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.

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. Attorney-General
Palmer, always supposed to be a near
prohibitionist, has thrown off the
mask and in a room on the twelfth
floor of the St. Francis hotel ele-
gant young men wearing Palmer
badges serve you whatever you like

Executive Declares Advertising
Value to State Beyond
Computation.
SALEM, Or., June 26. (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."

was born in Poik county January 13,
1S57. Here she was reared and at
the age of 19 years was married to

to eastern Washington.

Nothing of value is missing from
the store, according to store officials.
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
