Well, well, we'll say that neith
er Wood nor Lowden are pikers
when it comes to trying to land
a presidential nomination. Low
den and his friends have spent
but a half million or so, and Wood
and his supporters have only
spent a million. That's going
some, eh?01d Monte Christo was
a four-Husher compared to them.
Senator Chamberlain won in
the primaries notwithstanding
the Starkweather people used the
name of President Wilson to de
feat him. The good people of Or
egon know Senator Chamberlain
and appreciate his worth. He
made a Governor beyond re
proach, saved the state and its
people millions of dollars, and in
the United States Senate has
made a name both for himself and
for the great state of Oregon. He
will be elected by a greater ma
jority than ever before. His op
ponent is Mr. Stantield, of Uma
tilla County, who wished very
much to see the Senator defeated.
Washington County gave him
over two to one majority, and this
without a campaign on his part.
CHAMBERLAIN WINS
United States Senator Geo. E.
Chamberlain won in the primar
ies in the state over Starkweather
by practically a two to one vote.
In Washington County the dem
ocratic vote was very light. The
Starkweather faction received
many votes in using President
Wilson's letter, and used the ar
gument that a vote for Chamber
lain was a vote against Wilson.
Thus Chamberlain lost m.iny
votes. The great majority of
democrats, however, did not fee!
that way and registered a bii
vote for the senator, considering
that but a small per cent, turned
out to the polls.
The vote in tin's county
Chamberlain - 475
Starkweather 218
The legislative nominations on
the Dem. ticket were W. J. Mc
Cready, Forest Grove;" F. J.
Stroud, Beaverton, and L. A.
Long. The latter will not quali
fy, so will not be on the ticket.
The Argus does not know as to
the remaining two. John M.
Wall was named for district attorney.

Endorsement of the expansion
movement of the Oregon State
Chamber of Commerce to isise a
budget to carry on its program of
development work by a state
wide canvass was given last
Thursday by the Portland Cham
ber of Commerce. This action
was taken at a meeting of officers
and directors of the Portland
Chamber of Commerce and the
State Chamber held at the Hotel
Benson.
Representing the Portland
Chamber were H. B. VanDuser,
nMMent: A. J. Bale, vice; Max
S. Hirseh, secy.; W. B. Dod-j
son. executive secv.: and Roy T.r
Bishop, F.. G. Crawford. Peter
Kerr and F. H. Strong, directors.
Representing the State Chamber
were Charles Hall, president, of
Marshfield; J. L. F.theridge and
C. C. Chapman, of Portland;
George H. McMorran, of Eu
gene, and E. E. Brodie, of Ore-
Executive Secretary Hudson.!
of the Portland Chamber, was
authorised by the Portland Cham
ber representatives to assist in
the work of organisation for
Portland's participation in the
movement. This followed a gen
eral discussion of the expansion
movement in which it was ex
plained thafit has been launched
for the purpose of enlarging the
scope of activities and strength
ening the State Chamber to be
come a more effective agency of
state-wide development.
President Hall of the State
Chamber declared the movement
will enlist state-wide support
from industries, firms and indi
viduals "who are thinking of Or
egon in terms of the future.'
Wm. Meierjergen, of near
Orenco, was the best guesser in
the presidential contest between
Johnson and Wood. He said the
county would go 300 for John
son, and he missed it by one vote.
He predicted that Johnson would
carry the state by over a thou
sand, and he was some guesser at
that.

The ZlazJS on tht Way to Baguio, Summer Capita of the Philippines.
All aboard! Let's no! We're start
ing from Manila, the great picturesque,
Americanized Oriental city, 'and "i'.l
ttarel by automobile 200 miles to the
north to Bitjjuio, the summer capital of
the 1'bUipplues. The trip can also be
made by train
We have abend of us one of the most
scenic, spectacular and thrilling suto
moblle trips In the world. We will
have excellent roads all the way. The
Philippines are, lu' fact, a paradise fir
sutolsts, possessing 3,'iX) miles of Hue
macadamized roads. !
The first part of the trip Is t brinish
typical small towns and then across
the central plain of Luzon und through
several rich and fertile provinces,
where tropical vegetation Is seeu at lis
best. Here one Is Impressed with ti e
great agricultural wealth of the Philip
pines, which represents one of Hit
East's greatest producing areas, with
the advantage of Immense natural re
sources for the development of further
production. It Is regrettably true that
even In the United States .there Is far
from any real understanding of the
potentialities of the islands.
At some points rice fields, looking In
the distance like the greenest of green
lawns, stretch away as far as the eye
can see. If you want color, If you
want to feel the romance and mystery
of an Oriental twilight, pass this way
as the red, eyed sun at the end of Un
dying day is slowly sinking behind the
uuendlng expanse of green Gelds. At
first you cry out In ecstacy at the
gorgeous scene. But as you ride along,
your eyes fastened on the panorama
of tints and colors, and with, the Im
penetrably black Oriental night eom
. log on fast, you become enthralled.
You no longer try to express your feel
tags. You cannot. Yeu realize tliut those
now fast changing, colorful master
pieces In the heavens and on the land
Scape are pictures that no man cim ad
equately describe nor human hands du
plicate. So what's the use of trying!
True, these are but Impressions, but
the traveloguer considers himself Justi
fied In mentioning them, for they are n
part of the trip to Dagulo and return
Indeed, the gorgeous sunsets In all
part 8 of the Philippines leave an Im
pression on the mind of the tourist that
Is everlasting.
We leave the palms and tropical
foliage and enter the zone of rugged
pine. We pass from the soft, Incense
laden air of the warm lowland to the
crisp, Ipvlgoratiti!? ozone o,f the tern
perate zone, all within u few hours'
Ime.
For mile after m'le the road now fol
lows the tortuous course of n river, the
road lytn.; In Ihe botloi i or on the
rocky sides of a granite cae.vri.
The Pi. Uplines are r!' !i in hydro
electric p; MlltieS. Thl.i po.ver Is the
cheapest power on earth. And It Is
everlasting. Your traveloguer Is nei
ther a prophet nor the son of a proph
et, but he predicts that one d:iy there
will be. Innumerable Philippine govern
ment owned hydroelectric plants In
this canyon we are now passing
through. Think of the possibilities of
such a t ;oJect! Ti day Ik- trip from
Manila to Kuguio Is too expensive for
the average- Manila worker and his
family, many of whom may live and
die without beholding the wondrous
beauties of their own Island of I.u.i i.
Think of what a blessing It woulu be
to Filipino mothers and children to
feel upon their fevered bro.v the cool,
invigorating breezes of the mountain
tops no so near and yet so far I With
the Philippine government owning Its
own electr.'c railways and hydro-elee-tric
plants It would be possible to bring
tli trip to r.uuio within the mi ana of
hundreds of thousands of I'lllplnos
Not only Is there suthVlent power In
this river to electrify a line from Ma
nila to r.uiiulo, but to operate the
street railways of Mantlav light the
city and furnish power for manufac
turing concerns.
But we have now arrived at Camp
One. From this point the scenery
rapidly changes as the elevation In
creases. We are traveling over the
famous Benjuet roud, the cmislructiou
of which through the mountains is a
most remarkable engineering triumph.
At places the road Is blasted out of the
solid grauile. Killing ou the edge of a
100 foot prec'pke makes one feel like
