WETHERBEE CAMP
READY FOR FRAY
Candidate for Mayor Will Cen
ter Fight in Assembly and
Quit if Beaten.
HIS FRIENDS FEAR TRAP
I'ctline lo l'lcdpe Their Support in
Primaries to Republican Who
Wins Out in Council of
Party Delegates.
Riileatepplng what tney regarded as a
trick to entrap them supporters of Dr.
J. R. Wetherbee, at a conference In the
Stearns building last nlsht. refused to
consider a resolution pledging them and
their candidate, should -Wetherbee not be
Indorsed by the Republican assembly next
"Wednesday, to the support of the candi
date receiving that Indorsement. The in
troduction of this resolution followed a
confirmation of the report that Dr. 'YVeth
erboe would not continue to be a candi
date. If the assembly failed to Indorse him.
The resolution was withdrawn before a
vote couid oe taken on Its adoption. The
meeting was attended by about SO friends
of Dr. Wetherbee.
A. H. Devers convened the conference
a chairman and commended Dr. Weth
erbee as a desirable candidate for Mayor
and as a man 'who could defeat Mayor
Lane, "the perennial candidate, who prob
ably would run for Mayor until he got a
better office or died.- The man needed
as a candidate in the' coming election.
id Mr. Devers. should be such a man as
Dr. Wetherbee. who had never been Iden
tified with any of the factional political
fights in this city or state.
Thinks Wires Are Working.
1. l.ang expressed dlsappointmbent be
cause of the small, attendance, which he
attributed to be due to the fact that "po
litical influences" were being employed to
disorganize the Wetherbee supporter's. He
spoke In a commendatory way of the
nunlllcatione- of Dr. Wetherbee as a can
didate for Mayor, and said he was such
a man as could lead the people of Port
land out of the "provincial rut" Into
which the present administration had
landed the municipality. Mr. I.ang also
refrred to the fact that during tho after
noon he had been asked to sign a petition
In the interest of Joseph Simons candi
dacy aa Mayor, but had declined. Inqulr
liuf where the petition had been prepared.
Mr. Lang said lie telephoned to the ad
dress, only to Hud that It was entirely
discredited by the men who were said to
he responsible for Its circulation. This
Incident, contended Mr. Laos, was only
one of the- various schemes that were
Veins hatched for the purpose. If possi
ble, of winning the friends of Dr. Weth
erbee from the support of his candidacy.
C. C. Chapman argued that the success
or Dr. Wetherhee's candidacv depended
In large measure on the Individual efforts
of his friends, and with that suggestion
those attending the meeting were fur
nished with a list of the delegates to the
assembly from their respective wards,
with the understanding that each would
see as many of the delegates early this
week as possible In behalf of Dr. AVeth
erbee's candidacy.
Ask Questions of Delegates.
J. F. Kertchem. member of- tho Repub
lican City Outral Committee, and W. W.
Cox. one of the delegates to the assembly"
attended the meeting and gave tho men
In charge of Pr. Wethrrbees candidacv
a real taste of politics. Kertchem started
the thing by lauding Dr. Wetherbee as a
strong candidate for Mayor, who, he be
lieved, "had a good cham-e before the as
sembly and stood well among the boys."
Kertchem apologised for his presence at
the conference, and said that, while some
of the newspapers luul referred to him
h a "peanut politician." he assured tho
Vetherbce forces that he firmly believed
In the direct primary . law.
In W. W. Cox. one of the delegate to
v ednesday's assembly. Kertchem had an
able lieutenant. Cox followed in a general
talk on the need of organization among
Republicans, and heartily indorsed the
work of the central committee In arrang
ing for an assembly. "But before I can
support nr. Wetherhee before that con
vention." he said, 'T desire to know If he
will continue to lie a candidate, after that
emhly has been held, should lie- not re
etve its lndi)icment."
"Dr. Wetheihre has said that he con
sidered It would be Impolitic and iniuclt
clous for him to continue as a candidate
if he should not be indorsed bv the as
sembly." answered Mr. Devers. "I do not
know that he has changed h's mind."
Will Not lIelge Themselves.
This only half satisfied Mr. Oox. who
Inter tired another question at Chairman
Kevers as to whether or pot Dr. Weth
erbee. if turned down by the assemblv
would support the successful candidute it
was at this point that B. u Thompson
presented a motion committing the sup
port of Dr. Wetherbee and his friends to
the candidacy of the candidate that is In
dorsed by the assembly. This brought Mr.
Iang and a. V. Johnson to their feet
They held that It would be unwise to bind
Dr. Wetherbee and themselves to any ac
tion that might be taken by the assembly.
They intimated strongly that there were
men In attendance at the conference
who, apparently desired to see such a
resolution adopted. They Insisted that
any such action would be Ill-advised
Mr. ' Thompson at ' first Insisted that
n 1 n . r- w . ,
- -.ipiti to SOCK
the indorsement of the assembly for
the Mayoralty he would onlv be show
ing his good faith' by agreeing in turn
to support the successful candidate.
Later. Mr. Thompson withdrew the mo
tion, explaining tiint it appeared that
Dr. Wetherbee had been entrapped Into
making his original declaration in
which he j,al, he would retire as a
candidate if he did not receive the
assembly indorsement.
Jerry K. Kronuush and R. A. Mar
shall debated the advisability of Dr.
etherl.ee s determination to seek the
Indorsement of the assembly, but said
that sii.ee their candidate had re
solved on that action thev Intended
to support Mm to the finish. R. U
Sabln heartily indorsed the candidacy
of Dr. Wetherbee. also the assembly
which he said would exert an influ
ence in behalf of Kepubllcanism and
would hist tlnougb the prtmarv cam
paign and the election which followed.
In the course of his remarks, Mr.
Marshall made some caustic flings at
the direct primary law. which, he said
had given the people of this state a
Democratic tlovernor and a Democratic
Untied States Senator, in addition to
numerous other Democratic officers
and. worst of all. "a Mayor who is
ruining our city."
Ir. Wetherbee-. Statement.
Mv.srs. Brouaugh. Unit and Johnson
er appointed a committee to carry
a report of the conference to Dr.
r.iJi advised that at a meeting- of
citizens, held April 3. with reference to
the campaign for the nomination for
-viayor ot this city. Inquiry was made
as to my position with reference to in
dorsement by the assembly of 600.
which mets next Wednesday.
I am a citizens' candidate for in
dorsement by that assembly and other
representative Republican organiza
tions. e
I lave absolute confidence in the
character of the men named as dele
gates and shall abide their decision,
provided I am indorsed with the fol
lowing: conditions understood:
1. That I have not and will not make
Vy, ".V es to any individual or group
ot individuals, corporation or group of
corporations, regarding the conduct of
the ofl.-e. except that I will give the
.ffire the very bst business adminis
tration of which I am capable.
2. That I shall administer the office
without fear or favor; that laboring
man. business man and capitalist shall
receive absolutely fair and square
treatment. I consider that everv citi
zen of Portland, whether dependent on
the sweat of his brow, upon the earn
ings of corporations in which he Is in
terested, or upon the collection of rents
har rights which any honest man is
bound to respect.
lTnlet-s the assembly of 600 indots
me on this platform. I am not a candi

I allow my name to be presented at the

ST. YVES WINS MARATHON

losing ground. St. Yves covered the two
miles in 10:.
There was little change In the third
mile. Shrubb seemed to bo trying to
worry Dorando by sprinting for a few
yards, then falling back behind the
Italian or running t hi oihnnr
ing to him. He played a waiting game'
.. ,...,. ul me crowd picked him to
win. St. Yves gained another lap on
Hayes in the fourth mile, but the little
American only smiled and plugged away
at the same even pace.
In the fifth m .e there was a touch
of excitement, lor which the crowd had
waited. Shrubb, unable to stand the sight
of the flying frenchman so far ahead
set out to catch him. He passed Dorando
and soon cut St. Yves" lead to 50 vards
finally coming on even terms with him in
the sixth mile. St. Yves looked uneasy
and sprinted desperately, soon leaving
Shrubb far behind. Shrubb laughed
and allowed him to go, dropping back
with Dorando and Ixmgboat- The Italian
then started out to -u t , .1, v, i. v.
man cutting his lead, to So yards at the
clm ui me Bixm mue, tne time for which
was 33 minutes. El 1-5 seconds. Longboat
seemed to have difficulty holding the

relatively jio change.

Shrubb Catches Frenchman.
The ninth mile brought Longboat to the
front of the pack, that followed St.
Yves. He had drawn up to within 50
yards of St. Yyes in the tenth mile,
when Shrubb started a sprint that soon
brought him on even terms with the
Frenchman. He passed St. Yves and
finished the ten miles in 67 minutes 161-5

The 14th mile saw some pretty jockey
ing. Hayes was a full mile behind the
leaders at the beginning: of the 15th, but
was showing signs of waking up. Shrubb
took, nourishment and slowed up a bit,
while St. Yves kept on. Dorando gained
some of his lost ground in the 16th mile,
and passed Hayes again. Longboat here
showed signs of weakness and was losing
ground. In the 17th St. Yves carried
Shrubb along at a furious sprint, while
Longboat suddenly stopped In front of his
training stand and was rubbed vigorously
by his trainers. After three or four min
utes he resumed, but he was plainly leg
weary. Shrubb Weakens, Longboat Quits.
St. Yves suddenly started a fast clip in
the ISth mile, which brought him a half
lap ahead of Shrubb in less than a mile
This was the first indication of Shrubb's
weakening, and he appeared to he using
his utmost strength to prevent the French
man gaining a lap. longboat about this
tune dropped out of the race, thoroughly
spent.
St. Yves gained the coveted distance on
Shrubb In the 20th mile, and there was a
great roar from the crowd, while the band
again honored the leader by playing the
French .national anthem. St. Yves' time
for 20 miles was 1 hour, 57 minutes and
24 -B seconds, more than two minutes
ahead of the Marathon record for the dis.
tance.
Hayes was running strongly in the
twenty-first mile and was cutting
down rapidly his distance previously
lost, while Shrubb had slowed almost
to a walk. Shrubb sat down for three
minutes-in the twenty-second mile, and
was plainly out of it so far as first
place was concerned.
On the first lap of the twenty-fifth
mile Dorando passed Shrubb. reaching
second place. A few moments later
Shrubb gave up and staggered toward
his dressing room. It was about dark
when St. Yves, with a sensational
sprint, crossed the line, winner of the
race, and the photographers . turned
loose flashlights to get his picture.
Dorando, Hayes and Maloney kept on
to the finish.
St. Yves was an unknown quantlty
for he came to this country -with a
record of five victories and no defeats.
He is said to have made a trial over
the Olympic course in England in the
record , time of 2:31:23. He also de

.mostly of freshmen, managed to score
ij Jj; points at tne big indoor
field and track meet held at the Mult
nomah County Armory under the aus
pices of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic
Cub last night. The Seattle Athletic
Club after a reconsideration of the finish
o. the aO-yarri dash, which was very
close, managed to nose out the Oregon
Agricultural College for second place..
Barney Gish, the Seattle runner, and
tiuade, of Fort Stevens, finished almost
abreast, and some of the finish judges
ruled in favor of the Seattle man and
some in favor of the soldier, and after an
extended conference, the second place was
given to Gish after it had been an
nounced by "Spieler" John Cronln that
Quade had taken the place.
The meet was so full of good things
and splendid finishes that the one marr
ing festure, the disabling of Forrest
Smithson. created but little comment.
This incident to the world's champion
can be attributed to the fact that .the
hurdles used were almost identical in
color wlfh the floor of the Armory, and
under the electric lights, made it diffi
cult to distinguish them. This was made
plain oy the fact that all of the other
runners cleared the barriers high, instead
of skimming over them as is Smithson' s
custom. Smithson's disability, however
Is not serious enough to warrant any
fears about his being in excellent trim
ror athletic stunts this Summer.
Events Pulled Off Quickly.
The large list of events was pulled off
in a most expeditious manner and the
method ot Frank J. Lonergan. official
clerk of the course, was responsible for
this lack of delay. "LoDny seems to
possess the faculty ot lining up the en
tries and starting them off in a manner
that has never been equalled in Portland
il .th, visitinK athletes, as well as the
officials at the meet, commended Loner
gan for his energy and activity in get
ting the many different beats started
promptly.
The first race on the programme was
the mile run. This was won bv H Res
dora, of the Seattle Athletic Club who
was easily the star performer. H m
Cross, of the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege .took second place, while third went
to H. W Gammie. of the Multnomah
Amateur Athletic Club. A Seattle man,
Jackson, also won the Marathon race
over a course ten miles long, and which
was run. for the most part., out uoors
The entries in this event numbered ten
starters and, after proceeding four laps
on the indoor track, the runners took to
the streets and ran to Riverview Ceme

Urills Bring Out Applause.
The "balf-mile relay races, both acade
mic and open, proved hotlv contested
events. In the junior event the Lincoln
High School team succeeded in maintain
ing the class and won easily from Hill
Military Academy, although the prelimi
nary heats were keenly contested. The
senior event went to the University of
Oregon, for the collegian runners were
much better trained than were their only
competitors, the soldiers from Fort
Stevens. However, the boys of Uncle
.Sam's Coast Artillery did themselves
proud and tried hard.
During an intermission professor
Robert Krohn brought on his famous
drill of the boys' and girls' classes of
the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club.
The first figure presented to the spec
tators was a calisthenlc drill, partici
pated in by 140 junior boys and girls,
and when their evolutions were over
the audience applauded liberally. It
remained for the junior leader's class
of 3 girls, dressed in white, to brio
forth storms of applause by the pi
t 1 ii ipiiin or 1 up ir jnuias
club drill. These two numbers con
tributed by Professor Krohn's classes
were easily a feature.
Financially, the meet was most sucr
cessful. and Chairman Frank E. Wat
Kins, of the outdoor athletic commit
tee, and his assistants deserve great
praise for the able manner in which
the- meet was handled. They also -wish
to extend their thanks to all of -the
officials who assisted at the meet, and
to the-officials of the Multnomah Club
for the liberal manner in which they
were seconded in all their plans.

WELL WORTH KNOWING
ANY LUMP IN WOMAN'S BREAST
IS ALWAYS CANCER.
The papers made mention some time
ago of several marvelous cures of larsjrc
cancers in women's breasts by I jr.
Cham ley. the world renowned cancer
specialist, of 696 McAllister St.. San
Francisco. Cal. This doctor makes the
bold assertion that lie has in over 35
years cured more cancers than any
other doctor livinsr and offers $1000 if
he fails to cure any sinfrle cancer he
treats, ftrictly reliable: no X-Kay or
other swindle. The fact that not a dol
lar need be paid until cured should con
vince tho most skeptical of the doctor's
honesty and fair dealing. He has,
probably, the best book ever printed on
cancers and tumors cured without knife
or pain, wherein he teaches and proves
that any lump in woman's breast is
cancer. This book of testimonials of
thousands of wonderful cures every
where is sent free to all who write rr
and Mrs. Dr. Chamley & Co.. describing
their cancer. The reader mav save a
life by sending this to xome one with
cancer.
