TWO DAYS ARE LEFT
CLOSING DAYS FIND
GffllK RUSHED
All Redouble Efforts to Carry
Multnomah.
Electioneering on Friday, When
Primaries Will Be Held, Is
Absolutely Prohibited.
Two more days remain of the pri
mary campaign today and tomorrow.
Electioneering i3 absolutely prohib
ited Friday when the primaries are
held.
These closing days find all of the
candidates for governor redoubling
their efforts to carry Multnomah
county. The campaigning is pro
gressing toward a tropical finish and
practically all of the gubernatorial
aspirants on the democratic and re
publican tickets are on the firing
line in person to see that no trick is
overlooked and to take advantage of
any quirk In the political upheaval
which might inure to their own bene
tit. tip-State Xot Neglected.
While the up-state is not being
neglected, the candidates realize that
they must put in their best licks in
Portland, where more voters can be
eeen in a day than in any other place
end where the situation is shifting
around constantly. With interviews,
. conferences and things of that sort,
the candidates have little time for
Bleep for they want to avail them
selves of every hour between now
and the time campaigning must cease.
Louis E. Bean arrived on the battle
field Saturday and is carrying on his
operations from the Imperial hotel. I.
Ii. Patterson is also here and is hold
ing almost constant conferences in
bis headquarters in the Imperial.
George A. White's headquarters are
In the Morgan building and he, too, is
marshaling his forces for the last of
fensive. J. D. Lee is among those
present and Charles Hall has a bat
tery of typewriter machines1 address
ing envelopes while he, himself. Is
urrounded by his managers and lieu
tenants. Governor Olcott Absent.
Of all the candidates, Governor Ol
cott alone is not in Portland. How
ever, a number of the governor's ac
tive supporters are industriously
looking after his interests and in the
past few days thousands of Olcott's
cards have appeared on the streets.
Among the democratic brethren,
"Webster Holmes is on the spot, lo
cated at the Whealdon annex; Harvey
G. Starkweather is planning his vote
getting from his office in the Broad
way building and Walter M. Pierce
lias left his affairs in the hands of
his friends while he has temporarily
hurried back to his stock farm in
Union county. Will E. Purdy has
Ibeen flitting through town on his
iway to meet speaking dates.
Keen Interest Developed.
Keen interest In the primaries did
hot develop until 10 days ago and
since then it has commanded more
attention until now, at least Insofar
as Portland is concerned, the people
are thoroughly aware that an elec
tion Impends. There is today as much
talk of the primaries as there would
be of a presidential election, which
shows how the voters have been
stirred up by the developments of
recent date.
Each new day more special "tick
ets" appear until those who make
collections of these by-productions
of campaigns find i: impossible to
keep up with the steady flow of new
offerings, suggestions and recom
mendations. About 15 tickets are now
In circulation, only a percentage ot
which comply with the law with re
spect to having the name and ad
dress of the author. 'Many do not
possess even the printer's insignia of
identification.

of 2500 cases in a

down cost of op

plan and go Detroit one better by
completely unifying all the courts of
the county under one administrative
head." ,

Rico with the army of occupation and
attached to department headquarters
at San Juan.

Chief Enters Twelfth Year.
ABERDEEN, Wash., May 16. -(Spe
cial.) William Tamblyn entered his
12th year as head of the Aberdeen
fire department when he was reap
pointed for another year recently by
Mayor Bailey. The chief served with
the volunteer fire department from
1904 to 1908 and was named captain
of the paid department when it was
organized in 1908. He was appointed
chief in 1911 by J. W. Parks, mayor.
With each change in city executives
he has been reappointed without a
dissecting vote in the council.
Ei-Commlssloner and Now Candi
date Straightened Out Tangle
Following Depression of '90s.
Reorganization of Multnomah coun
ty's finances and putting Its affairs
back on a cash basis are the promise
of William L. Lightner, candidate for
nomination for county commissioner
in the republican primaries. From
May, 1901, to January 1, 1917, Mr.
Lightner served as a commissioner
of this county, so that he comes be
fore the people in the primaries well
equipped with experience and an
intimate knowledge
of the affairs of
the -county.
In that period of
years Mr. Lightner
demonstrated that
it is possible, by
the use of sound
business methods,
to do a vast amount
of construe tion
work and still keep
the county on a
cash basis. For ex
ample, after the
commissioners with
whom he served
cleared up the tangled mess following
the years immediately previous to
their administration, several great
enterprises were undertaken.
The Multnomah county courthouse
was built and paid for. It cost ap
proximately 11,600,000, equipped. In
cluding the county jail. The mag
nificent central library, approximat
ing $400,000, was constructed. The
county farm of some 200 acres, with
buildings costing $150,000, was ao
quired. All of these were provided
and the county kept on a cash basis.
During the 12 years of service,
Mr. Lightner was in office when the
reconstruction period followed the
financial depression of the '90s. When
he went into office the county was
"In the red," as it Is at present, and,
through his management the finances
were straightened out and Multno
mah was placed on a firm footing
and kept on a cash basis throughout
the remainder of his administration.
With the county once more in poor
financial standing, Mr. Lightner is
convinced that he can once again
drag it out of "the red" and do awa"
with the thousands of dollars of out
standing warrants on which the tax
payers are forced to pay interest.
Supporters of Mr. Lightner point
out that the best way to judge the
promises of 'a. candidate is to study
his past performances. They contend
that having displayed ability to over
come one difficult financial situation,
he has the training, capacity and
willingness to accomplish the feat
again.
"If Multnomah county were a
private business concern instead of
a public corporation, it would long
ago have been called into court by
its creditors," says Mr. Lightner.
"Not only is the county's financial
condition serious from any point of
view, but in my opinion when the
current liabilities exceed the current
assets by more than $5000 the in
debtedness is unconstitutional. The
one thing which is of most concern
to the taxpayers of this county now
is to get it back on a cash basis and
to that work I am willing to devote
my time and energy. If elected "I
will be at my office in the courthouse
all day and every day, for the affairs
of this big corporation of $300,000,
000 are too important to be dealt with
as a side line of a commissioner's
private business."
Mr. Lightner believes that the law
giving county commissioners $50 a
month for handling the business of
the interstate bridge Bhould be re
pealed, as this is an injustice to the
taxpayers.
"County business should be con
ducted with the fullest degree of
economy and efficiency," declares Mr.
Lightner, "and there should be
neither waste nor extravagance. When
large capital outlays are proposed,
no matter what their character, the
end to be served and the benefit to
be derived should be carefully
weighed, and the cost counted before
the work is begun, ah public worn
should be carefully estimated and
there should be no deficiencies.
For nearly half a century Mr.
Lightner has been a resident of Portland.

OLTMPIA, Wash., May 16. Spe

his return from Washington, D. C,
where he attended a conference of
state foresters with federal forestry
officials to work out a more equitable
plan for distribution of the fund.
Advantage goes to soutnern states.
Mr. Pape said, because of their prox

advantage of lower freight rates.
Though these states have not as much

A welj-taown skin specialist says that pimples are "signal flags of dan
ger" often indicating errors in diet
Indeed pimples are so frequently associated with faulty habits of
eating and improper digestion that the first thing to do is to see that
oar food is right.
Fresh yeast s a wonderful corrective food for these skin disorders.
Fletschmann's Yeast is rich in the elements which improve appetite
and digestion and which keep the intestines clean of poisons. .
Physicians and hospitals all over the country are recornrnending
Fteischmann's fresh yeast for pimples and boils. It gets right at the
basic cause of these complaints. ,
Eat 2 to 3 cakes of FTeischmann's fresh yeast daily before or be
tween meals to keep your skin healthy. Plaice a standing order with
your grocer. . .
