With Primaries Six Months
Away, County Post Worth
$3000 Excites Envy.
PATRONAGE IS EXTENSIVE
Kufus Ilolman and Phllo Holbrook
Expected to Run Again, Wlille
John Coffey and Win II. Daly
Are Also Named on List.
With the primary nominating elec
tion more than six months away, an
even dozen men are either actively at
work themselves or are being groomed
by "insistent friends" for one of the
two County Commissionerships to be
filled in next year's election. The
terms of Kufus C. Holman, chairman
of the Board of County Commissioners,
and Philo Holbrook. expire. So far as
known both Incumbents will seek re
election. As in previous elections, the num
ber of candidates for this office will
exceed and the interest will equal the
number of aspirants for either United
States Senator or Governor. The ac
tion of the last Legislature in increas
ing the salary, of County . Commission
ers in this county to $3000 a year, makes
the post more attractive than formerly
when these officials labored for the
county at a modest per diem of $3.
Aside from the great amount of poli
tical patronage to be distributed by
the Commissioners, few of the aspirants
for these positions will deny that the
Increased salary is inviting.
In addition to Commissioners Holman
and Holbrook who are expected to ask
for another term, the list of candidates
being discussed as their probable op
ponents includes A. A. Bailey, former
State Senator and member of the Re
publican State Central Committee;
John B. Coffey, ex-County Clerk; Ralph
W. Hoyt. former County Treasurer;
George B. Thomas, one-time member
of the" Port of Portland: W. H. H. Du
fur, president of the Pioneers' Asso
ciation and bailiff to County Judge
Tazwell; John E. Kelly, proprietor of
the Olympian Cafe; George W. Hack,
ex-County Commissioner and business
man; L. G. Carpenter, ex-State Repre
sentative from this county; Will H.
Daly, ex-City Commissioner, and John
B. Schaefer, business man of Linnton.
Plans are being made for a patriotic
banquet to be held in Portland within
the next two weeks. United States
Senators Chamberlain and McNary and
Representatives Hawley, Sinnott and
McArthur will be the guests of honor
on this occasion. The affair will be
distinctly non-partisan. The details -of
the banquet are being arranged by a
committee consisting of prominent Re
publicans, Democrats and Progressives.
Definite announcement of the date for
the dinner will be made in a few days.
Voters who have not voted at least
once in the last two years and those
who have moved from the precinct in
which they last registered must re
register in order to vote in the pri
mary and general elections next year.
The registration department at the
Courthouse is open everyday from 8
o'clock to 5 o'clock.
act, appears as a police officer, a role
ho plays with vigorous ability, and
.Mark J. Ellison, who is featured in the
l.ig act. deserves great credit for his
splendid portrayal of the gunman. The
act is one of the best in point of ex
cellence of plot and acting strength
that has ever been presented at the
Hippodrome. It is elaborate in scale
and interesting in every essential.
The six Cornallas, all of them ex
cellent acrobats, offer a sensational
and whirlwind series of bounces,
bumps, twists and balancings that
amaze.
An interesting and attractive act is
that of Peggy Worth, formerly of the
motion picture world, whose work with
Mabel Normand is remembered. Miss
Worth sings and tells clever stories,
featuring a smart and tuneful new mil
itary ballad.
Two chaps who win a lot of laughs
are Kennedy and Fitzpatrick. One ap
pears as a,' darky in Jail and the other
one stands outside and consoles and
argues.
Two pretty maids. Misses Hunter anjl
Shaw, present a keen little banjo song
alogue, which is above the average in
melody interest.
A mechanical silhouette novelty is
offered by two clever folk, the Halk
ings. "Shall We Forgive Her?" the first of
the Brady-made pictures, is being
shown, with June Elvidge featured.

In AH A pp ointments.
If one travels the length and breadth
of America, so the critics say, he will
find nowhere a site superior to that
chosen for the new Medical School of
the University of Oregon, ground for
which was broken yesterday on the
crest of Marquam Hill.
"We are now establishing the first
unit of the new school," said Dr. Ken
neth A. J. Mackenzie, dean of the
Medical School of the University of
Oregon. "The school is to be on a high
grade basis for the teaching of medi
cine, so far as all appointments are
concerned. It will provide the very
latest types of laboratories, the last
thing in scientific construction."
The building will be 60x200, with a
simple but classic exterior of a warm
toned, light gray brick, trimmed with
terra cotta in the same tone, and with
spandrels of gray-green terra cotta for
harmony. The general structure of the
building is of reinforced concrete and
is fireproof.
There will be six laboratories, each
with an individual heating and ventila
tion system, a huge assembly hall, lec
ture rooms, commodious administrative
quarters and a suite of apartments for
the Janitor. The contract for general
construction has been awarded to John
Almeter and is for $80,000.
Other awarded contracts are as fol
lows: Electrical fixtures and wiring.
Page, McKinney & Co.; plumbing, Pull
man & Walker: heating, Sturgis &
Sturgis. These contracts will bring the
cost of the unit Tip to $106,000. The
plans for the new structure were de
signed by WhitehoOse & Fouilhoux and
Lawrence & Holforn, associated architects.
Under the provisions of an act of the
last Legislature, known as the crippled
children s law, provisions have been
made for the treatment of certain cases
at. the University Medical School.
Necessity for Conserving Nation's
Foodstnffii Bring Driven Home by
Battery of 12 Speakers.
The Four-Minute Men of Portland
this week are talking food conserva
tion to the night theater crowds. In
the four minutes allotted them at each
theater the speakers are driving home
the tremendous importance of the food
conservation movement. J. V. Ohmart,
speaking at the Sunset Theater, im
pressed the audiences with figures, say
ing: "The governments of France and
England have been compelled to re
duce the allowance of sugar to each
person to less than one ounce per day;
the present normal consumption in the
United States is about four ounces per
capita. France recently made an ap
peal to the United States for 100,000
tons of sugar for delivery within a
month, but our home consumption will
require the available supply at the rate
we are going. If each individual would
reduce his consumption of sugar, say
one ounce per day. we could save 100,
000 tons per month. This figuring can
be applied to the other foodstuffs that
are needed abroad."
Judge Dayton, at the Liberty Theater,
put it squarely up to the public whether
they would accept food conservation
voluntarily or have it a matter of dras
tic regulation.
G. L. Rauch told the Columbia The
ater audience it was a case of submit
ting or resisting. "No one here who
realizes the result of. resisting food
conservation will resist."
The following speakers are address
ing the theater crowds this week:
Arthur C. Dayton, Liberty; Gus C.
Moser, G. L. Rauch, Columbia; W. A.
Burke, M. Mosessohn, Peoples; Frank T.
Collier, Strand; A. A. Bailey, Circle;
William B. Layton, B. J. Skulason, Star;

FISH MARKET IS BACKED
Food Administration to Take Hand
in Suit Started by Dealers.
The United States food administra

A big time feature act called "Sleigh
bells" tops the Hippodrome bill this
week-end, with Mark Ellison and his
company as sponsors. The act is
unique in its theme and treatment, and
is in the form of a playlet, scenes of
which are laid in a realistic Chinese
opium den, located in Chicago. A
prominent Chicagoan, by the way,
James Brennan, whose histrionic abil
ity has made his name known in the
theatrical world, plays an important
role in the headline act. He appears
as the wily Chinese denkeeper, a role
he invests with, dramatic finesse. It is
six years since Mr. Brennan appeared
here,- as the baritone lead in "The

has been made to city officials by the

. The strike was threatened because
of the fact that some non-union labor

said a vote was taken and the steel
workers refused to strike. As a result
the company has given the unions per
mission to try to organize the non
union laborers on the work, it is understood.
Another Page In Romantic Story of
Wealthy 77-Year-6ld Bride
Is Written.
t Another page in the romantic story
of Mrs. Sarah Dodson-Broadback.
77-year-old bride of 45-year-old Will
iam Broadback, was written yesterday
when County Judge Tazwell denied her
petition for the removal of Charles E.
McCullough. an attorney, as guardian
of her person and estate. The court
held that Mrs. Broadback's physical and
mental condition was such as to neces
sitate the care of a guardian of her
property, valued at 60.000.
Mrs. Broadback first came into public
notice last Spring when court proceed
ings showed an alleged attempt on the
part of Broadback to secure control or
her little fortune. At that time Broad
back was employed by her as a farm
hand. She was tried before an insanity
commission but was liberated after
Judge Tazwell had appointed Mr. Mc
Cullough as her guardian. District
court proceedings at that time showed
that Broadback was planning to marry
her, but a thorough airing of the
strange romance precluded any attempt
to tie the nuptial knot.
Three months ago Broadback and
Mrs. Dodson slipped away to Vancouver
and got married, without the knowledge
or consent of her guardian.
Since her marriage to Broadback.

Effort to Accommodate.
Portland banks that can meet the
requests or their customers for cod
per cents nowadays are among the
lununsie, ior some of them are re
porting their Inability to do so. De
mand for the copper pieces to facili
tate change-making is growing
stronger ana additional supplies are
hard to get.
One downtown bank sent to the mint
a request for one-cent pieces to the
value of $1000. and was advised in re
ply tnat there could be shipped only
$50 worth daily, for. although the
mints are running 24 hours to turn
out the cent pieces, they are behind
orders lor them.
Banks of the city are unable to sun
ply out-of-town banks with supplies
"t coppers, although they are clamor
ing for them.
It is believed that some merchants
are hoarding copper cents for use in
their own business, and on this ac
count the shortage Is made worse than
it would otherwise be. Bankers say it
is a patriotic duty for all persons
having 1-cent pieces to exchange them
at the banks for coins of higher denominations.

"Blue" Spells Likely
Mean Bad Kidneys
If you are nervous, cross and "blue" all the time,
there is surely some cause for it.
The strain of family worries and housework often
causes kidney troubles, and when the kidneys are weak,
the nerves are easily affected.
Women who are tired and half-sick, who have back
ache, neuralgia, headache, di:ry spells, rheumatic pains
and disorders of the kidneys and bladder, should use
Doan's Kidneg Pills. Thousands of women praise them
for quick relief from just such trouble.
These Portland Women Speak:
Mrs. M. C. Bachrodt. 241
Fargo St., says: "I know
Doan's . Kidney Pills can be
depended upon because of
what they have done for me.
Some years ago kidney
trouble had an awful hold
on me. I felt lame and stiff
all over and a steady ache
in the small of my back
seemed to take all my
strength. I began using
Doan's Kidney Pills and they
were just what I needed. In
a short time they had rid me
of my kidney trouble and
put me in good health. Since
thenI have kept my kidneys
in good shape by using a
few Doan's occasionally."
Mrs. E. J. Reynolds, 982
Cleveland Ave., says: "I
was feeling miserable with
kidney trouble. Sly back, from
my hips to my shoulders,
ached as though it were
broken. . My sight was af
fected and I often had ner
vous, dizzy spells. Specks
seemed to float before my
eyes and everything would
blur before me. My kidneys
were weak and bothered me
too. A friend recommended
Doan's Kidney Pills and I
used them. They soon put
my kidneys in good shape
and my health improved."
