I of Winning in Fight.
Senatorial
Campaign Pinning Its
Faith on Ex-Governor i

-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

INJUNCTION DEFIED

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

aid to the members of the railroad
shop crafts who are now on strike.
I'nor to the presentation and adop

demanding that th senate committee

RADICALS SQUELCHED "
"Any glory which the 1. W. W.. the

the Industrial unionism movement was
entirely eliminated by the Oregon fed

urging the; araaigamotlon of local
unions in each industry under one
international head.
Objection to - the resolution, based
largely ' on the association of
the industrial union movement
with the -One Big Brotherhood'
idea and other radical movements of
a similar nature, was overcome-by the
inclusion of a paragraph to the effect
that "The resolution intends to fur

Borah May Inspire 3d Party
? t a at
Direct Primary Fight Base
By Claytoa Whltehm
United News SUff Cerrmpondent
Washington, Sept. 28. 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. .

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

country favors a return to the direct
primary system, and that such admin

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

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

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

' 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.
IMPRESSED BY SPEECH
In his letter to Senator Pierce, fee-1

of making an Investment in an enter

so heavy as to make the profits on it
highly problematical. As a matter of
fact, taxes in Oregon, based on popu

Bridge Projects
Are Eliminated by.

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,
