s VICTORY OF TAFT STIRS ENTHUSIASM Portland Supporters Rejoice at Renomination, but Re- ' gret T. R.'s Action. . ROOSEVELT IS CRITICISED Many Republican . Assert . That Colonel's Egotism Caused Him to Become Disloyal, While - Others Support Cause.' News of th renomination of Presi dent Taft was received here enthuM astlrally by aupportera of th President. With equal Interest and marked dem onstration partisans of ex-President Roosevelt greeted the announcement that he bad been nominated by a sub sequent convention to bead the new Progressive party. Expressions of regret that two nom inations should have been made by the delegates at Chicago were frequent from those Interviewed. Many Repub- 1 1 cans were harsh In their criticism of , Roosevelt, whose egotism, they aver, caused him to prove disloyal to the Re publican party to the extent of vlr ;! tually disrupting it. Others viewed the i results of the convention from another angle and unhesitatingly declared they I would enroll under Roosevelt's leader I ship and support him faithfully in tha campaign that has been launched. Nat All Will Follow Coloael. I Enough was gathered from the ex I pressions obtained from leading Re J publicans to Justify the conclusion that, although the radical supporters of the ex-President will abandon the Repub lican party, many will refuse to go with htm. Neither are the La Follette forces j In this state expected to flock to the i proposed new party under Roosevelt's ! leadership. Friends of the President ' praised him for his work and pro t. nounced him the best equipped man In the United States for re-election to the '. Presidency. Prominent among the radical Roose velt progressives In Oregon who in-'- dorsed Roosevelt's independent candl ; dacy last night and promised to give 1 him unmeasured support In the contest " were W. S.'U'Ren and State Senator Dan KelJaher. "Most assuredly I shall be for Roose velt as the candidate of the Progressiva I party." said Mr. U'Ren at his home In Oregon City last night. "Roosevelt stands for something that Is progres- slve and. besides, he stands for what is L right and honest. I firmly believe that J- Roosevelt is the choice of the people of two-thirds of the states if an expres- sfon could be obtained from them." Third Tern Barely Missed. . t "From the reports that hava been re ceived from Chicago." said W. B. Ayer, - chairman of the Portland Taft commit - tee In the recent Oregon primary cam paign, "the people of this Nation can .'".'now appreciate to the full extent by what a narrow margin they have es caped the perils of a third term. At ',' the very moment It became apparent to , -', Roosevelt that he could not secure the ", .nomination himself, he bent his entire -'. efforts towards preventing any other progressive from becoming, the Repub lican standard bearer. It was a case of .' sacrificing principles to his personal " fortunes. The world has never wit nessed a more ruthless exhibition of defeated ambition. It was an exampln of ego with which the country wan "never before confronted. - "At the base of the Koosevelt oppo " sitlon is the deep-rooted antagonism to a third term. If Roosevelt had advo cated progressive principles for the benefit that would accrue to the coun try, there are many men In the ranks of the Progressives who are splen didly equipped for the Presidency, any one of whom could have been nomi nated by the convention. President la Eulogised. "In President Taffs renomination. the Republican party has for its can didate a man of most sterling integrity and loyal patriotism. His four years of service during a period of great political and social unrest splendidly . equips hlm for the great office of President. While his administration has been unfortunate in some respects, he has been greatly misunderstood in many Instances. It must be remem bered that the duties of the office are many and varied. If he is not as pro gressive as some of as would wish, he is. with this exception, the best equipped man in the United States for the position he now holds. "Before another Presidential election takes place I hope to see two changes brought about: First, limiting the term of President to one term of six years: secondly, a uniform National direct primary law for the election of President by direct vote." Interviewed on the Chicago nomina tions, various Republicans expressed themselves as follows: Kellaher for Roosevelt. , State Senator Kellaher I am not sur prised at what has taken place in Chi cago: I expected It. National politics are passing through the same evolu tion that has taken place in Oregon 'politics. We have aet the pace; other states will follow. . The organisation of a new party Is necessary to the re form that is demanded by the people in-American politics. Somebody had to lead the movement and it appar ently is Roosevelt. I shall surely support Roosevelt as the nominee of the Progressive - party and shall do what 1 ran to bring about his elec tion. Joseph Simon I am for President Taft and have confidence In the good sense and sober thought of the voters that they will re-elect him. I expect the President and his candidacy for an other term to continue to grow in strength as they have since Roosevelt began his assaults against the Admln- - Iteration, Charles F. Beebe The nomination of both Taft and Roosevelt presents a very deplorable situation. I am glad that Taft was renominated, but it is greatly to be regretted that Roosevelt organised another convention. Had i sincerely - hoped this might be pre . vented. Roosevelt's action la not only i disloyal to the party, but la- most un fortunate. j George K. McCord The Oregon del ecation at Chicago represented noth ing. Oregon wants Roosevelt and will ' vote for him. For ona I ahall be a charter member of the new Progres , sivs party in Oregon. Taft Jut as ProirreaalTe. M. J. Clohessy Am highly elated with the renomination of President i Taft. It was the wisest nomination ' that could hava been made. I believe he will be re-elected- Taft will con i tinue to grow in strength. - The pro ' grescive sentiment which is sweeping I this country today will not prove per 1 nianent, but will soon die out. Roose- velt at the head of the proposed new party, which, despite the -name "Pro ; gressive." is nothing more nor less than " the "Roosevelt party." will not make the" showing that his supporters are expecting. Taft la Juat as much a progressive as Roosevelt Is, anyway. E. W. Wright. Colonel Roosevelt will not make it. I think, though, that Taft s chances are favorable. Of course the formation of a third party :n bound to strengthen the Democrats: the only question to my mind is how united the latter party wjli be. If they are, then they have a good chance to pull oft the election, but it will be , a close fight in any case.'- ----- Sig Slchel Of course I am very glad that Mr. Taft is renominated. I do not think Roosevelt has any chance of succeeding with a third party. That Is a thing that has been tried before, and by a strong candidate, but it baa failed and will fail again. At the present moment there Is a good deal of senti ment for Roosevelt. When the elec tion -comes round In November, peo ple will have done some sound think ing, the excitement will have died down, and In my opinion the country districts will stay with the party, and Taft will win. John F. Logan The result at Chicago is the only logical conclusion the Re publicans -could ' come to. It insures regularity in the Republican party. It clearly disposes of the insurgency movement, also it disposes of tha third term bugaboo which Roosevelt's nomi nation would have put us up against. I don't think the new party will amount to anything. Roosevelt un doubtedly will change his mind before the end of the week. Of course, much depends ui on the Democratic nomtaee. The Colonel is not so Impetuous as people think he is. He puts a lot of study into his Impetuosity. James B. Kerr Under the circum stances the convention did very wisely In nominating Taft. The President Is entitled to the nomination. It Is what the party should have done. C. U. Gantenbeln I prefer not to make any statement at thla time. Harrison Allen I think the Repub lican party did right, in nominating Taft and Sherman. Taft will be elect ed unless It should happen that Roose velt succeeds in disrupting the party. In that case he would assist in the elec tion of a Democrat. Taft has been a safe ' and sane President, and should command the respect of all true Re publicans. The party ought not to be sacrificed for the aggrandizement of Roosevelt. It isn't a party of men. but a party of principles that are larger than Roosevelt or anybody else. As to the new "Progressive" party, I think it will attract to Its fold all the disgruntled men and those who hava no loyalty to any party. This is not a time for a new party. It is a time when the country demands a sober and settled executive. , W. D. Fenton In my Judgment the outcome of the Chicago convention means the election of a Democratic President. I am not surprised, how ever. I expected two nominations. I expected Roosevelt's followers would bolt the convention and nominate him. It clearly means that the country will now look to Baltimore for the future President. The formation of a new party I consider a great mistake. It will poll about one-third of the Re publican votes. I think, but not much of the Democratic The outcome of the convention places In history a man with a disappointed ambition. Roose velt was most anxious to be nominated. Ex-Senator C. W. Fulton The re nomination of President Taft was wise. The campaign was waged on his Administration, and I believe that there has been no better Administration in the history of the party. I believe that Taft will grow In the public estimation. The people, as they study his record, will be more and more convinced that he has been actuated by the best In terests of the people and that he has endeavored to administer to the public welfare. The Chicago .convention, in my estimation, could not have taken better action. But I cannot yet believe the reports that Roosevelt and his fol lowers have held another so-called con vention. 1 am sure that they, when they have taken a second thought, can not feel that they have been justified In their action and their attempt to overthrow the Republican party. Roose velt has been given, at the hands of the Republican party, the highest honors that man can receive. Every policy that he has advocated and that has appealed to the people has been followed out by Taft. F. S. Fields. County Clerk I am very sorry to say that to all appearances the Republicans are "down and out." Roose velt la foolish to attempt a third party, as he cannot win the election. The Republican forces, however, are bound to be weakened, with the probable' struggle between Taft and the Demo crats a close one, unless there also is a split in the ranks of the latter party. That la not likely, I think, as the Dem ocrats generally are together when the time comes. W. F. Woodward As the situation now stands it appears that the welfare of the country is to be disregarded and the Republican party wrecked to sat isfy tha ambition of bne man, under the guise- of serving the- whole people. I can see no sound reason for the move ment of the Roosevelt people to form a third party. - SHERMAN DOUBLY HONORED Renomination to Vice-Presidency Is First In Three-Qnarters Century. UTICA. N. T June 23. Vice-President Sherman - made the following statement last night: "I am not unmindful of the honor conferred by the nomination by the Republican National convention as the party's candidate for Vice-President. To appreciate its full significance, one must remember that not for three quarters of a century has a renomina tion been accorded to anyone for this office. "It has long been known to my close, personal friends that my preference was to retire from public office at the close of the present term and at no time have I been a candidate for re nomination. I have been too greatly honored by the party, however, to de cline further service when its leaders and its representatives by their con vention action have expressed a be lief that- that service was required." BALDWIN IS FOR HARMONY Connecticut Governor Draws Moral From Chicago Situation. NEW HAVEN. ConiL, June 23.

The sev enth annual convention of the Oregon State Bankers' Association, held here Friday and Saturday, endedlate Satur day. It was attended by many promi nent bankera from important financial centers, who manifested much Interest in the resources of this state. These bankers of National reputation recog nize Oregon's association as one of the most efficiently organized and capably managed in tho United States. C. S. Loveland. bank examiner of the Portland Cleartng-House, gave an ad dress on "Past-Due Paper," which was followed by an address by Dr. W. J. Kerr, president of the Oregon Agri cultural College, on the subject of "The Country Life." . Rural Schools Topic. Dr. Kerr. In advocating the better ment of the rural school systems, said the "educational and social advantages of the city are the magnetic forces which draw country people cityward." "The country school work should be re-directed and adapted to their en vironment." he said. "The schools must train for country life instead of away from it. Industrial courses must be provided and adapted to the needs of the community. The productive powers of the farmer must be - in creased. With greater earning capacity will come -other improvements which will add to the advantages ef farm life and tend to increase farm popu lation." L. R. Alderman. State Superintendent of Public Instruction, gave an instruc tive address on "The State Bankers and What They Are Doing for Indus trial Education Through the Public Schools of Oregon." This address was followed by the report of Emery Olmstead, chairman of the committee on agricultural de velopment and education, which- showed that bankers of the state have aided greatly In this work the past few months, and It is believed that they intend to give financial support to th-j establishment of experimental-- fields and improvement of agricultural meth ods now being conducted by the Agri cultural College. Money Exemption Urged. During the five-minute talks by rep resentatives from the various counties on local conditions. W. L. Thompson, vice-president of the American Nation al Bank, of Pendleton, -recommended the indorsement and support of the as sociation for the Initiative measure proposed by the State Tax Commission for the exemption from taxation - of money and credits. In emphasizing his remarks Mr. Thompson cited the fact that the State of Washington has for - a number of years exempted money and credits from assessment. He mentioned that the harm resulting from the operation of the present tax laws, particularly in Eastern Oregon, warrants the repeal of such a law. He pointed out the invest ment by local Investors In securities and Investments in other states and in Canada. Mr. Thompson said that the high rate paid by borrowers on real estate mortgages was In large meas ure due to the existence and enforce ment of this law. His address was approved by the as sociation and the association passed a resolution to take some measures to have the law made inoperative. Officers Are Elected. Resolutions were also adopted by the association thanking Secretary J. L. Hartman and retiring President R. L. Durham for their excellent service the past year. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: Leslie Butler, president: W. L. Thompson, vice-president: John L. Hartman. secretary: M. G. Hope, treasurer. Executive com mittee A. C.

Haskell, secretary of the Kings County com mittee, Mr. Woodruff says that In his Judgment the destruction of the Re publican party is Inevitable as a re sult of this National convention. Mr. Woodruffs telegram says in part: "The utterly ruthless subversion of the popular will expressed by our fel low Republicans of the great Repub lican states by the National committee on credentials and finally by this fraudulently constituted convention, whereby the destruction of the Re publican party, in my political Judg ment, Is Inevitable, as I told my fellow Brooklvn delegate when they arrived here, after I had carefully informed myself regarding the situation, compels me to take this course."

VICTORY FOR TAFT SEEN Lawyer Says Better to Lose With ' Taft Than Win With .T. R. Opinions are divided on the outcome Of the election of President since the nomination of Taft was announced. On the streets many say that Roosevelt was robbed of states that belonged to him, and that the outcome will be a Democratic! President. William O'Donnell. a retired Portland attorney and lumber manufacturer, takes an optimistic view of the situa tion. "It would be better to lose with Taft than to win with Roosevelt," said Mr. O'Donnell. last night, "aa it would have disrupted the Republican party had Roosevelt been nominated. "Roosevelt will divide the vote of the Democrats as much as that of the Re publicans. Taft will win because only 40 per cent of the Republican party voted at the primaries and the other 60 per cent stay-at-home vote will be straight Republican. "Roosevelt was backed by a Morgan, banker, beef trust man and other moneyed Interests. Taft will be helped In the November election by that fact and because Penrose and other bosses did not want him. They had to select him to defeat Roosevelt because his record was clean. "Heney and Johnson did more to hurt Roosevelt than any two men of Taft's did. "The Democratic convention prob ably will stampede to Bryan in obtain ing a progressive Democrat. "Roosevelt said that Taft and Root were the two best men In his Cabinet and awarded both with positions of highest honor. If they are as bad as he makes out at present, why should he be allowed to select another Cab inet and perhaps make 'similar mis takes? "That the Democratic, party is not competent to rule has been shown. More people were fed by charity during Cleveland's administration than in the 50 years of Republican administrations which preceded." - - BRYAN PREACHES HARMONY Party Leader Says He Wants Peace at Opening of Convention. r - -i ' - ' - FORT WAYNE, -Ind..

"What I have done has been done in the interest of har mony. As you will see. from the tele gram to the Presidential candidates, I did not attempt,. to . name any person for the place, but urged -.that the . con vention find a temporary chairman a gentleman suitable to the .two leading candidates and thus make sure of a harmonious opening of the convention. "Instead, the sub-committee selected a reactionary to open a progressive convention. . No intelligent man could believe that such a move Is in the in terest of harmony at a time like this. I hope that the full committee will select some man in harmony with the majority sentiment of the. convention and thus give the Democrats a united beginning." Samuel Gompers. who was on the train, expressed his disappointment at the action of the Republican National convention.

PARIS, June 'I. (Special.) A pop ular French actor, M. Le Bargy, has trod the boards of the Comedle Fran calse wor the last time, thus severing a connection of 81 years. But M. Le Bargy is not retiring from practice of his art,-as he Is engaged to appear at the Porte Saint Martin Theater next season.

Le Bargy, according to precedent, will beordered to pay enormous dam ages. But tha peculiarity of these ac tions is that the verdicts of the court! invariably remain platonlc.

DUELLING T0BE CHANGED Kaiser Plans fo Remodel Code to Eliminate Inhuman Side. BERLIN, June V (Special.) Ger many's Inhuman duelling rules soon will be remodeled by the Kaiser, who will issue a cabinet order stating that duelling is only compulsory for of ficers in the case of gross insult, and that when religious acruples interfere no duel shall be necessary. The Kaiser's action has been caused by the indignation - of Roman Catholics throughout. Germany over compulsory duelling. . , - As the Roman Catholic party is very powerful in the Reichstag, the Kaiser is anxious to secure its support in his fight againsf the Socialists. It is not supposed that the Kaiser's order' wll be obeyed by officers unless they are punished for duelling, and it probably will bring about the resignation of General von Heerlngen, who is an ad vocate of duelling.
