YAM HI LI READY FOR FOURTH
Speakers From Portland Selected at
Two Points.
MMINXVILLE, Or.. July 2. (Spe
cial.) Portland attorneys are In de
mand for the Fourth of July orations
In Yamhill County. John C. McClue,
of Portland, will be the leading speak
er of the day at Carlton. Frank Col
lier, of Portland, will speak at the cel
ebration held at Bernard's Grove, near
McMinnville.
Besides these two places three other
towns in the county will celebrate the
Nation's day of birth; they are Amity.
Sheridan and Dayton. Francis V. Gal
loway, an attorney of McMinnville. will
orate at Amity. Every town has made
elaborate preparations for the day, and
these places being all reached over ex
cellent roads, many automobile owners
will visit all five places daring the
day.
FUNDS GONE, WORK HALTS
Government Dredge Put Out of Com
mission by Recent Decision.
TILLAMOOK, Or July 2. (Special.)
The Government dredge has been put
out of commission for lack of funds,
and is now laid up on account of the
decision in the Port of Tillamook case.
The port had been furnishing money
to Improve the channel betwoen this
city and the bay, a large part of which
was used to keep open the channel on
the bay. No money will be available
until the pending rivers and harbors
bill is passed and the money made
available. Thers Is an appropriation
of $5000 for Tillamook, which will not
go far In keeping the channel open
between this city and the bay for two
years, as the maintenance charges for
the channel on the bay are heavy, as
the Government closed up the Sturgeon
channel, which was the best channel
on the bay and would cost less to
maintain.
There are several places on the bay
where the channel is tilling up, and if
something Is not done to keep this
open it Is going to make it difficult
for the steamer Sue H. Elmore to reach
this city. This work would have been
done by the Port of Tillamook had the
case been decided In Its favor, and
what funds it has on band will be re
turned to the taxpayers. Although the
dairymen fought the Port of Tillamook,
the large quantity of cheese manufac
tured in this county is still shipped
out by steamer, the rate on the rail
road being double that by water trans-'portation.

WILSON RELATIVE GLAD
COCSIY OF GrOVERXOR LIVES I
. THIS CITY,
Three Other Portland Men, Who
Were Doctor's Students, Send
Him Congratulations.
To the members of one Portland
household Governor Wilson's nomina
tlon for the Presidency may be regard
ed as an event of much more than mere
political interest. Captain Alfred M.
Wilson, of 691 Marshall street, la a
second cousin of Governor Wilson, and
their families are on the most intimate
terms.
When Governor Wilson visited Port
land in May, 1911, he was the guest of
his relatives, passing as much of his
leisure as he could with them. Cap
tain Wilson's father, John A. Wilson,
of Franklin, Pa., is Governor Wilson's
cousin, and the two are frequent vis
itors at each other's homes.
Captain Wilson Is the Northwest rep
resentative of the Galena Signal Oil
Company and Is away from the clty
much of the time. He will not return
home for several days, but Mrs. Wilson
said last night ath they were delighted
with the result of the convention and
that they deeply appreciated the great
honor that had been conferred upon
the Wilson family.
Captain Wilson and his father are
both Princeton men. Captain Wilson
graduated from West Point in 1900. He
resigned from the Army in 1908, after
having served In the Philippines, Ha
waii and In various posts in the United
States. The Wilsons have one child, a
daughter, Elizabeth.
Other residents of Portland who feel
a personal interest Governor WilSon's
new honors are R. W. Raymond, for
merly with the publicity department
of the Commercial Club, and now rep
resentative for a powder manufactur
ing concern; W. A. Montgomery and
Mark W. Gill, of the J. K. Gill Com
pany. These men were students at
Wesleyan University, Middletown,
Conn., when Governor Wilson was a
professor there in the years from 1888
to 1890, prior to his going to Princeton.
All three men expressed their gratifi
cation over the result of the convention
at Baltimore, and while they are all
Republicans they signified their inten
tion of voting for their former in
structor in November.
"As & professor at Wesleyan, Dr.
Wilson was the most admired man In
the university," said Mr. Raymond last
night. "He never tried to stand In.
with the students, by affecting to be
interested In what did not appeal to
him. His attraction for the students
was his frank honesty. He had a pe
culiar power to make men think. A
student always stood higher with him.
who showed that he was thinking
about the lecture rather than the one
who. could repeat the jages of notes.
There was not a man in the institu
tion who deevloped the enthusiasm of
students aa Dr. Wilson did. He .did
not mingle with the students nearly as
much as many other professors did.
but he had their respect as no other
Instructor had it.
Mr. Montgomery said: "Wood row
Wilson has been my Ideal of an Ameri
can citizen ever since I left College.
As the chum of his brother-in-law. I
had the good fortune to meet him
often and to know him in an Informal
way. I regard- him as a high type of
citizen. I am delighted beyond meas
ure to hear of his nomination."
Mr. Gill said: "I am immensely
pleased at the good news. I am go
ing to vote - for Wilson. I couldn't
think of doing anything else."
Messrs. Raymond. Montgomery and
Gill sent the following telegram to Dr.
Wilson last night: "Your former stu
dents in old Wesleyan send greetings
and congratulations from Portland. Or.
It Is our pleasure and honor to pledge
our hearty support"

Washington Liquor Licenses Dae.
OLTMPIA. Wash., July 2. (Special.)
July 1 all state liquor licenses be
came delinquent under the new rule
promulgated by the State Tax Com
mission. The final lot of licenses, ag
gregating 450, were received by the
Commission today and turned Into the
State. Treasury. Most of these were
sent in by liquor dealers of Seattle.
The Commission has decided to grant
delinquents IS days' extension, and the
penalty will be kollected until after
that date. But upon the expiration of
tho extension of time allowed, all de

MEDAL URGED FOR POST

In Letter to Slover Head of Second
Right Relief Compliments Pa

"He didn't have any gunfight, but he

This Is the argument advanced by Po
lice Captain Keller, in a letter to the
Chief of Police, recommending that a
medal for bravery be awarded to Pa
trolman W. W. Post, who captured Dan
Brundridge Sunday morning, just af
ter the captive and two others had at

Brundridge had shot a young woman

It is pointed out that Brundridge and

together when Post first sighted tnem,
but they scattered and he caught only
the one. It was through this act. How
ever, that the other two 'were trailed,
and were captured soon afterward in
their room in the heart of the city.
"Three vears on -tho dull Montavilla

man if it was there," says Keller, "and
he could have let this chance pass him
with no one being the wiser. I think
Post Is entitled to as much credit, or
more, than If he had engaged In a bat

chance to make a gun-play."
These big, outlying beats are the
very places where we need good men
badly when we need them at all," said
Chief Slover. who indicated his inten
tion to support the recommendation of
his subordinate.
WILSON - MARSHALL WIN
(Continued From First Page.)
he learned that the Illinois delegation
at an early morning conference had de
cided to switch from Clark to Wilson.
This meant a change of 58 votes, and
was as fatal to Clark's chances as it
was inspiring to the Wilson forces.
As was expected, the vote of Illinois
marked the beginning of the end. West
Virginia joined hands with Illinois in
going over to Wilson on the 43d ballot,
the first fast today.
' - Day Began With Gain.
Wilson jumped from his final of 449
last night to 03 on the first ballot to
day. The rAoat important change on
the 44th ballot was in the Colorado
delegation, which had been voting 11
for Clark and one for Wilson. This
time Colorado divided, ten to two in
favor of Wilson. Altogether the ulti
mate nominee gained 27 votes on this
ballot. Then came the 45th. It was
disappointing in a way," for Clark held
his own and Wilson made a gain of
only four. "
The 46th ballot had been ordered
when Senator Bankhead. of Alabama,
was seen making his way to the stage.
Word flashed over the great armory
that his purpose was to withdraw Mr.
Underwood from the race and release
his delegates to vote for whom they
saw fit. Senator Bankhead uttered only
a few words when the meaning of his
remarks became clear and there were
frequent Interruptions of applause and
noisy demonstrations.
Missouri Deletratea Angered.
The only display of temper marking
the morning session came from the
Missouri delegates. They demanded to
know of Senator Bankhead why Mr.
Underwood had not withdrawn , when
Clark appeared to have a chance for
the nomination and accused the Un
derwood delegates of "faking." Senator
Bankhead paid no heed to the ques
tions burled at him. He said Mr. Un
derwood desired the success of his
party above everything else and would
not lend himself to any plan to pre
vent a nomination.
Senator Stone, of Missouri, who had
been in consultation with Speaker
Clark, climbed to the stage and re
leased. In the name of the Speaker, ail
of the delegates who had been pledged
to him.
Mayor Fitsgerald, of Boston, with
drew the name of Governor Foss, of
Massachusetts, from further considera
tion and said that the "old Bay State"
would fall in line for Woodrow Wilson.
Alabama Starta Stampede,
It was a foregone conclusion what
the result would be aa the last call
of the states began. Alabama which
had started every other call with 24
votes for Underwood, changed to Wil
son, and state after state followed suit.
It was just 3:15 P. M. when the solid
76 votes of Pennsylvania carried Wil
son over the winning line, making his
total at the time 733 votes.
The stamDOda did not end until 990

of the 1088 votes in the convention
had been cast for the nominee. Mis
souri, with her 36, had been joined on
the last ballot for Clark by 24 of Cali
fornia's 26 votes, by five delegates from
Florida, two from Louisiana, all six
from Nevada, four from New Jersey,
the home state of Governor Wilson;
six from the district of Columbia and
one from Ohio. This little handful
readily Joined In the chorus of accla
mation when Senator Stone moved that
the nomination be made unanimous.
There was an attempt at another
demonstration, but the delegates were
too tired to keep It up long.
Galleries Well Filled.
Despite the fact that the main busi
ness of the convention the nomination
of a Presidential candidatehad been
disposed of, floor and galleries were
filled last night for the nnai session
of the Democratic National convention.
The nomination of a Vice-Presidential
candidate and the adoption of the plat
form framed by the sub-committee of
the resolutions committee, of which w u
liarrr J. Bryan is chairman, were the
duties remaining to be performed by
the convention, which had been in ses
sion since last Tuesday. But a reso
lution framed by Bryan to allow the
candidate to name his own campaign
committee promised , trouble. The
delegates, tired of the dull routine of
four days of balloting tor a rresiaen
tial candidate, were on hand early, anx
ious to dispose of the work that re
mained. The choice of a Vice-Presidential
candidate was the first programme
confronting the convention.
The the convention met Vlce-Presl-dentlal
gossip was given an impetus
by the circulation of a report that
Champ Clark, defeated for the Presi
dential nomination, would be willing to
accept second place on the ticket.
The New Jersey delegates, enthus
iastic over the afternoon's victory,
cheered Wilson and Bryan Impartially
after they took their seats. They also
sang parodies on various popular songs
for both Wilson and Clark, Wilson but
tons were pinned on the lapels of the
Missouri delegation and there was a
general love feast between New Jersey
and Missouri.
Clark Boom Grows.
The "Clark for Vice-President" boom
grew stronger, despite a statement by
the Clark managers that he would not
accept the Vice-Presidency nomination.
Frederick J. Lynch, of Minnesota, who
was closely associated with the late
Governor Johnson, of Minnesota, was
also mentioned as a Vice-Presidential
possibility.
The names of Governor Marshall, of
Indiana, and Governor Burke, of North
Dakota, also were heard in this con
nection. William J. Bryan entered the hall
while political and . patriotic songs
were sun oeing sung ana iney we
Interrupted by the cheers that greeted
Bryan.
H. H. Dean, of Georgia, mounted the
platform to make the first nomination.
"We want to nominate a really great
man," he shouted.
From all over the hall came cries
of "Clark, Clark, Clark."
For several minutes Dean continued
amid shouts of "Name your man; who
is her' When he finally placed Clark
in nomination, a yell sounded through
tho hall.
Meantime the leaders were exerting
every effort to reach Clark on the tele
phone. Dockery Declines for Clark
As Dean concluded, ex-Governor A.'
M. (Dockery. of Missouri, hurried to the
platform to decline the nomination for
Clark.
"Tho Hon. Champ Clark has decided
he cannot accept the office of Vice
President," said Dockery.
"Champ Clark did not reach this
conclusion out of pique," continued
Dockery. "He Is as loyal to the Demo
cratic party and to its nominee. Wood
row Wilson, as he ever was. Speaker
Clark simply prefers to remain in his
present place, or to remain a simple
member or tne iouse oi iteprBsenia,
tives." As Dockery concluded Idaho yielded
to North Dakota, and ex-Senator Pur
cell placed ex-Governor Black, of North
Dakota. In nomination.
Mr. Purcell, characterized Governor
Burke as a "progressive of progres
sives." He asserted that Governor
Burke would draw many progressive
Republican votes to the Democratic
ticket. Idaho seconded the nomination
of Burke. Samuel Alschuler, of Illi
nois, nominated Elmer W. Hurst, of
Rock Island, 111.
Speeches Are Limited.
A motion to limit nominating speeches
to five minutes and seconding speeches
to three minutes went through by ac
clamation. G. F. Menxies, of Indiana, nominated
Governor Thomas R. Marshall for the
Vice-Presidency.
Henry Volmer, of Iowa, nominated
Martin J. Wade.
Mr. Wada said he did not desire the
place himself. He seconded the nomi
nation of Governor Burke.
Kansas seconded the nomination of
Burke, and Louisiana seconded that of
Governor Marshall.
Alonzo L. Miles, of Maryland, placed
Mayor James Preston, of Baltimore, in
nomination. A Mitchell Palmer, Wil
son's manager, asked unanimous cou-
tKA onnalderation of the
