AVork Will Be for Roosevelt Exclu
sively He May Be Tendered
Reception When Here.
Disclaiming any dissatisfaction with
the "Bull Moose" organization, of which
Dan Kellaher, U M. Lepper, Dr. H. W.
Coe and others are leading spirits, a
number of Roosevelt admirers are soon
to organize under the name of the
Young Men's Roosevelt Club."
A meeting is to be called witnin a
week, probably In the "jinks" room of
the Portland Press Club, if that can be
ecured for the occasion. The organ
ization will be perfected, at any rate.
Prominent among those who are ac
tively engaged in pushing the organi
zation of the Young Men's Roosevelt
Club are George K. McCord, secretary
to Mayor Rushlight: Lute Pease, Ray
Apperson and W. C. Benbow, ex-Deputy
City Attorney and former candidate for
a Circuit Judgeship on the Republican
ticket.
"We are going to organize this club
because we believe that Mr. Roosevelt
is the man who should be elected," said
Mr. McCord, "but we are not antag
onising any other organization In so
doing. We simply believe tha,t a club
of enthusiastic young men can do a
whole lot of telling work for the ex
President and we intend to see to it
that nothing Is left undone to effect
his election.
"A number of us have been dis
cussing this subject for several days
and we have gone so far that we are
certain of organizing. We will call a
meeting within one week. We are
negotiating for the "Jinks' room of the
Press Club fo, use at the time. We
have had numerous applications for
membership and it looks as though the
club will be a big one. We Intend to
devote our energies to the success of
Colonel Roosevelt exclusively, taking
no part in any other political work.
We regard the election of the Colonel
as the most Important thing and shall
therefore center our efforts on him.
While the "Bull Moose" organization,
which has been doing all of the Roose
velt shouting thus far, has outlined a
programme for the visit of Colonel
Roosevelt when he Is here next month,
it is the avowed intention of the forth
coming new organization' of young
men to tender him a reception them
selves. Just how this will fit In with
the other orgflaniiation is not known.
Meanwhile the "Bull Moosers" are
busy preparing their petitions for cir
culation, as it is necessary for them to
file with the Secretary of State 5 per
cent of the electoral vote of Oregon,
or approximately 7800 names, before
they can obtain recognition under the
law as a party.
George Arthur Brown, chosen Tues
day night as chairman of the state
central committee of the Roosevelt or
ganization, said yesterday that he is
determined to be fair to all factions.
He denied lhat his selection is a vic
tory for Dr. Coe or any one else in
particular.
"I will serve no man or set of men
as against another," said Mr. Brown.
"I will give everyone a square deal
while I remain as chairman and shall
adhere to this policy most rigidly."

called for Boistfort for next Saturday.
Prominent Progressive workers in the
state and county will be present to ad-,

The Red Lane
By Holman Day
Author of
'King Spruce," "The Ramrod
ders," etc.
Love, daring and romantic adven
ture all figure in this thrilling tale
of the Canadian border. The story
opens in a roadhouse run by a man
whose convent-bred daughter is the
heroine of the story. Her igno
rance of her father's business, her
sudden appearance at his place in
the midst of a law-breaking ca
rousal and the unexpected declara
tion of love from her Yankee lover,
begins a novel of more than usual
heart interest.. The scenes are dra
matic, the setting picturesque and
the theme is of striking force, giv
ing this author of humor and phil
osophy new opportunity for pic
tures of virile life. Quite natur
ally it has become one of the sea
son's most popular books, for it is
a capital story characteristically
well told. . .
