v The pubHe ownership advocates
feel tbe stir since J. D. Ross has
i come to BonneTille. Senator Car-
ney and Morton Tompkins are
bow hired to .sell -Juice." Carney
was a speaker at the county farm
ers union yesterday and went on
I, to Albany for a meeting in tbe
l afternoon at which Boy. Hewitt
also spoke, .''.:.:
Marion county proponents of
the P. U. D. (public utility dis
trict) are considering calling a
fresh election on . the question.
The county farmers union 'coa
rention yesterday endorsed such
a move, also recommended a
change In the law to permit sale
of revenue bonds for financing.
The "left front" in Oregon is
fractured over Commonwealth
and CIO. The , right wing of the
left front denounces these groups
' as communistic In purpose. But
J. D. Ross picked Carney. Com
monwealth federation Tice presi
dent, for one of his field men.
That doesn't set so well with the
anti-Commonwealth people.
The farmers who farm; are not
eager for any farmer-labor alli-
. ance. At the Farmer union meet
ing yesterday a motion critical of
Associated Farmers organization
was roted down by a decisive rote.
Senator W. E. Burke of Yam
hill county was in Salem yester
dav. He was wearing his over
coat, but expects to get it off be
fore long In his fight to retain his
seat against the competition of
R. H. C. Bennett. Newberg. pres
ent representative.
.
Death of Milton Miller, collect
or of eustoms, merely makes the
scramble ! for his lucrative post
more general. He was a Pierce
nominee;! but Pierce no longer
controls Oregon patronage. Mrs.
' Nan Wood Honeyman and Na
tional Committeman Howard Lat
ourette, have much to say. The
latter is -said to have endorsed
Hugh McClain. Coos c o u n t y
judge, for the post. Mrs. Honey
man will probably submit a list
laying they are all acceptable to
her. '
There Is competition also for
Jack Summerrille's job as TJ. S.
marshal. He Is another Pierce
man and that is a handicap in the
present democratic organization.

A. M. DALRYMPLE
Four Are Seeking
Job of Collector
Dalrymple I Endorsed by
Demos Here; Fisk and
McLain Mentioned
The job of collector of customs,
long held by a citizen of the first
congressional district, is being
sought by no fewer than four
candidates in addition to 15 or
more in the Portland district, ac
cording to reports here yesterday.
Ia addition to A. M. Dalrymple.
veteran Marlon county democrat,
who was proposed for the office
Friday night by the county dem
ocratic society. County Judge Fred
Fisk of Lane county. County
Judge Hugh McLain of Coos coun
ty and Jack Caufield of Tillamook
are understood to bg cabling for
the collectorship, ' hich was left
vacant by the recent death of Mil
ton A. Miller of Lebanon.
A prominent party member, ar
riving here from Portland asserted
competition was so thick and
heated among contenders there
that, in his opfnion, Mr. Dalrymple
had a good opportunity to step
into the office, which pays a
$5000 a year salary. As Miller'j
term would have expired in March,
it is expected that either an im
mediate appointee may be con
tinued over for the new term, of
four years, or t h a t no 'appoint
ment may be made until March 1.
, Mr. Dalrymple says he declined
to oppose the late collector for re
appointment and instead gave him
his own endorsement. Dairy m pit
served under Miller when the lat
ter was collector of internal rev
enue under the President Wilson,
administration. He was warden of
the state penitentiary in 1923-4-5
and for the last six years has been
democratic state committeeman
for Marion county. He is employ
ed in the tax department of the
sheriff's office.
Unless the local county court
backs up, Dalrymple will not have
its endorsement sirice the court
recently responded to a request
by endorsing the candidacy of
Judge Fisk for the collectorship,
before Dalrymple's name was men
tioned.
Paroles Favored,
Only Three Cases
Out of 23 prison cases consld
ered by the-state parole board at
Friday's meeting, only three par
oles were recommended, W. L.
Qosslin, member of the board, an
nounced.
Gosslin said the present unsat
isfactory business conditions made
it difficult to obtain jobs for par
olees with the result that the num
ber 'of parole violations was in
creasing. "
Recommendations for parole
are filed with Governor Charles
H. Martin.

go back Into the cell without the
matron, so again she was sent for
at the dance hall. ,
Both went into the cell to find
out what the gorgeous Miss De
Vaux wished. They soon found out.
Miss DeVaux doffed a beautiful
set of hair and exclaimed, "I'm
not Sadie DeVaux I'm Edward

wore, he said was his mother's
as was the purse he carried, and
the dress his sister's. The rest of
his makeup he claims to have
'snitched."
"I've done quite a bit of im
personating on the stage," he in
