Judse Butler, The Dalles, Would Attend Republican Conven tion in Chicago. c 3 THE MORXIXG OTiEGOXIAX, TUESDAY. A PR IE -1.?. 1920 UPON wn REQUES jirst SALEM, Or., April 12. (Special.) William Howard Tart, in a telegram received at the offices of the secre tary of state here today, requested that his name not be placed on the republican primary ballot for presi dent of the United States. Petitions now are in circulation for Mr. Taft, and should his supporters insist that he be listed among the candidates at the primary election it will be incumbent upon the secretary of state to place his name on the ballot. A ruling to this effect was! given by the Oregon supreme court' in 1916, when Charles Evans Hughes requested that his name be kept off the ballot. The Hughes petitions contained more than 1000 signatures. Mr. Taft sent his telegram to the secretary of state from Natchito ches, La. At the time Mr. Hughes requested that his name be withdrawn from the Oregon primary ballot the supreme court held that a "candidate" is not considered as "one who seeks or runs for office" and that it was the duty of the secretary of state to place his name before the voters if the required number of electors made such a de mand. The opinion was written by Justice McBride. Petition Will Not Be Filed. The suit to have Mr. Hughes' name withdrawn was filcl by Wallace McCamant, of Portland. Although 3000 names have been se cured to place the name of William Howard Taft on the republican presi dential preferential primary ballot, the petition will not be filed. Charles W. Ackerson, who was directing the circulation of the petition, learned yesterday that Mr. Taft had tele graphed the secretary of state to the effect that he does not want fiis name on the ballot, as he is not a candi date. "I'm sorry about this." declared Mr. Ackerson last night, "for there is a great deal of Taft sentiment in Ore MOn. The fact that we were able to Bather 3000 names and I mean that we actually obtained them is a pretty good test, particularly in view of the fact that it lias been hard ledding for some avowed candidates to fill their petition. However, Mr. Taft's wishes will be respected. I believe that if Mr. Taft permitted his name to remain, he would carry the etate. There were some good, live Taft clubs organized and the petition received support from some of the leading republicans in Marion, Polk, Yamhill and Multnomah counties. "I wish to thank the individuals who so kindly circulated the petition, for all of the work was volunteer and no one paid a nickel in our campaign for Mr. Taft." Arkrrnon Originates! Itoom. The Taft boom originated with Mr. Ackerson, who in 1912 was bitterly opposing him in Chicago. Mr. Acker son bolted with Theodore Roosevelt when the "bull moose" party was or ganized. There is nothing to prevent Mr. Ackerson from filing the petition and placing the name of Mr. Taft on the ballot, but he docs not intend follow ing the precedent established by the boosters of Mr. Hughes in 1916. JUDGE BUTI.KR IS CANDIDATE ( The Dalles Republican Would At lond. Convention. Judrc n. R. Butler of The Dalles vrslerday announced his intention of brintr a candidate for delegate to the republican national convention. Judge Butler ill run for delegate at large. Twice Judge Butler has been a re publican presidential elector once in the Taft campaign and once in the Hughes cainpaifrn. He has been -chairman of the Gilliam county republican committee and has Ferved in the ftate senate. Judge Butler for the past 14 years has been taking an active part in the republican campaigns. In announcing his candidacy. Judge Butler makes the following state ment: ' "I believe that a return to repub licanism will mean a restoration of peace and prosperity at home and a settlement of troubles nnd difficulties abroad. I'nder republican rule we never have seen such troubles as we are now suffering from. And when the republican party comes into pow er, as surely it will, I believe these things will cease. I am for the nominee" of the republican convention at Chicago, whomsoever he may be." DEMOCRATIC TICK-ET BLANK lelcgates Likely to Go Construct ed to Convention. With but two days more in which to file for th presidential primaries, the democratic aspirants have done nothing. The republican ballot will have several names, but the democra tic ballot will, apparently, be a blank, , unless James W. Gerard, Attorneyr ) General Palmer or someone else makes a last hour filing. George I.ovejoy, who circulated a petition for William G. McAdoo, placed it In cold storage when Mr. McAdoo said he did not want his'name on any ballot but preferred an unlnstructed delegation. The report in the democratic party wing .represented by Mr. Lovejoy is to the effect that the Newton McCoy petition for Mr. McAdoo fell down, so with Mr. McAdoo eliminating himself and Oswald West's democratic peti tion for Herbert Hoover spurned by no less a personage than Mr. Hoover himself, the democratic delegation to the national convention is likely to go foot-loose and care-free, as all demo crats like to be.

Foley's Honey and Tar gives quick relief in all cases. T. J. McCall, Athens, O., writes: "We used Foley's Honey and Tar in our home for several years and find it almost invaluable for the cure of coughs and colds, and espe cially for croup with our children.' Sold everywhere. Adv. NO fat excels Mazola for deep frying. It is far better and a great deal more economical than lard or compounds. 'The same lot of Mazola can be used over and over again even after frying fish and onions. Merely straining makes it perfectly fresh for use as a shortening. It carries no odors or flavors from the foods cooked in it and does not cmoke up your kitchen. - 12 THE purity and richness of Mazola best demon strates itself in the fact that A to less Mazola is required , than that of butter or lard.
