Cm THAW AND NEWS STANDS" FIVE CENTS 28, 0 'Michigan ( Democrats See Hope I of Winning in Fight. Senatorial Campaign Pinning Its Faith on Ex-Governor i Clash Hot -By j David Lawrence- (CopjnM. by The Journal) -'Detroit, Sept. 28. The Democrat: have the best chance of electing : United States senator in Michigan th:. they have had since the Civil wh-t Translated into political actualities however, this la only another way o. saying that the Republican majorilv of 300,000 will be extensively reducec and Senator Townsend, Repubiicati will pull through,, toy a relatively arna. margin. The campaign has hardly begun, ha it will be admitted that former Gov ernor Kerns, who Is 'funning for th United Ktates senate on the Demo cratic ticket, is a fascinating speiafce end vote Better. Twice he carried th state, and to do so any Democrat mv? win the . Republican voters to - hi standard by tens of thousands. h. strength wrs not sufficient, howeve: two years ago to offset the Hardin tide, and he was defeated by 360,O0i which was only 80,000, better than U Democratic totals for president. VICTOKIES RECALLED Those who believe former Goverm Ferris has a chance -to win, base the hunch on the fact that he has ti carried ii Republican state of such ti as this, and they arjfue that th- ' landslide would have ruri"d p"-bc.'' Mr. f'erris makes friends on the stumn, and draws immense crowds. He twists his opponent constantly, and promises an interesting campaign-for Michigan. As for issues, the chief complaint against Senator Townsend is that he refused to vote to unseat his colleague. Truman H. Newberry. There' is a good deal of agitation over Newberry. It didn't all vanish after the primar ies, either. The 125,000 votes which Herbert Baker got lit tun . primaries for United Suites seiiaui variously described aa "sinister :n significant." It's the same type vote that helped Roosevelt sweep U state against Taft, and the same rati teal fringe which carried the prejsi dential primaries for Hiram Johnaor BKMOCKATS FIOUKE The Democratic calculators simpi add the 125.000 to Mr. Ferris' prospec tive total, and remark that Mr, To.vn send really polled only one ninth o the state vote on primary day. Just why Mr. Ferris, who was t: no means a radical when he was gov cr nor, should acquire all the Bakej , vote is not clear, thougb It is, apparent he wHl win targe blocks or progreaalvr and liberal votes. The addition of th . 125,000 wouldn't, of course, be enough to insure the election of Mr. Ferris. This much, ia certain, Mr. Ferris wilt - poll the normal Democratic vote and will draw to his banner on .personal issues alone a large part of the. Re- " publican strength. Unless the campaign should delin eate the issues and develop unexpected fireworks, the forecast of a class vote with a safe majority for Townsend Is what one is given by most persons of disinterested Judgment In the political world hereabouts. Two or three days of edld weather just before election might cause many Republicans to stay at home and express that way their protest against the handling of the rail and coal strikes. The supply of hard coal is as yet too uncertain to decide the fajUi of the candidates, but the party ilr power will suffer some losses here as elsewhere on that grievance. STUIKE GHOST HISES Again in Michigan, as in Ohio, the public has the impression that Mr. Harding wasn't firm enough irt the strike crista No one comes forward with a concrete suggestion aa to what he might have done opinion hasn't crystallised on alternatives but the labor people criticize the president for what he did while the businessmen criticize him for what he didn't do ( 'nnrludtd on Page Thirteen, Column Three.) INJUNCTION DEFIED BY OREGON LABOR Salem. Sept. 28. In open defiance of the injunction recently obtained by Attorney General. Daugherty against the extension of aid or encouragement to the striking railroad shopmen, the Oregon State Federation af Labor in session here today adopted by unani mous vote and without debate a reso lution urging that all labor organisa tions within the state extend financial aid to the members of the railroad shop crafts who are now on strike. I'nor to the presentation and adop tion of this resolution another resolu tion was adopted by the convention demanding that th senate committee proceed with the Impeachment of' Daugherty and calling upon the Ore gon delegation in congress to "work and vote for such conviction that the ends of justice may be conserved."

Senator Wil liam E. Borah leaves for Idaho Thurs day, his going foreshadows the possi ble development of a third party. A nation-wide return to the direct prim ary system would be the keystone of the third party structure. . Although Borah has no personal sen atorial fight on his hands, his term ex piring March S. 1925. he is entering the Idaho state legislature fight to help in the election of liberal Republicans. And, in the opinion of observers here, he would not be chagrined at the election of a Democratic legislature. His purpose is to help restore the di rect primary ' system In Idaho. The last Republican legislature repealed the direct primary law in 1918. The Republican candidates In the present campaign in Idaho are running on a pro-convention system platform. The Democrats favor a return to the primary system. ;- Borah would prefer, it is known, to support a, liberal Re publican group, if possible, because he wants to stay in the party. - - Should liberal Republicans or Demo crats be defeated in Idaho this , fall, it will be. a- signal for definite Steps Jn the direction of a third party. , And Borah would stand , a chance of head ing that third party. The action of the Idaho legislature in repealing the direct primary law in 1918 la said to have been . with a view to getting Borah's scalp in 1924. . - Borah's - friends, however, . believe that popular sentiment throughout the Repairs of Morrison Span Start Temporary repairs on the Morrison street bridge which are designed to keep the bridge open for a few week until the necessary legal steps are executed which will permit the start ing of permanent repairs, were begun today under direction of County Road master Katchel. Gilpin Construction company, now repairing the draw rest, were employed to make the temporary repairs. It was found on examination that immediate work was necessary if the bridge was to remain open. District Attorney Stanley Myers informed the county commissioners it would be im possible to proceed with permanent repairs under a cost plus plan, but that they must advertise for bids for any work which would cost more than $258. He said, however, that tempor ary repairs could be made under the cost plus plan on a force account. These temporary repairs will keep the bridge open for a few weeks until bids have been awarded for the per manent work, which will not be begun until the repair work on the cradle rest had been finished. When the per manent work is begun the bridge will be closed for six weeks or two months. The cost will bp between 340,000 and $50,000. which bring3 the total repair cost for the lasl three years on this bridge to $200,000. Untrod, WaUed-In Valley May Harbor Mother Gold Ledge Redding, Cal., Sept. 28. (I. N. S.) A verdant valley of approximately 640 acres has been discovered high up in the Salmon river -mountains in Siski you county near the Trinity county border. It is almost certain no human feet have trod the meadow tract. Several attempts have been made to reach the valley in the last few weeks but all have failed. The mountain valley is walled in by jagged granite rocks of such precipitous dimensions that nc one can scale them with ordinary ap pliances. A tiny creek meanders through the valley and finds its exit in a waterfall 800 feet high over a precipice as straight up and down as a stone wall. A Trinity county miner found gold all along the creek, clear up to the precipice that barred his way. This miner, Gordon Abrams, climbed a peak ami looked owr into the 1 valley through a spyglass. He saw a gray peak cutting across it. He believes this Is a quartz ledge, possibly the mother lode of the gold he found in the placer diggings below. Abrams is almost certain, be says. mortal man has never entered the valley, and that no one is likely to enter it soon. Portland Man Hurt In Airplane Fall; 3 Have Close Call Tacoma, Wash., Sept. 28. Three per sons, cne from Portland, had narrow escapes from death at Camp Lewis today when an airplane in which They were gaining altitude fell at a height of 70 feet, a few seconds after they had taken off. - B. S. Turk, mechanic from Portland; H. J. Brown, aviator registered from Chicago, and Miss Myrtle Westlund, stenographer , employed In the Greene Park Garage at Camp Lewis, were the occupants of the plaice. The plane was wrecked. The two men were assisted from beneath it by soldiers who ran to the scene of the crash. Miss Westlund was im prisoned beneath the gasoline tank, and an officer splitting wood at his home nearby used the axe effectively in releasing her. Scratches and cuts were suffered hy all, who were given first aid at tentionat the- camp hospital. The plane was a Curtiss oriole. The name "Washington-Oregon Aircraft Co. No. 57" was painted on it. It arrived at Camp Lewis last night from Portland. country favors a return to the direct primary system, and that such admin istration victories as that recorded by Senator Freitnghuysen in New Jersey are sertain to have a liberal reaction in 1924. It is an open secret that a w1tl cleavage already exists in the Repub lican party because of the direct prim ary issue. The administration is on record as favoring the growth of the convention systen-- President Harding, in his Lincoln memorial dedication ad dress, indorsed the convention system. The Ideal third party, therefore, would not be a third party.-in that it would run in close competition wih the old guard Republicans and the Demo crats. It would jsuppiant. If possible, the old guard Republicans. Borah and bis liberal associates, both in senate and house, are oX the belief that the American government is essentially a two-party government. Already, it is known, these two fac tions of the Republican party are lin ing up. Ail the administration leaders represent the pro -convention faction. Senators Borah, Johnson, La Follette. Norris, Norbeck and . In the new ; con gress Senators-elect Brookhart - and Frazier and Representatives Wood ruff and Johnson represent the liber alisation elements. Members of this group have gone so far as to predict that a reconciliation is impossible. ; Whether Borah would be a presi dential candidate In 2924 as the Choice of the liberal faction, or verve as its organization leader, with La Follette as the presidential choice, is still high ly speculative.- At present the political sympathies of tfrganised labor would seem to f avoii La Follette.

GIVES $5000 TO Jesse Winb.urn of Ashland, won to the cause of Walter M. Pierce by an address made by him in the Southern Oregon town, has sent his check for $5000 to the Democratic state head quarters for use In the. Pierce guber natorial campaign. ' Wlnburn is a man of. means who, after making a fortune in streetcar advertising in New York, came to Southern Oregon to live, settling at Ashland. It was announced, at one time, that he contemplated the erection of a large hotel at that point.

I came with the intention of making an Investment in an enter prise of considerable magnitude, but upon investigation I find that the taxes on the contemplated investment are so heavy as to make the profits on it highly problematical. As a matter of fact, taxes in Oregon, based on popu lation, are higher and Its bonded in debtedness larger, I am told, than in any other state In the Union. "Recently I heard you sptak in Ash land on the subject of taxation, and your bo and reasoning, your - common sense views, your proposals for the equalization-and -reduction of taxation and your general policies impressed me profoundly.

County Commission Through ithe- pocket .veto route, the Sellwood and St. Johns bridge projects were eliminated from the fall . ballot today, as.. far the county : commission was concerned. Today was the last day in which the commissioners could have decided upon placing elective matters on the ballot. At a recent meeting the commission approved the Beacon and Burnslde bridge projects, and guaranteed posi tions for these two on the ballot. Al though petitions were received ,- from many quarters on the other two bridges no action was taken. The com mission did 'not meet today. The Burnside bridge project is for a $3,000, 000 expenditure, and the Beacon bridge calls for an investment of! $1,600,000.
