Two of Fonr Men Escaped

Captured Near Milton.
(United Frew Leased Win.)
. Walla Walla, Wash., Juno ItAfter
peppering their trail to prevent the
bloodhounds from following them, Ray
Baker and RobeVt J. McMannamy, mili
tary prisoners at Port Walla Walla,
were overtaken about half way to Mil
ton late last night and. recaptured by
20 mounted men. ' .
Edward Hlnnerwadel and Clifford
Polan, who escaped shortly after ; the
other two got away, are at large, al
though soldiers are searching for them
with bloodhounds. Pepper has been
fut on their trail and the dogs are
avlng hard work to keep the scent.
The escape was peculiar. The first
two men were doing police duty and
attacked the sentry with a rasor. The
sentry threw up his gun to protect him
self and the prisoners took his gun and
belt away from him. While the troops
were out searching for them the other
two men ; who were near the hospital
escaped. .

- Taft Ken Confident.
With the certainty : that Taft will
have a wide majority on the first ballot,
.according to the formation of the tem
porary roll and the rather general be
lief that his supporters will be able to
make the temporary roll permanent
with few changes, the interest here is
being directed toward the selection -of a
vice-presidential candidate. This Is true
in spite or tfee claims or tno auies inai
they are not dead yet.
State Senator Alfred R. Page of New
' Tork. close personal friend of Governor
Huirhes. threw cold water on a move-
rment to boom him for the vice-presidency
when he arrived today and aaid:
'Governor Hughes will ' not1 accept a
nomination for the vice-presidency even
if it is offered to him. He has said
that he could not and he meant it when
he said It. He Is not a candidate for
the vice-presidency and I make this
statement with full authority." ;
It is known that Governor Hugnes,
who is a man of small means, has been
forced to pay 25,000 out of his own
pocket for expenses during hi term
"of office as governor of New York. It
.is estimated y his friends that he
could easily make tlOO.OOO a year Drac
tlclng law in New York 'and that he
could not afford to be vice-president

the office are good. Ha will hava the
full support of the Marlon county dele
gation, and being a Statement No. I
man, he expecta tho support of the
Statement No.. I legislators.
It Is realised that tha contest for ths
speakership is going to ba a bitter one.
A glance at tho situation Is sufficient
to make anyone aware of that fact It
will require II votes to elect a speaker.
Twenty-five members are Statement
No. 1 men, It aro anti-Statement No. 1
Republicans and eight are Democrats.
It lo merely a matter of a caucus or no
caucus. '
Unless the Statement No. 1 Repub
licans and the antls can get together on
a candidate In caucus tho Democrats of
the house will be able to dictate a
speaker, and victory aeems more likely
in that event to perch, on the banner of
the Statement No. 1 faction of tha Re
publicans. ,-
Other Candidate. .
Besides Mr. 1 Patton there ara three
other aspirants. Gt N. MacArthur, anti
Statement No. 1 of Clackamas and
Multnomah, is writing to all the representatives-elect

good because or tho fact tie is almost

The first campaign buttons arrived
here today and are oelng displayed by
the friends of Senator Knox of Penn
sylvania. They say they realise he has
no chano for the nomination but ex
plain: "He is a good fellow and we
are good fellows shouting for him."
Charles R, Taft. brother of the candi
date, was induced by an enthusiastic
crowd of Pennsylvanlans to wear
Knox tratton but he kept it on only a
few minutes.
The national committee today decid
ed to consolidate all the contests from
Texas snd hear them at once. This
, will bring about an earlier adjourn
ment of the committee.
' Tha boosters of Cortelyou, Hammond,
Guild, Fairbanks, Dolllver and others,
mentioned for the vice-presidency aro
busy today urging the claims of each.
Timothy L.- Woodruff, state chairman
of New York also is getting into the
race.
Taft won the whole Texas delegation
today carrying the consolidated contest
: In that state. Major Bryan, counsel for
the allies, withdrew the anti-Taft con
tests for delegates at large from Vir
ginia, the contestants falling to appear.
The remainder of the Virginia contests

all in short order.

ARE THE BEST
'
The Motor, Inside and out, architecturally and mechanically, In beauty
and utility. .is a great advance over any other talking machine. The new
Motors will run from one to five large records with one winding; does not
need oiling for two years; not a part to get out or order.
The motors are Interchangeable, all parts are alike and will fit the One
spring, two springs or three springs.' Less parts for you to carry. ,,
It runs without noise, with perfoct uniformity and steadiness, and can
be woand while running. Records can be placed in position instantane
ously, and tho horn sdjustment is simple and secure, in short, the new
Zon-o-phone has hardly ono mechanical feature or fixture which Is not
an improvement upon all its predecessors. We knew these instruments
would create a big demand when once seen and heard and they have.
They are the best that money and 'brains can produoe. We would like to
have you compare the Zon-o-phone with any other Talking Machlnea on
the market, and, if not as represented you can return them for full credit.
