This -week the presidential cam
paign in Oregon gets under way. , Re
publicans and democrats have se
lected headquarters in the Morgan
building and the preliminaries will
begin. State and county headquar
ters of the republicans are consoli
dated and the same arrangement has
been effected by the democrats. By
this plan the national committeeman,
state chairman, secretary and execu
tive committee, county chairman and
executive committee will be in close
a-nd constant touch.
Not until September will the cam
paign warm up, btif during August
there are many details to work out.
In August there are so many persons
In the mountains, the country or at
the seashore that the campaign man
agers are convinced that it is a hope
less task to try to interest voters in
political rfneetings and speakers.
August Quiet Month.
August will be devoted by the state
republican organization to publicity
and the building up of a skeleton or
ganization for clubs. With the com
ing of September the club movement
will be under way and there will be
a network of republican clubs spread
ing out over the state In every town.
By a combination of state and county
committees and the clubs, a working
force will be developed which will
place Oregon solidly in the republican
column, as usual. Thomas H. Tongue
Jr., state chairman, is working on the
theory that while the state will go re
publican anyway, the thing to do is
to make the majority as big as pos
sible. Through the bureau of publicity,
the public i3 to be reached in August.
The function of this bureau is to ac
quaint the voters with information as
to candidates and the platform and
principles of the republican party.
When September arrives and the
clubs are organized and ready, the
bureau of speakers will get into ac
tion. This bureau, during August,
will select a list of local speakers to
appear before clubs throughout the
state and will get in touch with the
national committee regarding speak
ers to be sent here from other states.
Several Oregon men will go into other
states on the stum-p. C. L. McNary,
United States senator, will speak in
Montana and Idaho, and possibly a
few others. W. L. Tooze Jr., will
speak in the east under the direction
of the national committee. Hiram W.
Johnson. United States senator of
California, will come to Oregon as a
champion of Harding and Coolidge,
according to information given by
Sanfield MacDonald. Johnson's man
ager in Oregon during the primaries.
. Stanfleld to Be Backed.
Special efforts will be put forth by
rhe state organization to elect R. N.
Stanfield to the United States senate.
The appeal will be made to republi
cans to vote the ticket straight; that
if they are consistent to republican
principles they cannot vote for Hard
ing and Coolidge and not vote for the
republican nominee for senator. The
state committee will manage Mr.
Stanfield's campaign.
Woman are taking a full share in
the deliberations of the two campaign
committees this year. They are no
longer placed in a secondary position
and called "advisory." The women
are on the executive committees with
the men and have an equal voice in
the deliberations and planning of the
campaign.
In the democratic camp the pro
cedure is somewhat akin to that be
ing mapped out by the republicans,
with the exception that the democrats
have been advised that their presi
dential ticket. Cox and Roosevelt, will
visit Oregon in person. Mr. Roose
velt is expected to come to Oregon
the latter part of August, but no
positive dates have been announced.
J. L. Day, republican county chair
man, has issued a call for the county
executive committee to meet in head
quarters Thursday night. The con
gressional committee, in charge of C.
N. McArthur's campaign, will meet
and organize Wednesday night.
SCCCESSOR SOT YET NAMED
Prospect for New Postmaster Soon
Rather Dubious.
There is still no prospect of a new
postmaster being' appointed soon for
Portland. Postal Inspector Barclay
Is still managing the office, although
he expected to be relieved a month
ago. There were 22 applicants for
the appointment and these have been
interviewed by inspectors and the re
ports forwarded to Washington, D. C
where the applicants will be rated
according to the findings of the in
spectors and the names submitted to
the postmaster-general.
The postmaster-general is expected
to make a recommendation from the
list and the president makes the ap
pointment. Congress having ad
journed, there are persistent rumors
afloat that the president will make a
recess appointment.
EHATDRS TO V1SITSJATE
CHAMBEEMDT AND McXiRY
TO GATHER INFORMATION.
Jaants of Both Solons to Lead to
Every Section to Find Out Xeeds
of Their Constituents.
Oregon's Quota of United States
senators will go afield this month to
gather first-hand information regard-
ng the needs of the state. Senator
Chamberlain plans a statewide tour
by automobile. He will enter the
state via Crescent City, along the
coast road on the edge of Curry coun
ty, into Coos Bay, and theme all along
the coast. Later he will traverse the
Willamette, Umpqua and Rogue river
valleys, then penetrate central and
eastern Oregon.
Senator Chamberlain starts this
week and plans to be on the road for
month. Few speeches have been
arranged for, but If invited by com
mercial clubs the senator will respond.
Senator McNary also will renew ac
quaintance with the state, and, like
his colleague, will first visit the rivers
and harbors, then go into southern
Oregon. After a rest in Salem he will
swing into central and eastern Ore
gon. - Senator McNary has planned no
political talks.
The senators say that they wish to
take advantage of the congressional
adjournment to find out exactly the
conditions in Oregon to the end that
they will be better equipped to look
after the state's interests when they
return to Washington.

Granite Road Completed.'
BAKER. Or., July SI. (Special.)
The Granite road extending from
Granite to the Baker county line has
been completed and, according to
those who have made the trip over
It. it Ls one of the best mountain
roads in the country. W orkers have
been employed on this road since the
f.rst of last May. The total cost i
estimated at $3600. 11500' of which
w as subscribed by Grant county. Jlioo
by the "hitman forest service and
iG0 by the citizens of Granite.

rsrookings, Coquille, Marsh field and way points. It will be a mixed vacation and campaign tour. The
senator says he hasn t had a vacation since 1894, and Intends to see what a rest Is like on this trip. So
he will take along a camping outfit, sleep where night overtakes him, meet the voters incidentally and
make a leisurely tour of it. He expects to return to Portland in about two weeks and later will tour
otner parts of the state in bis Ford. '
a full and complete and comprehen
sive investigation will have been had
and a measure submitted to the legis
lature which will be supported by the
results of the Investigation.
Under the contract it is agTeed that
the bill shall provide for the elimina
tion of all seines and set nets from
the Rogue river. Inasmuch as the
bill that was passed by the 1917 legis
lature and defeated by the people and
the bill that was passed In 1919 and
vetoed by Governor Withycombe pro
vided for nothing else but the elimi
nation of seines and set nets, the
upper river men feel that they have
made great progress in establishing
an agreement on this point.
The contract also provides for a
shortening of the commercial fishing
season and a later date at which com
mercial fishing shall be commenced
in the Rogue river. The real differ
ences between the parties to the con
tract seem to narrow principally to
the time when commercial Ashing
shall commence. The concession of
fered by the canneries as to when
fishing shall commence Is not accept
able to the upper river men nor to the
government representatives operating
the Elk creek hatchery. It is con
tended by them that commercial fish
ing should not commence until June
15, which is 60 days later than the
opening of the present season.
Among vthose who will make the
trip are the following: Judge E. D.
Briggs, Louis Dodge and Harry Hos
ier of Ashland; George Mansfield,
D. M. Lowe, Senator C. M." Thomas and
C. M. Kidd and others. Any members
of the association or citizens of the
county interested in this subject are
invited by the committee to go and
requested to communicate with
George Mansfield, president.
RICH GOLD BODY FOUND
PROMISING ORE IS UNCOVERED
NEAR GOLD II ILL.
Strike Said to Insure Future Sta
bility of Sylvanite Mines
Now Under Lease.
GOLD HILL, Or., July 31. (Spe-
sial.) The uncovering of a large
body of rich ore In the Sylvanite
group of gold mines two miles north
of Gold Hill, under lease to Victor W.
Brown and associates of Pittsburg,
Pa., and owned by J. W. Davies and
ocal people. Insures the future sta
bility of these mines. This property
is the only quartz mine at present in
active operation in this region. Gold
mining has been almost wholly sus
pended In this district since 1914,
excepting the large hydraulic placer
mines which have extensive water
rights.
The new find was made in the
lower level of the old works, at a
depth of more than 500 feet, running
in value from $2C to $50 a ton in gold
and silver, and compares favorably
with the rich galena ores of the
southwest states. The several mines
constituting the group, known as the
Simmons, Cheney, Haff, ; and Ray
mines, have been extensive gold pro
ducers for 30 years, but worked in a
crade way until the present owners
arid lessees began development. '
There has been considerable interest
in this property since the discovery in
1S16 of tungsten along with the gold
ore? by Ray & Haff of Gold Hill, who
were operating the mine. The mineral
occurs In small stringers with quartz
and ore running from 2 to 40 per
cent tungsten was extracted. The
veins carrying the best grade of tung
sten have been developed only to a
small extent and the tungsten re
sources of the- mine, therefore, have
not yet been determined.
WATER DISTRICT SLATED
Squaw Creek Movement Is Report
ed to Be Under "Way.
SALEM, Or., July 31. (Special.)
A movement to include all lands
served with irrigation from Squaw
creek into one district - has been
started, according to Percy Cupper,
state engineer, who returned here to
day from Sisters, Deschutes county,
where he attended a meeting of those
persons interested in the project.
Petitions were reported in circula
tion and in case there Is no opposi
tion to the proposal the new district
will be formed as soon as the direc
tors of the Squaw creek project can
take proper action.

ON

and Unscrupulous Persons" Tat
ing Advantage of Session.
SALEM. Or., July 81. (Special.)
That Salem lodge No. 336, Elks, has

deed committed by or authorized to
be done by the lodge, its members or
the state association during the
recent state convention of the order
neld In this city was set out in i
resolution prepared by a special com
mittee of the local lodge of Elks
following a special meeting of the
organization held here last night.
The resolution, 'n part, follows:
"We deplore the fact that certain rmirh
and uuscrupulous persons took advantage
of the occasion to carry out their unlaw
ful Bckemea to thef detriment of the
peace ana dignity or our fair city. We
cheerfully submit, however, the personnel
of Salem lodge No. 33 for comparison
wnn any otner organization of like char
acter aa to its American citizenship, patrt
otism and law-abiding qualities.
The resolution further et forth

tain acts during the convention, but
that these acts, if committed, were
not sanctioned by the lodge. Also
that at no time during the conven
tion was there within the Jurisdic
tion of the lodge rooms of the Salem
lodge, club or any place under the
management of the state convention
or Salem lodge any unpatriotic, un
lawful or improper act performed to
the knowledge of the lodge.
Adoption of the resolution bv the
Elks followed published criticism by
the Salem Ministerial union, in which
it was charged that such acts as were
committed in Salem during the state
Elks' convention promoted un-Ameri-canism
and rowdyism. The resolution
was by E. W. Hazard, T. B. Kay, P.
H. Olinger, Charles R. Archerd, M. T.
Meyers, Arthur S. Benson and V T.

Frank S. Myers, deposed postmaster
of Portland, has notified democratic
offclals that he will be a candidate
for United States senator In Novem
ber. Myers, although supporting Cox
and Roosevelt, Is not supporting Sen
ator Chamberlain for re-election. He
is not only not supporting Chamber
lain dui is out with an ax after him.
According to current Brossin in dem
ocratic circles. Myers intends to be
an independent candidate, to "vindi
cate" himself, unless, perchance, be la
reinstated on the payroll as postmas
ter. Mr. Myers contends that he is
still postmaster, even though he Is
collecting no pay; that he has not
resigned his office and cannot be re
moved without the consent of the
United States senate.
Ring: Exposure Promts M.
Both Dr. C. J. Smith, democratic
state chairman, and Dr. Elof Hedlund,
democratic county chairman, have re
ceived visits from Mr. Myers, who is
said to have imparted the important
Information that he will be a sen
atorial candidate. Mr. Myers even
penetrated the. sanctum sanctorum of
democratic headquarters in the Mor
gan building to reveal his plans. It is
understood that both the state and
county chairmen bore up nobly and
with great fortitude under the blow
and that what was Intended to. be an
explosion of dynamite proved a dud.
As the story goes, Mr. Myers con
siders himself the victim of the
"Chamberlain ring." This "ring,"
supposedly, has many ramifications,
subterranean mostly, but with here
and there surface outcroppings. The
ramifications, according to Mr. Myers,
wind their devious ways into news
paper offices, into state and political
offices, into the federal building, the
statehouse at Salem and the United
States senate chamber, into banking
circles and into republican as well as
democratic zones.
Vindication Is Soosrtal.
In self-defense and for vindication,
Mr. Myers has let it be known, ac
cording to report, that he intends ex
posing Senator Chamberlain and all
of his political cronies, republican
and democratic. In the list to be held
up to pitiless publicity openly arrived
at are such indivduals as Oswald
West, former governor of Oregon:
Clarence L. Reames, former United
States district attorney for Oregon
and later in charge of the espionage
operations fo the department of jus
tice on Puget sound during the war;
Bert B. Haney, another former United
States disrtlct attorney for Oregon,
and sundry and divers others who,
Mr. Myers suspects, have pulled polit
ical chestnuts out of the fire for Sen
ator Chamberlain.
So, it appears that if Mr. Myers gets
into action he will contribute much
to the gaiety of nations during the
campaign, even though he runs third
in a field of three. As the primaries
have been held and nominations made,
it is impossible for Mr. Myers to be
other than an independent candidate.
Defeat Not Conceded.
In the democratic primaries a vig
orous attempt was made to defeat
Chamberlain with Harvey G. Stark
weather, formerly state chairman, but
without success. The celebrated Wil
son letter to G. E. Hamaker. former
county chairman, which put the issue
straight up to democrats to choose
between Wilson and Chamberlain,
was expected to be an ace card in
the primaries, but it proved a deuce
Chamberlain won out over the irrec-
oncilables of his party in the pri
maries, but Mr. Myers, and a few of
intimates, refuse to consider
