RECORD ONE OF SUCCESS
Official Invitation to lie Made
After Two Weeks' Notice Has
Been GHen Members Cho
sen Pastor Is Xoted Writer.
:ev. William Russell Owen, of Han
son Place Baptist Church. Brooklyn,
N. Y., will be called to the pastorate
of the "White Temple of Portland.
At a meeting of the church, to be
held on Thursday night, March 30, the
call will be made. .Decision regarding
this action was reached last night at
the prayer meeting, when reports were
made by the pulpit committee, repre
sented by Frank K. Hilton, chairman,
and H. W. Stone, who has just returned
from the East, where he interviewed
liev. Mr. Owen.
Both Mr. Hilton and Mr. Stone
strongly indorsed the Brooklyn pastor.
Jjetters were read from Rev. Chester
P". Ralston, Rev. William Hubble, Frank
yi. Goodchild and several other lead
ing ministers and editors of New York
City, all of whom spoke in the highest
terms of Mr. Owen.
Letters AH Praise Ability.
Although the pulpit committee has
Jiad many men under consideration
since the resignation of Dr. W. B. Hin
son, which was made shortly before
the close of the year, this is the first
time that it has given to the church
a. report suggesting and indorsing a
candidate for the pulpit of the White
Temple. Rev. Mr. Owen's name was
offered with the unanimous approval
of the 14 members of the board of dea
cons. Many of the members, when .Mr.
Owen was suggested, testified as to
his qualifications. The letters from the
Kast spoke of him as "a splendid or
ganizer," "an eloquent speaker and
profound student," "a live wire," "a
winner," "a coming man of the de
nomination, if he had not already ar
rived," "one of the most logical
writers," "conservative, but progres
sive." "We first' communicated with Mr.
Owen in December," said Mr. Hilton,
in offering his report, and then he
read the letters received from the
Kastern man. Each was written in
a manly and direct style. Mr. Owen
said that he had always hoped that
some day he would have a pastorate in
the West, but didn't know whether or
not this was the time.
His interest in his work at Hanson
riace Church, where he has been for
hut two years and has built up the
congregation and the organizations,
held him so strongly that the Port
land committee was forced to elimi
nate his name until Mr. Stone went to
Brooklyn, heard him preach, met and
talked with him and explained the con
ditions here.
Mr. Stone, as general secretary of
the Y. M. C. A., went East on busi
ness for that organization, but was
commissioned by the White Temple, in
which he is a. deacon and superinten
dent of the Sunday School, to inter
view several pastors. His decision fa
voring Mr. Owen was the result.
. Church Difficulties Overcome. '
Rev. William Russell Owen is 37
years of age. He has been in Hanson
Place for two years, working against
odds in a district in which business is
crowding out the residences and other
churches and associations have claims
on the social activities that belong to
a church. In spite of obstacles he has
largely increased his membership and
the efficiency of the church. His five
minute sermons to children, preceding
the regular sermon, Mr. Stone said,
were gems of beauty, simplicity and
conviction.
Prior to taking up the work in
Brooklyn, Mr. Owen was for several
years in Atlanta. Ga., and before that
in Baltimore. He is known as a writer
as well as a pastor, and a leader in
religious work in the state of New
Y'ork.
Announcement will be made at all
sessions of the church giving notice of
the official action that will take place
at the meeting of March 30.
Dr. W. B. Hinson, who resigned from
the White Temple, pastorate to enter
evangelistic work for the Baptist Home
Missionary Society, was in charge of
the church for more than five years. He
nreached forceful sermons and drew
large congregations, and it was to keep
up the standard of the pulpit and the
work that the committee felt in duty
called on to search diligently befbre
making a choice.
"Mr. Owen is like a ray of sunshine,"
was Mr. Stone's summing up of the
man whom the church will call.
Cult States Warned of Frost.
WASHINGTON. March 16. Frost
warnings for the east gulf and south
Atlantic states as far south as Miami,
Kla., were issued tonight by the Weath
er Bureau. There was frost this morn
ing in Central Florida, with freezing
temperatures in the northern portion of
that state.

A GIRL'S COMPLEXION
Very few girla get through their "teens
without eruptions or pimples showing on
their faces.
These may be doe to indigestion resnl t
ing from improper diet. If so they will
quickly disappear when the proper food
is adhered to. If they are accompanied
by pallor and listleasness you most look
to the condition of the blood.
Because these eruptions on the faces of
school girls are so common they seldom
receive the attention from parents that
they require. When they indicate thin
blood or anemia there is a ready remedy
in Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Thesetonic
pills, free from harmful drugs, are pretty
sure to help growing girls because they
build up the blood at a time when the
demand on it is greatest. As the blood
is made rich and red, fickle appetites be
come normal, lassitude gives way to
vigor, the cheeks and lips show the glow
of health and the whole system is toned
op. The nervous system is invigorated
and with proper attention to diet many
dangers are averted.

OREGON POLITICAL GOSSIP
With Only 28 Days Left to Register and Voters Lagging, Two Oregon Re
publican Club Members Start Republican Registration Contest Dan
Kellaher, Republican Again, Says Time Has Come to Forget Past Fac
tionalism Ten Candidates After $1800-a-Year Assessorship in Malheur
County News of the Candidates.
AS APRIL 18 is the last date pre
ceding the primary election on
which the County Clerk can reg
ister voters under the law, it behooves
the unregistered to make more haste.
So far the percentage of registrations
is considerably below the percentage
at this time last year. This means a
grand rush in the last fow days of the
registration period, and long lines of
people awaiting their turn.
To register now is a matter of a few
minutes only. Far from being painful,
the process Is even pleasant. Women
are not even asked to tell their ages
this year.
Registrations now are made under
the new permanent registration law.
Persons registering at this time escape
the bother of having to reregister later,
unless they move out of their pre
cincts, change their names (as when
an unmarried woman marries), or neg
lect to vote at lease once in two years.
John L. Day and C. R. Meloney,' of
the Oregon Republican Club, have
entered into a registration contest, with
a dinner for two as the stake. Mr.
Meloney started it by asserting that
he would get 100 persons to register
by the time the books close on April 18.
"That's nothing," retorted Mr. Day.
"I'll get 150, or buy a good dinner for
two."
This stirred Mr. Meloney's sporting
blood. As the agreement now stands,
each is in honor bound to get at least
150 persons to register. The one hav
ing the greatest number over 150 when
the books close April 18 dines at the
other's expense. This means some in
tense hustling, for they have only 28
working days to make good " their
boasts, and will have to average a lit
tle better than five registrations a day.
If every member of the Oregon Re
publican Club, which has a roster, of
about 1000 active members, were to
follow their example to the extent of
registering only 10 Republicans each
in the same period, the registration
totals would be increased by 10,000.
Dan Kellaher. the most stalwart Pro
gressive of them all, the same Dan
Kellaher who back in 1912 called the
first meeting in Oregon, at the East
Side Library in Portland, to organize
the Progressive party in this state, is
officially a Republican again. Officially,
because he went to County Clerk Cof
fey's registration office in the Court
house yesterday to register, and had
his party affiliation written down as
Republican" in black and white.
"The disposition among Oregon Pro
gressives and Republicans," eaid Mr.
Kellaher later, "is to get together. The
time has come for us to bury all fac
tionalism, take off our coats and work
together for the election of a Republi
can President and a Republican Con
gress. "Whether the Republican nomi
nee is Theodore Roosevelt, or Hughes,
or Cummins, or whoever he is. you'll
find me right in line working for Re
publican success."
Judging from the wild and unmiti
gated scramble for the office of As
sessor in Malheur County, its salary
of $1800 a year must look pretty, big
to some of the boys. No fewer than
10 officially announced candidates for
the Republican or Democratic nominations-are
already in the field, and the
plaintive urging of the voice of the
people is like unto the ringing of bells
through the land. Strangely enough,
six of the candidates are after the
Democratic nomination, leaving four
to contest for the Republican primary
indorsement. The four Republicans in
clude L. K., Hill, incumbent; S. L.
Payne. A. A. Roberts and F. B. Butz,
The six after the Democratic nomina
tion .are L. G. Willis, J. M. Duncan,
Guy Johnston, B. W. Mulkey, R M
Carlile and A. E. Schmidt.
Thomas Mannix will be one of the
speakers at a meeting of the Lincoln
Republican Club in the Central Li
brary at 8 o'clock tomorrow night.
After a short business session, at which
a few amendments to the constitution
and bylaws are to be adopted, there
will be a speaking and musical pro
gramme. Several Republican primary
candidates will make brief talks. The
general public is invited to attend.
Sam Downey, who was a deputy
under ex-Sheriff Tom Word for several
terms, is prominently mentioned as a
prospective candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for Sheriff of Mult
nomah County. Mr. Downey lives in
St. Johns. H. L. Wallace is already in
the field for the Democratic nomina
tion. Persons who register as independents
do not get a vote in primary elections.
There seems to ba considerable misap
prehension on this score on the part
of a. good many voters.
L. F. Knowlton. of the Sellwood
branch of the Oregon Republican Club,
has been elected to the vacancy In
thfc executive committee of the Oregon
Republican Club caused by the resigna
tion of A. A. Muck, who is running
for County Commissioner. Mr. Knowl
ton is city ticket agent for the North
Bank Road and the Great Northern Pa
cific Steamship Company.
"In '96 Minnesota was first state to
declare for McKinley and stood by him
to the end," says a telegram to David
E. Lofgren, of Portland, from Gov
ernor Burnquist,' of Minnesota. "This
year Minnesota is first state to in
dorse in primary election any candi
date for President except a favorite
son. Tuesday's election shows that
Cummins wins all of our 24 delegates
by immense majorities."
W. M". (Pike) Davis has been ap
pointed by the Laurelhurst Club as
chairman of a committee to increase
the registration from that district. 1
committee plans to take many to the
registration office by automobile.
SALEM, Or., March 16. (Special.)
Conrad P. Olson, of Portland, a mem
ber of the lower House in the last Leg
islature from Multnomah County, to
day filed declaration of candidacy for
the Republican nomination for State
Senator from Multnomah County. His
slogan is: "Less laws; lower taxes."
"I promise to use my best efforts to
limit the flood of new legislation,"" he
says in his statement to voters, "and
to promote economy and efficiency in
governmental affairs, and to devise
some means for encouraging the de
velopment of manufacturing indus
tries." "Rural credits, lower taxes, business
methods applied to public business,
Oregon's development," is the slogan
of Louis E. Bean, of Eugene, who filed
his declaration today for the Repub
lican nomination for Representative
from Lane County. If elected Mr. Bean
has announced that he will be a can
didate for Speaker of the House. In
his statement to voters, Mr. Bean de
clares: "I will oppose all legislation that
would further increase the burdens of
taxation. The constant increase" of
taxes from year to year has reached
the limit of ability to pay. Oregon can
not expect to attract new capital or
to receive her full measure of develop
ment under the present exorbitant
taxes. We need stability in our laws,
with more efficient administration and
enforcement; the application of sane,
common-sense business principles to
public business. I favor the principle
of rural credits, cheaper money on long
time payments for agricultural develop
ment; road laws simplified, uniform
levy on all property, equalization of
funds between the several districts."
George R. Wilbur, of Hood River, to
day filed his declaration for candidacy
for the Democratic nomination for
State Senator from the Sixteenth Dis
trict, comprising Hood River and
Wasco Counties.
Candidates for District Attorney who
filed declarations today are Fred W.
Herman, of Rainier, Republican, Co
lumbia County, and Oscar E. Smith, of
Pendleton, Republican, Umatilla County.
GOLD BEACH, Or., March 16. (Spe
cial.) It is reported that S. P. Pierce,
Representative in the Legislature from
Coos and Curry counties for several
terms, again will be a candidate In the
primaries. Mr. Pierce is a Republican.
OREGON CITY. Or., March 16. (Spe
cial.) There are five candidates in
the race for Representative in the
Legislature from Clackamas County,
the entry of Dr. H. A. Dedman, of
Canby, into the field this week sup
plying the fifth. The others are:
George C. Brownell and C. Schuebel, of
Oregon City; E. D. Olds, of Oak Grove,
and H. C. Stephens, of George. The
candidacy of Dr. Dedman was not un
expected, as a number of the leading
citizens of the southern part of Clack
amas County have contended that their
section was entitled to at least one of
the three Representatives to be chosen
from Clackamas and Dr. Dedman has
the backing and support of his fellow
townsmen.
E. W. Bartlett.' of Estacada, filed
his declaration for District Attorney,
and he will oppose O. W. Eastham and
William M. Stone, of Oregon City, for
the Republican nomination.
George E. Swafford may enter the
field for the Republican nomination
for Recorder of Conveyances. Three
candidates, Dudley C. Boyles. Clyde
Hughes and Pearl Selby, already are
in the race.
The Democratic candidates up to this
time are G. F. Johnson, for . County
Assessor, and Charles W. Risley for
Commissioner. It is considered prob
able that the minority party will bring
forth candidates for Representative,
Sheriff and Recorder, but no candi
dates have yet appeared for these of
fices. H. W. Koehler. of Oswego, who
was the Democratic Sheriff two years
ago, will not be a candidate.
Admiral Benson Warns Against
Adopting , Submarine Ideas of
Present War and Is Conserv
ative as to Aircraft.
WASHINGTON. March 16. Rear-Ad
miral Benson, chief of naval operations,
today told the House naval committee
in minute detail of the preliminary
work of preparing the Navy for an
emergency.
The naval militia, he said, is being
brought constantly in closer touch with
Navy ideas; merchant vessels are under
nspection to determine what private
craft would be immediately available
in case of war.
Admiral Benson sounded a warning
against adopting the submarine ideas
of the present war. Abroad for
geographical and other reasons, he
said, conditions are influencing the
submarine warfare that hardly are
likely to be encountered in any war
in which the United States may be
engaged.
Aviation development, he said, was
progressing slowly and conservative-
y. Sixteen aircraft are in commis
sion at Pensacola- Twenty-five more
are ordered and 25 extra motors. Re
ports from Pensacola were most en
couraging in results and enthusiasm of
personnel.
Aircraft Kstimatea Reduced.
"I am greatly responsible," he said,
"for cutting the aviation estimate to
$2,000,000 from the $5,000,000 or larger
amounts proposed by others. 1 do not
Deiieve we should spend such a large
sum of money that would divert at
tention from the vital problem of using
aircraft for scouting in connection
with the operations of the fleet."
Admiral Benson said he had listed
2031 merchant ships, powerboats and
other auxiliary craft which might be
pressed Into service in the event of war.
He recommended enlargement of the
Navy personnel by 12,000 next year, and
said he thought about 8000 could be
raised in event of war from the Naval
Reserve and Naval Militia and about
16,000 from the ranks of those who have
served and have been honorably dis
charged. Aeroplanes Easy to Obtain.
In his discussion of aeroplanes, the
Admiral suggested that their use by
the Navy should be confined chiefly to
scouting duty until a higher degree of
perfection has been reached in their
construction. He declared there was no
doubt the Navy could get aeroplanes
as fast as it needed them in time of
emergency.
"We can build them as rapidly as we
can use them," he said. "We can turn
them out in quantity easily. If it should
be necessary to go into war, we would
not enter the war without the authority
of Congress, and Congress, being in
session, would enable us to duplicate
in quantity standard types that may
have been meantime developed."
"In case of war, how many aeroplanes
ought we to have?" he was asked.
"We should start off with 100 service
machines, increasing the number as de
velopment wamuiC was the reply.
MR. BAKER CLAMPS LID
Further Appropriations From Gen
eral Fund to Be Opposed.
A report, showing that the City
Council since December 1 of last year
has appropriated $98,000 from the gen
eral fund in items not included in the
budget for 1916, caused Commissioner
Baker to announce that as far as he is
concerned the lid will be clamped
down tight on general fund expendi
tures from now on. Such a course, he
says, is absolutely necessary. The re
port showing the expenditures to date
was submitted by Commissioner Bige
low. The appropriations have been for
things not foreseen when the 1916 bud
get was being made up. Should the
pace be kept up much longer, it is said,
the city would run into bankruptcy.
Mud Buries Sloop; Damages Asked.
George S. Shepherd's 28-foot sloop,
Albratross II, was buried under 40
feet of mud two years ago, while
moored to the south wing of the In-man-Poulsen
wharf. Suit for $100
damages was filed in the Circuit Court
against the Inman-Poulsen Lumber
Company and the Port of Portland by
the owner yesterday. In filling the
property of the lumber company some
141,552 cubic yards of silt was spread
about, incidentally submerging the
sloop.
