President of the United State to Con
stable and Coroner. They will write
their verdict today. An Idea of the
multiplicity of candidate necking; of
fice may be leathered from the fart
that with 4 nominations to be made
In Multnomah County, there are 141
aspirants on the Republican tl ket.
lUtndklatea for the same number of
offices on the Democratic ticket are
not so plentiful.
Supporters of President Taft. Sen
ator L Follelte and ex-President
Rooserelt are equally confident they
win carry the state for their candi
date. The Taft forces, with the op
poaitlon rote divided, are particularly
sanffulne of victory. The content for
the .Democratic indorsement lies be
tween Wilson and Clark.
Wtwwer Hard Pick.
The nepubllrans will Indorse, either
t'nlted State Senator Borah, of Idaho,
or Thomas MrCusker. I. Kollotte's
campaign manager In this state, for
Vice-President by writing their namea
on the ballot. remocrata will indorse
I'nlted State Senator Chamberlain for
the same, nomination.
With IS candidate on the Re-publican
ticket and ID aspirants on the. Demo
cratic ticket for National deleaate. and
only ten to elect from each party, with
the choice of the Individual voter lim
ited to one candidate, a modern Solo
mon would be required to puess the
winners. The fact Is, It would not be
surprising If the official count would
be necessary to determine the success
ful candidates.
In all probability the five candidates
for Presidential electors, aunrKeeted and
recommended by both parties, will be
nominated. They are: Itepubllcan E.
V. Carter, of Jackson; William ManVev.
of Harney: J- M. lepper. M. J. Mtc

Bra SelHac Look (ieod.
Indications, founded on reports from
every county In the state, favor the
nomination of Ben Sc'Mns for United
States Senator over Oregon's senior
Senator. Jonathan Bourne. Supporters
of Hourne have been exceedingly act
ive In the last ten days, but it Is not
helieved they have turned the tide from
Selling;. An eleventh-hour coup of the
l;ourne forces appeared yesterday, when
personal letters to voters In different
parts of the state were mailed by F. C.
Knapp. of this city; A. C. Dixon, of the
Itooth-Kelly Company, of Lane County,
nnd other men of large financial Inter
ests. These gentlemen In their letters
Indorsed Bourne for rcnomlnation and
re-election.
Kor Representative In Congtesa from
this district, the fight unquestionably
Is between Circuit Judge Gartenbein
and A. W. Lfferty, Incumbent of the
office. Frienda of Judge Oantenbeln

Judge Morrow, who asks another
term, and William C. Benbow. his only
opponent, have both conducted active
campaigns. The result promises to be
lose. For Circuit Judge of Depart
ment No. . to succeed Judge Ganten
hem. seven candidates are before the
people. Few will undertake to pick
the winner and none will venture a
cuess as to the order In which they
will finish the contest. The candidates
are: John Dltehburn, who was dls
astrousty defeated by Judge Gatens
two years ago: T. J. Gelaler. William
Y. Masters. Fred I. Olsort. now Justice
of the Peace: William Reid. ex-Justice
or tee r-eaee: waidemar Seton. mem
ier of Mayor Rushlight's cabinet, and
Ceorge Taxwell. who Is Municipal
Judge.
Indorsed and supported as he Is sol
idly by the law-abiding element of this
county. Walter H. Kvana la counted a
reasonably sure winner of the nomina
tion for District Attorney. Such will
be the resutt If his supporters will be
as alert In setting to the polls and
voting as the hosts that stand for vice
and disregard of the statutes. It Is be
lieved Mr. Kvana' moat formidable op
ponent la George J. Cameron, tncum
ment. Lectalatlve Ticket (fln.
Probably never before In this county
was the situation regarding the Legis
lative ticket and the probable nominees
more complicated. For Joint-Representative.
W. H. Chatten and David K.
I-ofgren are the contestants. Mr.
Chatten has a slight advantage In hav
ing served at one session from this
county.
There are IX candidates for the five
nominations as State Senator. Each
of the 12 has been conducting a more
or less active campaign. M. J. Clo
heasy. real estate dealer, probably will
be nominated.
It 1 dl(Tl cult to forecast who the
other nominees will be. Aa a. rule
the candidates are all representative
business men of more or less acquaint
ance and prominence In the com
munity. B-it It will be In nominating 1! can
didates for State Representative that
the voter will be confused. For a doxen
nominations there are S candidates.
The great majority consists of men
practically unknown. '
w Have t'kaace.
Among those who have been more or
less active In the campaign and have
received assurances of support are
James D. Abbott, C. N. McArthur and
John C. Bryant, ex-members of the
House: D. C. Lewis. John K. Latour
ette and Harold A. Wllklns. The labor
organisations have been centering their
efforts in support of Arthur W. Law
rence, secretary of the Central Labor
Council. R. O. Rector and M. J. Mur

L'xccutlve Board.
The fl?ht for County Commissioner
seema to be between W. L. Lightner.
incumbent: Dan McAllen and T. J.
Kreuder, the latter liavtnc the sup
port of the labor organizations. Some
money has been wagered on Lightner's
nomination.
One of the closest contests that will
he decided today Is the nomination of
Sheriff. Thla fisrht Is betwern Harry
C. McAllister. Wallace B. Holllngs
worth. W. H. Fitzgerald, organised
labor's candidate;, w. C. North and
Willis Fisher. The result ia uncertain.
Word Sore Wlnrr.
The winner will be opposed in the
ceneral election next November by
Tom M. Word, ex-Sheriff, whose name
will be written on the ballot by the
Dcurocrata as their candidate.
The race for County Clerk Is be
lieved to lie between John B. Coffey
and IL C. Smith, the latter being chief
deputy under County Clerk Fields.
Friends of Joseph S. Hutchinson con
tend that he will finish in lirst place.
Among the minor county offices, the
most lively contest I for Coroner. With
five candidates In the field, the nomina

Dr. Sam C. Slocum or Dr. James C.
Hayes.
For Justice of the Peace, with two
to nominate. J. W. BelL James E. Craib
and Joseph 11. Jones are thought to be

Make Final Talk.
With bras bands, tin horns, whistles
and noise-producer of almost every
description, mingled with the hoarse
shouts of ardent political street
speakers In one incoherent uproar.
Portland experienced last night the
most lively political demonstration in
Its history.
Never before, it Is declared, has
sunn a commotion as waged from T
o'clock until near midnight. The streets
were so crowded that doxen of police
officers were required to keep open
sufficient room on the sidewalks to al
low free passage, and in many places
the streets were so completely block
added that It was Impossible for teams
to pa through.
Dimly mingled In the confusion were
the strains of an occasional brass band,
vainly attempting to overcome the tu
mult to the extent of attracting the
eye of the voter to he glaring sign of
an ambitious eff Icesecker. On every
corner of the business section, street
speakers addressed the surging masses.
The peakera shouted themselves hoarse
lit the endeavor to overcome the clamor
and get before the public the reform
measures upon which each candidate
has builded his political campaign.
It was the last opportunity of the
various candidates to present their
cases, and the aspirants to the vari
ous offices were out almost to a man.
The most lively campaign was that
promoted In behalf of Walter H. Evans
for District Attorney. A total of more
than 100 speakers Joined In the sup
port of Mr. Uvans and presented his
case te the people, not only on every
corner of the business district, but also
in many parts of the residence sec
tions. Also in evidence were the supporters
of George J. Cameron and Allan R. Joy,
both of whom are running in opposi
tion to Mr. Evan. Occasional out
bursts of cheer on the streets Indi
cated the " completion of one of tli
addresses of tile speakers.
Roosevelt was represented on the
street by a large sight-seeing auto
mobile almost hidden In a luring sign
and supported by a brass hand. Prac
tically all of the other candidates made
themselves known with banners asd
streamers, which were carried through
the streets by men and boys and on
wagons.
Last night's demonstration waa the
wlndup of the primary campaign. The
corrupt practlcea act prevents any
campaigning today.

LONDON. April IS. I Special.")
Among all the old-time delights that
are to be clustered in "Shakespeare's
England" at Earl's Court In aid of the
Shakespeare MemoriaT National Thea
ter, the merriest and not the least pic
turesque will he a reslistlc revival of
Bartholomew Fair. This la to be a
central feature in the Empress Hall,
transformed for the nonce Into Old
Smlthfleld Just as Shakespeare knew it.
Practically the whole design Is now
completed by Tatrlck Kit-wan In his
Elizabethan "capacity as master of the
revels and manager of the Globe Thea
ter. It already promisesa scene of
hesrty old-fashioned picturesque Jol
lity such as London has hardly seen
since the "Bartholomew" Itself was In
its glory.
As may be supposed. Earl's Court
will present a very different spectacle
from Bartholomew Fair as It was In
Its last, worst, draggled days. These
are still remembered by some old folk,
for it was not stopped until 1835. Even
now, among the brethren of the Char
terhouse, la an old actor. Joseph Cave,
who is probably the last living player
who actually appeared In the famoua
Richardson's shows, almost the one rep
utable attraction that then remained In
the fair.
Fair Be Realistic.
The Fair In "Shakespeare's England"
will be shown aa realistically as Is
humanly possible, exactly as It was In
its Elizabethan heydny and as Shakes
peare, Ben Johnson, Dekker and all the
galaxy of Elizabethan playwrights and
poets reflect it In a thousand allusions.
Around will stretch 18th-century
Smlthfleld aa It is shown In the old
prints, with the pleasant rural up
lands of Pentonvllle and Merrle Isling
ton beyond. Old English pastimes w-iu
be going forward everywhere bowling
and archery and tilting at the ring. The
whole scene will be crowded with the
many-colored throng that used to make
holiday there In Queen Bess's time fof
It days, from August 4 onward, an
"August Bank Holiday" that the mod
ern Londoner might well envy them!
Even by Shakespeare'a time. It ap
pears, the original serious purpose of
the "Bartholomew" as a cloth-fair
seems to have been almost completely
lost. So Mr. Kirwan will have historic
authority for letting genuine merchan
dise give place almost everywhere to
booths and ahows and motley crews of
tumblers. Jesters, mountebanks, acro
bats, wtTmmers and Merry-Andrews.
Still, there must have been many an
Autolycus there with his trinkets and
ribbons and gilt-gingerbread and
"fairings." and the booths around the
fair at Earl's Court will show forth
wares that were known In every case
to be sold there in Shakespeare'a day.
Rllsabethaa Tobeccw Pictured.
There will be Elizabethan pipes and
tobacco, such aa- Sir Walter Raleigh
had Just discovered In old Virginia,
though Shakespeare himself so curi
ously ignores them. There will be,
too, the famous scented gloves intro
duced by Sir Thomas Gresham, and
Elizabethan dolls. "Bartholomew" ba
bies." as -they were called, playing
cards and dice. At one stall, roast
pork will be sold In memory" of
Shakespeare's one allusion to "Barthol
omew pig" In the second part of "Henry
IV."
Some of the horribly cruel pastimes
that were prevalent In Shakespeare's
time will have, of course, to be tem
pered with mercy. Only by a picture
will be recalled the wager that two
Elizabethan youths actually did make,
to pit a bulldog with its forepaws cut
off against a bull. It is said that the
dog got the better of the bull and the
wager was won.
At the same time every sort of harm
less frolic will be represented. There
will be an Elizabethan inn with the
genuine old sign of the "Hare and Ta
bor," a hare beating a tabor having
been a "sight" that entertained our
Anglo-Saxon forefathers centuries be
fore Shakespeare saw the light Here
Robin Hood and Maid Marion, and
Friar Tuck and John Scarlet will dis
port themselves, while another feature
of the show will be the bringing in
of the Lord of Misrule in mock solem
nity. With him. In accordance with
an old description of the fair, will he
a "brethren companie. their pipers pip
ing, their drummers drumming, their
stumpses dancing, their nella Jingling,
their handkerchiefs fluttering about
their heads like madmen, their hobby
horses and other monsters skirmishing
among the throng."

side of the caravan was paintel in
white letters the legpnd, "Syrira Lee.

In every-, -respect she lived up to her
assumed character, and did a. regular
