strongly for 'Governor Eugene N. tons,
of Massachusetts,, as a presidential poa
! sibllity and declaring that the ' political
backing of Governor Judson Harmon, of
Ohio, is shifting to Congressman Oscar
Underwood, of Albama. whose nomlna
tion as Democ ratio candidate would be
unfortunate for the south. William J.
Bryan urges today In the Commoner the
endorsement of Foss by the Democratic
party as its standard' bearer. '
tThe reelection of Foss as governor
of Massachusetts on a. radical platform
advances' his Stock' In the presidential
market.'.' declares Bryan In his editorial
If ;""'yott"1are'"a.' '-progressive Democrat,
read the Massachusetts platform and
the' election returns and then, ask your
self 'What's the matter, with Fossr
- "The Commoner takes pleasure ' Jn
calling attention to the fact that Foss
is not only one of the men to be con-
lalderedbut the further fact that his
claims i upon the . party - have been
strengthened by the endorsement given
him by the voters of Maseachusetts.'-
After stating that Harmon's strength
Is drifting to Underwood, the Common
er adds: I - - i
. "Underwood's nomination woulel oe
unfortunate for the south, for . his de
feat would be wrongfully charged ' to
his ' location". Instead of being attrib
uted, it it should be, to the fact that he
is noJn harmony with the pwjgresslve
spirit of the day." ;
PARKER TO BOOST FOR
PORTLAND ON HIS TRIP
Colonel and Mrs. Frank J. Parker
left Portland last evening on the
Shasta Limited for San Fran-
(-cisco. gan Diego and probably, Gold-
field and Tonopah. Colonel Parker has
mining Interests 'in the latter places.
While gone. Colonel Parker will make
a specialty of advertising the coming
Rose Festival and Elks grand lodge
reunion next summer. He expects to
cross the .boundary Into Mexlvo before
his return' and take a trip across ..the
Isthmus - on the Tehuantepeo railroad
and then on south to Panama to Inspect
the Panama canal.
Colonel Parker has been backing the
Pacific Northwest for more than 45
years. He was among the first to boost
the country and attempt to Influence
people to move to this section to Settle.
People laughed at him' and told him he
was doing wrong. He did. not. quit,
however, and has seen the day "whan
this advertising is carried on to an ex
tent then beyond any dreams.

Colonel Grimes, who acquired his title
when he was United States marshal for
is doing a lltUe building on his
own account. The colonel and W. S.
cnanaier own the Hotel Chandler at

gard as some hotel for a place the else
of Marshfleld. In fact, it is So, popu
lar and Marshfield is growing no fast
that Mr. Chandler and Coldnel Grimes
are going to put up a five story fire-

Another five story building is to so
up on the same block adjoining ' the
hotel, and Chandler and the colonel' are

plant that will care for all their build
ings on tne block.
" Better Harbor riaaaea.
- Colonel Grimes is also Interested in
getting better harbor facilities for Coos
Bay. When, he passed out the other
day there was 26 feet on the bar, but
he and the rest of Coos Bay people
want a 1000 foot channel and inth
eet. They say an aDDronriation
Iflfl.OOO would Insure It ' The pres
rth Jetty has to be rebuilt, where
washed away, and extended about
or 1600 feet, while a loo tnnt

There's another Interesting thing the
colonel csn tell abouts the handy
way in which the O. A. Smith Lumber
company is using electricity. Recently
t electrical cranes have been installed on
the docks That load. 2,000,000 feet of
lumuer on xne an smith la 11 hours.
That has the world beaten. Another is
tne supplanting oi the -noisy and famll-

, them highly successful so much mn i
is arranging to carry power So and it

The - electrical i engines are lighter,
quicker and less expensive to operate,
