DEWIDCRATS RALLY
FOR PARTY TICKET
Meet at Baker Theater and
; Pledge Support to Bryan
! and Kern
GEARIN IS CHIEF SPEAKER
Governor Chamberlain Is Xot Pres
ent, hat Many Other Prominent
Politicians Take Part During
. Course of Long Programme.
' TVmocratJe speakers expended hours of
eratory and the local Democratic populace
ounded many a shout and yell at the
Baker Theater last ntght at the Bryan
and Kern ratification rally under the
uplces of the Democratic County Cen
tral Committee. It was the opening of
the "whoop-it-up-for-Bryan" campaign in
Thetiieater was well-filled and many of
the old-time and oft-defeated local lead
ers were present. It was strictly a
Democratic gathering, but conspicuous
by his absence was Governor Chamber
lain. A previous engagement prevented
Ills appearance, explained a letter that
was read from him.
Many on Programme,
i Ex-Senator Gearin was the principal
speaker of the evening, though there
were so many others who occupied
more than the allotted time in speak
ing that many of the audience departed
before he began. Mayor Lane also
spoke, as did Senator M. A. Miller of
Lebanon: R. A. Harris, editor of the
Labor Press; Attorney John H. Steven
son, and others.
What wasn't said against Taft was
omitted only because of a lack of time,
and what wasn't said In favor of Bryan
was omitted only for the same reason.
The "Peerless One" must surely be
smiling at his Lincoln home this morn
ing, and the big War Secretary must
surely have been touched by one of the
tray breezes of frigid atmosphere
that were blown in his direction.
Judge Thomas O'Day presided at the
meeting. He was Introduced by G. H.
Thomas, chairman of the committee.
Judge O'Pay spoke at length, exceed
ing by several minutes the flve-minute
limit which had been placed upon the
speakers, But-the audlenoe didn't ob
ject and apparently regretted it when
be ceased.
' Sure Bryan Will AVIn.
That Oregon will cast Its electoral vote
for Bryan was the current of the entire
flood of oratory- Judge O'Day said It.
Jtayor Lane emphxiiied it: Senator Mil
ler insisted upon It. and all the speakers
agreed that It was as good as an accom
plished fact already.
It's a long time since I have essayed
a political speech." said Judge O'Day.
for I've been busy granting divorces.
.i t n rv tn PAUM one more di
vorce, which Is' to divorce the people of
this stale irom me poiuum iiuj
-v.i.ti ha. hplri them."
He declared that Bryan Is a man
vim needs no great piatiorm penina
him. He Is a platform all by himself,
the speaker said. The Democratic can
didate, he said, represents no great of
fice or officer, but Is as well known
as even President Koosevelt himself.
PLAX CAMPAIGN FOR BH.YAX
Members or Democratic State Cen
tral Committee Hold Council.
"You may say." announced Milton A.
Miller. Democratic National committee
man for Orcon. and Samuel Garland,
member of the executive committee of
the Democratic state central committee,
that wo have arranged matters today
so that Bryan will surely carry Oregon."
Whereat the twin Democrats from Leb
anon looked as confident of Bryan's elec
tion as of tomorrow's sunrise if that
were possible.
They had Just emerged from the politi
cal eyrie of Alex Sweek. chairman of
thk Democratic central committee, where
with that gentleman and J. B. Ryan, sec
retary of the state central committee,
and John Montag. treasurer of the Demo
cratic hosts, they had been laying plans
for the defeat of Taft.
They declined to tell the amount of
campaign money on hand or owing or ex
pected to flow Into the party coffers.
They announced, however, that the treas
urer had enough to hire three rooms for
party headquarters, for occupancy by the
state central committee and by Milton A.
Miller, who represents the National com
mittee. One of the campaign plans is to Issue
a lanse Quantity of literature, urging
voters to support Bryan.
Another matter of which the campaign
managers will bo very careful Is the non
partisanship of George El Chamberlain,
whom a majority of the members of the
Legislature are pledged by Statement No.
1 to elect United States Senator. The
Democratic managers know that they
most strive for Bryan as partisan Dem
ocrats and are anxious lest this may in
jure Chamberlain's non-partisan hold on
Republican members of the Legislature.
Therefore they will endeavor to keep
the Presidential election apart and sep
arate from the Senatorial. They are
aware, however, that Republicans will do
Just the reverse and do their utmost to
inject the partisanship of the Presidential
election Into the Senatorial election.
Chairman Sweek and National Com
mitteeman M. A. Miller were authorized
to rent suitable rooms for-headquarters
and to employ a force of stenographers,
clerks and other employes sufficient to
transact the great amount of business
that Is expected to devolve upon the
managers of the campaign.
The chairman will name the members
of the various committees during the
early part of this week. Headquarters
will also be opened this week and the
real campaign begun.
"We expect to carry Oregon for Bryan
by between 250 and 25.0u." said Attor
ney John B. Ryan, who Is a member of
the committee. He spoke In apparent
seriousness. "It's a cinch that we will
carry it. but It is too early in the game
to estimate the majority."
Little Rain During July.
The meteorological summary for the
month of July. Just issued by the local
Weather Bureau, shows that during that
period the precipitation wis but .05
Inches, which Is the lightest rainfall for
this month since the establishment of
the bureau, with the exception of the
