DELAY SEEMS TO CHAFE
Republican Xamlnee Exudes Confl-
denco and Is Getting Heady
for a 'Whirlwind Campaign
' Throughout Country.
NEW YORK. Juno 24 (Special.)
The man whom Theodore. Roosevelt
will heartily indorse on Monday for
President; the man who is drawing to
himself Progressives from "irreconcila
ble" Western states and "old-guard"
leaders from the granite East, stood in
a little red-and-gold room at the Hotel
Astor and smiled affectionately at a
semi-circle of newspaper men today.
These newspaper men, 12 of them at
least, had been waiting two hours while
ex-Senator Elihu Root told the Repub
lican candidate for President what he
thought about the campaign.
When the 12 were admitted to the
little red-and-gold room with pencils
all sharpened to writs what Mr. Root
had said to Mr. Hughes, they were met
with the above-mentioned affectionate
smile and the words, "Well, boys, it's
the same old story nothing to say."
Conference "Very Pleasant."
Gomebody with an extra sharp pencil
stepped forward. "Will you tell us
whether Mr. Root offered you his
whole-hearted support?"
Mr. Hughes hesitated, then he made
a long speech as follows:
"Lest my silence .be misinterpreted.
I will say this: The conference was
very pleasant.'
This was the most definite remark
made by Mr. Hughes at any time during
the interview. He stood there for ten
minutes, while the reporters asked him
all sorts of improper things, and in the
end the reporters had acquired a num
ber of facts for their own information,
and nothing at all for print.
But those who had joined the semi
circles for the first time nust have
taken away with them something al
most as valuable as a "story." It was
the mental picture of a man now
wrestling- with one of the critical
phases of his campaign, enduring the
confusion and responsibility of a big
enterprise not yet organized, "seeing
people," all day straight through the
luncheon hour, directing shrewd strat
egy to attract the outraged Progres
sives, incidentally writing an accept
ance speech and never losing his smile.
Smile Is Big Asset.
This smile, by the way, is Mr.
Hughes' big facial asset though it
hasn't yet acquired comic paper fame
Like Mr. Roosevelt's smile, it is ample
and unrestrained and like it, too. It
displays a full set of healthy teeth. Is
it nroner to sneak of a candidate's
teeth in the early days of a campaign?
However this may be, the Hughes
teeth are going to be known to all the
world before November and so is the
Hughes mustache, whioh looks even
huskier than the photographs show it.
It la really a military mustache of the
old school, sweeping down beside his
mouth and merging with his closely
cropped beard.
Then there is the Hughes nose, with
Its pleasant touch of the Roman, and
his eyes, twinkling blue eyes, looking
Just a little strained and .tired, and his
interesting eyebrows, interesting be
cause at their inner ends they have that
bushy twist which denotes a fiery tem
per: in fact. Mr. Hughes' eyebrows,
even when he laughs retain a down
ward curve. Just as though they in
sisted on frowning.
' His face, though basically ruddy. Is
a little gray just now from sleepless
ness, perhaps, or midnight dictation.
Delay Seems to Bother Candidate.
The man's whole figure, as he stood
gracefully saying nothing to the news
paper men, expressed vitality, alert
- ness. lightning swift humor and above
all, eagerness to be "up and at "em."
There is no doubt Mr. Hughes chafes
at the )elay that attends settling mat
ters with the Progressives and being
notified in the. old formal way. Mr.
Hughes doesn't like It any better than
the reporters do that he must seal his
lips on National issues now when Fifth
avenue has burst out in flags and the
boys in khaki are marching by. but
when he does speak, look out. He told
me." said one of his close friends, "he
was gointg to leave no stone unturned."
"What does- that mean?"
"It means that he is going to clean
Tip this country as It has never been
done before. He is - going to visit
every state and give 'em speeches such
as will make his speeches for Taft
seem like thin, fadaway stuff. He will
bet. Confident? Yes. Hughes is con-
eyes. He will not overlook a single
bt. Sonftdent? Yes. Hughes Is con
fident. But he will cinch this thins
and rivet it down before he will be
satisfied."
What makes It all the harder for
Mr. Hughes Just now Is that he has
yo experienced staff, no press agent.
no National chairman (this will come
next week), almost, indeed, nobody to
lick envelopes. He is badly overworked.
: But in a little while he will emerge
from this chaos and when the West
fees him It will see no oold. grave
figure In a black robe, but a man at
once alert, composed, fiery and urbane.
He will look bigger as the Summer ad.

With Report That Progressives
Generally Are Pleased.
CHEHALIS, Wash.. June .24. (Spe
cial.) N. B. Coffman has returned

delegate to the Republican National
Convention. He i.s enthusiastic over
the work of the Republican conven
tion and the nomination of Charles H.
Hughes.
Mr. Coffman says that in the Kast
the sentiment is strong for Hughes, and
that In his judgment the Progressive
party as an organization will disin
tegrate: that tne rogresslves gen

So Far No Effort Has Been Made to
Amend Naval Appropriation
Bill by Senators; Mr. Hawley
Will TTrge Separate Action.
ORBGONTAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, June 24. (Special.) Through
the efforts of Senator Lane, the Senate
committee on naval affairs today
agreed to give a. hearing next Tues
day on the Lane bill authorizing the
establishment of a naval base on the
Columbia River and appropriating $3.-
0-00,000 to begin construction. Repre
sentative Hawley has been assured
that a hearing on his bill Identical
with the Lane bill will be given by the
House committee the latter part of
next week.
F. C Harley. chairman of the naval
base committee will appear before
both committtes and present argu
ments In support of the naval base bill
and will urge its Incorporation as an
amendment in the naval appropriation
hllL Senator Lane said he would In
vite all members of the Oregon Con
gressional delegation to- attend and
participate in the hearing on Tuesday,
and all those appearing before the
Senate committee will be Invited bv
Mr. Hawley to appear before the House
committee later in the week.
Naval Bill Not Touched.
Up to tie present time no effort haJ
been made by the Oregon Senators to
obtain an authorization in the naval
appropriation bill for a naval base of
any character on the Columbia River.
Neither Senator Chamberlain nor Sen
ator Lane appeared before the sub
committee in behalf of this . project
while the sub-committee was redraft
in tr and. enlarelns: the naval bill.
passed by the House. Nor, up to this
time, has either Senator -offered a Co
lumbia River base amendment to the
naval bill.
Senator Chamberlain said some days
ago he would -offer an amendment
ryrovldine- for. the establishment of
submarine base on the Columbia River,
but he has not yet 3one so. Senator
Lane today said he had. not decided)
whether he would offer his bill as en
amendment to the naval appropriation
bill, saying his conna would depend
upon what takes place at the hearing
on Tuesday.
Separate 3Ieasnre Proposed.
The expectation now is that the
naval appropriation bill will be re
ported to the Senate after the hearing
on the Columbia River base, and if no
provision for that base is made in the
regular bill Mr. Harley will urge that
the Lane-Hawley bill be pressed In
both bodies as a separate measure. '
Before reporting to the full commit
tee today, the Senate sub-committee
amended that provision of the House
bill authorizing an investigation and
report on the need and on sites for
naval bases on the two coasts, by re
quiring also an investigation of the
needs and sites for submarine bases as
well as full Navy-yards.

OUT-OF-TOWN FOLKS: tZ2SjVS2S&
A Clever Model
Tou see In this Library Table somethlns; that Is
really new and attractive in mission furniture de
slg;n. Don't imagine for a minute, because this
price is so low that the table is a cheap piece of
furniture. Indeed, it is one of the best and most
attractive in our entire store. The design is the
latest massive type, and it is built entirely of se
lected f laky-grained quarter-sawed oak. Finished
In beautiful wax olden or rich nut brown shade
of fumed oak.
Why We Cut the Price
Tou wonder if this can really be a $20.00 table. "We
say "Tea," and one of the best In our entire line, and
admit we are not making anything- on it directly, but
Indirectly it pays us big, because when you buy one
you become acquainted with Edwards' honorable way
of doing business and easy way of paying for what
you Hsuy. Then you get the benefit of low rent when
you trade at Edwards'. We would rather give it to
our customers than to the landlord.
