WELLS - IS COMMITTEEMAN "Loclvwoodism" in General and So Called Club Eliminated in Vot ing by Two Hundred Members at Enthusiastic Meeting. George J. Cameron was elected per manent chairman ot the Republican County Central Committee at an en thusiastic meeting ot the committee In the Central Library Monday night. Nearly 200 committeemen attended. The choice of Mr. Cameron was by vote of 99 to 69 for his opponent, O. A. Neal, temporary chairman of the com mittee. William Cake, also nominated lor permanent chairman, declined to run. He explained that it would be impossible for him to serve. After the result of the vote had been announced, Mr. Neal pledged to Mr. Cameron his warmest and most loyal support for the Republican ticket in the coming campaign. As chairman of the County Central Committee, Mr. Cameron will have charge of the Republican campaign in this county. One of the best known Iiepublicans In Portland, he has had wide experience in politics. Mr. Cam eron served three terms as Municipal Judge of Portland and one term as iMstrict Attorney. A mi don Election Decisive. By a vote as decisive as that for Mr. Cameron, K. I Amidon was elected permanent secretary of the county cen tral committee. On the first balloCMr. Amidon received 66 votes to 39 for L. D. Mahone, 31 for David N. Mosessohn, who was serving as temporary secre tary, and 28 for Stanley Pier. With 84 votes necessary for a choice, another ballot was necessary. When Mr. Pier jumped up and. an nounced that he wished to withdraw on the next ballot in favor of Mr. Ami don he started a stampede. Mr. Moses Eohn followed with a similar announce ment. This left the contest between Mr. Amidon and Mr. Mahone. Someone moved that a rising vote be taken and Amidon was swept in with a whoop by 111 votes to 43 for Mahone, a clear majority of 68. Mr. Amidon, as a member of the ix- ecutive committee of the Lincoln Re publican Club, was a tireless worker in the recent primary campaign. The club did much to bring out the large Republican vote polled, holding rallies through the city open to all Republi can candidates and personally bring ing many Republicans to the Court house to register. Harvey Wells was re-elected State Central committeeman from Multnomah County over Kranklin Korell. - Mr. AVella is the present treasurer of the btate Republican Central Committee.

Robinson and Oppen heimer held a directors' meeting and passed a resolution voting Robinson $17,600 for overtime and extra services during a period of 16 months, was fur- their testimony adduced. The Governments opening statement to the jury was that it would prove that on July 7, 1913, Mrs. Robinson ap peared at the Dexter-Horton National Bank in Seattle with $17,000 in cur rency; that she purchased a draft on the Bank of British North America, of Vancouver, B. C, thus putting the money beyond the .yeach of the trustee In bankruptcy; that at this bank the account was again changed and drafts purchased on a bank in Montreal. It was further stated that It would be shown that Robinson started for Brit ish Columbia and was arrested and that he compromised with his creditors by paying $8500. less than one-half of the money alleged to haVe been taken, which was stated as $18,791.14.

M'KEE, PORTLAND, GONE Mystery Surrounds Coming and Go ing of Man at San Francicso. SAN FRANCISCO. May 26. (Spe cial.) -J. McKee, a well-dressed man, evidently of means, who registered ai the St. Francis Hotel from Portland, Demands for Immediate Considera tion of Introducing Publication rail Two Snmmer Insti tutions Granted. All attempts to settle the question of the election of teachers for the coming year for the schools of Portland were brought to naught Monday night by a discussion by members of committees relative to the Introduction of "Read ings From the Bible" into the schools. The discussion lasted until 10 P. M., when adjournment was taken until this afternoon at 4:30 o'clock. The Board voted to adjourn the schools from Wednesday noon until Friday morning in Rose Festival week. There was a good attendance of tax payers present when the Board met. The first request came from the Sell- wood Parent-Teacher Association for a Summer school In that district. This and a Summer school for Vernon were granted, while one for Woodmere was taken under advisement. A committee appointed to procure the Introduction of the textbook, "Read ings From the Bible" asked to be heard The members of this committee stated that they represented 140,000 taxpayers of the city. Intentional Delay Hinted. One of- the committee suggested by inuendo that the School Board was de liberately putting off and putting off discussion in the hope of eventually killing the idea, and the discussion to this effect showed such signs of linger. ing on that O. M. Plummer moved that the textbook be omitted altogether. Accusation that the School Board was sidestepping the issue brought a vigor ous denial from R. L. Sabin, the chair man. M. G. Munly then stated that, while he found the book far from objection able, in fact admirable in every way, he was reluctant to introduce it into the schools for it was bound to an tagonize a large portion of the popu lation. "This question is not merely that of the introduction of an ordinary text book into the schools, but it 1s a ques tion whether we are to change the whole order of things," he said, "and before we change that order we must have an unanimity of opinion. Rev. Mr. Cllne Makes Argument. Rev. C. E. Cline immediately arose. "You're magnifying the objections, Mr. Munly," he said. "The foundations of the state are on the Bible, the first comers to Portland brought this book with them and by your conduct you are bringing the School Board into disre pute. The schools are unmoral and Ir religious. Now don't push us aside; don't give .heed to the few who got you to hear them first and don't talk about there having to be an unanimity of Any one can get the materials for painting a masterpiece; only a real artist can produce one.

Dr. W. B. Hinson asked for a definite date on which the Board would hear all sides to the question. Mr. Sabln announced that the committee would call such a meeting within & month.
