Jordan? secretary of state of California. Jor dan is touring the Northwest in the Interests of Hoover or anyone else : who is opposed to Johnson, and inci dentally looking after the sale of i state rights in a punctureless auto mobile tube. He has been secretary of state of California for 12 years, and prior to that was 'clerk of the California supreme court for four years and clerk of Alameda county for eight years,' so it stands to reason ; that he knows something about po litical straws and political winds, as i well as, punctured tubes. HANT' OPPOSED TO HIM According to Jordan's declaration. : Senator Johnson isn't a Republican and won't get more than a handful of Ke- publican votes ; the Progressives of . Houthern California, who were formerly , staunch adherents of Johnson, have i turned him down because of his opposi ; tlon to the League of Nations; 25,000 : members of the four railroad brother : hoods will oppose hia nomination on ac i count of his record on labor legislation ; the "wets" are solid in opposition be cause Johnson favored the national pro hibition movement and for similar rea- sons he lost the friendship of the vita culturlsts of his home state ; all the women in California are strong for fl Hoover, and Just to rub it In a bit, Jor f dan predicts trat at least 180.000 Demo i: crats will go into the Republican prl- niarles and vote for Hoover. JOHNSON'S HISTORY Johnson's political history, as out- ;s lined by Jordan, Is as follows: In 191-0 i he registered ts a Republican and was -elected on that ticket as governor of i California ; he Joined the Progressiva i party In 1912 and threw his influence ' against Taft in the presidential elec tion : in 1914. Jovtnson was still a Pro gressive and as such defeated a Re publican nominee for governor: in 1915 " he Introduced in the stte legislature a ronpartisan bill which would have de stroyed all party organization and made ' It necessary for the people twice to Kill the measure by referendum vote; in 1915 he also secured the passage of . amendments to the California primary : law so that voters mny express their : preference for candidates regardless of party registration : Johnson registered as a Progressive In 1916, according to Jordan, and after inducing thousands of members of that party to register as Republicans, "filched the nomination for : the United States senate on the Republi ,1 can ticket" ; he failed to throw his H strength to Hi.ghes that year and con- pany, it appears, la to get more money, and it Is to be either by reduction of expense or Increase in fare. It Is thai car rider that la affected solely and entirely. Either his burden is partially .relieved through removal of fixed charges, or is added to by in creased fares on top of the charges. Furthermore, argue the experts, the money now paid to the company in the fixed charges is of no value what ever to the corporation. TAX ON CAE EIDER It does not pay wages, pay for equip ment, pay for tracks or pay for oper ating expenses. It ia . turned by the company over to the city to be used in defraying! municipal expenses. It Is a tax on the car rider through the company, and for all the good it does the corporation it had as well not be collected. However, if the company were not compelled to meet the expense of municipal government through the charges, just that much less revenue would car riders be compelled to pay, say authorities. And they emphasize that relief from the fixed charges does not redound to the benefit of the com pany, but to the benefit of the company backers, the car riders.

VILLA TO ASSIST OBREGDH'S REVOLT Rebel Chief Has Definitely De cided to, Join Forces Opposed Mo Carranza. Washington. April 24. (U. P.) Francisco Villa, rebel chief, has defi nitely joined the Obregon revolt to overthrow President Carranza. de spit the fact that General Obregon is known as the "only man who ever defeated Villa," according to an an nouncement tonight at the headquar ters of General Alvarado, represen tative here of the revolution. The news of the Mexican revolution available in 'Washington today was one sided, practically all favoring the rebels. Dispatches were received today from Chihuahua City that Villa had sent assurances to Governor De la Huerta of Sonora that he would cooperate with the revolution against the Mexican fed eral troops in Chihuahua. Villa declared that the federals would not be allowed to leave Chihuahua to invade Sonora. Alvarado said Villa Is fully prepared for his campaign in Chihuahua in sup port of the Obregon revolt. In his foray several months ago in Coahulla, the home state of President Carransa, Villa confiscated a large amount of ammuni tlon that Carranza had secretly stored at Musqulz, according to Alvarado. 0111 El Will Represent Oregon At the forty-third annual convention of the National Electric Light associa tion in Pasadena, Cal., May 18-21, tenta tive program for which has Just been Issued. Oregon will be represented by Franklin T. Griffith, president of the Portland Railway, Light 4 Power com pany, reporting on the year's develop ment. Griffith is chairman of the N. K. L.. A. committee on water power development T! 0 MANY REPUBLICANS porters encouragement. They point to Herbert Hoover, as a progressive 'Re publican and a Westerner. The Califor nia primaries win show that be j has strength In both parties. The more John son appears as the "menace,' to con servative Republicanism, the more neces urv will it be to nick someone who: can prevent Johnson from forming a third j party. Hoover is popular outside! the political organisations. He is moreover liked by i business men who believe- his Judgment would be more in sympathy with large business enterprises and would encourage individual initiative more than would that of the radical senator from California, JOHNSON IS FEAKKD So as the situation appears today; the Republican conservatives of the East are apprehensive of Senator Johnson. They fear a third party If he is turned down at Chicago. And if that doesn t happen they realize what the effect; can be of Johnsonian "support" There jwas, no third party in 1916 and Hiram John-, son "supported" Governor Hughes. ' but the people of California knew that! the senator was merely keeping party pledges and that he was affronted by the intimacy of the Republican presiden tial nominee with the reactionary wing of the Republican party in California. The Republican leaders must consider three things how not to offend Johnson if they don't nominate him and how to keep his followers In line for the Repub lican nominee1 and how. to retain the in dependent vote which has shown a dis like for the organisations in both politi cal parties in the formation of Hoover clubs thrughout the country. STRENGTH HELPS HOOTER Just now It looks as if Johnson's strength helps the cause of Herbert Hoover the only Republican prominent in the public eye with the exception of William Howard Taft who could do serious damage to the Democratic plans to use the treaty as an issue or vehicle whereby control of the government would ' be retained for the next four years. Hoover has stood from the be ginning for the League of Natins and the peace 'treaty . with changes or re visions such as sentiment in the allied world is demanding. ; (Con tinned From Pace One) A company of state cavalry, consist ing of 80 men, has been organized and sworn In at Pocatello. naturally that Senator Johnson will win the Republican nomination. "BROTHER" JOHNSON RADICAL. But Brother Johnson is not altogether satisfactory to the conservatives in the Republican party. They accuse him of radicalism. His friends respond that Hiram is a liberal and a safe one at that, and if the Republicans don't take John son, they are likely to get a Democratic radical, which is supposed to be a worse fate than would be in store for the coun try than if the California senator were elected. The Republican leaders, however, know very well that the extreme yiews of Johnson on the peace treaty would be embarrassing, for if he were the nomi nee It would remove the cry for the Lodge reservstions. Senator Johnson voted against them alL So as Johnson develops the Republicans must find some man who "stands right on the treaty issue. Governor Lowden, Leonard Wood, Senator Harding all wanted the Lodge reservations to accompany America's entrance Into the league. But to offset Johnson, somebody must be brought forth who can carry the West someone who is 'also a progressive and someone who Isn't too closely affiliated with Eastern Republicanism.
