VATICAN SEES ATTEMPT
AGAINST SPANISH CROWN

ROME, Aug. THE feeling at the
Vatican today is optimistic. Hope is
entertained that an understanding with
the Spanish government will soon be
reached. 1t is pointed out by the Vat
lean that Premier CanalejaS must be
grateful to the papacy for restraining
it's followers from disorders, which
might have led to civil war.
The Vatican and Cardinal Merry del
Val, the papal secretary, personally in
structed the bishops throughout Spain
to prevent demonstrations. and disor-
ders.
Another reason for the conciliatory
attitude of the Vatican is found in
the fact that organizers Of the pro-
posed demonstration are for the most
part Carlists and any movement might
eventually take on a Revolutionary and
anti-dynastic character, which the Vat
lean is determined shall be absolutely
exclusive from the present situation.

EIGHT AvIAT0RS START
IN RACE OF 485 MILES
Pilots Steer Through Haze by
Compass at Full Speed

PARIS, Aug. flight aviators
started at daylight today in the great
485-mile cross-country race, and to-
night six of them had covered the first
stage of the journey to Troyes, SIS miles
from the starting point.
Following each other at five-minute
intervals the aeroplanes rose and after
swinging for a moment over the city
proceeded at full speed in the direction
of Troyes. Because of the haze and
the difficulty of locating landmarks
the pilots steered by compass
Several army officers, who were not
allowed to take part officially in the
race, made the cross-country fight to
Troyes from various stations. They
declare their intention of following the
race to the end.

OREGON|AN EDITOR
DIES IN HOSPITAL
Harvey w. Scott Passes Away
After an Operation in
Baltimore

PORTLAND, Ore, Aug. 7.-Harvey
W. Scott, editor Of the Oregon1an, died
at Baltimore, Md, this afternoon.
Heart failure was the direct cause of
death.
Mr.. Scott underwent an operation at
Johns Hopkins hospital yesterday. Fol
lowing the operation it was announced
Mr.. Scott's condition was entirely ia
vorable. The telegram telling of his
death came as a surprise.
Mr.. Scott left Portland July 2S to
have the operation performed. His
last illness dated back several months,
but that the malady was liable to be
fatal was not fully realized until a
few months ago, or shortly after his
return from the meeting of the As
ISOLATED Press in New York in April
At this time he was seized with
fainting spell while talking in the
lobby of a local hotel A few days
later he was taken to a hot spring in
Eastern Oregon, it being the impress
sion that his trouble was of a rheu-
matte nature.
ADVISES OPERATION
Although Mr. Scott derived little
benefit from the treatment at the hot
springs, his condition showed a graft
flying improvement during the weeks
that followed his return to Portland.
The organic affection remained, how
ever, and Mr.. Scott's family physician
advocated an operation which would
relieve this and possibly permit his
complete recovery.
The operation was a delicate one to
perform, and in order that the best
medical skill be available, Mr.. Scout
was taken to Baltimore. where on
Saturday the operation took place.
Harvey Winfield Scott, editor-in-
chief of the Morning Oregonian, MEM
ber of the board of directors of the As
ISOLATED Press, and one Of the fore
most journalists in this country. was
born near Peoria, ILL.,, February 1,
1885,
His father, a farmer by pursuit, mi
grated to Oregon territory in 1852 with
his family, and year later to point
near Olympia, Washington territory.
Mr. Scott's youth was spent as a
laborer on his fathers farms, except
two years that he served as a militia
man during 1855-56 against the In
dians, Mr.. Scott in 1857 travelled on
foot from his home on Puget sound
to Forest grove, Oregon, a distance of
nearly 200 miles, to attend Pacific col
lege. He worked his way through
college.
After he graduated in 1864 he was at
tracted to the gold fields in Idaho,
where he spent year working as a
miner and sawmill hand.
He returned to Portland and studied
a law for a couple of years, support
ing himself from his earnings as Ii
brarian of the Portland library.
He secured a job on the Oregonian,
then owned by Henry L. Pittock, In
1867, and entered into. partnership with
Mr.. Pittock in the Oregonian, a bust
ness association which endured until
Mr.. Scott's death.

CONTEST PLOT is CHARGED
ASSOCIATED PressI

SAN SEBASTIAN, Aug. 1.-The gov~
ernment's rigorous measures and the
formal renunciation by the clerical
junta of the threatened demonstration
in this city insured comparative quiet
today and largely attended bull fight
was the chief incident OF the day.
From daybreak the streets were pa
trolled by cavalry, infantry and gen.
darmes, while heavy bodies OF troops
were held In readiness in the barracks
Of Miramir palace. The gravest Incl
dent occurred last evening, when
groups of clericals assembled shouting
Death to Spainl Long live the popeI"
Thousands of indignant people rushed
toward the manifestants, and only the
personal intervention of the governor
at the head of platoon of police pre-
vented an attack. Nearly $50 arrests
were made.
PEASANTS DIsARAIED
J Many amusing scenes were witnessed
Priests leading trudging bands of peas
ants took to their heels when they
found the city in the possession OF
troops. The peasants, all their cour-
age gone, were disarmed and easily
persuaded to return t, their homes.
The local authorities are convinced
that the clerical demonstration masked
a Carlist plot. Clericals are extremely
indignant at the governments repres-
sive measures.
Senior Urguijo, the chief organizer of
the movement, declared today that the
policy of the government was opposed
by the entire Spanish people.
"Even the queen mother Is bitterly
hostile to it," he added.
Some apprehension arose that the
bull fight would cause trouble, as there
were many thousands of manifestants
in the crowd and q large number of
them proceeded to the arena, but it
passed off without untoward incident
Official advices indicate all is quiet
| throughout the Basque provinces. All
except a few of those arrested will be

Young Cuban Party Organized
with Radical Party Modelled
After the Turks
GENERAL ALFONSO AT HEAD
National Lottery Fails to Pro-
duCe Revenue Expected
and Poor Suffer
tAssoolated Pressl

HAVANA, MOnuay, Aug. CIV lti
the adjournment of the Cuban con-
gress, after a session singularly poor
in usefulness, there sounds on all sides
the note of active preparation for the
political campaign preceding elections
to be held the first Week of November.
1t is realized that in these elections
the young republic faces the most seri-
Gus crisis that has yet confronted it.
Half the senate and half the house
of representatives are to be chosen,
together with a number of local Of
ficials. The situation is complicated
by the great number of parties, with
still others in process of formation.
YOUNG CUBANs
Among the minor parties now spring
ing into existence is that of La Jovena
Cuba, or Young Cubans, modelled, so
its leaders say, after the Young Turks,
and the party of Young Italy. Their
platform is a radical one, comprising
such planks as the adoption of the par
liamentary system of government, the
revocation of the sale of the property
of the church to the nation, which was
consummated under the MagoOn ad-
ministration; compete autonomy for
all provinces; the abolition of the army
and the creation of a national rural
guard of double the strength of the
existing body; reclamation from Spain
of the $500, 900 paid by Governor Ma
COON for the Spanish artillery remain
ing in Cuban fortresses; the reduction
of all criminal penalties by one-half,
and the substitution of the electric
chair for the garote; the prohibition
of the entrance into the republic of any
members of religious orders; the sup
preston of the secret police; prohibi-
ton of foreign corporations from ac-
quiring real estate in Cuba, and the
abolition of all trusts; adoption of the
jury system in criminal cases and re-
form of the national lottery so that all
money taken in for tickets in excess
of per cent shall be distributed in
prizes.
ALFONSO ON HAND
Gen. Manuel r Alfonso of the Army
Of Liberation appears at the head of
the new party and is prospective can
didate for president.
The estimated surplus from the ma
tional lottery falls below the amount
the government expected to get from
this source, because the steady drain
on the resources of the poor for nearly
a year has deprived them of the privi-
lege of buying more tickets.
In vain has every effort been made
to stimulate the sale of tickets, even
to the extent of subdiv:ding them so
that fractional parts can be bought for
rs cents, and multiplying the selling
agents so that even the beggars in the
streets go around hawking tickets.
Narrowing stories are told by school
teachers of children unable to go to
school for lack of shoes, and still 9TH
ers starving because every cent has
been spent in the lottery.
