PORTLAND, Aug. IB. Fifty or
moro fires uro raging In tho McKon
zlo Hlvor district In Douglas county
anil Clark county, Washington.
"Klamath Falls is certainly a fine
llttlii city, and 1 am enjoying every
minute of my vlMt here," said Cap-
t,l Vt'ntf.ir 1. Tn,,9,, 1 1 11 vlulllm-
I ...... ,..,,(. ... IM1 w( " it
' EWi from Salem Lodge Xo. 336, and
i who was recently discharged from
the service after serving twenty-six
monthx. The Captain was discharg
ed at Camp (irant, Illinois, and be
fore returning to Oregon, tourvil tin;
Kast. For several yeais before en
tering the heivlce, Captain Tooze
was an active member of the Oregon
republican slal central committee
During the past six mo nt lit, Im has
traveled over various p.irtH of the
Kant and Middle West and Into parts
i of the South, and Iiiih taken that or-
raslon to find out what the political
situation appeared to be.
"The Kast and Middle West will
be overwholinliigly republican next
year," said the Captain, "and this
despite candidates or Issues. Hack
there 'tbev have been talking poll-
'tlcii ever hlnce tho President's parti
san uppviil of last fall, and thu moro
'they talk, tho htronger becomes tlm
'ranks of the republican pally. He
i turning soldiers seom to bo ulmost
unanimous in their condemnation of
thu present administration, and most
of them ar'o now republicans. At
CainpH Custer, Dodge and cthor do
mublllzatton centers. I talkod with
i tunny soldiers ,nnd 1 found them to
ho almost ot 0110 mind, anil most cf
thuin taking a stand agulnst tho
I.eitguo of Nations in Its present
shape."
"In tho East thoro Is much talk
iibout Western men, null 'Our
Oeorgo' Is not tho least talked of,
but duo to tho fact that the adminis
tration Is against him, there seems
to bo no possibility of his receiving
much consideration in tho domo
crntlc convention. Senator Polndex
tcr of Washington Ih looming up not
only us a moro possible ropublirnn
nominee, but nlso as a very possible
ono, provided tho West gots behind
him. Ills vigorous stand last jvar
with reference to tho proposed
Mooney strike hns made him 11 host
of friends among tho business men
Ho stands high in tho councils ot tho
Bonuto, and with Sonntor Johnson of
Cnllfornia, is lookod upon In tho
Kast unil Middle West us ono ot tho
real big men of tho country today.
Sonutor Johnson Is much discussed,
but tho old so-callod stand-pat olo
mont in Eastern politics hold him re
sponsible for tho 1910 party detent,
and for that reason uro opposed to
lilm. Tholr strength In a convention
cannot ho Ignored."
"The West, Including tho Rocky
Mountain and Pnclflr Const states,
Is considered tho doubtful section,
and in tho campaign noxt yonr tho
big guns ot both parUos will bo
turned upon this part of tho country.
This situation Is duo to tho fact that
In 191G tho West, voting with tho
South, mado the oloctlon of a demo
crat possible From my Btudy of con
ditions In the East, I am firmly of
1 the opinion that the West has tho
greatest opportunity in tho history
of the country to next year name the
republican nominee. People there
aro ilemundliig that the nominee be
11 man of progressive tendencies; n
inan of recognized lighting ability,
one as near like Hoosevelt In type as
possible All the big progressive
men of tho country are from the
West As a Westerner, 1 hope to see
tho "West unite behind a candidate
laud demand recognition from the
I next convention. We have got to
I break up this old Idea that our pres
idents must come from the East. We
jhavo ulways taken our part in tho
country's affairs, and New England
'had better learn boon thut the United
'.States is Ijounded on tho West by the
Pacific Ocean, instead of tho Alle
gheny mountains. As Westerners,
I wo have everything to gain and
J nothing to lose by uniting solidly
I behind a Western man for the nom
ination. If unsuccessful, wo will, at
least, hno shown tho country we
were allvo to our own interests, and
after the convention we can nd will
all lino up for tho successful nomi
nee. It Is a real opportunity for us.
I "Tho tldo of sentiment that has
' set in against tho administration is
not confined solely to the East and
' Middle West. I traveled some in
'tho South, and I found the same con-
Iditioiih to exist there, though, of;
j course, not of sulliclent forco to turn)
I nit Duiiiu ana iiuiii uiu uuiuuiruiiu
parly. Still tho election ot a repub
lican congressman from a strong
democratic district In Kentucky
should offer some Idea of how things
are going, even in tho South. All
over tho East it Is believed that no
matter whom tho republican candi
date may be, ho will be elected.
This offers us one moro reason for
this year asking that tho nominee
come from this sectien:
OREGON MAN TAKING
BIG ROLE IN LEGION
An important role In the country
wldo development ot The American
Legion Is boing taken by an Oregon
man, Oeorgo A. Whlto, of Portland,
who is giving up a two-months va
cation ho had planned on arrival
home, In order to help build tho Le
gion. Mr. White, who was recently
demobilized at Camp Dlx, N. J. as a
lieutenant colonel of the Army after
eighteen months continuous service
In France and Germany, was on
tho founders of tho legion abroar'
and the one to suggest the holding
of the Paris caucus at which the Le
gion waa launched.
On his arrival in New York late In
June, he waa met by members ot the
National Executive Committee and
urged to take an active part In the
work ot organizing the Legion In Am
erica, following hh work overt"1
Mr. White agreed to stay two weeks
and at the end of that time yielded to
a general demand by members of
tho National Committee, that the in
terests of the Legion required a fur

hung. Troops charged the mobs that
gathered and were met with a volley
of stones, No shots were fired. Loss

Harry S. Allen, past exalted ruler
of Portland lodge No. 142, will lead
the state association of Elks for the '
ensuing year and Salem will hold tho
1920 state convention within Its por
tals, following the busy business ses
sion of the final three-day session of
the Elks.
Allen was nominated by Walter
Lincoln Tooze ot Salem, who made a
splendid speech in behalf of the Port
land man. Allen's election to the pre
sidency is popular with the "Bills"'"
over the state. He is manager of thoJ
J. K. Gill book store in Portland and
Is one of the most active Elks In the
state.
Other officers elected for the com
ing year were R. Alexander of Pen
dleton, first vice-president; Thomas
S. Harvey of Marshfield second vice
president; George W. Owen of Ash
land, third vice-president; James D.
Olson ot Oregon City, secretary; C.
A. Hayden of Klamath Falls, treasur
er; and E. J. Stewart of Roseburg.
Pat Mahaffey of Bend, Colin R. Eber
hard of La Grande, trustees.
Salem won the state convention for
1920 with comparative ease. Tho
Cherry City delegates are all smiles
in their accomplishment of being able
to bring the meeting to their city
next year. Marshfield was also re
warded, for her 'pep' and enthusiasm
assembled 'delegates for the 1921
convention.
While tho lodgeroom resounded
with cheers when I, E. Vinlng ot
Medford, stepped into tho ring for
the 600 young Americans who lan
guish in military prisons, the morn
ing session of the second annual Elks
convention opened with pyrotech
nics. The meeting today furnished as
much sensation as the carnival and
battle of confetti tonight will no
doubt give to the closo of the three
day session that has brought Klam
ath Falls to the front as the conven
tion center ot the state.
United States Senators McNary and
Chamberlain and Representative Mc
Arthur will be wired by Dr. W. S.
Kennedy, president of the state Elks
Association, to help out the young
men and his stirring address from
the floor brought forth a rousing
cheer.
William McKenney, of Portland,
reported the work of the big brother
hood throughout the state. He de
clared that the work was progressing
moro actively since the termination,
of the war and he promised a vigor
ous campaign. Mr. McKenney is the
donor ot the Kennedy cup which was
won by the Portland ritualistic team'
yesterday.
This evening at 7:30 p. m. Elks
from all over the state will march
In the great victory parade that will
bo led by the Ashland float. Indica
tions nro that tho lodges will stage
various stunts and formations nlons
the line ot march that will go the en
tiro length of Main Street as far as
tho White Pelican Hotel nnd return
by way of Main Street.
Tonight the entire herd of Elks
are planning on the close of tho con
vention with a real Mnrdl Gras, the
llko ot which Klamath Falls has yet
to know. Tons of confetti, barrels ot
serpentines, horns of nil sorts and
ovory noise mnking instrument will
piny a leading pnrt in tho farewell of
Elkdom to tho city by tho lakes.
Wherever tho hords move, thoy
havo only compllmonts for the recep
tion they recolvo. Exalted Ruler Jul
ius Borg of Portland declared this
morning that tho greetings nnd the
treatment were nothing short ot
loyal.
