It was at the conclusion of Mrs. Trumbull's speech that Councilman Baker, probably nettled at her reference to- ma lire-saving crew resolution, canea her to task and Subjected her to a vol ley of questions as to how the Asso ciated Charities conducted its affairs, ending by proposing his resolution ask ing for a report Mrs. Trumbull in re ply to one of these questions said that only three members of the organisation received salaries.

In answerlnr objections of some of the counciimen to nts resolution on tne around that it was ridiculous for the city to expect a private society to make a report of matters pertaining to its own private business, Mr. Baker said he wanted the resolution , to go before the council, at any rate, and that he wanted the Associated Charities to re fuse the request, or not, as it might see fit.- He said he regarded the so ciety as a public institution and con sidered that the city had a right to inspect Its expense and salary accounts.

"Westerners have no idea of the overwhelming Bryan sentiment that ob tains in the states that cluster about New York," remarked a prominent Portland business man today, who has just returned from a trip to New York, Chicago and other eastern cities. "In New York city I found almost nothing but Bryan sentiment. Broadway is lined with Bryan boomers,' their being five boomers of the Democ ratio nominee to one of Taft. Even down on Wall street and on Lower Broadway in the big wholesale district, Bryan sentiment largely prevails. I can't see It any other way than that Bryan will sweep New York by a large majority, and New Jersey ks practically certain to go for tbe Democratic nominee. "In Chicago there is a regular Demo cratic groundswell, Bryan's name being on the lips of three fourths of the "eople one meets.' Even ths best-informed Republican 'politicians in Chi cago privately admit that Taft is doomed. "Out of five Washington newspaper men attacned to Republican neadquar ters m Chicago, four told me tha there was nothing to it but Bryan, that ne w outs' certainly carry unio, minoi and Indiana. "I returned ' to Portland, convinced beyond any doubt that Bryan will be the next president, and I am going about my business confident that no harm will come to the country because of Democratic success this year. Busi ness men in the east are not alarmed at the prospect of Bryan S election, and why should thev be?" The man who gave expression to the above is a Republican, who is going to vote, for Tart, and a business man of 20- years residence . In this city.
