TIIE MORNING OltEGONIAN, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1919. DELEGATION PUCES EYED BY REPUBLICANS J3Iany Aspire to Attend National Convention in 1920. DEMOCRATIC CAMP SILENT Charles E. Cochran and Arthur C. ; Spencer ol Portland Admit De V sire to Go East for G. O. P. Delegates to the republican and dem ocratic conventions will be elected at the primaries next spring. Thus far mo particular interest has been taken in the democratic camp and there has been only a casual rumor or two in the republican ranks. Charles E. Cochran of Portland would like to be a delegate to the republican convention, if things work around right, and Arthur C. Spencer admits that he would like to go, but does not know whether he will be a candidate. David M. Dunne is desirous of attend ing the big show and there is gossip that George J. Cameron would not be averse to going, and the same gossip mentions the name of Judge Carey. All of those mentioned are from Multno mah county, but Mr. Cameron and Mr. Carey might run as delegates at large. Delegates to Pay Otth Way. ' Russell Hawkins of Tillamook will probably be a candidate either as a del egate from the first congressional dis trict or from the state at large. Roy W. Ritner of Umatilla is also consider ing the situation and if he does not run as a delegate from the third congres sional district he will seek one of the places as a delegate at large. Walter L. Tooze Jr. has an eye on the first district -position. Daniel Boyd of En terprise, Wallowa county, is expected to be a candidate at large. He was elect ed three years ago. Delegates must defray their own ex penses, and a trip to a nationalcon vention for a man from the Pacific coast costs about as much as a low priced automobile. Presidential Situation Hazy. One reason why there is a hesitancy about announcements for delegates is the hazy situation regarding the presi dential candidates. By the time the primaries are held the presidential sit uation will probably be shaped up suf ficiently to give some indication as to the probable candidates. The presiden tial aspirant who appears to be the most popular with the votors of Oregon will be used by some candidates for delegates to win votes. Democrats are worse off than the republicans at this period, for they are In the position to say that Wilson will not be a candidate, but they fear he will be. It will be possible to gather up a sufficient delegation from Oregon for the democratic national convention, provided federal office holders are not barred.

Miller, collector, were delving with shovels in the earthen floor of the same cellar. The reason was simple they were searching for a still. Toward the front of the dwelling the ceiling was low and by the light of an electric torch the men could see that the dirt in this shallow, part was much disturbed. Two huskies crawled in with shovels and began to dig, within a few seconds striking wood. Just behind them, much agitated, stood an Italian, the owner of the. house. "This-a private prop! This you no take, you no take," he pleaded. But the shovels went deeper and deeper, disclosing a small, wooden box instead of the anticipated still. The officers brought their find to light and removed the top. Inside re posed a two-quart glass fruit jar, into which had been thrust a cloth wadded up so as to conceal the con tents. When drawn aside the officers ?azed in astonishment on a collection of gold coins, between $1200 and $2000 worth. The excited Italian was waiting to claim his property, quite the reverse of his attitude when the 12 barrels of wine left his home. He explained that the fortune was not his own, but that it "belonged to George" and had been put in the basement for safe keeping.

Conference Speaker Contends Bol- slieviki First Encountered In Days of Abraham. There is no Christian nation on earth. This is not a Christian nation, and one doesn't have to live long in Wash ington, D. C, to learn that. Such was the declaration of Dr. Henry Ostrom of the Moody Bible institute of Chicago in his address. The Church and the Kingdom," delivered at the White Temple yesterday afternoon as a feature of the conference on Christian fundamentals now being held in the White Temple and the Sunnyside Con gregational churches. The conference, which is being held under the direction of some of the leading divines of the country, is more than nation wide in its scope and is an interdenominational movement. The gathering here is one of numerous similar ones being held all over the country. Bolshevik! Old Species. The bolshevik is-cot a new type, ac cording to Dr. Ostrom. The world was full of bolsheviks, he declared, when the Lord picked out Abraham to raise a race of anti-bolsheviks. "We gentiles had our chance." he said, "and when the Lord saw how we were getting along he chose Abraham. "We gentiles are bold and we rush in and say it is all ours and sing 'Marching to Zion.' " continued Dr. Os trom. "We will do well, on the con trary, if we march to Portland." The devil isn't such a hard-worked individual as people might think, ac cording to Dr. Ostrom. He doesn't have to work much to get people to steal or to commit some crime or to be drawn into immorality. "That's not hard for the devil," said tie, because the sin is born in us." Dr. Ostrom said that the great effort of the devil was in confusing the peo ple s Deiiers. Dr. William L.

N Y., and during the last eight years has been the successor of the celebrated Charles H. Spurgeon. Besides the address of Dr. Dixon there will be anotl-er at this afternoon's session at the White Temple by Dr. Fettlngill on "Why Study Prophetic Scriptures?" At the evening session at the White Temple Dr. Pettlngill will speak from 'he subject "The Mod ern Liberal Religion.

In addition to the conference in Port land, speakers here are scheduled to speak at similar conferences at Salem, Albany, Ashland and later at San Fran cisco. Dr. Ostrom left last night for Salem. The purpose of the conference on Christian fundamentals now being held r.ll over the United States and Canada was declared yesterday by Dr. Ostrom to be contained in the following quo tation: "Following the Fleming of the armis tice, we think there is nothing so im portant as that we shall get the pecple to the Bible, to the Bible, mind you. rather than to organization and team v ork."
