' STATE COIfllTTEE MAY MEET SHORTLY FOREMOST OF ENGLISH SUFFRAGETTES, WHO WILL SPEAK TS PORTLAND TUESDAY NIGHT IN INTEREST OF WAR RELIEF FUND. !eveitioes From Every Angle Republicans Probably Will Be Called to Portland Soon After Convention. The O 10 me LOCAL BODY IN DISREPUTE Amidon-Daj'-Clark Forces May Not Be Kecognlzed and Mr. Wells Would Retain Seat; Several Ask About Meeting. ' The Republican State Central Com mittee probably will be called to meet In Portland lor organization soon after the return of the Oregon delegates from the Republican National Conven tion. In the absence of Charles B. Moores, chairman, and E. D. Baldwin, secretary, the responsibility of calling- the com mittee together apparently rests with Harvey Wells, treasurer and holdover state committeeman from Multnomah County. Mr. Wells has received several let ters from outside committeemen urging Mm to call the meeting during Rose Festival week. This he does not be lieve would be the best time for the meeting. "If the responsibility of the call rests ttn me." explained Mr. Wells yester day, "I do not consider it advisable that we meet until after the Republi can National Convention and the return of the Oregon delegates. We can get much valuable information about the situation from them." Resignation Is Not Accepted. Prior to opening his campaign for the Republican nomination for Secre tary of State in the recent primary, Charles B. Moores, chairman of the committee, tendered his resignation. This resignation has never been ac cepted and Mr. Moores is still chairman of the committee. He is at present absent from the state, however, on his son's ranch near Kennewick, Wash. Republicans In most of the 35 coun ties of the state have completed their county central committee organizations and selected their state comitteemen, or will' do so in the next few days. A number of the new committeemen have expressed deep disgust at the situation in Multnomah County where the John L. Day-Elmer I. Amidon-Albin L. Clark combination seized control of the county committee in a recent session. characterized by gag rule, unparlia mentary and disgraceful tactics gen erally. Local Comittee Ilns No Standing. The Multnomah committee as at pres ent organized, with Day, Amidon and Clark, who figured so prominently in the courts in connection with the Pre cinct 37 ballot counting scandal, in con trol, has no standing whatsoever. No body has any confidence in it, and it is repudiated generally by candidates and party leaders. Sentiment of upstate committeemen is against according it any recognition. Unless the situation changes ma terially and this unsavory faction is ousted from control, the state central committee at its meeting here will doubtless decline to seat any state committeeman who may be "selected" by Day, Amidon and Clark. Harvey Wells, present state committeeman from Multnomah County, in that event would hold his seat until the state committee itself named his successor. Among the new state central com mitteemen from outside counties are the following: Ray R. Correy, Baker County; Clyde Huntley, Clackamas County; E. B. Hermann, Douglas County ; George W. Denman, Benton County; S. S. Smith, Jackson County; W. .J. Church, Union County; Walter L. Tooze, Jr., Polk County; Willard L. Marks. Linn County; Marion Jack, Umatilla County, and Sam Laughlin. Tamhill County. BIG PROJECT OFFERED BOSEBIRC-COOS BAY RAILROAD IS " FIRST PROPOSAL. W. J. IVIIsey Says Syndicate "Will In. I Test About 12,000,000 In Develop, ment It Property Is Secured. MILITANT IS COMING HIGHWAY TO BE VISITED MARSHFIELD, Or.. June 3. Soe cial.) W. J. Wilsey. of Portland and New York, is here offering the people of Coos Bay the largest project yet brought here.

He says the bonds win De iurmsned by the syndicate he represents. Mr. Wilsey will visit Rose- burg on his way to San Francisco to arrange at that end for the railroad promotion. Unlike some promoters, Mr. Wilsey laid his cards on the table and said mis is wnat ne wants: All the pony inlet tidelands, com prising probably 1003 acres; the Kin ney property and parcels of it that were sold to Coke & Kollock; all the Mmpson holdings on the peninsula, in eluding the North Bend waterfront and mill; 1500 acres at Rocky Point, 1500 acres on South Slough. 600 acres on Coal Bank Inlet, 3000 acres of coal land tributary to Coos Bay. 20,000 to 40.000 acres of timber land contiguous to Coos Bay.

' ' ' . -v' ; j - 1 ' '- " . k tit i yr V- - v j-- jfc ; 4 v f t vW' J T JJ Photo copyright by A. Dupont . MRS. KMMALIVH PANKHUR5T. VIrs. Pankhurst Will Speak at Heilig for War Relief. English Government Is . Backing Woman Who Before War Led At tacks on Administration ; Cause Is Sidetracked for a While. Portland will have an opportuni see Mrs. Emmallne Pankhurst, fore most of English militant suffragettes, when she arrives in the city Tuesday morning from California, where she has been speaking. Mrs. Pankhurst will be met by Mrs. Walter J. Burns and other members of the local War Relief Fund Committee at 7:20 A. M. Tuesday and, following breakfast at Hotel Portland, will be taken over the Columbia River High way and luncheon served at Crown Point. Tuesday night Mrs. Pankhurst will speak at the Heilig Theater in tha interest of the war relief fund. The lecture is a benefit, all proceeds going to the fund. , The English government is backing Mra Pankhurst's tour, as since the war began she has been one of the leading helpers of the government, which dur ing the militant days of the suffrage cause held her in leash not - infre quently with force. The war caused sudden cessation of the militants' tactics on the broad ground that the country needed the women's aid more than the individual women needed suf frage just at that time. Mrs. Pankhurst. who, during the hunger strikes, marched on the House of Parliament, and Premier Asquith's home, not only brought herself into international notice, but also reared her daughters in the ways of the mili tants, has never before been in Port land. She has touched points in the United States heretofore, but her visits then were looked on with apprehension as possibly Inciting militancy in the United States. But Mra Pankhurst has subjugated all other issues to the one of war relief. , Mrs. Pankhurst s personality has been a surprise to her American audi ences. She is feminine in manner and dresses in the gentlest understanding of femininity. She is also tiny in stature as compared with the average woman, and possesses a remarkably well- trained and cultured voice, devoid of the raucous qualities commonly ex pected of fighting militants of the property smashing and Incendiary type. Mrs. PankhVrst has not given up the cause of suffrage; she has only set it aside until after the war. In San Fran cisco she explained that the war taught the women what they owed their country instead of what their country owed them. Included in tho committee who will welcome Mrs. Pankhurst will be wom en who are known to be anti-suffragists and anti-militants even in theory. But Mra Pankhurst's whole-hearted patriotism as exemplified by her un tiring efforts in behalf of the allies' war relief fund has won over many who formerly differed from her but who recognize in her an unequaled leader. Mrs.' Pankhurst's subject Tuesday night will be "Preparedness and Wom an's Work in the War." WARRINER TRIAL OPENS HEART E. BECK3IAN TELLS OK IN JURY TO WIFE IX COLLISION. Ere.ESE DELEGATE-ELECT OFF TO DEMOCRATIC NA - TIOAL COXVEKTIOSI. Drink Offered by Defendant Alleged, and Actlom After Accident on Highway Described. "I want you to get off. I'm going to give you a drink," is what C. A. Warrineiy automobile x driver, told Henry E. Beckman, motorcyclist, after stopping him near Latourell Falls bridge about 10 minutes before the accident which caused Mrs. Beckman to be permanently disfigured, according to the testimony of Beckman on the witness stand yesterday in the trial of Warriner for assault with a dangerous weapon. Warriner had a quart bottle of whisky, of which he had been drinking freely, Beckman testified. The witness declared that Warriner had hailed him and made the proffer of half a glass of whisky. He said he did not accept the liquor, as he was driving the motor cycle. , About 10 minutes after this incident, Beckman testified, the automobile of Warriner came from behind, and with out warning crashed Into the rear of the motorcycle. The first bump was not disastrous, but it was followed by another one which spilled the motor cyclists to the road, throwing Mrs. Beckman against a post. The automo bile ran over the chest of Mrs. Beck man, said, ber husband, and while he was trying to lift the wheel from her Warriner threw the machine into re verse and backed off. the body. Testimony except that bearing di rectly on occurrences at the scene of me accident were objected to strenu ously by Attorney John F. Logan, rep resenting Warriner. Circuit Judge Morrow allowed exceptions to the greater part of the evidence of Beck man. The accident occurred April 9 Sun day, while the Beckmans were on a pleasure spin. Beckman was the chief witness yesterday. The case will con sume several days. 4 ' i U f . - ... y- - ? , i n , i. v - SV - x ! - i ; p ' ? 1 :i .-.. . .2 . .

Events Covered in a Big Way Everyone cannot be in Chicago while the Repub licans are in session or in St. Louis when the Demo crats meet, but all can see the conventions in the word pictures painted by noted writers for The Oregonian. This paper will print: Complete Associated Press Reports Daily Articles By Irvin S. Cobb The conventions, day by day, as seen by The Ore gonian's "Washington, D. C, correspondent, who is now in Chicago, and other special and edi torial correspondence. Humor in Conventions? 2 Gatherings f .. ' "v, - i ' ' v T " - " iRVLN S. COBB. Yes, indeed, if you have the knack of seeing the humor in men's deeds. IRVIN S. COBB has that knack. He can discover the human and humorous side of anything that happens. COBB WILL. COVER THE REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTIONS FOR THIS PAPER. He is not going primarily to write funny stories. He is going to Chicago and St. Louis to write big, gripping stories the kind he wrote about the European war. But just as sure as Cobb writes about anything at all, there is sure to be humor in it. He just naturally can't help it. There are a lot of folks who do not care for the dry routine of politics. Women, for instance. But well lay a wager that any of these people will relish Cobb's daily stories in The Oregonian. Cobb will make conventions interesting to people who never cared about them before. That's because he is a truly great reporter, who can see things that others overlook, and who can tell a story in a wonderfully, engaging way. Cobb's stories begin with today's issue and will continue daily until the Democrats shut up shop at St. Louis. DON'T MISS COBB! That Vill Make History The National conven tions are the outstanding political events in Amer ican life. What they do is news that the world will read. No paper anywhere will give its readers more reliable, readable or com plete accounts than The Oregonian.
