NEW FINANCE COMMITTEE Organization To Be Perfected In Every County and Two Polls of the Voters Will Be Taken. - Republican warriors of the state met yesterday, and without extended ob sequies, buried the tomahawk of factional differences and Joined in launching a cam- . .Kb. mauna drBCm for Tfl ft and Sherman by the customary Republican J majority. This meeting; was held In the Republican headquarters In the Chamber of Commerce building and was attended by members of the state central commit tee and country chairmen representing 12 of the 34 counties of the state. About 40 attended the conference, which was presided over by W. M. Cake, chairman of the Republican State central com mittee. After a general discussion of the situa tion In Oregon Chairman Cake announced the appointment of a finance committee of five members, consisting of Ralph jd Williams. National committeeman, chairman; ex-State Senator Sig Slchel. ex-State Senator C. W. Hodson, Major J. P. Kennedy, chairman Multnomah County Republican Central Com mittee and H. W. Coe. This committee will have charge of the financial end of the campaign and will receive and dis burse all subscriptions. Chairman Will iams said yesterday before leaving for Eugene to attend the Shrlner festivltiea that he would call the committee to gether In Portland early next week and arrange for supplying the necessary am munition for actively starting the cam paign Immediately. Strong Committee Named. A majority of the members of the com mittee named to have charge of the campaign are strong friends of Senator Fulton and unfriendly both to Cake and Bourne. Williams. Slchel and Hodson are warm friends of the Senator, while Cake's slight of Major Kennedy has not had the effect of further cementing tha letter's friendship and loyalty to the state chairman. Friends of Senator Ful ton realise that the committee named by Chairman Cake yesterday is even stronger than the one proposed by telegraph to Cake while he was East. National Com mitteeman Williams, Senator Fulton arid Major Kennedy at that time proposed the appointment of an executive committee of five members and consisting of Na tional Committeeman Williams. George H Williams, Major Kennedy, Ben Reis la'nd and F. W. Leadbetter. But Cake de clined to answer the telegram or to ad vise party leaders here of his choice and the Fulton people are anything but dis pleased with the outcome for they feel that In at least one respect their patience has been rewarded. The resignation of Otis Patterson, of Grant County, as secretary of the state committee, was received and accepted and the committee authorixed Chairman Cake to name another secretary. This appoint ment probably will be announced early next week. . . , An organization Is to be perfected In every county under the direction of the State Committeeman or the chairman of the County Central Committee, these two ofricers to decide which shall take charge. In each county two polls of the voters will be taken. One will be compiled from the registration books by the county chairman who will classify the voters as to their political affiliations and Indicate the nationality and occupation of each voter. Another poll will be made by the precinct Committeemen who will be asked to ascertain the sentiment of each voter In his precinct. All of this information will be furnished to the National Com mlitee. Abundance or Enthusiasm. The meeting was a harmonious one and Its proceedings were conducted without a single discordant note. There, was plenty of enthusiasm among the members of the conference and It required only the mention of Tafta tamt to produce a demonstration. Chairman Cake and i otter member of tha state committee all agreed that there were no factional differences in the party and that the suc cess of the Presidential ticket was a con sideration that inspired all Republicans' to get together and to work together. James P. Kertchem, secretary of the Multnomah County central committee, added his testimony to the harmonious feeling he said prevailed among the members of the party. He charged that the newspapers were responsible for the reports that there was so much as a dif ference of opinion among Oregon Repub licans. m After the formal business of the meet ing had been transacted, different mem bers of the committee made Informal reports of political conditions In their re spective counties. None expressed any alarm over the unusual activity of the Democratic organization in this state and very generally predicted success for the Republican ticket In every county of the state. Among those making such reports were: B. E. Kennedy, of Baker; W A. Williams, of Benton: Uvy Stlpp, of Clackamas: A. C. Marstets. of Doug las: R. R. Butler, of Gilliam; L. M. Gale. . i . xx t. TnnM of Marion: B. F. Jnnes, of Polk; R. L. Turner, of Yam hill, and W. w. ateiwer. 01 ...r.. Speaking for Multnomah County. Major J P. Kennedy, coifhty chairman, said that all differences within the party having been burled, Taft was certain of the usual Republican majority In Mult nomah County, where, he suggested, the a W a Vt a -t F f O n only question was s i" ..uci. or Chafln. the Prohibition nominee, land In second place. An equally encouraging report from the country at large was made by Chair man Cake, based on his observations on his recent Eastern trip. He said he found only satisfaction In every state he visited over the nomination of Taft, who was regarded as the party's strongest candidate and the man entitled to the nomination. Like his associates on the state committee.
