THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX. rORTLAXD, OCTOBER 6, 1918. 13 CANDIDATES ACTIVE AS ELECTION HEARS John S. Coke, Conrad S. Olson and James Campbell Out for Supreme Bench. BIGELOW ASKS RE-ELECTION Oscar XV. Horne Files for City Com missioner, While F. C. Howell Announces for Senator to Succeed Mr. Olson. Political activity was pronounced yes terday, with the following result: James U. Campbell, Circuit Judge, of Oregon City, came to Portland and an nounced to friends that he is a candi date for the vacancy on the Supreme Court bench. Oscar W. Horne filed his nominating petition as a candidate for City Com missioner. City Commissioner Bigelow an nounced that he will be a candidate to succeed himself and will file his peti tion within a few days. F. C. Howell announced himself as a candidate for State Senator to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of C. P. Olson, appointed to the Supreme Court. Such were the actual and . positive stands taken. Then, in the way of gossip, it was rumored that J. Francis Lrake will run for the vacancy in the State Senate, and that it is considered reasonably certain that either Phil Metschan, Jr., or John H. Burgard will be a candidate. Also Senator I. N. Pay was mentioned, and James B. Kerr and Hay Barkhurst. the latter saying he will decide Monday. So much for the State Senatorship. Attention is being directed to the va cancy in the Supreme Court bench and It promises to develop one of the warm ly contested spots in the campaign. Jus tice Conrad P. Olson will ask that his name be written on the ballot. Judge John S. Coke is also a contender, and now comes Judge Campbell. Street rumor has it that Fred L. Olson also contemplates making a try for the Su preme Court. Democrats have made no public move regarding the bench, but there are whisperings that possibly Judge John H. Stevenson might be induced to run and then again there are rumors, from democratic sources, that the Demo cratic candidates for state office do not want a Democrat running for Justice .on the theory that a Democratic candi date for the bench would only stir up more opposition from the Republicans. Mr. Horne says that he is preparing to inaugurate an active campaign. He has the indorsement of labor bodies and will virtually be the labor nominee, judging from present Indications. Mr. Horne came to Portland in 1SS2 and in 1897 went to New Yorjc for several years, where he was engaged in gen eral contracting and served as a super intendent and sub-contractor in the construction of the first subway in Manhattan. In 1910 he returned to Portland, and in 1915 he served in the Legislature as a labor Representative In the House. Mr. Horne has been president of the Central Labor Council, was special deputy president of the Bricklayers', Masons" and Plasterers" International Union for four years, his territory being Oregon, Washington, Montana and British Columbia. He i3 married and has two children. "My more than five years of experi ence as a commissioner," says City Commissioner Bigelw, in announcing that he is a candidate, "will make it un necessary for me to make extensive promises as to my policy in case of re election. My policy in the future, as in the past, will be to scrutinize care fully all expenditures and to consider all legislative matters fearlessly and decide as I consider the merits war rant. During the entire' period of my in cumbency 1 have conducted city af fairs as I wouhl my own business. I have worked conscientiously for effi cient, clean, wholesome city govern ment, conducted as economically as conditions would permit, frowning on extravagance of every kind. In every budget session have been in sistent on keeping the tax levy as low as possible and still maintain effi ciency of city service." Mr. Bigelow was elected City Com missioner in the first election under the commission form of government in 1913. At that time he was in the mer cantile business. He was a Represen tative in the Legislature in 1911 from Multnomah County. In 1915 he was re elected with Mayor Baker. During the first four years as Com missioner Mr. Bigelow had charge of tlie Department of Finance, which in cluded the City Treasurer, Bureau of Purchases and Public Market. Since July 1. f917, he has had charge of pub lio affairs, including the Fire Depart- GIRLS! CLOTH AND ITT MOISTEN A DRAW HROUGH HAIR ment, street cleaning, public markets and public employment. F. C.

Hit been received by Portlanders who, by the way, are Republicans. - In his first request for financial as sistance from this source, Mr. McNamee insisted that the funds were needed to insure the election to Congress of only those men who were 100 per cent Amer ican, "in accordance with the aims of he Administration." That letter, writ ten on the official stationery of the Democratic National Committee, was dated August 29. The newest appeal is dated September 14 and is more impera tive, in this letter, received by various Republicans interested in the shipbuild ing industry in the Portland district. Mr. McNamee asserts that it would be "calamity" for the Republicans to grain control of either the House or the Senate of the National Congress. He renews his call for a campaign con tribution and admits that "the quicker you get it to us the more good it will do." In view of this continued activity on the part of the Democratic National organization. Republicans cannot re frain from wondering what, if any thing, was meant by Democrats who proclaimed throughout the United States at the opening of the pending campaign that "politics is adjourned." 1'ortland Republicans regard the Mc Namee letters and the manner of their distribution as a base perversion of war business for political ends. These letters are an insult to more than half of the voters of America." charged one Portland man yesterday, after having received both communi cations from McNamee. "It is a mis representation of the Republicans in Congress, who have uniformly support ed tne President and his war .pro gramme at times when, but for that support, some of the important meas ures of war legislation would have failed of enactment because of the pro nounced opposition of Democratic mem bers of the National law-making body. The President went before Congress a few days ago and asked for equal suf frage as a war measure. This was re jected in the Senate, which has a Demo cratic majority, by Democratic votes. "And now these demands for cam paign funds, coming from the official headquarters of the Democratic party. can be construed as nothing less than one of the most reprehensible attempts ever made by a political party to exact toll from Government contractors. This action of the Democratic National Com mittee should be severely rebuked by the voters In the November election. The text of the most recent McNamee letter follows: "The coming Congressional and Sena torial elections are almost as tmpor tant at this time as a Presidential election would be. "The Republicans are intensely active in their efforts to elect a. Republican House and Senate. "It is the duty of all Democrats to prevent this calamity, for it is a calamity. When you look back over the almost unbelievable achievements of our Commander-in-Chief and the accomplishments of his Administration oyalty demands that we support him in his efforts to prosecute the war to a victorious finish and in the reconstruc tion period to follow. He must remain unhampered in the great work to be done. "We must keep the present Demo cratic majority in the Senate, and in the House, and see to it that the Presi dent is backed up in his 'Win the War" policy. "We hope you will send an early contribution to assist in carrying on the comprehensive educational cam paign now being conducted throughout the country. "The quicker you get it to us the more good it will do. "Addressed envelope enclosed. "Very sincerely vours, "F. A. McNAMEE, "Financial Chairman. "P. S.

Through the woods around them and up to the crest of the hisrh hill line theyi slowly edged their way for hours. When' the top of the hill and ridge were at tained there stretched before them the narrow valleys on whose further slopes are the defenses the Germans have fought so hard to retain. Miles deep in wire and a labyrinth uf newly-made trenches, it obviously was intended as the Germans' next stop. Farm Is Storm Point. Much fighting for possession of the hill centered about a farm on the southern slop. The Americans had taken the southern part of the farm with a rufih and occupied the higher ground. The Germana were forced to pay deaxly for their resistance there as well as in the woods to the west and at other places along the line. It has been learned by American Cove Red Cross Fills Quota. COVE. Or., Oct. 6. (Special.) Cove branch Red Cross filled her quota of 500 pounds of refugee relief clothing on time, but added lis pounds, 700 extra articles, and a package of baby clothes. Mrs. Hugh McCall, chairman military relief, who managed this drive, says the response was hearty and prompt in delivery. Oddly enough, in a fruit and nut place, the response for fruit pits nut -place, the responses for fruit pits need for them seems not to appeal to tne common understanding. WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY NORTHWEST OF VERDUN, Oct. 6. (By the Associated Press, 7 P. M.) Ftghtlnff with the, ferocity of the early days of the war, the Germans did their utmoFt today to brlns to a halt the American offensive. Early this morning and in the fore noon the Americans pushed lorwara through a blanket of fog a yard at a time and later in the day when the mists lifted they drove forward a fur ther distance against the German line. Almost no change hat been made on the right jiear the Meuse, but on the left the operations of the French west of the Argonne forest and the Ameri cans on the east defined more clearly the salient In which the enemy still has a considerable force opposing the Americans, who have been steadily oienrinir the forest of machine-gun nun Kfllfl B-owr an Again the Germans concentrated their greatest efforts on the center In an effort to prevent the swinging up ward of their line to a point wjilch would endanger yet further that part of the army left in the Argonne woods. Although the artillery action of the Germans today was. terrific me vol ume was greater than yesterday there was a notable reduction of aerial effort.- Only occasionally did the German aviators accept the challenge of the Americans today and even a bombing expedition to Landres-Et-St. Georges, where more than two tons or lomtw were dropped, did not develop resist ance. The contrast in the forenoon was not surprising because of tbe low visibility, but conditions in the afternoon were excellent and full advantage was taken of them by the French and Americana. who carried out 100 missions, ranging from simple observation to bombing the back areas. The theory of the aviators is that the Germans have adopted a policy of conserving their airplanes, using them to great extent only on cloudy days, such as yesterday. On cloudy days they can fly by compass above the clouds, swooping below them when occasion demands, then disap pearing above almost Immediately and so escaping all but momentary obser vation. IT. S. Planes Are Active. The American planes were an active factor until late tonight. Before the fog actually had lifted they were over the German lines, machine-gunning the men in the trenches and harassing the transports and artillery. Tanks were used again by the Amer leans, but somewhat less extensively than on the first day. It was a day of artillery action more than anything else. Each side sent hundreds of thou sands of shells, both high explosive. shrapnel and gas. Into the other's ter ritory. Repeatedly the Germans gath ered in force to launch counter attacks, but always with negative result.

The Quick and the Dead People Who Are Easily "Shocked" Should Keep Clear of "Live Wires" i The secret of success consists of first having a definite plan of action, and, second, in putting it over, regardless of adverse criticism. Respectable reactionaries and staid standpatters bewail the "speed" of the twentieth century and question the hon esty, sanity or both of the man who splits seconds to double dollars. The human brain was meant to use the man who brings the greatest amount of happiness to the world is the man who acquaints the most people with the fact that he has for sale the goods they want at a price they can afford. That applies as strongly to the professions as to the channels of trade- The doctor who discovered a positive cure for tuberculosis and merely allowed his friends and neighbors to benefit by his discovery and depended upon their word of mouth advertising would eventually secure plenty of patients, but in the meantime thousands would have died whom he might have saved by publishing his good news to the world. It applies also to dentistry- I found a way to alleviate human suffering by making extractions of teeth painless ; I found a system which saved me enough in "waste" to allow me to give better service and better material to my patients ,than other dentists charging more money. I might havet died with my secret and have been very ethical, but I had just enough humanity and enterprise in me to publish frankly what I could do, and then I DID IT, and the people of several Western states have reason to be thankful that I did so.
