THE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, MAY 24, 1923 OryLYFEWBOURBDNS iiE I OLYMPIA Washington Convention Is to Be Opened Today. SHORT PLATFORM LIKELY star complaining: witness In police court yesterday. Schachtel had Conn arrested for using prolane and abusive language, but when the case came for trial yes terday Schachtel was too modest to let the court know just what the pro fanity was. "I'm too much of a gentleman to use such words In front of your honor, the magistrate," protested Schachtel. "Go ahead, I guess I can stand 'em," pleaded Judge Ekwall. "In fact, I might get a line on a few new ones." But Schachtel stood pat. He abso lutely declined to profane his lips even if it cost him the chance to pun ish Cohn. "Very well, the case Is dismissed," ordered the court, and Cohn smiled gleefully as he left the courtroom. Poll Tax Repeal and Reduced Tax ation Are to Be Featured Planks ; Narcotics Topic. PTJGET SOUND BUREAU. Olympia. Wash.. May 23. Washington's demo cratic hosts invaded the state capital today in modest numbers for their etate convention to be held tomorrow. Until late this afternoon there were very few on hand. More came later tonight, but the convention will be far short of us allotted number of delegates unless there is a rush from all directions early tomorrow. Indications are that the platform to be adopted will be short and snappy. The advisory platform committee, sit ting in executive session tonight, has plenty of inducement to the use of many words, but according to the Judgment of those who seem to be in position to control, the risk of boring the voters by too much language is to be avoided. Poll Tax Repeal Favored. Poll-tax repeal and reduced taxa tion will be the featured planks. Something will be said against the narcotic drug traffic and attention will be given to some of the special demands of women delegates who are working in harmony with the state women's legislat've council. Governor Hart's administration is due for condemnation, .of course, though some difference of opinion developed tonight as to how far the democratic party may safely go in criticising or condemning the civil administrative code. The republican contention that the code already has saved the state government much money and is likely to save much more is accepted by some influential democrats as fairly well proved. De nunciation of the code might there fore prove a boomerang. Primary Repeal Advocated. Some of the democratic delegates, early on the ground, are outspoken for repeal of the direct primary law, but considerations of expediency are likely to dominate the convention in this matter and the chances are that the primary will be left alone or at the most be made the subject of recommendations for very moder ate changes. The convention will "assemble at 10:30 tomorrow at the American Le gion hall and will be called to order by George F. Christensen of Steven son, chairman of the state committee. Dr. Edwin J. Brown, mayor-elect of Seattle, will be temporary chairman, and will deliver the keynote speech, which, like the platform, will be brief. The resolutions committee was called in executive session tonight by John B. Fogarty, chairman, and the etate central committee 'also was called in closed meetings, presumably to discuss financing and campaign plans along the lines unfolded to a part of the committee at Spokane re cently by Judge Cordell Hull of Ten nessee, national chairman. " Mr. Chadwiek To Be Chairman. Stephen J. Chadwiek, ex-chief jus tice of the state supreme court, is to be the permanent chairman of the convention. Judge Chadwick's friends have worked out this plan with a view to asserting his allegiance .to the democratic -party which was brought into question at the time certain re publican influences were trying to get him to be a republican candidate against Senator Poindexter. Making Judge Chadwiek chairman of the democratic convention will also give recognition to the fact that he is not unwilling to be considered as a possible democratic candidate for gov ernor. J. H. Roberts of Centralia is slated to be secretary of the convention. From the manner in which things were shaping up tonight, tomorrow's cession is destined to end before the afternoon is far advanced. The ma jority of the delegates were here to night. Ex-Representative Dill arrived at noon today, and during the afternoon was busily engaged in furthering his unannounced but generally known candidacy for the democratic nomina tion for the United States senate to Bucceed Mr. Poindexter. DBPHEUM CLOSES TODAY MATIXEK TO END SEASON OF VAUDEVILLE HERE. Girl Show With Colorful Gowns to Be Feature of Last Perform ance in Portland. The Orpheum season at the Heilig will close this afternoon with a show which has been praised generally as, the best of the vaudeville year. The Orpheum will reopen at the Heilig Sunday matinee, September 10. and until that time two-a-day vaudeville will be absent from Fortland. The Orpheum's farewell show is one especially selected in New York to close the season in the various Or pheum houses in the Pacific north west. It is a girl show de luxe, Harry Carroll, famous song composer, being the headliner with his company, wnich includes Tom Dingle, Patsy Delaney, the Love twins and "Six Slick Chicks."

In eastern Oregon, where it was supposed that Olcott was not strong, the votes of that section have brought about his nomination. Boards Hurry Wort. Olcott led Hall everywhere in eastern Oregon, save Umatilla, and he also led in central Oregon. Hall's big vote came from the densely popu lated districts between the Cascades and the seacoast. Counties carried by Hall were Clackamas, Clatsop, Columbia, Coos, Curry, Douglas, Jackson, Josephine, Lane, Multnomah, Tillamook and Umatilla. Olcott led in Baker. Ben ton, Crook, Deschutes, Gilliam, Grant, Harney, Hood River, Jeffer son, Lake, Klamath, Lincoln, Linn, Malheur, Marion, Morrow, Sherman, Union, Wallowa, Wasco, Washington. Wheeler. Patterson carried Polk and Yamhill. Owing - to the intense interest attached to the contest for- governor, canvassing boards are expediting their work as rapidly as possible. Multnomah will be the last to report officially, owing to the large vote cast. When the county boards have made their formal canvass, they re port to the secretary Ot state, who tabulates these returns and then issues the statement as to the result. Owing to the time required for the canvass in Multnomah, a couple of weeks will probably elapse before the secretary of state gives his oin cial announcement. Other Contests Recalled. This is not the first time that there have been very close elections in Oregon. The contest between Harry M. Cake and Jonathan. Kourne, jr. for the nomination for United States senator, was so close that a remote nrecinct in the mountains of eastern Oregon gave Bourne the victory. The contest between the late Henry L. Benson and Charles L. McNary for justice of the supreme court,- was so close that a small precinct in Curry county won the place on the bench for Benson. Later McNary was ap pointed to the United States senate. While no fiarures are available from Baker. Grant or Malheur counties on public service commissioner, rnomas K. Campbell now appears to be an easy winner. The vote: ,u.n 37.289 Thiehoft ..!!".!". v-?S'25I Layman - - ,lg,w turning and grandeur of presentation the Harry Carroll act has no equal in present-day big-time vaudeville.

POEMS TO BE IN BOOK Grace E. Hall's Verses Accepted by New York Publisher. Grace E. Hall, who has been writing versa for The Oregonian for four years and a half, has Just received word from New York that Dodd, Mead & Co. have accepted a book of her poems.

Many of the poeans to be included In the cook have been published in The Oregonian.

Encouragement in the efforts of the Portland council of Boy Scouts to speed up the deliveries of Boy Scout uniforms through having them man ufactured by Portland firms instead of going through the national head quarters, has been received in a tele gram from James E. West, chief scout executive at New York, to James E. Broekway, local scout executive. West stated that with reasonable notice a radical change may be made from the past proceedure of having all uniforms ordered through the head office, if it appears advantage ous to the scout movement. Representatives from several of the coast cities are now in New York urging that scouts from the eight western states may be permitted to order their uniforms from some west ern city, so that the present delays of weeks and even months in filling orders may be avoided. The regu lation as to scout supplies was made in the interests of uniformity, but the organization has grown so that the orders can no longer be filed effi ciently through one office.
