Hillsdale Judge Webster and F. In
flames. Those who imagine that the Democrats
who oppose the re-election of George E.
Chamberlain to tha Governorship are lim
ited to one or two or half a dozen, are
greatly In error. From every part of the
state come reports of Democrats who are
displeased with Chamberlain's administra
tion and his methods of conducting this
campaign. There are many reasons for
the disaffection, amon? them being the
appointments he has made, his persistency
in being a candidate for office, his effort
to sacrifice all ' the rest of the ticket In
order to promote his own interests, and
his claiming credit that docs not belong
to him. even where credit is due, in part,
at least, to members of his own party.
Opposed to Chamberlain.
There are several prominent Democrats
in Portland who are vigorooMy opposing
the re-election of Chamberlain, and the
most earnest efforts of the campaign
managers have not sufficed to line them
up for the .ticket or put an end to their
arguments against the continuance of
Chamberlain In office. It is openly charged
ty many Democrats that Chamberlain
was untrue to those who made his first
election possible, that he has acted upon
the assumption that his political friends
would continue to work for him. what
ever he did, and that he could, therefore,
beat promote his own interests by curry
ing favor with those who had been his
political enemies. He threw down his
friends and exalted those who had done
nothing for him. is the accusation many
members of his party make.
A. King Wilson's Letter.
Among those Democrats sho oppose the
re-election of Chamberlain Is A. King
Wilson, a prominent Portland' attorney,
who will, on June 4, for the first time,
cast his first vote for a Republican for
Governor. The Oregonlan has received
the following letter from him:
Portland, Or.. May 23. (To the Editor.)
Two men are before the people of Oregon,
- sklnff to be elected Governor of the s4ate,
end the question before the voter Is which one
he will vote for. Mr. Chamberlain has been
Governor nearly four years and should be
Judged by the record he haa made. X am a
Democrat and. In the past, have voted for
Mr. Chamberlain every time his name haa
been upon the ticket. I attended a number of
democratic meetings four years ago when his
name was before the people for election.
From my observation. Governor Chamber
lain stands for no principle and has no advis
ers. From his record aa Governor, no one can
tell what policy he will pursue in the next
four years, nor what character of men he
will appoint to office. He deserted and aban
doned the men who assisted him to office the
last time. He turned his back upon his
friends and was ready to console and comfort
hi enemies. What will he do if he Is elected
again? Will he put In force the policies he
now advocates on the stump, or will he en
deavor to enforce the very opposite? Wilt
he listen to or consult with the people he
now" states he Is friendly to, or will he dis
regard them and seek Others of more recent
acquaintance for the benefit of securing the
favor of those who are able to assist him for
the moment?
In the four years he has been Governor, he
has spent his time trimming and straddling
and seeking to build up a chamberlain party
at any coal, and today, aa he appears before
the public, he stands for no principles, no
party and no set of men.
On the othar hand, we have Mr. Wlthycombe.
who has led a good, clean life .for years. He
Is a man in middle life, has been before the
public sufficiently to be well acquainted and.
In the positions which he has Ailed, he has
performed his work acceptably to the public.
He stands squarely upon Republican prin
ciples and will be advised by Republican men.
"We shall know where to find him during his
term as Governor. He will not spend his
time dallMng with every public question, en
deavoring to listen, with his ear to the ground,
to And out what will make him votes in his
next campaign, but he will spend his time
appointing the beet men from the Republican
party to office and seeing that they perform
their trust faithfully and for the welfare of
the state. He will devote his energy and at
tention to the" execution of the laws and not
In following peanut politics.
For my part. I would rather see a good
Republican In office, glvlng.a goo.1 Republican
administration, that 1 know where he la iuid
what his principles are. than to have a man
tn office who stands for no principles and for
nothing except the advancement of himself.
I ehsll cast my vote for Mr. Wlthycombe and
1t will he the first time that 1 have voted for
a Republican for Governor of this state. I
hope that the people who are endeavoring to
Save a good, clean government in our state
will do likewise. Tours truly.
A. KING WILSON.
DEMOCRATS HOLD A RALLY
Call Opponents of Candidates With
in the Party Judases.
There was a rousing Democratic
rally at the County Headquarters on
Seventh street last night, but as only
Democrats were present tt does not
seem likely that many converts were
made from Republican ranks. Jonn
Hennessy Murphy. General Kilifeather,
Isaac Swett, Francis Clarno and Will
iam, Horan were the speakers, with
A E. Reames presiding.
Murphy opened the flreworks by a
grand assault upon the Republican
nominee for I'ntted States Senate.
Jonathan Bourne. Jr., while he asserted
that the record of the Democratic,
nominee, J. M. Gearln, was free from
blemish. He read a letter from Gcarin
under date of May 1 denying that he
had ever said he believed a Republican
legislature would elect a Republican
to-the Cnlted States Senate, regardless
of the popular vote In June.
General Kilifeather paid his respects
to P. H.D"Arcy and Napoleon Davis
in a way that would not have pleased
those gentlemen If they had been
present. Kilifeather. believed In men
being true to their patty, and had no
use for men who played the part of
Judas Tscarlot. He eulogised George
K. Chamberlain and took a few shots
Rt Dr. Wlthycombe, the college pro
fuor, M tt called him, whom tha Re
publicans have nominated for Gov
ernor. Isaac Swett, Democratic , nominee
for Representative, fired a rew shots
at D. C. Burns, Republican nominee
for the Legislature, who, he said, did
not take out hia naturalization papers
until after he had decided to become a
Candidate. He thought if the Demo
crats would make a whirlwind cam
paign and make the City of Portland
ring with proclamations of Democratic
doctrine the party would stand a good
chance of filling more of the state and
county offices with its candidates.
Francis Clarno made a short address.
Urging Democratic fidelity to the party
nominees. He did not believe there
was a Judas in the room.
Horan made a strong Statement No.
1 speech, saying that some candidates
for the legislature propose to exercise
their own judgment in voting for
Vnited States Senator, but this he
thought they had no right to do. He
expressed the belief that if the Legis
lature refused to carry out the will
of the people, the people should go to
Salem and enforce the instructions
given their representatives. After re
ferring to the assertion that some
men who have signed Statement No. 1
will not keep their pledge if a Demo
crat should receive the popular vote,
Horan exclaimed that It was high time
that political lying should cease. He
said: "We have had too many men
going to Salem to act upon their own
Judgment and members of the Legisla
ture should understand that they are
sent to Salem to carry out the Instruc
tions and wishes of the people. The
men who go to the Legislature are no
better qualified to think than are the
people who send them there, and the
people do not intend to continue
sending slobs to the Legislature to act
upon their own judgment after they
have been instructed how to vote."
H'oran also argued against the enact
ment of a multitude of new laws, say
ing that already there were more laws
than were needed.
FAVORS HIS OWN" PARTY.
How Chamberlain Dispenses Patron
age and Trade.
A new phase of the "nonpartisan" ad
ministration was shown up recently by
Frank Davey, a legislative candidate up
In Marion County, who took time to In
vestigate a few of the records In the
management of the State Penitentiary.
It was already well, known that Chamber
lain had appointed Democrats to all the
Important offices, except where political
diplomacy required the appointment of
some Republican, but It is not generally
known that Democrats fare particularly
well in furnishing supplies to the State
Penitentiary, which is under Chamber
lain's control. Mr. Davey produced the
figures to show that during Governor
Chamberlain's administration D. J. Fry,
a Democratic leader in Marion County,
furnished drugs and paints to the Peni
tentiary to the amount of J2SS7.27, while
all the other dealers in drugs, paints and
glasss. furnished materials of this sort to
the amount of less than $600. One feed
firm that Is a political supporter of
Chamberlain supplied .the Penitentiary
with feed to the value of $2400. while the
rival firm of Republican faith furnished
feed only to the amount of $438. Though
supplies are supposed to be purchased In
accordance with sealed bids, only limited
amounts are so bought, and when sup
plies outside those covered by the bid
are bought, the authorities can go where
they wish to do the buying.
Democrats at Gresham.
A good sized audience greeted sev
eral Democratic candidates at a rally
at Gresham last night, when the Issues
of the campaign were discussed. J.
W. Shattuck presided end the Gresham
orchestra furnished music. After a
few introductory . remarks by County
Chairman G. H. Thomas, addresses
were made by Tom Word, nominee for
Sheriff; John Van Zante, nominee for
County Judge; George L. Hutchln,
nominee for the Legislature; T. G.
Halley, nominee for Supreme Judge;
R. A. Miller, nominee for Attorney
General, and by J. A. Jeffrey, who is
not a candidate," but who Is -helping
the Democratic campaign along.
Suit the people, because they are tired
of bitter doses, with the pain and griping
that usually follow. Carter's Little Liver
Pills. One pill a dose.

BIG ATTRACTION
(Continued From Page 1.)
float which carried the Queen, with her
attendants. Miss Gertrude Woodruff made
a very beautiful Queen, and all along the
line her appearance was greeted by tu
multuous applause. Her float was very
handsome. Nine other floats constructed
by the joint committee of the exposition,
under the direction of S. H. Friedlander,
followed the Queen. All of the floats were
very beautiful. The thousands of specta
tors who saw them were very enthusiastic
over them and expressed their approval
by liberal applause. The line of march
was the scene of a continued ovation for
the floats.
The floats were admirably arranged and
original In design. IJttle girls dressed In
white rode in all of them, which greatly
added to their attractiveness. A minia
ture reproduction of Mount Hood was
particularly good.. The float was es
corted by a dozen or more boys on ponies,
dressed to represent Indians. The float
showing a mammoth salmon was another
splendid feature which attracted much at
tention. The huge fish was made out of

a little girl In white.
Second Division Typifies Industry.
The second division consisted largely of
floats of manufacturing concerns of Port
land and Oregon. Many of them "were
very Interesting and showed great Inge
nuity in their design. The Italian Gar
deners Association had a float upon
which was arranged in tiers the different
vegetables grown in Oregon. "When the
parade was about over the vegetables were
thrown to the crowd. The woman's suf
fragists had a float In the parade, which
contained little girls, who distributed cam
paign literature.
When the parade reached Stark and
Washington streets the carriages con
taining Admiral Goodrich, Governor
Chamberlain, Mayor Lane. Bury I
Dasent, Secretary Freeman and others
broke line and their occupants were
hurried to the reviewing stand. Mem
bers of the-Council also were given
seats in the reviewing stand. . After
being reviewed the parade dispersed.
Prize-Winning Floats. ,
In the judgment of the committee
appointed to award the three silver
cups as prizes the floats of the Italian
Gardeners' Association, the Willamette
Iron & Steel Works and the decorated
automobile of John Geon were the best.
The Italian Gardeners' Association
was judged to be the organization
having the best showing and the
Willamette Iron & Steel Works was
thought to have the best of the manu

awarded a prize for having the best

The Portland Development Company
had a very handsome float which was
constructed at considerable expense.
Upon canvass was painted a view of
the Lewis and Clark exposition build
ings which will be utilized for manu
facturing purposes. Busts of John S.
McMillln and Lafe Pence were shown.
The Willamette Iron & Steel Works had
a logging engine drawn . by eight
horses. All of the other floats were
good, but they were too numerous to
give details.
During the last half hour of the
parade it rained, but it had little effect
upon the procession. Mr. Friedlander
had several features which had to be
left out because of the drizzle, but
otherwise the parade took place just
as planned.
Order of the Parade.
The order of the parade follows:
Mounted police, two platoons of police,

One of the most Interesting features
of the parade was "that of the Stude
baker Bros. Manufacturing Company,
which consisted of two carriages of
children. One was filled with boys and
the other with girls from the Children's
Home in South Portland. Mr. Turner,
of the company, presented each of the
19 youngsters with a dollar at the con
clusion of the parade. The carriages
containing the children bore the ban
ners, 'The Crop That Never Fails."
THREATENED 'TO STRIKE.
How Musicians Were Induced to
Keniain in Procession.
In the industrial parade of yesterday
afternoon of the Made in Oregon Exposi
tion, the naval band and the Fourteenth
Infantry Band, from Vancouver, marched
together, which was considered by many
of the spectators as being a very queer
arrangement. Only by such an arrange
ment, a strike was averted among the
musicians of the other bands who took
part in the parade, who protested against
the participation of nonunion men. By
having the naval and military bands act
as escorts of Admiral Goodrich, serious
trouble was prevented.
Early in the afternoon, when the two
divisions of the parade were being formed
at Tenth and Main streets, representa
tives of the Musicians' Union called upon
Grand Marshal Charles K. McDonell
and delivered an ultimatum to the effect
that DeCaprio's and Brown's bands would
not march in the parade if the naval and
military bands were allowed to partlci-
! pate. They said that the regulations of
their union forbade them to take part In
any event In which nonunion men par
ticipated. Musicians in the naval or mili
tary service are classed as nonunion men.
It was explained to them that the
services of the naval and military bands
had been volunteered, and that they
would not be paid for. But the union
men were obdurate, and refused to march
unless other arrangements were made.
For a while it looked as though DeCap
rio's and Brown's bands would be left
out, as those in charge refused to dis
miss the other two bands. Grand Marshal
McDonell hit upon the happy idea of
having the two organizations act as an
escort of Admiral Goodrich, and the
striking musicians then .consented to
march in the precession. .

FOR THE SOUL
OF RAFAEL
When Keith Bryton went to Mexico to look
up some mining property, he came upon a
strange hill tribe of Indians.
And after he had been "struck down ind
well tued up," as he said, he wat uved and
ourted hack to life by lovely Mexican girt
whose name he did not learn.
Nor did he see her again until after the had
married Rafael de Arteaga, the worthless scion
of a noble race. Here is the situation at the
beginning of this fascinating romance of Old
California, and here are the principal characters.
Perhaps you will think that the happiness of
Bryton and the girl he loved to reverently are
worth far more than the soul of Rafael, but
they did not think so, and that u what makei
the story.
And k is a splendid story, of the kind that
charms without the least el ort, because of its
inherent strength and sincerity.
The outward, appearance of the book is
worthy of it contents. It is not possible to
adequately describe it here, but nothing mote
original or beautiful will be found among this
year' novels.

Not only his colleagues from the Ore

She Quit
Coffee
But It Was
a Hard Pull
It is hard to believe that coffee will
put a person in such a condition as it did
a woman of Apple Creek, O. She tells
her own story:
"I did not believe coffee caused my
trouble, and frequently said I liked it so
well I would not quit drinking It, even if
it took my life, but I was a miserable
sufferer from heart trouble and nervous
prostration for four years.
"I was scarcely able to be around at all.
Had no energy and did not care for any
thing. Was emaciated and had con
stant pain around my heart until I
thought I could not endure it. For months
I never went to bed expecting to get up
In the morning. I felt as though I waa
liable to die any time during the night.
"Frequently I had nervous chills and
the least excitement would drive sleep
away, and any little noise would upset
me terribly. I was gradually getting
worse until finally one day It came over
me and I asked myself irhat is the use of
being sick all the time and buying medi
cine so that I could indulge myself in
coffee?
"So I thought I would see if I could quit
drinking coffee, and got some Postum
Food Coffee to help me quit. I made It
strictly according to directions and I
want to tell you that change was the
greatest step in my life. It was easy to
quit coffee because I had the Postum
which I like better than I liked the old
coffee. One by one the old troubles left,
until now I am in splendid health, nerves
steady, heart all light and pain all gone.
Never have any more nervous chills, don't
take any medicine, can do all my house
work and have done a great deal beside.
"My sister-in-law, who visited me this
Summer had been an Invalid for soma
time, much as I was. I got her to quit
coffee and drink Postum. She gained five
pounds in three weeks, and I never
such a change In anyone's health."
"Tbere's a reason."
