Most of the space in the structure will be required for the various depart ments -of the paper. The fourth and fifth floors will be used exclusively oy the editorial and composing depart ments. The building occupies an irregular block of land In the new nearly level business district, made by the razing of Denny Hill. The block is surround ed by Fourth and Fifth avenues, Stew art and Olive streets and its situation is comparable with that of the Herald building in New York. The business office of the paper overlooks Fifth avenue. The late Colonel Alden J. Blethen purchased the site of the building five years ago.

POIUDEXTER'S CHANGE RATED LOW Portland Party Leaves for Dome After Banquet at Which Flood of Oratory Is Released, but Addison Bennett Fishes. BY ADDISON BENNETT. BEND. Or., June 17. (Special.) The IIoo-Hoos have had a busy day and have kept the Bend people stepping as entertainers. Considering the late hour kept by all parties at the Emblem Club rooms last night, where a dance was Jrlven for the delectation of the visitors, we were up betimes this morning and put in the time after breakfast in vis iting about the city. It ought to be said that the Emblem Club occupies the celebrated old Drake r-abln on the banks of the Deschutes Xtiver with a fine dancing pavilion ad joining. This club is the Arlington Club of Central Oregon and when they do anything in the way of entertain ment they do it right, as we can testify after the affair of last night, which was certainly an event not soon to be forgotten. Logirera Seen at Work At 10 o'clock today we were taken in automobiles out to the logging camps and from thence into the woods where the Brooks Canyon Lumber Company loggers are at work. After an inspec tion of the operations there we were Drought back through town and across the river and about nine miles to the south, to the logging camp of tne Ehevlin-Hixon Company, where about 150 men are at present employed. This is the most beautiful logging camp any of us had ever seen. It is situated directly on the Deschutes Kiver, the point being just above Lava Falls and not far from Lava Butte. There are more than 50 buildings, and everything is as neat and trim as in an orderly little town. The main line of the logging road leads through the place and the logging operations are now being conducted about a mile to the west, where a big area has already been cut over. KreHhly Caught Trout Served. Here we were met by Frank Jen Tiine'S, the commissary of the Shevlin Hixon Company, and at 2 o'clock we were escorted to the messhouse. where the party of 35 sat down to dinner. Of this dinner too much praise cannot be Riven. Many of us had often paid a dollar for a meal not nearly as good. The crowning dish was about 175 trout which the men caught this morning the river within a stone's throw of the camp. Better cooked trout were never served. The onlv trouble was we had difficulty in choking some of the Hoo Hooa off before thev had killed thenv Belves. 'When it comes to an appetite the Hoo-Hoo can give a timber wolf cards and spades. But it was not sim ply a trout dinners We had all sorts of vegetables, fine foup. excellent Bal- ads and. to cap it all, about as fine strawberry shortcake as mortal ever ate. Votes of Thanks Are Given. It took us an hour to get away with the "feed" and then we resorted speech-making and the slogans or cat calls of the Hoo-Hoos, led by Chief Jjockwood and nobly seconded by Fred Stanley, brother Zan and the other members of the party. Then by rising vote we returned thanks to Commissary Jennings, who, in turn thanked us for the privilege of meet ing us and supplying our wants. Final ly we returned a vote of thanks to the -camp's chef, John S. Davis, and his ablo and loyal assistant. Mns. Davis. rather think we embraced in this vote a tribute to Miss Davis, the petite and charming daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Davis, who is the idol of the camp. RHe Through Flnea Enjoyed. Then came another enjoyable rid nacK to town through the lovely pine forest, with its carpet of living green and its decoration of the beautiful manzanita biushen, Nature's own unpar alleled handiwork of the blessed out ooors where the air is fragrant with the aroma of the pine and where th murmuring winds passing through the branches make a music above any produced by human throat or man's Ingenuity. ouc ueiore e reacnea aena a thun der shower came up and the heat h left us, while in its stead we have Kpienaia Spring night. Tonight the jrreat event or the trip will take place in me uaiiroom or tne n;moiem Club, uuiHiuet win ne served and no aourit there will be a flood of oratory. At tne close of these festivities the party win taKe the Oregon Trunk Tfall road, and from that to the North Bank at f aiiDriage and thence to Portland, -wnicn place they will reach earlv to morrow morning. But not this Hoo Hoo, for I a-fishing go. E. A.

(Spe cial.) While the nomination of Charles E. Hughes as Republican Presidential candidate is generally accepted as sat isfactory by Washington Republicans, and symptoms of a breakup in Pro gressive ranks are shown in spots, the effect of the convention's choice on state politics is already beginning to appear. As capital city political observers now view the situation the nomination of Mr. Hughes would be altogether in favor of W. E. Humphrey's candidacy for United States Senator, --but for E. A. Bryan's entry into the contest. If Mr. Hughes gethers the voting strength of the state during the. cam paign, as Republicans confidently be lieve he will, the elimiuation of Poin dexter as a Senatorial candidate at' the September primaries is regarded as certainty. Although it was an nounced that he will file for the Sen ate again as a. Republican, Mr. Poin dexter's chief dependence has been placed on the Progressive element. Political Fault Is Denied. Argument in support of Mr. Poin- dexter will be that he has simply fol lower Col-nti Roosevelt into and out of the Progressive party with which course, it will be maintained, no politi cal fault can be found. Aafitii. E. Griffiths, Progressive Na tional committeeman from Washing ton, is trying to hold what is left of the line intact until the delegation re turns from Chicago ard takes stock of general conditions. Little has been heard from the Humphrey camp for some time, al though his claim on the regular Re publican support has been certain from the start until Mr. Bryan declared him self in making the primary fight a. three-coiiered affair. Mr. Bryan's strength, gathered in nearly 25 years as president of Wash ington State College, is neither denied nor discounted by Humphrey support ers. The latter base their expectations of success in the primaries on the west side vote, which embraces he bulk of the state's population, and Mr. Hum phreys' long service in the National House of Representatives. l,ee Emphatic Hughes Man. In the Governorship contest on the Republican side, Henry McBride prob- bly would have profited most by the nomination of Roosevelt, as the pri mary candidate who displayed the most pronounced Progressive symptoms in 1912. Of the other Gubernatorial as pirants, George A. Lee has been most readily emphatic, possibly, in public indorsement of Mr. Hughes as head of the ticket. C. P. Lund, director of the campaign of W. J. Sutton in the Gov ernorship fight, as chairman of the state delegation to Chicago, partici pated to some extent in the Roosevelt demonstration in the Republican con vention, although Mr. Lund has always been Recognized as a regular. James McNeely, Pierce County candi date for Governor, has been a Roose velt man to some extent, but of the other Republican candidates, J. E. Frost has been uncompromisingly op posed to all who took part in the re volt of 1912, and John A. Lewis, of Aberdeen, remained regular through, it all. The same can be said of Roland II. Hartley, of Everett. Whether Robert Hodge, Progressive candidate for Governor four years ago. will finally file this year is still much of a problem as is the question of what ticket he will file on. He has indicated that his choice' would be Re publican, but his appeal will be to the radical element, and the Republicans are not showing signs of this being & radical year for them.

A dozen or more sub-committees are working on various angles of the cele bration plans. The programme, as it is being worked out, will be spread out to cover the entire day from 6 A.

White, who was named as mediator by Secretary nf Labor Wilson in an at t d tii if t ii rliitfinlVA i v cnii furnni-c. thA ' differences between the International Longshoremen's Association and the Waterfront Employers' Union, said to night that he would leave San Fran cisco tomorrow for Seattle, Wash where, he said he had been informed by telegraph, conditions were becoming acute and where many longshoremen were not living up to the terms of the temporary agreement entered into be tween the longshoremen and owners by which the men returned to work pend ing a settlement of their strike. Mr. White was unable to tell what features of the working conditions in Seattle had proved distasteful to the men, merely saying: "I believe Seattle would be the prop er place for me at this time' Mr. White's decision to leave San Francisco came tonight when, after numerous conferences and meetings with representatives of the owners union and the Federal mediator, the executive board of the Pacific Coast district of the International Longshore men's Association adjourned, setting June 26 as the date of their next meet ing. Before adjournment was taken the board adopted the following resolu tion: "Whereas, The members of the Pa cific Coast district of the International Longshoremen's Association are on strike for better conditions and wages: and Whereas, Many of our fellow-unionists have, without solicitation on our part, refused to "do any work that would in any way assist the employers, and as we recognize that we are under obligations to all such men and to all iemployes; therefore be it "Resolved, By this board, that we will sanction no settlement that does not include and protect our fellow unionists who act as union men during the strike."
