UNITED PRESS LEASED WIRE. ]

Burns, Ore, Oct, 4.-"Bill' Hanley
cattle king of Eastern Oregon, and
one Of the best known men in the Pa
clfic Northwest, today announces the
withdrawal of his support of Presi-
dent Taft, and states he will support
Governor Woodrow Wilson, Demo-
cratic presidential nominee. Hanley
was Taft presidential elector.
Hanley gives as his reasons for re-
fusing longer to align himself with
President Taft his dissatisfaction with
the president because of his failure to
bring about a downward revision OF
the tariff, and his belief that vote
for Taft is vote for Colonel Roose-
welt. He thinks the contest for cleo
ton to the presidency lies between
Colonel Roosevelt and Governor Will
son.
Hanley says that Colonel Roose-
Welt is too dangerous" to be elected
to the presidency.

improvements but only for mainte-

Captain Graham showed how the

An Enthusiastic Meeting.

Albany, Or, Oct. 4,--Postmaster Van
Winkle called the Open Willamette
River conference to order. Mayor
Gilbert delivered an address of well
come in well chosen words, reviewing
the railroad development Of the VIII
lamette valley, and spoke of revetment
work and improvement of the channel
as more important than a deeper
river.
Secretary Stewart, of the Albany
Commercial club, read a carefully pre-
pared statement Of the surveys and
recommendations Of the past, showing
a plan Of permanent improvement had
been agreed upon by the engineers
and war department covering a period
of eight years at 100000 a year, but
the appropriations had dwindled away
until they had not half that sum to
keep the river open. Major Mclndoe
sustained this and said he had to pull
his crews off the river in June and
lay up his steamer with the captain
on half pay.

to his recent letter bearing on this
subject to Chairman Clapp. He also
quoted from a letter which he had
written to George Sheldon, treasurer
of the Republican national committee
In 1908, Roosevelt's quotation fol-
lows
Refers TO His Letter.
81 have been informed that some
one, acting on your behalf, requested
contributions from John D. Archbold
and Hartman. If this be true l ear
nestly protest against the acceptance
of money from trusts which the attor-
may prosecute. If the
money has been rendered it should be
refused.
81 am not a candidate for office.
But | protest against the solicitation
of funds from the persons we are
prosecuting. Four years ago, am
informed, Cortelyou returned money
contributed by those we are prosecut-
ing / would rather see us defeated
than to win with that money. The ac-
ceptance of a dollar would hurt Taft
more than 1t possibly could help him"
Roosevelt then read letter which
he had written to Cortelyou directing
him to return any money the Standard
Oil company may have contributed. He
followed this up by reading tele-
gram to Cortelyou which referred to
the letter. The telegram was dated
October 27, 1904, and read:
Il greatly desire that the request
contained in my letter of yesterday be
complied with"
Only Hearsay Evidence.
Regarding the Hartman fund,
Roosevelt said.
"In the first place there is no testi-
mony against me except hearsay evil
dence My traducers have quoted
the words of men now dead Archbold
and Penrose gave what purports to be
statements OF Bliss, now dead"
Referring to the Sibley letter pub
lshed by Hearst's Magazine, which
quoted the former president as telling
Slbley that he would be delighted to
see Archbold, Roosevelt said:
"I do not recall this specific Incl
dent, but during my administration
was glad to see anyone. recall that
Senator Jonathan Bourne of Oregon

with Archbold.

THE SYMPHONY SEASON.

The symphony season will open In
Richmond tomorrow night. Perhaps
that sounds a little ambitious for the
Philharmonic Society's concerts, bu'
there is bit of prophecy in the title
II musicians and music-lovers give &c
the present undertaking the support
/ and announcement IL SO well deserves
| 1t will not be many years until
series OF real symphony concerts will
add charm and distinction to the WIN
ter season. To support it's own or
chestra, under competent leadership.
and technically able to render the
finest music. is not too great hope
for city in whose heart love for
good music Is SO deeply planted. But
IL this longej-for end is to be reached.
we must enjoy and appreciate what
is now offered. We must help the
Philharmonic Society to grow. We
must learn to know and feel the
beauty of classic music. We must
sympathize-and pay.
The members of the Philharmonic
Orchestra and their rev leader are to
be congratulated on the first program,
to be given in the Auditorium Thurs
day. There is no complete symphony,
but there is much good and interest
ing music in the numbers. One move
ment Of Mendelssohns Italian Sym
phony is to be played. The tenor aria
from aida" is to be sung by Mr.. Van
Pelt. A nocturne by Leslie Watson is
to be given for the first time. A march
always delightful Nutcracker Suite of
Tschaikowsky make up a program
that offers both grave and gay selec-
lions, the interest Of local talent and
composer. as well as the perpetual
charms of the less heavy classics.
The success OF the Spring Festival
this year augurS well for the success
Of this Richmond organization. We
are glad that the fee for the concerts
has been made almost ridiculously
ow-i0 cents for each evening by
subscription-for at this charge more
people of all classes will attend, and
the musical education of the entire
community be fastened. For, in the
end, the more people who are drawn
to music. the better music they will
want and pay for.
The members Of this orchestra, who
are giving Of their time ana talent
1Ir the pleasure Of their fellows. show
a fine and unselfish spirit of civic SER
vice. The only reward they ask Is to
be able to give more music and better
music to the people. 1t rests partly
with you whether their hopes are made
real.
