OTIEGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. "Wash ington, Aug. 6- Washington i$ grati fied at the news from the Kansas pri maries held Tuesday, .which shows that Governor Henry J. Allen, Senator Charles Curtis and all of the present republican members of congress were renominated by overwhelming majori ties. The teason is that Kansas has handed a terrific blow by Tuesday s vote to bolahevlsm. Plumb plan l&Kueism, non-partisan leagueism, I. W. W.ism, socialism, communism and all other forms of radicalism. Alexander Howat, leader of the Kansas coal miners, had consolidated all of these revolutionary elements Into a scheme to go Into the republi can primaries and vote' against Gov ernor Allen because he established a state industrial court for the settle ment of labor disputes. Senator Cur tis and the republican members of the lower house of congress were marked for slaughter because they had voted or the Each-Cummins railroad bill. Allen's Lead 1:10,000. Allen has come out of the contest, according to today's tabulations, with a lead of 130,000, earrying every county in the etato except Crawford In which the coal miners are located. and ho lost it by only 100 votes. Curtis won by mora than 100,000. losing only one county, and Repre tentative Strong, on whom the radi cals centered their fire in the con gressional contests, carried eight of 10 counties In his district. Inspection of primary returns from other states shows that the radicals have made no progress anywhere. In Texas they lost every 'contest, Rep resentative Blanton, who was made a special target of the Plumb plan league and other extremists, being re nominated by the largest vote he has ever received. In North Dakota, the birthplace of the non-partisan league movement, it will be recalled that the league and its radical allies lost two out of the three congressional districts. Repre sentative Bacr of the Fargo district who has been devoting much of his two terms in congress to drawing cartoons for radical papers, went down to defeat under a perfect avalanche. Kon-Partlsaa Foe Wins. Representative Young, condemned to political death by the non-parti ans, won by a handsome margin. The radicals retained the other d trict. The only other victory so far to the credit of the sooialist organi sation came in the defeat on the face of the returns of Representative Vol stead, in Minnesota. The state cor rupt practices act has turned that victory Into defeat, it having been shown to the satisfaction of a court that Volstead was defeated by mis representation qf his religious alti tude. The bolshevistic, socialistic, atheis tic and free-love books planted in the Aorth pakota state library last winter, which indicated the trend of the non-partisan mind, proved a factor in reducing the strength of the non-partisans. caretui scrutiny snows tnat out oi all the nominating contests so far, the radical combination can claim but one victory and that was In the renomination of Representative Sin clair in North Dakota. The nomina tion of Dr. E. F. Ladd for United states senator over Asle J. Gronna is not a victory for radicalism because Dr. Ladd will have to speed to keep up with Gronna, who has always been follower of Bob LaFollette.

(Spe cial. ) George F. Christensen. demo cratic state chairman, has called on each of the party's county chairmen to see to it that a complete county and legislative t.cket is filed. Chris tensen has advised county chairmen to call their committees together and if necessary to draft democrats to file as candidates for different offices. The democratic state chairman will be in Seattle Sunday and will prob ably consult party leaders and state committeemen here to see that a com plete state and congressional ticket is prepared for the primaries. Christen sen planned to be here earlier, but has been delayed by illness. Ko difficulty has been experienced by the democrats in finding guberna torial timber. Fight to Cfenter on Governor. The governor controls most of the state patronage and the democrats naturally expect to concentrate their efforts on the head of the state ticket. So thus far Judge W. W. Black of Everett, Dr. E. T. Mathes. mayor of Bellingham, and State Senator I. G. O'Hara of Seattle are in the demo cratic race for governor. In addition, George Fletcher Cotterell left a blank here which his friends could file for the same office If they desired. How- j ever, the party programme Is to file : Cotterell for United States senator. I Difficulty has been experienced in the past in inducing candidates to file for minor state offices. It is ex pected that pressure may have to be brought to bear on some Bourbon leaders to induce them to make the race for congress and state places this year. County Chairman C. D. Fullen had his work of filling up the King oounty ticket well under way before the telegraphic appeal came from State Chairman Christensen. Fullen has been at work on the job for three weeks and and it is ex pected in democratic circles that a complete county and legislative ticket in t.ma county will be assured by Sunday, when the county commission meets to canvass the situation. All of the filings will be made by the end of the week, but democratic lead ers insist 4hy will have the candi dates registered before the last day- Full Slate Desired. Some democratic county chairmen will have hard work In filling out their tickets before the end of next week, but the state committee will in sist on at least one man running for each office. The democrats are not at tempting to keep anybody off their ticket, lor they would like to have contests that would bring out a larger vote in the primaries. Until the triple alliance decided to place a third ticket in the field and won over the non-partisan league's executive committee to the alliance's way of thinking, the democrats had hoped that they might capture this vote by yielding recognition on their ticket. That was the policy which prevailed in the King county and the state - conventions, but a number of things have happened since then to upset the programme. It is oenceded in democratic circles that Governor James M.

George by CONFISCATION REPORTED The coroners Jury In the inquest into tne death or George N. Pattison, who was fatally injured in an auto mobile aceident last Sunday evening, found that the deceased came to his death "as the result of an automo bile collision at the intersection of East Thirteenth and Clackamas streets and from the evidence ad duced we are of the opinion that the accident was due to the negligence of Mrs. Bernard."

"When I tell you I've been relieved ef 10 years' Buffering you can under stand why I'm so strong for Tanlac." said William Barnett of 15 Tehama street, San Francisco, in a recent in terview. -More than thirty years, ago my stomach beaan troubling me and I had just about reached the point where I was past going before I got Tanlac My appetite was so bad I didn't relish a bit of food and I Just had, to give up eating meats, vegetables or any thing solid, and practically lived on milk and toast. What little I did manage to eat kept me in constant agony, for it caused such terrible cramping pains in my stomach that it almost doubled me up. I would bloat all up with gas which pressed up into my chest, almost cutting off my breath and causing such pains around my heart that it alarmed me. I was so nervous 1 couldn't keep still and at nlsht I couldn't rest, but would roll and toss for hours. 'When I would get up In tho morning I was so sore and stiff that it would be five or teiv minutes before I was able , to bend over enough to put my shoes on. I was so weak I didn't have strength enough to drive a nail and had to give up my Job of carpentering and for a month wasn't able to do any kind of work. "Finally Tanlac was so highly rec ommended to me I started taking it, and it helped me ao there was all the difference in the world in my condi tion by the time I had finished the very first bottle. 'Well, I stuck to it until I have taken four bottles now. and feel like an entirely different person. My appetite is fine and I eat anything set before me without suffering bit from indigestion, gas or any other stomach trouble. My breathing is free and easy. I never have a pain of any kind and my nerves are as steady as steel. I sleep like a log at nieht and get up in the morning full of lifo and energy and ready for a day's work. I've already picked up "0 pounds in weight and am now enjoying the best of health. I only hope my statement will be the cause of others taking Tanlao. for I am confident it will give tnera relief from their Buffering." Tanlao is sold in Portland by toe 01 Drug Co. Adv.
