TITE MORNING ORECONIAN, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER ff, 1910. BEPUBLICiS WIN STATE CONTEST Governor Is Re-elected With Large Plurality. KENTUCKY VOTE SURPRISE Morrow, Kopublican, Elected Ex ecutive Party Reported Leading in Maryland. fContfnud From First Pane.) Theodore Kooeevelt. who, followinsr his fiUher into public life, woi a seat in the assembly from Nassau coun by sendiag down to defeat Ellas RaJf. flu merlcan expeditionary force pri vate and a tailor's boy. Ohio and Kentucky, the only two states holding elections yesterday In which prohibition was a direct Issue, both enrolled themselves in the army of voluntary abstinence, on the face of partial returns tabulated at mid nifrht. With more than half of the state reported. Secretary of State Smitn predicted it would be found Ohio had voted dry on all four prohibition pro posals submitted to the voters and that the majorities would epproxi ir.ate 75.000. One of these proposals was offered in the form of ieferen dum on the legislature's action in ratifying the 18th amendment to the federal constitution. Another pro posal, also a referendum, dealt with the. prohibition enforcement act adopted by the state legislature. The other two proposals were constitu tional amendments touching cn pro hibition. Kentucky Goes Dry. In Kentucky it appeared that the state-vide prohibition act had been carried by a large majority. In New Jersey, which was one of five states holding gubernatorial elections, prohibition was an indirect issue. Despite the assertion of State Cintroller Newton A. K. Bufibee, re publican candidate for governor, that prohibition was an accomplished fact because It is incorporated in the fed eral constlt-ilion, Senator Edward 1. Edwards, tho democratic candidate, made it an issue by declaring that he will use. aU th3. .legal machinery cf the state to make New jersey "as wet os the Atlantic ocean." Vhil2 tha result of the New Jersey gubernatorial election was in doubt rnrly today, Edwards was leading liis opponent ty 127 votes. This lead, however, was beirg increased sharply as returns poured in from democratic strongholds, the last to report. BOSTON. Nov. 4. The elate com plete unofficial) gives for governor: Coolidgf!. republican, 317,769; Long, democrat, 183.014. The. vote for Coolidge was the larg est ever received by a candidate for governor in this state. The "law and order" slogan of Gov ernor Coolidge, based, upon his stand against the striking Boston policemen, brought out a heavy reserve republican Vote. The democrats also worked hard to bring the voters to the polls, with the result that the total vote was one of the heaviest ever cast. Returns from 677 precincts out of 974 from 311 cities and towns out of 353, outside of Boston, gave for governor: Coolidge, 185,189; Long, 02,065. Other Republicans Elected. In Boston Long's plurality of near ly 20,000 last year Was cut to less than half that figure today. Kred J. Burrell, republican candi date for state treasurer, and the other nominees on the state ticket were elected by large pluralities. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 4. Edwin P. Morrow, republican, today was elected governor of Kentucky, over Governor James t. Black, democrat, by a large majority. Jefferson county, including Louis ville, complete unofficial, gives Mor row, republican, for governor, a ma jority of B063. The cams county two years ago gave Stanley, democrat, a majority of 4063. Black's Defeat Conceded. Morrow's majority is estimated at from 16,000 to 20,000. Haynes Carter, personal manager for Governor Black, in a statement conceded Black's de feat by from 8000 to 10.000. Unofficial returns from eastern Kentucky, where it was expected that the democratic nominee would cut normal republican majorities, showed Morrow holding his own and in some cases exceeding figures in the guber natorial election four years ago. In the western end of the state there vas a considerable falling off of dem ocratic normal majorities, while in Jefferson county the republican can didate not only overturned a ma jority of 4063 for Stanley, democrat, two year3 ago, but turned it into a republican victory by approximately 000. Prohibition Probably Won. Figures on the two constitutional Amendments seemed to indicate that the state-wide prohibition amendment had carried by a large majority. Tab ulators had few figures on the amend ment which would remove officers who failed to protect prisoners from mobs. y The issues In the campaign were local. During the campaign Governor Black made speeches favoring the league of nations. Mr. Morrow was silent on the subject, but his managers, iir pub' lished statements, asserted he op posed it. BALTIMORE, Nov. 4. The result of today's election in Maryland was in doubt at midnight. V ith less than ne-half of the city of Baltimore heard from, Attorney-General A. C. Ritchie, democratic nominee for gov ernor, was leading his republican op ponent, Harry W. Nice, state attorney of Baltimore, by about 1000 in Balti wore city. Returns 'ot Definite. Based on these figures the demo crats were claiming that Mr. Ritchie would carry Baltimore by about 1200 Few definite returns had been re ceived from the counties, however, and it seemed probable that the re sult would not be known for sev eral hours. LINCOLN, Neb.., Nov. 4. Nebraska voters today selected 100 delegates to the state constitutional convention which meets in Lincoln the first Mon day in December. All the candidates ran on a non-partisan ticket, and there was lax interest, the only issue being an alleged effort by the non-partisan league to elect enough members of that organization to control the con vention. Returns indicate there will not be to exceed 20 non-partisan league delegates, perhaps not half that number. In Lincoln interest centered in prop ositions of the city to take over the street railway company under munici pal ownership and to issue bonds for municipal extensions of the water and lighting plants. Early indications were that the bond propositions car BY ried and the car company proposal was defeated. TRENTON, N. J.. Nov. 5. Edward I. Edwards, democrat, was elected governor of New Jersey yesterday over Newton A. K. Bugbee, republic an. With only 43 districts in the state missing, he had a plurality of 10,575. As returns were received from the democratic strongholds in the northern part of the state an early advantage held by Bugbee was wiped out and Hudson county sent Edwards Into the lead with a safe pluralitv. The vote in 1968 districts out of 2011 was. Edwards, 206,616; Bugbee, 196,040. COLUMBUS. O., Nov, 5. After less than six months of actual prohibition, Ohio today voted to remain in the dry column, apparently by a majority three times larger than that by which it fiiEt voted prohibition a year ago. At midnight Secretary of State Smith declared that dry majorities in four prohibition proposals voted upon today would reach 75,000. JACKSON, Miss.. -Nov. 4. The Mis sissippi democratic ticket was elected In today's general election by a plu rality of approximately 50.000, the socialist state candidates, which fur nished the only opposition to the democrats, polling less than 10,000 votes. Lee M. Russell, present lieutenant governor, was elected governor, and H. H. Casteel was chosen liteutenant governor. James T. Lester, grand son of former Governor Poindexter, was the socialist nominee for gover nor. The legislature will be democratic throughout, as no opposition ticket was put in the field in the districts. All counties went democratic. CLEVELAND. Nov. 4. Incomplete returns at midnight indicated that Johnny Kilbane, featherweight cham pion pugilist, democratic candidate for city council in the first ward, had been defeated- bv Councilman a i? Dittrick,- republican. CHICAGO, Nov. 4 Earlr returns from today's state-wide election for constitutional convention delegates ndicated tonight that the three nuhllo policy questions had generally car ried in Chicago and Cook county dis tricts by about two to one. These questions were designed to instruct convention delegates and were termed the initiative and referendum, the gateway amendment and public own ership. DALLAS, Texas. Nov. 4. Renorts tonight from over the state indicating one or tne lightest votes ever polled in Texas in a state-wide election was cast today when voters acted on six proposed constitutional amendments and a resolution calling for a consti tutional convention. Several hours before the noils closed some precincts reported only an insignificant percentage of the normal vote had been polled. This kick oi interest In the Issues at stake was declared to be prevalent through out the state. What interest there was seemed to center in the constitutional conven tion resolution and the amendment that would authorize the e-nvernnr tn issue $75,000,000 In bonds fr hard- surfacing of roads. Other amendments would allow Galveston county and the city of Galveston to issue $5,000,000 In bonds tor the purpose of erecting protective works, including a sea wall exten sion; would raise the constitutional tax for confederate pensions: would authorize cities, towns and counties to levy special taxes for permanent improvements and would provide for convicts to share in the profits of the state penitentiary system. MAYOR ROLPH RE-ELECTED E. E. SCIIMITZ, CONVICTED OF BRIBERY, LOSES 2 TO 1. Police Judge Iieads for District Attorney Over C. M. Flckert, Prosecutor of Moonoj Case. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 4. Mayor James Rolph has been re-elected by a majority of nearly two to one, it was apparent early tonight, on the face of incomplete returns from all parts of San Francisco. Incomplete returns from 405 out of 549 precincts at 10:30 tonight gave Rolph B378, Schmitz 3473. Rolph's managers pre dicted a majority of 36,000 for the mayor. Police Judge Matthew Bradv had a slight lead over Charles M. Flckert, incumbent, for district attorney, the vote standing Brady, 4778; Fickert, 43ol. Judge Brady's headquarters declared that he undoubtedly would oe eiectea. Eugene E. Schmitz, three times mayor, convicted of bribery in the su perior court, but freed by a reversal in the district court of appeals, made his fight against Rolph on a platform of lower taxes. Fickert, prosecutor of the so-called preparedness day bomb cases, which resulted in the conviction and sen tencing to life imprisonment of Thomas J. Mooney and Warren Bil lings, directed his fight from a sick bed. Nine supervisors, two police juderes and other city officials also were elected. SPOKANE HITS SALARIES Proposal to Increase City Commis sioners' Pay Defeated. SPOKANE, Wash., Nov. 4. With 100 out of 177 precincts complete and partial returns from others. Leonard Funk, John C. Argall and Maurice Smith are leading a field of 12 can didates for city commissioner, three to be elected. The city voted down a proposed in crease in salary for the city commis sioners by a majority of apparently two or three to one. All of the other propositions submitted to the voters are believed to have carried with the exception of an advisory proposition, which would authorize the city coun cil to take steps looking toward the acquisition of a municipal power plant. The vote on this proposition is extremely close, with late returns in dicating its possible defeat. Funk and Argall are believed to have been elected by first-choice votes and Smith is running ahead on a tabulation of all classes of votes cast. John G. Rogers and William J. Coates are in fourth and fifth places, respectively. POLICE HOLD DESERTER Three Prisoners Reported Escaped From Fort Vancouver. Three prisoners escaped from the military guardhouse at Fort Van couver, Wash., last night, according to a report telephoned the Portland police. Details of the escape were not received here. The men who escaped were: Frank B. Lorenzo, 23 years old; K. K, Keener, 24 years old; and William Adams, 21 years old. Inspectors Hill and Morris arrested Lorenzo as a deserter. At the time of his arrest, he, is alleged to have boasted that he had escaped from the prison at Fort Leavenworth. Kan., and that no jail could hold him. PARTY MEN PLEASED AT BAY STATE VOTE Democratic Leaders Desire Defeat in Massachusetts. COAL STRIKE INVOLVED Re-election of Governor Coolidge Viewed Indorsement of Firm Policy in Miners' Walkout.. OREGON NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Nov. 4. Administration demo crats, while declining to be quoted, were willing to express quite em phatically their satisfaction at the first election news from Massachu setts tonight, although it forecasted a decided republican victory. The administration looked to the result in Massachusetts for a vindication of the government's action in connec tion with the coal strike. There has been little said about it, but some of the leaders in this democratic administration have been as uneasy as the republicans over the Massachusetts election. No republi can will ever be able to say honestly that the republican candidate for governor in Massachusetts has naa anything but the well wishes of the topmost men surrounding President Wilson. Today's election result in the old Bay State is regarded as bringing a settlement f the coal strike several days nearer, because in the last days of the campaign speakers for Gover nor Coolidge were not content to let the issue rest merely on the pledge of Richard H. Long, democratic can didate for governor, to reinstate the striking Boston policemen. These speakers opened up the entire issue of bolshevism and asked the voters if they wanted any more nationaliza tion of industry after the experience with war-controlled rallroadB. Strike Situation Reassuring. The word which has been reaching official Washington today with ref erence to the eoal strike is much more reassuring than press dispatches have so far Indicated. Reports in dicate that the only reason more min ers have not returned to work Is the lack of protection afforded by the government. Just as Soon as the proper distribution of troops is made there are reasons to believe that thousands more workmen will go back to the mines. That Acting President John Lewis of the United Mine Workers appre ciates the necessity of saving his face is seen in his statement of this after noon that the "machinery for a joint system of bargaining is still intact." The position of the government, however, is that unless President Lewis and his executive board, who are responsible for this strike which was called without a referendum of the miners, take action to call it off they will be treated as outlaws in the settlement. Palmer Bom Grsvrs. And Incidentally, it might be men tioned that out of all this industrial chaos of the laBt few days a most animated boom for the democratic presidential nomination has developed. The candidate is Attorney-General Palmer, and the growth of his popu larity among democrats both in con gress and in high executive places who only a few days ago were shout ing McAdoo or someone else is evi dent everywhere In the capital. soviet ones women ALL CITIZENS CP TO AGE OF 48 ARE MOBILIZED. Food Shortage So Acute That Even Soldiers Are Starving. New Army Developing. WASHINGTON. Nov. 4. Unofficial advices to the state department to day reported that the population of Petrograd up to the age of 48 years was being mobilized to defend the city. Women have been drafted for the digging of trenches, the advices said, but added that the report that hostages from Petrograd were placed on barges in the Neva, and the barges then sunk, could not be confirmed. The scarcity of food is now so great that some of the soldiers are starv ing, the reports said. The bolshevik! have been forced again to retreat from Krasnaia Selo. The advance of General Yudenitch from the Finnish border towards Petrograd was forced back by superior bolshevik forces. Secret figures from bolshevik sources place the disabled locomo tives at the present time at 68 per cent, as compared with 40 per cent disabled last May. The landed peasants in Moscow, Vologda and Nishni Novgorod are revolting against the requisition and mobilization of the bolshevik regime and are organizing wherever possible a "green" army. This movement seems more economic than political but possesses possibilities of develop ing into a real menace to the bolshe viki. According to a Helsingfors news paper, the Finnish riksdag, after i heated debate, gave the government a vote of confidence Sunday, 70 to 44, The premier in deb-.te said that Fin land would continue to be a bulwark against bolshevism, but that the gov ernment will avoid every interfer ence in Russian affairs tending to offend the national feelings of Rus- LADY ASTOR AMBITIOUS EX-AMERICAN ASPIRES TO SEAT TJT COMMON'S. First Official Speech in Campaign Made In Plymouth Premier Lloyd George Defended. PLYMOUTH, Nov. 4. (By the Asso ciated Press.) Lady Astor today made her first official speech in the cam paign which is to determine whether an American-born woman will be the first woman to sit in the house of commons. She told the Associated Press correspondent that she thought It quite appropriate that a daughter of Virginia, the first English settle ment in the United States, peopled by west country folks, should become the representative of that section of Eng land in parliament. At noon Lady Astor drove in her carriage to the Almshouse, where dur ing a 20-minute stay she greeted. talked with and chided good-naturedly nearly 50 residents all old women. She asked one of them how she was feeling, and the woman answered. Middling," whereupon Lady Astor re called that in Virginia they frequently id: Just loafin", achin' round." She Invited each to attend a wom en'! meeting in the afternoon and asked each to vote for her. Many of tnem promised to do both. Lady Astor next visited a tenement house, where, standing in the dirty roadway, she talked for several min utes with Women and children lean ing over the balconies fronting each of the four stories of the building from which much washing hung. She invited questions and the invitation was complied with in great volume. Then she defended Premier Lloyd George and silenced the champions of the probable labor contender. W. T. Gay, pointing out that he was really not the labor candidate, but an in dependent laborlte and had boasted that he hftd evaded military service. GOOD WILL BODY FORMS PORTLAND INDUSTRIES ELECT PERMANENT OFFICERS. Robert II. Ituglics Heads Organiza tion Aiming to Employ Waste Materials to Relieve Needy Ones. "Permanent officers were elected and an organizing committee formed when charter members of the Port land Good Will Industries met last night at the Multnomah hotel. Thirteen of the 25 charter members were present. Robert It. Hughes, editor of the Pacific Christian Advocate, was elect ed president. A. H. Tasker is vice- president, J. W.

Beharrell, Joseph C. Roberts and Rob ert E. Allen. The executive officers, together with Dr. Youngson and an attorney to be selected by the president, form the organising committee which will take steps to incorporate the new organi sation. The work of the concern will follow the plan of the work Of the Morgan Memorial church of Boston, Mass., pioneer church in the move ment. The local organization was ef fected according to the plan of the board of home missions of the Metho dist Episcopal Church, which plans to have a "good will industry" in every town of more than 100,000 inhabitants. It will be self-supporting and will not be run for profit. The move Is not confined to a single church or denomination, and all churches in Portland will be asked to lend support. While plans for the Industry are Hot yet In shape, it Is ex pected that it will partake of the na ture Of a reclamation service, dealing in second-hand materials and turning out the same material to the benefit of needy Portland people. The insti tution is expected to provide work for many men and women now unem ployed, and will thus aid in solving more than one civic problem. CLARK IS FOUND GUILTY McKENZlE MAN CONVICTED OF SECOND-DEGREE MCRDER. Jury Holds Defendant Responsible for Death of C. 'Ii. Taylor, Killed During Hunting Trip. EUGENE. Or., Nov. 4. The jury In the case of the state against Martin A. Clark, McKenzie river rancher, accused of the murder of Charles L. Taylor, road supervisor at McKensle bridge, late tonight returned a ver dict of guilty of murder in the sec ond degree, after having been, out a little less than five hours. The trial lasted eight day and at tracted a great deal of attention owing to the prominence of the man whom Clark was accused of killing. The murder is alleged to have been committed on July 25 of this year. Clark and Taylor, who were working in a road crew near the summit of the Cascade mountains over 20 miles above McKenzle bridge, went into the mountains to hunt deer to obtain meat for the camp. . The next day Clark returned alone and stated that he and his companion had become separated. He said that Taylor had failed to meet him at the appointed spot and he cam on in. A week later Taylor's body was found with a bullet hole through it. He had been shot from behind. The evi dence was entirely circumstantial. CABINET MEMBERS VOTE OFFICIAL- BUSINESS DELAYED BY ELECTIONS. President Wilson Cnable to Go to Princeton, N. J., to Cast Bal lot; House Takes Recess. WASHINGTON, Nov. 4. With sev eral members of President Wilson's cabinet in their home towns today to cast their ballots, the cabinet did not hold its regular Tuesday meet ing. It was expected to assemble later in the week, however, to dis cuss the coal strike and the appoint ment of a commission on industrial unrest. Cabinet officers absent included Attorney-General Palmer, who was at his home in Stroudsburg, Pa., and Secretary Glass, who was in Lynch burg, Va. Secretary Baker had ob tained an absentee's ballot from Cleveland and voted by mail.

The house of representatives was not in session, having, recessed so members from states where elections were being held could return home. The senate, however, continued its discussion of the peace treaty. SHIP ARBITRATION ASKED Germans Answer Demand for Ves sels Sold to Holland. COPENHAGEN, Nov. 4. Germany has replied to the inter-allied note de manding the surrender to the allies and associated powers of German ships turned over during the war to shipping companies in the Nether lands and which are at present in German ports.1 Germany offers to arbitrate the question. "We are ready to submit," says the German note, "to an arbitral decision based on an agreement between the allies and associated powers and the Netherlands, even should this decision be contrary to our views." y LOSES IN NEW YORK CITY Three Judicial Candidates Seem to Be Beaten. ALDERMAN VOTE CLOSE Hearst Attack on Governor. Smith Conceded as Factor In Result of Gotham Balloting. NEW YORK, Nov. 4. Tammany Hall apparently went down to defeat In the municipal election tolay. All three of its candidates for the su preme court bench seemed to have lost. With returns lacking from 223 dls tricts out of 948 in the first judicla district. Justice J. E. Newburger, who was denied a renomination by the democrats and then placed in the field by the republicans, had 125,713 votes while Irwin Untermyer, 33 years old, his opponent, had 83,071. Major Philip J. McCook, the other anti-Tammany candidate, had 107.326 and Justice Robert L. Luce 94,193. Sqalres Leads Donllnx. In the second judicial district with 204 districts lacking out of 954, A. L. Bquiers, republican, had 124,564 and George S. Dowling, democrat, 110.321. An official count probably will be necessary to determine whether Rob ert L. Moran, Tammany candidate, or R. H. La Guardia, republican nominee. has been elected president of the board of aldermen. With 120 districts miss ing at 12:49 A. M.. Moran with 380,000 was leading by 800 votes. The elec tion of the republican candidates for justice of the supreme court in the First and Second Judicial districts apparently was assured. Hearst Attack Factor. The democrats conceded that one facter in the judiciary election was the assault by William Randolph Hearst upon Governor Smith and the Tammany candidates. Hearst Is credited with having stood sponsor for Mayor Hylan and there has been no break between them, although the city administration has remained at peace with the governor. The socialists had predicted that James . O'Neill, their candidate for aldermanlc president, would poll more votes than Morris Hillquit did in the mayoralty contest In 1917. but they failed to substantiate their claim, al though he had 112,241 in 2310 districts out of 2567.
