Attorney Dan P. Smythe Win
Probably Be Elected as
President Tonight.
ANNUAL MEETING TO
BE HELD IN CLUB ROOMS
No Attempt to Make Out a Slate, no
Factionalism Manifest and One I'M
porant Office is Without a Candi-
date-Smythe's election Considered
as Secure Without Contest.

Dan p. Smythe, of the law firm of
Carter & Smythe, will without doubt
be elected president of the Pendleton
Commercial association at the regu-
lar annual election of officers of that
organization tonight. Not only will
he be elected but he will be the un-
animous choice in the belief of a
number Of prominent business men
and it is certain that indications point
to such an outcome. Mr.. Smythe be-
longs to the younger element of the
business world of the city. is a tire
less worker and has demonstrated
many times his ability as an organizer
so that his election as head of the
Commercial association will insure a
year of action on the part of that or
ganization.
Just who will be selected as the
other officers is not definitely known
as there has been no attempt to
make out slate, but ii is probable
that w. E. Brock will be made vice.
president. Harry Gray of Gray Bros.
grocery has been mentioned for the
secretaryship but he stated this af-
ternoon that he could not see his way
clear to becoming candidate for the
office On the board of managers, II
is very probable that a number of
the present members will be retained
DR.. c. ]. Smith and G.. NJ. Rice are
particularly mentioned for reelection.
Among others mentioned as candi-
dates for this important board are
T. G. Montgomery, cashier of the
American National bank. Attorney ].
p. Winter and A. j. McAllister of
the Pendleton Drug company.
In the absence of President w. L.
Thompson. who is a delegate of the
Good Roads association in Salem,
Nice-president Smythe will preside at
the meeting tonight which will be
called to order at o'clock.
There has been some talk for the
past few months of retaining a paid
secretary and. it is very probable that
this matter will be one of the first to
be considered by the new officers of
the association, Such an officer
would, however, in all probability be
appointed rather than elected and
have duties separate from those of the
elected secretary.

PENDLETON INSANE PATIENT
KILLED IN ASYLUM At SALEM

Hans Hansen, the young Swede
who was sent to the insane asylum
from this city on January 6, was kill
ed last Saturday morning when he
mutinied against the guards at that
institution and the news just became
public property yesterday afternoon.
1t seems from the testimony at the
inquest, ordered by the district attor-
ney on the recommendation of Su-
perintendent Steiner and the state
board. that Hansen attacked Attend
ant Kane, who called for help, that
two other attendants and another pa
tient came to the rescue and that dul =
ing the battle, Hansen was kicked so
violently in the stomach that he died
soon after.
Head Attendant William r. Kane
OF the ward where the fight occurred,
informed the coroner's jury that the
insane man attacked him shortly be-
fore o'clock and, finding that he
was unable to withstand the furious
assault, he called upon George Har-
rington, another attendant, to assist
him. Hansen got Harrington's fin
ger in his mouth and did not let go
until some person, unknown to the
witness. strangled him almost to
death.
Kane testified that Hansen was ta-
ken to strong room, locked up and
left there and died shortly afterward
Kane's statements were corroborated
by Attendants J, c. Ackerman and
George Harrington, but the person
who did the strangling was not dis
covered until Wayne McCann, new
patient at the institution, revealed the
fact that he not only strangled Han

SULTAN Of SULU
At MANILA FAIR

Manila, Feb. 1.-THE largest in
dustrial exhibition ever held in the
Philippines was opened at Zamboanga
today by Brigadier General Perishing,
governor Of the Moro province and
commanding general of the depart
ment of Mindanao. He was assisted
by Governor General w. Cameron
Forbes. Major General j. Franklin
Bell, commanding the Philippines di-
vision and Rear Admiral John Hub
bard, commander-in-chi of the u.
S Asiatic fleet who also reviewed the
land parade participated in by three
regiments of infantry one of cavalry,
five battalions of Philippine scouts
and eight companies and the band of
the Philippine constabulary.
In the parade were many high Of
ficials of the insular government,
members Of the consular corps, and
representatives of thirteen of the wild
tribes of Mindanao, who were brought
together for the first time. The war;
ships OF the Asiatic fleet will take
part in water parade tomorrow.
The exhibits In the fair grounds
represent the work of the several
tribes OF Moros, the Manobes, Mago-
bos. etc, during the past year and
samples of the agricultural products
raised by American planters in Davao.
Many Of the cloths woven by natives
are rich in design and color and equal
In brilliancy those manufactured in

sen, but jumped upon the insane
mans stomach two or three times Nc
Cam testified that he was close by
when the attendants were trying to
force Hansen to release Harrington's
finger and seeing that they were un-
able to do so, caught the man by the
throat and after choking him, kicked
him three times in the abdomen.
The testimony introduced by D. G..
Bellinger a house physician, was to
the effect Hansen met his death from
a hemorrhage of the stomach caused
by a severe blow. The physician in
formed the jury that two large rents
were found in the stomach lining on
examination which caused the hem
morrhage and which eventually re-
suited in the patients death.
Whether or not the case is suffi-
ciently serious to warrant an inves-
tigation by the grand jury Is yet to
be seen, but according to the testi-
mony given by both patients and at
tendants today, Hansen's dying con-
dition, which was noticed by both
Kane and Harrington 80 minutes be-
fore he passed away, was not report
ed to the head physicians until an
hour after the struggle took place.
Hansen, prior to his examination
for insanity, was working on one of
the reservation farms Though q
small man, his maniacal strength
made him difficult to handle. and
when he was put on the train hero,
it was necessary to tie his hands and
feet, which task required the COM
bined efforts OF Deputy Sheriff Strand
