SEEK POST AS
OF. SEATTLE
Forthcoming Municipal Cam
paign Finds No Dearth in
Mayoralty Candidates.
OLE HANSON'S NAME LISTED
Austin E. Griffiths, Former Chief of
.Police and City Councilman, Also
Willing to Be Mayor to Succeed
Gill, AYlioSe Light Has Failed.
SEATTLE, Wash.. Dec. 22. (Spe
cial.) Unless the political moulds that
are now taking shape collapse under
latter-day events, there is to be no
dearth of Mayoralty candidates fn the
forthcoming city campaign, who would
bask in the sunlight of public opinion
as Seattle's savior.
It's open season again in Seattle for
the politicians. Filing time for May
oralty candidacies and for the various
other municipal offices to be voted
upon has been ushered in and those
who nurse ambitions to put Seattle
aright with the military authorities
and the world In general are busy mak
ing soundings.
In view of the present situation the
Mayoralty fight this year completely
will overshadow any other battles that
may be impending for the different city
posts. Seattle's political atmosphere,
"which has never really had time to be
clarified from the thick political mud
llnglng that has marked Mayoralty
campaigns ever since Mayor Hiram C.
Gill first introduced himself to Seattle
as official timber, is already becoming
dark in spots.
Election' Significance Great.
The March election has a robust sig
nificance in Seattle. It means the
passing of Gill and that mysterious
quality known as Gillism. In this con
nection it may be well to say that Gill
has not declared definitely that he will
not run for office again, but as his
closest friends admit that he is politi
cally dead, the possibilities of him
again seeking the Mayoralty toga are
pronouncedly thin.
Ole Hanson, unsuccessful candidate
for United States Senator from Wash
ington at the last National election and
former member of the State Legisla
ture, and Austin E. Griffiths, former
Chief of Police and City Councilman,
are at present the only avowed Mayor
alty candidates in the field. But the
Indications are that there will be many
more of 'em. Griffiths as usual was
the first to declare his candidacy. He
announced he would run about two
months ago. Hanson made known his
new political ambition this week.
Of Hanson and Griffiths the former
Is by far the best vote-getter. He is
an excellent speaker and fearless in
his remarks. For years he has been
an enemy of Gill and has always waged
a bitter fight against the Mayor when
ever he came up for election.
Griffiths Proverbial Candidate.
Just what the campaign will develop
If Griffiths and Hanson remain in the
front ranks in the Mayoralty fight is
problematical. During the last city
campaign Griffiths ran against Gill for
office, as be had on two previous occa
sions. Hanson was one of Griffiths' I
warmest supporters, carrying on a vig
orous campaign in his behalf. It was
accepted generally at that time that
Hanson's efforts to elect Griffiths were
Inspired by his bitter antagonism for
Gill and not for any high regard he
bad for Griffiths' qualification for the
office.
Griffiths Is not a good public speak
er. He does not appear to have the
ability to inject that much-desired po
litical pepper into his campaign
speeches. Those who take time to study
him, however, are impressed by his
sincerity. By his long service as a
City Councilman and later as Chief of
Police under Gill for a brief term he
has gained a wide knowledge of city
affairs. Like Hanson he is progres
sive. But his marked failing is his
Inability to make a vigorous, inteerst
tng campaign speech.
Last year Hanson campaigned in the
Middle West for President Woodrow
Wilson. Because of the splendid serv
ices he rendered It looked for a time
that he stood a good chance of receiv
ing a fat Government plum. But this
failed to materilalize and Hanson ap
parently now has given up all hope of
anything coming from Washington.
Labor Being; Watched.
Organized labor, during recent years
a big factor in Seattle politics, is being
watched by followers of political af
fairs with keen interest. With three
men now in the City Council Robert
B. Hesketh, Thomas H. Bolton and
William D. Lane the unions have ac
cumulated an Insatiable political de
sire. Union leaders long have been
hoping for a "union" Mayor in office.
Many think that this is an opportune
time to install him. Just who the nom
inee will be is quite uncertain.
Councilman Hesketh wants to run,
but it Is not likely that organized la
bor will stand solidly behind him. He
realizes this and because of this fact
he is holding off for a time. Bolton is
contented to remain in the Council and
Lane, who was elected to the Council
only at the last election.' feels that he
Is not yet ripe enough to wage a suc
cessful battle for Mayor.
The Central Labor Council this week
called a meeting of its political com
mittee for early in January, at which
time organized labor's candidates in
all probability will be introduced. Hes
keth may run, even though a wider
break in the union vote would result
Considerable pressure will have to be
brought to bear to keep him out of the
contest. '
Former Mayor Secretive.
William Hickman Moore. former
Mayor of Seattle, and now occupying a
seat in tne ity council, has been most
secretive regarding his intentions, but
be is beiner heralded bv hi frinr!a
1 a likely Mayoralty candidate. During
Moore s term as Mayor he made a fa
vorable impression and his election to
the City Council was by a tremendous
ly big vote. Political wiseacres ex
plained Moore's decision to enter the
Council as only the first chapter of a
political serial story. The next step
Moore contemplated, it was reported,
was to ascend again to the Mayor's
chair and then possibly to Congress.
R. H. Thompson, for years City En
gineer of Seattle, wlui was elected to
the Council with Moore, also is said to
have his eyes turned toward the May
oralty seat. Thompson, howecer, re
fuses bluntly to discuss his intentions,
apparently desiring to look over the
field first.
Another prospective candidate is
Hugh M. Caldwell, Corporation Counsel.
Caldwell is a young man and generally
popular. He is a wise politician and a
forceful speaker. He is likewise re
fraining from dropping any loud hints
as to what he intends to do until he
ihas an opportunity to scan the early
crop.
Seattle is hoping that the military
quarantine imposed by Major-General
H. A. Greene, commander of Camp
Lewis, now temporarily away on spe
cial duty, will be lifted before the May
IB
oralty campaign gets actually under
way. Leaders of civic and religious
organizations are fighting against mak
ing this an issue for the candidates to
seize upon. With the new Chief of Po
lice. Joseph L. Warren, winning favor
with the military authorities, it is
thought likely that the ban will be
hoisted before long.
Coos County Legal Advisory
Board Perplexed.
Questions -Apparently Unanswerable
Anne in Connection With Giving
AjMtMtanee to Hegriatranta In Se
lectlvo Draft.
MARSHFIELD. Or., Dec 22. (Spe
cial.) The Coos County legal ad
visory board, consisting of L. A. Lilje
qvlst, chairman; Charles F. McKnight
and C. A. Sehlhrede, together with all
the attorneys In the county as associ
ate aides, are meeting with many un
answerable questions in furnishing help
to the registrants in the selective
draft.
Two men have already presented
themselves who registered while aboard
sailing vessels in Alaskan waters, and
who have no knowledge as to where
they are recorded.
Albin Granstrom gave his home as
North Bend and asked that his name
be filed in Coos County. Sheriff Gage
has no record mentioning him, and he
does not know where to apply to find
his standing.
The attorneys here report that each
questionnaire occupies from one to two
hours' time. Chairman Llljeqvlst, on
the first day, took care of only six men,
although his office was crammed with
applicants. The work was better or
ganized through a meeting of Coos Bay
attorneys, who discussed the features
of the questionnaire from 8 until 11
o'clock one evening.
There is an unusual rush to centers
where information is given out by
newspaper men, to learn the order of
draft numbers, so that registrants may
know when to expect their papers.
.W.W.ASKEDTO CHURCH
"THREK-l'I.VGEnED JACK." GODWIN
TO OCCUPY PULPIT.
"An Explanation of Fonr Degrreea" Will
Be Topic of Sermon at White
Temple Wednesday.
"Three - Fingered Jack" Godwin,
preacher to the proletariat, who has an
argument that I. W. W. and all kindred
agitators find hard to resist, will lec
ture Wednesday night at the White
Temple, Twelfth and Taylor streets, at
8 o'clock. His subject will be "An Ex
planation of the Four Degrees of L W.
W-lsm," and 1000 special invitations
have been distributed among the I. W.
W. members in Portland and others
who are interested.
Mr. Godwin, whose gospel of pa
triotism and right living has caused
scores of I. W. W. members to tear up
their membership cards and publicly
"go patriotic," has arranged to "have
the boys from downtown at the uptown
church," and he wants others who are
interested in the lecture and the fight
against 1- W. W. propaganda to attend
the lecture.
Mr. Godwin recently concluded a tour
of the lumber and construction camps
of the Northwest, and has succeeded in
getting a number of men thinking
along patriotic lines, who otherwise
had remained insensible to the spirit of
the times.

Wall Goes Up Fran Portland Height
Residents That Extensive Damage
Is Being Done.
Some of the Christmas trees gathered
from Portland Heights are responsible
for not a little grief among Portland
Heights residents. - Schoolboys who
have utilized the last few afternoons
in chopping and selling the ever
greens, have Invaded the lots of Heights
residents with little discrimination, and
yesterday . wail went up from prop
erty owners who awoke to find that
during the early hours of the morn
ing or during the night hours, some
of the cherished trees in their yards
which they had been nurturing for
years had been hacked down and car
ried away.
Off Market-street drive, on Portland
Heights it was discovered yesterday
that a large number of trees had been
taken from private residence grounds.
In some instances the trees had been
planted on the lawns as part of the
landscape gardening. One tree in par
ticular had been the pride of the owner
for the last decade. It was 25 feet or
more high and no doubt brought some
enterprising youngster a pretty penny.

Dock Commission Receives Letter
From Census Bureau.
The Portland Dock Commission is in
receipt of a letter from the Census
i Bureau explanatory of a recent article
in The Oregon Voter. In that article,
under the heads of "Dock Revenues"
and "Cost of Dock Service," for the
year 1916, it was stated that the pub
lic dock expenses were $102,129 and
that "the deficit from actual operating
cost" was $57,143. The letter from the
I Census Bureau shows that the report
SHRIHERS
CHRISTMAS
quoted was for the year 1915, when
the dock revenues were hardly half
those of 1916. and that it covered all
the operating expenses of the Port of
Portland as well as those of the Dock
