TXTE STJNTJAT OKEGONTA2T, PORTXAITIT, JUNE 1916. A OREGON TO LEAD IN HUGHES.MOVEMENT Chicago Delegates Call All Supporters Together for Early Organization. MR. FULTON MAY NAME Other States Look to Oregon to Go Ahead, as Heavy Slajority for Justice Entitles It to Make First Move; Stir Created. CHICAGO. 111.. Juno 3. (Special.) The Oregon delegation Intends tomor row to step to the front, and lead the Hughes procession. To that end. notice was given tonight that the Oregon dele gation will call a meeting on Monday of all delegates favoring Hughes, the meeting being designed to weld to gether the Hughes forces, and to map out the best programme for placing Hughes formally before the convention. Up to today it had been assumed that Governor Whitman, of New York, would make the. nominating speech. It may develop, as a result of Monday's con ference, that this honor will be be stowed upon one of the Oregon dele gates. In which event Senator Ftilton undoubtedly would bo chosen. Mr. Hitchcock; Criticized. There has been much criticism of Frank H. Hitchcock, generally regarded as the Hughes manager, and attacks on him have brought from Justice Hughes' secretary the statement that Mr. Hughes has no representative at Chicago. That is correct. However, the Oregon delegation is here, under instructions given at the" primary; "to support Hughes and to do all possible to bring about his nomination. The Oregon delegation, therefore, feels that it can properly assume to take the lead in the Hughes movement and If it does, there can be no pos sible protest from any quarter, ber cause the delegation bears credentials from the people. Call Given for Hughes Rally. This .afternoon, after considerable consultation among Hughes delegates, the following statement was issued by those of the Oregon delegation now in Chicago, National Committeeman Ralph Williams having given the proposal his thorough approval: The Oregon delegation calls a meet ing of all accredited delegates to the National Convention who are favorable to the nomination of Hughes, to meet at the Sherman House Monday after noon at 3 o'clock for the purpose of consulting with a view to furthering his candidacy. "Being the first state delegation in structed for Hughes, we feel that we may with propriety take the initiative in bringing the Hughes supporters to gether. Masses Are for Hashes. "Recognizing the fact that Mr. Hughes is not and cannot be an active candidate and that there qan be no or ganization effected under his instruc tions, or with his consent, but realizing that the people throughout the country have indicated in no unmistakable terms that they are for him, it seems to us proper that those who favor his candidacy should unite to bring about his nomination.' "At this meeting it is expected that only persons who are members of the convention will participate. Not all the delegates will have reached Chicago by Monday afternoon, but we think it es sential that a start towards organiza tion be made." It V the understanding that the fore going announcement will have the In dorsement of the other Oregon dele gates when they arrive tomorrow. After the subject has been discussed by them, conferences will be held with the del egates from Vermont, who also have been instructed for Hughes, and with the Hughes delegates from New York. Oregon Expected to Lead. There is today in Chicago an or ganization supporting every candidate in the field save Hughes; the Justice has neither an organization nor a cam paign manager. Those who are here working in his behalf are working In dividually, each on his own responsi bility, and while Hughes' strength is evident in all directions, it has not been co-ordinated and, in fact, no efforts have been made to bring about concert of action. This the Oregon delegation plans to do. "There is every reason," said Sena tor Fulton today, "why the Oregon delegation should step forward and lead the Hughes movement. We are the only delegates here instructed for Hughes at a Presidential primary. By reason of the tremendous Hughes vic tory in Oregon, the convention will look to Oregon to take the lead, and we must be equal to the occasion." Nomination Right Wanted. Judge Charles H. Carey is enthusi astically in favor of having the Ore gon delegation come forward n th champions of Justice Hughes; in fact he thinks it is incumbent on them to take this step, in view of the circum stances under which the delegation was jusiruuiea. National Committeeman Ralph E. Williams not only commends the plan formulated today, but thinks Oregon should insist upon the right to nom inate iugnes in the convention. This privilege he says should be conceded to the state. In view of the fact that its delegation is solidly for Hughes, whereas the New York delegation is divided. But there is another reason wny air. Williams favors allowing Ore gon to place Hughes in nomination. It had been planned, on the rollcall, to have Alabama, the first state on the usi, wunneia in favor of New Ynrir in order that Governor Whitman might nominate Hughes. Looking into the situation today, it was discovered that i in the New York delegation will be supporters of Hughes, Root and Roose velt. Uncertainty Wonld Be Removed. While it is accepted as true that majority of the New York delegates are for Hughes, it would be possible, when New York is recognized, by cour tesy of Alabama, to have a Root dele gate or a Roosevelt delegate get first recognition, and thus make it appear that New York's first choice is some one other than Hughes. On the other hand, if Alabama yields to Oregon, it win oe Known in advance that Huerhes name only would be presented, and the uncertainty would be removed. It is learned today that no definite agreement has been made as to who snail place Hughes in nomination, even if he is to be nnminati1 Kv ... x- .. i. although it had been supposed until now mai governor whitman had been selected. The statement Issued on behalf of the Oregon delegation created a de- ciaea stir in Chicago tonight, and Ore- gonians nere nave been beset by news paper men and delegates to know what it means. To all inquiries the exDla nation is offered that Oregon is only doing what it deems best to unite the Hughes supporters and to press his candidacy before the convention in the most forceful way. There is no thought of rivalry over leadership of the Hughes movement. TWO PROMINENT i I ""V , '' ' ' w', s . .-X I IP t ' I ' rr- - : . . i .' - -. til ' -. ' : i- S .

(Continued From Flrat Page.) thing in a predetermined and prear ranged place to capture the nomina tion. To be sure, Hughes Is not responsible. but he will doubtless be held responsi ble by delegates who might be or might have been friendly and willing to turn to him after a fair try-out, on their own account, of other candidates. The Hughes nomination ought not to be forced, but Hitchcock is forcing It. No wonder everybody is. in a bad hu mor. Let us see if we can divine the situation as it is. It is Hughea against Roosevelt and the field. It may . be that Hughes will beat them all to the Republican nomination: but what then? It will have been a success achieved through the outright defeat of Roose velt and all the others, and it Is not In human reason to assume that there will be no sore spots. Is it conceiv able that anybody thinks Hughes can be elected without the support of Roosevelt, active or tacit? It ia not. But whether it is or not it ia not conceivable that he can win with the open opposition of Roosevelt. Xet Hitchcock and the little Hitch- cocks rashly jeopardize all prospects of success by taking the exact course which will alienate Roosevelt unless be discloses subsequently superhuman qualities of forgiveness and forgetful ness. and Roosevelt In some of his at tributes Is no superman. He will not relish being put to one side by Hughes through Hitchcock anv more than he consented to the personally conducted tour of the South in 1908 by Hitchcock in behalf of Cortelyou. X. R. No Longer Holds Club. It will "be recalled that Roosevelt then notified Hitchcock that he was mistaken. Even he thought he was gathering in those accommodating and procurable Southern gentlemen for Cortelyou. They were for Taft. So they were, as Hitchcock found. But Roosevelt now has no club oyer Hitch cock for somebody else is his master- some sinister and troublesome figure, who keeps himself far in the back ground. 1 repeat that the election of any Re publican in November without the rub ber stamp of the Roosevelt O. K. is highly improbable. As for some of the favorite sons now legging hard for a nomination, it is impossible with or without Roosevelt. It is folly then to proceed in any spirit that seeks to ignore Roosevelt now and appeal to him afterwards. Whipping Roosevelt into line la no boy's job. Talking it over with him is more agreeable and gives greater promise of a satisfactory result. But let us suppose that he is approached now and asked to give way to Hughes and he refuses, which is not unlikely. The resultant Hughes fiasco will then be chargeable to the insane strategy of the blundering Hitchcock. Some part of it, too, may be traced' back to Oregon, where the great idea of put ting Hughes' name, over his protest, on the ballot was hatched. There are many Roosevelt men on the convention special, but not in the Oregon or Wash ington Republican delegations. T. R. May Sanction Root. I was surprised to learn that there are 'five -Root men in the Washington party and three Hughes votes. The others are non-committal. This has no special meaning to my mind except that in Washington Republicans have a notion that Roosevelt will sanction Root and not Hughes. It may be ao. Indeed, as it looks to me now. there is some ground to think it will be so, but perhaps not. Who knows what will happen at Chicago? I do not. Two, weeks ago I thought the nomi nation of Hughes inevitable. But I shall have to say that now there are many awkward corners to turn bf fore REPRESENTATIVES OF NORTHWEST AT CHICAGO.
