for becoming a candidate. "Oregon is
suffering in a business way from the
uncertainty of a staple and business
like legislature department If I am
fortunate enough to ba one of the IS

unnecessary litigation having courts

favor the legislature meddling with

the state senate. If nominated and
electeJ, I will support stfen measures
as will benefit the state of Oregon;

uncalled for appropriations; will fa
vor the repeal of obsolete laws; fewer
laws but better enforcement; strict
economy in public matters; more man
ufactories; good roads; equal and Just
laws for all classes; will oppose any
measure tending to divert a state fund
into another channel than that for
which it was created. The interests
of the people will at all times be paramount."

London, May 2. (U. P.) All rebels
who bore arms in the Dublin revolt
will be brought to England for trial,
it was announced today. Suspects and
Sinn Fein sympathizers who did not
openly take up arms against the gov
ernment will be tried in the Irish
courts.
Several hundred prisoners have al

liable to trial by courtmartlal, and
may be executed if convicted. The
trials will probably be postponed until
the government disposes of the case
of Sir Roger Casement, whom the Ger
mans sent to head the Irish rebellion.
He is a prisoner in the Tower of Lon

probable fate of Countess Marklevicz,
who surrendered with her force of 100

tlve of the character of Germany's
reply until tha official communication
ia received in "Washington. It was
stated, however, that nothing baa oc
curred materially to change tbe situ
ation alnce Wednesday.
WASHINGTON EXPECTS
NOTE WILL BE ON ITS
WAY BEFORE TONIGHT
Washington, May 2. (U. P.) Offi
cial Washington is today awaiting the
kaiser's reply to the American subma
rine demands. Am a result of Ambas
sador Gerard's delay in returning to
Berlin from the emperor's field head
quarters, the dispatch expected from
ths American envoy yesterday was not
looked for until tomorrow morning.
In the meantime there is no official
light on Germany's proposed action
Unofficial dispatches from Berlin said
the second draft of the reply was com
pleted. By all accounts, the note
should be en route to Washington to
night or tomorrow.
The fact that the conference between
Gerard and the kaiser was more pro
longed than at first planned wag taken
as a hopeful indication.
United Press dispatches from Berlin
today renewed the optimism which was
also felt In administration circles. Tha
general belief waa that Germany would
yield and promise to cease its "present
methods of submarine warfare," but
whether this would clear up all diffi
culties immediately, or whether the re
ply would concede the president's de
mands preparatory to further discus
sion of the permanency of its acqules
cense, ' official refused to express an
oplnion. There was much discussion of Presi
dent Wilson's speech of yesterday be
fore the Navy league women, in which
he voiced a warning that no nation can
tamper with the honor and integrity
of ths United States. This was taken
as a plain indication that he will not
back down in his demands on Germany.

Tou have heard. a treat deal about
the hyphen. I for one have never Leen
deceived. Tho number of persons of
really divided allegienoe In this coun
try is very small and had I been ta
some other country I would, for one
resent the representationa which have
been made by those who were not thv
spokesmen of those for whom they pre
tended to speak in suggesting a divided
allegtence. I bav never had th slight
est doubt-of what would happaa when
America called upon those of her cltl
sens born in ether countries to come
to tha support of tha flag. Why, they
will come with-cheers, they will come
with a momentum which will make us
realize that America has once mors
been cried awake out of every sort of
distemper and dream and distraction,
and that any man who dares tamper
with th sptrlt'of America will be cast
out of the confidence of a great nation
upon the lnntant.

Applauded Whan Se Bays America Will
Sally, If Possible, to Assert Stand,
arda of Justice and Ubsrty.
Washington, May 2. President Wil
son warned alt nations they cannot
tamper with the honor and Integrity of
the United States, in a speech opening
the National Service Ephool prepared
ness camp for women 'here yesterday.
Praises Volunteer Service.
The address follows:
"It is with unaffected pleasure that
I come to greet you as you have as
sembled for the Interesting things you
are going to do. I have always felt
that there was much more inspira
tion in things that were voluntarily
done than in things that were done
under official direction and by official
summons. You have volunteered to
come together without official sugges
tion in order to study some things,
which, while they are characteristic of
the sort of comfort and assistance
which women have been accustomed
to offer, are nevertheless In this in
stance associated with a very great
national conception and duty.
Civilization Is Threatened.
"We, of course, are living in the
presence oft conditions which we cannot
yet assess, because they are unprece
dented. The world never witnessed
such a war as is now convulsing al
most every part of the world except
thia part, which we particularly love
and would seek to safeguard, and the
very foundations of the ordinary Ufa
of nations have been disturbed, so
deeply disturbed that no man can pre
dict what the final settlement will be.
And if this war has done nothing else,
it has at least done this: It has made
America aware of danger which most
of us had deemed unreal and has made
us aware that the danger of our own
time is nothing less than the unsettle
ment of the foundations of civilization.
Civilization Bests on Peace.
"Civilization does not rest upon war.
It rests upon peace. It rests upon
those things which men achieve by co- j
operation and mutual interest in one
another. It does not flourish in the
soil of hostility and antagonism, and a
world war is a war in the presence of
which civilization holds its breath and
wonders if it will Itself survive. Aa
we see these great issues Joined, we
on this side of the water are done this
service: We are reminded of our spir
itual relation, not only to this great
struggle, but particularly to this great
nation of which we constitute parts,
and our spiritual relation to the rest
of the world Is determined by our spir
itual relation to America.
Great Awakening Felt.
"This government was established In
order that Justice and liberty might be
long to every man whom our institu
tions could touch, and not only that
Justice and liberty should belong to
America, but that so far as America
waa concerned they should be extended
to mankind everywhere. So the "Inspi
ration of serving America is a very
profound inspiration.
"Have you not thought what anight
be the outcome of this great struggle,
so far as the nations already engaged
are concerned? Can you not imagine
the great awakening that has come to
a country like France for example
how much more Intensely every
Frenchman and every German feels the
national compulsion than he ever felt
it before? How much more he feels
himself, not an individual, but a frac
tion of the great whole? How much
more his blood springs to the challenge
of patriotic suggestion?
Patriotism Is Xevived.
"He is not fighting for his own life.
He Is sacrificing his own life, or will
ing to sacrifice it, in order that a
greater life than his might persist the
life of his nation. So inj America we
are getting already the indirect benefit
of that suggestion. We are beginning
to realize how a nation is a unit, and
that any individual of it who does not
feel the impulse of the whole does not
belong to It.
We Are Americans First.
"We have heard a great deal about
divided allegience in this country, but
before w discuss divided allegience in
its political aspect we ought to let our
thoughts run back to what were per
haps our divided allegiences In respect
to our relations to each other. America
had been brought to such a point of
diversification of interest, of occupa
tion, of objects sought, that she was in
danger of losing the consciousness of
her singleness and solidarity. We have
all been reminded with an emphasis,
for which I for one thank God, that
we are first of all Americans, and only
after that at liberty to seek our indi
vidual Interest. And those of our fe-

' The new method of treating con
stipation with pure paraffine wan
first endorsed by the medical pro
fession and is now being universal
ly used with great success In consti

Women, always the worst suffer

strongest advocates of tho remedy
called Ameroil, which consists simply
of a highly refined petroleum, or

which necessarily follows as the re

Ameroil Is colorless, odorless and
tasteless, pleasant to take; it does
not nauseate tbe most sensitive
stomach. There are no disagreeable
after effects no pain nor distress.
Ameroil is sold at all Owl drug
