Collapse of Progressive Party in

and Ole Hanson Is Regarded as
Only Strong' Contender.
OLTMPIA. Wash, Oct SI. (Special.)
Wider, interest has een aroused by
the Washington political campaign this
year than by the three-party Presiden
tial fight of 1912, this being due to the
introduction of the prohibition issue
Into the present contest. Every city
in the state reports a registration in
excess of that of 1912 and if weather
conditions are at all favorable Tues
day the total vote promises to be con
elderably greater than that caet by
this state in the Presidential year.
' The increased registration is largely
accounted for by the large number of
women non-voters in 191Z, who nave
been registered early this year in or
der that they might sign the initiative
petitions for the prohibition bill.
The collapse of the Progressive party
In this state promises to be one of the
outstanding features of the election.
In 1912 Roosevelt carried the state.
taking two Progressive Representa
tives at large into office with him
and receiving a larger proportion of
the popular vote than in any other
state. Only the vulnerability of the
Bull Moose candidate for Governor pre
vented the third party from making
clean sweep. This year, however, the
Progressives promise to become third
Party in numbers in the state. The
majority of voters who have left Pro
gressive ranks have renewed their ite
publican allegiance.
One Progressive Strong.
Ole Hanson, Senatorial nominee of
the Bull Moose, is the one man .upon
whom Progressive leaders are center
ing their hopes. Hanson has made one
of the most thorough personal cam
palerns ever seen in this state, and his
candidacy has been aided by the ab
sence from the state of Senator Jones,
who was first detained at Washington
by the session of Congress and then at
the bedside of his aged mother, who
Is seriously ill. Prospects are that
Hanson will poll more votes in every
district than the Progressive nomi
nees for Representatives in Congress
. with this added strength he probably
will have a larger vote than w. vv,

tender against Senator Jones.
Indications, however, are that the
Progressive Representative candidates
will be third in at least three and
probably four of the five Congres

district is the Bull Moose candidate
considered by the betting fraternity as
better than a long odds second choice.

Brown, veteran District Attorney or
Oregon and candidate for Attorney
General on the RepuDlican ticket at
the November election, paid a beauti
ful tribute to the life of Robert A.
Booth, candidate for United States Sen
ator from Oregon. Mr. Brown Degan
his remarks by referring back to the
time when he first became acquainted
with Mr. Booth. Both were mere boys
then and living with their parents on
opposite sides of the Umpqua River, a
few miles from Roseburg.
Mr.. Brown recalled Mr. Booth as a
worker on the farm, where he assisted
his father, who had a large family
of children to maintain. Like many
of the poorer children of those days,
said Mr. Brown, Mr. Booth encountered
the difficulties, discouragements and
limited spheres which beset a youth
of energy and ambition in climbing the
ladder to success. Mr. Brown followed
Mr. Booth in his struggles for an edu
cation In the rural schools, after
which he entered the Umpqua Acad
emy, probably one of the most dis
tinguished, yet humble, institutions of
learning in Douglas County's history.
During his attendance at this acad
emy, near Wilbur, Mr. Booth con
tracted to cut wood at times of the
day or week when school was not in
session. In this manner he was en
abled to defray the cost of tuition. Mr.
Brown said ho next knew Mr. Booth
as a teacher in the schools of Douglas
County, and then traced his progress
upward
He alluded feelingly to his boyhood
acquaintance with the elder Mrs. Booth,
mother of Robert A. Booth, whom he
characterized as one of the most de
voted and self -sacrificing women he had
ever known. She loved her children.
said Mr. Brown, and they loved her.
'In all my 18 years of experience as
a prosecuting officer I have rarely found
bad men devoted to their mothers, said
;r. Brown. "When a man respects his

(Special.) Representative Hawley, at
a well-attended and enthusiastic street
meeting today, tore to shreds the
charges that he has done nothing at
Washington. By quoting records he
convinced his bearers that those who
had sent out malicious circulars naa
done so for the purpose of deceiving
the voters.
-If my opponent would tell only the
truth, I would not say a word in de
fense," said Mr. Hawley. "But when
the truth is not told it is my duty to
correct the misstatements, and I want
to say that any one who will deceive
you to get your votes will deceive you
afterwards."
Robert A. Booth, Dr. Withycombe,
Judge Lawrence T. Harris and George
M. Brown were eulogized by the
speaker,
