IS
AS CITIZEN LEADER
Montaville Flowers Likens
Strength to Roosevelt.
LEAGUE VIEWS STABLE
Senator Johnson Held Not Repre
sentative of Party or Nation.
Some Slogans Scored.
Leonard Wood, soldier and states
man, republican candidate for the
presidency, was portrayed to Port
land voters last night at the audito
rium, by Montaville Flowers of Cali
fornia, as a citizen leader of strength
identical with that which found ex
pression in the public service of Theo
dore Roosevelt.
"On the league of nations," said
Mr. Flowers, "Leonard Wood occupies
the exact position of Theodore Roose
velt. He states the exact position of
the mass of the republican party, of
Root, of Taft, of Lodge, and agrees
with the great masses of the Ameri
can people.
"Thus he maintains the faith that
man under the providence of God has
not come so far up into civilization of
the world, only to fail and fall in the
processes of making and maintaining
peace. Hi position will be the posi
tion that the republican party will
assume a the convention in June,
upon which it will stand throughout
the campaign.
Johnson Sot Representative
"Senator Johnson docs not represent
the republican party or the nation in
his ultra position and if he be nomi
nated he must either reverse his po
sition, by which he will stultify him
self before the nation, or he will carry
the republican party down with him.
You republicans of Oregon, so far as
"lies within your power, will take your
position tomorrow and the whole na
tion waits upon your sincerity and
your sound judgment to give an over
whelming vote for General Wood.
"During the past few .years at
Washington the administration has
frequently functioned in the wrong
direction, or did not function at all.
But it is to be remembered that when
ever we have needed a great man
in a great crisis, such as confronts
this nation today, providence sees to
it that the man is ready for the times.
There were Washington, Lincoln and
Roosevelt.
"The man for the present and for
the guidance of America up from the
depths of distraction is now ready.
The people of Oregon must call to
him, and his name is Leonard Wood.
He is so deeply an American in his
nature and his ancestry that he is
the full definition of the term Ameri
can. Slogans Sometimes Mislead.
"You have heard the slogan, We
don't want a military man for presi
dent and I wish to say to you that
a political slogan is contrived for
the sole purpose of stopping the aver
age person from thinking.
"There isn't an American here to
right who believes that there is any
chance of having militarism in this
country. As applied to Leonard Wood
this opposition slogan is a false and
far cry. Do you not recall his state
ment on universal military training.
He said: U am perfectly willing to
leave the subject of military training
and preparation wholly to the people
of the nation.' "
Nevertheless, Indicated Mr. Flow
ers, General Wood is no advocate of
the shiftless programme such as sent
American boys .to France unprepared
for actual combat, and believes that
the' matter of military training should
be passed upon by the dictum of the
American Legion comprising those
same soldiers who returned from
overseas.
"If there ever was a time in Ameri
can history whn we needed a man
like Theodore Roosevelt," asserted
Mr. Flowers, "that time is now and
that man is Leonard Wood. I tell
you, when Leonard Wood becomes
president, America will have one of
the greatest revelations of profound
character in all her history."
Career Remarkable One.
Speaking of General Wood's admin
istration in Cuba, as governor-general,
the speaker asserted that such
was the volume of his experience
that he has a record of. more admin
istrative and business achievement
than all other presidential candidates
combined. He. traced the rise of
General Wood, from boyhood along
the path of earnest, self -aiding
achievement, to the point where he
stands as the logical republican can
didate for the presidency.
Judge Wallace AleCamant, candi
date for republican delegate-at-large,
presided as chairman and paid a pref
atory tribute to General Wood.

association, and officers of 16 striking
railroad unions.
The statement said it would only

plied with the law. The petitions

dice and with their seniority unim
paired."
The petition was signed by officers
of he yardmen's and enginemen's as
sociations in 16 cities.

been rejected the board took up the
suggestion made by K. T. Whiter, rep

in the cost of living be devised for
the railway employes, who have asked
wage increases totaling approxi
mately $1,000,000,000.

DECISION" IS GIVEX BARCT
Portland Fighter . Crowds Negro
Opponent to Defeat.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 20. (Spe
cial.) Jimmy Darcy of Portland came
fast enough tonight at the Coliseum
in the last two rounds of his bout
with Lee Anderson to entitle him to
the decision.' It was no fluke. Just
a case of crowding the colored man
until he had him beaten. All of which
must be consoling to unboat Smith
who a week ago hot-footed It away
from the same Anderson as fast as his
legs would carry him. Darcy was en
titled to the verdict.
Willie Hunefeld knew altogether
too much for Earl Toung and Referee
Toby Irwin stopped the fight in the
second with Young almost knocked
out. Benny McCoy won from Georgie
Spencer. Bert Colima won on a foul
from Joe Ferro in the second. Willie
Robinson beat Al Grunan in the
fourth, the fight being stonoed
Mickey Drexel beat Johnny Bell in the
third. Artie Rose won from Renard.
FCITOX'S PAST NOT HEROIC
Fighter, Self-Styled Faker, Is Com
ing Back Strong, Making Good.
Fred Fulton s past was not what
a correct historian would outline as
heroic.
Most of those who followed his for
tunes whispered "yellow" and tTulton
called himself a faker.
But with so many of the other
heavy-weight stars indulging them
selves so jauntily in moving: picture
and theatrical life, Fulton has been
fighting. He took a fresh start in
his profession and filled in the sap
left by those higher up higher up
in a championship way.
A man's past may frequently haunt
him, but it can't overshadow the
proper sort of present and future.
Fulton of late has been making
good. He may yet show from Just
how far back one can come who se
lects the correct highway.

in view of its agreement with Persia
which -was concluded last year.
The Times sharply attacks the
British government because, of its
past attitude toward Persia.
"The Persian issue," it adds, "can
not be considered apart from that of
Mesopotamia. We are not prepared
to assent to any arrangement which
would saddle on British taxpayers the
cost of holding Mesopotamia as far
north as Mosul. If we sink oil wells
there, they will have to be surrounded
by legions. We do not now desire
to express a definite view about the
sordid squabbles relative to Mesopo
tamian oil which seem to be develop
ing between various British, Dutch,
American and German interests, but
whoever gets the oil must pay the
bill. This country will not consent
to maintain a big garrison in Mesopo
tamia for the benefit of partially
foreign oil companies."
