From the disconnected statements
made by Anderson after his rescue,
it was gathered that he rowed across
Wood river in a sliff in the hope that
he would catch the steamboat, which
was bringing supplies to the refinery
and induce the captain to let him
work his way to Alton.
At the same time Anderson was
starting for the landing James
Thompson and George Mcpherson,
employees of the refinery, went to the
shore to wait for the freight ship
ment. ~
At a. m. they. heard 'agonized cries
for help. While they searched for
lanterns. the calls became weaker but
more frequent Walking up the west
bank of Wood river, they came upon

JUDGE LOWELL
PRESENTS KNOX

Portland, Ore, oct. 17.-Praising
President Taft for his sincerity of pur-
pose, sheer intellectually, high and
courageous patriotism and unswerv-
ing integrity, Philander c. Knox, sec
retary of state, pleaded the cause OF
the republican nominee before an en-
thusiastic audience of 5000 people at
the Armory Tuesday night.
The eloquent recital by Secretary
Knox of the accomplishments of Pres
ident Taft aroused the responsive au-
dience to frequent bursts of applause.
Secretary Knox was formally intro
duced to the audience by Judge Ste
phen A. Lowell of Pendleton, who
said in part:
Tonight in this season Of political
stress and turmoil. in a campaign
murky with spite and little things, 1t
will be just that the party which has
in large degree directed the affairs
OF the great republic for so years
should seek the mountain tops, and,
looking with calmness, learn its ach-
ievements and know f2r what it
stands.
Under Lincoln II preserved the
Union and set the black man free;
with Grant its leader ii solved the
mighty problem of Reconstruction; at
the suggestion of Hayes it pronounc-
ed a benediction upon the wayward
states, and withdrew the last SOL
dier from Southern soil; with Harri-
son il extended the friendly hand Of
reciprocity to the Nations, and hope
full pan n-AmeriCanism was born: to
Mckinley was given the scepter when
Cuba was freed, and we found place
in the council chambers of Christen-
dom as a world power; Roosevelt was
a republican and occupied the eXecu-
tive chair by the gift of that party,
when he secured the brightest jewel
OF his political diadem, the matchelss
waterway which will unite the oceans.
\ thousand other things, all neces-
sary and most of them important,
mark these administrations, and with
them thousand others, useless
bluAdering and unblest, the driftwood
of human effort. The great central
achievements. however. of which |
speak. are lasting as the age; they
are the heights above the clouds.
The pace of the administration
now sitting at Washington is fixed in
history. Its niche in the hall of fame
will be determined by its leadership in
the world wide peace movement and
those magnificent arbitration treaties
negotiated with France and Great
Britain. President Taft has remem-
bered in the conduct of the govern
ment that above the glory of war and
the gilded glamour of material tri-
umph rests the eternal truth of the
prophetic declaration, THE work of
Righteousness shall be peace: and the
effect of righteousness quietness and
assurance forever and it is the recog-
milton of this record which i'm this
time of storm is bringing to his ban
ner the mighty forces of the religi-
Gus world and the army of recruits
from the fields of social uplift.
AT the right hand of the president
in the conception and inauguration of
his magnificent scheme of peace has
been the distinguished gentleman who
honors us with his presence tonight,
the Secretary of state, Philander C..
Knox, OF Pennsylvania, whom | now
present to you.'
