These men are endeavoring- to make tomorrow's celebra tion the greatest that Portland has ever seen on Flag day. Other organizations observing the day are the Woodmen of the World and the Sons of the American Revo lution, M'COMBS WIRES AN INVITATION TO PROGRESSIVES (Continued From Page One) contain much to appeal tOj Progres- Will Wot Comment. He refused to comment on reports that some of the conservative Demo cratlc leaders had attempted to check the efforts to win over the Progres sives. A national child labor law and rec ognition of the woman suffrage move ment may be two of the leading planks in the Democratic platform. The child labor plank Is to be the principal feature,. of the "social wel fare" clauses. Those urging this plank desire it to show Progressives that the Democratic party is willlnx to abandon its historic states rights stand on this subject. A canvass of strength. Progressive Democrats claim. has shown that southern Democrats here have not sufficient strength to block this plank. Flan Is Popular. Kffort to enter -Into harmonious re lations with the Progressive party meets general approval of Democratic leaders and the lnitators of the plan are at work lining up support. Many big Democrats as fast as they reached the city were enlisted in the mcvement. Secretary of Agriculture Houston was one of these. The party has been working out many of the Ideas advanced by the Progressives four years ago, he said, and there is room for the Progressives in the party. Homer S. Cummings. the national committee's choice tor national chair, man. Joined Chairman McCombs in ad vocacy of immediate, definite action and the extending of an invitation to the Progressives to offer suggestions before the platform is completed. Definite Action Vrf ed, XJrey Woodson, Kentucky national committeeman. Joined the forces urg ing definite action. "Why not?" said Woodson. "It's a long call from the Republican plat form, adopted at Chicago, to what the Progressives stand for. We come nearer giving them what they want. Most Bull Moosers would be gooi Democrats merely by changing their name. "We ought to get the rank and file J of the Progressive party," said Cato Sells, Texas committeeman. W. W. Marshall, Iowa national com mitteeman, said he wanted to see plans worked out for taking over the Pro gressives. Opposition to the plan has rrown out of the fear that it would bring a big radical element into the party that would be hard to handle, so the would be kidnapers charged today. They say the fear Is unfounded. Definite Under standing' Urged. "If the Democratic party organira tion ls-to be more important than the party membership," said one of the leaders, "then we haven't anything to offer the Progressives, that's true. That is why they left the Republican party and that is why their new party has been wrecked. If we're going to invite them In, let's not do it under fruse pretenses. Let's bring them in on a real understanding of wnat we propose to do. The first step In that direction would be to have aa many of them as possible here while we work out our own platform and program." Opposition to the combination pro gram was voiced today by Senator Hardwlck of Georgia, one of the con eervative group in the senate. "If we win we'll win as Democrats cn historic Democratic Issues," said Hardwlck. "The so-called Progress ives, I believe, will g?t checked uo short if they attempt to override states rights on child labor and simi lar measures." TENTATIVE DRAFT OF DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM IS 0. K.'D BY WILSON St. Louis. June 13. (U. P.) Secre tary of War Baker will arrive in St. Louis tonight with the draft of the Democratic platform approved by Pres ident .Wilson himself. Jn fact the chief executive Is credited personally with writing a number of planks. He has talked the whole document over with Senator Stone of Missouri The latter has the principal direction of putting together of the words and pledges on which Democracy -will make the race this year. The great bulk of the delegates were arriving today. Lobbies of the Jeffer son and Planters' hotels show more or the convention spirit but up to this moraing exactly one band has blared its way down town. The delegates put in , their time alternately aoagmg ana ing to woman suffrage workers; sev eral score of movie operators are on the lob from dawn to dark and several hundred newspaper men are In town. est. Louia nas aone Dmu pruuu , convention weather. The days have lust been warm enough to make sum mer clothing comfortable, but not en-, ervtiiiiig. William Jennings Bryan arrivea to day. Twenty years ago the silver tongued orator came to the 1896 Democratic convention as a reporter, thrilled De mocracy with eloquence and departed au its presidential candidate. In the 191 convention Mr. Bryan will be a reporter Just as he was 20 years a an alTernae. Mr. Bryan .will prob-' ably add ddress the convention, but he Is ret expected to take a prominent part in the proceedings of the convention. The convention will adjourn early on Wednesday, probably immediately after the keynote speech of ex-Gov ernor Glynn, out of respect to the memory of the late Thomas J. Pence, secretary of the Democratic national committee. One other thing which led to the decision to cut short the session was the discovery that if the usual program were adhered to, three out of four of the big speeches of the con vention would come on the same day. Victory for Roosevelt. St. Paul, Minn., June 13. (I. N. S.) Minnesota Progressives are likely to support Hughes. C. W. Halbert, state chairman, said today: "It is to be borne in mind that the .1otlnn rf Mr Ttuchpa bv thn Tfcft- publlcans is not a victory for the re- ( actionarles, but really a victory for f Mr. Roosevelt, who put them in a 1 position where they had to nominate such a man.

Two Men Dynamite Power Wire Towers San Francisco, June 13. (P. N. S.) Two men are being sought by de- tectives today as the dynamiters who blew up three big steel towers of the Sierra & San Francisco Power com pany, carrying power from the moun tains for the use of the united Kail roads. The towers, located on the top of San Bruno mountain in . San Mateo county, were wrecked early Sunday. Three distinct explosions were felt by residents for miles around, the first at 3:34 a. m. and the last at 4:10 a. n. Mystery surrounds the dynamiting, j The two men sought by the police were seen walking near the towers carrying a large, heavy valise. This is sup posed to have contained the explosive used in wrecking the towers. Local police and United Railroad detectives are cooperating in an effort to find the men and unravel the mys tery surrounding the affair. The damage now is being repaired rapidly. Immediately after the explo sion, the steam auxiliary plant of the -United Railroads was put into use and the car service was not interrupted. Fulton Park's Tots Have Own Festival A young friend of The Journal who has the instinct of a news reporter, sends in the following account of the Fulton Park rose show: The small girls of the Fulton Park school had a little floral parade all of their own last Saturday and had their doll buggies as well as them selves decorated and marched around the block and school house with a little band in the line. Genevieve Dorner. aged 6, was the queen, and her little sisters, 5 and 4 years old, were the attendants.

In this report reference is also made to tne. severe criticism which eminent American Jurists and public men have received in other years, when partisan- ship has been rampant. One of the naraest-hlttlng observations of the re- port is that dealing with Moorfleld Storey of Boston, who led the on siaugnt or the whole Boston crowd that Idught Brandels. The report says Take such au eminent man as Elihu Root, now the president of the Ameri muu ui a. yuuuiea lawyer wno would adorn the supreme bench. Yet it is the Irony of the present situation that in a report published in 1902. en titled, 'Root's Record In the Philippine Warfare," Moorfleld Storey, who has been most prominent in fighting the nomination of Mr. Brandels, Joined in Bunlmi ng up conclusions anTong othVs, aa fr.i,nw- as follows CrlttdaTm of Boot.

" 'That he has shown a desire not to luvcHLiBaie, a-iiu, on ma omer nana; to conceal the truth touching the war, and to shield the guilty, and by censorship and otherwise has largely succeeded.' ' "Mr. Root's preeminent position aa a citizen," proceeds the committee re port.

CAMPAIGN TO STAVE OFF PROPOSED ARMOR PLANT BILL IS MADE Washington, June 13. Tha govern ment armor plate provision In the naval appropriation bill divided the Oregon delegation in the house. Mc Arthur and Hawiey voted against it. Slnnott for it. Slnnott thinks it may never be nec essary for the government actually to manufacture armor for its battleships. but he believes It a good thing to have in reserve, so the armor plate inter ests will not be able to do as they Dlease. i The bill appropriates Jil.ooo.ooo ror establishing a government plant. Ever Since Senator Tillman, ' early in the present session, began to urge this appropriation, and sentiment appeared strong for it, the armor, makers have conducted a systematic campaign. For days at a time congressmen and news paper correspondents have received in their mail neatly prepared and well written arguments from the Bethlc ham Steel company protesting against a government plant. The pleas became almost tearful in declaring that a plant owned by the government would close up ' and destroy expensive Investments, as this government is almost the sole cus tomer for armor plate.' At the same time they have declared that' $11,000. 000 is inadequate for a plant to supply more" than one-third or one half the government needs. Few members of congress believe that the armor making plants will be dismantled. An enlarged naval pro gram means a demand for more armor, and these plants, prior to the Euro pean war, were developing some for eign business, also. ' Crater Park Booklet Out. Washington, June 13. "Forests of Crater Lake National Park," is the title of a publication by J. F. Pernot, Just issued by the department .of the in terior. This describes the principal tree 6pecies and is well Illustrated by cuts of characteristic types. "The traveler who makes only a fleeting trip to the park, .sees the lake but once and then passes on, will over look much of the best that the region can show," says the department. "It is better o remain longer within the borders, to camp beneath its hemlocks and firs, to explore its peaVs and for ests, and look often and long upon its lake, whose blue waters and wonderful tree and cliff setting leave memories that never can be lost." The publication may he had from the A Smooth, Hairless Skin for Every Woman (The Modern Beauty.) With the aid of plain delatone paste it is an easy matter to rid the skin of unsightly hairy growths.
