. Cannon for president. Cam
non men say that Mudd will control
IL of the 16 Maryland delegates, and
that they will probably vote for Can
non in the national convention, al
though 1t is Mudd's object to get an
uninstructed delegation. There is al
so considerable sentiment among
Maryland republicans for Governor
Hughes.

Portland, Me-, April 2s.-Support-

strong fight in Maine to secure the
selection of national convention dele
gates favorable to the nomination Of
the Ohio man. and with fair chances
of success. The instruction question
has not assumed such proportions in
Maine as in other New England
states and it would not come as a sur

held here tomorrow. should come out
openly for Taft. The Third and
Fourth district conventions are being
held today, at Waterville and Bangor,
respectively. and are expected to elect

the First district will be held here to-
morrow, in connection with the state
gathering. The Second district con-

Santa Barbara, Califs April 29.-
Indignant sailors from the Atlantic
fleet wrecked a saloon restaurant be-
longing to John Senich this morning.
They smashed the window glasses,
beer bottles and made the inside of
the place look like it had been struck
by a tornado.
Senich is one Of the local saloon
men who has been charging the SAIL
ors so cents a bottle for beer and 25
cents for sandwiches.
It took but a few minutes to wreck
the joint. Midshipmen and a squad
of naval police quickly arrived and
arrested abe sailors.
Feeling is running high among both
civilians and sailors as the sailors
have been charged shameful prices
for inferior goods while here. The
damage will amount to about 5000.
The men had been controlled with
difficulty all yesterday because of
frequent outbursts of anger over ex-
Orbitant prices and the treatment
which they had received from shop
keepers of the place. Today groups
OF angry sailors are congregating
along the water front and the provost
guard and naval police is being
strengthened in order 90 prevent an
other outbreak.
Trouble started in the Senich res
taurant when sailors were charged Sc
for supper. The men paid, then
spread the news of their treatment
In a short time there was a crowd
about the place and after removing
all American flags from the building
they rushed It and within a few min.
utes made a wreck of the place.
SUBSCRIPTION lists were opened to-
day on the fleet for the purpose of
raising money to buy Los Angeles a
fountain in appreciation OF
the splendid treatment the men re-
cefved while there. Each enlisted
man will contribute H'25 cents.
