BRYAN " IN PREDICAMENT Keegran for the prevention of what might have been a serious fire yes terday morning when a pedestal which had been used for decoration during the festival and convention caught fire while the boy was carry ing it out of the building of the music house. In spite of the fact that the blaze swept over the pedestal, fad by the dry palm bark with which It was covered, the boy carried it 'to the street and put the fire out with a bucket of water. Muir, who lives at 246 McMillen, was uninjured. The pedestal is believed to have been ignited by a snark when a light i globe was broken by the pedestal striking it as it was being carried out. Sparks from the broken globe attracted by the wire, which wrapped the pedestal, are believed to have ignited the palm bark.

W.W.SMITH PASSES NATIVE OP POLK COUNTY DIES AT HOME OF DAUGHTER. BY CHARLES C. HART. Washington. D. C. Correspondent for The Orrgonian. SAX FRANCISCO. June 26. (Spe cial) Because he Is bound and gagged! under the unit rule so far as his vote is concerned, and although he is as dry as the Sahara, William Jennings Brvan must vote for a wet candidate. He is one man who rises nbove the other 1096 delegates. Per haps he is not always right, but he is eternally honest and not afraid to is leak his convictions. No Charles F. Murphy, no Tom Tag rart. no -Bathhouse John" or Dennis Euan is telling Mr. Bryan where to head in. He will be heard in tn:s convention and one of the tools of the biggest bosses was heard to say mis morning: Th nroe-ramme of this convention shoulii allow one day and a half for Kniielnhina- of old Bryan; after mat we can get down to business and nominate our candidate," not Bry an's." Root of BoMirrltm Detected, Observe the preliminaries of this .onvpntion for a half day ana men one can detect the root of bolshevism. It Is just such performance as is go- Inr on here that breeds tne germs the Lenine-Trotzky epidemic. Bole ahevism. f course, is not the cure, but men in their anger and desperation are wont to turn to impractical rem dips. Bolshevism is fully accounted for on the basU of what is happening here. The bolshevist may aptly be compared to the fellow driving a nail, wfio. having .Slugged his finger, f the nail. burls the hammer through a' costly plate i . . - .i u- , ft niinlsh the inani mate object which innocently caused ! his. pain. But the thing that is go ing on here is neither inanimate nor innocent. It is brazen and merciless. Kven the candidates have discov ered that it is the bosses and not the delegates with whom they must deal, and thus they are making their ap peal. Candidates who . have hereto fore been dry to the outside- world are making it clear to the bosses that they are wet.

(Special.) "The convention of the Mystic Shrine and the seremonial of the Rose Festi val was a most wonderful success and will give Portland and Oregon unpar alleled advertising," said Governor Olcott, in a statement issued here to night. "The attention directed to this state hereby will rival and eouai even that of the Lewis and Clarke ex position. Everybody seemed to have the time or their -lives, and so ex pressed themselves. I have never known such an unanimity of sentiment. "The bringing of the Shrine to Portland and the housing and taking care or the iuo.000 visitors was a herculean task and one that might well tax a much larger city than Portland. To many it seemed almost impossible of accomplishment. How ever, the Shrine has come and gone and the task is done and done won derfully well. Its accomplishment was only made possible by the active co-operation and sympathetic inter est of all of our citizens. All Shrinedom says it was the big gest event in their history of annual conclaves. They say this, not in an swer to inquiries, but voluntarily and enthusiastically advance it them selves. Portland has set a standard that may never again be equaled. Practically every community of the country was represented, and in con sequence, Portland and Oregon hos pitality, scenic and climatic wonders and natural advantages will be sounded throughout the continent. "The visit of the Canadian roval northwest mounted police. Mayor R. H. Dale, of Vancouver, B. C, and the Kiltie band of that city, all of whom participated in the festivities, was a marked feature of the Shrine and Rose Festival. The presence of this famous or ganization of "mounties" marked an epoch in the history of the western hemisphere, inasmuch as it was the first time they have ever been per mitted to cross the international boundary into the United States, thus extending and further cementing the bonds of friendship and amitv that have existed uninterruptedly in 100 years of peace."

Mrs. unland was removed to her home, 117 Filmore street, where it was said that she would suffer no ill effects from the experience. According to Mrs. Unland's story as reported to the police, Mrs. Unland trailed a woman through the store until she saw her pick up a valuable fur coat and start off with It. - Mrs. Unland arrested the woman, she said but the latter whipped out a hypo dermic needle and plunged, it - twice into Mrs. Unland's back,, paralyzing her so that she dropped to the floor unconscious.

Some Are Respectable. It is eaid here quite .frequently that you can identify an Edwards sup porter by his nose and a Cox man by his breath. That is not altogether true because there are some very re spectable men here supporting Gover nor Cox. These, however, are mostly . men who believe in the inalienable right of every citizen to carry a little flask on his hip or that the alcoholic content legalized by the Volstead act should be extended somewhat. The Cox followers are foaming to day like old-fashioned German lager cooled to 38 degrees Fahrenheit. But there is a hot foam. The reason is that their attention has been called to a statement issued - by William Jennings Bryan in which he says that the Cox candidacy is an insult to the 15,000,000 women who will have the ballot in the November elections. Mr. Bryan Accused. Mr. Bryan is accused of referring In this way to the Cox divorce trou bles. The McAdoo boom- rises and falls today according to the edition of the San Francisco papers you hap pen to purchase. One edition Bays McAdoo leads and then only develops for him in Its news columns a strength of 18 votes, while another odltlon carries the flaming headline, "Combine Made to Defeat McAdoo." I am making no predictions because one never can tell who will -finally obtain the favor of the three or four men who dominate this convention, but I do not bellev McAdoo will be nominated. Postmaster-General Bur leson's declaration for McAdoo will not help him. A newspaper friend in whose judg ment 1 have always placed much con fidence told me today that the nom inee will be. either John W. Davis of West Virginia, the ambassador to the court of St. James, or Homer S. Cum- mings, chairman of the national com mittee. Davis does look like a safe comDromise and -Cummftiga' like- good possibility because there Is no doubt that practically all of the Pal mer votes could be delivered to him All of the bosses like, Cumminga be cause he has abdicated in their favor on virtually all the big questions of organization in this - convention. It is therefore counted that if Taggart and Murphy should suddenly decide to consolidate their dolegates with the Palmer delegates in support of Cummlngs the verdict of the con vention would be near. Bosses Try Camouflage. The light that has been turned on the bosses of this convention has eeemed. to make It necessary on the part of theso political despots to ef fect some camouflage to their coarse work. For instance, it was announced this afternoon that Bosa Taggart had decided to call the Indiana delegation together and have the unit rule dls carded and permit the delegates to vote their own sentiments. This move of course is transparent because Tag gart knows that the delegates which he selected would not in a single case vote contrary to his wishes. Furthers more,, the situation is such that the bosses see the mistake of throwing all their blocks of votes into one grand pool. In an early ballot it will be necessary to feed the votes in few at a time, increasing the number for the posses choice on each suc ceeding ballot in such a way that it will look as though the nomination has come about by a form of popular evolution, The women delegates, from "Wash Ington state were entertained thl afternoon at the Palace hotel by Mrs. Antoinette Funk of Chicago, the chief of the woman s section of the William G. McAdoo campaign. The guests were Mrs. Emma A. Housman, Seattle; Mrs J. M. Simpson, Spokane, and Miss Edna Crantrle, Seattle. A. J. Hunsaker conducting the serv ices.
