John Barrett, director of the Interna
tional Bureau, of American Republic,
arrived In Portland lad night from
Washington an route to Seattle and
stated thla morning , that Governor
George- H, Chamberlain la being favor
ably apokea of by eastern Democrats
for the vice-presidential nomination In
J0J. Mr, Barrett also stated that, while
President Roosevelt could be renomlnat
ed and reelected next year, he would not
be candidate.
la speaking of the political situation.
Mr. Barrett said:
- "The chief topic of discussion now
In Washington is whe will be the Re
publican and Democratic candidates for
president ana vice-president in lios,
Other subjects come up for considera
tion for a little while, but they all give
way to the presidential problem. Al
though! am not myself meddling In
polttiosv be cause my present position
and work as director of the International
bureau of American republics prevents
it. i constantly come into Contact with
those who are directly concerned In
national politics.
'-. Chamberlain M Yloe-Fresident.
"Perhaps the most Interesting thing
-i nave neard recently is the auggestlon
among a class of Democrats In the east,
who want to bring the whole country to
'the support of the next Democrat io
ticket, is that an eastern man like Judge
uray or veiaware or Judie Harmon of
jjOhio, or possibly - ex-Governor Francis
or c lxiuisv should be named as can
didate for president, with Governor
George' H.; Chamberlain of Oregon as
candidate for vice-president I "
"Chamberlain is well and favorably
known in the east and south, and there
seems to be an opinion that, on account
f his persons! popularity In Oregon,
where ha has been elected governor In
the face of a Republican majority, that
be could carry the three, -coast atafaa
Oregon. California and Waahlngton, for

statement Just before Ms last election
that he will not be ft candidate for re

'He holds that this utterance was
sufficient and that he does not have to
