of tbe National Education Association
today. -
Mr. Fairchlld's election was attended
by what the members said was the;
bitterest contest In the history of the
association. Supporters of Missi
Strachan. of New York, charged that
the election was controlled by the Chi
cago teachers "through secret cau
cuses and Influences of trickery."
The supporters of Fairchild won the
day In the nominations committee. The
vote In the committee ' stood: E. T.
Fairchild, SS; Miss Grace Strachan, 7;
Stratton D. Brooks, president of the
University of Oklahoma, 4. The sup
porters of Miss Strachan blamed Mrs.

East Re sews Fight on Floor.
When the report was presented to
the . association. Miss Straehan's name
was presented by Eastern members as
a substitute for the nominating com
mittee's report.
Mathilda Coffin Ford, educational
expert In the department of finance of
New York City, charged that Mr. Fair
child's name was selected by a caucus
held behind closed doors, from which
the Eastern delegates had been ex
cluded. Cries for Miss Strachan brought her
to the platform to explain her posi
tion. She deprecated the idea that the
members should be divided Into so
called "progressives" and the "old
guard," saying all teachers were pro
gressive. Thfimu Rtrlrnelf Trnvtdenre R
then argued the motion to elect Fair-
child, declaring he represented the pro
gressive element.

ELKS TREAT PUBLIC
Orange Belt Products Distrib

HEADQUARTERS : ARE OPEN
Oranges, Lemons, Walnuts and Wine
Shipped Here -With Descriptive
Literature to Advertise Re
sources of Rich Districts
Sometimes, when a sign appears out
side the door of a shop "Nothing to
Sell," people Immediately begin to
grow suspicious. There was nothing
of that sort' In connection with the
sign hung up at the entrance of the
shop on Fifth street hired : for the
week by the delegates from the Call
fornla orange belt.
Tbe stream of people, steady all the
day long, entering the shop empty'
banded and coming out with pockets
bulging and mouths . munching some
delicacy or other, grown in the para
dise down ' south, why, that was suf
ficient to tell the world at large that
here was no fake sale or advertise
ment It' was merely a body of gener
ous-hearted men. who were proud of
their state and who wanted everybody
else to taste the good things which It
was their good ' fortune to enjoy at
home.
Enormous 'yellow oranges, luscious,
juicy and sweet and fresh from the
trees were 'there in -carloads, one and
more for everybody who could take the
trouble to walk into the shop. Lemons
that looked like pumpkins and sour
enough to appeal to an Olympic games
competitor at the end of a tiring race,
walnuts by the ton and wine by the
wagon loan, all were there and all were
free for the asking. Rather, one should
say, that as far as could be seen, no
one got a chance to ask.
The minute anyone was Inside the
store, or even on the threshold he was
seized by an Orange Belter. Even when
one had had enough, it was not suffi
cient for the hosts. No. Each and
every guest had to go out laden with
the fruit of the south. And then they
had the audacity to remark, "Now, don't
forget us." As if it were possible.
There were 250 Callfornlans with
their wives and their daughters, their
sisters and their sweethearts, all as de
licious as the fruit. They came from
Pasadena, from Riverside and from
Whittler, Santa Ana and Pomona, Red
mond and San Bernardino and all they
ask Is, "Come and see us when you're
down our way." - -
Perjury on Both Sides Admitted and
Mr. Jones Is Inclined to Think .
Lee O'Nell Browne Hand
led Whisky Fund.
WASHINGTON. July 10. When the
Senate took ud the Lorimer case today
it was indicated that a vote would be
reached tomorrow.
Senator Johnson, the first speaker,
condemned as "un-Christlan and un
American" ' Colonel Roosevelt's course
fin declining to sit with Senator Lori
mer at the Hamilton Club s ainner ai
C!hlaeo
, Senator Jones, of Washington, who
opposed Lorimer at the first trial, but
who supports him now. said he had
changed his conviction because he had
personally heard the witnesses against
Lorimer. He complained . of public
clamor in the case, and charged It was
having too mucn iniiueiii.j m ucic
mlnlng the votes of Senators.
This statement aroused William
AMen Smith, of Michigan. who con-
f.-A tn irritation as to what he
characterized as covert and insinuating
intimations in the press In support of
Mr. Lorimer that those in opposition
are lacking honesty and courage and
are subject to influence by public
clamor.
Public Sentiment Affected.
Senator Jones denied any Intention
f oHtirlslnor the attitude of others,
but asserted there had been too much
effort to control public sentiment in
opposition to Lorimer. He admitted
there also had been perjury on both
sides. .
The two Senators discussed the evl
itMip. jit some lenarth. and Mr. Smith
finally referred to the recent lawsuit
brought in Chicago by John Henning
against Clarence Funk, general, man
ager of the International Harvester
Company, in which Henning charged
Funk with alienation of his wife's af
fections. .
Henning lost his case and his wife
is said to have confessed that the
charge was a conspiracy to injure
Funk for his testimony es&inoi. tw
iner. Senator Smith said he thought
the suit had been brought to affect
the Lorimer case. .
Jones Suspects Wntsky Interests,
References to perjury brought out a
vigorous statement from Senator Jones.
He expressed the opinion that the
money distributed by Lee O Nell
Browne had been contributed by whis
ky interests." ' '
"There is no positive evidence, but
from the record it is the most prob
able theory as to where the money
came from." he said.
"Isn't It Just as reasonable to sup
pose that the corruption fund was used
to elect Lorimer as to influence legis
lation?" Senator Pomerene asked.
"I do not think so." replied Mr. Jones.
"It was a legislative fund and there is
nothing in the record to indicate that
the money was used for any other pur
pose." MAYOR ANDW0MAN CLASH
Salem 'Suffragist Takes Issue on
Votes-for-Women" Flag. '
SALEM, Or., July 10. (Special.)
Mrs. Olive England Enrlght, one of
the leading exponents of woman's suf
frage here, and Mayor Lachinund
clashed today over the question of
raising a banner carrying "Votes for
Women" on it to float during the Sa
lem Cherry Fair.
Mayor Lachmund was Insistent that
the banner should not be raised, while
Mrs. Enrlght wa Just as insistent that
it should fly for the benefit of the
Cherry Fair crowds here. .
Mrs. Enrlght declared to the Mayor
that In event he did not allow the ban
ner to fly for the women, she
would insist on a welcome sign, to the
Elks, which is flying across the street
from the Elks' clubhouse, should come
dMayoV Lachmtind left for Portland
before the battle between the two had
waged Itself out and it Is probable that
Mrs. Enrlght will put up -the sign. and
as tbe Mayor will be in PorUand there
will be no one to erfere w th it.
,n the victory seems tacitly to lay
with the suffragists.
