gressive policies.
' Plana Made for Confemce.
! Steps were taken late today by some
of the men named to call a conference
1 of Progressive Republicans to de-
termine upon a plan of action. All of
the Representatives who wtll be asked
" to attend have already been invited to
join the distinct Progressive organlza

should be any diviaion among Progres
sive, in the House at ttjis time." said
" Representative Lenroot, in a state-
ment concurred in by Representative
Anderson. "It may be good personal
' politics for third party Progressives
anfl for some men who were elected as
Republican Progressives to take such
position at this time, but there is no
statesmanship about It.

A far as can now be foreseen, pro
gressive of all political parties will ,
be called upon to assist ana cu-uiibw
. with President Wilson in progressive
policies and new complications relat

injure the progressive cause."
"1 can see no good to be accomplished
at this time by a third party lineup in
the House of Representatives." said
'.Representative Kent. "President Wtl-
aon has brought assurance of hla Intent
to realize, as fir as may be. those pro
gressive Ideals which are held by all
open-minded and forward-looking men.
.To my mind our best services can be
rendered by aiding him and those with
ihlm toward securing the legislation
which we desire and for which we have
'worked in the past."

Says Superintendent.

home' decorations. Every boy should
have the responsibility of caring for an
animal. He should own the animal.

Corvallis, March 26. (Special.) One of
Cupids secrets Decame college xiw
today, when it was learned that Henry
w Pnin.rllnn of Lincoln. Neb., and
Miss Bertha Pennlnger, or jieaiora,
two members of the class of 1916, were
h nrineinnls to a Hood Friday wed
ding, solemnized at the Presbyterian
Church by the pastor, Dr. j. n. a. pen.
The marriage is the result of a short
but ardently-pressed college "case,"
not even the closest friends of the bride
and bridegroom being apprised of their
intentions to dispense with one set of
textbooks. This is the third college
romance which has been brought to a
similar culmination during the present
school year and the second affecting
only members of the freshmen class.
CHURCHILL'S FRIENDS BUSY

Mention for State Position.
BAKER, Or., March 26. (Special.)

my friends are urging me to become
the candidate for office of State Su
perintendent of Schools," said Professor
J. A. Churchill tonight when informed
that he is mentioned as a possible suc
cessor to Superintendent Alderman in
case that official is made the head of
the Portland schools.

name being mentioned, as the position
is one that would be an honor for any
one to fill, but I have nothing to say
now," .he concluded.
Mr. Churchill- has been superintend
ent of the Baker school for many years

OIL YIELD JS PREDICTED
Expert Says Aberdeen Is Second Best
. Possible Coast District.
ABERDEEN, Wash., March 26. (Spe
cial.) That Aberdeen and Its imme
diate vicinity is the second best pos
sible oil section on the Pacific Coast
was the declaration made here yester
day by John Harryman, an oil expert,
who says he has something more than
his own word behind his statement.
It la thought that Harryman may
be one of the group rumored to be pre
paring to bore for oil not far from
this city. Nothing authentic can be
learned, as Harryman, who is recog
nized as an authority by other oil men
here, refuses to talk about his busi-
at a cost not to exceed five cents per
acre per annum. Owners of big timber
tracts along the Catherine Creek water
shed are preparing to comply with the
law.
