MONTREAL,, jCne 11. The Ameri
can Federation of Labor in conven
tion here made preparations tonight
to offer the support of organized labor
to thr democratic party in return for
its acceptance of labor's platform de
mands which leaders declare the re
publican party has ignored.
I,nbor leaders announced tonight
that the subject would be placed be
fore the federation's convention ta
morrow. The first, step, they said,
would he a condemnation of the re
publican party, to be followed by an
appeal to the democratic party for in
corporation of labor's policy in its
plat form.
Samuel Gompers and other labor
leaders were In session late today
preparing a plan of action. They de
clined to divulge their decision but
indicated "drastic action against the
republican party would be proposed."
Coast Wamta Party.
Delegates and labor officials
showed considerable sentiment for the
formation of a labor party.
Thos-e close to Mr. Clompers, how
ever, asserted tonight that the action
of the republican convention would
have no effect on the non-partisan
political programme and there was
"not the slightest possibility" of la
bor putting a party in the field this
year.
Pacific coast delegates, advocates
of a labor party, made use of the situ
ation and pressed their plan to have
the convention authorize a committee
to investigate during the next year
the feasibility of organizing a labor
party and report at the 1921 conven
tion. The only resolution adopted today
provided that "every effort be made
by the organized labor movement to
the end that schools, hospitals, asy
lums and other similar public or pri
vate institutions, factories as well as
other forms of buildings, require
proper care against the dangers of
fire."
Organized labor was also urged to
aid in. enforcing legislation tending
to safeguard life, limb and property.
Despite the fact that the conven
tion is being held on British soil.
Matthew VV oil, vice-president of the
federation, declared tonight that the
Irish resolution will be taken up for
discussion and adoption by the dele
gates.
James Simpson of Toronto, vice
president of the Canadian Trades and
Labor congress, said that if the
federation wants to discuss Ireland
that is their privilege.
a convention is being held n
Montreal." he added, "and there can
bo no restrictions placed on that
convention. uesiaes, i doubt very
much if tins convention will go
rurther on the Irish question than
did the British' trades congress in
St. Andrews hall, Glasgow."
boveral of the Canadian delegates
announced today that they would not
participate in any debate of the Irish
question, but would leave the matter
entirely in the hands of the American
delegates.
l:xgloltatlon la Charged.
The platform adopted by the re
pu nut-an national convention was
termed "an outrage and an affront
to working people" in a statement
tonight by Mr. Woll. He declared it
is "a document with which Wall
street and the steel trust ought to
be highly pleased."
.Mr. noil saiu tne platform gives
wnat j take to be a pledge that the
united Mates will police Mexico for
the benefit of organized oil, mineral
and mining appetites."
"The platform promises no relief
from the profiteers and has the
effrontery to propose continued sub
mission to heartless exploitation,"
the statement added. "The American
people are determined to find relief
from profiteering. Nothing so inti
mately afreets them in their daily
lives. On this point the platform is
disdainful of the welfare of the peo
ple. We are forced to the conclusion
that the republican proposes to pro
tect it."
(Continued Prom First Pate.)
! ing the startling news that a deal is
under way to deliver the solid north
west to Harding Doubtful. The Ore
gon delegates just now cannot deliver
themselves where they .want to go.
After 40 minutes the chairman man
aged by vigorous pounding to gait
control. As a demonstration it had
been only a moderate success. Let
the comparative failure be blamed on
the heat. We will see later what the
others can do.
lYank Knox made a hit by talking
only five minutes for Wood. A lady
in black was introduced as Mrs.
Carinne Douglas Robinson. She . is
Theodore Roosevelt's sister. She said
she was not speaking for her brother,
but she was speaking as a Roosevelt,
and she put it over.
The Roosevelt snap, punch, inclsive
ness, fire and force were all there.
She turned two or three fine phrases
"fighting machines" and "cannon
fodder." When she contrasted Wood
with Wilson and said the one
"awaits;" but the other "makes" psy
chological moments, she struck a
vibrant chord that sounded for many
seconds. Then somebody lowered
from the galleries a great photograph
of Wood and Roosevelt and an ap
propriate climax was reached.
I.ondfn Haa Hla Turn
Then came Lowdcn's turn. His can
didacy was in the hands of Represen
tative Rodenberg. He has a good
presence and a good voice, but he
stumbles every time by calling It
"gummerment." Good enough speech,
but you don't get much out of it. Now,
however, he contrasts the nationalism
of Roosevelt with the international
ism of Wilson, which is not bad. The
speech was not long, which was its
best feature.
Then the crowd had its turn. The
outcry was teriffic and genuinely
spontaneous. Pictures of Lowden ap
peared everywhere. Iowa- starts to
march about the hall followed by
Illinois. Then Virginia gets in the
procession. Here comes a girl in red
on a big man's shoulders, screaming
Lowden at the top of her voice.
Women get in line, but the march
proceeds slowly because of the
crowded aisles. The tumult is con
tinuous, well-sustained,- deafening.
Some one turns on the movins picture
headlights. They looked like the
glaring eyes of a hundred locomotives
coming from four directions.
A woman in green just across the
corridor goes momentarily insane and
lets forth a series of ear-splitting
shrieks. She'll be sorry tomorrow.
The shouters are going to beat the
Wood record or bust. I hope so.
Irvin Cobb, groaning and florid
with the heat, takes a scat. An
effusive stranger grabs his hand and
says he recognized him from the
newspaper pictures. "Damn those pic
tures," says Cobb, "they look like me."

SALEM, Or., June 11. (Special.)
Addresses of welcome by Governor
Olcott and Mayor Wilson, banquet,
five-minute talks by the older mem
bers of the gathering, inspection of
state grounds and institutions and
exchange of reminiscences of the
long-ago featured the programme of
the annual homecoming of former
Salemites held here today.
It had been planned to hold the
reunion on the statehouse grounds
but. because of the unfavorable
weather, the festivities were trans
ferred to the armory. Governor Ol
cott and Mayor Wilson paid special
tribute to the veterans and spoke
feelingly of the many sacrifices they
endured while rounding out their
homes in the Willamette valley. The
live-minute talks by the older boys
were especially Interesting and in-
viuuca a aetanea review or many
important incidents marking the
early history of the state.
I'hotographs showing the horse-
drawn cars, the old Southern Pacific
depot, state capitol when fences were
in rashion and many prominent per
sonages active in the upbuilding and
deevlopmenl of southern Oregon -were
eagerly viewed by the visitors. A
musical number was rendered by Mrs.
Hallie Parrish Durdall.
Among the visitors were Mrs. Mat
tie Gilbert Palmer. Portland: Whitney

Moores. Portland: Mr. and Mrs. Isaac

After a four-day session, to be re
aumed June 28 in New York. City.
Doorkeepers Keep Borah Out.
Just heard that the doorkeepers
wouldn't let Borah in because he had
no ticket but had a delegate's badge.
Borah explained elaborately who he
was and why he had to be there, but
the unfeeling police were obdurate.
"You'se fellers made the rules," said
the sergeant, "now youse play the
game." What game can Borah play
unless he may change rules from time
to time to suit himself?
Mayor J. Hampton Moore of Phila
delphia wriggles along and predicts
that it will be Lowden, Harding or
Sproul, though Wood still has the
call.. He's right. Either one of these
or somebody else. John Barrett tells
Cobb he Is heading his stuff. "Good,"
says Cobb, "I hope all my readers will
report to me here."
Somebody that looks like Beverldge
takes the gavel and tries vainly to
stop the fuss. If he pounds long
enough he will succeed. There were
40 odd and sad minutes of it. Some
body named Pickett eulogizes Lowden
as a practical statesman. Pretty good.
Lowden follows the fashion and brings
on a woman to second him. She is a
Mrs. Fletcher Dobbins. She speaks
briefly and smoothly, a striking con
trast to the sententious and effective
ethod of Mrs. Robinson.
Governor Morrow of Kentucky gets
great ovation as he gets on the
platform. He spake a message from
republican Kentucky." Mebbe so.
mebbe so.
Then came California. The crowd
knew what was next and gave . a
wild shout. Charles S. Wheeler, a
San Francisco lawyer, had been se
lected for the Johnson job. But he
wasn't much of a rabble rouser and
his periods did not give the Johnson
voices their desired chance. The
speaker does not fail to pay tribute
to the glorious state of California,
which has reared in its own soil a
fit candidate, and now generously
gives him to the nation. Wheeler
makes an uneasy stir when he warns
the convention that Johnson must be
nominated if the- Wilson family is to
be turned out of the White House.
A reference to campaign expenses
with the statement that Johnson did
not have enough money for his cam
paign brought a great shout of de
rision. The chairman interfered to
get the speaker a hearing, but a mo
ment later there was a new explosion
when he intimated that Johnson had
no newspaper support.
Derision Canaea Laughter.
When he began, "We bring to you
a great national leader, ordained of
God." he was interrupted by a cry of
"Hearst." This caused a genuine out
burst of laughter from every corner
of the hall, and the speaker was vis
ibly perturbed. "What about Califor
nia in 1916?" interjected another. The
Johnson champion had to wait many
seconds for a chance to proceed. If
this convention nominates Johnson
it will be the first instance in his
tory where such a body has been
blackjacked into doing what it has
not now the slightest purpose of
doing. California is to find that the
political language of California is not
the language of the republican party.
California never "learns it until it
leaves its own boundaries.
Wheeler has much trouble with the
galleries,, but finally gets through.
Mild riot starts and California dele
gates produce American flags and
various Johnson placards .and move
about the floor. Some others join
them. Among those not parading or
yelling Is the Oregon delegation. Two
or three accomplished lady screechers
above pres9 gallery took the yell
leadership and held it until they ex
hausted themselves arid everybody.
After 25 minutes of demonstration for
Hiram, Senator Lodge resumes the
chair. The shouters appear glad to
yield to several taps of the gavel.
Tom Schall, blind member of con
gress from Minnesota, is led down
the gangway. "We have an Abraham
Lincoln among us." he said, and drew
some applause from the California
delegation. Hiram is termed the
Hercules of the nation and his prin
ciples compared to the teachings of
Christ, but only the genuine approval
comes when Schall makes contemptu
ous reference to the "14 points." By
unanimous consent two minutes addi
tional is granted the blind statesman
to get his speech off his chest. A
lady in, white tells about Johnson's
sympathetic understanding of indus
trial problems. .
Others who second Johnson one
from New Jersey, one from Michigan
make a good impression. They do
much to calm the resentment of the
delegates, excited by the tiresome
orator who nominated him. A dele
gate from Massachusetts makes i
rather commonplace speech for Gov
ernor Coolidge, getting a real re
sponse only when he told ' of Cool
idge's defiance of Gompers. As he
concludes dignified Massachusetts
rises- and gives a dignified handclap.
A handsome woman, nobody knows or
asks where she comes from, makes a
hit by a neat allusion to the birth of
Coolidge as a real American on a
certain July 4. She rolls her r's and
broadens her a's. I'll wager she's
from Massachusetts. She saves the
day for Coolidge so far as cheers for
her show it.
North Carolina thinks it has a can
didate and presents Jeter C Pritchard
through ex-Senator Marlon Butler.
Nobody home to hear him at the
start. Everybody restless, anxious to
get down to the real tenseness of
voting. The press gallery adjourns
to the basement and absorbs Edel
weiss. Tou drink it hopefully and
exude it persplrlngly ; but the simi
larity to the days of beer and cheer
ends there. Butler ends In dumb show
with a wild waving of arms and then
Ogden Mills gets up to present an
other Butler prefixed Nicholas Mur
ray, a college president.
It will be hard to convince this
convention that a college professor
can make a good president.
Mills throws a fine speech to deaf
ears. (I have just learned that the
man who nominated Coolidge was
Speaker Gillett. Such Is fame. Every
man who shaves himself should know
him.)
Lodge Ignores Vice-Presidency.
Henry Cabot Lodge has just notified
the Oregon delegation that he doesn't
want to be vice-president and won't
take it if nominated, and he requests
them to vote for someone else. The
delegation is in a good deal of a
pickle. They do not want to offend
Lodge nor offend the sovereign peo
ple of Oregon who have instructed
them for Lodge. But probably the
aforesaid sovereign people by this
time have forgotten all. about it.
After a New York woman had grace
fully seconded Butler, no Important
candidate has made the mistake of
leaving the women out of considera
tion. The convention had the surprise of
its languid life. Judge Miller of New
York, was announced to nominate
Hoover. There was a sudden and
entirely spontaneous roar from the
galleries. I happen to know that the
Hoover people had all but concluded
not to present him formally, fearing
the palsying effect of a cold recep
tion. They underestimated some
thing, probably the republican masses.
If Johnson has the plain people
with him he did not show it here,
but Hoover did. The demonstration
had a. real thrill. Thechairman per
forms a variety of stunts with his
gavel, all useless. Som'' -dy finally
mounts the rostrum and starts a
speech. The galleries are uncontrol
lable. The name of Hoover had
touched the spring of their interest,
sympathy, enthusiasm, desire. The
rhetorical automaton finally retires,
defeated. Then they produce a wom
an speaker. Good strategy. Ladies
first always. The tumult subsides.
She also is eulogizing Hoover. Can't
find out who she is. Crowd acclaims
her vociferously.
Then comes Ohio. Ex-Governor
Willis, who looks, but doesn't sound,
like Dr. J. Whitcomb Brougher, comes
up to name Senator Harding. Willis,
with a ringing voice, fine presence,
swinging arms, appeals for party har
mony and gets an immense cheer.
Willis makes a good old-time stump
speech, calling the roll of the great
repuDiican leaders, ana Has the con
vention on its feet half of .he time.
That's the stuff they want and seldom
get. There was a yell from every
where at the finish. Somebody from
Texas promises that Harding will
carry Texas. Whoo!

"Tou cannot imagine how genuinely
pleased I am to receive this assign
ment. 1 have wanted to come to Port
land for years and I grasped this op
portunity to come here to live gladly
and eagerly."
Thus did Bishop W. O. Shepard.
newly assigned Methodist Episcopal
bishop for the Portland area, express
himself as he stepped from a North
ern Pacific train last night to be met
by a delegation of Portland Metho
dists headed by Drs. William Wallace
Youngson and Joshua Stansfield.
"Where's your overcoat, bishop?"
inquired Dr. Stansfield as the "red
caps" began gathering up the luggage
of .Bishop and Mrs. Shepard.
Overcoat Vot deeded.
A broad smile lighted up the face
of the bishop.
Ah, was his reply, "you do not
need an overcoat in this delightful
June weather in Oregon. "Mine is
packed safely away in a trunk where
it properly belongs in this state at
this time of the year."
Bishop Shepard is so enthused over
his assignment to Portland that he
wanted to speak of nothing else, for
the time being at least.
"Of course, 1 have many plans rela
tive to my work in this area, but
they are in the making at the present
time and 1 cannot speak of them un
til I have entered upon my work," he
said. "Right now I want to enjoy
myseir in the knowledge that I am al
last in Portland a part of Portland
What my plans are and what I hope
to do can come later.
Mrs. Shepard likewise appeared en
thuscd over Portland, and shared with
her husband his pleasure at being ap
pointed bishop for this area.

bers of the Ladies Aid society of the
First Methodist Episcopal church will

refreshments.
Bishop Shepard was assigned to the
Portland area at the recent general
conference of the Methodist Episcopal
cnurcn at JJes Moines, la. The Ore
gon Methodists went to Des Moines
determined to get him if possible and
Bishop Shepard was just as anxious
to come as the Portlanders were to
have him. The result was that tie
Oregon Methodists had no second
choice and the assignment was given
uisnop anepard. despite the fact that
his services were in demand In other
sections of the country.
