LOSING HEAVILY

. (Salem Bureau ef The Journal k
Salem, Or., Oct. 24. Secretary of
State Ben W, Olcott estimates the total
registration will be In excess of 160,000
voters. This will exceed all former reg.
Istratlons, and will surpass estimates
based on the registration before the
primaries..
Before the April primaries the total
registration was 131,680, divided as fol
lok: Republican,- ts,o?0f - Democrat,
28,417; Prohibitionists, l,6i; Social
ists, 4918; Independents, 2)70, and. the
remaining fed scattering.
Final reports of registration since the
primaries have been received from 15
counties, and these show considerable
falling off in the ratio of Republican
votes. For Instance, In Benton county
U per cent of the registration before the
primaries was Republican. Of the reg
istration since the primaries only 44
per cent is Republican, Of the entire
registration 66 per cent Is Republican.
In Clackamas county 72 per fcen"t of
the registration before the primaries
was Republican, and of the registration
since. 53 per cent Is Republican. Of
the total registration 68 per cent Is Re
publican. For Lane county the Republican regis,
tratlon before the primaries was (2 per
cent, since the primaries 46 per cent,
and of the total registration it Is 60 per
cent.
This change in ratio runs through the
registration in practically all counties
that have reported.
Other counties have made their final
reports, aa follows: Columbia, total
registration, 2219; Sherman, 788; Grant,
1645; Lincoln, 1128; Klamath, 2641;
Morrow, 982; Benton, 2461; Gilliam,
748; Umatilla, 4623.
Umatilla Can Cast 4501 Vote.
- (flnerlitl to The Journal..
Pendleton, Or., Oct. 24. Umatilla
county Contains 1808 more Republicans
than Democrats, according to the fig
ures on the total registration for the
fall election. However, In view of the
fact that a majority of the voters regis
tered before the primaries when no third
party existed, it Is Impossible to leU
just how much this majority will be cut
down by the desertion from the parent
party to the offspring. Of those who
have registered eince the primaries but
seven claim allegiance to the Roosevelt
party. The total number of registered
voters in the county is 4691, of whom

Woman's suffrage, the, brotherhood of
man and universal peace, prohibition
and the federation of churches, were
advocated by Dr. Charles M. Sheldon of
Topeka, Kansas, In an address given
last night at the Flrat Methodist Epis
copal church. The meeting was held
wider the auspices of the Portland
Woman's club. Mrs. Sarah A. Evans In
troduced. 'IT. W. Stone, general secretary
of th Portland V. M. C A., a chair
man.
Doctor Sheldon pleaded the cause ef
woman's suffrage on the ground that
women are as human as men, and there
fore as much entitled to the benefits of
humanity aa are men. Only the sel
fishness of men, he said, prevented unW
versal suffrage to women. He argued
that women are aa efficient and compe
tent mentally as men, and that, as the
mothers of the rising generations, they
are beat equipped to provide for the
welfare and future of the young.
Kansas la second in ths list of states
in the matter of per capita wealth of
Its citlsens, and first in Its per capita
of home owners, with but one pauper to
every 12000 citizens, said Dr. Bheldon.
and he attributed this fact to the pro
hibition law, which has been in effect
In that state for 82 years.
The speaker argued that If the
churches united in a general federation
they could more effectively combat vice
in all forms. He gave It a hi Belief
that marriages shouN not be allowed
unless both man and woman could show
a perfectly clean bill of health. He ad
vocated instruction on the sex question
in the home and in the publlo schools.
Only the brotherhood of man. Doctor
Sheldon said, can bring about universal
peace.

One-ot the .proposed -.charter. - amend

Portland at the special .election a week
from next Saturday provides ?or a bond
issue of $200,000 to be used solely In
the purchase of a site for a publlo audi

will be known as section 426. Tho

construction of -the auditorium, but after
many' months of debate the public audi
torium commission created heretofore
when the 3600,000 bond issue was au
thorised came to the conclusion that an
other bond Issue would be necessary.
The principal argument advanced by
the auditorium commission In support nt
the additional bond issue of 200,000 is
that the city docs not now own' any
available site of sufficient size On which
to erect an auditorium structure for
present and future needs.
Plans for a building have already
been acoepted by the commission, which
is unanimous in the opinion that it will
take the entire 3600,000 already voted to
provide for the erection of th edifice.
The plans were 'selected by a Jury
chosen In the manner provided by the
charter amendment already adopted. The
rbommlsslon lias the power to modify
these plans, but It has deemed It best
not to make changes that would have to
be made If no additional funds are pro
vided for the purchase of a site,
Position of Committee.
The position taken1 by the commission
has been clearly stated by Hugh Hume,
one of Its members, in the following
words:
"The plans we have selectod call for
a bulIuMng large enough to accommodate
the tvery largest convention that Port
land may have. Besides using th
structure for convention purposes it is
proposed to utilise the auditorium
proper for the giving of free concerts
on Sunday afternoons for the benefit of
the residents of the city.
"Underneath the- auditorium it is
planned to have space enough In which
to hold horse shows, rose shows, auto
mobile shows, pure food and other In
structive and entertaining exhibitions.
"Permanent quarters for the Oregon
Historical society are also contemplated
and indeed have been provided for in
th charter amendment authorizing the
construction of the auditorium. A large
pipe organ will be one of the dis
tinctive features of the building, which
will also provide locations for art and
muslo studios.
"It is ' proposed to make the audi
torium self sustaining, but we do not
believe this can be achieved If a small
building is erected on a small tract. The
publlo market block was originally con
sidered as a site, but that affords a
space of only 200 feet by 200 feet and
we believe that a suitable building can
not be put on a tract of lesser area than
about 200 by 280 feet
Bom Objections Had.
"Th commission Jias Jeen criticised
for what some term Its apathy in select
ing a site and going ahead with the con
struction of the building. It has also
been stated that the plans we have ac
cepted are too expensive, that they sac
rifice space to ornament, and that they
do no arrange for proper acoustics.
"A to the first criticism I can only
say, on behalf of the commission, that
we hate acted wit h all the -dispatch pos
sible. W determined that the market
block waa not large enough. The Zeig-
!er amendment prevented us acquiring
more ground by having portions of the
publlo streets abutting on the market
block Vacated. We then had a charter
amendment prepared to give us the
power to have the necessary streets va
cated. This amendment is to be sub
mitted to the votere at th coming spe
cial election, the first one at which It
could be submitted. But, If the amend
ment should be adopted the additional
ground we would be able to acquire from
the city would not, in our opinion, he
sufficient
"Criticism of the architectural fea
tures contemplated In the proposed
plans does not fall to the oommleslon
because the plans were selected by a
jury composed of some of the ablest
architects of the American Architectural
association. Willis Polk, the noted de
signer of San Francisco, was the chair
man of this jury. Mr. Polk has a na
tion wide reputation and as evidence of
what is thought of his ability I need
only call attention to the fact that he
has been placed a the head Of a com
mittee that will have charge of the
buildings to be erected for the Panama
Paclflo exposition at San Francisco,

that we should build a barn. On the
contrary, we maintain that the building

a building constructed on beautiful linos
they do not make necessary any skimp

10,000 persons. ', ;' '
"In conclusion, I will say that If We
find It possible to utilize the market
block for the purpose only a small part
of the additional $200,000 will have to
be expended. And In case th market
block Is not used we want enough money
to purchase an adequate site elsewhere

They say that splendid auditoriums
have been built in Denver, -BU Paul; MH-A

or around $600,000. The 6t Paul audi
torium, to which special reference ' is

reply of the advocates Of the extra bond
Issue to this is that th sit of the St.
Paul building Is much larger than any
that can be procured in Portland On a
single block, for the reason 'that; the
blocks In St Paul are larger than the
200 by 200 blocks here.
Opponents of the measure say that an
adequate site can be condemned and
purchased on the east aid for $100,000
and that $600,000 would still b avail
able for the construction of th build

nearer to the center of population than
any site that , can be selected on tha
west side of th river.
While not committing themselves as
to Whether they believe a suitable site
could be purchased on the east side of
the river, the auditorium commission

building and that an additional appro

the site is ultimately located.
