Scored State Central Com
mittee to Meet July 8 .
That may properly be designated as
r1,th first shot in the local political
campaign was fired yesterday, when
Charles B. Moores, Republican state
chairman, issued a formal call for the
meeting of the state committee at the
Imperial Hotel in Portland at 1 P. M.
Baturday, July 8.
Mr. APoores took occasion. In calling
the committee into action, to deliver
a terrific broadside against the Demo
cratic administration. He reviewed
briefly some of the Democratic short
comings that have been brought most
glaringly to public prominence in the
last four years and pointed out that the
progressive legislation, such as the
currency bill, the income tax and other
acts for which the Democrats loudly
claim credit really was initiated and
put into effect by the Republicans.
Mr. Moores' call, in full, follows:
To the Members of the Oregon Republican
State Central Committee:
PORTLAND. June 20. There will be a
meeting of the newly-elected members of the
Oregon Republican State Central Committee
at the Imperial Hotel In Portland. Or., on
Saturday. July 8. 191-6, at 1 o'clock P. M-,
tor the purpose of organizing tor tne ensuing-
campaign, and for the transaction of
such other business as may be proper!
brought before the committee.
The two great ings of the Republican
party are again practically a unit. Their
united plurality over Wilson in 1012 was
more than 1,800.000. Under the leadership
of two such splendid statesmen as Hughes
and Fairbanks they propose to make effect
ive their combined strength In the coming
campaign by relieving the country In No
vember next from the burdensome incubus
of a Democratic administration.
Bryan Taken to Task.
Four years ago Bryan went to Baltimore
pacifically instructed in the Democratic pri
maries of Nebraska to support Champ Clark
for the Presidency. H repudiated his in
structions under the pretense that Clark was
the candidate of Tammany Hall and the
bosses and supported Wilson.
In June, 1916. Mr. Bryan, as a reporter,
looks on from the press gallery, while
Charley Murphy, of Tammany Hall, having
just secured the best Federal appointment
In New York. Joins hands with Jim Guffey
and Roger Sullivan and Tom Taggart and
Gumshoe Bill Stone, and helps them redeem
the single-term pledge of 1912 by renom
inating Wilson.
In 20 columns of language, embodying the
classiest lot of political bunk that was ever
filched from the pages of a dictionary, Oov
ernor Martin Glynn, of New York, and 6en-
tn- .In m of Kwntuclcr. assure ths
astonished delegates that, among a thou
sand other wonderful things, all set forth in
" detail. Woodrow Wilson "has fastened the
brakes of justice upon the wheels of power,
nd has lifted the mists from the temple
" aihura i-.11 f I ihart S am ar-a on h rtn d
In the Democratic platform adopted they
"challenge comparison of their record, and
their keeping of pledges, with those of any
party of any time."
Their 1912 Dlutform told us "our pledges
; are made to be kept when In office, as well
as relied upon during the campaign.-'
- Single-Term Promise. Dodged.
Woodrow Wilson told us in his 1913 cam
paign, "our platform Is not molasses to catch
files. It means business. It means what it
ays."
Wilson to the principle of a single term, and
Woodrow kept his pledge by writing a con
fidential letter three months arter his eiec-
tlon to Representative A. Mitchell Palmer,
urglnr him to defeat the resolution of Sen-
a tor Cummins calling for a constitutional
- amendment providing for a single term.
That platform directed the Democratic Na
tlonal Committee to require all expressions
of preference for a Presidential candidate
It denounced all attempts to deprive the
; states of any reserved rights, or enlarge the
.- powers of the Federal Government. ,
It demanded free tolls for all coastwise
. vessels going through the Panama Canal.
It called for a rigid and honest enforce
- wient of the civil service lawa.
It pledged the protection of both the life
and tne property or American citizens re
; siding, or doing business, in any foreign
country.
"Wilson Ignores Pledges.
' Woodrow Wilson and the Democratic
party have ignored and repudiated every
. single one of these planks.
waste of money and the lavish appropriations
of "recent Republican Congresses," and 'de-
. manded a return to that simplicity and
economy which befits a democratic govern
ment, and a reduction In the number of
useless of flees.
Senator Borah, In a recent utterance, tells
its how this plank has been redeemed in the
following words: "We are spending $200
$00,000 annually in excess of the expendi
tures of thow years which the Democratic
platform criticises as profligate. We have
created more offices and provided for more
salaries during two and one-half years of
the Wilson Administration than during any
1 0 years In the history of the Government
for the last GO years. We already hae over
MJO.000 Federal employes, and this Adminis
tration has passed laws that In their ulti
mate working will call for 50,000 more. We
could save $300,000,000 annually and get bet
ter service."
Peatce Not Due to Wilson.
""Wilson has kept us out of the war" Is
the rankest pretense of the Democratic de
fense. "Who has kept out Sweden, Norway,
Holland, Switzerland, Portugal, Spain,
Greece and Roumana? Beleaguered upon
every side, the Kaiser has all the business
he can attend to at home and he has neith
er the power nor the disposition to make war
upon us. Wilson has had as much to do
with keeping us out of war with Germany as
Bryan or Henry Ford. No President could
have done less than he has done Jn his
vacillating and equivocal course. Bernstorff,
the German Ambassador, and Secretary
Lansing have been the real factors la the
whole controversy. Conditions which none
of them could control have made war with
us Impossible.
Mexicmn Policy Denounced.
Woodrow Wilson has not only not kept us
out of any war, but he Is the only President
in our whole history who has by his per
sonal bungling Interference involved us In
war with a foreien nower. whn in mo
tion the series) of events that have ended
in the recent call to arms? When, over
three years ago, Madero and Lascurian had
both resigned, Huerta succeeded to the un
disputed control of the national palace in
Mexico. He had the Mexican Congress and
Mexican courts back of him. He was rec
ognized by 20 nations. Including all, or near
ly all, of the great powers. He was a trained '
soldier, educated In the military schools of
Mexico, with the desire and the ability,
if left alone, to restore tranquillity.
The President deliberately intervened In
the interest of the stubborn, conceited and
thick-witted Carranza, and two Irresponsi
ble and roving bandits and cutthroats. Villa
and Zapata. An embargo was placed upon
the shipment of arms to Huerta and every
thing was done to destroy his credit abroad.
The shipment of arms to Villa, the unspeak
able Villa, was permitted and these weapons
were afterwards used to kill American citi
zen a.
This all ended In the destruction of the
only responsible government In Mexico, and
the political chaos and anarchy of the
last three years. No one will undertake to
Impeach the integrity or the patriotic mo
tives of the President, and now that we are
engaged In war, every patriotic citizen will
back hm to the limit, but no amount of
Democratic sophistry can ever palliate or
excuse a course that so aggravated con
ditions and brought such 'deplorable results.
Beat Measures or Republican Origin.
All of the crowning achievements of the
Wilson Administration are of Republican
origin. Nothing saved us In 1914 from the
usual Democratic panic but the Republican
Aldrlch-Vreeland law. The Federal reserve
act did not take effect until the middle ot
November, 1014, after the crisis was over
and after more than three months of the
European war had begun to mollify the ef
fects of the Underwood tariff law. This
Federal reserve law. It may be noted, is.
In all Its essentials, the work of Nelson W.
Aldrlch, the late Republican Senator from
Rhode Island.
The passage of the Income tax law was
made possible only by step taken by a
Republican Administration to- secure sin
amendment to the Constitution making such
a law constitutional. The recent repeal of
the provision of the Underwood law placing
sugar on the free list Is a. Democratic ad
mission that the original Republican con
tention was correct. The conversion of
Woodrow Wilson and a Democratic Congress
to a nonpartisan tariff commission is a
gratifying response to the demand made for
such a commission In 1912 In the platforms
of the Republican and Progressive parties.
'Democ ratio prosperity" Defined.
The Pacific Northwest has for three years,
experienced Democratic prosperity of the
real brand. In the Eastern States there
has appeared a remarkable political phe
nomenon, that no other generation has ever
witnessed. It is the coexistence of Demo
cratic control and abnormal prosperity,
growing out of the European war. The
reports of the great commercial agencies,
showing the greatest number of business
failures In our history, demonstrate, bow
ever, that this temporary prosperity is
neither normal nor evenl- distributed. Our
real troubles began as soon as the Under
wood law got fairly under way. In the year
preceding the war, business was everyrwhere
depressed, the army of unemployed num
bered many hundreds of thousands, mines
were shut down building operations were
at a standstill, the steel mills of the coun
try were running at only 40 per cent capac
ity, and 800,000 freigh tears were standing
Idle on the sidetracks of American rail
roads. Today the steel mills and the ammunition
plants are glutted with hundreds of millions
or ooiiars- worm or war oraers. i na ae
mttnd for foodstuffs and manufactured
goods, shoes, clothing, armored automobiles,
frelghtcars. horses, mules, cattle, sheep,
mine products, etc., represent other hun
dreds of millions spent In prosecuting the
greatest war In history.
A 11 this means employment for Immense
armies of American laborers and their wages
are spent In every avenue of trade and in
dustry throughout the land. Tens of
thousands of reservists have relieved the
glut In our labor market by leaving for for
eign shores. Foreign Immigration has prac
tically ceased. Over $300,000,000 la being
spent at home annually that In other years
our tourists were spending In Europe, livery
existing condition tends to neutralize the
effect of Democratic control and bring us a
prosperity never before equaled in our his
tory. Business Failures Greatest.
But in spite of the enormous Impetus
given to business by war orders, already
aggregating $2,000,000,000, the number of
business failures In the United States under
the Wilson Administration has never be
fore been even approximated. Under the
Underwood tariff law, although our Imports
exceed any figure ever before known In our
National history, there has been a constant
deficit because of our redcued tariff rates
that must be made good by a continuous
"war tax," something never known In time
of peace under Republican control. The
amount Involved In business failures in the
United States In 1918, 1914 and 1915 aggre
gates $910,447,774. or nearly $330,000,000
more than was ever known In any three
successive years of any Republican Admin
istration. The number of business failures
in the United States in 1914 and 1015 ag
gregated 39,574, or over 10,000 more than
in any prior period of two years In our
whole history as a Nation.
This is not rhetorio from the language
laboratory ' of Governor Martin Glynn or
Senator Ollle James, but a bundle of cold
facts from the great commercial agency of
R. G. Dunn & Company. If this is the best
the Democratic party can do, aided, as It has
been, by $2,000,000,000 worth of war orders
in the last 18 months, it should have the
decency to acknowledge its utter want of
constructive capacity and ask for the ap
pointment of a receiver to take charge of the
country until the Republican party can as
sume control, as it will, on the coming
4th of March. CHAS. B. MOORES.

PRETTY WIFE DIVORCED
W.'J. MACArLET, OO, AND WIFE, 83,
ARB HOT HAPPY.
YoU( Wife Not Interested In Matters
That Concerned Older JTuaband,
He Say; Trouble Results.
Alterations In the complaint were of
cruel and Inhuman treatment, but the
real trouble was that he was 65 years
old and she 33 and pretty, William J.
Macauley, sales manager for the Na
tional Cash Register Company in Port
land, maintained in commenting on
the divorce suit brought to a success-
ful conclusion by his wife, Mrs. Willi
Macauley, yesterday.
Things which interested her did not
interest him, and there lay the rub.
Circuit Judse Gantenbein halted the
case yesterday to see if a settlement
could not be made by both parties
without taking up several days in trial.
An agreement was reached, the wife
testified briefly to alleged cruel treat
ment, and the decree was granted.
She is to receive $75 a month and S200
attorneys' fees, and each side was or
dered to pay its own costs.
Mrs. Macauley was a telephone girl
in Butte, Mont., when they were mar
ried, August 3, 1908. and charged that
her husband twitted her with saving
her "from the gutter." Mr. Macauley
said yesterday that his wife had taken
valuable prizes that he had received in
salesmanship contests from him, and
had diamonds of his to the value of
5200. which had been purchased as an
investment. She said he gave them to
her.
Mr. Macauley has made as high as
$20,000 a year, he asserted.
DAMAGE VERDICT IS $1250
Autoist Must Pay for Injuries to
Sleigh-Driver.
As the result of a collision between
an automobile driven by Gay M. Lom
bard and the horse-drawn sleigh of
Otto Williams, damages of $1250 were
awarded Mr. Williams by a Jury in the
court of Circuit Judge Gantenbein yes
terday. He was severely injured and
sued for $10,000.
The accident occurred January 20,
1914, on Lovejoy street, near Twenty
fourth. It was a rear-end collision and
Mr. Lombard is said to have failed to
sound his horn.
