U ; 1 V. THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND. THURSDAY EVENING. NOVEMBER 12,': 1908. Four Prominently Mentioned For President Taffs Cabinet t I 4 1 i ""X .A'.f.-.v .-.X' i "- V The state department building t i W8hingtont together with four men who are possible candidates for occupation March . 4 namely reading from left to right, Eliha Root, Theodore E. Uurton, Henry Cabot Lodge and David Jayne Hill. - ' . 1 ' , - Washington, i. C. Nov. ,12. To fill his portfolio of state will probably be one of the most delicate undertaking which President-elect William H. Tstt has upon his bands. - The secretary of mate Is thedeader of the cabinet. He ! only two places removed from the presidency In " Importance and- Inheri tance. He Is the guardian of American International honor. With American ta-terests- expanding and developing throughout the world, he become the messenger and protector of American expansion, and he is the great American governmental missionary of the world. There Is no vouchsafing the idea that the present Incumbent in the portfolio of state eould succeed himself if he de sired. Klihu Root is one of the biggest men the United States has ever devel oped. He la one of the most -successful state Becretsrlesr : which has ever pre sided over the state department, Mr. Taft would, like nothing better than he should remain in charge. But Mr. Boot Is not too nigged, nor physically strong. .Ha will undoubtedly desire to lay down lvls burdens when the administration of Jresident. Roosevelt ends. In such an event there are three names which rise to the lips of cabinet prophets. Henry Cabot Iiodge of Massachusetts would be probably' the logical second rholce for the position. . No one will deny 'nis perfect qualifications for the Place. He 18 a scjioiar ana jl aiciumm hi nd a warm adviser of Taft. Ha pre- Irii.rt nver the Taft convention at C cngo. But lidge la in the United (states senate from' Massachusetts with a. life mortgagej and It is doubtful whether he would prefer the temporary honor of the cabinet1 to the permanent toga of the senate. - Immediately, then. Congressman Theodore E. Burton ; of Cleveland be comes an Insistent possibility. Con gTessmanBurton is another man of di plomat Ic Q-t e mperam en t and perect qualifications, ' : He, too. Is a Taft ad viser. He nominated Taft in the Chi cago, convention. He hail from Taft's home state,' which will expect to con tribute 5 liberally 1 to the new cabinet. He Is a logical bosslblllty from every viewpoint nd there is no good reason why he should not accept the Job if of fered him. t It would, therefore, seem quite probable that - the next secretary of atate will either be Theodore K. Burton of. Ohio, or the man who looms large upon the diplomatic horiron as worthy of the Job Dr. David Jayne Hill, Amer ican ambassador to Germany. It has frequently been hinted that the resi dence of Dr. Hill at Berlin was never Intended to be permanent. If not in tended to be permanent there can be no question but that the plan has been to bring Hill Into the official family of the nation's leader. He completes the quartet of possibilities for the portfolio of state, and it Is a safe bet that the coming occupant has been named. ATTELL AND WELSH , PREPARE FOR FIGHT (thdtea Prws Leases Wlra.1 Los Angeles. CaU, Nov. 18. Abe Attell and Freddie Welsh will start active work today for their scheduled 16-round battle before the Jeffries, Athletio club Thanksgiving eve. .-. Monte Attell. brother of th feather weight champion, arrived In Ios An geles weanesaay ana went imuieui&wijr to Jack Doyle's camp at Vernon, where Abe is to train. . Freddie Welsh has decided to work at the Venice Athletio club; Freddie has trained for two fights at the seaside resort and haa an idea that the weather til ere agrees with him. Jim Jeffries and his partner, Jack Klpoer, have opened a big betting es tablishment to be known as the Jef fries Commission house Sammy Kor- fier, the book-maker, has been placed n charge. Jeffries will conduct the nlnr at hla Rnrintr ittreet resort. Korper reported Wednesday that bet ting on the Attell-Welsh fight had opened at evens.

Next on the pugilistic program comes the Wolgast-"Bubblea" Robinson ten rounder scheduled for Tom McCarey's Naud Junction barn tomorrow night. Wolarast has been made the subject of considerable criticism since his arrival here owing to a withdrawal from the Attell match. The little fellow is more than anxious to knock Robinson out and the go should be a "hummer." Tacoma's Golfers. Tacoma. Wash.. Nov. 12.

GATE'S BOND PRESENT FROM OLD COLLEGE:: CHUMS IS FOLLOWED BY BILL An express package much Ilk those common about Christina time drift ed into th Federal building the other day. It was addressed: "Mr. C J.- Reeve, United States district -attorney." It was quite evident that on the inside was a gift for someone. On the outside were the names Burch & Mur phy or tjnicago. ,i , The Initials and everything considered An echo of the Hawthorne estate's troubles with W. B, Cats waa heard in the circuit court this morning, when suit was died by Sheriff George I. Han cock of Washington county against Gustave Frlewald and J. A. Imbrie to enforce payment of a redelivery bond given by the defendants to Hancock's predecessor In office, John W. Connell. Last year Mrs. Rachel U Hawthorne sued W. B. Cate in Washington county and filed a garnishment for $3,760. The defendants gave a redelivery bond for the amount involved, agreeing to se cure the sheriff against Iohs if the case went against the defendant. In March of the presimt year the circuit court in Washington county gave judgment , for Mrs. Hawthorne for- $1,600. Sheriff Hancock says only $539.80 has been paid on. the bond, leaving $2,882 due. it was finally agreed that the present belonged to C J. Reed, United States marshal, owinv to the similarity of names. So the bundle was unpacked. The cutest little brdjise bust of Presi dent Roosevelt, that one ever saw was revealed. Mr. Reed waa sure that the gift waa for him. There was no ques tion about it. In fact Didn't he know Buroh & Murphy well? Hadn't he gone to school with them year and years ago? Hadn't he been looking for them to aena him soraeimng nice iui long time? Sure he had. While John McCourt Is district at torney, he didn't have much of a claim for the on the bronse place because be couldn t figure out any, way how the name "Reeve" might hava been mistaken for that of "MoCourU" And as Mr. Reed and Mesr Burch & Murphy, th send ers, were old college chums, he let it go at that. - - " - , Yesterday Mr. Reed wrote a long let ter to the Chicago men telling them of hi, appreciation of th remembrance they had bestowed upon him. This morning a bill cam bronse bust. It was i for $6. , ' - , "Th perfidy of Burch and th' In gratitude of Murphv." Mr. Reed , an nounced at once. "Ail the old college tradition of loyalty and all that sort of thing have been ,busted been shattered beyond recall." ' An effort was made to pa th bust and th bill along to Mr. McCourt. Mr. McCourt laughed. He said there mr.a nnthlnor Aanm. Now the marsha1 la endeavoring to overtake that letter of thanks. on Its way to uurcn murpn somewhere between Portland and cago. , 1 BIG POLICEMAN FOILS SMALL -BOY'S ATTEMPT TO TURN HOBO An ax, a chicken dead "'cause I car ried it so long"r and two Jar of fruit With that equipment WiUle Meyer, aged 11 and with a marveloualy dirty face, started to see the world last night.
