Harding-Coolidge Club Gets Noteworthy Visits From Those Who
Take Out Membership Cards.
A near-riot featured the afternoon
session of the municipal court yester
day at the close of the case of Mrs.
Minnie Van Wart, resident of the
Lents district, charged with using
abusive lanpruage by her next-door
neighbor, Mrs. W. L. Smith, 6338
lsinty-sixth street Southeast.
About a dozen feminine witnesses,
subpenaed by City Attorney Stadter,
whose testimony had been ruled out
by Municipal Judge Rossman, insisted
on hoidincr a "pow-wow" in front of
the judge's desk and telling what
they know, in FPlte of court rules.
In addition Mrs. Amanda Quinalt,
resident of the Lents district, who had
been referred to as "stout" by L. W.
O'Kourke, attorney for the defense
during: the course of the hearing, de
clared her intention of "cleaning: up"
on the attorney in no uncertain terms.
Neither Fnrtlon Satisfied.
After Judge Rossman had fined Mrs.
Van Wart J50 neither faction to the
neighborhood "row" was satisfied.
Mrs. Van Wart gave notice of appeal
and her bail was set at ?100.
The trouble first started when the
two little boys of Mrs. Van Wart,
aged 6 and 8 years, with the assist
ance of a negro boy of about their
own ages, gave the two little girls of
Mrs. Smith a whipping on the way
home from school last Wednesday.
Mrs. Smith said that one of her girls
almost had an eye punched out.
As the result of the clash between
the children, the two mothers ex
pressed themselves freely in their
conversation with one another the
next evening. The hearing yester
day was the result of the names that
Mrs. Van Wart is declared to have
called her neighbor and the slurring
remarks she Is declared to have used.
Bo;i Broocht to Court.
In her own defense Mrs. Van Wart
introduced her two little boys and
the little colored boy to testify to
profane names which Mrs. Smith was
alleged to have called Mrs. Van Wart, j
It was this fact which Judge Ross- I
man declared had influenced him to
levy the fine. The judge declared that
in his opinion the taking: of the little
boys to the courtroom to testify
in a eaee of that character illustrated
the moral character of the mother.
'Children should not be yanked
from the cradle to testify in a case
of this character," declared the judge.
"This case illustrates clearly the
reason for so many delinquent chil
dren." he said. "It Is usually a case
of delinquent parents."
It was during the cross-examination
that Attorney O'Rourke took occasion
to refer to Mrs. Quinalt as "the stout
lady who has 'just testified."
"That man insulted me," declared
Mr. Quinalt, going toward the judge's
desk at the close of the hearing, the
light of battle in her eye. ""Such
language is not befitting any man,"
she continued.
"I am going to thrash him." she
declared, "and I can do it, too."
Attorney O'Rourke, former Multno
mah club football player and ex-serv
ice mani however, declined to accept
the challenge.
((A MERICA has been mighty good
- to me and I think that any
man or woman who was born
on foreign soil and "comes to this won
derful country to live should be very
grateful for the opportunity given, to
cast a ballot."- said Ernest V. Jensen
of 251 Couch street, who was born in
Denmark. "It makes a person braver
and stronger to feel he has the pro
tection and freedom insured by every
thing that the stars and stripes rep
resent. And the republican party is
the only political organization that
truly represent in every particular
the American ideal, as given by the
forefathers in the constitution which
President Wilson and his fellow dem
ocrats seem to hold so lightly." Mr.
Jensen, who is a decorator in agricul
tural and miniature work and who
holds several gold medals awarded to
him at various Pacific coast exposi
tions, made this statement when call
ing at the headquarters of the Harding-Cooling
Campaign club. Although
there are no dues attached to mem
bership in the club, the new member
said he wished to give a voluntary
cash donation and insisted on do
ing so.
Men and women of various types
and ages called the past week at the
headquarters in the Hotel Portland,
but none was more enthusiastic or
more active than W. H. O'Dell, a re
publican nearly 90 years of age, who
came to pledge his allegiance to the
Harding and Coolidge ticket. Mr.
O'Dell, who was born at Delphi, Ind..
December 25, 1S30, cast his first vote
in territorial days, and on admission
of Oregon to the Union voted for Lin
coln. As one looks at the tall, slen
der figure of this man. who talked
about the campaign with such inter
est, it is hard to realize that he will
see his 90th birthday at Christmas.
Mrs. Carrie Seward of 421 West
Park street, widow of the late Dr.
B. J. Seward, who was a great-nephew
of the distinguished' secretary of
state. William Henry Seward, was
another registrant at the Harding
Coolidge club. This bright little lady,
who was born at Milan, O., many
years ago, has a long memory of
republican history, for she not only
recalls the stirring events of "Uncle
Henry's" political career, but as the
daughter of Clark Waggoner, early
editor of the Toledo Blade, she is liv
ing again In memory the days when
her father fought rum in Ohio and
upheld the cause of the republican
party.
Another visitor was W. J. Stltt, who
came to Oregon 43 years ago, settling
in Washington county near Beaver-

ton, where he bought a farm from
Jacob Shram, a former auditor of
Multnomah county. Born in Ogden
county. New York, 77 years ago, Mr.
Stitt-was able to cast his first-vote
for Lincoln the second time he ran
for the presidency, and he has voted
a straight republican ticket ever
since. When a lad 17 years of age
in Wisconsin he heard Abraham Lin
coln debate with Douglas in a tent
before an audience of 8000 or 10,000
people. "We thought he had no
chance against the polished Stephen
A. Douglas," said Mr. Stitt, "but he
put up an argument that couldn't be
answered. He drove home his points
with his long, skinny finger, and his
remarkably clear voice reached every
part of the audience. When he had
finished there was nothing left of
Douglas. The crowd took Lincoln up
and carried him on their shoulders."
"I never made but one political
mistake in my life," said H. C. Wolfe
of 1436 Winona street, as he signed
a membership card, "and that was
when I voted for Cleveland. I was
so sorry for that that I have voted
the republican ticket ever since."
Royal J. Taylor, who lives at in
East Sixty-seventh street north, re
marked that Horace Greeley, the only
democrat he had ever voted for, had
died shortly afterward. "I don't want
to take any chances on voting for a
good man like Cox since I have such
bad luck with democrats," he con
cluded whimsically. "I am going to
vote for Harding."
Several veteransor the civil war,
who called last week at the Harding
Coolidge club, cast their first votes
for Lincoln while in the service.
Among' these was W. H. Reese, who
lives at Clovis. N. M. Mr. Reese, a
native son of Ohio, speaking of Sen
ator Harding, said: "He is a McKin
ley through and through. He is al
ways ahead and never allows small
and silly things to stop him." John
W. Campbell, who saw service in the
15th Illinois regiment of infantry,
as he registered his membership rem
inisced over his first vote for the re
publican ticket, which was cast in
1860. The ballot, of which he still
retains a copy, is headed by the name
of Abraham Lincoln for president and
Hannibal Hamlin for vice-president.
In the list of candidates for elector is
the name of General John M. Palmer,
who ran for president on the gold
democratic ticket in 1S96. Mr. Camp
bell, although SI years old, is taking
an active part in the present contest.
Another veteran. Cox R. Garrison, in
spite of his name, is going to vote
for Harding. , Mr. Garrison, who en
listed from Jefferson City, Mo., voted
for Lincoln in 1860. -

SUFFERED FOR YEARS;
NOW ABLE TO EAT
MOST ANYTHING
Mrs. Elizabeth Hall,
- of Beaverton, Oregon, writes:
Having: suffered for a number of years
with indigestion and constipation, I was
advised by my friends to try your BARK
ROOT TONIC and it has helped me
wonderfully.
Can eat so many things I was not able
to eat for years. . Am glad to say I can
eat most everything now. Gives one a
wonderful appetite and drives away that
tired feeling. I consider it an exceed-
ingly good Tonic.
Bark Root Tonic
A Mild Laxative; An Appetizer
A wonderful Tonic for strengthening
your run-down system and an excellent
blood purifier. If suffering from in
digestion or constipation give BARK
ROOT TONIC a trial. Sold by all re
