of "Retarding Progress."
BISMARCK, N. D., Feb. S7. Resolu
tions requesting all prospective can
didates for the presidency to file for
the primary election in North Dakota,
March 1, and indorsing the candidacy
of Senator Johnson of California, were
adopted here today at a meeting of
the republican state central commit
tee, called by Chairman William
Lemke of Fargo. i
In adopting the resolutions, the
committeemen denounced action taken
by a convention of republicans here
February 17 in urging presidential
candidates not to file petitions for
the primary. The February 17 meet
ing was called by six members of the
state central committee, opposed to
the Non-Partisan league, who did not
attend today's gathering. The meet
lng today also indorsed a ticket for
the March primary, including candi
dates for national committeemen,
presidential electors and national
convention delegates. The list was
identical with one reported from
meeting of 100 "progressive repub
licans' at Hllboro, February 20.
Chairman Score "Clique."
In opening the meeting today Mr.
Lemke declared it had been called in
'obedience to the will of the major
ity err the republicans of the state.'
He said a "clique of ex-senators, ex-
representatives, ex-judges and all the
other ex's who have been discarded
by the people have tried to usurp the
powers and functions of the state
central committee," and urged "re
sentment of that lawless element.
We are not here," he concluded, "to
continue or divide the bitter feeling
men has raged in this state, but
rather to cement relations."
Bryan Petition Withdrawn.
A petition to place the name of
William Jennings Bryan on the bal
lot as candidate for presidential in

crats at the March primary was with-

Marshal's Office Gives Warning
Against Building Big Fires
During High Winds.
Fire caused by sparks from a chim
ney late yesterday almost destroyed
a house occupied by A. E. W. Peter
son, 100S Baleigh street, with a loss
of about i000 to the building and
contents. The place is owned by the
James S. Fordyce estate.
The fire was discovered by firemen
from engine company No. 26, who
were in the neighborhood combatting
three other roof fires. The whole roof
of the Peterson home was in flamesJ
before the blase was discovered. Fire
men estimated the loss as $5000 to
the building and J4000 to the furnish
tngs. The blase was one of 19 for
which the fire bureau was called out
yesterday. All were roof fires, caused
by sparks flying before the high
wind.
Captain Day of the fire marshal's
office last night issued a warning to
householders against building big
fires during the high spring winds.
Captain Day also issued a request
that persons discovering chimney
fires telephone the alarm to fire
headquarters instead of turning in an
alarm from a fire box. The latter
alarm calls out several fire companies.
while a single company is sufficient
to combat a chimney fire.

AXT ENTER OHIO RACE
Four Republicans and Three Dem
ocrats Are In Primary.
COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 27. Entries in
Ohio's presidential preference pri
mary closed today with four avowed
republican candidates and three
democrats in the race. The republi
can candidates are United States Sen
ator Warren G. Harding of Ohio;
Major-General Leonard Wood; James
R. Garfield, Ohio, and Louis A. Baird
of Washington, D. C. -
The democratic candidates are Gov
ernor J. M. Cox, former Governor J. E.
Campbell and James O. Munroe. of
inicago. f
These lists, however, are expected
to be narrowed down to two re
publicans, Harding and Wood, and
one democrat, Governor Cox.
James R. Garfield is expected to
withdraw, his candidacy being only a
rormaiuy in order to give candidates
for Wood delegates a chance to ex
press theif second choice. The same
Is true of'James E. Campbell. Both
Baird and Monroe probably will be
ruled off inasmuch as their declara
tions of candidacy are not certified
by five voters as required.
Governor Cox is assured of Ohio's
solid delegation of 48. votes at the
San Francisco convention.
Old Officials, With 4 Exceptions
Will Resume Places When
Lines Are Returned.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 27. William
Sproule, district director of railroads
under the federal administration,
again will aot as president of the
Southern Pacif lo railway system when
the lines are returned to private oper
ation Monday, and the general officials,
with four exceptions, will resume the
nositlons held prior to federal con
trol, according to announcement here
tonight.
Announcement came from head
quarters of the Southern Pacific lines
in San Francisco yesterday of the
management personnel which will be
in charge of this road's affairs when
it reverts to private ownership. The
list of officers, from President Sproule
down, varies little from what it waa
before the government took over the
railroads.
One of the few important changes
in which Portland is interested is the
withdrawal of W. R. Scott, formerly
vice-president and federal manager
under government control, to "accept
other service of great responsibility.
Mr. Scott visited Portland quite re
cently.
F. L. Burckhalter, appointed assist
ant general manager of the northern
district, will have charge of operation
of the Oregon lines of the company.
Except for the advancement of J.
A Ormandy from the post of chief
clerk to that of assistant general pas
senger agent, already announced, the
old officers of the Southern Pacific in
Portland will resume their posts
again. The officers here will be: H.
A Hinshaw, general freight agent;
W. F. Miller, assistant general freight
agent; J. M. Scott, general passenger
agent; J. A. Ormandy, assistant gen
eral passenger agent.
Announcement of city and traveling
agents of the road will be made in a
few days, it was stated last night.
The announcement of appointment of
H. D. Morse as district freight an
passenger agent at Eugene was given
out.

Condemnation of "The Tong Man,
a Sessue Hayakawa film booked by
the Hippodrome for early showing
and already well advertised, was
voted yesterday afternoon by four
members, constituting a majority of
the board of censors.
The picture, will not be shown in
Portland. Fear that Its exhibition
might give rise to a tong war and
the declaration that it is not a true
picture of Chinese life, led W. W.
Banks, attorney for the Chinese peace
society, to ask an appeal viewing of
the production. The picture had
previously been viewed by Mrs. A I.
Coffman, acting for the censor board.
and a permit issued. On the strength
of the permit, the picture was sold
by its releasers, Robertson & Cole,
to the Hippodrome company which,
through its agent, Ben Ely, placed on
deposit $500. Ely claims that his
J500 will be lost if the picture Is not
shown and that he has alreadyex
pended from 1175 to $200 for its exploitation.
Evans Urges Condemnation.
Walter Evans, district attorney,
nrged the condemnation of the film
and later assured Mr. Ely that while
he had no agreement with the Chi
nese interested in suppressing the
picture he knew that they would
make good the money spent In ad
vertising and that in case the Chi
nese should fail to do so he per
sonally would see that the Hippo

The entire vocal performance evi
