Friday. , RESOURCES TO BE TOPIC Oregon City Charter, Co-operatiou Throughout Xation and City Fi nances and Administration Ef ficiency to Be Considered. UNIVERSITY OP OREGON, Eugene. May "2. (Special.) Among questions considered at tho seventh common wealth conference to be held in the halls of the University next week-end nre four exclusive Oregon problems. The first great question will be the consideration of tho Oregon City char ter problem. The next question is the getting of a distinction or individuality in a charter of its own for each Oregon municipality. The problem of city finances, efficiency in administration, Sonera Uy, and bonding in particular, is the third state problem. "City Plan ning" is tho last. The latter question will have con sidered as a part of itself the situation of excess condemnation, which will be discussed along the line that the en hanced values, due to improvements that the city as a whole pays for, may be secured by the city as ix whole, and not by real estate speculators. Only One Scwslon to Be Held at Time. As the conference is planned only one session is to be conducted at a time, says V. G. Young, chairman. A commonwealth review, in which the records of past conferences will be discussed again, ia a variance from for mer customs. "On the morning of Friday," stated l'rofessor Young, "May 28, the begin ning of the conference proper, the problem of co-operation between the state and Nation and among the states for immediate, largest and best devel opment of Oregon's resources will be considered.

"In connection with each discussion it is expected that a committee of rep resentative men from different parts of the state will bo appointed, to whom - -ritt be hiiiutttri i tt duly of investi gating each problem further and en listing all of the aid possible bo that in succeeding conferences a report will be ready which will advance the re spective Questions far toward solution. "The nature of the problems is such that they will be of vital interest to members of Commercial Clubs and all city and county officials; addresses by the members of the National Federation will be of interest to all women's clubs, so that those several classes of organi zation will be urged strongly to attend through a large body of delegates."

BKTTER BABIKS COBiTF.S'J CLOSES AT NORTH HEM). ''"- s . n ; ii : i - r'. i j J V : N f Mrs. Carl Jacoluon, One of Fore most Promoters. MARSH FIELD, Or., May 22. (Special.) Mrs. Carl Jacobson. of North Bend, one of Coos Bay's younger matrons, was among the foremost promoters of the Bet ter Babies contest which has just closed In North Bend. The 125 entries ranged from 18 months to 5 and 6 years of age. Mrs. Jacobson's short residence on Coos Bay marked a forward movement in all things in which she took an active interest. Her hobby, if it may be called such. Was the eugenics agitation and her judgment was relied upon as highly competent. That theBet ter Babies contest was a remark able and admitted success, is due largely to Mrs. Jacobson's activity. ing. party affairs are occupying all of the attention ' of Idaho leaders just now. Republicans and Democrats, Progressives and Socialists, are not now so skeptical as many of them were when Senator Borah was first mentioned as a possible candidate for the Presidency. The unusually favor able mention given him in the East leads them to believe that his nomi nation, while improbable, is not at all impossible. Irrespective of party they are for him in the event of his nomi nation. Just what Senator Borah and Colonel Roosevelt discussed prior to the time the Senator left for his Idaho home, is worrying some of the more curious. That they went over the political situ ation that confronts this country pretty thoroughly is well known. Party Conference Approved. Party leaders here believe the sug gestion to be a good one that a joint conference between the Republican and Progressive party leaders be held with a view of centering their strength. There are 15,000 or iO.OOO Progressives in Idaho. The persistent rumors afloat in po litical circles that Captain E. G. Davis, assistant Attorney-Genaral and ex-secretary of the Republican party In this state is going to enter the Republican primary race for the Gubernatorial nomination has caused not a little comment. Captain Davis refuses to make a statement. Regarding Senator Borah's prospects as a Presidential candidate his friends here are greatly pleased over the tribute paid to him by the Philadelphia Public Ledger discussing the political situation from a National standpoint. Senator's Chances Rated High. "It is said here by an unusually well-informed politician that Senator Borah's recent cryptic statement, in which he announced his receptive candidacy without actually proclaim ing himself a candidate, was issued out of courtesy to Justice Hughes," says the Ledger.. "It would not be surprising if, now that Justice Hughes has declined to follow in the footsteps of Chief Justice Chase, Senator Borah, would permit of a broader interpola tion being put on his statement. "Indeed, Senator Borah's friends In New England are expected to become more aggressive In pushing his claims as the most available Republican of Progressive type, and it is believed that the elimination of Justice Hughes will react favorably to the Idaho- Sen ator. Other States Expected. "Hughes sentiment in Vermont and perhaps in Maine, may very possibly crystallize shortly on Borah. In Mas sachusetts Senator Weeks can have the Bay State delegates instructed for him if he becomes a candidate. As a native son of New Hampshire he will very likely have the support of that state, and could probably get the back ing of most of the New England dele gates if he sought them. In that event. Senator Borah as things look now, would stand an excellent chance of being the second choice candidate of this section." WEEKLY LUNCHEONS END Hoquiam Commercial Club to Close Entertainments for Summer. HOQUIAM, Wash., May 22. (Spe cial.) After one of the most success ful Spring seasons in 'Its history, the Hoquiam Commercial Club will close its weekly Wednesday .luncheons for the Summer vacation the middle of next month.
