"The Johnson organization will go
down the line for the republican
ticket. This Is official," declares
Sanfield MacDonald, manager of the
Johnson campaign in Oregon during
the primaries. "We have no connec

'"Regarding W. P. Adams, who is

once told by W. J. Bryan. An old
negro was working in a cotton field
in Alabama on a hot August after
noon. He wiped his brow and looked
up at the sun and asked: 'Where was
you last December, when we needed
you?' Mr. Adams and his associates
are wasting their' sourness on the
desert air."
Mr. MacDonald returned yesterday
from Chicago, where he attended the
convention as an interested onlooker
after the official count showed th
he had failed of election as a delegate
Uusineas Bit Sensitive.
"There never was a chance for
Johnson to be nominated," said Mr.
MacDonald, "because there was -fear
that he would not be satisfactory to
business, but there was a strong de
sire for him, nevertheless, because he
was recognized as a man who stood
for something. Neither was there i
chance for General Wood nor for Gov
ernor Lowden. 1 am convinced that
Lowden would, have been nominated,
but for the two $2500 checks held by
delegates from Missouri. These dele
gates testified before the senate in
vestigating committee just before the
convention opened. They had received
checks in January to develop Lowden
sentiment, but instead of spending the
money they kept the checks and
showed them to the senate committee
These two men also were elected as
delegates in April. Their testimony
killed Lowden a chance for the nomi
nation.

Harding was held Thursday night and

Drop in Beef Overcomes Rise In
Price of Flour, but Other Items
Are Not Balanced.
SALEM,, Or.. June 16. (Special.)
Bids opened here today for furnishing
supplies for the state institutions
during the six months starting July
and ending December 31 indicate
substantial increase in prices when
compared with the proposals received
for similar supplies last December,
according to R. B. Goodin, state pur
chasing agent. The bids had not been
tabulated tonight, however, and con
tracts for furnishing the various
commodities will not be drawn up be
fore late in the week.
Flour, which has been purchased
by the state at $10.90 a 100 pounds.
has increased to $12.85. while dairy
salt has advanced from $21 to $22 a
ton. Figures submitted by Mr.
Goodin show that the various insti
tutions would use approximately 2245
barrels of hard wheat flour and 400
barrels of soft wheat flour the next
six months. .
Beef, which is being purchased for
$14.73 a 100 pounds under a bid sub
mitted last December, will be bought
at $12 under a proposal, opened to
day. It is estimated by Mr. Goodin
178,500 pounds of beef will be conr
sumed at the state institutions, and
that the drop in the prices for this
commodity would more than make up
for the advance in the cost of flour.
For sugar the state is asked to pay
$23.60 a sack of 100 pounds. Last
December there were no bids rec;eivd
for this product and it has since been
purchased at prevailing market quo
tations.
Canned corn, under today's bids,
will demand $1.65 a case of 24 cans,
which is a slight increase over the
prices now being paid for the product.
Prices for practically all other classes
of canned goods are said to have
advanced in proportion.

"The league of nations is dead. The
platform disposes of it.
"Before leaving Chicago I had

15 minutes, when he discussed hi

Senator Johnson is the biggest asset
the republican party has.
"The Oregon delegation never voted
unanimously except for Coolidge for
vice-president, and when the nomina
tion of Harding was moved to be
made unanimous and when the motion
came for final adjournment. There
were five who voted to the end for
Johnson, following their instructions.
E. J. Adams did not leave Johnson for
Harding until the 10th ballot, when
Harding was as good as nominated.
Senator Johnson, however, does feel
dissatisfied with five men from Ore
gon, these being McCamant, Cooper,
Walker, Carey and Brook. Mr. Cooper
is about 84 years old and bolted from
Johnson on the second ballot, when
Johnson was gaining strength. Later
his alternate was seated and the
alternate supported Johnson to the
finish. Senator Johnson intendB mak

Oregon delegates who quit him and
he will probably send it to me within
a week or so.
Mr. Borah Restrained.
"At one time Senator Borah wanted
to take the floor and denounce cer

states, but he was dissuaded from eo

though he contended that it would be
a good thing to do a little house

As a sidelight, Mr. MacDonald says
that stimulants were easily obtained
in Chicago. Bartenders had physi
cians' prescriptions on sale. If the
patron looked prosperous enough, the
charge for the "prescription" was $5,
and with this a pint could be bought
for $3.50.

Five Times Between Swift
and Riparia, Wash.
WASHINGTON. June 16. (By the
Associated Press.) Plans for bring
ing Senator Harding, the republican
presidential nominee, into closer touch
with party leaders, particularly those
of the progressive wing, were dis
cussed today at a conference which
the senator had with Walter F. Brown
of Toledo, his floor manages- at the
Chicago convention.
The conference is understood to
have resulted in a decision to send
invitations at once to a number of
prominent progressives asking them
to meet with the republican nominee
to discuss the present situation and
the coming campaign. The list of
those to be invited will not be made
public at present.
Friends of Senator Harding said to
night that the proposed conference
would be held before the nominee's
formal notification, which will be
some time before July 15. The sena
tor, it was said, wished to utilize the
views expressed by the party leaders
in preparation of his speech of ac
ceptance.
Vacation to Be Filled.
While some of the meetings may be
held before Mr. Harding leaves Wash
ington Monday, the greater portion
are expected to take place while he
is on his planned vacation.
The visit of Mr. Brown today was
regarded by political observers here
as significant. In 1912 "e was chair
man of the Ohio state progressive
committee and was active in the cam
paign for Theodore Roosevelt. He
was a delegate to the recent Chicago
convention and after the defeat in
the state primary of Harry M. Daugh
erty of Columbus, the senator's cam
paign manager, as a delegate-at-
large, - was selected as Mr. Harding's
floor manager.
"I think you will find that the pro
gressives will be behind Senator
Harding," Mr. Brown said as he left
the senator's office.
Many Meetlniea to Come.
Indications that Mr. Harding,, how
ever, intends to ascertain the views of
all leaders in the party was contained
in his announcement today of a con
ference last night attended by Sen
ators Lodge, republican leader in the
senate; lirandegee of Connecticut,
Fall of New Mexico, and Snioot of
Utah. The meeting at which the plat
form adopted in Chicago was dis
cussed is expected to be the forerun
ner of many similar informal meet
ings. Senator Harding made public a let

Ohio, withdrawing his petition for re

SHAW SERVICE SATISFIES'
By Paul T. Shaw, President.
Amos Burg of Portland and Fred A.
Hill of Spokane are apparently lucky
to have got through aVive -on their
recent canoe trip from Lewiston,
Idaho, to Astoria, Or. The Journey
was replete with dangerous adventure
from start to finish.
They left Lewiston May 23 in a 16
foot canoe and were 22 days on the
way. Going down the Snake river to
the Columbia in some parts the under
tow was so bad that they could hear
sand grinding on the bottom of the
boat in deep water. Between Swift
and Riparia, Wash., they passed 13
rapids and swamped five times.
The Btretch of river between Gulf
and Celilo was one of the roughest
encountered. At Biggs, Wash., Hill
had to steer the canoe, while Burg
held it with a line uom the shore.
This was the only time during the en
tire trip that both could not remain in
the boat. When they swamped a 200
foot rope was carried ashore and the
craft pulled In. At the Celilo canal
the locks were opened for them, but
in the other rapids they paddled
through.
They arrived in Portland June 11
and Hill left for Spokane upon hear
ing of the serious illness of his
mother. Burg made the remainder of
the trip alone. At Eagle Cliff, Wash.,
he camped for the night on the shore
and was awakened by the water lap
ping his nose. The incoming tide had
just about covered him while he slept.
The weather was Ideal as far as
Wallula, Wash., but from then till
Astoria was reached it rained. While
at the mouth of the Columbia, just
before reaching Astoria, a strong head
wind delayed Burg's progress so much
that he could only make a mile an
hour. The last few miles were made
with the canoe half full of water and
several times, while bailing, he nearly
overturned, due to the heavy seas.

WASHINGTON, June 16. Although

granting increased freight rates to
the railroads, Illinois coal operators
today presented widely different
views to the Interstate commerce

F. H. Harwood, representing the

rate advances should be made with as

C. O. Elbert, representing coal op
