(Contained from Pit One)
Senator Hiram Johnson will "fan
out at the plate." when it comes to
the primary election In his native
state, according to Frank C. 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.

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.

they're built together upon one base, taking up
practically the same space as a single range.

MUST have an absolutely ticht oven. FURTHER, to have a purely ven
