"WAITING GAME" POPULAR Hawley Lafferty, Out to Succeed TbcmselT, Start Preliminary Campaigning Multnomah I District Xow. Though the field le plentifully n'" piled with -would-llke-to-be" candi dates for Congressional honors, none has com out and definitely announced M candidacy In opposition to either of the state's Representatives In the lower branch of Onirress. HepresAitatlves Hawley and Lfferty wish to succeed themselves, but those who would re lieve them of the responsibility of of ficial life apparently are playing a "waiting (time." At any rate, they are lying low. keeping mum and permitting the ues lng to continue aa to who finally will Itet Into the contest for the Republican nomination to these office. At the same time the ranks of this undecided Troup are Increased by recruits, men for whom incipient booms hare been started In dlfferenct sections of the three Congressional districts In the last week. Hawley Please tVKk Trls. Hawley will be a candidate to suc ceed hlmielf from the Klrst District, as It has been reorganised, and LafTerty. who was elected from the Second Dis trict a year atro, will try to succeed himself from the newly-created Third District. Multnomah County. In the last three weeks both Hawley and Laf ferty hare been particularly active, the former bavin made a thorough county-to-county canvass f the entire district he represents. Ills reception at all points was not only cordial but enthusi astic, and he la much gratified with the outlook. Hawley and Lafferty will depart for Washington some time this week to be present when the regular session of Concress Is convened next month. Lf ferty has made the statement that he may obtain a lea re of absence and re turn to Oregon for another two weeks Just before the primaries In April. Most recent of the reported possi bilities" to announce that he probably will oppose Hawley for renominatlon Is A. W. Norblad. City Attorney of As toria. Another possible Hawley op ponent Is V. A. Williams, of Forest Grove. Walter A. IMmlck. Elate Senator from Clackamas County, and George C. Brownell. also of Clackamas, hare been susKcsied as I!rly candidates to con test with Hawley for the Republican nomination, but thus far neither has mustered up sufficient courage . to tarkle the Job. Hut It Is In the Fecond District, con slstlnc of those counties east of the Cascades, that there Is a multiplicity of candidate. More than a dozen fa vored s r.s of that section of the stats have been "mentioned." but In the last week no less than three other "possi bilities" hare been added to the list. They are: John W". MuCullough, of Ontario Prosecuting Attorney of the Ninth Judicial District: George K. Da vis, of Vale. ex-Clrcult Judee of the same district, and Jay 1L lKhbln. of Josrih. newly-elected president of the VrrcvD Wool Growers' Association. The only candidate who Is making an active fight for the nomination so far Is John Jerry) F. Rusk, of La irande. Rusk was Speaker of the House a the last session or the Oregon Lea-lslature. Immediately following ad journment of the legislature. Rusk re moved from Joseph to La Grande and has since been promoting his candi dacy in most aggressive fashion. In connection with the Congressional nomination from this district, friends of the following men have been urging them to gel Into the contest: N. J. Kinnott snd H R. Puller, of The Dalles: Kmm.lt Callahan. Raker; 8. F. Wilson. Athena: George T. Cochran. La Grande: W. H. Brooke, Ontario; W. Lair Thomp son. Lakevlew, and T. J. Mahoney, Heppner. Laker to Have Candidate. L' (Torts of Republicans to center on one candidate from the Third district have not yielded satisfactory results, although the plan baa not been dropped. It la stronclr suspected that J. Andy Madsen. Indorsed by the W'orkingmen'e Political Club, representing one ele ment of organised litbor. for the Con gressional nomination will not qualify and at the proper moment will step down and out and pave the way for Ralph C Clyde, who Is believed to be the bona nde candidate of the trades unionists, to get Into the fight. From time to time the names of Cir cuit Judge KavanaugH; Roarer R, Sln nott. Gus C. Moser. C. N. Arthur and George 8. Shepherd have been pro posed as candidates for this nora m Inatloa at the hands of the Republican voters of Multnomah County. As in the other two districts, these men ap pear to be "slain a- up the situation." At the same time Dr. Harry Lane is said to be quietly making some observation of the same situation with a view to becoming the I democratic candidate. FOLIAGE PEDDLING FREE City Council ItircstalH.

JAN KUllELJK and his wonderful $50,000 "Emperor" violin achieved another remarkable musical triumph at the Helllg Theater last night, winning enthusiastic plaudits from a $4000 house. Every seat was taken, and late comers had to be con tent with standing room at the rear. What is the secret of Kubellk's popu larity, and why does the musical publlo hall him delightedly as one of Its very own T The answer seems to be: he never plays "above" his audience, but takes It Into his confidence: he Is the most skillful programme maker In the rank of world-famous artists: his se lections are Invariably tuneful ones, and he never Inflicts upon a long-suffering audience a puzzling maze of violin gvmnastlcs. called exercises, to show off technique: he makes each phrase a lovely, personal offering: and. lastly, ha plays Into your very soul as if he directed a great white light upon It- ' Vlellalst Jtet Stranger Here. This is Kubellk's ninth world tour, and he has appeared several times In concert in this city, the last occasion being four years ago. The record audi, enea this tour has been the one at the Itoyal Albert Hall. London, England, where the receipts were $14,000. Last night the audience nearly went wild over Kabellk. to such an extant F TAFT SUPPORTERS Washington State to See Real Battle After Tacoma Meet ing December 5. SPECIAL SESSION IS WORRY Plan Is to Secure Control of Various PelrgatJona to State Republican Convention to Laud I-a Pol leue Strength, If Possible. OLTMPIA. Wash.. Nov. J9- Spe- claL) After the meeting in Tacoma on December 6 to discuss the question of a special session, which gathering Governor Hay has promised to attend, the Insurgents of Washington will at tempt to organize- and prepare for the coming campaign. Tha- first battle will bo to secure control of the various delegations to the state Republican convention, so as to send to tha Na tional convention, if possible. La Fol lette" delegates Instead of delegates Instructed to support President Taft again. At the present time tha insurgents are not organized and the special ses sion talk will give them an opportunity to get together. Aa for that special session, few ex pect It to be called, as the question of road legislation Is what will keep away from the meeting many of those who at first favored the idea. Likewise they will also decline to indorse tha movement for fear of the responsi bility that will attach should a pro longed and expensive session result. Graaare Falls to Respond. Secretary Lewis, of the state, grange, who ssnt ont about 600 petitions call ing for a special session, to be signed up by the grangers of the state, says that less than a score of them have been returned and that he will not be present at tha meeting. Master Keg ley, of the grange. Is In the East and he will not be present, so that the grangers will be represented only by members of their legislative commit tee. Senator J. W. Bryan, of Kitsap, who aspires to a seat In Congress from the state-at-large. is also afraid of a spe cial session. He does not advocate It unless the members will agree to be tied down to a programme to consist of a Presidential preference primary and nothing more. To do that, he avers. Is impossible. Just now the question bothering those who would like to get Into of fice is: "What is an InsurgentT" or rather. "How long does one have to be an Insurgent In order to get a chance to run for office?" This Is not so simple a question to answer as It may seem. The Insurgents are not urging a fight to start out with and several men are claiming to be Insurgents whi are regarded as strong factors and able to swing votes. So' far. the answer to the query Is "Did he support PolndexterT" but that rule is causing trouble already. Some think It Is too limited a yardstick for measuring purposes, while others insist that converts shouldn't be ad vanced too rapidly, or there may be dissension In the ran k s. Insurgent leaders declare there Is little possibility of putting an out snd out Insurgent ticket In the field. The Supreme Court fiasco showed the dan ger of that, according to their way of thinking, so they propose to content themselves with merely Indorsing men who stand for the measures they ad vocate Likewise the special session movement Is known to be an Insurgent project and there is trouble In securing an Issue around which they can rally. Troable Interaalty Not Desired. Senator Bryan says thst some would like to see a complete state Insurgent ticket In the field, but that others would fight such a movement as savor ing too much of the old machine meth ods, and no trouble is desired Internally for the present. He believes the In surgents may content themselves with merely indorsing candidates In the National field and letting other mat ters, aside from legislative, severely alone. He declares that there will be enough running for Congress In each district and at large to make the sec ond choice clause operative. If his prediction proves correct the insur gents will have a chance to Indorse more than one man in each place. This question as to whether or not organizations will be effective In the next campaign Is Interesting every state offlclaL The primary fight is sup posed to be a strictly party affair, al though It seldom Is, and then will coma a test as to whether there Is enough left of the old party organizations to put up a good fight. Following the Tacoma session re garding tha question of calling the legislators together, tha Insurgents Intend to try to get together. They are confident that men can be secured In each county to direct the work. If they do this, the Republican and Dem ocratic parties will have fights on their hands, as the insurgents. It is said. that when the music In a selection gave him. say, five or six bars' rest, the audience broke In with enthusiastic ap plause, and might have spoiled the ac curate rendition of the music, had Kubellk not been a collected, resource ful artist to his very finger tips. Com mon sense might have told the too eager enthusiasts to wait until the se lection was concluded. But this very circumstance shows how much of a favorite Kubellk la He had one dozen recalls that were entreaties for more music at any price, so long -as It was violin muslo by the great Kubellk. It Is to the credit of the eminent artist that his head waa not turned by this laudation, and that he was modest, shy and retiring In spite of it alL The women and girls who were "gone" on Kubellk might have waited for him at the stage door, but probably the knowl edge that he is married. Is devoted to his wife and that he Is the father of twins made them pause. Two Encores Glvea. Tha programme waa as printed, the most msgnlflcent offering probably be ing the Tschalkowsky "Concerto in D major." The only encores Kubellk con sented to give were two Randegger numbers: "Plerot Serenade" and "Bo hemian Dance." The piano accompan ist was Kubellk's fellow Bohemian, Ludwlg Schwab, who played with rare sympathy and conspicuous ability. The concert was under the direction of Lois Bteers-Wyna Coman.' NSUR6BHS EAR are not confined to tha Republican party, even if they are the most obstreperous-Then the Socialist vote is worrying the people who follow politics closely. That the Socialists will get a good vote next time is conceded. At the last Judicial election they polled three times as many votes as two years be fore and now few will argue that they will not get 60,000 or better at the coming election. That vote, with the women exercising the right of fran chise for the first time In state affairs, is causing much uneasiness in polit ical circles. At present there Is a lull In political matters, but the Tacoma meeting on the special session question is expected to bring matters forward that will have a big influence In the 1913 primaries and general election. LAD OF 19 IS FOUND DEAD With Bullet Through Brain Andrew Sogra Discovered Near Railroad. ABERDEEN. Wash, Nov. S9. (Spe cial.) Lying on the sidewalk near the Ce-W. R. & N. Company's tracks, in South Aberdeen. Andrew Soga. U years old. waa found today with a bullet through his brain. Three or four feet from the body was found a revolver. The bullet had gone through the brain and came out back of the ear. Considerable mystery surrounds the tragedy. Police Investigation failed to reveal anything but a suicide, but the boy's friends believe he waa murdered. The position of the fatal wound, which was Inflicted on the left side of the head, leada to the belief that he was delib erately shot, because Soga, being light handed, could hardly have committed the deed. Neighbors living In the vicinity of the mill say they heard three shots during the early hours. Friends of Soga, who were with him during the early evening, say the boy was in good spirits. The shot was fired at close range, as the skin on the head Is burned with powder. Soga came from Raymond several days ago and was about to secure a Job in one of the local mills.

DRUGGIST HIT IN RAID EDWARD GLEASOX, COCSIX OP FIGHT PK03LOTEK, ARRESTED. Pharmacy Inspectors Charge San Francisco Merchant With Sell ing Opium to Publio. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 29. At the Instance of Inspector of the State Phar macy Board, a warrant was issued yesterday charging Edward Gleason, a registered druggist, with violation of the state poison law In selling and having in his possession opium and other illicit drugs.' Gleason is one of the druggists named by John Edwards, alleged leader In the opium ring, now under arrest, as the man from whom he obtained part of the J3000 worth of opium found in his room when he was arrested Sunday night. Though Edwards later denied that he had been supplied with the drug by Gleason, the pharmacy Inspectors say they have sufficient other evidence against the druggist to prove that he played a big part in the distribution of opium. Gleason figured prominently several years ago when his drugstore in Mar ket street was twice held up by the "drugstore bandit." Gleason is a cousin of Jack Gleason, one of the promoters of the Jeffries Johnson fight, who is now in New Tork. CHILDREN THAN CASTOR OH, CO. MINIATURE PICTUK Or PACKAGE IM jii ill!
