17 TREATY ISSUE LOOMS LEADING PORTLAND CONTRALTO WILL SING AT ALCAZAR ft THEATER THIS WEEK. WHAT USERS SAY Hoover Reckoned. as Candi date on Democratic Ticket. PALMER HANDICAP SEEN THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND, NOVEMBER 9, 1919. IN PRESIDENTIAL RACE v "1 - fCV37t'-T' (- . "I , Tv .- jkS ' U about the j TT. S. Marshal Alexander Back From Kut, Hears lioom for Mayor Jljlim in Operation. There is a possibility that the peace treaty will become the Issue of the campaign in the 1920 presidential election, according- to rumors gath ered by United States Marshal Alex ander, wl las returned from a trip through Hie east. Mr. Alexander learned, also, that Mr. Wilson is vir tually dismissed from consideration as a candidate to succeed himself, and that the star of Herbert Hoover is on the ascent. The food controller is reckoned as a likely man to head the democratic ticket. "Politics is as much in the air in the east as it is here in Oregon," says Mr. Alexander. "There are about the eamegeneral rumors and a few new angles dealing with possibilities. The most interesting bit of gossip I heard was in Washington and this dealt with the peace treaty, and I heard the same version from several different sources. Accordiar to this rumor, the senate will pass the treaty with res ervations which will not be acceptable to the president; that the president will send the treaty back to the sen ate with a message explaining his objections and asking for a recon sideration. Then, the senate will dis regard the request of the president and stand pat on the way it passed the treaty with its reservations Following this, the president will await the new congress to again take up the matter. Treaty May Be Issue, , "If such a programme is carried out the treaty will become the issue in the election of 1920, not only in the presidential race, but it will be the issue where members of congress are to be elected. "In this event republicans think it will strengthen Johnson's chances for the nomination, as he is the most vig orous opponent of the treaty. In democratic circles it is considered that Mr. Wilson's physical condition will eliminate him from consideration as a candidate and that Herbert Hoover may be the democratic can didate for president. "But the people who told me these things always crossed their fingers when they mentioned Hoover, for they said if -Hoover is a democrat. Ap parently, no one knows what political affiliation Hoover claims. As near as I can figure it out. after attending school in Oregon as a boy, he went to California and graduated as a civil enginer, and upon his gradua tion he accepted a position with a mining company that took him abroad; that he was in Europe when lie was appointed to look after the Belgian relief and later was called to America to become food con troller, so that Hoover, from the time he graduated, has been absent from the United States and therefore it is uncertain where he belongs politically. . Bar to Palmer Sateesii Seen, j "If the treaty is out of the way and does not become a campaign issue, Governor Cox of Ohio or Governor Smith of New York, become possibili ties, as their chances are improved. I heard Palmer mentioned, but the main objection raised against him is that he is from Pennsylvania, one of the strongest of the republican states, and it is not believed that he can carry it. There is theory among republicans and democrats that no man should be made a candidate for president unless he can carry his own state and Penn sylvania is hopelessly republican. "In New York I was around with Tammany people and heard a great deal of talk about Mayor Hylan as a possibility. The Tammany crowd say that Hylan stands well with the people of greater New York, has made a good mayor and is in line for the presidential nomination. I heard more Hylan talk than I did Smith talk. 3Svr York Politics Different. "McAdQO, of course, is being men tioned as a successor to Mr. Wilson, . and so is Senator Pomerene, but the latter is not considered as a serious contender, at least at the present time." One of the marvels of the trip to Marshal Alexander was what he dis covered of Tammany. "Politics is a business in New Tork," said the returned traveler. "They do not play politics the way it is done here, casually and in sea son, but in New York politics is con ducted in a most businesslike manner all the year around, and a fellow doesn't get very far unless he is on the inside politically. I met a man there who is one of the heads of one of the biggest concerns in the coun ' try. He told me he had been a life long republican until he went to New York and there he found out that the line of least resistance was to get in close with the democratic leaders." ROBBERS ENTER 4 HOMES CLOTHES, JEWELRY, MONEY AND WAR STAMPS TAKEX. Intruder, With Suit TTnder Arm, Escapes Through Rear Door as Woman Enters House. "When Mrs. J. A. Leatherman, 320 West Ainsworth street, returned home late Friday a robber ran out of her home, making his escape by a rear door, she told police yesterday.

The Burglar OR The Profiteer Which is the worst enemy to society? The burglar is usually a man too lazy to work and absolutely devoid of a sense of justice to his fellow man. He takes big risks, however,' of being killed, or captured by the authorities. If captured it means a long term in the penitentiary. The profiteer is usually an oily-tongued, persuasive individual who robs you, while at the same time he pats you on the back. He takes no chances of physical suffering or imprisonment, but he gets your money just the same. There are profiteers in the dental profession who charge twice and three times as much as the work is worth. At this office you will be charged a reasonable profit on the work performed and you will find my prices much lower than most dentists ask for the same kind of work.' It will be well to remember that I back up first-class work with Service that I believe is unequalled here or elsewhere. In all branches of- dentistry the results will be equally satisfactory.
