OHIO !1 BE BATTLE 6R00ND NEW ;:K SITOATION IS BAD INDIAN. TO BE LET ALONE 'Friends of Administration Insinuate That Roosevelt Is Work ing Up Situation So the Party Will Be Forced to Call Him as a Political Moses Read Between the Lines, It Can Be Seen That Roosevelt Is Suspected of Quietly Assisting in Defeat of Party in Maine, in Order to Discredit Taft. Beverly, Mass., Sept. 13. No state ment regarding the election In Maine , was Issued today from the executive offices here. The Maine results shocked Taft and his advisers. That Is an open secret, and the result was not more pleasant hecauso of the president's recent visit to Maine, and the seml-polltlcal speeches he made, In which ho called atotntion to the length of service of Maine's public men. Although nothing like a statepient lias been given out, the Idea seems to have been adopted by common consent that President laft will not be a can didate for re-election. Supporters of the administration are denying that there is a breech between Taft and Roosevelt, but the Maine returns are considered a demonstration of the belief that there is no love lost be tween the president and his prede cessor. The Taft followers and the administration men insinuate that Roosevelt is looking for a cry for a "political Moses." One of tho results of the Maine election will bo a hurried change in the campaign plans for New York and Ohio. Some of the ablest strategists of the administration will be sent to Ohio to aid in the light .there. Spell binders will flood the state and every effort will bo made to elect Warren ROOSEVELT WOOLD NOT TALK CANNON f UNITED FSESS IJS1SED WlnE.l New York, Sept. 13. Colonel Theo dore Roosevelt appeared in his office at tho Outlook today. Tho colonel proceeded to "stoep himself in liter ary calm," refusing to discuss tho result of tho election in Maine. -, "I have Just returned from a West ern tour," ho said, "and am ready to steep myself in literary calm. I have no word to say of the Maine elec tions" Tho contributing editor Intimated CIIAIONER FACETIOUSLY DISCUSSES "SONG-BIRDS.' UNITED PEKSS LCMED WIBO.l Cobham, Va., Sept. 13. "I'm sor roy for Bob, but it's my turn to laugh," was John Armstrong Chan loner's comment today upon the dif ficulties in which his brother, Rob ert Winthrop Chanler is Involved as the result of his marrlago to Mmo. Llna Cavallorl. "I flatter myself that I foretold what would happen," Chanloner con tinued. "Wheu I first heard of my brother's engagement, I telegraphed him to bo sure to keep enough money to buy his luncn and an oc casional suit of clothes. "I congratulated Mmo. Cavallerl before and after tho wedding. I didn't congratulate Bob. She was the ono'to be congratulated because of tho complete success of her plans. "Also, I knew tho woman from tho very first. I had never met her but I had seen scores of pictures of her. I am a student of physiognomy, and I was nblo at onco to form an esti mate of her character nnd her abil ity which proved correct. "Mme. Caval'erl was "a woman handshaker handshaker." Only she didn't shake hands with her hands. 8he did It with hor oyes. Pray gl70 her credit for what she accom plished." Chaloner himself was before tho public several years ago when hg was placed in a New York asylum through, hp claimed, tho machina tions of certain members of his fam ily. His name" thon was John Arm strong Chalner. When he was dis missed from the asylum, to show hi contempt for the family, he changed his name to Chaloner, purchased an estate near Cobham and came here to live. H's intervlow was given in his bedroom. Occasionally during tho AND See BARR'S JEWELRY STORE The Greatest G, Harding over Governor Judson Harmon., The administration is par ticularly anxious to win Ohio, Taft's own state, and the leaders are in clined to believe today, according to the politicians here, that a hard fight will face them. In New York tho situation is con sidered critical. With an open rup ture between tho progressive faction of tho Republican party, headed by Colonel Roosevelt, and the old guard fighting to. name a stand-pat ticket, and adopt a "regular' 'platform, tho chances for Democratic success are considered excellent. It Is believed the administration leaders will stay out of the fight, but they will counsel the regulars to end the differences within the party, if possible, and that as soon as tho ticket is named the ac tive campaign will begin. Strategists and spell-binders will be rushed into tho state In an effort to prevent the defeat of tho Republican party. It is believed that the administra tion will not lend a helping hand to Indiana Republicans this fall. The progressives are in control there, and will bo left very largely to their own resources. Most of tho strength of tjio administration forces will be con centrated in unio ana New orK, un less plans aro radically altered before the election rolls around. MAKES NO NOISE that he might find time to make a statement later. Danville, 111., Sept. 13. Speaker Joseph G. Cannon had no comment to make today on the result of thei elec tion in Maine. Cannon said he didn't caro to talk until final returns had been received. Two years ago, when the Democrats made a hard fight against the Maine congressional tick et, Cannon stumped the state in be half of the. Republicans. talk, Chaloner appeared to be una ble to suppress a smile. "It's the way such things go," he remarked sagely. "I warned Bob to beware of alimony and keep enough to livo on, for usually, when n song bird finishes, there isn't much left. 'In this caso, of course, it really Is nono of ray business. The woman Is Bob's wife and not mine. I've had troubles of my own. Not being mar ried to a songbird, naturally I can't see the end of this affair. From n lawyer's standpoint I should say howover, that the reported pre-nup-tlal agreement between Bob and Mmo. Cavallerl is not ironclad. I believe he can get the greater part of his fortune back. "When I studied tho beautiful faco of Mme. Cavallerl In tho pic tures that came to me, I nrrived at tho conc'us'on that she was a siren. "I couldn't help but recall Kip ling's verses about 'A Fool There Was.' "But of course I can't use the word fool in this case because tlw bible forbids calling one's brother u fool. I can't do it. I would prefer to call Bob a jackass. "Mmo Cavallorl is a wonderful woman. She has a clear face, lan guorous eyes and a voluptuous body, whoso sinuous curves fasten them selves Into ono's memory nnd fire the beholder's heart with a depth of passion difficult to understand, while she herself, behind that beau tiful faco-curtaln, may be coldly cal culating. "Mmo. Cavallerl deserves to bo ranked among the great cruelly great and greatly cruel women of history. "I bellevo Bob loved her and that he still is in love with her. He is expressing a hypnotic love for a songbird who succeeded In trapping him. I am sorry he had to bp hold up to tho world In this light but he knows I foretold the truth."

Tomorrow will bo Salem Day at tho Oregon State Fair, and it is expected that tho biggest crowd in tho history of the instl- tutlon will be in attendance up- on that day.

SUPREME COURT HAAWH DOWN DECISIONS When the laws of state provldo that the seal of the court must be at tached to any document emanating therefrom, the absence of such seal is fatal to the legality of the, docu ment. Under such ruling the Oregon su preme court this morning holds that the writ of attachment to a tract of 1G0 acres of land in Douglas county, in satisfaction of judgment against said premises is void, because it did not bear the seal of the court, and re. versed the decision of Judge Hamil. ton, of the circuit court for Douglas county, in the case of Frank E.

Olympln, Wash., Sept. 13. With the Washington state-wide primaries In prpgress today, Insurgents are claiming that Congressman Miles Poindexter, progressive, will win tho United Stntes senatorial endorse ment over Thomas Burko, regular, of Seattle, by 20,000 votes. James Ash ton, regular, of Tacoma, has made a hard fight, but it Is conceded that he probably will not poll two-thirds tho vote of either Burke or Poindexter, The1 Burko managers predict that tho Seattle man will win by a plurality of 3843. Polndoxter's mnnagers today asserted that a late canvass of King county indicates that the Spokano man will carry tho county, which is Burko's home, by 2000 votes, and likewise tho majority of tho coun ties, including four big coast coun ties, where tho bulk of tho popula tion is concentrated. Dispatches from all parts of the Btato today aro to the effect that the weather is ideal. This probably means that a heavy vote will bo cast before the ballot boxes are closed to night. Thero aro approximately 100,- 000 Republicans registered through out the state, Little interest Js being taken In the Democratic primaries. Tho Republi can primaries, howover, is of nation al importance, owing to tho activity of the national administration forces, led by President Taft, to concontrato the regulars on one candidate with a view of beating Poindexter. Ex-Senator John L. Wilson, who for a time was a bitter opponent of Burko for tho endorsement, was pre vailed upon to withdraw at 1 alt's so licitation, 11 days ago.

General Ashton, of Tacoma, howev er, refused to withdraw. Instead ho began to campaign moro activoly In Southern Washington. As a result of his efforts, politicians predict that Ashton has badly spilt the regular vote, and has given Poindexter an im mediate advantage over both Ashton and Burke. When tho polls opened at 11 o'clock this forenoon long lines of voters stood before the booths in all the largo cities of tho state, according to dispatches received hero this after noon. At Seattle straw ballots, taken in tho vicinity of the principal polling places, Indicated that Poindexter was capturing an average of 1 votes to Burke's ono. Ashton was not In tho running. At Tacoma Ideal weather brought out a heavy vote for Poindexter and Ashton, with d light vote for Burke. At Spokano Poindexter seemingly is leadipg over Burko. At Bellingham It was predicted' that Poindoxter- would receive practically 70 per cent of tho total Republican vote. Forest flres In Whatcom county, however, caused light voting in the county outside of Bellingham.
