4 WILSON GOES OVER PLAN OF CAMPAIGN States Rated as Underwood Sees Them, With New Jersey as "Debatable." HOPE OF OHIO IS HELD Pennsylvania Placed In Class by It self Candidate Believes He 1Y11I Carry Maine and Con necticut as Well. SETGIRT. N. J, July 17- The politi cal battle ground of the campaign of 1912, where the Democratic party will etraln Its sinews for every vote, was placed before Dr. Wilson like a checker board yesterday by the man he re gards as better informed than any oth er on the conditions throughout the country Oscar Underwood, leader of the Democratic majority of the House of Representatives. . State by state, the nominee and the House leader went over the map. When the conference ended they had taken from the debatable states, V is consln, Missouri, Maryland, Kentucky and New York, with a reservation that there would have to be some campaign ing done in Missouri and that while New Tork was pretty certain to go Democratic the Democrats there would have to be on their guard and not feel too cocksure, and made a list of the states where they will have to flght for votes with a good chance of -carrying them. w Jersey Held Debatable. In this list they placed flrst the great Middle Western states of Illinois, Ohio and Indiana; from the New kjag land group they put down Maine and Connecticut Along the Mason and Dixon border they made note of West Virginia. In a class by Itself, they placed Pennsylvania, and last of all they lotted down mew jersey as ae ratable, although the New Jersey leaders close to the Governor have promised the state to him by pluralities ranging from 60,000 to 100,000 votes. These states the Governor referred to tonight as "debatable," but Indications are that he believes he can carry every one. Mr. Underwood told the Governor that before coming to Trenton he had consulted with Congressmen In these states, and could therefore speak with a fair working knowledge of condi tions. I ndrrnood Is Helpful. "We went over the situation in the "-debatable states. Governor ilson said today, "concerning which was the best campaigning ground in the rountrv. With Mr. Lnderwoods very unusual knowledge of conditions through his colleagues In Congress, 1 have gotten a great deal out of the sit uation that was very valuable to me." Maine, the first state discussed, is regarded as having strong Inclinations to remain Democratic Underwood's report places it high in the list of states to be won with a fair amount of campaigning. Indiana Is counted upon to support the ticket loyally, not alone because its "favcrite son" Is Wil son's runnnlng mate, fcut because of lo cal conditions, the divided Republican vote and a strong trend towards De mocracy since the last Presidential rampaign. In Ohio, Governor Wilson ' Relieves, the third party will divide the tepubll can vote so that the Democrats will have more than an even chance of tarrying the state. In fact, it Is under stood that the third party movement was reckoned with more heavily there than In most of the other states, Pen nsylvania excepted, that are regarded by" the nominee as debatable. Were the Republicans united, the outlook would still look good, he believes, notwith standing the fact that it Is President Tart's home state. Prnnajlraala la Classed Aloae. Pennsylvania is placed In a class by Itself, because from all over the stale there have come to Seagirt and to Washington, declarations from Republi cans that will vote for Wilson and be cause of the unusually rosy hue of the reports of the party leaders there. Although It has been reckoned as a rock-ribbed Republican state for dec ades. Governor Wilson said today that he regarded it aa "decidedly debatable ground." The views of Governor Fobs, of Massachusetts, regarding Connecticut, supplemented by reports to Mr. Under wood, letters from Wilson leaders and other Democrats In the state are re flected In the attitude of the nominee towards Connecticut. Mr. Underwood told him that there was an excellent chance of carrying the state. Massa chusetts for some reason, was not mentioned, but this Is not regarded as significant, as the list Is by no means complete and there are yet many states to be taken up. West Virginia Debatable. "West Virginia, of course. Is debata ble ground." This from Wilson sums up the nominee's attitude towards that commonwealth. , Missouri, It developed today, was discussed in detail by the Governor and Speaker Clark when the latter was here last Saturday. At that time the Speaker is said to have toT Gov ernor Wilson that some work would have to be done there, but that there was no reason why the state should not support the ticket. Coming down to New York, the Gov ernor feels confident of the result there next November. This feeling, he said, was strengthened by a talk with Lieutenant-Governor Conway at Trenton today. "He said that the feeling In the state was strong for me." the Governor said today. In discussing the Interview. "That was the principal theme. He Is particularly familiar with the condi tions up-state and said they were very favorable indeed." The Governor added that Mr. Conway told him he thought the third party vote in New York would not "make much impression." Colonel Roosevelt's following in New Jersey Is reckoned with In placing the Governor's own state among those to be debated for with the Republicans and the third party. There Is reason to believe that few real fears are en tertained of the result here. FATHER ADVISES SUICIDE Confession of Slayer of 1 2-Tear-Old Girl Related to Grand Jury. NEW TORK. July 17.

REBEL ACTRESS THROWS ROSE TO KING GEORGE Miss Countiss at Heilig Also Coaxed Smile and Lifted Hat From Ruler; Her Husband Also Had Royal "Affair" with Queen's Relatives. 0B sunny .arwrnoon a yc o Cathrine Countiss. now making a hit at the Heilig Theater, stood in line with some thousanas or xourii and loyal Britons near i-iccaamy, awaiting the approach of the new King George and his royal spouse. The occasion was the visit of royalty to a great charity hospital in the slums of the Whltechapel quarter of i-onaon. For miles along city thoroughfares to be traversed great crowds had assem bled. Miss Countiss is a Texan, an unre constructed rebel at heart, but In tensely American. She had said that she had not the slightest desire to gaxe upon royalty- but finally yieiaea 10 persuasion. In due time, seated In an open car riage, preceded and followed by a small military escort, the royal pair made their appearance. Chance had given Miss Countiss a position within three feet of them as they passed. It was a psychological moment. Kins Lifts Hat. Kins George and Miss Countiss looked each other squarely In the eyes. His Majesty smiled gravely, and lifted his hat. Miss Countiss smiled cordially. and impulsively tossed him a rose. His Majesty caught it witn tne easy precision of a star center neiaer cap turing a long ny. incidentally, aiiss Countiss might Just as easily have tossed him a dynamite bomu, out sne didn't. 'A great wave of sympatny swept over me, says aiiss countiss.

"The last time I met the pres ent Queen of England," he says remln iscently, "was when I was managing Richard Mansfield at Sir Henry Irvlng's London Theater, ths Lyceum. In 1886.

RED FLAG IS DEBATED MI1VERS CHEER REFERENCE TO "INTERXATIOXAIi" EMBLEM. Convention Hall Goes Undecorated. Moyer Decries Industrial Work ers as Labor's Foes. CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo., July 17. The second day's session of the West ern Federation of Miners, in annual convention at Victor, was featured by the annual adoress of Charles H. Moyer, the president, and by a lively debate over the use of the red flag to decorate the hall in which the dele gates are meeting. Yesterday the question came up as to what flag should be used to decor ate the hall.. In the argument that ensued, an Englishman and American exchanged strong words. Delegate Corcoran, of Leadville, Colo., moved that the "International" flag adorn the walls. A delegate asked Corcoran what he meant by the "international" "The red flag," shouted Corcoran, and he was loudly cheered. But when a poll was taken It was decided by a vote of 32 to 28 that the walls should remain flagless. In his address at the morning ses sion President Moyer censured ex State Senator Fllnn and William Ran dolph Hearst as mineowners, who, he Batd. were oppressing the laborer by reducing wages.

If the law gives the commission power to fix the rate and determine the service, and the rate and service ordered are prima facie lawful, what need is there of ''competition" in Portland in the light and power field? How can the commission fix a lower rate if the investment is duplicated by another company enter ing the field and increasing the interest charge, which of necessity must b 3 paid out of the money received from the general public for electric light and power service?
