SHORTRIDGE'S LEAD
OVER KENT 26,915
Nomination of Republican
Candidate Counted Certain.
HARDING TRIUMPH SEEN
Representative Barbour, Republic
an, Wins Over Democratic Oppo
nent in Seventh District. .
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 1. The
nomination of Samuel M. Shortridge
of San Francisco as tne republican
candidate for the United States senate
became a virtual certainty, tonight
when tabulations were made of 4188
out of the state's total of 6129 pre
cincts. The results of these figures
left no further doubt in the minds of
Shortridge'a supporters that their
candidate had won by a majority
that they expect will approximate
30,000 votes over William Kent when
belated precincts are finally com
puted. Albert J. Wallace of Los An
geles admitted his own defeat in
Tuesday's primary election and sent,
a telegram of congratulation to Mr.
Shortridge.
The tabulation at 6 o'clock tonight
jrave this result from the 4188 pre
cincts, with every county of the 58
reporting: Kent, 76.525; Shortridge,
103,440; Wallace. 51,993.
California Indorse Harding.
In Los Angeles county, where the
tabulation of the vote is extremely
low, Kent is leading his two oppo
nents, but only 346 of the county's
precincts have been heard from, and
Kent's supporters expressed the opin
ion tonight that Shortridge's major
ity would be materially lessened when
the laggard districts are finally heard
Xfrom.
The following statement was Issued
today from western headquarters of
tjhe republican national committee:
"In the nomination yesterday of
Samuel M. Shortridge as the repub
1 can candidate for United States sen
ator from California, with a smajh
i ig plurality estimated at more t han
610,000, California indorsed Senator
Harding and his policies In no uncer
JUdn fashion."
' Republican Candidate Wins.
In the first district Kepresentatlve
Clarence F. Lea, running unopposed
for the democratic nomination, also
captured, on the face of incomplete
returns, the republican nomination of
his district. The same situation pre
vailed in the second and seventh dis
tricts where, respectively. Represen
tative . John K. Raker, democrat,
captured the republican nomination
and Representative Henry E. Barbour,
republican, defeated W. W. Harris,
Bakersfield, for the democratic
nomination. In the eighth district,
Arthur M. Free, San Francisco attor
ney, appeared to have defeated Repre

roy, democratic Incumbent, for the re
publican nomination. In the sixth
district Representative J. A. Klaton
was leading by a considerable margin
William R. Geary of Oakland for the
republican nomination.
In the ninth Charles F. Van de
"Water was leading Representative
Charles H. Randall for the republican
nomination. In the tenth district re
turns were too meager to give any in
dication of the district results. Repre
sentative Henry Z. Osborne ran un
opposed for the republican nomina
tion, but for the democratic nomina
tion was opposed by Milton Bryan.
In the third, fourth, fifth and 11th

SALEM, Or., Sept. 1. (Special.)
Samuel Sshortridge, nominated for
United States senator in yesterday's
republican primary election in Cali
fornia, was at one time a resident of
Salem and is well remembered by
Judge Peter D'Arcy, R. P. Boise and
other old-time citizens of this city.
Mr. D'Arcy, who was a close friend
of Mr. Shortridge, said the latter ar
rtved in Salem late in the '60s and
made his home with his sister, Mrs.
Clara Shortridge Folts, who at that
time conducted a grocery store. He
remained here about three years and
attended what was then known as the
old Fast Salem school. Being prac
tically without funds other than that
earned during vacation periods, he
made his way by acting as janitor of
the school which .he attended.
In this capacity, old-time residents
ox Salem said, Sam, as he was fa
mlliarly known here, arose during the
Winter months as early as 4 o'clock.
From that hour until 8 o'clock he at
tended to the fires in the school as
well as doing other work connected
with his duties as janitor. After dis
missal of the school In the afternoon
he swept the rooms and It was seldom
that he returned home until after
tfa'rk.
-John McNary, Salem attorney and
fcrother of Senator C. L. McNary, who
attended the Fast Salem school long
after Mr. Shortridge had departed for
other fields, today recalled how the

"Many times, I remember," said Mr.
McNary, "while we were being In

the students how the young man had

I will have no hesitancy in call

said.

the following: extract from a letter
purporting to have been written by
ne of the regional directors in the

ferred as one of the "money diggers."
I have been wondering if you will
get any reaction from the part of
Senator Harding's speech of accept

not want to discuss this phase of the
ltuation, but I would like to he ad

BARUCH STORY PROMPTER
BACKING OF DEMOCRATIC
PROPAGANDA DISCLOSED.
Financier's Cash Provides for Dis
tribution in West of "Uncle Sam
of Freedom Ridge."
NEW YORK, Sept. 1. It was Bern
ard M. Baruch, personally acting as
a "friend of the league of nations."
and not the democratic national com
mittee, who entertained a proposition
to distribute a short story "Uncle Sam
of Freedom Ridge," to several west
ern newspapers. Senator Harrison of
Mississippi, chairman of the speakers'
bureau, declared here today.
The senator gave' out a statement
to "clarify a situation," which he said
had arisen in the senate committee s
Investigation of campaign expendi
tures in Chicago.
"We did consider putting out the
story free of charge, but did not close
an agreement to do so when we
learned it would cost something over
$11,000," Senator Harrison said.
'Instead, we looked about for some
individual who might be sufficiently
interested In the success of the league
to spend his money in this way. We
found Mr. Baruch willing to undertake
the distributioni of the story. That is
the limit of the national committee s
connection with it."
Senator Harrison said he under
stood that sample pages of the story
had been mailed to newspapers to de
termine how many would use It if
it were released for publication. No
agreement had been made binding Mr.
Baruch to go through with the plan,
so far as he krvw, the senator added.
SECOND COURT PROPOSED
Charter Amendment to Be Submit
ted to City Voters.
The city council yesterday adopted
a resolution providing for the sub
mission of a charter amendment to
the voters in November authorizing
the establishment of a second munici
pal court.
According to Mayor Baker, the in
crease in traffic cases coming before
the municipal court has made it al
most impossible for one court to han
dle the business. 1
The charter amendment which will
be submitted gives the city council
authority to establish an additional
court, either to be operated in con
Junction with the present-day court
or as a night court.

DEMOCRAT C HMDS
HELD NOT TAINTED
No Federal Officials Solicited,
Marsh Avers.
COX EXPENSES ESTIMATED
Special Train to Coast Expected to
Cost $30,000 Outlay for
Mr. Roosevelt $8160.
CHICAGO, III., Sept. 1. Wilbur W.
Marsh, democratic national treasurer,
denied before the senate committee
today that special efforts had been
mada to get contributions from fed
eral officeholders.
"Never since I have been treasurer
has any letter asking money been
sent to a federal official, as such," he
said.
"You mean with your sanction?"
queried Senator Kenyon.
"With or without."
"Do you want to say that?"
"Yes."
Senator Kenyon then read a letter
from W. D. Jamieson, formerly dem
ocratic national financial director un
der Mr. Marsh, asking for lists of
names of possible campaign contrib
utors and specifying that any who
held federal posts should be so des
ignated. "I suppose that was done so you
would not send letters to them," Sen
ator Keffyon remarked.
"Possibly."
Two Millions Two Much.
Mr. Marsh thought the 1916 demo
cratic campaign "very intelligent, but
a bit extravagant in somo respects."
He said t he estimate which Chairman
White gave of $2,000,000 for this yeat
was too large.
"1 would be very well satisfied to
day if I knew we were going to have
$1,200,000," he said, and added that,
with this amount, the committee could
conduct as good a campaign as in 1916.
Expenditures thus far were $60,000.
Mr. Marsh told the committee that
the special train which will be used
to transport Governor Cox to the
Pacific coast will cost about $30,000.
He said the trip of Franklin D. Roose
velt cost approximately $S160.
Senator Kenyon called Mr. Marsh's
attention to a letter to an Iowa post
mistress from the Iowa democratic
club. Of which Mr. Marsh is a direct
or. asking for a contribution.
Drnlrrd Data Impolile.
From Mr. Marsh's books for 1919
Mr. Kenyon picked out a contribution
of $5 by William B. Colver of the
federal trade commission and asked
the witness If he could supply a com
plete list of all federal employes who
had given to the democratic funds.
Mr. Marsh said he could not.
Mr. Marsh said the republican and
democratic financial plans were very
much alike except that the former
employed "commercial travelers" to
get funds, while his party used
"mail-order plan." He had no criti
cism to offer of the republican plan
as such.
Senator Kenyon brought tip Parley
P. Chrlstensen's charge that Wall
street interests dominated both polit
ical parties. Mr. Marsh said he had
heard a lot about Thomas W. la
mont's suoporting the democratic par
ty and if that wan a fact he would
like to be informed of it.
Little Bank Aid Expected.
He replied to a question, that he
would not refuse a contribution from
Mr. Lamont nor consider it as "sin
ister." He said he did not expect to
get much from either international or
ether banking interests.
Senator Kenyon, asked Mr. Marsh
If he thought the $255,000 which the
republican budget provided for the
speakers' bureau was, in his opinion,
excessive.
"I wouldn't think so," he replied.
The William Barnes book bobbed
up again when Mr. Marsh produced
new copies of the photographs of
alleged subscription lists to the ex
pense of publishing the book.
He also produced indiviauai pieages
from a number of prominent men to
the Barnes book fund. He read one
signed by Jacob Ruppert. New York
brewer and baseball magnate, prom-
"Is that the same Jacob Ruppert
whose name appeared in the published
lkst of the reception committee for
Governor Cox at New York last Sat
urday?" Senator Kdge asked.
Barnes to Be Sabpenaed.
Senator Reed objected and
de
manded that Mr. Barnes be subpenaed
Senator Kenyon said the subpena
would be issued.
Mr. Marsh, In introducing the list
of pledges to the fund, suggested that
they violated the law against cor
porations subscribing to political cam
paigns, as some of the signers were
by individuals on behalf of corpora
tions He pointed to a subscription of
11000 from the Hudson Coal company
by L. F. Loree, president.
From the pledge sheets Senator
Reed read the following contributions:

Shame on Them.

Castoria.- Perhaps there are a few who know that there are imitations on
the market, and knowing this demand Fletcher's. It is to ALL motherhood then
that we call attention to the numerous imitations and counterfeits that may be
set before them.

Your Friend, the Physician.
The history of all medicines carries with it the story of battles
against popular beliefs : fights against prejudice : even differences of
opinion among scientists and men devoting their lives to research work;
laboring always for the betterment of mankind. This information
is at the hand of all physicians. He is with you at a moments call
be the trouble trifling or great. He is your friend, your household
counselor. He is the one to whom you can always look for advice
even though it might not be a case of sickness. He is not just a
doctor. He is a student to his last and final call. His patients are
his family and to lose one is little less than losing one of his own
flesh and blood.
Believe him when he tells you as he will that Fletcher's
Castoria has never harmed the littlest babe, and that it is a good
thing to keep in the house. He knows.

You Can't Brush or
Wash Out Dandruff
The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it. then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retir
ing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning
most. II not all. of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more ap
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much dan
druff you may have.
You will find, too, that all Itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus
trous, glossy, silky and Boft. and look
and feel a hundred times better.
vou can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work. Adv.
