TTIK MORMNCt O R KGQN TAN. MONDAY, JUNE 3, 1012. 14 L 16EHHI CHICAGO Choice of National Committee' man Depends Upon Result of Convention. DELEGATES SEEK HARMONY Bourno said to Be Willing to Accrpt Place Held by Williams Jndffe (iantenheln May Become Compromise Candidate. Choir of Republican National com mit leeman for Oregon to eucceed Ralph E. William, of Dallas. Incum bent and candidate for re-election, de pend ft larcrly on who receives the nom ination for President In the Chicago convention. Klx of the ten delegates have agreed to defer the election of committeemen until after the National convention has nominated the 'head of the ticket. The object of this post ponement Is to make It possible for the delegation In selecting state com mitteeman to decide upon a man who wtll be In harmony with the party's nominee for the Presidency. The six members of the delegation who are said to favor this arrange ment are Ackerson, Co and McCusker. of Multnomah: Bynon. of Marlon; Hall, of Wasco, and Mwlft, or Baker. They hare concluded that because of tha differences of opinion among them selves as to who should succeed Wil liams, If he Is not re-elected, the man that Is finally named should be ac ceptable to the party's nominee for President and at the same time be In a position to work In harmony with him. Aateaealass le He A wide. I'nder the plan that paa been tenta tively agreed to It la argued by tha delegates that all unnecessary antag onism In the future would be avoided. For a time nearly every, member of the delegation was a receptive candi date for National 'committeeman. Most of the delegates, however, let It become known that tney were candidates In order to be able to avoid committing themselves to the candidacy of any body, rather than with any serious In tention of landing the Job for them selves. With the understanding tliat has been reached by a majority of the del egatlon the numby of candidates has been reduced. In addition to National Committeeman Williams, who wants to hold the Job for another four years, there are at lenst two members of the partv. ntitaide the delegation, who would accept the Job. They are Ben ator Bourne and Frederick W. Mulkry. The name of Bruce Dennis, of I -A Grande, lias been suggested to tha delegation as a good man for com mitteeman, but he has Intimated to some of the delegates that he Is In no ens an aspirant. Mr. Pennls Is tha newly-elected chairman of th Repub lican state central committee, an as signment that carries with It exactions of both time and labor. If the dele gation should be unable to agree In selecting a committeeman, frlenda of Circuit Judge Uantenbeln hare aug gested that he would be a good com promise candidal on whom to unit. (Since th delegation has virtually decided to postpone tha election of a memher of tiie National committee un til th Chicago convention has nom inated Its ticket. It Is believed th se lection of committeeman has been sim plified. Br this arrangement and with the present lineup of available candi dates, the contest for the committee ship clearly would be between Wil liams and Carey. If President Taft la renominated. Williams has been Iden tified with the Taft Administration aa National committeeman for the last four years and Carey ia a supporter of .he J'rrsldent. Cee or Malker Paeetble. If Roosevelt should receive the nom ination, for similar reasons th con test would he between Coe and Mul key. Coo supported th ex-Prnsldent aggressively In th primary campaign In this atate. It waa Mulkry, however, who directed that campaign. Should Roosevelt lose in th con vention and bolt, there la more than a probability that th Oregon Republic ana, for a time at least, would have two National committeemen. This pos sible contingency would double tha chances of Coe, Carey. Mtilkey and William. Although McCusker would not refuse th position if offered Mm. he I not ao actlv aa his rivals. But McCtiskr, who conducted Henator Ia Follett' Presidential campaign In this state. Is quietly waiting until th smoke of battle with which the Chl-rea-n convention will be enveloped haa cleared. l entertains, a hop that the Wisconsin man will be nominated. Hhould thla ha span, McCusker ms y be depended upon to go after th com mitteeship In earnest. And with 1m Fnlletta nominated h probably would Is rid tli Job. aa he la the only avowed 1-a Follott man In th delegation. KWIFT r.WORS WAITING PI.AX Kastern Oregon Delegate Vislta City on Way to Chicago Convention.

Bwlft. of Baker, a member cf th Ore gon delegation te tha Republican Na tional convention, at the Imperial yes terday. "Th committeeman should be a man who Is In full sympathy with th Presidential candidate. By par sulna such a plan In th election of committeeman, ndleea antagonism will be prevented and th party will be given Increased prestlgs throughout th star." Mr. Swift passed th day In Portland going to Seattle laat night on Ms way to th convention city.

"WHY SO?" THEY PROTEST Tlrose W ho Will Represent Republi cans of State Say They Have N'o Tickets Yet and Are Peeved at Preference Shown. Several of the delegates from Ore gon to the Republican National conven tion have loat interrst temporarily ji the Intensity of the contest between the Taft and the Roosevelt forces for control of the Chicago gathering. They have even forgotten all about the election of a Netlunal committeeman for thin atate. Quest by Individual mem be ra of the delegation for support for the fleeting honor of being chairman of the delegation or member of the platform committee has been aban doned. They are peeved. And the cause of It all is that tt.ey have learned reserved admission tickets to the big convention hall In Chicago have been supplied a party of 10 young 'women excursionists whose Itinerary lands tnera In the convention city on the opening day of that President-making assemblage. Rates te Uelde Party. The party will consist of young wo men from different parts of the state who are to be given a tour of tha United Statra under the auspices of the Pacific Northwest and chaperoned by Phillip 8. Bates, publisher of that periodical. Just how Mr. Batea and the young women procured tlielr reservations in the convention hall, none of the dele gatea pretenda to know. The ftct that they obtained the tlcketa aufflces to all Intenta and 'purposes for the pre vailing aggrieved atate of mind of tha less fortunate delegatea. What la troubling the delegates most Is not the fact that this small group of comelysuffraglsta haa been accommo dated. The men who will aasUt to nominate a candidate for PresiH.-nt frankly confess that they only wish every fair auffraglst In the land might be able to attend the proceedings of the convention, provided there . wat room for their accommodation. But In view of the limited area of th floor apace of the convention hnll and the corresponding limitation In 'he number of admiaalon tlcketa that can be uaed, the somewhat disgruntled delegatea are Juat selfish enough to take the position that for once tha men folks should first be considered In th distribution of the ticket res ervations. Delegate Ar Net Notified. ' Th only Information th delegatea have aa to tlcketa la that gleaned from th newspaper reports, which an nounced that tickets of admission to th convention would not be given out until th day before th convention was called to order. "Of course, w asaume that we will hsv at leaat one ticket to entitle ua to admission." said an out-of-town delegate, yesterday, "but we are not real sure of that. Certain It la that we have received no assurance that we will have an additional ticket tor a friend. I do not wish to appear to be selfish In the matter, but It would seem that, with the demand for admission to th convention so greatly in excess of the capacity of the convention hall, ticket ahould be distributed among those who take an Interest In politics. ;pf course, the young women will have a good time and probably b highly entertained by the convention. They may be expected to applaud when the gallery applaods and, two weeks later, when they arrive home and have time for sober reflection, they will be asking themselves what It waa all about, anyway." It haa been auggested by one or two of the delegates that National Commit teeman Williams waa the donor of the 1 tlcketa to-the party chaperoned by Mr. Batea. This suspicion has grown until It Is almost an actual belief with various members of the delegation. In fact. It already bas aasumed the pro portions that Mr. Williams will be re quired to establish a complete alibi If b expects te retain the good wlahea, of the delegates, te say nothing of their aupport In his candidacy for another term aa National committee man. By the time the convention meets, however, snd the delegates receive In dividual tickets and possibly one r two for their friends, they will prob ably have forgotten all about the 10 handsome young women from their home state who beat them to the ticket distributer. But It would not be ad visable today upon meeting a member of the delegation to Inquire even cas ually If he has received any admission tickets to th Chicago convention. HONOR SYSTEM IS FAILURE Patrolman Bewler'g Experiment End With Subject in Jail. After trying out a little "honor' system of Ma own. Patrolman E. R. Bewley. finding It a failure, walked Walter. Spruanre, th beneficiary. Into th police atatlon yesterday and placed against him a charge of vagrancy, un derscored. Patrollng the beat at Sec ond and Burnalde streets. Bewley Is soma expert on vagr&nts. and he hands Spruance th palm. Th prisoner Is a consistent Inmate of the City Jail, and waa released from hla most recent term only a fw days ago. Bewley, who had caused his ar rest, listened to bis pleas for a chance to make good, and offered Mm em ployment at hla home. The officer waa still wary, however, and took the pre caution of putting SprOance on a car and paying the fare direct to the con ductor. Spruance reached hla destination, pulled two weed, asy members of the family, and then announced that he didn't like the work. He walked back to Second and Burnald atreet and Into th arms xf hla benefactor. Already Informed of the- failure of hla phi lanthropy, Bewley was prepared, and placed Spruance under arrest. CONCERT INCREASES FUND Nearly $1000 Is Secnred for Bene fit of Baby Home. Nearly $100 waa realised by tha sale of tickets for th benefit of St. Agnes Baby Horn concert given yes terday afternoon at tb Ilcllig Theater. There was a large attendance, one of the auditors being Archbishop Chris tie, and the splendid programme, built along poular lines, wss appreciated, and encores were numerous. Those who gave tha musical treaf were Madame Jennie Norelll, coloratura so prano; Dr. August Mllner, Irish bari tone; Edith Haines-Kuester. piano ao companlst, snd these members of 'St. Mary's Academy Orchestra: Mlasea Mary Chapman, Mary Gear In. Margue rite Magtnnls, ITlta, Manning. Agnea Duffy. Irene Murphy, Josephine Wag ner, I'atrliia Moylan, Matilda Jennings, Helen demons. A critical and appreciative estimate of the singing; of Madame Norelll and Dr. Mllner has recently appeared In The Oregonian. and the artistic man ner In which these soloists .sang yea terday deepened the favorable Impres sion they have already made. One of the more Important numbers waa the duet "Crudele pen lie Fln'ora" (Moxart), so finely rendered by Madame Norelll and Mr. Mllner that It had to be re peated. Their voices blend charmingly together. Madame Norelll mad new laurel by the splendid vocallsm with which she sang the "Polonaise" from Thomas'- "Mignon," and ah alao won favor with "Nympha and Shepherds," "Kathleen Mavourneen," "The Little Red Lark." and "April Morn." Dr. Mllner shone In Bizet's "Toreador." Ijeoncavallo's "Proglogue" from T pagllarci." Damroach'a "Danny Dever" and Lohr'a "A Little Jrlsri Girl." Tha latter. a sung by Dr. Mllner, mad on of the biggest hits of the entire Portland concert season. Dr. Mllner leavea today for Germany, where he will sing In opera In the early Fall In Breslau. The girls of St. Mary s Acad emy Orchestra played with fine abil ity and their atage deportment la ad mirable. Mrs. Kueater msda a most satisfying accompanist. Father O'Hara was business manager of the concert and he handled the various details with consplcuoua success. E MACHINERY INSTALLATION TO BE DONE THIS WEEK. With Removal of Falsework.
