t
NOMINATE OR fiOT.
THAT IS QUESTION
Bull Moose Convention May
Split Over Naming State
Ticket.
RODGERS LIKELY WILL RUN
Some Members or Third Party Want
to Place Man in Race to Op
pose Aitchison Senti
ment" Is Divided.
SALEM. Or.. Sept 14. (Special.)
When the Progressive party, or Bull
lloose convention, Is held in Salem next
Tuesday It will develop into a fight on
whether a state ticket will be placed
In the field, and from present appear
ances chances for such a ticket seem
to De decidedly slim. From its geo
graphical location Marion County prom
ises to have a preponderance of dele
gates, and undoubtedly there will be a
strong Tight by the delegation from
this county against a third ticket.
It is understood that George F. Rodg.
ers, who is talked of as a prospective
candidate for Representative in Con
gress from this district tor that party,
will bitterly oppose placing a state
ticket in the field and will carry his
fight to the floor of the convention If
necessary.
Other local Bull Moose advocates, who
will be present at next Tuesday's meet
ing, also will fight against that plan.
Some local Progressive party members
favor a state ticket, but as near as
can be ascertained they are badly in
the minority.
AltrhUon Hay Be Offered.
Many of them are opposed to the re
election of Clyde B. Aitchison as Rail
road Commissioner from the Second
District, but it is very doubtful if any
attempt will be made here to nominate
a man to oppose him. That Is an East
ern Oregon and Multnomah County dis
trict and should the convention here
endeavor to name a man to represent
that section it is believed by the lead
ers here it would develop antagonism
from that quarter and would be use
less. The principal reason that ani
mosity seems to be directed at Altchi
son seems to lie In the fact that he was
the only candidate who responded to
the Multnomah County Central Com
mittee with the statement that be is
a Republican and will stand with that
part?.
This seems to have aroused some po
litical enmity on the part of the more
radical of the third party men, but
others are opposed even to attempting
to nominate a man to run against
Aitchison.
George Rodgers still remains silont
as to what lie will do in the Congres
sional race. His close friends say that
be will run and that he Is awaiting an
action of the Congressional convention
next Tuesday, believing that he vill
be nominated there.
What strength he would have in the
race against Representative Hawley,
the Incumbent Is problematical, but
the general sentiment here, even In his
home city, seems to be that he would
meet with an overwhelming defeat at
the hands of Mr. Hawley. as Mr. H.-iw-Jey
has shown great strength In the
past two elections.
Hawler'l Position StrenBthenlng.
Friends of Mr. Hawley also point
out that he has been in Congress a suf
ficient length of time to be securing
excellent committee positions and that
with each succeeding term he Is being
entrenched stronger as a big factor In
the Lower House for this district
Mr. Rodgers has been in some por
tions of the district organizing Bull
Moose committees, but none of these
meetings have been reported as being
overly successful and It Is considered
barely possible that he may renounce
any attempt to nominate him here next
Tuesday.
As far as Marlon County Progressives
are concerned,, a factional difference
has stirred up some small strife as to
whether a county ticket should be
placed In the field, and this divided
interest of the Marlon County delega
tion may have some bearing on Its
strength In the state convention.
CAREY JURY HARD TO GET
Ex-Marshal Charged With Murder
of Successor at Westfall.
VALE. Or.. Sept. 14. (Special.)
"Difficulty is being experienced In find
ing a jury to try Asa Carey, charged
with the murder of Jasper Westfall In
the town of Westfall. May 10. After
exhansting the Jury list already a new
panel was called and as yet the 12
have not been chosen. The trial was
set for September 11.
Much Interest is being centered about
this trial. About four years ago Carey
while he was town marshal, shot and
killeo r ran k amervii, uui w ;
quitted on a plea. of self-defense. On
May 10 he became engaged In a fight
which Marshal Westfall tried to stop.
Carey would not be quieted and Eaid
that no one could arrest him. Later
when Westfall tried to take him into
custody Bhooting resulted and West
fall was killed.
Judge George E. Davis is conducting
the defense.
GRADING IS NEARLY DONE
Eugene-Monroe Line May Be-Ready
for Steel Within Two Weeks.
EUGENE. Or.. Sept 14. (Special.)
, Grading for the Eugene-Monroe sec
tion of the Portland. Eugene A East
ern's Eugene-Portland line probably
will be finished within two weeks. Out
of the 24 miles of roadway, eight have
been completely graded and with the
placing of concrete culverts and a few
small bridges, will be ready for the
steel. With grading camps covering
the remaining work completely there
promises to be no difficulty in finish-J
ing up me wor a rcijuireo.
On the whole contract there is but a
short stretch that required blasting.
This Is near Monroe, and the powder
is now being placed, preparatory to a
huge blast the first of the week that
is expected to displace 50,000 yards of
rock. This material Is needed for a
fill near the cut
Willing to Work.
Judge.
Two wayside pilgrims were talking
over things, when one of them asked:
"Dick, you ain't a-hankerln' after no
Government place, are ye?"
"I don't mind sayin' I'd take one of
'em ef I could git it," responded the
other, "but I don't want no Job that's
all fat I'm wlllin' to earn my wages."
"An" what sort o" job would be about
your sise?"
"Well. I'd like to fill fountain pens
fur some assistant Secretary of the
Treasury."

EDNA UISLOP IS HOME
FAMILY OF J. INGRAM SHELTER
DAUGHTER'S FKIEXD.
Detective Hawley Restores Child to
Parents Who Promise Xot to
Treat Her TTnkindly.
True to deductions made by De
tective Hawley. Edna Hlslop. 13 years
old. missing- ince Tuesday from her
home at SOB Rodney avenue, was se
creted in the. house of a neighbor. She
was restored to her parents yesterday.
The. family of J. Ingram. 394 Monroe
street, had harbored her.
Learning that a boy was seen slip
ping a note under the door of the HIs
lop home, telling the parents that the
girl was in good hands. Detective Haw
ley pursued his inquiries among the
boys of the neighborhood until he
found who the messenger was. It
proved to be one of the Ingram fam
ily. TVhen he arrived at the house, the
detective found the Ingrams on the
point of communicating the facts to
someone. They had sheltered the girl
after their daughter, a schoolmate, had
invited ber to leave borne and llva wiLtt
them. They were given to 'believe that
the child was mistreated at home.
At the Hislop home there was great
joy when Hawley led the lost child to
the door. He counselled that it would
not be wise to discipline her for the
escapade, and the parents readily
agreed with, this view.
The girl left home, Tuesday, after an
attempt by her mother to punish her.
Immediate appeals were made to the
police, but all efforts to find the child
were fruitless until yesterday.

RECORDS CLEAR JUSTICE
FILES SHOW BAILIFF MISTAKEN
IX MCDOWELL CASE.
Mr. Olson 'Charges That Informant
Is Bitter Because - of Ruling
Against Him in Court.
Records of the Justice Court show
conclusively that Injustice has been
done Justice Fred Olson in the state
ment of Richard Detch, bailiff of the
grand Jury, that Cnarles McDowell, a
laborer, held to answer for passing bad
checks, was in prison from May 15
until September 9 without a transcript
having been sent up in his case. That
such a delay did occur from August 7
until September $ is shown by the
record and is admitted by the Justice
Court officers, as an oversight on their
part.
The statement of Deich is that the
transcript was dated May 15, but did
not reach him until September . The
Justice Court records show that the
complaint and warrant were issued
May 15, and that the warrant lay in the
hands of the Constable for over two
months before McDowell was found.
Late in July he was arrested and asked
for a delay in order that he might
make good bis shortage. Following
the custom, this was allowed and the
case was continued to August 5 and
then to August 7. On that day, having
failed to cover the shortage, he waived
examination and was held to the
grand jury. The notations were made
on the complaint in the usual way, but
were overlooked for one month, finally
being forwarded September 9.
u- i fAAijnn. An th nart nf rfJch. be
cause of being ruled against in a case
in which he appeared as uuniej
before Mr. Olson, is given by the Jus-
(.., - - nrtlhahlA I'D I1BO nf ttlA IT fl R I -

state the tacts in inis case, ueicii, wi
Justice Olson, narrowly escaped being
fined for contempt, on account of slurr
ing remarks made on leaving the court
room at the conclusion of the case.

AUTOMOBILE RIDER HELD
Man Charged With Using Car With
out Owner's Consent.
ASTORIA, Or., SeDt 14. (Special.)
In the Justice Court today David
Bulshaw was held under $25 ball to
await the action of the Circuit Court
grand Jury on a charge of using an
automobile without the consent of the
owner.
The defendant and three others were
arrested for taking an automobile,
which was standing on Commercial
street, and going on a Joyrlde, during
which they had a collision and dam
aged the machine. The three othe s
settled the case against them by pay
ing 75 each to repair the damage ana
$5 court costs. A warrant has been
issued for another young man, who was
a member of the party, but he has
not yet been apprehended.
Aged Albany Man Dies.
ALBANY, Or., Sept 14. (Special.)
Jack Harrison, for the last two years
Janitor of the Cuslck Bank building in
this city, died last evening at St. Mary's
Hospital, at the age of 70 years. He
was born in England and came to this
country about 25 years ago.
