ROOSEVELT MURPHY'S TOY
?few Yor'i Ross Uses Great Name as
Alibi and as Gamble In Grab
bing Unsuspecting Votes.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU,
Washington, Aug. 29. Cries of
wolf, wolf" by James Cox, demo
cratic candidate for president, and
Franklin D. Roosevelt, his youth
ful companion, in the effort to break
Into the White House, are beginning
to awaken an appreciation of the hu
mor of the situation among those who
are familiar with the nomination of
the candidates.
Governor Cox and young Mr. Roose
velt appear to be disturbed greatly
because they say Senator Harding
was hand-picked by a coterie that met
In a Blackstone hotel room in Chi
cago at a late hour of a certain Fri
day night.
Gllbness In Amusing.
The amusing feature of the charge
Is that it should be made so glibly
and so enthusiastically by Governor
Cox and Mr. Roosevelt.
It is a recognised court procedure
that the accuser must come into court
with clean hands.
So when Governor Cox turns hand
springs of indignation over the charge
that Senator Harding's nomination
was the result of a hotel conference,
the thought of republican leaders here
reverts to the manner in which Gov
ernor Cox's nomination was brought
about.
It isrecalled that previous to the
conwntion, the decision to overturn I
the White House succession, and put
the "crown prince" out of business,
had been reached by Tammany. The
decision naturally preceded the action
and Sachem Murphy called into con
ference the leaders of his group at
the American Monte Carlo, located
at French Licks Springs, and pre
sided over by Thomas Taggart. With
in the hospitable portals of this
noted tavern, the French Lick con
sistory met. It was made up of Charles
P. Murphy of Tammany, James Nu
gent of New Jersey, George Brennan.
who had succeeded Roger Sullivan
to the bosship of Chicago, and
"Mine Host," better known as Boss
Taggart.
Discredited Force Victors.
It was then and there that Gover
nor Cox was "designated," the deci
sion was maintained all' through
the convention, the forces of de
mocracy have always been discredited
nationally, hitherto succeeding in do
ing that which they had never before
accomplished. '
Tammany's choice was put over on
the democratic party. This it is that
causes republican leaders to smile
When they read of Governor Cox's In
dignant contortions and distortions
about the republican candidate hav-
"Ing been "hand-picked."
The outcries of Mr. Roosevelt have
not attracted so much atentlon, al
though it Is realized that, equipped
with an honorable name, and with the
distinction of having been named for
the vice-presidency by a leading po
litlcal party, Mr. Roosevelt's utter
ances might receive credence by those
who are not familiar with the con
ditions of his own nomination. .
Roosevelt Tammany's Choice.
Air. Koosoveit, as assistant secre
tary of the navy, It is admitted, had
done nothing to commend himself
to the consideration of his party for
this distinguished honor. Those fa
miliar with the workings of the San
Francisco convention, realize that Mr.
Roosevelt was as much the choice 6f
Tammany as was Governor Cox.
The selection was made for a dif
ferent' reason, but for the same ob
jective. It is generally recognized
that this is a big year in New York.
There is a governor to be elected,
. whicli means control of the state ma
chine, a United States senator to be
chosen and several other Important
posts to be filled. Boss Murphy is
not the kind of a man who would
duplicate the fable of the dog who
dropped the bone he held in his mouth
to leap after the reflection he saw In
the water.
Those who know the character of
Charles F. Murphy say he is not
averse to making a gamble to obtain
.the presidency, but is too canny to
sacrifice chances of gaining the
things close at hand in the effort to
gather In everything within a na
tional radius.
Nome Used for Alibi.
Having achieved the nomination of
Governor Cox, his personal selection
for the presidency. Boss Murphy at
once realized the danger of acknowl-
.. edging authorship and sought an alibi.
Mr. Roosevelt afforded the solution.
According to Tammany philisophy
there is much in a name and Murphy
, Is credited with believing many
people would vote for the name of
Roosevelt, even thought it might in-

Nearly an inch of rain fell in Port
land and vicinity during the 24 hours
ending at 5 o'clock last nigh ac
cording to the official calculation,
which placed the precipitation at .84
of an inch. '
Orchardists and gardeners reported
the rain as exceedingly beneficial to
crops, while wheat ranchers declared
the fall was not of sufficient duration
to harm wheat in shocks. Neither
were the hop crops injured.
The fall occurred mostly during the
night. The sunshine of Sunday quickly
dried the rain in the wheat fields.
Pastures received considerable ben
efit from the rain, following as it did
the precipitation of Thursday and
Friday V
The pr' fiction was for fair weather
today.
WALLA WALLA, Wash., Aug. 29.
(Special.) An unusually heavy rain
fell here today delaying the harvest
and causing considerable damage, es
pecially in the upper Mill creek sec
tion where the storm verged on a
cloudburst. Bridges in draws were
washed out. .
Total precipitation was .52 of an
inch and of this amount one-fifth of
an inch fell In five minutes during the
heaviest part of the storm. In 45 min
utes more than a quarter of an Inch
of rain fell. This makes the total for
August 1.87 inches, making ft the
third wettest August in 44 years.
Indications are for a further rain
fall. The rain was followed by a high
wind which shattered some of the
wheat still standing.
HOOD RIVER, Or., Aug. 29. (Spe
cial.) The recent rainfall has -cleared
Hood river and tributaries, a&d ang
lers report that trout fishing is fine.
Many sportsmen made handsome
catches today. The fall run of sal
mon trout has started, and. with the
lower reaches of the river clear, ang
lers are expecting fine sport with
the large species. The first salmon
trout reported here for the season
were caught by Allan Hart, who
landed three 14-inch fish yesterday.

telegraphed that he learned from po
lice sources that the assassination of
Inspector Swanzy, as well as of other
government officials, had been in
trusted to gunmen shipped from the

This charge was not new. Sir Ed

the Irish office, the home office and
the foreign office refused to make any
such charge. There may be some offi

in the hope they would prejudice
America against the Irish movement
but they don't care to advance them
as official.

a wireless message rrom the ves
sel's captain to the marine department
of the chamber of commerce reported
that the Arakan was resting- on
sandy beach 200 yards offshore. She
was on an even keel and the sea was
calm. He reported that no appre
hension was felt for the vessel's
safety unless the sea should become
heavy. Two tugs were on their way
from San Francisco to extricate the
Arakan, which was expected to be
accomplished at high tide tonight.

DEMOCRATS ABOUT BROKE

BY MARK SULLIVAN.

NEW YORK, Aug. 29. (Special.)
Tomorrow the senate committee w'll
meet in Chicago and expects to begin
its investigation with Will Hays testi
fying first. We shall now have exact
figures under oath and in the course
of a few days will be able to come
to conclusions based on exact facts.
During these few days the subject
of campaign funds will be very much
to the front. Mr. Cox has made good
on his undertaking to give something
definite enough to engage the com
mittee and the public interest as well.
In a way, it is a pity that this par
ticular excitement comes at this time.
This ought to have been the week
for a close examination of Senator
Harding's position on our Interna
tional affairs, and for a comparison
of it with the democratic position.
That comparison is probably' the one
thing that will finally determine the
largest number of changeable voters
at the election.
League May Be Obscured.
Sooner or later that comparison
will be made and these changeable
voters will come to their conclusions.
but for the immediate present me
league of nations is likely to be ob
scured by the public interest in the
testimony before the senatorial in
vestigation committee.
What seems to have happened is
that the republicans engaged as direc
tor, of their solicitation of campaign
funds a professional organizer; one of
those extremely modern salesmen ot
the "go get 'er" type, who had a good
deal of success in managing the lib
erty loan, Red Cross and Y. M. C. A.
tvpe of "drive." It appears to have
been his methods and manners that
got the republicans "in bad as much
as anything else. His slogan of "get
the money, boys," is fully as respon
sible as the figures, are for what the
nublic recognizes as distasteful in the
revelations about the repuoiican
campaign fund.
Exact Flicurea to Be Available.
The exact figures for both parties
will be available to the public within

MARION. Aug. 29. His plan for a
new association of nations having
been put before the country. Senator
Harding expects to turn his attention
to other issues of the campaign in
his speeches of the next two weeks,
with only an occasional reference to
the league fight.
The next important problem on
which he probably will outline his
views is the reclamation of western
lands. He will speak on that subject
Tuesday to a group of republican gov
ernors and nominees for governor
from western states who will be cen
tral figures in "Governors' day" of
the front porch calendar.
On Monday of the following week,
the nominee's labor platform is to be
set forth in a speech to a Labor day
gathering here, and two days later he
will discuss agricultural issues at the
Minnesota state fair.
Later in the campaign Senator
Harding intends to bring the question
of industrial reconstruction into
prominence. It also is expected that
he will devote a speech to soldier
compensation.
He will speak here next Saturday
to state chairmen of the republican
ways and means committees entrust
ed with collection of campaign funds,
but it is not expected he will touch
directly on the charges of an exces
sive campaign fund made by Gover
nor Cox. He has indicated that he
expected an adequate reply to be
made by National Chairman Hays and
National Treasurer Upham.
The senator, however, will not lose
sight of the league issue.
Senator Knox of Pennsylvania, ir
reconcilable opponent of the Versailles
treaty, is expected here during the
coming week.
Harding headquarters made public
today numbers of telegrams of con
gratulations on Senator Harding's
foreign relations speech yesterday.
Among them was one from Senator
Brandegee of Connecticut, one of the

"Let Americans nave What They

to Knights of Columbus.
ROME. Aug. 29. (By the Associated
Pope Benedict today took a leading
part, posing first with various groups
and then for "close-ups," and express
ing much amusement at the persist
ence of the American photographers
who went within four feet of the
Pontiff and snapped him smiling.
This occurred after the pope had
celebrated mass for the visiting
American Knights of Columbus in
the open Vatican gardens and had
given holy communion personally to
each knight. Vatican officials were
amazed that the pope appeared in
these scenes for about 20 minutes,
and which proved the most complete
pictures ever taken of Vatican cere
monies. The pope seized Supreme Knight
Flaherty by both hands, blessing the
knights and America. He welcomed
the visitors In a short address, trans
lated by Archbishop Cerretti, for
merly of the papal delegation at
Washington. After the pope posed
for the pictures he drove through the
gardens, flanked by knights, to the
Vatican. When the Vatican officials
objected to the pope being photo
graphed, he said:
"Let the Americans have what they
want."
FIGHT OVER EGYPT LOOMS
Strong Tory Opposition Will Be

LONDON, Aug. 29. (Special cable.)
Despite optimistic self-congratula-tors
in some sections of the British
press over Lord Milner's "agreement"
with the Egyptian nationalist delega
tion for Egyptian "independence." it
has been learned that matters are by
no means settled. Even should
Egyptian nationalists accept the plan
there Is likely to be a strong Tory
opposition In the British government, I
both In the house of commons and in I
the house of lords. j
The question, it is said, is unlikely
to come up here for decision for three
months. By that time the cabinet
will have studied the scheme and de

LONDON.. Aug. 29. (Special cable.)
The government is busily engaged
in making Its plans to meet the situ
ation in the event of a coal strike.
Foremost among these is a scheme
for the preservation of the national
food supply. The methods employed
during the railway strike last year
succeeded beyond public expectation,
and it is proposed to put them into
operation again.
Prices will go up, of course, and
rationing probably will be necessary
In respect to some articles, coal

experience a return of some of the

REAL QUOTAS TO BE GIVEN
Evidence Will "Crucify Cox
on His Own Cross."
COUNTER CHARGES READY
Democrats to Be Forced to Mako
Public Everything Connected.
With Their Campaign.
CHICAGO, Aug. 29. Leaders in the
republican party spent the day pre
paring a vast mass of documentary
evidence to be presented to the sen
ate campaign investigating commit
tee when it reconvenes tomorrow to
look Into the methods used in con
ducting presidential campaigns.
This evidence, they declared, would
prove untrue the charges of Governor
Cox, that a '$15,000,000 corruption
fund" was being raised by the re
publicans and would "crucify Cox on
his own cross."
All mt tn Be tilven.
Will Hays, chairman of the repub
lican national committee, and Fred
W. Upham, treasurer, were in con
ference until late tonight. Under
their supervision copies of the party's
books and records were made con
taining the name of .every contribu
tor to the campaign fund and the
amount given, the party's campaign
.budget and a list of the quotas as
signed various districts. Another
statement prepared is said to show
the expenditures of the party in the
campaign.
"It will all be given to the commit
tee tomorrow," said Mr. Upham. "It
will show that there is no corruption,
no slush fund and that Go vernor'Cox's
statements are absolutely untrue."
Democrats to Be Charged.
Previous statements by Mr. Hays
and Mr. Upham that the republican
party would not be content with de
fending itself from Governor Cox's
charges, but would present evidence
concerning the democratic campaign
fund, were reiterated.
"We will fight fire with fire," said
Mr. Hays. "We will not only make
public everything connected with our
campaign, but we will force the
democrats to do the same. We warned
them at the start that we would not
take their aspersions lying down and
