CHICAGO MAYOR VISITOR 'El JH jfU 111 . Varty of Chicago Aldermen Is Ac- wmpanylng Executive--Kotarians to Help Kilter tain City Offi cial With Xotable Career. Illinois more particularly Chicago frvlll present her "favorite son" to the people of Portland today. William Hale Thompson, Mayor of Khicagro and the choice of the northern half of Illinois for the Republican nom- l nation for President, will be in Port- and this afternoon and evening:. Ac companying- him will be about 20 Chi- aero Aldermen and may other resl- tlrnts of that city. They are traveling m a special train, which will arrive kver the Southern Pacific at 2 o'clock. They will leave at It o'clock tonight Ifor Tacoma. As soon as they arrive, the Chicajro ns will be loaded into waiting auto mobiles and paraded through the prin cipal scenic boulevards. Informal Reception to Be Held. An informal reception will be held for them at the Chamber of Commerce, And at ti o'clock they will be guests of honor at a dinner at which the Portland Notary Club will be the host. Mayor Thompson la a Rotarian. On account of the Mayors prominent connection with the Republican party in Illinois, all Oregon Republicans who want to meet him have been Invited to ,the Rotary dinner. All former resident lof Illinois, also, are expected to attend. Aitnough tne Chicago Mayor is not fin active candidate for the Presidential nomination, it is believed that he will present formidable strength at the next fftrpublican National convention. Sen ator Lawrence Y. Sherman, of Illinois, Uso is expected to be a candidate, but it is probable that the Illinois Repub- 1 IfftriK will ppntpr thir ntronclh nn nnA S(r the other of them at the forthcom ng primaries. A good many people are heginning to think that the Chicago Mayor will be the Illinois "favorite." Many Achievements i table. Mayor Thompson always has been a prominent figure in the activities of Chicago, As captain of the Chicago Athletic Association football team, he won the championship of the world. borne of his notable achievements thave been: First, the phenomenal ma jority by which he was elected Mayor of Chicago, the largest majority ever given to any Mayor at any time in any city In America; his settlement of the streetcar strike in Chicago, wherein he took both factions, locked them in his office, put the key in his pocket, and refused to allow them to leave until some agreement had been reached for the settlement of the strike. w Lockout Is Attacked. In addition to this settlement, two weeks later he tackled the adjustment 'of the long standing Building Trades lockout, which was affecting more than 250,000 artisans, and had been affecting all commercial lines and stagnating business in the City of Chicago for a period of nearly six months. This was known as the biggest lockout Chicago had ever experienced. An illustration of his executive mind and methods is also exemplified in the fact he appointed a committee and took active part in its work, collecting a fund of more than J375.000 and disbursing it within a period of t wo months for the bene fit of the sufferers of the terrible East land steamship disaster, in which 1000 lives were lost in the Chicago River. The accident brought him post haste from California and interrupted the festivities in which he was about to participate in honor of Chicago day at the fair. This was done at a cost of less than $500, or one-seventh of one per cent. The Chicago party consists of the following: "William ITal Thompson, William Burk hartlt. lr. William Reid. F. O. Crisby, F.

CONSCIENCE SALVE IS $50 Salem Man Resists Gome Warden and Surrenders Himself Later. How much is a man's peace of mind worth? That is a question that a Salem resi dent, whose name is withheld, has had decided for him by the court, and the price was $50. One iay last week Roy Bremmer. a deputy game warden, stopped a man in an automobile on the county road I short distance outside of Salem. Brenv mer, thinking that the man acted sus piciously, asked to see his license. The request was refused and when Brem mer said that he would like to search the .car, that request was also refused. "I till have to arrest you, then, for resisting an officer," said Bremmer; but when he looked up to see the cold barrel of a six-shooter pointed in his direction and was told to keep looking into tne oarrei or the gun as long as it was visible, he obeyed. So transfixed was the warden that he did not have time even to eet the num- Der .or the automobile. And when the car disappeared every possible means of identification was lost. Friday afternoon a man hurried into the police station -at Salem and gave himself up to the officers. He proved to be Bremmer's game law violator sus pect. The Salemite was placed under ar rest for resisting an officer, pleaded guilty and was fined 50 and costs. Rugs $39.50 for a Good Wilton Rug in the 9 by 12 ft. size. In 15 different patterns.
