Telephone 87T Member Audit Burraa Circulation PORTLAND AS A MEETING PLACE That Portland is the cen ter of Oregon, although lo cated on one side of the state, is plain to be observ ed )y anyone who is familiar with the state. A brief visit I to Portland always causes one. to meet many men who congregate there, for vari ous reasons at different times and the meeting is always pleasant, for Oregon people are more or less of one big family after all. Anyone who has lived in the state for upwards of 20 years has a personal friend which can always be en joyed by paying a visit to the city of Portland. There he sees most of them as they come and go, to use the, language of Johnny Keliey in the Oregonian. A few. days jig we hap pened to be in Portland on Saturday morning and to our pleasure and satisfac tion we ran against the State Republican Central Committee, which Was bil led tp Jfave a session on that day. 'in the' same old Im perial hotel, which has sheltered republicans of the state in the days of Phil Metchan, Sr., members of the. present committee con gregated and talked over their plans for the future campaign. It was in the same iden tical room that Chas. Mc Kary started on his road to the; United States Senate, that on last Saturday, the different leaders of the par ty made speeches and told how they would succeed in defeating Al Smith for pres ident and electing - a con gressional and state ticket. Several of the old faces were there, but there have been many changes. Since 1910, when Jay Bowerman was the leading Republican of the state, and ran for Governor, what is known as the "old guard" has almost disappeared from active participation in active party affairs. In fact, for many years after the direct primary was in full swing, such a thing as a state committee was considered useless and it has only been in the last fer years that the term "organization" was even considered, or hardly dared be considered by the Grand Old Party of Oregon. For this reason, such old time Republicans as Bill Cake, Jay Bowerman, John Cavanaugh, J. O. Elrod, Ferdinand, E. . Reed, and many,, others hav ceased to be present at these gather ings. We did notice, however, in the meeting Saturday, Chas. B. Moores, one of the stalwart Repub licans, of Oreon. Jar..half a (feneration. -And there was, also, Frank Davey, one who never fails to worn; in the party's ranks, and takes a leading part in political af fairs of the state; Phil Mct- chan, the . present state chairman, who was re-elected for another term, is, in fact, one of the younjrer crowd. His father was once state treasurer from Canyon 'City. In the last few years 1 Phil has taken a great in terest in party affairs and has proven a valuable lead er to tne nenuoiican party. i Xeuner, present federal dis- trict attorney, who used to live in Douglas county; Tom Tongue, who has solved a lot of problems in public affairs in the state; Dr. Donnelly, of The Dalles lt'llA ia on nfrliint T? i 1 1 1 ! .. ...

McCulley, of Wallowa county, who has voted for the Republican ticket ever since he was 21 years old, and lived in Marion county; H. H. ' Weatherspoon, of Union county, now repre sentative in the Legislature; E. E. Brodie,. prominent in the affairs at Oregon City. There was Hal Hoss, pres ent candidate for secretary of state, w;ho is one of the active politicians; and H. V. Swift, one of the older Re publicans from Baker coun ay. Of course, there were many others, but this gal axy of gentlemen made up an interesting body and the way they planned to defeat the democrats in the coming election was interesting to hear, for all of them are good workers and of force ful chraacter.

"We'll be going In few minutes." Mr. Leigh turned a searching glance upon her and Virginia read something In it that cut her deeply. "I'm sorry," he said.

His plantation waa neglected, his house falling to ruins and he himself laid low with no one to attend biro save one lone old darkey. It had been Impossible to bur den him with another's troubles. Even had she done so the Indica tions were that It would have been of no avail. A prosperous man did not live as she had found Oddly Leigh.
