4 TTIE 3IOKXTXG OREGOXTAX. SATURDAY, JANUARY 27, 1917. OREGON DEMOGRATS PARCEL JOBS TODAY Portland Meeting Is Magnet for "Deserving" Brethren and Office-Seekers. OFFICIAL HEADS MAY FALL Postmaster Myers, and Some Others Don-nstatc, Unlikely to Be Rec ommended for Reappoint ment Montag Is Uncertain. A meeting that many a perfectly deserving- Democratic brother would give his gold teeth to attend will be held at 2 o'clock this afternoon in the of fice of Judge Samuel White, chairman of the Democratic State Central Com mittee, in the Board of Trade building. Members of the Democratic State Central Committee will be here in throngs from all parts of the state. The magnet drawing them here is the fact that in the course of the afternoon the meeting will go into executive ses sion and make some interesting recom mendations relative to what Democrats nhould, and what Democrats shouldn't, get the big Oregon Federal office plums. Among1 those who will not be recom mended is the Honorable Frank Stott Myers, Portland's famous ?6000-a-year postmaster. The Honorable Frank is an active, not to say aggressive candi date for reappointment, but for vari ous reasons he doesn't stand as high In the estimation of the Democratic state committee as other brethren. O. II. Watson Is Backed. A determined effort will be made to obtain the indorsement of the commit tee for George H. Watson, ex-Democratic county chairman in Multnomah County, for the Honorable Frank's post. The name of Marshall N. Dana, who ran in the last campaign for County Clerk, may also come before the meeting. John Montag, United States Marshal, Is another Democrat not in the best of standing with the state committe. As matters look now, Mr. Montag will not be indorsed for reappointment. But then, again, he may be. Frank B. Tichenor. Representative In the Legislature from Coos and Curry ounties, is avowedly in the field for this Job. His friends are making strong rfforts to land the indorsement for him. The job pays $4500 a year and is worth .anybody's time and trouble to go after. There is some doubt as to whether Judge Thoma C. Burke, Collector of Customs in Portland, will be Indorsed for another term. However, Judge Burke should worry, for his brother is Treasurer of the United States and he stands about as high as any man can stand with William G. McAdoo, Secre tary of the Treasury and son-in-law of President Wilson. Milton -. Miller Is Solid. No attempt will be made to unseat Milton A. Miller, Collector of Internal Revenue, though some of the boys are inclined to look askance at the prepon derance of relatives in his office. Among these relatives are Sherman Miles, his son-in-law. who. is chief deputy; C. B. Montague, a nephew, and Charles Miller and Frank Miller, broth ers of the Collector. At the same time the Democratic state committeemen remember grate fully that with the Honorable Milt. Democrats have always been Demo crats, and to the victors Jjave gone the fpoils. Whenever a deserving Demo crat has needed a job, and needed it badly. Senator Miller .could be de pended upon to provide. His job is in no danger. Clarence L. Keames. United States District Attorney, probably will be in dorsed for another term. Mr. Keames stands high with the Government and has made a gootl record and the brethern all realize this. Among those who would like the job, however, and are trying to pry an in dorsement out of the committee at Mr. Heameji' expense, is George F Alex ander, chairman of the Multnomah County Democratic Central Committee in the late campaign. But the Portland job holders are not the only ones to be considered in the general powwow. There is V. P. Fiske, postmaster at Dallas, for example, who Is not in as good Democrat standing and repute as might be the case. There Is said to be quite a little movement afoot to send Mr. Fiske back into private life, and the committee may so recommend. The case of Postmasters August Huckestein. of Salem, and of Post masters Stewart and Campbell, of Albany and Eugene, respectively, are somewhat similar. At any rate, these gentlemen will be mentioned at the meeting, they may depend upon that. Among the prominent Democrats of the state who will atted today's meet ing are Senato Samuel R. Garland, of t.lnn County; Senator W. H. Strayer. of Baker, and Representative Charles T. Sweeney, of Josephine, who are mem bers of the "committee.

MARIE HAMILTON EXPLAINS WHY STOCKING KNITTERS QUIT Actress From Marietta, O, Also Says It's Practically Impossible for Any Girl Left Alone in Bohemian Life of Music Centers to Stay Pure. BY LEONE CASS .BAER. F' OR a long time a lot of us carious folk have been wondering what has become of the old-fashioned actress, who used to ush Into print daily with her knitting of socks for the soldiers. - From chorus maid to tragedy queen they plied the shining needles in columns of print and made long, grey pokes with red heels and toes for the lads in the trenches. The horrors of the continued wa-, and a thousand other things crept in between the knitting and the press, and for months and months we've had no word about the girls who ran to stock ing manufacturing. We've wondered why, too, and where they'd gone? Now I know. Marie Hamilton told me. Marie, you must know, is the fas cinating and altogether adorable prima donna with "The Lilac Domino" and she knows a thing or two that she didn't learn in that dash o" lavender concoction. Marie is from Marietta. O. From now on I will always remember what Marietta, O.. is noted for. It used to puzzle me, for all I could think of was its glassworks. Glauworki Are Outshone. Believe me. Marietta has produced something that far outshines its old glassworks. Marie Hamilton put the place on the map as far as my knowl edge of geography is concerned. This all may be news to Marietta for Marie didn't stay in the home village all her young days. All the family played on something the organ, the flute, the violin or the piano, and early in the game Marie began to sing. Mother Hamilton decided that Marietta had its limitations when a little girl had a big voice and wated to go into grand opera. So they packed all the handgrips and odd trunks around the place and mother and Marie went to Berlin. For' three years she studied there, and she has a thing or two to say about American girls who go over to European art centers minus their mothers or ome protector. "It's the Bohemian life that gets 'em," opines the charming Marie. "At first it's the "novelty, then the fact that they're so far away from home that they fancy no one will hear of their lapses from the straight and narrow, gets girls to do a lot of things they'd never do otherwise. Oftener it's just desperate loneliness. "The European men are dashing and smart in appearance, they know how to do dangerous things beautifully, and the poor little American student girl, enthralled by the foreign atmosphere and the positive lure of the life, just naturally becomes an easy victim. Bohemian Atmosphere Seductive. "Several years ago some opera eing er , returning from Europe said for print that no American girl could stay good and live in European music cen ters. She was absolutely right. The statement caused a great hubbub at the RIVERS BILL PASSED President's Plan to Co-ordinate Improvements Rejected. NORTHWEST ITEMS REMAIN Merit Is Admitted and Xone Is As sailed as "Pork" Engineers Iteport in Favor of Im proving Xehalcm Bay. WASHINGTON, Jan. 26. The annual rivers and harbors appropriation bill, carrying S3S. 000,000, Including more than SIO.000,000 for new projects, was passed by the House today by a vote of 221 to 131. It now goes to the Senate. The President, although opposing the proposed public buildings bill now awaiting action In the Senate, has ex pressed his approval of the rivers and harbors measure insofar as appropria tions for existing projects are con cerned. Plan of Co-ordination Rejected. The House struck out the provision to create a commission of Cabinet of ficers and members of the Senate and House committees to investigate river and harbor Improvement, drainage, reclamation, irrigation and flood con trol problems, with a view to recom mending to Congress next December plans for co-ordinating all such activi ties. This plan, favored by the Presi dent, was eliminated on a point of order after a lively parliamentary fight. The House added to the bill, as draft ed by the committee, $105,000 for Im provement of the harbor at Nome, Alaska. The vote by which the bill passed was not along party lines. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. "Wash ington. Jan. 26. Oregon and other Northwestern items in the river and harbor bill were agreed to by the House of Representatives today, with out protest from those members who have been fighting "pork" appropria tions. Merit of Project Conceded. Never since the fight on "pork" start ed have the Northwestern Items been assailed in Congress for lack of merit. The local engineers at Portland have forwarded to Washington a report fa voring the further Improvement of Nehalem Bay, but the report Is confi dential, as It has not yet been passed upon by the River and Harbor Board. If that Board indorses the conclusions of the local engineer and sends its recommendation to Congress In time, an appropriation for a Nehalem project may be added to the river and harbor bill In the Senate, provided the Senate passes that bill.

Marie Hamilton, Prima Doani With The Lilac Domino," at the Heilig. ' 1 time, I remember, and a lot of folk who sing in choirs and wouldn't "know temptation if they ran smack dab Into it rushed out in denial. But the girls who have lived in the seductive Bo hemian artistic atmosphere, where men love today and are gone on their way tomorrow, where a beautiful voice sways one's every emotion, where every passion is attuned to the world's greatest music, where humanity herds and eats and sleeps in close quarters, where the very air we breathe is eur charged with vice, know that a good girl has absolutely no chance to stay good. I thank the Lord my mother was with me constantly with her Marietta ish ideas." Which brings me back to where I began about the sock knitters and what has become of them. Marie Ham ilton says that all these actresses (and other sisters) knit and knit and knit, until they were black in the face, and paid perfectly good postage to get the weird socks they'd made over to the aforementioned lads in the trenches. And when the good English house wives, or the bustling homemaklng German haus fraus looked upon the messes of stitches, skinny as to leg and so small in the feet that an oyste.' couldn t wear 'em, they promptly set to work ravelling 'em out and then knitted them Into reg'ly sock. Some- how the cruel news was bruited ' about, and that's why, says Marie Hamilton, you don't read anything more about the prima donna who spends her spare time knitting sox for soldiers. yesterday from Chicago via Puget Sound, says he is simply on a tour of the territory to look over plants now operating, having decided on the trip as a change from the former pro gramme of havirg the district mana gers meet him each year at the Chicago headquarters, and he mentioned the new plants as incidentals of his Jour ney. Mrs. Burrows accompanies him. "Never saw such a demand in the market and I think everyone is making money," says Mr. Burrows. Alaska salmon business is particularly strong, he observed, and, in fact, all lines, from canned milk to pineapples, were in a most encouraging state. Today Mr. Burrows will go to The Dalles to look over the company's cannery there, which Is to be enlarged. "We will pack all they can brin:r us," he remarked in speaking of The Dalles property. SLIDE DELAYS HONEYMOON Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Stites Come to Portland by Motor Bus. A slide along the tracks of the O-W. R. & N. near Bridal Veil yester day morning delayed the bridal tour of Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Stites. who were married in La Grande Thursday. After a wait of several , hours while the tracks were being cleared, arrange ments were made for a continuation of the trip to Portland by motor bus, and the party arrived at the Hotel Imperial at 3 o'clock yesterday after noon. The couple were accompanied on the trip by Fred J. Holmes and D. Mc Donald, of La Grande, who are here to attend the convention of Shriners. Mr. Stites is a railroad contractor. Progress of the War. SPIRITED fighting has taken place northwest of Verdun on the front in France, near Riga on the Russian front and Southwest of Kut-El-Amara in the Mesopotamian theater. German forces have been successful in the operations in the first two re gions, while British troops have taken positions from the Turks along the Tigris in the latter. Attacking In force on a front of 1600 meters against Hill 304, northwest of Verdun, Teutonio Boldlers stormed French trenches and took 500 prisoners. rench troops, the latest French com munique says, have recaptured most of the trench positions gained by the Ger mans. Counter attacks by the French failed, as did further . attempts to re gain the lost ground, according to Berlin. German troops also gained ground on Le Mort Homme and Avoeourt. The fighting around Hill 304, "Paris says. was in the nature of hand-to-hand combats at times. West of Riga in the Tirul swamp re gion and along the river Aa, the Ger mans and Russians continue at grips in heavy fighting. German attacks, Berlin says, were successful and ad ditional ground and SOO prisoners were taken. Counter attacks by Russian troops were repulsed in both sectors of the battle front, with heavy losses to the attackers along the Aa. Petrograd announces that the Rus sians, after advancing more than a mile in the battle zone, were forced to return to their position under the Jpres sure of the attacking Germans. Turkish first-line trenches on a front 1100 yards were gained by the British in their attacks southwest of Kut-El-Amara. In addition. London says, some second-line positions on the right bank of the Tigris were taken. West of the Sai River four counter attacks by Turk ish troops were repulsed with heavy losses. There has been no great activity In Roumania. On the northern portion of the French front British troops have carried out several successful raids. An attack on the English coast near Lowestoft, reported by London, was carried out by German light sea forces. The German ships, Berlin says, were abls to approach the English coast and to return to their base without sight ing a hostile vessel. One small vessel, London records officially, fired shells at the coast. Only a tew reached land and there were no casualties. The dam- ace Is reported as Insignificant. JAPAN WANTS TO BE FRIENDLY TO CHINA Foreign Minister Says Policy of Self-interest Is Not Intent of Tokio. OTHERS TO BE REGARDED Bad Situation Created by Former Cabinet to Be Repaired Col lapse and Dismemberment Must Be Avoided. WASHINGTON, Jan. 26. Further light on Japan's policy toward China and the difference between the attitude of the former Japanese cabinet and that of the new ministry is shown by dispatches received by the State De partment today from the American Embassy at Tokio, quoting from the speech of Foreign Minister Motono at the convening last Tuesday of the Parliament shortly afterward dis solved because of its opposition to the Cabinet. The Embassy also cabled that portion of the minister's speech ex pressing gratification at the increased friendly feeling between Japan and the United States, the substance of which already had reached this country in press disptaches. Speaking of China, Viscount Motono declared that Japan had a special in terest in South Manchuria and Eastern Inner Mongolia, which it was necessary to safeguard by treaties and arrange ments, adding that unless these obliga tions were observed, "it is absolutely impossible to expect friendship between Japan and China." He frankly asserted however, that Interference with China's internal policies by the former Cabinet had brought about a bad situation which it was necessary for the sake of both Japan and China to sweep away. "I do not hesitate to declare here," said the Minister, "that the present Cabinet made a declaration positively not to adopt such a policy. The im perial government sincerely and earn estly desires friendly relations with China. The Imperial government In tends to exert its utmost efforts in order to make China understand our sincerity, dui t,nina will nave to decide ?T nerseir wnetner she snail rely on tne mPrial government or not. The imperial government positively declares that it has no intention of specially supporting certain parties in China. "In short the thing most eentlal for the imperial government is that China shall progress smoothly - to a state of civilization. That which causes the imperial government . the most un bearable anxiety is that China might fall into a state of disintegration as a result of the uninterrupted continua tion of interna! disturbances. "I think that since it Is most neces sary that China maintain its Independ ency and preserve its territorial in tegrity, the imperial government must exert all its energy In order to prevent, if possible, collapse and dismember ment of China. "Japan does not Intend to adopt a policy of self-interest In China. It earnestly - desires to preserve harmony with the powers having interests in China. Taking the opinion of the Im perial government, it believes that if every one approaches the matter In good faith there can be reached an understanding satisfactory to both China, herself and to the powers." TEUTONS RAID SUFFOLK Unidentified Crait Attacks in Iflght. Damage Slight. LONDON, Jan. 26. An unidentified German vessel shelled the Suffolk coast of England last night. There were no casualties. The following official announcement was given out today: "A small unidentified German vessel approached the Suffolk coast last night and fired a number of shells, only a portion of which reached the land. There were no casualties and only In significant damage." LOWESTOFT. England, Jan. 26. A hostile vessel arrived off the coast at about 11 o'clock. The night was very dark and the warship could not be made out from the shore. Before be ginning the bombardment she fired two star shells, probably for the pug nose of Identifying possible objectives. The warship then fired a number of shells, several of which exploded, but the total damage was less than 100. Most of the shells exploded on open ground. The bombardment lasted only three minutes. There was no panic. Dent Mowrey, Pianist, Gives Concert. BT JOSEPH MACQUEEN. IN estimating and establishing the value of the art of Dent Mowrey. the Paris pianist, the lasting decision must be that he is best as an impres sionist. He has apparently studied dif ferent schools of pianism, and, while he Is admirable In many departments of that branch of music, he is wise in specializing in that direction where his most precious, most poetic gifts lie impressionism. He loves to create prisms and delicate shadows. At the Little Theater last night, he- fore a capacity audience, including many of Portland's professional pian ists. Dent Mowrey, assisted by Mrs. Mowrey, at a second piano, appeared in quite an important recital. Most of the selections were played by Mr. Mowrey, while ha had Mrs. Mowrey's assistance in interpreting a Mozart "Fantasie" and a Beethoven "Concerto." In keeping with the impressionistic nature of the event, the background of the platform was draped in black. When Mr. Mowrey played all lighting ia the auditorium was turned off, and light from a red-shaded lamp at the rear of the platform cast a red glow over the pianist as he bent over the piano keys. He has reddish, lair hair quite a tousled mass or It. In the Mowrey programme last night the usual Chopin and Liszt composi tions noted at many recitals were ab sent. There were no piano fireworks. We reveled in dreamy bits of Bach Mugillini, Beethcven, Schumann. Grieg, Brahms. Debussy, Mozart and Dent Mowrey. His own 'Impressloas, de Dieting "Winged Victory," Leonardo's "Mona Liza," and others, were among the notable, surprisingly excellent of quite an unusual programme. In the Mozart "Fantasie" played by Mr. and Mrs. Mowrey. Mrs. Mowrey wisely sub ordinated her art to that of her bus band, and the effect was superb. Both pianists were cordially received. The recital shows that Mr. Mowrey, American, who makes his home tempo rarily in this city, gives new evidence of the assured position ha holds imong the ranks of first-class younger Ameri can concert pianists. h.

BUSINESS BLOCKS OWNED Women Who Are Provided For by- Insurance Polices Are Found to Be Geting Aid Also for Each of Minor Children. BUTTE, Mont.. Jan. 26. Wholesale deception of the county authorities in the matter of aid for needy widows with minor children was uncovered be fore the probate division of the District Court today. The names of 33 widows with chil dren who were receiving county aid were stricken from the list of county dependents by order of Judge Dwyer. These women were receiving 640 a month. , . Under the' widow's aid law, passed at the last session of the Legislature, the county must pay to indigent widows with children a certain sum each month for each child. Under this law, not yet two years niH Rilv-r Bow County has been pay ing out between J76.000 and J80.000 a year. Probation officers, appointed by the court to investigate rumors that n.rmn, not entitled to county aid were receiving funds, resulted in the report today that among the 32 whose names were stricken from the list were sev eral who owned extensive property with KiihstAntlal incomes. Others were found who had been the i recinlents of life Insurance policies nnon the death of tneir nusoanus, aim still others who owned their homes wor receiving incomes through the offnrta of older children not enumerat ed as bread-winners in their applica tions to the county for aid. One woman who owns a $9000 ranch four buildings in the city and had 2000 iii the bank, was receiving county aid for each of her four minor children. The investigation of the probation of ficers is to continue.
