Enemy of Roosevelt and His Protege
Gives Ticket Only Lukewarm
Support May Result In
Democratic Senator.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, July 10. The day Taft was
nominated by the Chicago convention.
Senator Foraker 01 Ohio, Taft's most
bitter enemy, gave out an interview
In which he said:
"Secretary Taft becomes my candi
date for the Presidency, and I shall do
all I can to help him,"
Two weeks later Senator Foraker
made a speech in Cincinnati in which
he supported the Republican nominee
with faint praise, and severely de
nounced the principles for which Mr.
Taft stands; he declared that Taft be
lieved In maintaining the so-called
Roosevelt policies, and expressed the
opinion that the country had had too
much of those policies.
When Senator Foraker promised to
be good and support Taft it was well
understood that he was soliciting
Taft's support In his own campaign for
re-election, or at least seeking to in
duce the nominee to abandon his old
Idea of opposing him for re-election to
the Senate. Some of Foraker's friends
saw the Secretary and endeavored to
learn what his future course would be,
but the Secretary, while expressing
pleasure at the expression of Foraker's
support, declined to commit himself.
Taft Gave No Answer.
According to friends of the Republi
can nominee, Mr. Taft would not make
any promises to Foraker, because he
wanted to see what the Senator pro
posed to do; what kind of support he
proposed to give the ticket. Now that
Foraker has come out with praise so
faint as to be damning, these same
friends of Taft do not hesitate to say
that when the fight opens up in Ohio,
Mr. Foraker will have to meet the op
position of the Incoming Administra
tion, assuming the Republicans shall
carry the election next November.
Senator Foraker himself evidently
expects the opposition, and determined
opposition, of the Taft forces, for in the
Cincinnati speech. Senator Foraker, dis
cussing certain railroad legislation,
which he hoped to see passed, used this
language:
"I shall hope to be successful at the
next session, before I am eliminated."
This meant one of two things; either
he spoke seriously, and believed the
Taft opposition would defeat him for
re-election, or he spoke ironically and
defied the opposition of the Taft forces.
But in either event it signified his ex
pectation that he would have a fight to
make before the next Ohio Legisla
ture, with the Taft crow', arrayed
against him.
May Aid Some Democrat.
There Is a feeling In Washington that
Foraker, If he finds it impossible to
secure a re-election at the hands of the
Ohio Legislature, will quietly throw
his Influence to some Democratic can
didate, in the hope of preventing the
election of a Senator in harmony with
the Taft Administration. If Foraker
cannot be elected, certainly no Repub
lican of the Foraker faction can hope
to take his place, and any Republican
chosen by the Legislature must neces
sarily belong to the Taft faction.
Foraker has been so intensely bitter
towards Taft as to give color to the
belief that he would aid In the election
of a Democrat, rather than see a Taft
man given his seat. If this assump
tion proves correct and Foraker's atti
tude becomes well known over the
state, the Taft men declare it wll be
comparatively easy to bring about his
defeat.
SENATOR SCOTT "II BSD"
"QIKKHS" HIMSELF WITH TAFT
AXD HIS FRIENDS.
Gives Out Interview Intlmuting Re
publicans Will Suffer De
feat This Year.
OREGON! AN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, July Senator Nathan Bay
Scott, of West Virginia, has "queered"
himself with the Taft Administration,
If It becomes a reality. Scott is Na
tional committeeman from his state,
and during tho past three National
campaigns has been on the executive
committee having direct management
of the Presidential contest- When
Hanna was boss. Scott was something
of a figure at headquarters, but four
years ago. Committeeman Scott was a
two-spot, running errands for Chalr
mnn Cortelyou, but having absolutely
nothing to say about the conduct of
the campaign. The truth of the matter
is that Srott Is a wild and reckless
talker addicted to boasting and Cor
telyou did not propose to have any
body around headquarters making the
Roosevelt campaign ridiculous.
So lie informed Mr. Scott that he
could hang around, hut he must keep
quiet. Scott stayed around headquar
ters, but he was the most insignificant
figure there, and the most humiliated
before the campaign was over, and
was well sick of his job.
This year Scott was again chosen
National committeeman from his state
and placed on the executive committee,
as usual, but no sooner had his selec
tion been announced than Scott came
out with an Interview, utterly devoid of
tact and sensa, in which he said: "I
have been connected with the commit
tee for 12 years and through three suc
cessful campaigns. I do not want to
have my record broken." Therefore,
he said, ho would retire.
Now Scott undertook to convey the
s Impression that the Republican ticket
was going to be defeated: therefore, he
did not want to he in a position where
any part of the blame could be placed
upon his shoulders. That was a direct
misrepresentation, which fooled nobody
but Scott. He did not get out for the
reason he stated: he got out because he
knew that the Taft campaign would be
conducted by a committee in sympathy
with the party nominee, and ie knew full
well that only good Taft men would be
prominent In the conduct of the cam
paign. That eliminated him at the out
set, for he has never been a Taft man;
he was the worst sort of reactionary.
Scott got out of the way because he
knew that be would be snubbed again if
The Late Mrs. Harriet A. Douglass.
The funeral of Mrs. Harriet A.
Douglass, wife of Rev. William
- J. Douglass, who died at her
home, 1347 East Tenth street,
north, in Woodlawn, Friday
morning, was conducted yester
day afternoon from the Wood
lawn Methodist Church, and the
Interment was in Rose City
Cemetery. Rev. W. B. Hollings
head was in charge of the serv
ices, being assisted by several
local ministers, and the pall
bearers were ministers. Mrs.
Douglass was born in Dowaglao,
Mich., November 9, 1-861, and was
married to Rev. William J.
Douglass, August 20. 1884, and
for 24 years was the wife of a
minister, meeting all the exact
ing responsibilities faith fully.
Rev. and Mrs. Duglass came to
Oregon two years ago. After
spending one year at Independ
ence they removed to Woodlawn,
where Rev. Douglass had been
assigned by the Oregon confer
ence. They were transferred to
the Oregon conference in the
hope the change would benefit
Mrs. Douglass, but her disease
had progressed too far to be
stayed. Dr. Holllngshead com
mented on her high character
and lovable qualities. Her hus
band and two sons. Arthur Fred
and John Fay Douglass, survive
her.
he came around headquarters, just as he
was snubbed by Cortelyou four years ago.
The Taft people are not "sore" that Scott
eliminated himself: they are glad of It,
for he spared' them an unpleasant task;
but they are "sore" because he intimated,
In withdrawing, that the Republican
ticket was going down to defeat. In that
declaration. Scott placed himself in the
same category with Senator Bourne, of
Oregon, who has persistently declared
that Bryan will certainly be elected, now
that Taft is the Republican nominee.
Mr. Taft has a good memory, and he
also has a convenient notebook. In event
of a Republican victory next Fall, when
the reactionaries who have been throw
ing bricks at the Taft ticket, come
around asking for appointments, they will
find that their records have not been
overlooked.
HUMIDITY MUCH GREATER
Portland Feels Heat, Although Mer
cury Reaches Only 84.
Several drops of rain fell yesterday
afternoon, but not in quantities suf
ficient to wet the ground or even
damage the straw hats. There was
just a trace of rain. The temperature
was no greater than on the preced
ing day, but the humidity was much
greater. Showers and thunder storms
have occurred at scattered places in the
Pacific Northwest. In Portland the In
creased humidity caused people to suf
fer more from the heat than at times
when the thermometer was many de
grees higher.
The Indications are for continued fair
weather In Portland and cooler where
showers have occurred. Winds will
shift to the westward. The tempera
ture will continue considerably above
normal. ,

That there's no beer brewed the equal of GAMBRINTJS for table use was long ago settled by the
residents of Portland, who took the trouble to investigate.
Our wagons call everywhere in the residence districts, and where you see the GAMBRINXJS wagon
make regular calls, you may be sure that the doctor DOESN'T call often unless HE had to call FIRST
and advised GAMBRINXJS as a tonic. . ,
Your system NEEDS GAMBRINXJS this warm weather it's of great food value, and it helps you
to enjoy and assimilate the SOLID foods you take. ' '
All physicians recommend pure beer as an aid to digestion, as a tonic. There's sturdy strength in .
the barley that the malt is made from; there's nerve vigor and tonic properties in the hops that furnish
' its effervescence, and the slight percentage of alcohol in its composition gives just the mild stimulant '
needed for this season. Have GAMBRINXJS in the house constantly for yourself, for your family;
. ' drink it in quantities that insure good digestion and sound sleep, and you're prepared for the most
torrid days.

G. E. COLLINS IS PROMOTER
Asks Franchise for Use of County
Road to Kerby or Some
Point in the Illinois
Valley.
GRANTS PASS, Or., July 11. (Special).
This city has become the objective point
for railroad building. G. E. Collins and
associates, with ample capital, are here
for that purpose. Mr. Collins came be
fore the Commercial Club yesterday and
stated to that body that his company de
sired to build an electric road from here
to the Illinois Valley, a distance of about
30 miles. The Commercial Club was im
pressed with what he had to say and ap
pointed five members of that body as a
special committee to wait upon the
County Court, which is now in session,
with a view to securing right of way
along the county road from here to the
Illinois Valley.
No trouble ic expected rrom this source,
everything being a matter of form, for
the County Court feels that the outcome
would be a development of the south end
of the county.
Another proposition looked upon favor
ably is that Mr. Collins' company wishes
to take part in building the bridge across
Rogue River at this point. This item
alone will be quite a saving to the county
In dividing the expenses, besides afford
ing greater accommodation to the travel
ing public. It is conceded that these
parties are in touch with sufficient cap
ital to build the road within a short time.
The promoters ask for no favors other
than those which come up in the regular
routine of business. The matter of buy
ing stock by local capital and the usual
bonus for inducements are features that
have been entirely eliminated. The com
pany has a corps of surveyors ready to
take the field.
A railroad from here to Kerby or some
practical point in the Illinois Valley has
long b?en a tempting investment. There
are several factories In that vicinity
turning out cheese and dairy products,
and there will be no trouble to get a con
densed milk factory as soon as the trans
portation problem has been solved.
Freight from the Takilma smelter alone
would produce considerable revenue. Fur
thermore, there is ore from other mines.
cattle to be shipped out, products of the
creamery and millions of feet of timber.
Alderman Charges Bribery.
LOUISVILLE, Ky.. July 11. A dramat
ic denunciation by a member of the Board
of Aldermen in full meeting last nignt
was followed by the arrest of Lee Figg.
a prominent and wealthy contractor, on
the charge of bribery. Alderman C. A.
Hess, chairman of a committee having in
charge the paving contracts of the city,
was called on to make a report on certain
work, and he astonished the board by'
telling them that Figg had offered him
$500 to make a favorable, report on cer
tain contracts.
Close Down Lid a,t Ostend.
OSTEND, July 11. Hotel proprietors
and storekeepers here are greatly ex
cited over a report that the proprietor of
the famous gambling-rooms which bring
thousands of visitors to Ostend. has de
cided to transfer his establishment to
Schieveningen, a fashionable resort in
the Netherlands, because of the vigorous
application of the anti-gambling law. Re
cently the police have raided several of
the gambling-houses In Ostend, arrested
several occupants of the rooms and seized
stakes valued at thousands of dollars.

NEW YORK, July 11. An automobile

LA FDLLETTE AFTER FAME
CONDUCTS FILIBUSTER TO KEEP
IX PUBLIC EYE.
Speculation as to What Future of
Wisconsin Man Can Be in the
United States Senate.
ORBGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, July 4. It is the general opinion
in Washington that Senator La Follette
engaged in his filibuster on the currency
bill, not so much in the hope of defeat
ing that measure,' as to gain notoriety
and advertising which would be of as
sistance to him as a lecturer on the
Chautauqua circuit. La Follette Is said
to have confessed to a fellow Senator, in
the midst of his filibuster, that he could
not prevent the passage of the bill. More
over, upon leaving Washington, La Fol
lette announced that he would take a
brief rest, and then go on the lecture
platform to discuss the currency ques
tion and the events of the closing hours
of the recent session of Congress.
From this It Is clearly evident that
La Follette did not filibuster with any
hope of defeating the currency bill. His
reputation, from the press agent's stand
point is of course the greater because he
broke all Senate records- in speaking con
tinuously for 'nearly 19 hours. Taking
his colleague's estimate of him. La Fol
lette is not a good Republican, but he is
a good advertiser for himself.
It is difficult to figure-out just what
is going to become of La Follette in the
Senate. He was elected as a Republican,
claims still to be a Republican, yet al
most always votes with the Democrats,
and admits publicly that it is his purpose
to "continue to stir up trouble" in he
Republican ranks. According to his own
definition. La Follette may be a Repub-
Ilcan, but there are few men in the Sen
ate who so rate him.
-In this connection, - an interesting
"speech" was printed In a belated issue
of the Congressional Record, supposed to
have been delivered by Representative
Hitchcock of Nebraska, the most enthu
siastic Bryan man in Congress. The
speech was never delivered, but was writ
ten for campaign purposes, and will be
circulated during the campaign. In this
speech. Mr. Hitchcock undertakes to read
Senator La Follette out of the Rgp u b-
II can party and into the ranks of the
Democracy.
"The followers of La Follette can find
no place within the Republican camp this
year," says Hitchcock. "Their leader
has been ostracized and repudiated by
the Republican organization. He has .
fought most desperately and brilliantly
the currency bill, which was the leading
Republican party measure, and they will
in this campaign naturally join the army
of Bryan men recruited from the Repub
lican rAks."
The isrrughs Idea!
HEALS
o SORES AMD ULCERS
Sores and Ulcers are indications of impure blood. They show that the
circulation has become infected with germs and poisons, which are being1
constantly discharged into the open place to irritate the delicate nerves,
tissues and surrounding flesh and keep the sore in a state of inflammation
and disease. Whether these impurities in the blood are the result of some
debilitating sickness, an old taint from a former disease, or whether it is
hereditary bad blood, there is but one way to cure sores and ulcers, and that
is to purify the blood. Washes, salves, lotions, etc., are often beneficial J
secause ol tneir cleansing, antiseptic effects, but nothing applied to the
surface can reach the blood, where the real cause is, and therefore cannot
cure. S. S. S. is the remedy for sores and ulcers of every kind. It gets down
to the very bottom of the trouble and removes every trace of impurity or
poison, and makes a lasting cure. S. S. S. changes the quality of the circu
lation, so that instead of feeding the diseased parts with impurities, it
nourishes and heals-the irritated, inflamed flesh and causes the ulcer to
fill in with healthy tissue by supplying it with pure, rich blood. Book
