(Special.) Governor Olcott last night received telegram from J. I Schuyleman under San Francisco date asking the execu tive to send to him at that city copies of the Oregon laws relating to fill ing of vacancies in the ranks of dele gates elected to attend the national conventions of political parties. The governor today advised Mr. Schuyleman that he had been unable to find any law covering the ques tion submitted, but that a legal opinion given recently by the attorney-general probably would be ac ceptable. In this opinion it was held that there was no statute under which a delegate's commission could be issued to Mr. Schuyleman, but that the latter had the option of present ing his case before the lawful rep resentatives of the" democratic party. This was taken to mean by local politicians that Mr. Schuyleman's only relief would be found before either the democratic state central com mittee or democratic national committee.

SMALL GARDENS WANTED COMMISSH1XER BARBUR HAS SLOGAN FOR PORTLAND. At the suggestion of the federal bureau of naturalization, Presiding Circuit Judge McCourt yesterday signed an order directing the clerk of the circuit court to receive no more petitions for naturalization of aliens on or after August 1, the court thus relinquishing all Jurisdiction in sucn matters. The hearing of all such matters in the United States district court will save labor, reduce expense and facili tate the naturalization work, it is pointed out in the order prepared. At present the hearings are given' both in federal and state court in Mult nomah county, resulting in consider able duplication of records and un necessary work. The order applies only to the Sult ncmah county circuit court, not to other circuit courts throughout the state. To compel all naturalization petitions to be heard in a federal court would cause a great hardship in outlying districts, where state courts continue to handle the work without duplication. The only reason for the change in Portland is to do away with identical processes in two dif ferent courts, consolidating the na turalization work in the federal court. The circuit judge informally agreed unanimously, at a recent meeting to the action formally recorded yester day. As petitions may be filed in the cir cuit court up to and including July 31. Hearings may continue for six months after the court refuses to allow further petitions to be filed, but after that time all hearings will be in the United States district court. President Said to Be Standing in McAdoo's "Way More Than Aiding Him to Win Nomination. BY MARK SULLIVAN. (Copyright by the New Tork Evening Post, iu. jruDii&nea iy Arrangement. ) SAN FRANCISCO, June 29. (Spe cial.) Without attempting to enter into the field of prediction at all, and subject to changing conditions from day to day. It is possible to make sev eral detached observations .about which there can be little doubt. These observations do not point'necessarily toward any one candidate, and do not even necessarily exclude the possibil ity or any one candidate. Palmer is not aa strong in relation to the convention as a whole as he was some days, or even some weeks ago. Palmer following is composed too strongly of beneficiaries of pat ronage to be dependable. As someone expressed it. Palmer has more dele gates than anybody else, but too many of them are of the kind who-explain by. saying, "I am for Palmer, but " Delegate Watch Two-third Rule. - As it has been expressed elsewhere, there are a lot of delegates who will vote for Palmer "with one eye on the two-thirds rule," meaning that if Palmer should begin to approach the two-thirds necessary to nominate, these delegates will desert him. The backbone of the Palmer management and of ih'a Palmar following among state leaders is composed of men who have been the beneficiaries of his patronage either as attorney-general as alien property custodian.

Abel of Tacoma, sitting for Judge R., H. Back of the superior court of Clarke county, by giving de crees to both parties.

Dr. Walter Anderson was "hard- boiled" when approached by county traffic officers at Multnomah, falls, testified Deputy Sheriffs Taylor and Weaver in the court of District Judge Hawkins yesterday. He had taken some Shriners out the Columbia high way and refused to move his car when it blocked traffic Irom the talis to the bridge, they reported. That he was very overbearing in his manner, and when he did move his car parked it on the pavement in defiance of the directions of the dep uties, for which he was arrested, were the assertions of the officers. The officers further declared that Dr. Anderson told them it mattered not how many notices he was served with he would not appear in court Monday. He explained to the court that an im portant operation prevented his ap pearance then. A fine of 10 was levied. BOY DROWNS IN LAKE Fishermen Recover Lad's Body With Pole Following Accident.

Li. E. Oliver, Alverda Johnson, Wed COUPLE SHUNS PUBLICITY Brlde-to-Be Takes Future Mate Where Licenses Are Kept Secret. VANCOUVER. Wash., June 29. (Special.) Because the county audi tor was unable to keep- their names from the newspapers here today, a couple, accompanied by a witness and wishing to be wed Immediately, left - his office in a huff and are now seek ing some quiet spot in Oregon where friends or enemies will never learn of tne marriage. The bride-to-be demurred when the auditor told the excited bridegroom that the press was entitled to the names of all persons obtaining a li cense and in an authoritative and businesslike manner, after pocketing her future husband's honeymoon roll, ushered him out of the office and presumably out of town in search of a license elsewhere. TACOMA, Wash., June 29. (Spe cial.) Laurence E. Oliver of Seattle and Alverda M. Johnson of Portland obtained a marriage license" in Ta coma today. J-almer s office as alien property cus todian two or three years ago cre ated the necessity of appointing law yers and trustees to take charge of tne German-owned property in vari ous sections of the country. Practically all these appointments were made on a strict basis of choos ing a good man. with the qualifica tion that the cod man must also be a democrat. The nature of the work was sucn mat it was very remunera tive, are to his campaign. It is not the kind of support that makes a strong backing or tends to get new adherents from among the independent delegates. The consequence is that in the universal opinion of obsrvers his strength does not grow. ' Cox Falling: Behind. Ccx, alo, has measurably fallen be hind during the past week. He has HIMhU Pletely identified with the wet advo cates. The result has been to solidify the dry elements against him, and It is fairly certain that there will al ways be more than enough delegates implacably opposed to Cox on grounds of prohibition than are necessary to maintain that one-third of the con vention which can always prevent a nomination. The third of the three leaders is McAdoo. By this time, although Mc- Adoo is given complete credit for ?ood faith in his withdrawal, that withdrawal is entirely ignored by the leaders and delegates who are fori him. McAdoo's' strength comes largely 1 rrom those delegates who sincerely believe that lie is better Known and j more favorab.v known to democratic voters throughout the country than the ethers, and who believe that as head of the ticket he would be the best vote setter of all. In addition to this, he has the backing of several Important members of the administration. President Not Interfering. This, however, is short of saying that" McAdoo has the backing of the president. Tho widespread headlines which represent Wilson as trying to fon.e McAdoo on the convention are as far as possible from the facts. It is true that some members of the cab- ret and others identified with the administration ere backing- him. but the truth is they are doing it with a good deal of apprehension of incur ring the president's displeasure. If, as is entirely possible, the con vention gets into a Jain where the president io appealed to for a solution. it is fairly safe to predict that he will not favor .MiAdoo. The exact facts about the relation of Wilson and Mc Adoo to each other as respects this nomination, and about the relation of each of them to the next four years in the White House, are too complex to be set dawn here. Possibly they are too personal and intimate to be set down at any time. But the net of that complex set of facts is that Mr. Wilson at this moment is much more nearly standing in the way of Mc Atioo s nomination than giving any aid to it. Mctdw Strona-est of All. At this moment MoAdoo, although lii.i full strength may not be shown in the earlier balloting, is markedly stronger than either of the other two men. . Whether he can be named is another matter. It must always be lemembered that in democratic con ventions it uxes two-tnirrts to nom inate. Another way of expressing this s that one-third of the con'ven tion can always pievent the nomina tion of any one man. That is to say, 366 delegates, held compactly to gether, can prevent any one man from setting the prize. Where you have such a situation as this now is, with three contenders ioughly equal in strength, there is always a tendency' for the two in the " rear to make common cause against the one who approaches win ning. As the race nears the finish a strong feeling is apt to be developed and the man who leaps forward in the s some risk, of failing within the coal by the implacable quality developed among his oppo nents through the excitement of the race. If some such equilibrium as this should be established, it seems to your correspondent .ikely that Wiaon would be appealed to, to choose some one from amongr the minor contenders or the dark horses. Some Dark Horses Available A complete list of those who are really available dark horses, as dis tinguished fro-Ti the many other can didates who are merely receiving the local and purely complimentary men tion, would include the following Vice-President Marshall, Ambassador John W. Davis. Chairman Homer Cum mings, Bainbrldge Colby, sacretary of state, and Carter Glass, senator of Virginia.

Opera tion of the railroads of the country "as a unit" as a means- of relieving the present transportation difficul ties was suggested today by William B. colver of the federal trade com mission, in an address before the Washington Ad club. Mr. Colver pre dicted that a continuation of the present situation would mean "untold sufering and industrial shutdowns next winter." Hundreds of millions of dollars are tied up now in mer chandise in sidetracked cars, he said Only one-tenth of the needed coal for next winter's supply has been moved to the head of the lakes, Mr. Colver said, while the industries in New England are actually closing down now for lack of coal. Farmers also are unable to 'obtain cars to move the residue of last year's wheat crop at a time when the new crop is coming to harvest. Already, he declared, there are predictions of $25 flour and 25-cent bread. Mr. Colver declared the roads were unable to get coal cars to the mines, with a result that this month coal production is far below normal, and miners are seeing their "families go hungry." When operated separately, Mr. Col ver declared, even the largest rail road cannot operate profitably and at reasonable rates. - What Could Be Nicer on a warm afternoon than a heer organdie frock, fashioned after Paris styles in a charming vivid color, or white or a cleverly styled frock of voile or batiste, especially n the allover rambling designs or a combination of colored and white swiss, with colored . dots on white grounds or a natty gingham frock, so carefully designed and made that you would say it was almost good enough for any wear.

The more staunchly the residents of a com munity stand behind local products, making use of them wherever possible, and recom mending them to others, the larger will be the payrolls, and the greater the capital in vested in manufacturing interests. Often lack of patronage of home industries is due not to indifference, but to ignorance. People are unfamiliar with the names of local firms, and the trade names of their products. With that in mind, the Ladd & Tilton Bank is issuing a new series of advertisements, this being the introductory one, to acquaint Portland people with local goods. Watch for these advertisements, one of which will appear weekly, clip them out, and ask by name for Portland goods. LADD & TILTON BANK Oldest in the Northwest Washington and Third it?'
