Washington, May . Diplomacy
cored a distinct victory over the war
- spirit In the nation's capital tonight.
Aftsr a day of serious conferences
President Wilson and his closest ad
visers were convinced that the Mexi
can situation had materially Im
proved. The grave dangers of international
complications through the Tamplco
situation; of Huerta abandoning me
diation because of the activity of
Funston's men; of the arrival of a
munltUsn ship for Huerta at Vera
Croa or of Immediate attack on our
forces at Vera Cruz hive been avert
ed' for the present at least, the presi
dent believes.
Ho convinced of this fact were the
president and Secretary Bryan that
they spent a considerable portion of
the afternoon discussing the makeup
of the American board which will
safeguard the Interests of the United
(States at the mediation conferences
at Niagara Falls, commencing May
IS. As a result It was well nigh cer
tain tonight that the American rep
resentatives will be Frederick W. Ieh

ofthe Afternoon While he refused to

from a high official source that he
told the president that he would glad'

Mayor Baker, who was last night
considered a certainty, was eliminated
for awhile today, only to become later
so strong a possibility that his ap
pointment was believed certain.
60 far as Hughes and Lamar are
concerned, the president is known to
have decided that they are the only
members of the supreme court avail
able at present and whose health

(Special to The Journal.)
Baltimore, Md., May 9. Rallying
to the colons of Colonel Roosevelt,
la defense of his statement that he
had discovered a new river and region
lh South -America, Dr.- Frederick A.
Cook, erstwhile explorer, bitterly de
nounced the critics of the former
of the fishbone family." d.
velt was probably prompted by the
fact that both have felt the jiting of
criticism and skepticism. However.
Dr. Cook In his statement, shows
great faith in the statement of fear

follows:
"It is to be noted that the attacks
upon Roosevelt are made as usual
by that bund of scientific parasites
who seek the pie of other men's mak
ing, and they do It when the explorer
is not here to defend his work.
"Let Itoosevelt's critics have their
crooked spines and take to the wilder
ness, until then they stand convicted
of belonging to the wishbone family.

Pendleton, Or., May 9. Coming
strongly and enthusiastically to the
eupport of Dr. C. J. Smith, denouncing
vigprously the misrepresentations re

afternoon adopted resolutions strongly
Indorsing his personal character and
his record as an official, and advising
the voters who desire a man of high
moral principles, to led their support
to Dr. Smiths
Th0 meeting was the most emphatic
action taken by the. women of Pendle
ton since they were granted suffrage
The attendance was the largest since
the club was formed and an aggres
sive spirit was shown.
Many women were present who lived
here in 1898, when Dr. Smith was
mayor, and they testified to his aa
tlvlty at that time in curbing the sa
loons and. vice districts and In closing
gambling Joints. During the meeting
a message was read showing Governor
West's denunciation of the Oregonlan's
attacks on Dr. Smith and It, was round
ly appiauaea.
The women laid plans for getting" ut
a landslide vote for Dr. Smith, Fri

aoopted:
"Whereas, In his campaign for ths

Dr. C. J. Smith has taken an emnhatin
stand -for law enforcement, pledging
himself If elected, to take vigorous and
effective measures to compel obedi
ence to the laws against vice and for
tne protection or the home and fire
side, ana
Whereas this pronounced and
praiseworthy attitude on the part of
Dr. Smith has caused his opponent
to seex to injure his candidacy by mis
representing his past view and poli
cies upon tnis subject, and
Whereas, these attacks upon him
have been unjust and misleading be
cause during nis; more than 20 years
residence in Pendleton, Dr. Smith was
at all times a friend and champion of
law observance; .was opposed to the
open town' policy; was at no: time
aligned with the vice element;- was
ever Identified with influences work
ing for moral and educational advance
ment, and was so regarded generally
by the people of the community;
Candidacy Zs Commended.
""Therefore, we, the women of Pen
dleton, composing the 'Smith for Gov
ernor club,' resent the efforts to dis
credit the candidacy of Dr. Smith
through gross misrepresentation and
particularly by the false Information
as to his attitude while a citlsen of
Pendleton. We who have known him
well for many years have unbounded
faith in his clean principles. In his
ability and In the genuineness of his
convictions and know that he will rig
idly observe all pledges if elected to
the high office of governor of Ore
gon.
"Therefore we cordially commend
the candidacy of Dr. Smith to the peo
ple of Oregon and we particularly urge
his candidacy upon all who desire by
their ballots to support men who
