There In not even the customary printer's mark on the slat to disclose ITa orirtn. The purport of the slate Is plainly to ft a full Democratic ticket Installed at tiie primary election Saturday. Kncour sced by the recrnt sm-eep!ng victory of the party In Maine and by rilsrord In the HepuMlcan party in Multnomah iunty. Democrats for several day a paex have bn hopeful of electing a tiovernor In the itenerai election. It la known that much complaint has been voiced over the failure of the party t put out a full county ticket. Ticket Eleventh-Hour Effort. But the County Central Committee has been unable to act. for If a meeting had been held the Democratic stand aaalnst assemblies would have been nullified and an Important point of at lark on the political enemy eliminated Individual aspirants failed to develop of their own accord and leading Demo crats neglected to- Induce candidates f enter the field. "Why should we attempt to get tills man to run for an office for which he had a chance and pit another agat&st a Republican who could not be beaten" Inquired County Chairman George f Thomas. The Democrats have been on the verse of letting any opportunity they may have In thla county go by default, but the slate as put out yesterday Is regarded as an eleventh-hour attempt to get Into line for possible emergenclea that may arise after the primary election has been held. Slate Violates Ibm . The slate as sent out yesterday to the Democratic voters Is In violation of the corrupt practice low. Inasmuch as the ouree of the circular Is not noted. But It Is not likely that the culpable parties will become known, am there la no clew a to the Identity of the senders. Plainly, EnS .rX'JlS-Si?: are bill Incurred will amount to several hundred dollars. The circular Is headed in large black letters. "Democrats of Multnomah Coun ty." followed by "It Is suggested that you write In the names of the following gentlemen on your primary ballot for the offices printed opposite their names. Do not omit the X. This will present to the voters a strong ticket of estimable men." Here Is the slate: For Judge of Circuit Court Depart ment 1. Thomas O'Day.

It Is pointed out. however, that the attitude of neigh boring states must not be Invested with too much hope, for If precedent counts for anything It might he well to recall 'S. when Bryan caught Washington and California while Oregon stayed (irmly in line. "Why doesn't Acting Governor Bower maa resign from the State Senate when he Is a candidate for another office r some of the antl-aaaemblyltes are asking. Mr. Bowermaa's reply la calculated to make them sorry they put the query. Mr. Chamberlain waa originally the Gov ernor under the present administration. When he was sent to the Senate the Secretary of State. Mr. Benson, succeeded to tbe throne. Now that Mr. Benson la away for bia health It devolves on Mr. Bowerman to assuma tha duties of the place, and If he should step out there would be none to handle the heavy run of Important business. Mr. Bowerman'a associates say the office Is now a verit able elephant on his hands. Inasmuch as he Is prevented from giving very much of his time to his campaign for the Re publican nomination. But he says he will not Ieave the poet unoccupied while Mr. Benson Is" away even If his personal po litical Interests do have to suffer In con sequence. Anti-assembly charges that the Repub lican organisation In Multnomah County Is dominated by the corporations sound rather hollow In the face of the fact that the central committee has to scrimp and scrape to pay office expenses and a few routine bills, while the anti-aaaerably county campaign la not lacking In funds, as Is evidenced by the expenditures made In the effort to rapture the committee at the primaries. The latest expense la an output of approximately tax) for the mere purpose of getting the names of a few sntt-assembly candidates for committee men written la on the ballots. The various .candidates are devoting every ounce of surplus and excess energy to their campaigning thla week. On the county ticket the hardest contest Is on the legislative lineup. A hard tussle Is on. too. over the offices xf Sheriff and County Clerk, while the campaign waxes hot over Auditor. Justices of the Peace and Constable. Both aides are valiantly claiming victory. The precise standing of all propheta will be made known next jgumiay rooming. strongest confidence la held by assem- bly Republicans generally that the state ticket mill be nominated with possibly one or two exceptions. Doubt as to the nomination of Mr. Bowerman Is rare! heard even In - the camp of the anti assemblyltes, although various predictions are made by that element as to the out come on the rest of the ticket. Consternation was caused lately by printed statement In which County Clerk Fields was represented as having ssld thst Democrats might vote as Repub licans provided they expressed to the election Judges a change of political heart. Mr. Fields, however, denies hav ing ever said anything of the sort and says the law Is very clear on the sub ject. The flip of a coin will have no small bearing on the outcome of the contest between Captain H. I. Welch and Sam B. Martin for the Audltorshlp. Both are rated as nrst-class men. neither Is politician and they have a great many friends In common who will be unable to determine which way to vote without tossing a coin. Notwithstanding the detailed charges 01 graft lodged against him. Colonel E. Hofer. anti-assembly candidate for Gov ernor. says he surely will win next 9at urday. Pr. T. U Perkins, anti-assembly can didate for the legislature, has been unan lmonj.lv Indorsed by the Oregon State Dental Association.

THE automobile reporter should have been sent to Interview Walker Vhltelde. Th-n there mhjht have been a t.r- to tell. For Mr. Whiteside is in the la.it Muxes of motnritia. V hat he knows about automobiles would make he man who Invented them sit up and orwVrve larirely, and a Hat of the brsnds he owns 'or has owned or will o n would fill this column. "Ask me." said the actor, "what ex plodes the gas In the cylinder and I can take the spark plug oat of the cylinder and show you the points of contact and explain that it Is the spark that explodes- the gas-rbut ask. me to explain or demonstrate the divine spark or maybe dissect the spontaneity of aa actora art for newspaper reading, and welt I can't do It that's aJL I would rather take a motor apart and put it together than do almost any other thing In the world. Love of Mechanism Grow. "Until I owned one and by the bye, I bought one of the first onea In this coun tryI had no Idea of machinery. In fact, my only accomplishment in thla line was winding a watch or loading; a itun. Now I am obsessed with a love of mechanical thins, and I take ail my cars apart. reaularly and as a source of pleasure put them tog-ether again." (Notice he said "all my cars.") ' . By dttrt of maneuvering Mr. Whiteside waa brought to the interviewer' a block and forced to talk about one or two things other than sparks and plugs and igniters and long hazy Summer d(ya Kvery Past la Dead. "1 never think over or recall my auc- eesses any more than I think over or recall my failures." bo said. -'Every past Is a dead thing. Only the future beckons, only the present lives. Ko man is wholly ree-ponslble for his failures or successes. Always there Is a lull In the events of everyone's life. That la the making-over period, but ,no one ever seems to rcognixe It as such.

COURT DOCKET GOES OVER Members of Portland Bar to Attend Funeral- Appointment of Suc cessor Xot to Be Made by Major Before Tomorrow. Gloom prevailed at police headquar ters yesterday on accoifht of the sud den death of Municipal Judge Bennett. The magistrate had established himself with every member of the force as Just Judge who stood squarely behind the officers In every effort to enforce the law. A beautiful floral piece veas sent by the pollre department to the house of mourning. The flag at head quarters was draped. Acting Judge I-anirguth appeared for a moment yesterday morning and an nounced that all caves on the docket would be continued until Thursday. In the meantime simple rases are being dealt with by the Chief of Police and his captains, wherever possible, with view of preventing a congestion of the docket. Masons to Hold Srrt ke.

Chief of Police Cox yesterday ordered that police headquarters be draped In mourning for 10 days and that on the ay of the funeral a company, under Police Captain Bailey, of the first night relief, be detailed to act as a guard of onor. In his orders Chief Cox says: "In the death of Judge Bennett the lty has lost a faithful and efficient public servant, who stood for the high est Ideals ef civic government and pat riotic citizenship. As a man he was honest, kindly and charitable. 'As Judge he was Intelligent, courageous nd merciful. During the year and a half that he has been so Intimately connected with the administration of this department he has been an effec tive agent In maintaining the peace of he city and upholding the. authority of the police. By his effective and fear less administration of the law he has driven lawless characters from the city and has raised the standard of muni cipal morality. So fair and equitable has been his administration, however. that those upon whom has fallen his severest censure have never com plained." Successor Xot Chosen. A successor to the late Judge will not be named by Mayor Simon until tomorrow at least, and It may be that the appointment will not materialize for a few days. Mayor Plnom said yes terday that no appointment would be made until after the funeral, but in dicated that he would make the ap pointment tomorrow. "It Is possible that some man may be put on the bench temporarily to hold court until a successor to Mr. Bennett la chosen," said the Mayor yesterday. Concerning who may be the ap pointee. Mayor Simon gave no indica tion. Several candidates have already been suggested but It Is not believed that any one of them has assurance of success. Vocal and Instrumental Event. A musical recital will be given In Chrlstensen's Hall, Eleventh and Yam hill streets.

Play Is the Thing. "Personally I would rather play comedy than anything else. I would rather, however, aee serious plays, than comedies. I never pay any attention to the actons when I am watching a play unless they are mo bad I cannot help It. I watch the play and take tbe actors into consideration afterward. Some times I know it is the actors who have made the play and vice versa." Mr. Whiteside Is particularly happy In hla role of David In ZanrwUTs big sermon play "The Melting Pot." It la a wonderful story, this . unerthodox and withal simple tale Zangwlll tells. It is heavy with big booming human Interest and makes Its appeal to all classes and races. l,,;..... 7 . ; t '$1 J - miw A mu0 Absolutely Pure Tho only baking powder made from Royal Crape Cream of Tartar No Alum, Ko Lime Phosphate o'clock, under the direction of the Co lumbla Conservatory of Music, and ad mission is by invitation.

They Are Paraded In Scanty Attire ind Then Introduced to Wild Animals at Fair Grounds. With their hands tied behind their backs and with ropes around their necks. 11 freshmen of the University of .Oregon medical department yesterday afternoon stood under a sign reading We are a bunch of rough-neck fresh men and suffered their tight trousers legs to be rolled up, while upon their bare legs were being painted the red. red cross. ' These polite attentions were paid by the sophomore class. The freshmen were subjected to such other tortures as medicos with, a sophomore knowledge of horrors were able to devise. So bedecked by the members of the class who were getting even for last year s treatment, the freshmen marched down Twenty-third street and up Thur- man street to the old Lewis and Clark fair grounds, where they "crossed th burning sands," "rode the goat" and performed such other original feats as the sophomores prescribed for them. Securely blindfolded, still bound and by this time subdued, the freshmen were led to the cage of a Hon, belong ing to a dog and monkey show which winters In the Liberal Arts building. The Hon was aroused by being poked with sticks. His roars were terrify ing. Nevertheless, the freshmen were made to stand beside the cage. Final ly they were made to crawl Into an empty cage, the sophomores saying they were to go in with the king of the Jungle. After all had gone through this, they were bundled over to the auditorium. where several other experiences were awaiting them. Following the customs of their predecessors, the sophomores painted their victims, made them walk across copious quantities of sticky fly paper, and ended by giving them an un expected plunge In a tank of Ice-cold water. Usually the freshmen Initiation Is one of the biggest things in the annals if medical studies in Portland; usually old graduates of the school turn out In force to see that old scores are paid to the new class. Not so this year. The new class was as large as the sopho mores. Upper classmen, however, were there. To show that they could be kind as well as unkind, the sophomores gava the banquet. Several graduates an1 upper classmen attended. The members of the freshmen were: P. A. Benbow. Elmer Anderson, Harry Schwartz. C. Hampton. H. M. Bouvey, C. D. H. Mof fat. C. F. Larsen. Sam Marotte. C. u. Houser, W. E. Bales and W. J. Spencer. PORTLAND MAN WELCOMED National Itose Society, Ivondon, Ac knowledges His Visit. Ralph w.

Jurious effects of coffee and the change In health that Postum can bring, they are glad to lend their testimony for the Deneiit or others. A superintendent of public schools In a Southern state says: "My mother, since her early childhood, waa an In veterate coffee drinker, had been trou bled with her heart for a number of years and complained of that 'weak all ever" feeling and sick stomach. borne time ago, I was making an of ficial visit to a distant part of the country and took dinner with one of the merchants of the nlare. I notice! n ' somewhat peculiar flavour of the cof fee, and asked him concerning It. He replied that it waa Postum. I was so pleased with it that, after the meal was over, I bought a package to carry home with me, anr1 had wife prepare some for the next meal; the whole fam ily liked it so well that we discontin ued coffee and used Postum entirely. "I had really been at times very anx ious concerning my mother's condition. but we noticed that after using Pos tum for a short time, she felt so much better than she did prior to Its use, and had little trouble with her heart and I no sick aomach: that the headaches were not so frequent, and her general condition much Improved. This con tinued until she was as well and hearty as the rest of us. "I know Postum has benefited myself and the other members of the family, but In a more marked degree In the case of my mother, as she was a vic tim of long standing."
