20 THE MORNING OREGOXIAX, FRIDAY, JANUARY 2, 1920. MANY SAVIDGE ARE RELEASED Action of Land Commissioner Changes Situation.. GOVERNOR NOT SURPRISED Support of Many Washington. Re publicans Now Will Turn to Hartley and Mr. Hart. SEATTLE, Wash., Jan. 1. (Spe cial.) Formal announcement by C. V. Eavidge, land commissioner, that he will not be a candidate for the re publican gubernatorial nomination will release a number of active re publican workers who were tied up to the Savldge candidacy in case it reached a stage of development where support became necessary. The big bulk of the support that would have gone to the land commissioner had he entered the race now will be ap portioned largely between Colonel R. II. Hartley of Everett and Governor Louis F. Hart of Tacoma, who are the only persons who have declared openly that they will seek the repub lican nomination. Governor Hart apparently was so well convinced that Savidge would not get into the race that he felt he was taking no chances in naming Savidge men to state positions. Hart attracted a grreat deal of attention when he made his first appointments, because politicians recognized most of the men named as republicans who had urged Savidge to run for gov ernor and who would be bound to support him if he entered the race. They told the governor of their tle p and he cheerfully advised them that if the land commissioner ran they would be free to support him. Many Legislators Concerned. The formal announcement of Com missioner Savidge releases a big per centage of the members of the legis lature who formally tendered him their support Just before the ad journment of the last session. The colons marched In a body to the land commissioner's office to declare that If he would lead they would follow in the coming campaign. Nearly half the membership of the two houses was Included in this demonstration. Nat urally, Governor Hart now will feel that he has first call on much of .this support. The call that Colonel Hartley will have on a part of the Savidge support Is well enough known to politicians through the open declaration of many prominent republicans In the Savidge line-up that they would swing over to the Everett candidate If the lanad commissioner did not run. Hartley has been an active candidate for sev eral months and an avowed aspirant for gubernatorial honors since he was defeated for the nomination In 1916. He turned around after the last pri mary campaign and cheerfully sup ported Governor Menry McBride, but he also said that when the state went looking for another -governor he would be In the running again. Convention Is Considered. The organizers of the triple al liance have let it be known they are considering the calling of a state convention on or about February 17 in either Seattle or Tacoma when, probably, it will be determined wheth er the organization is to figure in state politics as an independent party or Is to tie in on one of the old parties. There is considerable dissatisfac tion on the part of the state man agers of the triple alliance because the King county end of the deal al ready has stepped out into politics as a separate organization. Some of the state organizers insist that the policy of the Non-partisan league in breaking Into the primaries of es tablished parties should be followed and a fight will be made at the com ing state convention to indorse this programme. If the third party idea is frowned down the trijjle alliance will get in behind some republican candidate for uoevrnor and it Is apparent that the choice will be neither Governor Hart nor Colonel Hartley. It is not likely to be Senator Coman, either. If ha should come out as a life-sized can - didate. " The announcement that Savidge will run again for land commissioner kills off several promising candidacies for the more prominent men mentioned for land commissioner have said all Rlong that they would not run against Savidge. A protracted Illness Including an operation performed last August, terminated Tuesday in the ,death of Robert M.

I.owfr 'I bin woolly outcast ta lfoi. derlns; If he will ever see his matter aajaln. HE was a little white .terrier and he barked playfully as a man approached with a huge net and began waving it through the air. It was good sport for the neglected -lit tle canine and his tail wagged mer rily as he leaped about the pavement on Sixth street, playing- at a game he had never known before. But a moment later the strange game was over. The net swooped flown throuprh the air and held the playful terrier enmeshed within its confusing folds. The wagging of the tail stopped abruptly. The light of friendliness and playfulness faded In stantly from the eyes of the canine. Strong hands reached beneath the folds of the net and dragged the af frighted terrier forth. Without cere mony he was bundled into a steel caged truck. The dog-catcher baa scored another victory. Little Lad's I'et Vanishes. Little Jack is the 6-year-old son of a well-to-do family living In the Nob Hill section of the city. Until Christ mas day he was the proud master of a woolly canine of uncertain parent age and pedigree. He was in no sense a dog-show prize-winner, but he was young Jack's pal a true friend who shared the youngster's joys and licked his hand tenderly when storm clouds arose upon the horizon. If, the day before Christmas, Santa Claus had told. Jack he would have to ch'oose between a bone for his play STATE DOG TAX NOW DUE CAA'IXE OWNERS REQUIRED TO PAY LICENSE. Portland City Tax Also Applies to Animals Kept Here; Test of State Law Awaited. Dog owners in Portland will be re quired to purchase two dog licenses If they are to protect their pets, one from the city and the second from the county under the 'requirements of a new state law passed "Oy the last leg islature: Few of the state licenses have been taken out, according to County Clerk Beveridge, perhaps be cause a test of the law is anticipated and the dog owners feel that they eventually will not be required to pay the state tax. But under the newly-enacted law it becomes the duty of the sheriff of each county to execute any dogs found running at large without the state tax. Should the dog be decorated with the tag and collar issued by the state, but without the city license tag, the Oregon Humane officers are charged with the duty of picking the dog up and placing it in the dog pound. Rumors that steps would be taken to test the validity of the new dog license act have been heard in various parts of the state, but no definite ac tion has yet been taken. As matters now stand protection to dogs of Ore gon can be given only through ob taining the state license tag and in Multnomah county by obtaining both the city and state tags. The city tax, for male dogs in Port land Is $3 per year, with a $5 tax for female dogs: the state tax is $1 for male dogs and $2 for female dogs. The state issues a leather collar and tag, while t"he city issues only a tag. WOMEN TO TAKE CENSUS Albany Has Three Enumerators and Lebanon lias One. ' ALBANY, Or., Jan. 1. (Special.) The 1920 census will be taken in Al batiy entirely by women. Mrs- Bes sie Cyrus. Mrs. Carrie S. M. Hender son and Mrs. Pearl W. Worrell will be the enumerators. Mrs. llattle A. Cruson will take the census in all " I u a new same of tas he was mate or the bright red play-automobile which the youngster wanted so badly and got Jack would not have hesitated a moment. The dog would have spent Christmas morning gnaw ing at the bone. But the day after Christmas Jack's canine friend was missing. The youngster was heart-broken. His heart ached for his inseparable com panion. It was not until the boy refused to eat that Jack's father re membered .he had neglected to pro cure a new license for his boy's dumb friend. Efforts of No Avail. His efforts, however, - were of no avail. For Jack's faithful pal was one of 15 canines who were put to death at the Oregon Humane society home on Columbia boulevard Monday after noon. After he had been picked up on the west side the dog had been taken to the society's kennels, where he was held for several days while a search was made for the owner. '"uiiudj anernoon me dog- was taken from his kennel and led out to a llte steel house, where suspicious wires were much in evidence. The disconsolate dog looked vainly for its youtniui master. He walked with his head down through a door and stood for a moment upon a steel floor. The doorawas closed. An elec tric switch was turned on.' There was a sputtering of electric sparks. A moment later the lifeless body of the three of the precincts at Lebanon, Linn county's second city, and other women are included in the list of enumerators for different parts of the county.

(Spe cial.) With a refusal to withdraw their wage increase demands in the animal was dragged forth. There are hundreds of other young sters In Portland who will experience the same heart-aches as young Jack if the men and women of Portland neglect to purchase licenses for the coming year. The task of putting de fenseless dogs to death is not a pleas ant one, but if the owners will not provide the necessary license there is nothing else which can be done. Dog-Catcher Begins Work. A light automobile truck was fitted up more than a week ago, and the dog-catcher Is now busily engaged from morning to night gathering in ,the unfortunate dogs whose owners do not think enough of them to pro vide them with license tags. Two investigators are now checking up on all dog owners who have failed to get licenses, and warrants will be issued for the arrest of all recreant owners. A preliminary investigation has revealed more than 3000 dogs without licenses, and. so far as pos sible every owner will be required to get licenses. "In our Investigations thus far we have found that the well-to-do peo ple are in a majority of those who have failed to provide for their animals," said' Jack Routledge, city humane officer. "The poorer families are managing to dig up their $3 or $5, whichever fee is required. In order to protect their animals, while those who really can afford to keep dogs are neglecting this duty they owe to their dumb friends.." Fund Alda Poor Families. There are many families who are absolutely too poor to purchase licenses for their animals, but the humane society has set aside a small fund to assist such persons in keeping their canines. One widow whose dog had been gathered In by the dog-catcher the day before Christmas was arrested on a city warrant. In police court she frankly told Judge Rossman she could not afford to pay 3 for a license. The woman's young, daughter wept bit terly during the proceedings. The in cident so touched Neil Crounse, dep uty court clerk,, and Judge Rossman that they gathered a purse for the purchase of the needed license, and the little girl took her dog home with her for Christmas eve. Incidents such as these are dally occurrences in the life of the dog cstcher and other employes . of the humane society, and, have helped to bring them to a point where they are glad to prosecute those who think enough of their dogs to use them to guard their homes,- but neglect to provide them with the needed tag which they must wear'if they are to escape death by electrocution. face of action by the Master Builders' association rejecting increases, most of the building trades unions today placed into effect the $l-a-day wage increase. The unions effecting the increase are the building laborers, plasterers, lathers, hodcarriers and structural Ironworkers. Their action will be effective against all new con tracts, according to jV. H. Pazen, business agent of the carpenters and president of the building trades coun cil The carpenters" union will give the master builders 90 days to finish their old building contracts before putting Into effect the 8-a-day.wage demand, Mr. Pazen declared today. 800 Apply for Realty Licenses. SALEM. Or., Jan. 1. (Special.) More than 800 applications for real estate licenses have been received at tke offices of the state insurance com missioner, according to G. V. John son, in charge of the real estate de partment. Last year there was a to tal of 1650 licenses issued, but it is expected that the 1920 applications will far exceed that number. Under a law passed at the last session of the legislature all persons engaged in the real estate business in Oregon- are required to pay an annual fee of $5 and post a bond In the sum of U000.

Knt ire Return Trip Is Made on Skils by Charles 11. Warner of Portland. Making the ascent of Mount Hood yesterday on behalf of the Portland Press club, Charles E. Warner made a record climb. The day broke bril liantly and the first rays of the sun that tinted the snow fields were greet ed with some misgivings by the peo ple at Government camp, for a day of bright eunshlne is not deemed quite so desirable for a climb up the steep slopes as when the skies are gray, due to greater' danicer of slides and the effect of the constant glare from snow crystals on the optic nerves of the climber. Having arranged with O. C. Leiter, president of the Press club, to make the climb on the first day of the new pear, Mr. Warner had proceeded to Government camp Wednesday and an nounced that it was his purpose to scale the peak early yesterday. He made an early start and the people at the camp watched his steady progress onward and upward until he passed timber line. At 7:30 P. M. a telephone message was flashed to the club from Gov ernment camp conveying the news that Mr. Warner had completed the trip and that the descent was made on skiis. A statement was made that It had been an unusually successful tripand it probably was the first time that the entire return trip had been made on skiis. It is regarded as an excellent example of the attractiveness of the Mount Hood region for lovers of win ter sports, and the feat of Mr. Warner, who is an electrical engineer and an active member of the Press club, will be relished by the Mazamas and other local people who are fond of outdoor amusements.
