ADAMS PROBABLY
E.J.
IS ELECTED DELEGATE
Practically Complete Count
Gives 245 Lead.
SECOND DISTRICT CLOSE
McCamant, Carey, Rand and Alson
Appear Winners From
State at JLarge. v '
. i
E. J. Adams of Lane county prob
ably has been elected delegate to the
republioen national convention from
the first congressional district. Prac
tically complete and official returns
compijed by The Oregonian yester
day give Adams a lead of 245 over
Dr. Joel Booth of Linn- county, who
in the earlier count overcame a sub
stantial lead of Franlc T. Wrightman
of Marion county, and until yester
day seemed assured of election. Wal-
ter L. Tooze Jr. is safely elected as
cne of the' two delegates from this
district, leading the other contestants
with a vote of S4..373. The- official
count may be required to determine
whether Adams or Booth has been
elected as the colleague of Tooze.
The vote on the five candidates for
delegate from this district, according
to The Oregonian's tabulation, was:
Tooze,. 24,373; Adams, 18,304; Booth,
18,059; Wrightman, 17,623; Kendall,
13,781.
Second DfMtrict Uncertain.
It is possible the official count may
be necessary to determine whether
1). J. Cooper or M. Z. Donnell has won
as one of the two delegates from the I
second congressional district. With I
returns misting from Gilliam, Har
ney, Lake and Malheur, and partial I
returns from Grant, Cooper is lead
ing Donnell by only 71 votes. W. H.
Brooke, of Malheur county, was safely
elected as indicated by the earlier
returns. The vote on the four candi
dates in this district was: Brooke,
8526; Cooper, 6059; Donnell, 5988;
Curl, 44S2.
With figures lacking from Gilliam,
Harney and Malheur and only incom
plete figures for Grant county, Wal
lace McCamant. Charles -H. Carey,
John I,. Rand and Conrad P. Olson
undoubtedly have been elected dele
gates at large to the republican con
vention. Sanfield MacDonald is run
ning fifth .and is 872 votes behind
Olsen.
Change 3iot Anticipated.
The relative standing of these two
candidates will not be materially af
fected by the returns from the miss
ing counties since each is about equal
ly known in that section of the state.
The only ..other candidate likely to
gain by the complete returns from
east of the mountains is Daniel Boyd,
who is 1859 votes behind Olson. It is
generally conceded that neither Mac
Donald nor Boyd can overcome Ol
son's lead. The vote now stands: Mc
Camant, 37,700.; Carey, 35.606; Rand,
3.066; Olson. 30,902; MacDonald,
30.130; Boyd. 29,043.
The county clerk's office yesterday
completed the official count for Mult
nomah county on delegates at large
and for delegates from the third con
gressional district. In this county

gates at large were McCamant, Olson,

"Excoeed" rang out the official

It was spelled correctly. But "the
judge thought he had heard "excede"

Finally time was called.
"Let's have some more." shrilled

so proud. And it finished at that.

Former Aide "Proud to Have
Xame Linked With Names
of Chiefs."
WASHINGTON, May 27 The sen
ate investigation of the navy's corv
duct of the war was completed today
and Chairman Hale said he hoped to
have ready within a week a report
embodying the committee's findings.
Rear-Admiral Sims was the only
witness today, but the chairman read
into the record supplementary state
ments from Rear-Admiral Fullam and
Fiske replying to portions of the tes
timony of Secretary Daniels. Admiral
Fiske reviewed his efforts to obtain
reorganization of the department when
ne was at eve for speratlons, and de
clared that but for his efforts the
navy would have entered the war
without the two principal agencies
the secretary and his advisers de
clared to be -vital the office of chief
of naval operations . and the ad
ministrative plan.
Instead of abusinrr me. Admiral
Fiske said, "I submit that the secre
tary ought to thank me for saving
not only the navy, but himself.
FrosHlantam Charge Denied.
Admiral Fullam denied statements
by Mr. Daniels to the effect that he
was a "disciple of Von Tirpitz." and
wished to Prussianize the navy."
He declared that he had devoted his
life to the problem of organization
and preparedness, and that he was
proud to have my name linked with
the names of Sims and Fiske."
Admiral Sims testified Secretary
Daniels had attempted to "gloss over"
the criticism of the department's con
duct of the war and reiterated his
charge that Mr. Daniels "failed to
direct the action required, both be
fore and during the war, to meet the
urgency of the situation."
Reorganization Is Outlined.
In conclusion, the admiral submit
ted an outline of legislation for re
organization of the department, under
which the civilian secretary would
have two assistants, one civilian and
one military, the"- first to be charged
witn nanaiing or an civil questions
Including contracts, industrial mat
ters and appropriations, and the other
to be responsible for all matters of a
strictly military nature.
The bureau chiefs would be directly
under the military adviser whowould
be responsible .for the efficiency of
the navy.

Is absolutely worthless! That is why
our gTeat army was made up only

But there is a constant warfare
closer home; that you are vitally In
terested in. It is the warfare of dis
ease against your health, a struggle
that is always going on, and one for
which you must always keep your
system prepared.
And your blood supply is the fortress-
upon which you must depend.
If it Is kept pure and free from any
weakening influence, tbe germs of
disease cannot find lodgment, but are
promptly expelled, and good health is
assured. r
But you should take 'no chances
with this mainstay of defense. Im
purities are liable to creep into your
blood and so weaken your system that
it is unable to resist even the most
ordinary ailments This means the
beginning of the attack which will
result in the undermining of your
health. "

blood remedy, will tend to keep the
blood absolutely pure' and free of im
purities. This great old remedy,
which has been, in constant use for
more than fifty years, keeps the sys
tem in perfect condition by tending to
purify the blood and cleansing it

You know that next to a face-to-face con
versation, the best thing is a long-distance
conversation.
With factories behind with orders, with
shipping delays and changing prices, you
know how your trade requires a constant,
PERSONAL attention.
But do you also know that here in the
Northwest is a strictly long-distance tele
phone company, independently owned and
operated?
0
That we LIKE to handle rush calls, to
locate parties, and to do everything that
you might ask a long-distance operator
to do?
.
Then the next time you phone a customer
or call the house just say; "Northwestern
Long Distance" to the operator.
A handy, compact book for recording long-distance
calls will be sent ( free) upon request.
