(Continued From first Fage.) tan National Committeeman, is chair man. The committee had thought for while of placing the platform in the middle of the aorth side of the Ice Pulace. Just opposite the main entrance from Marshall street. The speaking tests quickly demonstrated that this ivns nn impossible location, as vocal tones had a tendency to echo badly, besides which the persons in the ele vated sea.ts along the north side would be a little behind the speaker and un able to hear distinctly. Then the platform was moved to the extreme west end and tried there, E. r. Baldwin, secretary of the State Central Committee, doing the experimental speaking. i Members of the committete stationed at the extreme east end of the hippo drome, almost 300 feet from the speak er, and at various points along the Bides, were able to hear with great distinctness words uttered in ordinary speech-making tones. AdTUtages All Equal. In fact, it was as easy to hear couple of hundred feet away from the platform as it was close to it So far as heart, g is concerned, every seat in the house will be a good one. After more tests, all of which em phasized the superior advantages of placing the speaker's platform at the west end of the building, the committee by unanimous vote decided to have it located there. This will be a busy day for Colonel Dunne and his assistants. Nearly 6500 chairs must be set up today on the newly floored arena, and they. have to be -laced with mathematical accuracy. iture are to be five aisles across the floor, one of them, leading across the hall from the main entrance on Mar-hall street, being 10 feet wide. There will also be four aisles the length 01 the hippodrome. All these aisles will be six inches wider than required by the city or dinances. There will be only one main entrance, that in Marshall street, bu there will be seven exits. The wails of the hippodrome will be fairly honey comoett with exits. Decorations Go Vp. The work of decorating will also b finished today. It has been nut ii liarge of Ernest Jenson, who installed lae model of the Columbia River, il lustrating jthe fishing industry, outside t lie Oregon building at the San Fran cisco expedition. One article of decoration which Mr. Jenson won't let get out of his sight Is a flag under which he says every j-resiaent of the United States einc 1S83, and a few foreign rulers, hav epoken. This flag is to be draped di rectly aoove the speaking platform. Colonel Dunne is to have 35 ushers. and perhaps 40, to assist him in taking care or me crowd tomorrow night. The will be on the job from 6 o'clock on and 25 uniformed policemen will also be on hand to help them. Judge McJiary Presides. Seats on the platform with Mr. Hughes will be occupied only by Judge Charles L. McNary. Republican State Chairman, who wilt preside; Governor w ithycomDe. who will introduce Mr. Hughes; members of the State Central Committee members of the Hughes campaign committee, chairmen of county central committees and officers of the State Hughes Alliance, of which J. K. Gill is temporary president. Seats for active members of the press will be on the floor on each side of the platform.

He said he wanted to be sure to see the highway about which he had heard eo much. Bis; Welcome Planned. Although Mr. Hughes and party will arrive at the North Bank station in Portland at o'clock tomorrow morn ing, they will not be officially "at home" until 9 o'clock. At that hour the official reception committee will call to escort them to the Benson hotel. Ralph E. Williams. Republican Na tional Committeeman, who is chair man of this reception committee, ex pressed the hope yesterday that a big crowd would, be down at the North Bank station at 9 o'clock to welcome Mr. Hughes, and. perhaps shake hands with him. In every other city at which he has stopped on his tour immense crowds have been at the depot to greet him. VAXCOtJVF.lt IS CONSIDERATE Mr.. Hughes Will Not Make Address at 5:30 A. M. VANCOUVER, Wash, Aug. 14. (Spe cial.) While a large proportion of the voters of Vancouver and vicinity would be pleased to arise with the birth of a new day to see the next President of the United States, it is now im probable that they will press the mat ter more, as the train is scheduled to pass through here at 5:30 A. M. from Seattle to Portland. , The local Republican leaders know that Mr. Hughes has been having trouble with hoarseness, and feel that it would be doing him an injustice to ask him to get out of ned at so early an hour, so plans for having him make a short speech from the rear of the train here have been dropped. Persons who desire to hear the speaker will go to tse c FAiacs la prqaaq. - . HUGHES GIVES SURPRISE XOMIXEE GOOD "MIXER," REPORTS AD CLUB DELEGATE.

He is a man of the people and he likes to mix among them and he is a rattling good mixer, too. The instant one meets him one realizes' the warmth and power of the man. "His visit to -Portland will, if I do not mistake, change the whole political aspect and put a life and activity into the campaign that it has not known here before. "Hughes is not a grandstander; he Is Just a Tegular- American. When there was a big crowd waiting in front of the hotel in Spokane Baturday.morning to get a glimpse of him, Mr. and Mrs. Hughes went" quietly out of the side door of the hotel and went to church. "He was very much pleased with the arrangements that -have been made for him to meet the people In Portland Wednesday, for he does like to get among them and mix with them, in spite of anything that may nave been said to the effect that he is reserved and distant."
