Milfin 'ontonds for Conventions. Th- only town tliat bid acalnst Portland ' for l lie conventions ai Salem, for which : lk lr. J. X. Smith, of that city, who held the proxy of K. P. Ulsht. of Iake. IT. Smith Insisted that Salem has not hail a Ucpuhllean state convention for 2T years. The other members of the com mittee, however, wanted Portland. This city was selected for the I-Vst District -onvemion on motion of A. C. Marsters. of IVtiiglas. and for the state convention tiy ("Sconce V. lienman, of Benton, (tlher memhers present were: R. K. Njnick. of 1'olumbla: J. C. dine, proxy lor K. Mlnmis, of Coos; C. A. Dannemnn. 'of Condon; t. I Patterson, of Grant; H . Potter, of I.ane: t? A. Westgate. of H.inn (chairman); W. H.

Hanks also suiiKostcd that the committee recommend that Its monitors be ex-offlcio members of t!w convention, but the com julttoe did not approve the idea. Method of Choosing leleRBles. The lonKett dismission was over the method of chooslnst delegates to the state and district conventions. Williams, of Polk, moved that the county central com Ljnlttees choose the delegates, but Pullen. of Malheur, and Vinton, of Yamhill, and others objected on the (tround that In vome of the counties the central commit tees will not be representative of the fparty members. Pillion explained that irr I lib county but one candidate for the ( county committee has entered the primar ' ies. ami Pullen argued that it would not bo fair to allow a central committee, of one- member, or two, or three, to choose Mainour's four delegates. Others replied that Republicans could elect full county committees, where can didates have not appeared by petition, by 1 writing names on the primary ballot of the persons they want for precinct com mitteemen on the central committee. Finally, in order to harmonise the con JlictinK opinions, the central committee i resolved to allow each county committee to adopt the method of selecting dele ; atcs to the slnte and district conven . lions. The meeting was held in the office of Chairman Westgate. in Hamilton build ing. No reference was made to Statement No. 1, nor were any l-ecommendations made for nomination in next week's primal ies.

WIVES TELL OF CRUELTY Kuhy Wtlxon, 17 Years Old, De clares She Was Constant Object of Abuse and Threats From Fd Wilson. A continual round of -cruelty on the part of Kd Wilson, beginning with the application to his wife of v lie names, and e-nding with threats to kill her. was d'rr(hed l Ruby Wilson to Judge Cle land yesterday afirnoon. She -was auinR her husband h rhe Circuit Court to ob tain a, divorce, -whlh win granted when ahe had told her atory. Mrs. Wilson, who is hut a slip of a girl, 17 years old, said her husrmnd conlmuaUy a' lined her of disloyalty, c.no mkin? to besmirch her rerMjiHtlon before ih dewteea of the "Tongupa rrf Pire' wett. at the Glasgow Mission. That was fn March, last year. She Bald her husband followed up this treatment by slopping strangers on the street to Inform them that she was a wo man of questionable character and that she bolons-ed to the Holy Rollers. According to Mrs. "Wilsons story, her husband worked but one day during their married life. It was his habit, she said, to attend the meetings at the Glasgow Mission and borrow enonph money of some man present to pay for a room for that night. She said -they were continu ally compelled to eat their meals at five cent coffee houses. The couple have one child, born in De cember. The mother said that the last she heard the child was in care of the baby home. She was twice compelled to depend upon the public for aid. onoo being placed in the Poorhouse at Pendleton, and the last time receiving medical aid at the County hospital. She was permitted to resume her maiden name. Siiannon. ( M. L. Taft. alias the "Dirty-Faced Kid." was brought to the courtroom from the County Jail to corroborate her testimony. Taft was recently arrested by Sheriff Stevens and Deputy Leonard for a hold up at Arleta, He told of seeing Mrs. Wil son cruelly treated by her husband. Mrs. Wilson is being held at the County Jail as a witness against Taft. That her husband left her nine days after the wedding and that she was com pelled to pay his whisky bills, wine bills, and even the bill for the wedding rinsr, was the testimony brought out in the divorce suit of Susana Boucher against Thomas R. S. Boucher. Mrs. Boucher said her husband was an inveterate gam bler, and after the nuptials were over went to Tillamook to engage in his pro fession. He wrote to her to send him some money, and when she refused he did not return. Susie Green, her daugh ter by a former marrteige, said her mother knew Boucher but two days before the wedding. The decree was granted. Christina Liljlson said Philip Uljison was often brought home in a cab dead drunk, and that she used to wash and shave him so he could go to work the next day. She admitted that because he was a -heavy man she sometimes had a hard time tugging him into the house during the morning hours, and said when her strength was not equal to the task, he had to stay out the rest of the night. She said when they were married he worked In the Postofflce. but that he is now a saloonkeeper. She also secured a divorce. Alma FYedricka Johnson secured a di vorce from Swnn John Walfred Johnson, whom she married October 12. 1S"9S, in Helsingborg. Sweden. She said he once attempted to choke her to death, hut that she was rescued by boarders. She also said be would swear at her in Swe3ish, and once threatened to knock off her head: Mabel W. Chickering obtained a divorce from George S. Chickering on the ground of cruelty and non-support. She said her husband once went so far as to spit in her face. They were married In May, 1905. rECisroxs by judge clelaxd Gas Company's Demurrer in Suit by Insurance Company Sustained. Tn its suit against the Portland Gas Company the Frankfort Marine. Accident and Plate Glass Insurance Company will be eompellled to tile an amended com plaint.

Evanston the "close in" subdivision of the Spanton Company is the center of lot buying the past week placed on the market last Monday, over half the tract already sold. Evanston outclasses every other residence section of the city for the money. Take W.-W. car 14 minutes' ride the agent is there. .i-. ' w.' "T-." i t ' ri Crnrr of Kant Tweatj -seventh anil Ilhone Streets, Kvanston, W.-W. Carllne. J Here is a view in "EVANSTON." Just back of the big piiie is the W-W carline. This electric line furnishes, a first-class service between EVANSTON and the center of the city, and it only takes 14 minutes to make the trip. If The big building in the background is the Clinton Kelly School, and the street on which the several houses are shown is the big Powell Valley road one of the finest and most traveled thoroughfares of Portland. f When one comes to think of the thousands of peope living in and about Portland who are consuming over half an hour going to and from their business, it is not surprising that buyers look with favor on this close-in subdivision. f We have a little map of Evanston in our window (270 Stark street) showing sales made. Vifa mark off the lot3 as sold. Only 58 lots in the first place over one-third are already sold. if There is only one reason for this demand for Evanston lots, and that is that Evanston has more to commend' it than other subdivisions. It is the closest-in residence section of the city at the price $400 a lot, $10 a month. It has advantages that are head and shoul ders above other tracts of the city selling for $800 and over. fl While this is an advertisement to call your attention to the advantages of Evanston, it is not in the least sense an extravagant statement. We have had a number of the Portland Realty Board tell us, within the last 48 hours, that Evanston at $400 a lot is absolutely the finest buy in Portland. , ' f The Spanton selling contract provides that every lot must be sold in EVANSTON by the first of the month, and the only way this can be done is to show to a positive certainty that values here represent more for the money than any other lot investment in the city. Jf We want you to see Evanston today without fail. Either go to, the tract directly take the W-W car, and you will find an agent there or come direct to the Spanton office, 270 Stark street, and our representative will show you the tract.- You are wel - come to our Auto if it's more conven ient for you to see Evanston this way Both Phones mechanic". lien case of F. F. Burfltt against W. C. Moore. E. S. J. McAllister I,o.es Suit. ' Because a certificate of stock in tiie American Hospital Association was irreg ularly issued to E. S. J. McAllister, Judge Gantenbein, of the Circuit Court, decided .yesterday morning that McAllister can not recover on his investment. McAllis ter sued for an accounting upon the as sertion that the stock of the concern had been juggled to his detriment. In an nouncing his decision Judge Gantenbein said that from the testimony it was plain that Mr. McAllister had rendered services which should be paid for, but that recov ery of this amount should be. brought about by action at law. McAllister was allowed five days in which to file a mo tion for a new trial. Blotlgctt Trial June 11. George L. Blodprett. charged with the murder of Alice Gordon, will be given his second trial June 11. This date was sot by Judge Cleland yesterday. The case had been set for trial April 13. but witnesses from Montana were unable to be present on that date. As a result of his first trial Blodgett was sentenced to the gallows, but w-hen he case was appealed to the Supreme Court a new trial was granted. Suit Against R. A. Wade. That he w-as buncoed out of $1500 by R. A. Wade, of the Portland agency of the Anti-Scalpers' Association, is the allega tion of William H. Shea. Sr., in a suit which he has filed In the Circuit Court. He declares Wade induced him to pay J1500 for a half interest in Frankfort, Wash., property which Wade did not own. Sues for Price of Stock.
