.Several Are Weighing Chances
Before Breaking Out With
lv Their Announcements.
ELECTION IS 64 DAYS OFF
Will H. Daly, George I. Baker, G.
W. Caldwell, A. II. Averlll and
Ralph W. Iloyt Are Men
tioned lor Mayor.
Next tlg event hereabouts Is the city
lection, which ia only 64 days off. It
Is better than an even bet at this stage
of proceeding's that there will be the
usual scramble of six to a dozen as
pirants for each office.
. Up to the present only one aspirant
lhas formally announced himself. He Is
William H. Warren, Mayor Albee's
private secretary, who Is avowedly In
the race for Mayor. But the woods are
full of others.
Every large tree shields one or more
of the boys who are peeking out, Indian
fashion, to get a good view of the line
tip before Bhylng a spear at the $8000
Job of Mayor, or one of the two joOOO
Jobs as Commissioner that are to be
filled.
The election oomes on Monday, June
4. which Is nine weeks distant. The
cfty charter provides that petitions of
candidacy shall be filed not earlier than
40 days before the election, or April 26
In this Instance, and not later than 20
days before, which will be May Id. So
there Is still plenty of time for pros
pective candidates to take In the situ
ation carefully before committing them
selves. Mr. Laurgraaurd In Race.
The signatures of only 100 registered
. voters are required to petitions, so that
formality will not deter anybody.
While it is still more than a month
(before any aspirant can file his petition
of candidacy, some announcements of
Intention to run may be expected very
shortly.
O. Laurgaard, one of the 12 Repre
sentatives In the lower House of the
Legislature from this county, has defi
nitely decided to run for Commissioner.
His announcement will be made at an
early date. Mr. Laurgaard was engi
neer fn charge of the building of the
(450,000 Tumalo project, and has been
In charge of various Government
projects.
Will H. Daly, present Commissioner
f Public Utilities, has as good as an
nounced himself for Mayor. To be
Mayor of Portland has long been an
ambition of Commissioner Daly's, and
his friends consider the present the
I proper time for him to make the try.
City Plant to Be Issue.
He will undoubtedly run on the issue
f his proposed new municipal electric
light and power plant, for which he has
prepared an Initiative measure, author
izing issuance of $1,700,000 In bonds, to
TO on the ballot June 4.
Commissioner Baker has not Bald he
will run for Mayor, but his friends are
Baying it for him. His hat seems to be
as good as In the ring. He, like Com
mlssioner Daly, may be considered vlr
tually a certainty. Mr. Baker's term as
Commissioner has two more years to
run.
City Treasurer Adams is considered a
probable candidate for Commissioner.
Jfe ran two years ago and was defeated
only by a hair-breadth margin. Mr.
Adams has been thinking of being a
candidate for State Treasurer in 1918,
co he may decide to forego the Com
uisslonershlp. Others Are Receptive.
City Auditor Barbur, however. Is re
garded as certain to run for Commis
sioner. He has served several terms as
City Auditor and has been elected each
time by Increasing: majorities.
Among the several other prospective
candidates for Mayor or Commissioner
ere George W. Caldwell, former member
of the Civil Service -Commission, who
would like to be Mayor: A. H. Averill,
former president of the Chamber of
Commerce, and Ralph W. Hoyt, for sev
eral years president of the Rose Fes
tival Association. Both are mentioned
for Mayor.
Another name frequently heard In the
Fame connection may be withdrawn
from consideration, for George S.
Shepherd" said last week that he would
not be a candidate for Mayor or for
Commissioner, either. Mr. Shepherd
too busy on his proposed new charter to
run for office.
But there are many others who will.
The names mentioned comprise only a
sprinkling of the list. They will be
jrin getting really active within the
next few weeks, and then for a time the
sir will tremble with the thump of hats
dropping Into the ring.
CTiEAN CAMPAIGX PROMISED
V. It. Warner Says Rumor Mongers
Are at Work Already.
William H. Warren, secretary to
Mayor Albee, who announced his can
didacy for Mayor last week, supple
mented the announcement yesterday
with a statement to the effect that he
is emphactically in the race to stay.
"Within the past week, since my can
didacy for Mayor of Portland has been
definitely and publicly set forth," said
Mr. Warren, "a great many voters have
made Inquiry as to what kind of a cam
paign It Is Intended I shall make. Be
cause the ever-ready manufacturer of
pre-election canards is already at work,
evidently in an endeavor to discredit
me thus early probably .to avoid the
rush a brief statement seems proper.
"Personally, It Is my Intention to con
duct a clean campaign, confined to the
Issues of the day, and under no cir
cumstances will I "throw mud."
"Standing upon my record as a cltl
ren of Portland for more than 14 years,
and as a public official for nearly four
years of that time. It will be my aim
to lay before the voters my ideas on
the Issues of the campaign In a candid

manner, entirely avoiding personali
ties. "It is my view that the people of
Portland will be more interested in
what I have to say concerning the out
standing and highly important subjects
connected with the campaign than as
to my views regarding those who may
become my rivals for the office of
Mayor, whoever they may be. (At this
writing I do not know.)
"No matter what the inventive genius
of the fertile-brained manufacturers
of campaign canards may bring forth
and spread broadcast to deceive the
voters concerning the subject, I shall
be a candidate for Mayor and have no
intention whatever of withdrawing
from the race for any purpose whatso
ever. "Just at the present time there is
a rumor to the effect that it is my
intention to do something contrary to
this and, while it will, probably, be im
possible for me to deny all of the false
statements that may be put out, I shall
nevertheless consider it my duty to the
voters to keep them acquainted with
the facts as the campaign progresses.
I will furnish this information through
myself or authorized agents and will
not call upon my opponents to assist
me at any time.
"Meanwhile, I wish again to assure
the voters that, in eofar as I am. con
cerned, the coming campaign shall be
free of 'mud slinging and personalities.
In this manner alone, as I see it, may
we have an opportunity rightly to de
termine the Issues that are before us."

Happy Youngster of Two Has Joy
ous Time In Courtroom While
Parents and Grandparents
Fight for Her Custody.
An attempt of a grandfather and his
second wife to take from an Invalid
mother her right to a fair-haired, hap
py child of 2 years, her chief interest
in life, was frustrated In the court of
Juvenile Judge Tazwell yesterday, when
he decreed that little Helen Elizabeth
Mooiiey should be taken from her
grandfather, E. "V. Sundstrom, of Hills
dale, and given to the exclusive care
of her mother, Mrs. Forreet Mooney,
of 6647 East Eighty-second Btreet.
Mr. and Mrs. Sundstrom endeavored
show, together with Mrs. E. H.
Frazelle, a well-intentioned neighbor.
that Mrs. Mooney should not be allowed
to keep her "daughter, who had been
with the grandparents about nine
months, because Mrs. Mooney was tu
bercular and there was danger of the
babycontracting the dread disease.
Dr. William M. Campbell and Dr.
Robert L. Benson, pathologist at the
University of Oregon medical school
testified that the mother was not tu
bercular, never was, and was an In
valid due to a muscular rheumatism of
serious crippling nature. Bacterlolog
leal examinations had shown no trace
whatever or consumption, and the phy
siclans agreed that it could not en
danger the child's health to be with her
mother.
Keeling; Intenne In Hearing;.
Feeling was intense during the hear
lng, Mrs. Sundstrom resenting the rul
ing of the court and Mr. Sundstrom
also snowing much heat. At the con
clusion, however, Sir. Sundstrom offered
to shake hands with his non-ln-law, Mr,
Mooney, but the younir man refused,
his face pale and his lips set.
Mrs. Mooneys condition was such
that she could not appear at court.
The child played quietly in the court
room and flirted outrageously with
grizzled court attaches.
Mrs. H. P. Tichner, a neighbor who
had been In the Mooney home numerous
times and was well acquainted with
the family, testified that conditions
always were sanitary and that the
mother had need of her baby daughter.
Baby Means All 1o Mother.
The baby girl is all the sunshin
she has all she lias to live .for." said
Mrs. Tichner. teare brightening her
eyes. "The - child means more to her
than children do to many women."
Mrs. I razelle testified to visits which
convinced her that Mrs. Mooney was
tubercular and that the cirl should not
be allowed to stay with her mother.
Mr. Mooney is an elevator operator
on a small salary, but has kept up
home and has a maid for his wife.
Mr. and Mrs. Sundstrom refused to
give the child to the father when he
demanded the girl recently, because
their own convictions, supported by
those of Mrs. Frazelle. Mr. Mooney
went to the District Attorney's office
for relief and threatened to file kid
naping charges, at which the grand
father Instituted the action before the
Juvenile Court for custody of the girl,
Jadse Gives Hiilingr
?'I do not think the evidence Justifies
taking the child from her mother," said
Judge Tazwell at the conclusion of the
hearing. "No tuberculosis has been
shown; the child sleeps in a differen
room from her mother, and I believe
the best interests of 'the child will be
served if she Is allowed to remain with
her mother."
The court suggested that Mrs. Fra
zelle be allowed to visit the home oc
casionally. W. W. Banks, attorney for
the father and mother, protested that
Mrs. Frazelle had been "at least over
zealous" in the matter and asked that
if she was sent an officer of the
court or another woman accompany
her.
Judge Tazwell said that, while he
believed Mrs. Frazelle wa acting from
the best of motives in taking the In
terest she did In the case, that Mrs.

two brands, Giant Stumping and Eureka Stumping to test

takes out the roots. Both gave entire satisfaction and did the
best all around work."
Eureka Stumping Powder will save you money in stump blasting in dry
soil. Giant Stumping Powder is the most efficient explosive for wet work.
Both of these are made especially to meet Pacific Coast arm conditions and do
their work cheaper and better than ordinary dynamites made for general use.
