c ;eorge TV. Tannahill. of Lewiston. made
aworn tatnent withdrawing from
the ticket, ana -now be follows that up
with a request to withdraw his with
drawal, reaffirms his acceptance and
asks to have his name properly ertl-
to by Secretary tf State OiTTorfl,
. .. so that he can go before the electors
as a candidate for that high office. Bat
the Secretary of State yesterday ce-rtl-'
- "fied the list of state candidates to the
respective, County Recorders, and the
'.' name of only William E. Borah ap
, pears under the beading of candidate
V.'jfor the United States Senate.
.n5 Mr. Tannahill has the Attorney-Gen-CTal's
department working Over time
"'"endeavoring to place a proper construc
: "tlon on his actions, and the Secretary
":"ls threatened with a suit nt matter
"s whether ba oertlfles Taonahlll's it
or not.
-- T Attorney-General McDougall. who has
" -"been asked for advice by the Secretary
"-"of State, declares he probably will rule
--rthat the Secretary of State will have
- to reach his own decision about what
taction to take, as there are no specific
-'provisions of the statute governing
TannahilTa action.
The sudden and surprising change of
heart of Tannahill was experienced at
' Portland this week -while Mr. Tannahill
was enjoying the festivities of the
" -"Best People on Earth" the Elks.
-- From Portland he telegraphed to the
r Secretary of State that he wished to
: nullify his withdrawal as a candidate
and had decided to remain In the race.
Letter Explains Action.
A letter received today from him ex
plains that on him arrival in Portland
he conferred with many prominent men
of the party, who insisted upon his re
maining in the race, and he had yielded
to the pressure.
I- ;Many Democrats declare that a prln---.clple
aad been sacrificed through the
. "1 withdrawal of Tannahill. In that they
stood for ah expression by the people,
and believed the party's candidate for
"" United States Senator should be the
candidate) who received the largest
number of votes at the primaries.
" - They are opposed to the programme
- of the Hawley people, who controlled
".' "the recent state convention and killed
, a plank advocating tfcla principle ' for
' no other reason, declare many party
leaders, than to prevent Tannahill from
-' securing the party's indorsement, there
by leaving the Senatorial gate wide
.ropen lor Governor Hawlsy, so that he
"""" could become a candidate) for re-eleo
tlon for Governor, and if the Leglsla-
ture becomes Democratic, also be the
successful aspirant for United States
v. Senator.
durations Are Important.
The questions that confront the legal
v department of the state with reference
,jlo Tansahill'a recent decision to remain
jj!fn the race are many. Can a candidate
who has been properly nominated and
JT filed an acceptance within the time
-sp resort bed by law. withdraw? If ho
does withdraw and ton nays later
wishes still to remain la the race, can
he have his withdrawal nullified? Is
he entitled to reconsider a resignation?
Shall the Secretary of State, in face ot
'h fat. innlripr onlv that th can-
I' didate has been legally nominated and
:..legallr accepts, and regardless of tne
act he withdraws and decides to re-
-!maJn a candidate, consider be is still a
-candidate? The Attorney-General be-

". tions. -
Unless Secretary Gifford certifies Mr.
Tannahill- same as a candidate for
United States Senator, he. probably will
' be made the defendant In an action
before the Supreme Court on an ap-
- - plication for a writ of mandate to com-
pel him to act. If he does he may be
made a defendant in a suit to compel
him to keep TannahiU's name off the
ticket, on the grounds he had aban-
i :doned all right to have tt placed were.
- The question is looked upon as one of
the most interesting and complicated
law since its adoption in this state.

GLADSTONE PARK. July 12. (Spe
cial.) Though the Elks' big parade
slightly Interfered with yesterday's at
tendance at the Chautauqua, a larger
crowd than ever assembled to hear the
famous Chicago Operatic Company in
its first of a series of four concerts this
afternoon. The work of the company
exceeded the anticipation of the 2500
Chautauqua lovers who have awaited
their appearance since the 19th session
began. Tuesday. Grand opera scenes
in costume, sung by a company of well
known American artists. Is a novel
scheme for Chautauqua assemblies, but
their high-class rendition of solos,
duets and quartets from world-famous
operas, with lighter encores, met with
popular favor and a still larger attend
ance witnessed the evening entertain
ment. Arthur Middleton, generally recog
nised as the leading basso In the ora
torio, concerto and grand opera work
throughout the country: John B. Miller,
one of America's leading tenors; Rose
Lutlger Gannon, contralto; Leonora
Antoinette Allen, soprano, and Edgar
A. Nelson, pianist, comprise the all
star company. The quartet feature of
the work alone would be a great draw
ing card, but even better were the eolo
numbers. Arthur Middleton, not un
known in Oregon, was at his best in
the famous ."Toreador" song. He gave
as an encore "Mother o" Mine." The
tower scene from "II Trovatore"
brought out effectively the voices of
Miss Allen and Mr. Miller, and the lat
ter's "I'll Sing Thee Songs of Araby"
and . "The Bohemian Girl" selection
more than did Justice to his voice. Mrs.
Gordon and Miss - Allen maintain the
high, standard.
Agriculture Is Interesting.
"Back to the Farm" was the theme
that attracted several hundred to the
forum hour this morning. The grow
ing Interest in agricultural work, as
taught In the public schools and- which
Is at present interesting about 60,000
Oregon school children in competitive
work, was discussed.
"Marv Arden" is the nar-e of the

after the mother ot Shakespeare, and
today was the scene of a delightful lit.

AFTER LONG
SUFFERING
These Two Women's Health
Restored by Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Com
pound Read Their
Own Statements.
Cheneyville, La. "Some time ego
when in poor health, suffering from fem
inine ills, l began to
take Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable
Compound and Liver
Pills. I soon felt
better and gained in
strength and flesh.
A gradual Improve
ment continued as I
took the Compound,
and from 120 pounds
I now weigh 155, and
feel that my life has
been prolonged.
"I deeply regret that I did not know
of your medicine long before I did.
Friends often speak of the wonderful
change in my health, and I tell them that
your medicine did it "Mrs. J.W. STAN
LEY, Cheneyville, La.
Distressing Case of Sirs. 31. Gary.
Chicago, I1L "I have used Lydia E.
Pink ham's Vegetable Compound for
backache and it has certainly made anew
woman of me. After my first baby was
born I was left a perfect wreck. I was
so weak I could hardly do my household
duties and suffered with an awful back
ache. But since I have used your Com
pound the pains in my back have left me
and I cm strong again.
"My mother used it also through
Change of Life and speaks very highly
of it. You can use this letter any way
yon wish. I think it is only fair for one
who has suffered as. niuchr as I, to let
others know of your great remedy."
