SENTIMENT HERE DIVIDED Party Leaders in Beaver State Yet Waver lit Deciding Whether to Support Wiloon or Harmon in Coming Contest, That overworked expression. "ThJ eyes of the country are on Oregon." will be particularly applicable next Spring. Especially will it be true as spplled to the aspirants for the Re publican and Democratic nominations for President. Oregon l one of five tatea In which the electors in the. primary election early next year will express their preference for President and Vice-President. The quintet, together with the datea of the primary election in each are: North Dakota. March 19: Wisconsin, April 2: Nehraeka, April 17: Oregon. April 1. and New Jersey, May 28. Aspirants to Vlelt Oregon. It la for this very reason that several of the aspiring. candidates for the head of the ticket have either vkilted or will visit Oregon personally or will have public sentiment sounded out through personal repreeentstlves. Governor Wil son, who would head the Democratic ticket, had thla purpose In mind when he visited this state and other Pacific Coast States recently. It is for the same purpose that Lieutenant-Governor Nichols, of Ohio, personal representa tive of Governor Harmon. Is now visit ing Western and Pacific Coast States. In fact, the preliminary visit of Mr. Nichols may ba followed late In the Fall by a visit of Governor Harmon. This activity ia particularly notice able among the prospective Democratic candidates. They are desirous of In suring for themselves, by working through effective organizations, which are being formed In these five states, tha biggest possible popular vote ex pression from the Democratic voters In the primary election for the effect the result may have In determining Demo cratic aenttment In tha states which will select delegates to tha National convention later. Oregoa Deaaecraa Split. Oregon Democrats are divided as to a choice for President. Some are sup porting Governor Wilson, while others prefer Governor Harmon. Immediately following the visit of Governor Wilson a few months ago. the Democrats for a time appeared to be carried quite completely away by the New Jersey man. But after sober reflection that enthusiasm haa abated somewhat and soma Democrats who two months ago were shouting for Wilson are now In clined to look to Harmon as the man to load the party. Tha more conservative Democrats at no time have favored Wilson, whom they regard aa the political pupil of Bryan. They have Insleted that the party should name for Ita candidate a man who can count upon the support of the rank and file of the party and be reasonably certain of carrying some of the large doubtful statea of the East, which is essential to victory. xvilseBe Attltwde Vapopular. At the same time the more radical Democrats are not satisfied with Wil son. They are demanding that their candidate muet stand for the initiative, the referendum and the recall. Wilson professes to stand for these measures of popular legislation as they are . enunciated in the .so-called "Oregon 1 system." but he has balked at the ap plication of the recall to the judiciary. This is where he has lest ground with the radical Democracy in this atate. which feela that if It Is necessary to compromise at all they may just as well throw their support to a conserva tive as to get behind a half-may radi cal. The arrival of Lieutenant - Governor Nichols, representing Governor Harmon, with the message from the East that the Democrats must nominate a man who can carry Ohio and some of the other large atates in the East, has also given the Democrats food for thought Oregon Democrats want to win. and they are desirous of assisting to pick a winner. Although satisfied that Wilson may be strong In some of the Insurgent states, they have serious doubts If he ran carry the large doubtful statea where the Democrats must go for the necessary electoral votes, in addition to those of the South, to win. Orgaalsatloaa Are Formed. Senator Chamberlain lias announced himself as favoring Wilson, but other members of the party who have worked shoulder to shoulder with the Senator In former ronflicta are Inclined toward Harmon. Lieutenant-Governor Nicholas who Is forming working Harmon or ganisation In the Western and Pacific Coast States, was called to Seattle, Wash., yesterday. He expecta to re turn to this city Wednesday, when he will hold a further conference with lo cal Democrata for the purpose of per fecting plans for organising Harmon sentiment among the Democrata tn this state.

B. Rose Esther Jseobaon HsJbel Parker Lady Jaoobaon Maude Hllunaa Maxmllltaa Walter Busby TO MOST of the audience gathered yesterday to witness "The House Next Door" at the Baker Theater, the play was a big comedy and brought an endless chain of laughs: for others it waa an admirable-" leee of stage struc ture, subtle in dcalin. and thoroughly artistic In results. 7. In its essential points, and particularly in He leading role, it is well acted: Reminiscent in a large measure of ZangwlU's "Meltlnsfrat." the story Is only another 'Tmirg of oil upon the troubled waters" of religious and racial differences. Naturally the intol erance is held by the Christian: the primal Interest centering around the intermarriage or the sons and daugn tors of an English nobleman and a Jew. who haa been knighted. Pride of ancestry and a differing in religion on the one aide, with Hebraic devotion to the highest standards and ldeala on the other, make the contrast of espe cial force. The old and poverty-strick en scion of nobility. Sir William Cots wold, holds an Intense hatred for all Jews, and In particular for his neigh' bor. Sir Isaac Jacobson. Broken In for tune, but certainly not In spirit, a gen- tleman of the old school, he voices on every occasion his choleric and bigoted opinion of the man In the house next door. The presentation of Jewish suffer ance and magnanimity Is most Impres sive. Through It the old Englishman Is brought to an understanding of the real nobility of his neighbor, good feel ing replaces turbulence, and narrow mindedness gives way to reason. The actlna; in "The House Next Door" ia decidedly of "The Better Sort." The role of Sir Cotswold. easily the dom inant note In the entire cast, is plsyed by William V. Mong. an actor known to Portland by reason of hla work two seasona ago with the Baker company. In the main his performance of the Irascible and belligerent old lord is worth while. His method Is clean and crisp and always consistent in drawing. While he does not neglect the dramatic effectiveness of the character, ha aub ordlnates It as far as expediency per mits. His makeup la a triumph; Ills assumption of mannerisms complete Most fortunate is Mr. Mong in beUig aupported by a cast that pi aye with ease and certainty. George Dayton provides an excellent foil for the lead ing role. In his portrayal of Sir Isaac Jacobson. Mr. Dayton adds to a digni fied presence a strength and verve of acting that Is Impressive, standing out particularly against the querulous exploslveness and Insufferable ego of Cotswold. The families of the two men. their wives and children: a theatrical pro moter, loud and venturesome, complete the cast. Cotswold's daughter Is brought as an actual being before the audience by the clever work of Grace Hale. who. while Just a trifle heavier than one la led to believe leading women should be, is withal a capable actress. The remainder of the cast ie ade quate. Throughout the stage appur tenances, shewing the drawing-rooms of the Cotswold and Jacobson homes are In good taste. The same bill will run all week at the Baker with the usual matinees. SCOTCH GIRL IN PORTLAND Jennie Fletcher Scores Hit in Bobby Barns' Dialect.
