OREGONIAN SEEKING TO FOIST ON VOTERS OWN SECRET SLATE C 'on tinned from Page One.) and he V lan to "keep off the heeded ttifp warning. j, Meantime the Oregonlan was busily T i 'i i V v 1 ft i A i'f Free 1 repairing fences and manufacturing support for Booth. Negotiations were opened with the Portland Daily News in order to induce it to refrain from attacking Booth. George Kelly, Mr. Booth's partner, helped to engineer the deal by bringing ex-Mayor Rush light to the Oregonlan office, and Rushlight undertook to. fix the News. Some friction arose when Rushlight declared his Intention of running for the Republican primary nomination for sheriff, and that as a part of the deal he must have the support of the Ore gonlan. Even the Oregonian could not accept this condition, as it had fought Rushlight with extreme bitterness only a few months previous, when he was seeking reelection as mayor. Terms were finally agreed upon, how ever, the editor of the Oregonian and the (then) editor of the Daily News Joining in the pact. Agreement in Detail. It was agreed: 1. That the News should refrain frcm attacks upon Booth. 2. That Rushlight should put for ward a candidate of his own choosing for the Republican nomination for sheriff, both papers being pledged to support him. 3. That the Oregonian would aid the News in its one great political am bition, the defeat of Sheriff Torn Word. The bargain has been kept. Rusb iight put Tom Hurlburt into ihe shrievalty fight only a few days be tore the primary and with the aid of the Kelly-Rushlight-Booth combina tion, and the two conspiring news papers, he won the nomination from Archie Leonard. Rushlight paid all Hurlburt's campaign expenses. The News has carefully refrained from at tack upon Booth, despite the fact that he has been denounced by organized labor and despite the damaging rev elations ofr the crooked methods by wlik-h thq Booth-Kelly company go! its timber. So much for the first place on the Oregonian slate. Booth Wanted Witnycombe. When the question arose before the primaries as to the selection of a can didate' for governor, difficulties arose. With eight Republican candidates in the field, "It proved impossible for the Oregonian to give open support to any one or them without arousing re sentments which might bring danger ous reprisals. But what could not be done openly could be accomplished by stealth. Booth wanted Withycombe as his running mate, believing that this would help him with the farmers. Accordingly, during the last three days of the primary campaign the word was passed to Booth workers in various localities that "Withycomba was tho man." Lane county gave him a big vote and he won the nomination for governor. Dr. Withycombe began a vigorous speaking campaign, dis cussing freely the issues in which the voters are interested. All the state knows what happened then. The Oregonian and State Chairman Moores corralled the surprised and too candid candidate, sternly pointed out the error of discussing campaign is sues and sent him forth once more, tightly corked. He had been made to understand that under no circum stances would he be permitted to so conduct his campaign as to endanger the success of the Oregonian's plans. But this did not comprise the whole program: The Oregonian proposed to name also the congressman from this district C. N. Mc Arthur, ex-member of the legislature and speaker of the house at the last session, was put for ward boldly labelled as the Oregonian's choice. McArthur was at one time in the employ of the Oregonlan. For a dozen years he has been active in poli tics, a persistent office seeker and always identified with the machine. Was Tool of Big1 Interests. In the legislature he was the tool of the big interests and the foe of the direct primary and Statement One. McArthur voted . and spoke for the no torious Bean-Brooke bill which made it a crime for a legislative candidate to promise to. vote for the people's choice for United States senator. During the land fraud prosecutions in 1905 Mc Arthur was in the employ of Detective W. J. Burns and assisted in filling the jury box with "convicters." In mak ing up the slate, McArthur was chosen to represent the Oregonian in congress. Would Control legislature. Finally, the Oregonian decided that It must control the next legislature. To this end, it' was necessary to dic tate the representation from Multno mah county. There were many legis lative candidates in the field, but they did not wear the Oregonian brand. New candidates must be found. Several secret conferences were held. Jack' Matthews, ex-boss, is said to have been called into the consultation. The Ore gonian finally announced its ticket, as follows: S. B. Cobb, John Gill. Oscar W. Korne, S. B. Huston, Louis Kuehn, D. C. Lewis, E. V. Littlefield, Ben Selling, Andrew C. Smith, Plowden Stott, Lloyd J. WTent worth. Prienda Protest Bitterly. There was much bitter protest from friends of candidates who were in the field before the Oregonian slate was announced, but they were without or ganization, fte primary election was close at hand and the slate went through. "With an obedient governor and legis lature the Oregonian will be able to control the proceedings at the state capital next winter. Then will come the long sought opportunity to "pot the knife" to the people's laws. In the palmiest days of boss rule in Oregon there was never a bolder at tempt to force a slate on the voters than is being made by the Oregonian in this campaign. Venezuela soon will open its first large paper factory, in which all the machinery will be electrical. Seattle Police in Pursuit of Thief Shots Have Already Been Exchanged, and Zt Za BelieTed There Will Be Further Trouble Ere Long. Seattle, Wash., Oct, 15. A posse of police and detectives is closing in on the bandit, who yesterday afternoon held up and robbed P. I. Suita, of the United States Automobile Supplies company, near South Park, a Seattle suburb. The robber took Mr. Suita's watch and a small sutn of money. After spending the night in the woods, the bandit appeared jixst after daybreak at a considerable distance from the police camp, established last night at the Lake Burien station of the municipal carline. The police opened fire, and the high way man, running low, disappeared again into the woods without returning the fire. It is known he is armed. The police have the bandit surround ed in his hiding place, and are creep ing up on him, using trees and stumps as protection against possible bullets.
