Contestants Hold Back Votes
Every Island Has A Favorite
Candidates For Chaperone
Honors

More than seventy thousand votes
Popular Voting Contest between
Thursday at p. m. and the same
time on Saturday of last week.
The second count did not change
the leadership as recorded In the
first count, but, with one exception,
the biggest gains were made by can
didates who are not at The top of
the voting lists. Miss Pangelinan.
District 1, seemingly decided to
make a demonstration of power, and
sent in a total of thirty thousand
votes. Miss Johnson, her nearest
rival. increased her total considera-
bly,, as did Miss Mary McCabe. There
is another candidate in this district
who will be heard from vigorously
| soon.
This count indicates the interest
that the people Of the outside is
lands are taking in the contest for
the choice of chaperone, as well
as for the trip contestants from the
several districts.
| Every one of the islands has a
favorite candidate that the people
think should chaperone the party,
and they are beginning to center
their support to one of these women
in their various districts. Mrs.
Siemson of Hilo, second among the
candidates for chaperone, is only a
few thousand votes behind Mrs.
Zeave, and Mrs. Siemson in turn Is
closely followed by several other
candidates, who may be able to Sc
cure first or second place In the next
count.
The contest in District 2, as in
District J., Is by no means one
sided affair. Hawaii has good list
Of good people, and the subscribers
In that district are distributing their
votes almost equally among them.
An average OF three letters contain
ing votes for the candidates on Ha-
wall were received by the Mauna
Kea mail.
1t can be confidently expected that
the third week of the vote issue will
make some decided changes in the
totals and standing of the candi-
dates on Maui and Kauai. The con-
testants on these two Islands have
been holding back over half of their
votes, but now that they all know
their district opponents, 1t is a safe
assertion that several of them will
try and make a showing in the next
two counts.
Surprise in District l.
There Is surprise in store fol
the leaders in District / that is no,
shown by the past counts, and q
candidate who appears to be scarce
ly in the race declares she will soor
make a jump that will place her al
or near the top.
All of the contestants are work
ing to lead, and their cndeavors arr
certain to bring results. If you OIL
four friend is near the top of the
list, don't stop your vote canvass
Take advantage of the start, ant
keep up the race with the same en-
thusiasm.
Just Keep I'm the Work.
Likewise there is no reason fol
any of the candidates to be discour

the list gained their positions by {

is only one time to be so confident
Of your position that you need not
continue y'ur canvass, and that is
when the contest is closed. No one
can tell the probable leaders until
the contest is over, so resolve t.
keep up your endeavor.
Keep Vote Reserve q Secret.
Don't tell what your vote reserve
Is to any of the other candidates.
and to very few of your friends.
Strategy is required in an affair of
this kind, and one of your strategies
Is secrecy in regard to how many
votes you have in reserve. You
may depend on it, that the contest
manager will not tell, SO far as he
may know your number OF votes
from the recorded vote issue.
You will find that he is like a
sphinx when 1t comes to securing
from him information about the
other candidates.
How Votes Are Issued.

test and want to see her win, send
in your subscription to the B :
'letin and get your friends to do
the same. few subscriptions will
place your favorite candidate SO
high in the count that many who
do not know the lady will commence
| to help her, as they wish to cast
their votes for one who, 1t appears.
has a chance to win.

that nominations are closed forever
more, so far as this contest is con-
cerned. The nominations are not

last day of the contest.

Does it pay?" 1t would not be true
to human nature for party or-any
considerable number of people to con-
tinue 40 years endeavor on behalf of
someone else when the same effort
and time would make money for self.
And 80 today, the Negro is left to
hustle for himself. 1t is trial long
deferred, but one that had to come
some day, and today is as good as
any. Our Lne desire now is that the
Republican party recognize that
We still cast considerable vote for
it, that we are still an essential to its
success in national elections, and
sometimes in local and state elec-
tions, and as such an element Of party
strength, regardless Of our color, we
deserve consideration. Let Southern
states rob us Of our rights! Let law
less communities burn and slay us
for unproven crimes! Such injustices
are Gods way Of strengthening the
weak, and weakening the strong
What we want is for the Republican
party to take strong grip on such
Negroes in the day Of triumph as it
leaned upon in the day Of trial. Let
us, too, stand in the strong sunlight
of victory! Let not the cry Of De-
mocracy that we are unworthy tempt
our president and our party leaders
to treat us as pariahs
While we have no great dissatisfac-
ton with the work Of Congress, the
attitude Of the party as a whole af-
fects our votes on all officers. For
this reason, Notwithstanding we are
proud of our party's work in Con-
gress, we call the attention of party
leaders to the necessity Of giving
Negro Republicans some real return
for their party work. Most Of all We
would like beneficial legislation that
would guarantee to US our rights Of
property and life. But the time for
that has passed. Maybe 1t is better
so. Yet fear of opposition opinion
should not prevent us getting a
square deal in purely party work. We
deserve our "quid pro quo and we
believe our party thinks the better Of
us because We know our rights In
that regard and are resolved to fight
for them.

Decks are Being Cleared
for Next Election

Congress is over. Beginning with
the most difficult problem of the tariff,
it continued amid a storm of regular
ity and insurgency. Among other
things which it did were:
Striking revision of the railroad
laws, including the creation of COM
merce court.
Admitting Arizona and New Mexico
as separate states.
Authorizing the establishment of
postal savings banks.
Giving to the president unlimited
authority to withdraw public lands for
conservation purposes.
Providing for publicity of campaign
contributions.
Authorizing the issue of $4,000, 900
in certificates Of Indebtedness to COM
plete reclamation projects.
Creating bureau Of mines.
Extending the activities of the tariff
board and appropriating $250,O00 for
its use.
Looking to the suppression of the
white slave" traffic.
Creating a commission to consider
economies in the administration of the
federal government.
Authorizing the entry Of surface of
coal lands.
Providing a tariff system for the
Philippines.
Legislation that ultimately is ex-
pected to give prohibition to the Ha-
waiian islands.
No Republican need be ashamed Of
his party with such showing. True
we have not done all we promised to
do, not all that should be done. But
so long as progress in morals and
business is the rule of life. we may
not hope to reach ideal government.
The Republican party has succeeded
IN doing more toward real representa-
tive government, toward real reform
than Democracy with its mouth full
Of profession and not one consider
able commendable practice to its
credit. 1t was Democratic votes united
with equally selfish Republican votes
tina: gave us the tariff measure. the
one disappointing piece Of legislation
of the present Congress. The Repub-
li.an party divides with Democracy
the shame of this log-rolling. Then
remember 1t was a Republican presi-
dent that fought for the real spirit Of
our party platform as to tariff.
We are not expecting all this legis-
lation to be perfect, but 1t is to be
tried by experience and made perfect.
With its record of efficiency the Re
publican, party is more to be trusted
to do this than is Democracy. This
paper has severely criticized the pres
ident and the party for its desertion
Of the Negro. We have said that its
indifference is the cause Of the en-
croachment Of Democrats upon our
rights in the South and OF the fndiRer-
ence to them here.
We still think we tell the truth. But
With It all we must in fairness say
that the party is doing toward the
Negro Just what all America is doing.
Money-madnes Is upon US. Every
measure IL tried BY the one rule

pal streets of Chicago today in the
most impressive fraternal parade ever
held in the Windy City. At the same
time. it was perhaps the most care

nurse were stationed on every block
along the route.
Today's parade was the big fea-

Knights Templar, and members of the
order from every state and territory
of the union combined to make the
event a spectacular and impressive
one. In the opinion of prominent
spectators, it will be many years be-

that the engine of the work train,

light flat cars, shunted the passenger

way through the baggage car and
caused the baggage car and the
smoker to telescope partly. Nearly
all the men in the forward part of the

SEVEN HORSES ARE
BURNED TO DEATH
JOHN ZIMMERMAN SUFFERS
A SEVERE LOSS BY FLAMES
Large Barn and All Its Contents and
Machinery Shed Consumed by Fire
Loss VIII be Between $4,000 and
S1O,OO0-Cause Is Unknown.

Seven horses We're burned to death
at the John Zimmerman place near
Helix last night in a fire which de-
stroyed the large barn with all of its
contents together with the machinery
sheds and their contents. The dam
age will amount to between $4,000
and $4,000 and Zimmerman has not
yet been able to ascertain whether or
not he carried any insurance.
The Zimmerman farm is located
about two miles east of Helix. Mr..
Zimmerman was in Pendleton yester-
day afternoon and stated this morn
ing that when he arrived home at
about o'clock in the evening, every
thing was alright and there was no
indication of the disastrous blaze
which was so soon to follow. He went
to bed Immediately and at IL o'clock
when he was aroused by the other
members of the family, the buildings
were all in flames and the heat so
intense that no one could go near
them.
OF the eight valuable work horses
stabbed in the barn but one succeeded
in breaking away and running out
The others were burned to death in
their stalls.
The barn was filled with grain hay
and also contained large number OF
bushels of this years crop of barley
With the machinery sheds there
went up in smoke, wagons, buggies
plows and other farm machinery
worth thousands of dollars.
Zimmerman is absolutely without
theory as to the cause of the blaze
and the only one advanced by anyone
is that he must have dropped a match
which smouldered in the straw un.
til after he had retired for the night
and was then famed into blaze which
quickly licked up the wooden struc-
lures and their contents.

New York, Aug. "A man suppos-
edly insane, shot Mayor Gaynor of
New York after he had boarded the
North German-Lloyd steamer Kaiser
Wilhelm der Crosse this morning and
his condition is believed to be serious.
The assailant was captured ana ta-
ken to the Hoboken police headquar-
ters. The mayor was about to start
on a months vacation in Europe.
Hoboken, Aug. 9.-Mayor Gaynor
was rushed to St. Mary's hospital af-
ter he was shot down and 1t was an

The shooting occurred just after Gay
nor had boarded the steamer Kaiser
Wilhelm at the Hoboken pier.
Gaynor was standing in the COM
panionway aboard the liner talking to
President-elect Montt of Chile and
Sonora Montt, when the assailant
crept up behind him and without
warning fired. Gaynor staggered
into the arms of his secretary, Robert
Adamson, who sprang forward at the
shot. The mayor was bleeding from
a wound in the back of the head.
with the sound of the shot passen-
gers crowding the deck turned and
saw a man with a smoking revolver
in his hand. Half a dozen men
pounced on the assailant. who fell
to the deck yelling and fighting for
another chance to'"get Gaynor." The
mans revolver was wrested from him
and he was beaten into submission
with it.

DEMOCRATS WILL
HAVE FULL SLATE
HAVE CANDIDATE FOR
ALMOST EVERY OFFICE
Recorder, Treasurer and Joint Sena-
tor Only Offices for Which Minority
Party Has no Aspirants-C. A. Bar
rett May be Endorsed.

Though the registration books indi-
cate that the republicans in Umatilla
county outnumber the democrats
about four to one, the minority party
is to have practically complete
county ticket in the field at the COM
ing election. Some have already an
nounced their candidacy while the
central committee is endeavoring to
bolster up those who are willing but
scared. No aspirants have vet ap-
peared for the offices of recorder,
treasurer or joint senator, but there
will be candidates for all the other
offices
As the following democratic aspir-
ants will probably be unopposed in
the primaries, they will undoubtedly
form the ticket for their party in the
general elections:
State Senator. DR.. c. ]. Smith (pres-
ent encumbent.)
Sheriff. T. D. Taylor, (present en-
cumbent.)
County judge, James Maloney of
Pendleton.
County Commissioner, ]. B. Lieual.

Umatilla, and Louis Scholl, Jr., may
or Of Echo.
Joint senator from Umatilla and
Morrow counties, Joe N. Scott, Athena.
Coroner. DR.. Fred Lieuallen Of Pi-
lot Rock.
1t is not fully settled that DR.. Lieu
allen will be the candidate for coro-
ner DR. Henderson, who formerly
held the office, is being talked OF
again. while If DR.. D. ]. McFaul
should announce himself a candidate
for the republican nomination it is
said that no democrat will oppose
him.
According to Chairman Peterson
of the central committee, an executive
committee has been appointed, consist
! ing of H. j. Taylor, ]. Hudemann and
Mayor E. ]. Murphy. T. ]. Tweedy
has also been named as treasurer of
the executive committee. The prim-
airy law makes provision for the ap-
! pointment of an executive committee
and other officers of the central COM
mittee.

dashed up to the pier and backed
the vessel. Gaynor, lying
on a stretcher apparently uncon-
scious, was lowered to the wharf and
placed in the hospital car which was
driven at full speed to st. Mary's
hospital. At the hospital the operat-
ing room was being made ready while
the ambulance was on the way and
Gaynor was placed on the operating
table as soon as he arrived. While
the surgeons were working over the
mayor all inquiries regarding his con-
dition remained unanswered. Once
Secretary Adamson emerged from the
room and declared his belief that
the mayors wound would not prove
fatal.
The shooting occurred on the port
side of the forward deck which was
thronged with persons bidding fare
well to departing passengers. The
shots and struggle threw them into
confusion. One of Gaynor's sons ac-
companied him to the hospital Doc
tors Struach and Meier. surgeons,
shortly after their arrival issued a
bulletin saying: "Only one bullet
struck Mayor Gaynor. The missile en-
tered the back of the head below the
ear in the region of the mastoid bone,
where it buried itself A preliminary
examination discloses the wound is
not necessarily fatal Gallagher is
being sweated. The sailing of the
Wilhelm der Crosse was delayed half
an hour
The capture was sensational The
first shot from the maddened mans
revolver struck Gaynor and two other
shots followed before Gallagher was
overpowered.

player, the street cleaning commits
sioner of New York. who was stand
ing by Gaynor was wounded by one
of the bullets. Examination showed
one of the bullets had penetrated the
fleshy part of his arm, causing a
slight wound. consultation of ten
physicians was held at l o'clock.
Gaynor was shot just as newspaper
photographers were taking farewell
pictures of him. Look pleasant,
please" laughingly commanded the
| picture men and the mayor smiled.
AS though an echo to the words a
shot rang out and Gaynor staggered
into Adamson's arms. AS he was be-
ing carried to the hospital he gasped
! to the secretary: Tell the people
good bye" Seeing the distress his
words caused, the mayor added: 81
don't mean just that. l guess there
! is plenty of fight left in me. Who
did it?"
When Gallagher was registered al
police headquarters he begged to re-
tain his pipe and tobacco and tin to-
bacco box. The police took them
away, fearing he might commit sui
eide. Gallagher laughed and said:
"Oh. 1 amt going to try the Dutch
act"
