If tho statements made by Salem peo
ple who know Landon are true, the
present mayor is an an old-time Orego
nian. He came to the United States
whon ho was but six years old, it
said, and his father took out the neces
sary naturalization papers to make his
lu Id re n citizens. Landon has always
taken an active part in politics in this
state, it Is said, and he has acquired
considerable wealth In Woodburn and
vicinity. Ho has cast many votos in
this stto; acted in official capacities
and always taken an interest in politics
for years.
Landon was eloc.tcd by a largo ma
jority and while ho was not oxnetly a
dry" candidate, tho "dry" element
in Woodbun backed him Btrongly, ac
cording to residents of that city who
are In Salem today. On the othor hand
tho plaintiff in this suit is opposed to
prohibition.
Although it is claimed Indon's fath
er took out naturalization papers whon
ho first enme to this country, they can
not bo found, according to tho mayor's
Niipimrters, and as tho elder Landon is
now dead, Ijindon, Jr., Is unulilo to de

UNITED FBESS LEASED WIBE.
Washington, Nov. 12. Compromise
in Mexico was in the air today. Presi
dent Wilson was trying to induce Pres
ident Huerta and General Carranza, the
rebel leader, to agree on a mutually sat
isfoctory man to succeed Huerta and
continue os provisional president until
a fair election can be held. Administra
tion officials thought there was a
chance of success. The American war
ships Louisiana and Wheeling took
most of the American residents of Tux
pam, but it was stated they were not
in much danger.
William Bayard Hale, supposedly un
officially representing President Wil
son, conferred with General Carranza,
at NogaleB, Ariz., but their conversa
tion was kept secret.
No one was able to tell what was said
at a meeting of President Huerta and
his cabinet last night, but there were
rumors that Huerta was weakening.
Rebels claimed to have captured sev
eral towns south of Piedras Negras.
The Japanese cruiser Idzumo was or
dered to Mexican waters.
A financial panic threatened in Mex
ico City.

The local University of Oregon ref
erendum committee fee in a great
measure that the splendid results of our
campaign, as shown by the vote on
Tuesday, are due to the support given
the university measures by the press of
the state. There is no factor so potent
as the newspaper for moulding and In
fluencing public opinion, and we be
lieve the fact that the press of the
state, with but fow exceptions, were on
the sido of the university in the cam
paign, influenced hundreds of voters
the right way on election day.
We, therefore, feel that we ought to
show to the men at the bead of the
newspapers of. the state, who were
friendly to the university, some meas
ure of appreciation and grateful ac
knowledgement of the splendid services
they rendered the state by standing
for the cause of education.
It is in this spirit that I am in
structed, as the secretary, to send to
you a message of grateful appreciation
for all that you did to help us win the
victory on Tuesday. We beg you to be
