INTEREST CENTERS
If RAGE FOR MAYOR
Election of Mr. Baker Would
Increase Chances of Com
missionership Aspirants.
THIRD MAN IS FAVORED
K. K. Knblt Has Arranged Speaking
Programme Which Will Enable
Him to Appear In Every
District Prior to Jnne 4.
The Portland city election will be
held two weeks from today, and the
campaign shortly will reach its high
est pitch. Incidentally, the date of the
city election is also the date of the
special state election, at which the
people will pass on the $6,000,000 road
bond measure and other proposed laws
submitted by the Legislature.
In the city election campaign, inter
est continues to center in the contest
for the mayoralty. Not nearly eo
much comment is heard about the race
for Commlssionershlps, for which there
are 16 entries, with two to be elected.
- As matters stand, it is quite proba
ble, however, that three Commissioners
instead of two will be elected.
This will be the case if George L.
Baker is elected Mayor. In that event,
an additional Commissioner will be
chosen by the other Commissioners to
succeed him as Commissioner of Public
Affairs, as his term in that office has
two more years to run.
Mr. Baker some time ago gave his
pledge to vote for the man as his suc
cessor who has the highest number of
votes for Commissioner next to the two
who are regularly elected.
If anybody other than Mr. Baker is
elected Mayor, vpf course this situation
will not apply. Mr. Daly Is now a Com
missioner, it is true, but his term ex
pires and his place is one of the two
Commlssionershlps to be filled. But if
Mr. Baker is elected, there will then
be three new Commissioners, as ex
plained. This has quite a . bearing on the
Mayoralty situation, for friends of the
various candidates for Commissioner
ships areworking for the election of
Mr. Baker, as Mayor. With his elec
tion there will be three vacancies for
Commissioner, and their chances will
thereby be Increased 50 per cent.
K. K. Kubll, candidate for City Com
missioner, is arranging a speaking pro
gramme that will enable him to appear
in every district between now and
election, June 4. He will speak before
the Montavllla Board of Trade, the
Laurelhurst Club and the Transporta
tion Club within the next few days.

Star.
Annle-for-Spite" Is one of the most
enjoyable of all of the American-Mutual
productions starring that bit of blonde
winsomeness, Mary Miles Minter. Mary
is very bold in this, her latest picture,
for she hides those famous tresses un
der a cap, and besmears that famous
complexion with a handful of soot. But
that is not a permanent disguise, for
Mary, the girl of the tenements, blos
soms forth into the kind of a girl
every little waif must fancy in her
dreams.
'Annle-for-Spite" has a wlstfulness
that makes it a particularly apoeallng
Mary Miles Minter subject. Direction is
good, some splendid backgrounds are
shown, and taken altogether the pic
ture ranks mighty near the top of the
film vehicles of the youthful Mary. She
is a girl of the slums, knocked about
at the whim of burly Mrs. Cadegan,
who has six children of her own. It
is the dream of the waifs life that
some day she will be adopted by a rich
lady, who will take her to
live in a big marble man
sion, and surround her with every
luxury. Something of this sort does
happen, and the child of the tenements
becomes blessed with all that she cov
ets and likewise affection.
"The Cure" shows no signs of waver
ing as a risibility-tickler. This Charlie
Chaplin two-reeler of cripples and bot
tles, the latter miraculously restoring
the former to temporary agility, com
prises the fag end of the Star's double
bill for the early week. Its return
engagement met with a reception al
most sb enthusiastic as that which
welcomed its initial screening.
The king of screen slapstlckers In

The Cure." He falls in love with

"The Badge or Shame"; the new title
under which World is presenting a
picturization of that hectic drama, "The
Yellow Ticket," stars the beautiful
Clara Kimball Young at the Sunset
Theater. The story is extremely dra
matic, sensational and affords a splen
did vehicle for the popular star.
The Badge of Shame" Is a story of
darkest Russia, including a massacre
or the Jews at Kiev, and outlines the
life of an ambitious girl who secures
the shameful "yellow ticket" in order
that she may remain in Kiev and pur
sue her artistic studies in safety. Then
the story takes the girl to America,
where she becomes an operatic star.
Love enters her life, but the past, in
the shape of the Russian secret DOlice
and the saffron ticket, pursues her
into the land of liberty and nearly en
compasses the wreck of all hopes of
Happiness.
Miss Young plays the part of Sonia,
a young Russian Jewess, who has the
misfortune to be sought after by Vas
sall. police spy. She rebuffs him and
to further his ends he instigates a
massacre of -the Jews. The result is
that all Jews are banished from Kiev,
Sonia's parents are killed, and the only
way she can remain In the city to pur
sue her musical studies is to secure
the yellow ticket, symbolic of a de
graded woman. Police persecution is
not ended, however, for the girl Is
not living as should a holder of the
ticket, and she flees to America, where
lame and fortune await her.
Years later Vassili goes to America,
Columbia.
"The Call of Her People" is the name
of the plcturized version of "Egypt,
the Edward Sheldon story of gypsy
life. This photoplay. In seven reels,
with Ethel Barrymore in the stellar
role, comprises the chief entertainment
feature of the Columbia's early week
programme. . With this is being shown
"A Maiden's Trust," a Mack Sennett
Keystone comedy with Ford Sterling as
the master of mirth.
"The Call of Her People" has been
filmed with unusual fidelity to atmos
phere and type, and gives more of an
insight into the lives of these nomads
of civilization than any other motion
picture. Some of the scenery is cor
geous, while there is plenty of action,
including a strenuous tight between
gypsies, an element of mystery, and
sharp contrast showing the wide gulf
separating these folk of the world
highways and the people one comes In
contact with daily.
Miss Barrymore is cast In the role o
E-eypi. most beautiful of he gypsy
women, who is Bought by Faro, son of

"The War Bride's Secret." the Will

the screen's war literature, is the
Globe Theater's attraction for the early
week. With this flve-reeler, starring
Virginia Pearson, is being shown "The

"The War Bride's Secret" Is a story
of war and its effect on the non-bel

LEGE. Corvallls. May 20. (Special.)
Drainage operations to double tne pro
ducing power of some 3000 acres of salt
lands in the Umatilla Meadows near
Stanfleld have every promise of suc
cess, according to Y. L. Powers, rro-
fessor of Irrigation and Drainage at the
State Agricultural College, who has
made a preliminary survey of the proj
ect. In the present water-logged condition
the land has become alkaline and
produces only salt grass pasture, worth
but or 7 a season. With the yield
of but five tons of alfalfa an acre,
which Is possible after drainage, the
net Income per acre following reclama
tion would be at least flo. It Is en
tirely feasible to reclaim this land at
a cost of 312 to 115 for outlet ditches
and a limited amount of supplementary
field drainage.
