and the reason for it all is the engage
ment of that immensely popular or
ganiZation, the Myrkle Harder Com

the most striking that have ever been
presented by any stock company at
popular prices. Each season this splen-
did company of players gains in popu-
larity, and judging from the manner In
which theatergoers are purchas sing
tickets for the entire week, it will be a
record-breaking one. All morning long
preparations were being made and
stage employees were kept busy arrang-
ing the details of the production and
early this afternoon a long line was in
front of the Majestic Theater box office
seeking entrance to the opening per
formance of 'Elevating n Husband. y"

curing tickets. Tomorrow, matinee

one of the greatest living theatrical
producers. Seats are now on sale for
the entire week at the Majestic box
office. and owing to the big demand for
tickets, telephone reservations will nor
be held later than l O'clock for the

STOUCH IS PLEASED
INTERPRETATIONS
FOR DIG CAMPAIGN
Confident of Good Results; CeIe-
brate 'HOme Night" Next
Friday Evening

Il am greatly pleased at the pre-
parations for the campaign in Harris
burg, both physical and spiritual" said
Dr. Henry w. Slough this morning
when asked about the outlook for the
revival that opened yesterday. II feel
that Harrisburg is on the eve of the
greatest religious awakening in its his
tory. The prayer meetings, the atti-
tude OF the churches, the willingness
OF the local workers and the publicity
given by the newspapers have prepar-
ed the city in a marvellous way that
makes me very optimistic. Every
member of the party has expressed
the same opinion to me-"
One of the party said that the gen.
eral attitude of a town can be felt on
the first day of a campaign by indi-
cations that the party can detect by a
sort of sixth sense" they have de-
veloped by their long experience in
evangelistlc work
Party Confers This Morning
conference was held at noon to-
day by the members of the party at
the residence, PIG Pine street for per-
sonal discussion of the work of the
SIX weeks campaign. The details of
the local field and the types of work to
be done by each member of the party
was gone over with DR.. Slough.
Next Friday night will be Home
Night when Dr. Slough will preach
his famous sermon, on Home Makers
and Home Breakers"
Ordinarily DR.. Slough does not an
nounce the subject of his sermon for
each service. 1t was explained by one
of his party that he seldom knows
In advance what he will talk of and
decides only after he reaches the plat
form and judge the attitude of the
audience. He has an extensive re-
pertoire and can call up any of his
subjects for immediate delivery as he
senses the feeling of the crowd

The federal force was reduced by

He was in personal charge of the

Runners from the scene of the en-

GRAZING LANDS
WERE NOT DISCUSSED
GOVERNOR SAYS THE QUESTION
WAS NOT OPENED AT DENVER
LANE BILL IS CONFUSED.

A story in the Oregonian, or, to be
exact, communication to that paper,
accuses Governor West Of opposing the
leasing of grazing lands in the state.
The governor says the writer was evi-
IDENTIFY laboring under mistake, as the
question of leasing grazing lands was
not discussed at Denver. Tho matter
of leasing coal, oil, gas, potassium
borax and such lands was up, and this
was warmly supported by tho Cover
nor. This is known as the Lane bill
and was framed for the purpose Of
opening all lands to exploitation, and
also providing for a revenue from the
same, which will, in turn, be given To
the western states for the purpose Of
reclaiming lands. The bill applies to
Alaska, and will not only Keep the
title of such lands in the general gov.
ernment, but will also furnish per.
petual revenue, while, at the same time
permitting all such mineral lands to be
made use of and productive.

arrived in Tampieo. OF these all who
wish it will be brought north on the
steamship Esperanza.
There has been considerable speeula.
tion concerning America $ policy should
Admiral Badger, reaching Tampico,
find the rebels in control. This did
not seem an improbability in view of
the fact that the federal gunbots Pro
gresso and Zaragoza have left. The
fire from these two vessels has been
the main factor in keeping thet consti-
tutionalists out so long and without
them it was believed the city would be
taken easily.
In administration circles here the i'm
preston seemed to prevail that the best
thing to 10, if such thing happened,
would be for the United States fleet to
concentrate at Vera Cruz and exact a
salute there.

increasing dangerously, according to

United States consulate and hissed
Consul Canada.
President Huerta's advisers were
said to be divided as to the advisability
of yielding to the Washington govern
mont IS demand for a salute of the
American flag. Many of them favored
defiance, believing that it would drive
the rebels into a reconciliation with
the Mexico City regime in resistance of
the common enemy.

ordered Assistant Secretary Roosevelt,
now in San Francisco, to take personal
charge of the Pacific fleet % movement

JUDGE D|SS0[VES
INJUNCTION IN
PRINTERS TANGLE
State Printer Harris Now Un-
restricted as to His Em-
ployes in Plant.
NOT DEPRIVED OF
ANY LEGAL RIGHT
Non-Union Men May Be EN-
ployed According to Deci-
sion Handed Down.

As it was not shown that the con-
tract between State Printer r. A. Har-
ris and the Salem union regarding the
employment of only members of the sa-
lem union in the state printing plant
was in existence and in force at the
present time, and also because there
was no infringement Of legal rights al
legged by the. parties plaintiff, Judge
William Galloway this morning dis
solved tho temporary injunction In the
case Of w. G. Francis, ct al, against
Chris Schumann Governor West,
Treasurer Kay, Secretary Of State Ben
W. Olcott and the Salem printers
union, an action brought in the circuit
court for Marion county TO restrain the
state printer from paying the men in
the state printing office. In dissolv-
ing the temporary injunction, Judge
Galloway sustains the demurrer inter
posed by District Attorney Ernest Rim
go, for the defendants.
That the employment Of union men
in the state printing plant is wholly
discretionary with State Printer Har-
ris, is the opinion Of Judge Galloway.
As long as the plaintiffs are tide
privcd OF any legal right inherent as
citizens of Oregon, and are not dam
aged they have no cause Of action. II
the employment Of Salem union men
in the state printing plant had done
harm to them and impaired their
rights, then there might be cause for
action by the court.
Judge Cites Example.
Accordingly to the defense demur-
red on the ground that the plaintiffs
had no capacity to sue, that there was
defect of the parties plaintiff, and
finally that there were no facts al
legged sufficient to constitute cause
of action.
Judge Galloway said it was like hay-
ing job of spading in the garden to
do, and there were two men to do it,
white man and black man. If his
wife did not like to have a black man
around she told him she preferred
white man, but left the aetual matter
of hiring to him. If he exercised his
Judgment and hired the white man, he
could not see any reason Why the black
man had any complaint coming, unless
he had lost some Of his public rights in
the matter. SO it is in the present
case, the judge declared. As long as
State Printer Harris deprives no citi-
zen of his rights as such he may hire a
Salem union man or not, just as he
pleases.
Judge Galloway granted the plain
tiff ten days in which to file an amend
ed complaint. Attorney Clark, Of the
law firm of Spencer & Clark, OF Port
land, representing the plaintiffs, gave
notice that he would appeal the case to
the supreme court.
