REFUSAL
Presidential Petitions Con
tinue in Circulation.
PEPUBLICANS ARE ACTIVE
Club Organized In Oregon Seeks
to Get ex-Food Administrator's
Name on Ballot.
While the Hoover Republican club
of Oregon is circulating petitions to
have Mr. Hoover"s name placed on the
republican primary ballot. Oswald
West has practically completed his
petition to put the name of Mr. Hoo
ver on the democratic ballot. The
refusal of Mr. Hoover to permit dem
ocrats in various states to inject his
Bams into their primaries, and the
Increasing- activity among republicans
to bring Mr. Hoover to the lore, has
not discouraged Mr. TV est
"The petitions to place Mr. Hoover
en the democratic ballot are practl
cally filled," declared Mr. West yes
terday, "t have received more than
the 1000 signatures necessary, and am
now checking them over to sec that
they comply with the requirements
of the law. Some of the people who
circulated the petition were not in
formed as to the requirements, eo
today I sent out a couple of blanks,
which had been requested, to pather
the few names necessary to offset the
mistakes which crept into some of the
petition papers. This, of course, al
ways happens in every petition that is
circulated.
Petition to Be Ready Soon.
"I expect to have the Hoover peti
tion ready for filing with the sccre
tary of btato about the middle of the
coming week. Thus far everything
has gone along swimmingly."
Meanwhile, the McAdoo petitions
for the democratic ballot are drifting
along. Newton McCoy, who was first
in the field with these documents,
frankly admits that they are going
somewhat slow. George Lovejoy, of
the McAdoo club, on the other hand,
asserts that his petitions for Mr.
McAdoo aro filling up in an emi
nently satisfactory manner.
There is a possibility of three other
democrats havinsr their names on the
ballot in the primaries. At least.
State Chairman Starkweather has re
ceived that number of inquiries, one
from the Owen-for-President club and
two inquiries from different sounds
in Ohio, possibly one of them from
the managers of Oovornor Cox. These
correspondents wanted information
from Chairman Starkweather regard
ing the final date for filing in the
presidential primaries, costs, and
similar matters.
Both Parties Active.
Although Mr. West says his Hoover
petition is about ready to drop into
the Jap of the secretary of state, with
the declaration that Mr. Hoover is a
democrat, the Hoover Republican club
of Oregon, launched at the University
club a few days ago, started with
several sore of names on the'repub
Iican petition. It appears to be a
foregone conclusion that -Mr. Hoover's
name will be on both primary tickets.
There are two or three men who. are
even considering the prospect of be
coming candidates for delegates to
the republican national convention
with the slogan. "I am for Hoover.
April 16 is the last day for filing
for the presidential primaries, or for
filing for all offices to be voted for
by the state at large, or in a district
composed of one or more counties.
By that time there may tje at least
five names on the republican ticket
and from two to five names on the
democratic ticket, for the popular
choice for the presidential nomi
nation.

TAKE SALTS TO
F
Eat Less Meat If You Feel
Backachy or Hare Blad
der Trouble.
Meat forms uric acid which excitea
and overworks the kidneys in their
efforts to filter it from the system.
Regular eaters of meat must flush
the kidneys occasionally. You. must
relieve them like you relieve your
bowels: removing all the acids, waste
and poison, else you feci a dull misery
in the kidney region, sharp pains in
the back or sick headache, dizziness,
jrevr stomach sours, tongue is coated
Sjad wnen the weather ie bad you
have rttecaatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment; the channels
often get irritated, obliging you -to
icet up two or three times during tbe
night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
.breakfast for a few daya and your
kidneys will then act fine and bladder
disorders disappear. This famous
alts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, comDinea witn nthia,
and has been used for generations to
clean and stimulate sluggish kidneys
and stop bladder irritation. Jad Salts
is inexpensive: harmless and makes a
delightful effervescent lithia-water
drink which- millions of men and
women take now and then, thus
avoiding serious kidney and bladder
disease. Adv.

out after. The Salvation Army in its
home service programme Is planning
one of the biggest works Oregon has
ever seen in social service. In Port
land there will be the White Shield
home, opened and converted into a Sal
vation Army rescue home for unfor
tunate girls. This la to be a state
wide home where girls from any
county in Oregon will be welcomed."
There will be the central build
ing to be put up on the lot bought
at Sixth and Ankeny streets. The
Industrial home in Portland and the
Workingmen's hotel also will take on
a state-wide character under the new
plan. The Bishop Scott school out

now paying the way of Oregon boys
who are on their way to Lytton home,
the California school, after which the
Oregon school will be patterned."

Piano Points for
Consideration
0 IMPORTANT is
the purchase of a
piano that it should
never be undertaken unless one
has a vivid conception of the
qualities that make for piano val
ues. Primarily, the piano is a
musical instrument; incidentally,
of course, it is an ornament. Its
main 'function, therefore, is to
give music.
IN COMPARING the
merits of various
pianos the purchaser
should first determine which
piano gives the very finest music.
Without the proper tone, a piano
is little more than a piece of fur
niture; but with a QUALITY OF
TONE that is PURE, CLEAR
and PLEASING to the ear, ifc be
comes the greatest aid in the de
velopment of musical talent in
the young, and of the apprecia
tion of the best in music in every
member of the family.
THE PURCHASER
should next con
sider the durabil
ity of the piano. He should be
well aware of the construction of
the pianos offered for his use.
Unless a piano can maintain its
tone, stand up under hard usage
for years after the newness has
worn off, it is unworthy of consideration.
THJ
HE design and f in-
ish of a piano
should make a
strong appeal to the eyes. Tastes
differ as to what is the most beau
tiful in piano-case designs, so the
line offered should have suffi
cient variety to permit a satisfac
tory choice. A selection based on
the points given: MUSICAL
QUALITY, DURABILITY OK
CONSTRUCTION, THE UT
MOST BEAUTY OF DESIGN,
will result in SATISFACTION.
