OF OREGON AND PRESIDENT OF WHICH IS HOLDING PORTLAND, Jan. 12—The delegates to the National Wool Growers’ and Na- tional Livestock Convention met in joint session to-day and the two big organizations were heartily welcomed | to Oregon and Portland by represen- tative men of the State and city. The Livestock Association formally opened its annual meeting and the wool grow- ers, after a lengthy business session in | the afternoon, adjourned sine die. More | than a thousand delegates to the two| conventions from every section of the United States thronged the Baker The- ater from pit to gallery. The proceed- ings were frequently interrupted with bursts of applause in response to ad- dresses upon questions of vital inger-| to the two organizations. Sheep | men and cattle raisers met upon com- | mon ground with common Interests at | heart and discussed ways and means of securing mutual benefits. The morning session was devoted en- | tirely to a programme of entertain- | ment, including music and addresses of | welcome and responses. In the after- noon the wool growers met alone and completed the business of their meet- ing. Common interests of the wool | grower and the manufacturer were| | discussed. The condition of the mutton | sheep market was thoroughly presented | by representatives of the markets. Resolutions were adopted favoring leg- | islation that the sheep men deem to | be beneficial and necessary to their in- | | dustry and officers for the ensuing year | were elected. Senator F. E. Warren of Wyoming was re-elected president. | The convention decided to meet in cqn- junction with the livestock men next year at such place as the latter con- | vention may decide upon. San Jose, Cal., appears to be in the lead for the next convention of the two | organizations, though Denver has | strong backing. An effort is being made to have the convention decide | upon a permanent meeting place, where | all succeeding conventions may be held. It is generally conceded that should this motion prevail Denver will be se- {lected as the permanent headquarters. WELCOMED TO OREGON. The livestock -convention wiil begin its work proper to-morrow morning and three days will be devoted to earn- est consideration of many questions of | vital importance. Some politics is be- ing indulged in relative to the coming election of officers for this organization, but it is generally believed that Francis J. Hagenbarth of Tdaho will be chosen | |+ i est to succeed President Joseph W. Springer of Denver. The delegates to both conventions were entertained to-night by the peo- ple of Portland at a reception given in the halls of the Commercial Club. The joint convention was called to order a little after 10 o’clock, and Presi- dent Jchn W. Springer of tHe National Liyestock Assoclation, in a few appro- priate words, welcomed' the largegaudi- ence that crowded the Baker Theater to the doors, and introduced Governor Chamberlain of Oregon. Governor Chamberlain’s address, which was en- thusiastically received by the delegates, was in part as follow: Gentlemen: I take great pleasure in ex- tending to you. on behalf of the people of the State, A _most cordial welcome. as you do interests of great of vital importance to country. Oregon feels honored by your pres- ence and her people rejoice that an oppor- o tunity is afforded them to entertain you as their distinguished guest: I congratulate you that you have made your- selves felt and heard; that even the doors of the august Congress of the United States have been permitted to swing ajar so that your gentle volces might be permitted to enter in and stir up your servants there, and I pre- dict for you and throggh your efforts for the people still further and more attentive au- diences than you have yet had at the hands of the powers that be Directly due to your efforts is the Federal law which provides for the Federal Inspection of Interstate shipments of livestock. wherel stockmen are relieved of the necessity of hav- ing to pay a fee at every State line crossed while en route. Through the instrumentality of this law a saving is made to the industry which you represent of at least $100,000 per annum. There is no excuse for conditions which exist tc-day injuriously affecting the vy K industry of the country. In one short y and during an 2ra of unprecedented pros- there has been a falling off in the P of livestock of nearly 30 per cent, aggregating a 1oss to the industry of $865,- 000,000—$680,000,000 of which falls upon the raiser of cattle. $120,000,000 upon the raiser of sheep and $63.000,600 upon the raiser of ho"u. "'.l‘hl; l‘hmmemel Sum represents nearly a fourth of the total value of vestock of the United States, S If with this decline in prices of stock on foot there was a corresponding decline in the manufactured products there might be some compensation for this condition. But the fact is, the output of the packing-houses has not percentibly declined and prices have uni- formly remained about the same if they have not in some instances gone to a higher level. It is needless for me to suggest to you fhe source of these conditions. They are brought about by the manipulations of the leading packing-houses of the country. What is the practical remedy for the con- ditions which unfavorably affect the livestock industry of the country? The organization by you of an independent packers’ association. having in view the arec- tion of packing establishments on the Atlantis and Pacific seaboards for the export trade, is a curative step and one that commends itself to the intelligence. of the country, At the clese of the Governor's address President Springer introduced Mayor Williams, who extended a welcome in behalf of the city of Portland. FACE SERIOUS SITUATIONS. Colonel F. L. Wilson of Texas re- sponded to the addresses of welcome in behalf of the National Livestock Association. In thanking Oregon for the welcome, Colonel Wilson stated that the stockmen had not come for hospitality alome, but to face serious situations, to deal with questions of vital interest to all stockmen. He said that cme matter of prime importance to be considered was that of the inde- pendent packing company which the stockmen are interested in seeing es- tabliched. Colonel Wilson was followed by Senator F. E. Warren of Wyoming, who responded in behalf of the wool growers. Y The appearance of President Springer on the platform to deliver his annuval address was the signal for general and prolonged applause. His address dealt in plain language with the various questions that will be up for consider- ation during the convention of stock- men. The address apparently struck sympathetic chords among the dele- gates to the convention, for every point was received with evidence of appro- bation. He spoke in part as follows: While we t:;" kfl:t.lx;dw&:rl‘ ®ood l:nny 8T, Stackmen there remain still others vitel to success, and it is our business to see that these glaring wrongs are righted and that epeedily. - We cannot raise livestock without adequate raflway. “z.r"nmmtbn and better service than the ippers been arbitrarily cut off and this industry for crucifixion. espectally selected 3 Another thing, law should be passed by Congress compeliing railways to at least twenty miles an hour with livestock shipments Gestined for market. ‘We must all go gunning (with our ballots) for the Congressmen in every one of our dis. tricts and see if we cannot have the inter- | | bronght by Mrs. Hotchkiss he employed | CLIENT SCES IS ATTORNEY Commences Legal Proceeding: to Secure the Annulment of an Assignment of an Estate MAKES SERIOUS CHARGE | T N Asserts That He Signed Paper Believing It Was Merely a | Lien on Share of Property- Fe —— 5 LOS ANGELES, Jan. 12.—T.

Harding, president of the | National Association of Woolen Man- | ufacturers, gave an extensive and com- ! prehensive address on the subject, | “Matters of Mutual Interest to Wool | Growers and Woolen Manufacturers.” . | He discfissed the subject under two | headings. The first was that of leg- islation -and the second that of mar- keting. | Under the first heading he stated | that the proposed French treaty deals a body blow at American manufac- turers of hosiery and is of such disas- trous character that it must be op- posed in self-defense. The proposed North American treaty to reduce the tariff on wool was not fostered by the Manufacturers’ Association. In rela- | tion to the “‘mixed goods” bill, Hard- | Ing pointed out features of the meas- | ure which he thought were not to the interest ,of the producers or growers of wool. With reference to the wool markst of this country, the speaker thousght that a satisfactory classification could be made at the time of clipping which would make it possible for the manu- facturer to buy in large lots direct from the producer and at the same time be sure of getting the desired quality and class. OFFICERS ARE ELECTED. | Harding's address was followed by 13 talk on the subject, “Facts About Shoddy,” by Secretary John N. Mec- Pherson of the Wool Manufacturers’ Association. He assured the wool growers that the association he rep- resented was deeply interested in see- ing the sheep industry of this coun- try grow and improve constantly, be- causé they must depend upon this supply for their business. Short addresses were made relative to mutton sheep as viewed from the leading markets by A. C. Halliwell of Chicago, W. H. Weeks of Kansas City and M. B. Irwin of St. Joseph. Mo.

He had never looked at the plans for the building except on one occasion.
