NAMES ARE DESIRED
Mayor and Councilmen Will Se
lect Commission.
SUGGESTIONS ARE WANTED
From Lists Submitted. 13 Taxpayers
Will Be Chosen, Before Whom,
With Two Officials, Will Be
Brought Needed Changes.
Mayor Lane and Councilmen Cellars
s.z)Ji Baker, when they as a committee,
meet to select 13 taxpayers to review
the city charter and to prepare pro
posed amendments, will have a diffi
cult task on their hands. There will
be a large number-of names, furnished
by many organizations, both on the
Bast and West sides of the Willamette
River, from which to make final choice,
and it will be hard to decide upon
which of the men whose names are
submitted are best qualified to under
take the task before them.
The Mayor and Councilman Baker
and Cellars will wait a week or more,
-in order to give ample opportunity to
.organizations who may desire to send
in names, and the committee hopes to
secure lists from all of the important
'civic, industrial and improvement asso
ciations of the city. It is a most im
portant task that will confront the
committee of taxpayers, whoever they
may be, as the revision of the charter
is acknowledged to be a matter of the
deepest concern.
Mayor Lane - yesterday received a
communication from Secretary S. B.
Vincent of the Manufacturers' Associa
tion, containing the names of 14 of the
most prominent and influential men
engaged in the manufacturing indus
tries of Portland. The list is as fol
lows: A. T. Btlea. Central Sash ft Door Co.
, George Collins, Gorge Ainshe Co.
W. H. Bush on jr. Bushon A Co.
I. N. Fleischner, Flisehner, Mayer & Co,
R. H. Holmes. Holmes Canning Co
George Lawrence. George Lawrence Co.
F. L. Knight. Knifiht Packing Co.
William H. CQrbtat, Willamette Iron
Works.
S. B. Cobb. Standard Box 4 Lumber" Co.
John'Montag, Portland Stove Work!.
ts. M. Mean, Portland Cordate Co.
J. t Roberts. Peters & Roberts.
Hamuel Connell. Northwest Door Co.
A- M. Smith. Western Clay Co.
When Mayor Lane and Councilmen
Baker and Cellars have received all the
lists of names from the various organ
izations, they will meet and select from
all those submitted the complete list
of taxpayers, two of whom will be
City Attorney Kavanaugh and Chief
Ieputy Auditor Grutze. After choos
ing the full number, the 15 will organ
ize, and will probably hold a series of
meetings at which they will hear state
ments and propositions as to the re
visions that are believed best to be
made. All citizens, either individually
or as associations, will be given an op
portunity to be heard on any amend
ments they wish considered.

CAKE WILL REMAIN
Special sale fine shoes at Rosenthal's.
Will Not Resign as Republican
State Chairman.
TO DIRECT TAFT CAMPAIGN
With State Committeeman Williams
Will Go to Colorado Springs to
Confer With National
. Chairman Hitchcock.
W. M. Cake will not resign, neither is
he to be ousted as chairman of the Re
publican state central committee. He
will continue In his present position as
official head of the party organization in
this state and will personally conduct the
Taft campaign in Oregon.
This is the true situation as is well
understood among the party leaders. They
have always questioned the advisibillty
of any move to displace the state chair
man at the beginning of the Presidential
campaign when complete harmony within
the party Is desired.
"There never has been any idea on the
part of the members of the state central
committee to effect a change in its or
ganization." said Ralph E. Williams, of
Dallas, committeeman for Polk County
and National committeeman for Oregon,
at the Imperial Hotel, last night. "This
talk of my being elected as successor to
Mr. Cake has been altogether without
foundation and without my knowledge.
The members of the committee are all sat
isfied with Mr. Cake as chairman and are
resolved to make a vigorous campaign
In this state in the interest of Taft and
Sherman. I have never been a candidate
for state chairman and would not have
accepted the office had it been tendered
to me at any time, for the reason - that
as National committeeman I have not
the time to give to the work Involved in
the chairmanship of the state organiza
tion." Mr. Williams came to Portland yester
day to confer with ' Chairman. Cake In
response to telegrams each has received
from National Chairman Frank H. Hitch
cock, who has called a conference of the
National committeemen and the chair
men of the state central committees to
be held at Colorado Springs. July 30 and
21. Both Mr. Williams and Mr. Cake
expect to attend this conference and will
leave for the meeting place next Friday.
The telegram from Chairman Hitch
cock was a formal one and failed to In
dicate the nature of the business to be
considered.
"Knowing Mr. Hitchcock's remarkable
organising ability," said Mr. Williams
last night, "there can be no question but
the conference has been called to out
line vigorous and effective campaign work
in every state in the interest of the Re
publican ticket."

MEDAL FOR GIRL'S BRAVERY
CORA HOSPORD'S SAME MAY
BE SENT CARNEGIE FUND.
Deed in Saving Father and Uncle Is
Said to Be Most Heroic on Coast.
Girl Most Modest.
Admirers of the heroism displayed by
Miss Cora Hosford, who risked her life
at Washougal, Wash., In attempting to
rescue her father, uncle and cousin
from drowning in the Columbia River,
are discussing the advisability of sending
her name to the committee in charge of
the Carnegie hero fund.
It is declared that rarely, if ever, has
more real and spontaneous bravery been
displayed than the heroic deed of the girl
Saturday night. Though she risked her
own life In the attempt, she did not hesi
tate to plunge into the water to aid those
who needed her aid.
She Is said to 1e of a reticent and retir
ing disposition, and heartily averse tot the
sudden- fame which has come upon her.
as the result of her bravery. Ana indeed
she has not thought of her own actions,
as unusual or -worthy of special mention,
for she is grlefstricken at the death of
her cousin, Mildred Liong. who was
drowned. i
It Is considered likely that the facts
surrounding the rescue of her father and
uncle will be forwarded to the committee
In charge of the hero fund and a thor
ough investigation will be made by that
body. Such medals as are distributed
by the Carnegie fund committee have
been awarded to many women and to a
few girls, but never on the Pacific Coast
it is thought has there been a case more
worthy of commemoration.
Captain Hosford unhesitatingly declares
that he owes his life to his daughter. Mrs.
Patterson, mother of the girl who was
drowned, is still prostrated as a result
of her grief.
BOARD WANTS AUTOMOBILE
H. C. Campbell Thinks School Direc
tors Sadly Need One.
i
H. C. Campbell, a member of the Board
of Education, believes the taxpayers
should provide an automobile for the
members of the board, and he so de
clared himself yesterday afternoon at the
regular session of the directors. Auto
mobiles as a means of conveyance seem
to have, gotten a strong hold on public
officials, as Fire Chief Campbell and
City Engineer Taylor have also sought of
late to secure one each for their respect
ive departments.
Mr. Campbell's remarks, however, were
made more in the spirit of fun yester
day afternoon. Still, his 'report on mat
ters assigned to his committee for at
tention revealed the fact that It requires
much time and a great deal of streetcar
riding to perform the duties'1 of a school
director in a large city like Portland.
When it comes to purchasing automo
biles, however, the, members of the Are
committee of the executive board, as well
as Mayor Lane and Fire Chief Campbell,
have learned that it is no easy matter.
There are so many points to be consid
ered that It becomes a delicate task to
select a. machine, especially as each auto
mobile represented is the best.

This grand lodge session will be a

of excitement will be caused by the
opposing claims of Los Angeles and
