His trip south was made neces sary by legal matters in Douglas Coun ty, of which he has been District At torney for 18 years. R. A. Booth, who returned late last week from & trip through Clatsop and Columbia counties, found conditions there very favorable to his candidacy for United States Senator on the R publican ticket. In Astoria Mr. Booth was the guest at a luncheon of a num ber of business men. He afterwards made a tour of the city, coming in per sonal contact with hundreds of voters. At Clatskanie he was met by a dele gation headed by the town band, and found that a meeting had been called J" anticipation of his coming. He spoke to upwards of 200 voters at this meet ing, a large part of his audience being composed of lumber camp employes who came in on a special logging train to hear him Rainier gave Mr. Booth a hearty re ception. He met many voters person ally, receiving encouragement on all sides. At St. Helens he found almost unanimity of sentiment in his favor, due partly to the enthusiastic support of S. R. Sonneland, who is connected with a lumber concern ther. Mr. Booth learned that Mr. SonnelaTid had been working untiringly for him since he announced his candidacy for United States Senator. thing else and Al Jolson to let the plot go hang. After reading the whole programme and taking due notice of who fur nished the wigs, costumes, shoes, hats, properties, electrical fixtures, scenery, locomotive and automobile effect, mu sic, book and lyrlhs, one is forced to confess that the show in general is by Al Jolson. . Jolson Comic Comedian He Is a juvenile edition of Mclntyre and Heath rolled in one and made into a 1914 model. He .is a comedian who knows' his comedy and where to apply It. His deviltry is delectable. He plays the role of a butler in the cast, but that is mostly where he plays it, for he steps down to the footlights often and anon to warble. Right here is where I should write "all his songs are new," but that can't be done. Not with a "Winter Garden show. Vaudevillians and orchestras have brought us a few of Jolson's best, but he gave them to us last night with the original blown-in-the-bottie signature on them. "In Mandalay" I heard for the first time after having heard at it a dozen times. "While They Were Waltzing Around" was done with a fine and careless slap dash that set everybody's toes tingling and "This Is the Life" was called for by the audience just like Chauncy Olcott's followers howl for "My Wild Iriph Rose." They spoke Tisht out and asked Al to sing it and he did. Also he sang "The Rosary," which should not be held against him, although he thought the audience was kidding him when a call came from out the gallery for him to sing It Voice 1. Masnetlc And how he did sing it! Whatever his voice is, it snuggles close to your dense of harmony and just hums its way into your heart. And he dances, occasionally, and stops to tell a story or so. His vocal characterizations are the sort you can hear this year and laugh your head off. and hear next year and down dale in and out of tunnels and draw up side by side right in front of our noses, into a great life siz. throbbing puffing engine, and an hon est to goodness automobile. It is th. scenic thrill of a lifetime of musical showB. Truly its a great show. And then there's Al Jolson too. "The Honeymoon Express" will steam into the Heilig every night this week, and for a matinee on Wednesday. Fri day and Saturday. Tonight the Rotary Club will have a special car. Oregon Political Gossip THE late Rufus Mallory. who died last Thursday at the age of 82, was all his life a staunch Repub lican. For a great many years he took an active part in Republican party conn cils in this state; up to the time of his death, he retained his keen Interest in affairs political, and in the success of the Republican party, which he be lieved firmly would be victorious in Oregon this year. Just a month to a day before he died, Mr. Mallory explained his views as to the necessity for a strong party organization to C. R. Meloney. secre tary, and E. L. Amidon, member of the executive committee of the Lincoln Re publican Club, who had called on him at his office. "I want to live to see the Repub lico.n party back in power in Oregon said Mr. Mallory. "I believe that It will get back in power this year, for I think this is a Republican year. Th Lincoln Republican Club is working along the right lines in its efforts to get members of the party together and restore harmony. Harmony and or ganlzation are what we need most. am always glad to help in anything for the good of the Republican party, and I will help now."

The production Is a tense modern drama, telling of the clash of wills be tween a strong man and a haugnty woman, the climax of which hangs 1 the balance until the man, in righteous Indignation, exerts his full physical strength towards the subjugation of the woman.

Marie Robson Real Kovelty. Marie Robson, who plays the French speakings generally speaking heroine, is a sort of "picked out" type, and shows it.

Another Marie, last name Kenton, of buxom charms, had a cheer up song or so and Anna Wheat with a personality that Bhe lets run riot on the stage, are a few of the electric lighted names picked out of a cast as lenRthy as our list of would-be Gov ernors. As for the chorus costumes there is absolutely nothing more left to be done in the name of surprises. Fate has never handed out any optical punch equal to a pretty woman gorgeously arrayed. The Honeymoon Express" girls have airs as grand as their rai ment. And they dance with expression, on their faces and in their feet, which is unusual. Also there are so many of them I lost count. There's some chorus boys, too neat and pretty and precious fc-ood dancers. Two llic Scene Staged. The two big scenes are of tremendous beauty, all sort of "gotten up" in Btained-irlass-wlndow overpowering color effects.

And the great big punch of the. performance is in its mid- 'We used to have some hot fights in the party in the old days," Mr. Mallory went on reminiscently. "They caused a lot of bitterness and eventually led to Republican defeat. Probably there is no man in Oregon who has carried more bitterness in his heart as a result of some of these party quarrels than I have. But the time for all that is passed. What we need now is for every Republican to forget the old dif ferences and animosities and put his Bhoulder to the wheel for the party's interests. I ought to forgive my old political enemies, and I'm going to do it." Resolutions of respect to the mem ory of Mr. Mallory, drawn up by Judge M. C. George, a friend of many years and fellow member of the club's ad visory committee, have been adopted by the cliib. The resolutions read: Resolved, by the Lincoln Republican Club, an expression of feeling- ou learning- of the death of Honorable Rufus Mallory, an honorel member of the advisory committee of the club, that while we mourn in com mon with the people of our state our loss, we realize that he had reached well-rounded life and left a record as a citizen, a Jurist, a statesman, and a man of whom we shall ever be rroud. Rufus Mallory was great in many points: as a lawyer he ranked in the front; as a politician and a forensic speaker, he had few equals: as a Republican, for years he stood in the lead m the oounael of bis party. Rufuet Mallory was a man of unimpeach able Integrity of character and of positive convictions.
