Chronicles of Men Who Would Be Mayor B. LEE PAGET DECLARES EVEN A PROHIBITIONIST NOMINEE HAS AN EXCELLENT FIGHTING CHANCE ONLY one man has been nominated for Mayor of this town, and In this respect B. Lee Paget Is unique. Public prints and public places are filled w.Ith the aspirations of those who woulJ be nominated by the various parties arrayed against the other These are the pre-primary days. The Prohibitionists seek neither fear nor favor, and so, regardless of what might happen, have taken the bull by the horns and nominated one of the chief of their number for the office of Mayor of Portland. I went nearly to St. Johns, a long journey, yesterday, to see Mr. Paget, of the Tenth Ward. I found him not at all a forlorn hope sort of man. lie is as cheerful a candidate as ever approached the final verdict of his fellow citizens and it is his theory that there Is a fighting chace. Saturday's Prohibition convention called him to tho duty of running for the Mayoralty and he has already begun the task with hope as his guiding star and determination as his hand-maiden. Mr. Paget Is a hardened veteran of many a campaign. He is not an old man, but he lias been a busy one. He was once a Republican and learned politics at the feet of Joe Simon, but for the six years last past, having, like St. Paul, teen a great llgnt, he apostatized from Republicanism to tho Prohibition ranks and since then has been armed cap-a-ple In the interests of the cold-water party. Lee Paget is essentially not a long haired fftnatlc He does not harangue from street-corners and would not be a party to plots of dynamite and arson against the saloons or breweries. He has a fixed belief -that liquor Is a bad thing and should be legislated out of existence, but ho has more than one idea and is never offensive in the manner of riding his hobby. He 1b secretary of one of Portland's strongest financial institutions and is a successful man of business, which he could not well be were he a fanatic. He is also treasurer of the Board of Trade, treasurer of the Taylor-street Methodise Church. He is also president of the Multnomah County Sunday School Asso ciation and of the Oregon State Poultry Association. All these employments re quire & temperate head. He handles many Thousands of our. dollars every year and IP TO TIE BABIES If President Visits Fair They Must Influence Him. PLOT FORMED BY MOTHERS Roosevelt Will Be Asked, T.hrough Their Petition, to Come and Sec Race Suicide Does 3fot' Exist in Oregon. Where did you come from, baby dear? Out of the everywhere Into here. Where did you set your eyes so "blue? Out ot the skies aa I came throuzh. Where did you get. that little tear? I found It waiting when I came here. What makes your cheeks like a warm, white rose? I save something- better than any One knows. From Ballads of Babyland. Babies of the Oregon country will so exert their magic spell that they and Incidentally their mothers may bring President Roosevelt to visit the Lewis and Clark Exposition, about Au gust or September. The President has successfully evaded ,the various grownups who have be seeched him to visit Portland this Sum mer, but this time crowing, living ex amples of the fact that race suicide does not exist in Oregon may win the day. The plan In its first stages Is to prepare a monster petition to be signed by mothers of families and all mar riageable girls between the ages of 19 and 59. So say the committee in charge of this novel campaign, and they ought to know. The subject was first broached a few days ago when three Nob Hill mothers talked about their babies. In front of a picture of President Roosevelt, J Is played In a house overlooking the Ex position grounds. The President's views against race suicide are well known. and the three devoted mothers talked over tho proposition why should not the President seo the swarms of Pacific Coast babies, and incidentally their mothers? The Exposition management was made acquainted with the idea, and welcomed it in a paternal manner that was creditable to some of them as fathers. But all the same, the story did not leak out until yesterday and the three mothers who started the pioneer movement would not permit tho use of their names. They stated that a con ference of those interested will be called shortly. "If you war.t my views on tho mat tcr, you can say that parents who have over 20 babies will be debarred as ex hlbltors," remarked a man who was present. That's spoken just like a man," ob served one of the Nob Hill mothers. "But, really, there are Portland families who have over 16 or 17 children In each family. The Oregon country seems fa vorablo to the growth of large fami lies. Wc nave no race suicide "How I hate the phrase," interrupted her neighbor. "Well, a baby show at the Exposi tion, nnd on a large scale, would ef fectually show that mce suicide docs not exist In Oregon, nnd especially In Portland," persisted the first speaker. The best way would be to start in by getting up a petition to President Roosevelt, signed only by Pacific Coast mothers and marriageable women, ask ing him to visit the Exposition at some date convenient to himself, when there Is Insufferably warm weather in the East and cool weather In Portland. Some organized effort should be made." From the general conversation that ensued. It appears thaf the promoters will start the signing of the petition after the worry of election Is over, and that It will De sent to President Roose velt, indorsed by Governor Chamber lain, the new Mayor of Portland, and the Exposition management. A lone bachelor offered at the meeting to pro duce figures showing that Portland is a race suicide city, but he was made ,to reel that he didn't know what he was talking about. Tho women Insisted that large families are the rule In the s universally respected as a business man. Were he an Intemperate Prohi bitionist or an intemperate anything else he would not Inspire general respect. He says that he Is willing to meet any candidate on the question of "a business administration," but It will be an ad ministration of law enforcement. In this connection he has many ideas of policy and he told me some of them for pub licity. "First of all," said he. "I am radically opposed to, the principle Involved In the license system. The attitude of Sheriff Word in the matter of gambling. I be lieve, meets with the approval of a great majority of our people. I should like to apply the same policy to the saloons. Under present conditions and laws, of course that would be impossible. 1 was speaking of my Ideal. "If I should be elected Mayor I would undertake to take things as they exist and improve upon them. "My first step would be the appoint ment of a license committee which would revoke the licenses of a dozen notorious saloons In this town. Of course I have no idea what sort of a Council will be elected, but I believe that I could appoint a committee from any Council with sufficient regard for public decency to revoke the licenses of places known to menace public , saieiy. n wouia oe one oi me oesi advertisements which could possibly go out from this city if we could an nounce thut certain of such places had been closed. "I would appoint a chief of police who would be sufficiently efficient to enforce the laws and do it with a' smaller force than is now required. He would not be a theorist, but a practical man, chosen just as I would choose a man to manage a store or a bank. For a number of years I was manager for Meier & Frank and for three years have been secretary or the Portland Trust Company. I am conceited enough to believe that-1 can manage the affairs of this municipality as well as I have those which have been In trusted to me, for I should use the same methods. X would be sane and practical and would seek to-attain bet ter conditions by degrees. "For Instance, the system of receiv ing sealed bids for city contracts Is wrong. It Is not done In private con tracts. It should not be in municipal matters. I never realized so forcibly "how low the standard of public con science has fallen as I did-when con tractors recently, went into court and admitted a&t tfe'ey had formed a pool that the Old Oregon country Is "blessed In this one particular,. BELASCO OWNS COLUMBIA Formal Transfer Gives Playhouse to San Francisco Men. Frederick Bclasco, head of the firm of Belasco & Mayer, and Philip L. Wilson, a prominent young banker and capitalist, of Los Angeles, are at the Portland. To gether they closed the deal for the Co lumbia Theater on Saturday afternoon and will take possession today. The Co lumbia under its new ownership will be known as the Belasco Theater and the work of Improving and remodeling the big playhouse will commence at once. An extensive porte-cochre will be erected along almost the entire frontage on Washington and Fourteenth streets. A quantity of decorative staff work will be added and the entire exterior of the build ing will be repainted. The Interior will be redecorated and a number of other extensive Improvements made. The for mal transfer has been made and the deeds are now of record. The house will be opened under Its new management about June 1, and will thereafter be kept open the year round. A splendid stock company is being en gaged and although neither the leading man nor leading woman has yet been se cured It is expected that they will be within a few days. The personnel of the company as announced Insures that it will be one of the best ever organized in the country and a series of productions of the highest order will be made. The opening bill will be "The Heart of Maryland,-" to be followed In the order named by "The Climbers." "Are Tou a Mason?" and "When Knighthood Was In Flower." Succeeding plays will be fully up to the standard of those named and the Port land public is promised something better in the way of stock performances than it has ever seen before. There will be a slight advance in prices. At least two of the company as already engaged, Virginia Brissac and John Saln polls, arc already decided local favorites and the others are all well-known peo ple In the profession. "We are not going to attempt to edu cate the people of Portland," said Mr. Bclasco, last night. "They have already had excellent stock engagements and are prepared for something better. We will give them something far better than they have ever known and are confident they will appreciate our efforts. We have the greatest faith in Portland and Its future and feel that In coming here we are get ting into the best city on the North Pa cific Coast." Manager Sackett of White Whittlesey's Company, will have the local direction of the theater and will arrive about the 20th of May to familiarize himself with tho house and local conditions. Mr. Belasco will remain In the city until after the opening, at which time Mr. Mayer will In all probability be here. Mr. Wilson will return to Los Angeles the latter part of this week. FROM WEST TO THE WEST Stirring Scenes of Pioneer Times Arc Given in a Reading. The People's Forum was treated last night to rare glimpses of the pioneer life of 50 years ago by Mrs. Abigail Scott Dun iway, who portrayed these scenes by the reading of selections from her recent book, "From the West to the West." Around the facts of the early day cross lng of the plains, Mrs. Dunlway has woven a romance which gives the life touch to the tale and at the same time brings olt vividly tho sufferings and dan gers which were the lot of the courageous pioneer. The determination of strong. manly John Ranger to leave his Illinois farm and take up life In the Oregon coun try Is- uscd-to open the tale, and the story of his journey, accompanied by eentle. wifely Annie Ranger, and their daughter Jean. Is graphically told. The Incidents of the six months' travel from "The West to the West" and the primitive mode ot life in the West 50 years ago. as depicted in the readings of Mrs. Dunlway, selected at random, received the closest attention of the audience.

HOODOO ON TEAM Portland Bowlers Lose at the Spokane Meet. HARD LUCK FOLLOWS THEM 'Western Men Form Association Sep arating From National Body, and Will Hold Special Tour nament in This City. Hard luck seems to have been the particular brand of hoodoo that over hung the Portland representation at the bowling tournament held in Spo kane last week; The five-man team lost first place by a mere 30 points, losing to a combina tion team formed from Spokane and Tacoma. The scores were 2731 and 2701 and, according to the boys, it was a purely flash Play that took the game from them. On the opposing team one of the men taking part could hardly claim to be a bowler in the fast com pany entered, but by a streak of luck he totalled an average of .213. Next day the same man dropped down to .140. In the triples Portland lost second money by ono point. The bard luck hoodoo had everything to do with that and caused the bad roll of Capen. In his tenth frame, Capen's thumb stuck In the hole spoiling the throw and roll ing the wooden shot into the gutter. In the doubles and singles Portland got no nearer than sixth place. Portland was the only outside city fully represented, Seattle sending but one man, Tacoma two and Salt Lake one. Denver, Butte and ban trancisco w.ere only represented by proxy, for the purpose of voting on the organization of a Western association. Spokane had two full teams and furnished men to fill In for the other cities. Portland was represented thus: Five- man team., Kneyse, Ball, Capen, Keat ing. McMenoroy. Three-man teams. Ball. Capen, Kneyse; Taylor. Keating, McMenomy. Doubles. Ball, Capen; Keating Kneyse; Taylor, McMenomy. Singles, Ball. Taylor, Kneyse, Capen, Keating, McMenomy. The formation of the Western Bowl ing Congress was completed success fully and the Western bowlers are now free from the National organization. A special meet, under the new associa tion, will be held In Portland during the early part of August, with the first annual tournament following. The date and place of meeting of the latter will be fixed by the executive committee.

A large number of shooters round their way out to the traps at irvlngton yesterday, and some good scores were recorded. During the early hours the day was an Ideal one Tor shooting, but the afternoon brought with It a slight wind which was sufficient to bother the marksmen. Howe won the lnman medal. making' 23 out of 25. The Teature of yesterday was the shooting of Winters, who missed but three birds out of the first 75. Carlln was a close second for honors, breaking 48 out of the last 50. H. Palmer and G. Pnlmer, of Salem, spent the day at the traps and proved that the up-country can produce a few marksmen Itself.

YOUR EYES WALTER 133 SIXTH STREET business card bore until last night. After he was beaten 20 lengths In a foot race of a city block by Dr. S. M. Hanby, Fisher borrowed a lead pencil from Happy Ho- gan and very carefully scratched out Foct Racer." The Tiger manager, with the sting of yesterday's defeat tucke'd away under his expansive heaving bosom, rambled down to a cigar store and proclaimed to the fans that he could beat anybody in Port land in a foot race. Dr. Hanby, who is a dentist by profession, a frenzied fan out of pure love of the game and a cinder- path artist of accomplishment happened to be near. There was talk over condition and a $20 wager. Fisher thought he was In San Francisco, where he has won sev eral cinder-path contests against a couple of Bay City policemen. Fisher was once a cop himself, and he knew just how to frame up a race with the policemen. That's how he won. Last night there was no chance for Fisher to "reach" Dr. Hanby. Jack Grant and Mike Lynch were the judges and Ed Schiller was the start er. Fisher thought he could iay close enough to Hanby to talk him Into throw ing the race, but the dentist got away Hying, and Fisher couldn't get even close enough to him to attract his attention by yelling. By the tlmo Fisher got to the finish. Hanby was buying cigars for the crowd on Fisher's money, illnue lodged a protest, and when the judges would not allow It, Fisher swore he would fine Lynch 520 and deduct It out of his next month's salary.
