THE 3IORXIXG OREGOXIAX, TUESDAY, APRIL 3, 1906.
CANDIDATES
BUSY JUST NOW
Many Are Out Seeking for
Votes in Advance of the
Primaries.
CAMPAIGN QUITE ACTIVE
Election Is but Three Weeks Away,
and Prospective Nominees Are
Losing No Time in Trying
to Influence Citizens.
"With the primary tickets completed and
the election but thrco weeks away, candi
dates for party nominations have- settled
down for a long, hard run for the finish of
the race. The campaign has been active
for several -weeks, but is now as lively as
a contest usually Is before a general elec
tion. If the June campaign should be
warmer than the primary contest prom
lues to become, there will be exciting
times before the people of this state have
chosen their officers for the ensuing fpur
years.
Portland is becoming more and more a
point of interest for candidates. Most of
them have canvassed the outside counties
first, and are now beginning to look after
their interests In the metropolis, where
voters are numerous but not easy to
reach. Portland gets a visit from each of
the candidates whenever they pass from
Western to Eastern Oregon, or from the
East Side counties to the West Side. A
day's visit to take a general view of the
situation gives them a rest before start
ing out on another strenuous trip.
C. A. Johns Visits Portland.
Twjterday C. A. Johns, who would like
to move from Baker City to Salem, and
occupy the Governor's offlce. was shaking
hands with friends around the hotel. An
other Baker City man was in town, but he
was not here in the interests of Johns.
His name is Harvey K. Brown, and he
would like to sit in the Governor's chair
himself. W. X. Gatens, "Billy" Gatens,
Governor Chamberlain's private secretary,
was also in the city doing a little quiet
work in behalf of the man who will run
against the leader of the Republican
ticket. "Chamberlain Republicans" arc
what Gatens ! looking for, and he claims
hi finds lots of them.
P. W. Benson, aspirant for the Repub
lican nomination for Secretary of State,
came in last night from his home at Rose
burg, and B. V. Carter, from far-off Jack
eon County, Is here looking after his con
test for the nomination for State Treas
urer. Both feel confident
Where to Work the Puzzle.
Just where to put In the most work is
the question that is puzzling the candi
dates at present. The time is short and
they cannot see everybody. It Is argued
by some that if primary day should be
fine weather for farming the country vote
will be light, and that time spent trying
to get the farmer vote might be wasted.
On the other hand, it is asserted that
town people see so many candidates that
they are not easily Influenced, and that
more effective work can be done In the
country- Whether to advertise in the
newspapers or .cnd out circulars Is an
other problem the candidates are worry
ing themselves over, and most of them
are solving it by trying both methods. .
As the county1 tickets have not been
made up yet. there is comparatively less
activity among aspirants for county nomi
nations, but the last of this week will find
all the county candidates in the field.

SUPPORTS MONDELL BILL
Commercial Club Favors Government
Aid in Mining Instructions.
The board of governors of the Portland
Commercial Club held a meeting at noon
yesterday, receiving 12 new members,
which makes 36 within the past week.
An entirely new constitution and by-laws
is now being arranged for adoption by
the club, at a general meeting.
At the suggestion of President P. L.
Campoell, of the University of Oregon,
the board of governors passed a resolu
tion indorsing the Mondcll bill, now be
fore Congress. It provides an annual ap
propriation of $10,000,000 for the supporjt of
departments of mining In the universi
ties and agricultural colleges which have
mining interests. Bach year this appro
priation is to be increased by S1.COW09
until a maximum of i20.OW.000 annually is
reached.
The appropriation In the different states
is equally divided between the state uni
versities and the agricultural colleges.
Under a provision of the bill a portion
of tlie appropriation may be available
for instruction in forestry.
The appropriations to be made are to
be paid out of money received from the
sale of public lands. Few states In the
X'nion arc more deeply interested In litis
proposition than Oregon, where an in
creased development in mining interests
means many added millions to the state.
The Portland C5mmor-lal Club is espe
cially anxious tha: other commercial
bodies throughout Oregon take action re
garding the Mondell bill. .
TWO LICENSES REVOKED
BOTH SALOONKEEPERS WERE
TOO XEAR A SCHOOL.
Several Applications Arc Granted
and Transfers Made by Liquor
License Committee.
Yielding to thn inexorable demands of
the charter, which provides that no sa
loon shall be maintained within 400 feet
of any block of land upon which a public
schoolhouso Is situate, the liquor license
committee of the Council yesterday re
voked the licenses of August Eschic. of
1070 Corbett street, whose place of busi
ness is between Bancroft and Seymour
avenues, near the Soutli Portland School,
and that of Jacob Sauer. of C9I Milwaukie
avenue, who has been brought within the
proscribed limits by recent purchases of
ground for tne Brooklyn school district.
In the case of Eschle. he Is more than
400 feet away from the school building,
and 405 feet from the comer, according
to measurement, of when the school lot
terminates: but the building is located
on a double block, in consequence of
which the saloon comes under the ban,
and Its proprietor will have to move.
His license was revoked upon the petition
of James 1. Marshall, of Wl Corbett
atrcet, who called attention to the state
of affairs.
Jacob Sauer was put out of business
mainly through the earnest pleadings of
Mrs. Bert Ilayward. of SI; Rhine street,
who assured the committee that he was
conducting an Improper establishment.
and that It was a menace to the moral
welfare of the community. Sauer was
also accused by Mrs. Hayward of con
tributing to the delinquency of a minor
by employing his 14 -year-old son as a
barkeeper, for which offense, she al
leged, he was fined 100 In the Municipal
Court less than two months ago.
The following transfers were allowed:

NO NORTH -END MISSION
Ministerial Association Abandons
Idea of Its Establishment.
It was decided bv the Portland Minis
terial Association yesterday morning to
abandon the Idea of establishing a mis
sion In the North End district of me
city. The project has been up for some
time, and a committee has been Investi
gating It. In reporting for this commit
tee. Dr. F. Burgetle Short said that
the field was already oretty well laKen
up by the missions already there, and
that the Baptists and Presbyterians were
already engaged In that work and could
not unite In the new movement. There
fore be moved that the matter "be dropped.
which motion carried.
Dr. Short then Introduced resolutions
co mm ending the efforts of Messrs. Adams
and Strayer. who are working In the
North End mission field. Some one
thought that if these men were com
mended it would also be necessary to
mention the Men's Resort, and another
speaker added "that the Salvation Army
should not be. overlooked. It was finally
settled by tabling the whole tnaltrr.
Mrs. C. M. Wood presented the work or
the Florence Crlttenton Refuge Home,
aqd It was decided that each pastor In
the city should devote one sermon to tne
home. As far as possible, these sermons
will take place on the fifth Sunday of
April, and a mass meeting will be held
that afternoon to raise money to assist
In paying for the new building. This
building, which Is now under way. will
cost S1C.0M. of which only I30CO has been
subscribed.
BACK FROM CALIFORNIA
Jj. TV. Pratt. Who Promoted Wash
ington Excursion Returns.
I TV. rratt. secretary of the Tacoma
Chamber of Commerce and Board of
Trade, accompanied by his wife, spent
several hours in the city" ycsirday en
route home from California. Mr. Pratt
was active in making possible the recent
trip of the Washington people through
California and made arrangements with
Manager Tom Richardson of the Portland
Commercial Club during hl stay here to
Join In urging the Callfornlans to return
the visit.
Relative to the Coast excursion and the
general situation on the Pacific Coast.
Mr. Pratt said: "The people are pros
perous everywhere on the Pacific Coast,
but with the tremendous amount of rail
road building and the great activity In
lumber. It seems to me that Oregon and
Washington and their coast cities will
have a greater proportion of growth than
any other section of the United States.
It's a grand privilege to return from
California and enjoy the glorious climate
of our Northwestern Coast. Today I fell
like I was home again, looking at tho
solid snow mountains that surround Port
land, and breathing this bracing atmos
phere. And the best part of It Is that
people outside of the Northwest arc talk
ing about our climate Just as we do.

THREEFAGTS
For Sick Women
To Consider
Four. That almost CTerv operation
In our hospitals performed upon women
becomes necessary through neglect of
suck symptoms astaekache, irregular
and painful periods, displacements
of the female organs, pain, in the side,
burning- sensation in the stomach,
bearing-down pains, nervousness, dix
ziness and sleeplessness.
Secoxd. The medicine that holds
the record for the largest number of
absolute cures of female ills is Lvdla
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
It regulates, strengthens ted cures
diseases of the female organism as
nothing else can.
For thirty years it has been helping
women to be strong, curing backache,
nervousness, kidney troubles, inflam
mation of the female organs, weak
ness and displacements, regulating
the periods perfectly and overcoming
their pains. It has also proved itself
invaluable in preparing women for
childbirth and the change of life.
Third. The great volume of unso
licited and grateful testimonials on file
at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass., many of which are from time to
time published by permission, give ab
solute evidence of the value of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Componndand
