All candidates , for 'nomination on . the Republican ticket must eome to the for with a '. written pledge to the central com mittee and the rotere of the county by which they each agree to bury Uhe post-primary hatchet and work , for the success of the nomlneea. Thla was decided upon at a meeting of the executive committee held yee 'terday afternoon and a pledge m -. drawn op all ready for the candl 1 dates to sign. The meeting of the execntlre oom- mlttee was called yesterday to pay some of the political debts of the ' organisation bnt after the bill were 'audited and ordered ' paid other things eame tip for discussion. ' It ' was then that the candidates' pledge Idea was brought up for discussion, It had been decided some time ago that the candidates shonld pledge themselves to stand by the success ful nominees but yesterday the Question came up for further dis cussion. It was decided that all ' men who come out for office and 'asked the people to vote for them shonld stand by the voice of their . party members. It was argued that a defeated candidate was by duty 'bound to torn about after the pri maries and, whoop-lt-np for the man who beat him. In line with this belief it was or dered that a pledge be drafted and prepared for every candidate on the .Republican ticket to sign. This draft was prepared and It Is expected that all .Republican candidates will ;com Into camp within the next few days and take the pledge. Failure to sign the pledge required by the central committee will throw ' .the candidate so neglecting into dan ;er of encountering the opposition ,of the central committee during the remainder tffHhe-campaign.

PAID SHERIFF TO SPIRIT AWAY HER WITNESSES Three weeks ago Sheriff R. R. Veale, of Contra Costa county, California, came to Portland as the paid agent of a member of that faction of the Bow On Ton that la held responsible for the murder of Lee Dal Hoy, the wealthy Chinese merchant shot down on his .own doorstep at 27 Pine street four weeks ago. Three days ago Sheriff Veale came to Portland with warrants for the ar rest of the three witnesses upon whom the local authorities depend for testi mony with whloh to oonvlct the two Chinese now under arrest and charged with the commission of tne murder or Lee Dal Hoy. Sheriff veale admits that ne was pri vately paid on the occasion of his first visit; that he accompanied a Chinese interpreter known as "Jake"; that the occasion of his visit was business In connection with the murder of Lee Dai Hoy; that Jake Is aligned with the fac tion of the Bow On Tong held respon sible for the murder; and that at the time he was not acgng as the chief peace officer of Contra "Costa county, California, but as a private citizen under pay of a faction of a Chinese society that had already caused the murder of one wealthy and prominent Portland Chinese merchant and marked three others for slaughter. Znteads Taking CMaese. Sheriff Veale denlea that there la anv connection between his visit here three weeks ago and Ms reappearance armed with warrants for the arrest of the state's principal witnesses against the men charred with the murder of Lee Dal Hoy. "One of my deputies Will arrive here tomorrow morning, he said yesterday "with requisition papers for the three Chinese who were arrested Thursday afternoon and later released on an order from District, Attorney Manning. VI am going ahead,' continued the sheriff, "and- use every expedient know of to get possession of these men and take them back to California with me. No, I am not going to employ any counsel on my own account, out I sup pose the Chinese society that is Inter ested in the prosecution of the tbxre men I am after will have a lawyer on hand when the matter comes before the governor. I have reason to believe that Attorney F. F. Freeman will be on hand wnen the requisition papers are preseniea. Attorney Freeman is the lawyer re- tainea ty tne friends or the men ao cusod of the murder of Lee Dal Hoy to defend mem before the local courts, The three Chinese for whose arrest Sheriff Veale holds warrants from the superior court of Contra Costa county California, are Chen Hung, one of the wealthiest merchants In Chinatown, and Lem YIp and Go Ting Yuen. The two men last nnmed saw the murderers of Lee Dal Hoy running away from the scene of the killing and pointed them out to the police. Chen Hung has a complete knowledge of the formation of the conspiracy to murder and the dispatch of the murderers from the headquarters of the Bow on long in San Francisco. He. with Lee Dal Ho was among the four Chinese merchants placed on the death list when the mur der edict was Issued. The Chinese who swears to the com plaint against them Is secretary of the Han .Francisco now on long, me organ TOES Sizes Sizes FOR EASTER J-.''-'..'

S ' CUSTOM yr $5.00 Isatlon that ordered the killing of the Portland Chinese. The charge Is ob taining moncv by false pretenses. The crime is alleged to have been committed at the little station of Giant, in Contra Costa county. In May, 1906. The local authorities have abundant proof that on the date mentioned ail of the men accused were in this city and therefore could not have committed any offense against the laws In Oiant or any other town in California. The attempt to get possession of the state's witnesses In the murder case and take them to another state on what aDDeare to be a trumped-up charge is so aDDarent that it Is extremely unlike lv that Sheriff Veale will have other company than that of his deputy when he returns t' his official duties in his home county. Governor Chamberlain has been apprised of the situation and when the sheriff presents his requisi tion papers special counsel win be on hand to suDDlement the district attor neys office In fighting the issuance of requisition warrants.

The Eastern dentists have removed from the Rothohlld building to the Merchants Trust building, at the south west corner of Washington and Sixth streets. The entire second floor over the Goddard-Kelly shoe store Is turned Into dental parlors. The reception room Is on the coriferSavhere a splendid view Is afforded of both Washington and Sixth streets, and the row of chairs In the retinue of offices present most unusual scene. Tne pat- ronaa-a of these offices has grown to such immense proportions that a change where more room could be secured was Imperative. we Deneve patrons oi mesa unices will appreciate the fact that we are on the second floor almost as much as anything else, because we are not de- epenaent on eievaiors, aunougn wo ave a new passenger elevator, said Dr. L. L. White, chief of staff, whose portrait accompanies this article. "We are much better prepared than ever to take care of those who have troubles with their teeth. Our extracting rooms. as well as the laboratory where plates; crowns and bridges are made, is the best In the Northwest. All we ask Is a visit to our offices. We are glad to advise people who are having trouble with their teeth, whether they order work or not" Being an old praetlcloner and a licensed dentist In Oregon, Dr. White Is naturally very careful in the selection of his assistants, hence Can guarantee their work to be the very beat that money can buy and- up-to-date In every respect. Charging that his wife blackened his eye with a beer bottle when he tried to remonstrate with her concerning the company she kept, Arthur A. Schans has begun suit In the circuit court for divorce from Evelyn Schans. He says the blow with the bottle was dealt In the Barton rooming house on March It. and he remonstrated because he found her In company with another man. Schans also alleges that his wife de serted him in November, 108. They married In February, lOl. lie says Ms wire nas too rrequenuy Den seen in company with Sidney Ws but does not name the third party alloc e. in tha beer bottle affair. He says his wife took their three-year-old child from the custody of his mother, and he asks the court to award the little one to him when the case is heard.

After 5 o'clock Tues day afternoon It will be everlastingly too late for any one who belongs to th put-off class to qualify for voting at the primaries on April 17. yesteraay was me oanner nay or me season. Nearly all day mere were lines men waiting to nave tneir names en tered on the rolls, and when 9 o'clock ar rived last night It was found that 777 names had been added during the day. The political proportion was about the same as usual, tnere-being 606 Repub licans, 1S6 Democrats and 15 In the mis cellaneous column. Two more days. It Is hoped, will carry the figures well beyond the JO, 000 mark. Another thousand might be attained If the rush of yesterday gains in volume An effort will be made to handle all that come with the least possible delay, but with such a multitude In one day it Is impossible to avoid some confusion.
