MAYOR'S
DISMISSAL
OFFICIALLY
UPHELD
LIVE MEET AHEAD
FOR DEMOCRATS
Saturday's meeting; of the Demo
cratic state central committee, called
for the purpose of electing a chair
man to succeed Harvey Starkweath
er, resigned to become a candidate
for United States senator, promises
to be one of the most largely at
tended in recent Democratic politi
cal history If responses to the call
recently Bent out are any indication.
Democrats over, the state generally,
those friendly to Senator Chamberlain
and those who have been taking no part
in the Chamberlain and anti-Cbamber-laln
fight as well, seem not at all pleased
with the program of opposition outlined
by ex-Postmaster Myers, Starkweather,
County Chairman Hamaker, Mrs. Alex
ander Thompson. R. A. Miller, Newton
McCoy and one or two others. They are
particularly out of sympathy with the
use of the office of the staje central
committee by Starkweather and Mrs.
Thompson in the furtherance of their
own candidacies, contrary to the usual
practice which demands that the state
committee, and those connected with it
shall preserve a neutral attitude during
primary campaigns.
HTEB9 WAJUriHG UNHEEDED
Generally, the opposition of ex-Postmaster
Myers and his coterie to the can
didacy of Senator Chamberlain is not
being given very serious consideration,
based as it is on the disgruntlement of
Myers at the loss of his job and the fact
that Senator Chamberlain did not heed
the warning that unless he secured rein
statement for Myers the latter would
oppose his renomination and reelection.
This general attitude is due in large
part to the underlying fact that the dis
charge of Myers from the postmaster
ship grew out of an investigation de
manded, in the first instance by Myers
himself. In an effort to secure the re
tirement of Assistant Postmaster Dur
and, a demand which reacted upon him
self and brought about his own removal
by the postmaster general and President
Wilson.
CHAMEBBLAIN OUT OF IT
The Myers opposition Is still further
negatived by the wide knowledge of the
fact that Myers warned Senator Cham
berlain and various of his close friends
in Portland that if the senator would
move actively to prevent his removal, or
to secure his reinstatement, he would
support him for renomination, otherwise
he would oppose him ; a combined prom
ise and threat Issued in the face of the
fact that Senator Chamberlain had no
jurisdiction or power in the matter the
one way or the other under the presi
dential order removing the first class
postmasterships from political con
nection and putting them entirely under
civil service regulations.
When the state central committee
meets at the Portland hotel Saturday It
Is expected that a successor to Chair
man Starkweather will be elected, other
than J. D. Brown, who was appointed to
the position by Starkweather. The law
provides that in case of the resignation
of a state chairman the committee shall
elect his successor, and this -not having
been done, it is contended that Brown
has no legal title to the position and
is not state chairman either tn law or
in fact
RECOUNT OF N. J. VOTE
(CoatJaved from Pit On)
nearly equally between the formally pre
sented candidates. Senator Warren 'G.
Harding and Major General Leonard
Wood. The Harding vote was largely
anti-Wood, according to experts, and the
Wood vote was almost entirely anti
Harding, with little devotion to the mili
tary candidate.
Harding's general manager, Harry M.
Daugherty, saw the primary as a vindi
cation of the candidate, saying: :It was
a remarkable victory for Senator Hard
ing in Ohio'' and we must consider the
fact that there was a very light vote,
that no money was used for bill board
advertising and no money was used to
pay workers for Harding. Considering
the results yesterday in Massachusetts,
New Jersey, Ohio, everybody can now
see that General Wood's nomination is
impossible. We are well satisfied with
the result and will nowgo forth with
the assurance that the nation will rat
ify Ohio's choice."
LATER OHIO RETURNS GIVE
HARDING LITTLE MORE LEAD
-Columbus, Ohio, April 29. (I. N. S.)
Complete unofficial returns from 83 out
of 88 counties and partial returns from
the other five show that Senator War
ren G. Harding carried Tuesday's presi
dential preference election in Ohio by a
plurality of about 17,000 over Major Gen
eral Leonard Wood. The vote was,
Harding 133.984 and Wood 117,320.
A slight Increase' in Harding's plural
ity Is expected when the returns from
the 47 precincts in Brown, Clermont, Co
lumbian. Miami and Williams counties,
as yet unrecorded, are heard from.
The final count will probably show
the 48 'delegates going to the Chicago
convention aligned as follows:
Harding 40, Wood 8. - v
According to the unofficial -returns.
Senator Harding will have three out of
the four delegates at large. Present in
dications are that his national chairman,
H. M. .Daugherty, has been defeated by
W. H. Boyd of Cleveland.

LAD'S TESTIMONY
IS MAN S UNDOING
The testimony of a ragged, cor
duroy clad 11-year-old mountain lad
today caused F. 'A. Hurst to be
bound over" to the federal grand
jury, following a hearing before
United States Commissioner Drake,
on a charge of stealing government
property from a forest ranger's cabin
high in the Coast Range mountains.
Unflinching before " the sometimes in
tricately worded questions of Deputy
United States Attorney Lusk and those
of counsel for Hurst, the lad, Lawrence
Brown, found ready answers and uttered
them in a clear, straightforward manner
that surprised court attaches and the
usual commissioner's court audience.
Lawrence lives with his parents on a
hillside ranch nine miles from Toledo,
where in his few years he has learned
much of the lore of the mountains and
the farm. His knowledge of the tricks
of the trappers and hunters and their
instrument a, as well as his familiarity
with livestock and wild life, revealed, at
torneys say, an unusually keen mind.
Facing an august court for the first
time in his life, the mountain boy had
no hesitancy in telling what he believed
to be the truth about Hurst's alleged
theft, although he declared that Hurst
had threatened to have him sent to the
reform school for telling.
Hurst is charged with the theft of
pack saddles, tools, a tent fly , and an
assortment of food from the forest serv
ice cabinv to which he took Lawrence
Brown on the day of the alleged theft.
The boy was his undoing, for, he told
the court, when he saw what Hurst had
done he promptly reported to the forest
ranger and Hurst's arrest in Portland
followed.
Hurst has a splendid war record,
which his attorney presented to the
court, showing 21 months of overseas
service and participation in practically
all the major engagements of the Amer
ican forces. On the strength of ' this
record Hurst will be released from bond
on his'own recognizance, if he can pro
duce two persons to vouch for him.

For Future Peace
Meridian, Miss., April 29. (I. X. S.)
Formation of the United States. Canada.
Australia, New Zealand and all the

Premier Lloyd George, addressing
the house of commons, today on the
results of the San Remo conference,
declared that Germany In her pres

Seven Problems of
Vital Importance
By Kobel Taylor
(t nitnl News Ktaff Corrnorvint. )
Rio Janeiro, April 29. Seven questions
of vital importance to the country faced
disposition by the Brazilian congress on
its reopening today.
The first problem to be solved by the
legislators is the reduction of the pre
vailing high tariffs. Following this, the
necessary building of new railways and
highways will come up for action.
The question of the disposition of for
mer German ships seized by Brazil, and
the fight over the proposed establish
ment of a central bank having the power
to issue currency, will soon come before
the congress, and the establishment of
many new government Institutions must
be acted on.

The seventh task before the body Is
the establishment of definite boundary
