OFFICERS' TRAINING CAJIF, Pre
sidio of San Francisco, Nov. 21. (Spe
cial.) While the infantrymert -are in
the trenches this week for- their final
training before graduating, the effi
ciency board is busy slaving -away at
the Presidio headquarters making: final
selections of the officers to be com
missioned out of the second camp con
ducted on "the Pacific Coast.
One thing- sure, it is groins; to be a.
difficult feat for any man to land a
Captaincy or Majority in the second
camp. The Government's maximum al
lotment for the entire infantry oamp
this time is only 40 Captains, so this
means only four and a fraction to each
company.
Klrat Lieutenancies Many
There will be more First Lieutenants
than any other grade, owlngr to the fact
that the new company of 258 men. now
is used in the American Army, and
officers number one' Captain, three
First Lieutenants and two Second Lieu
tenants. Hundreds of First Lieuten
ants graduated from the first camp
are to be boosted into Captaincies,, too, .
and this creates more vacancies among
th First Lieutenants.
Numerous men from 26 to 30 won
Captaincy commissions In the first
camp, but it vill almost be necessary1
to wear chin whiskers and be a mem
ber of the "45 Efficiency" Club to win
the double bar straps when the second
batch of commissions are plucked from
the tree late this week or early next.
During the past ten days the camp
has been overrun with specialty Ma
jors and Colonels endeavoring to entice
away from the line men suitable- for
such specialties as Signal Corps work,
both construction and aviation, and
other branches calling for skilled labor.
As the graduates of the training camps
are already steeped in military disci
pline, they are highly desirable addi
tions to the specialty ranks. '
Some Wear New Vnlforms.
The commissioning of many of the
erstwhile students in aviation and the
like stirred up some excitement for a
few days. Most of those commissioned
appeared back at barracks a day or
two later decked out In new uniforms
to be saluted by their former school
mates. Now that the first thrills have passed,
the interest again centers in the activ
ities of the efficiency boards. Theirs
is the task of comparing the men in
their commands as to military aptitude,
personality, physical perfection and
general value to the service.
The efficiency boards, review the
records the men have made in camp,
take into consideration the Jobs they
held before they came to camp &nd
weigh carefully the recommendations
that led to their appointment. When
the personnel of each company has
been considered there will bg a gen
eral meeting to apportion the commis
sions. And after that has been done
and the representative of the Adjutant
General has arrived. Colonel Farr will
make his recommendations.

news and editorial comment indorsing
his candidacy. ,
That the sentiment of the voters of
the state regarding the Umatilla Coun
ty man might accurately be deter
mined, a copy of the Standard was
mailed to every Republican voter In the
state. Responsive to this Mr. Stanfield
received several hundred letters from
Republicans representing every county
in the state. The great majority of
these letters strongly indorsed Mr.
Stanfield for Senator and insisted that
he become a candidate, the writers uni
formly pledging him thflr loyal and
enthusiastic support.
Based on this expression from the
voters, combined with a desire further
to serve his native state, Mr. Stanfield
yesterday reached his decision. He is
planning a vigorous campaign, which,
however, will probably not assume
active proportions, before the first of
the year. In the meantime, Mr. Stan
field expects to arrange his business
affairs so that he' can give most of his
time to directing personally and par
ticipating actively in the campaign.
Candidate Vativa Orrjronlan.
Mr. Stanfield is a native Oregonian,
aged 40 years. Ha was born at Um-
4illa. Umatilla Countv. of Dlnnmr Bar
ents, who came overland to Oregon by
the Oregon, trail in 184S. At the age
of 19 years, upon tho death of his
father, "Bob," as he is best known to
his friends, succeeded to the manage
ment of the small stock business which
the elder Stanfield had been conduct
ing and also assumed the responsibility
of maintaining the 'family, consisting
of his mother and 11 children, includ
ing , himself, some older and some
younger than he.
In the 21 years that followed Mr.
Stanfield experienced a number of lean
nl unprofitable years in the- .stock
business, but -he knew no disappoint
ment. Instead of becoming discouraged,
he redoubled his efforts, and, by the
application of industry, coupled with
an intimate knowledge of the business,
acquired through- experience, he perse
vered, making a success of the livestock
business.
Altiough the requirements of his
private business demanded his atten
tion, he found time to take an interest
in politics. For six years he served his
district as a member of the House of
Representatives in the Oregon Legisla
ture, being elected Speaker at the 1917
session.

t? in against the Bol.sheviki.

streets of the Russian capital bearing
banners with inscriptions such as "We
want no separate peace." "Down with
Pefrograd'a domination by a minority
party tyranny" and "Nicholas" regime
was never so tyrannic as the Bolshe
vik! regime."
The central committee on the antl
Bolshevik Socialist coalition has passed
a resolution demanding liberty of the
press, the dismissal of the Red Guard
and the immediate cessation of fratri
cidal war. Maxim Gorkv's paper and

ceived today said General Kaledines,
with an army of Cossacks, was moving
against Moscow, where 8000 persons
were reported to have been killed in
riots. The State Department has no
official information to confirm the re
ports. The Russian Maximalist group has
declared Russia out of the war, accord
ing to information from German and
Scandinavian sources. A dispatch to
Copenhagen from Berlin says that the
belief is held in German sources that
the prospects for a "peace of concilia
tion" are far better than previously.

dissolved iry the revolutionary war
committee. Mayor Roudeneff. of Mos
cow, is reported to be in hiding to es
cape threatened arrest.

istence of two central committees, each
claiming authority as the duly consti
tuted body and denying the rights of
the other.

ing to "the wealthy classes and their
servitors," whom the extremists accuse
of inciting strikes in the state and
municipal services. The warning says:

that is threatening the country and the
army. You will be deprived of the
right of receiving products. All your
stores will be requisitioned and your
property confiscated."

The Bolshevik! leaders are holding
out to their supporters the hope that
the proletariat of other countries will
start sympathetic revolutions on the
Russian model. Thus their decree
says:
"The German and Austrian Socialists
hail the Bolshevik revolution. The
French Socialists greet the Bolshevik
in their newspapers."
A number of anarchist newspapers In
Petrograd are now openly urging the
abolition of all authority of any kind.

KALEDINES SAID TO BE BOLD
Members of Russian Mission Here
Have Confidence in General.
An Intrepid leader, who commands
the respect and devotion of his men, is
the character ascribed to General Kale
dines, mentioned in dispatches as a new
factor in the Russian situation by mem
bers of the Russian Embassy mission,
who were In Portland on Tuesday.
Kaledines is said to be preparing a
counter-revolutionary movement at the
head of Cossack troops and has been
credited with designs to ra-estabiish
monarchical government in Russia.
That this latter is true is scouted by
members of the Russian Embassy mis
sion, and they expressed confidence
that his participation meant aid to the
restoration of the provisional govern
ment and the prosecution of the war. .
Lieutenant-Commander Basil H"ws
chlnsky, of the party, lifter reading
newspaper accounts of Kaledines' ac
tivity, was manifestly delighted.
"I wish to call your attention to the
name Kaledines," he said. "He is a
Cossack and a hetman of Cossacks. I
know this man. I had the honor to
fight under him. I am sure that he
will be in Petrograd soon, and If he
is, you may be certain that order will
be restored." - ,
In this opinion A. J. Ssrtk. director of
the Russian bureau of information In
the Umied States, at once concurred.
