THE SUNDAY OREGONIAX, TOIITLAND, AUGUST 20, 1916. OREGQN IS GLASSED AS HUGHES STATE Washington Star Writer Says Issue of Protection Will Win for Republicans. WOMEN'S VOTE ANALYZED Eastern Expert Says Some Sympa thetic Feeling for Mr. Wilson Exists, but Says Women Are Taking Broad View. OEEGOXIAN NEWS EUKEAU, Wash ington, AxizS. 19. A- staff correspondent of the Washington Star, who is trailing Jlr. Hughes on his Western trip. In a dispatch from Portland today comments on the effect of the Kepublican candi date's visit to Oregon, saying: "This state will go Repualican in the Presidential electiton on tho straight issues of protection and preference for Kepublican as against Democratic poli cies. This result will follow the bal loting in November, notwithstanding the existence of a strong sympathetic feeling for President Wilson which hos not been lessened by Mr. Hughes' visit. Women Held Open-Minded. "It will go Republican simply because there are more Republicans than Dem ocrats in Oregon. "An important new element in the balloting will be approximately 100,000 woman voters. It is contended by the Democrats that they have the 'edge' on the Republicans with regard to the Bupport of the women on tempermen tal and sentimental grounds. They as sert that the women are enthusiastic to the point of fervency over the idea hat Prsident Wilson 'has kept us out of war" and it is said that the devo tion to the President's cause on this ground is raised to a pitch of hero worship. - "The Republicans say the women are not idealizing the situation to such ex tent, but are taking practical consid erations into account, such as the mar ket basket and the rent money, as well as the broad proposition of the differ ence in the attitude of Mr. Hughes and President Wilson on Nation-wide suf frage. Tariff Talk Wins Vote. "Oregon is fruitful ground for tariff discussion, as the state has suffered from prostration of its lumber industry, which is laid to the tariff. Oregon probably has profited less than any other Northwestern state out of the war, and there not only is no fictitious prosperity here, but less than normal good times. "Mr. Hughes plowed deep and sowed well this favorable ground for tariff discussfon in his speeches. Only one ground of criticism of him is en countered and that is that Mr. Hughea attacked the President of the United States." This is having a certain de gree of effect, in the opinion of un biased local observers, and will turn some Progressive votes to the Presi dent the Republican National commit tee has apparently got down to organi zation on its list of states.

THREE ROADS NEAR BORDER County Cruise Gives Merchantable Stand in "16-6" as 1,292,153, 55 0 Feet, Owned by Weyer baeusers, Soon Available. MONTESANO, Wash.. Aug. 19. (Spe cial.) Three of the big logging con cerns of the county are negotiating for a slice of the heaviest timbered township in the United States town ship 16, range 6. W. M. It is a race for millions if logs go up, as is expected. The racers are C. H. Clemons, of Montesano, whose logging road out from Melbourne, is now near the head of Vesta Creek; the Saginaw Timber Company, with a logging road out Delezenne Creek within a mile of the north boundary of "16-6," and the Na tional Lumber & Box Company, with a road out Williams Creek from Cedar ville. Air. Clemons probably is closest to the goal though it is bound to be a close go between his works and the Saginaw people. The National at last reports was further away rrom the township border, but" is nearer to the actual timber than cither of the other two. "Sixteen-six," a number with which every logger and timberman of West ern Washington is familiar, while only a fractional township has 1.292.453.650 feet of merchantable timber according to the cruise made by the company. Besides that there are a lot of piles, posts and other small stuff. There is one section that has nearly 81.500.000 feet of merchantable timber section 21. It is said, however, to be a hard section to log. Section 9 has more than 64.000.000 feet of merchantable timber and several other sections have 60, 000,000 or more. It is nearly all owned by the Weyerhaeuser Timber Company. The northern boundary ia seven miles south of Elma. Of course timbermen have known of this township since timbermen have been cruising for fortunes, but until recently it has been inaccessible lor logging. Several years ago some of the shrewder of the loggers in the. east end of the county began building logging roads toward it and had not the slump in log prices followed so closely on the ' heals of the tariff revision it is likely that berore now Mr. Clemons or the Saginaw people would have been down there. That negotiations are under way for a part of this township now is hardly a secret. That three or four different concerns are negotiating is more than a suspicion, and, owing to high taxes and the danger from fires since logging works are coming so close to it, it is reasonable to assume that the owners will be willing to dispose of it.

COLUMBIA -1 FORD TARPLEY, CREATOR OF VEDA, TO GO FORTH Society Film "Vampire May Introduce Portland Success in San Francisco. California Atmosphere and People Expected to Offer Fruitful Field. THE departure of Veda, the promi nent "vampire," as revealed in the denouement of the Portland so ciety film, is a presage of the action contemplated by Ford Tarpley. who as author, producer and director of the film, and interpreter of the difficult vampire role, was principally respon sible for the success achieved here. The quest of pastures now occasioned in the story of the vampire by the tedium of .clothes, money, position, jewelry and respectability, will paral lel theleave-taking of Mr. Tarpley. who plans to set out shortly for San Fran cisco, with tho more material object of supervising an improved set of ad ventures whi:h the society folk of the Eav City will transact. What Veda will do in San Francisco depends upon the present negotiations between Mr. Tarpley and the people behind the film enterprise there, ar.d which still are awaiting final settle ment. Nm Field ProminlnK. Aftelr reviewing the various oppor tunities which San Francisco hns to offer an earnest, hard-working adven turess, Veda has already conceited plans for a series of society episodes which are unprecedented, both in dar ing and in originality. She expects to be much happier in the new environ ment, since the larger city lacks many of the conventionalities which she finds depressing. To operate successfully a vampire must transcend the limitations under which the inhabitants of the average American metropolis are able, aa a rule, to live happily, but which to more worldly individuals are little short of stifling. The San Francisco people encourag ing the production of the vampire film already have dinplayed unusual enthu siasm, and in offering Veda the free dom of their city, and the accessories, the personal co-operation, and tia money backing required, have also made the promise that no legltlmite factor of art shall suffer under undue restraints. Atmosphere Is Fruitful. Mr. Tarpley plans to produce a lllm in San Francisco in which many ele ments of his Portland success will . repeated, but whether or not the end ing must consist of a final elopment with $50,000 in stage money depends upon the congeniality of San Franci.ico surroundings. Although the plot Incidents will be varied to suit the abilities of the re sources of the San Francisco collabo rators, the general conception of the Veda film is considered from every standpoint the most fruitful that could be found. The production will have the same charitable object, but as a very Im portant incidental it. is intended to afford vast amusement to the partici pants, whoare expected to shoulder the c Cuba's president has signed a. decree ap pointing a commission to etudy the question of nationalizing t" . railroad there.

That Mr. Tarpley will succeed admir ably in the undertaking is little doubt ed here, since he has shown himself gifted with the unusual Imaginative power required. During his residence in Paris and in London none of the various activities into which he has en tered ever has lacked the grace of originality. Ventures Show Originality. As the proprietor of a smart Ameri can pop-corn shop In Paris, as a jour nalist In Fleet street, as a literary agent in Fleet street, as a writer of modern short stories, as an inventor of unusual scenario situations. Mr. Tarpley has shown a distinct individu ality. His preference of the bizarre and the unexpected has been carried out as well and as successfully !n the plays, and the stories of which he is the author, as in the adventurings which he lias carried on In a score of interesting plaoes. His skill seems to lie In trans forming ordinary material into wors of distinction and smartness, so that his excursions Into the cinematographic field are sure to produce something new. The date of Mr. Tarpley's departure for San Francisco is contingent upon the completion of necessary prelimi nary arrangement, and upon the com pletion of the recuperative spell re quired by the stress of his work here.
