TTTF JTOHXTXG OREGOXIAN. MONDAY. SEPTEMBER 16. 1013. 7 VILSONiSTHORN IN ROOSEVELT'S SIDE Colonel Realizes He Cannot Hope to Win Without Big Democratic Vote. INCONSISTENCY IS SHOWN Censure of Republicans Y1V Would Go to Democratic Candidate rVc companles Appeal to Demo crats to Bolt to Him. BY HARBT J. BROWS. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash ington. Sept. IS. -The presence of a third party In. the field this year has most seriously complicated the political situation and each day seems to de velop something new and. strange. This is only natural, however, in view of th fact that Colonel Roosevelt, heading the new party. Is seeking to disrupt both old parties, and the old parties are bent on the successful formation of a permanent third party which ultimate ly would displace either the Republican or the Demc-cratio organisation. In some of his recent speeches Colo nel Roosevelt has professed to have in formation that large numbers of Re publicans are preparing to . vote for Woodrow Wilson in November, and he uses this declaration as justification for his appeal to "progressive Democrats" to vote for him. He haa been inclined to censure severely those Republicans who intend to vote for W ilson, and yet. at the same time, ha asks Democrats to desert their party in order to In sure his success. Verjaoat Ffa;urea Illuminating. As a matter of fact there may be some basis for the suspicion of Colonel Roosevelt as regards Republicans who ro inclined to vote for Wilson, and particularly would this suspicion bo likely to be fulfilled If it appeared, a the close of the campaign, that there was no chance of re-electing President Tatt For eveh the recent election in Vermont seems to Indicate an early purpose of some Republicans to vote . the Democratic ticket tnis year; or not Republicans, then independen voters who four years ago voted with th Republicans as against the Demo crats. The Vermont figures show that the Republican candidate for Governor re ceived 26,239 votes, the Democrat 20,360 and the Roosevelt Progressive canal data 15.800. On this bases the Demo crats show a gain of 437 over their vcte for Governor In 1S08 and the com bined Republican and Roosevelt Pro gressive vota this year was 353 below the Republican vote for Governor four years ago. Allowing for a normal in crease in the Democratic vote. It would appear1 either that more than 3000 voters who supported the Republican candidate for Governor in 1908 had gone to the support of the Democratic candidate this year. Democratic Aid Eenential. Colonel Roosevelt is wise enough to know that he cannot be elected by the third party unless he can bring Into that party hundreds of thousands of Democrats. It Is demonstrated that he cannot get enough former Republican votes to overcome the Democratic strength and he must have large num bers of Democratic recruits to give him the necessary plurality. Working on this basis, he condemns both the Democratic and Republican parties controlled by the interests and the bosses and antagonistic to the people and couples this with an attacJc upon Woodrow Wilson, alleging that he won his nomination by the aid of the bosses. "The victory at Baltimore for Mr. Wil son was achieved because the bosses finally concluded that his victory meant their victory. said the Colonel at Des Moines. Such an assertion from Colonel Roosevelt, which is In line with similar declarations he has made elsewhere In the campaign. Is not only unfair and untrue, but Is Known to be untrue by everyone who attended the Baltimore convention. Fairness to Governor Wilson demands denial of that inde fensible statement. There never was a time at the Baltimore convention, af ter Bryan had made his attack upon the bosses, when a vast majority of the delegates were not Individually In favor of Wilson's nomination, and only the fact that scores of Wilson men were bound by instructions for some other candidate prolonged the convention. Delejrates tor Wilson. From the outset the erthusiusm at Baltimore was for Wilson. Compared to it there was little enthusiasm for Clark, Underwood or any other avowed candidate. When it had been demon strated that Clark could not win and when delegates, tired by long and dreary sessions, concluded that their instructions were no longer binding, the tide turned to Wilson and he grad ually plied up strength in spite of the bosses and over their moat determined opposition. If ever a candidate won against the opposition of bosses it was at Baltimore. Colonel Roosevelt is not so ignorant of what transpired at Baltimore as xealy to believe that Wilson was nomi nated by the bosses. He knew pretty well what transpired there, what in fluences brought about Wilson's nomi nation, and it waa a bitter disappoint ment to him when Wilson came -out victorious. No less authority than his own son, interviewed after the Balti more convention, said significantly: 'Dad was praying for Clark." No doubt he was, for Clark was the candidate backed by the bosses. He wa3 re garded by Republicans as an easy man to beat and had he been the nominee of the Democratic party there unquestion ably would have been a substantial nocking of Democrats to the third party. In nominating Wilson, the real choice of a convention which had established and recorded its progressive inclina tion, the Democrats placed a great ob stacle In the path of the Colonel, for they named the one man in their party best equipped to hold In line the Dem ocrats to whom the third party is now appealing. theme Is handled in the latest Sarah Bernhardt picture. An Indian tragedy, "Geronimo's Last Raid," a two-reel special, was the main pictorial attraction at the Star Theater and called forth much favorable com ment. This film has a historical and education value. "Aunt Jane's Will" Is a rather clever comedy. The Astoria Salmon Industry, taken by the Star's special camera man is unusually inter esting and gave a very clear concep tion of a business. The Carson Trio provided the musical part of the pro gramme and met with frequent en cores. "Caleb West" from the novel of the same name, will be next Wednes day's feature. For thrilling sensation the Arcade offered "The Frontier Child." In two reels. A tribe of real Indians and a regiment of regular soldiers assist In making the picture almost speak. "The Dawn of Passion" exploits the birth of love in simple natures, and "Cupid Versus Cigarettes" turns loose a full reel of laughs. The music was fully up to the usual standard.

The feature at the Peoples Theater yesterday was "The Birth of the Lotus Blossom." It portrayed faithfully a traditional tale of old Japan, the days when the Samurai or two sworded men ruled the land. The picture was a great novelty because it was the first time that a film by an American com pany was enacted by real genuine Jap anese. "Love's Serenade" was a com edy. The other films were standard. That Trio celebrated their return to the Peoples by putting on In costume and with special scenery and effects, "The Armorer's Song" from the opera "Robin Hood." Next Wednesday the feature will be "Queen Elizabeth's Token," and deals with the tragio fate of Sir Walter Raleigh. This same Leslie II. Oliver. Leslie H.

Heavy Wind Blows Dalles City on Sand She Stays There Until ' Bailey Gatzert Comes. . Although the water in the Columbia is at its lowest stage of the year dur ing the present month the Japanese steamship Unkla Maru No. 2, with a cargo of lumber for Hongkong, for the China Import & Export Lumber Company, passed down the river Satur day to Astoria drawing 2614 feet with out any hindrance. Captain A. L. Pease was the river pilot in charge and he says that there was plenty of water under the steam shin all the way and caused no anxiety, but the thick and foggy weather caused him to slow down several times. The vessel went to sea yesterday afternoon. On the upper Columbia Saturday af ternoon it is reported by steamboat men that the wind blew harder than for years, but only one accident of any consequence resulted. The steamer Dalles City received the full lorce or the blow a short distance below Stevenson and was driven on the sands there so high that she was unable to get Into deep water again and re-, malned there until pulled ff yester day by tha steamer Bailey Gatzert. While the wind blew nara along tne Portland waterfront the cruises of the police harbor patrol failed to discover that any damage had resulted.

Special Car Ordered by Trio From Drug Store Bloodhounds Fol low Trail to Oarllne. SPOKANE, Sept. 15. With a bullet hole in the head and the skull crushed the body of . .D. Pollock, a public chauffeur, was found early today two miles north of Spokane. The murder is surrounded by mystery. Three men visited a drugstore in the northern part of the city last night and one telephoned a taxicab company. He asked for a certain make of ma chine and when informed that the company had none of that make, asked that one be secured and sent to the drugstore. The taxicab manager called Pollock, who owned and drbve a car of the kind demanded and he answered the call. One member of the trio got into the car with Pollock and they drove away, presumably crossing the river to the main nart of the city. The car with Pollock driving returned to the drug store later and the other members of the party got in and were driven away. Btmters found the car with Pollock's body lying nearby on the ground. Bloodhounds "were taken today to the spot where the automobile was found and followed a trail to a carline half a mile away, there it was lost The police believe that the three men proposed a robbery and when Pollock refused to aid in It he was slugged and shot. man and California Barrel Company tracts, which comprise in the neighbor hood of 800 acres, and will Increase the syndicate's holdings to the neigh borhood of 3,000,000,000 feet of timber.

Surveyors are in the field, but Just where the proposed line will be located has not been definitely decided, so far as can be learned. The route under consid eration is down the Lewis and Clark River, while another plan is said to be to Join with the Astoria Southern Rail way Company and extend its road to the Nehalem River and beyond.
