Portland. Ore., June 2S. The forty
sixth Imperial session of the Mystlo Or
der of the Hhrine will settle down to
routine business here today In contrsst
with the hilarious festivities thsf prs
valled last night. The principal fea
ture of today's session will be the con

orphans and crippled children. The Idea
Is accredited to Imperial Potentate W.
Freeland Kendrlck, of Philadelphia.
The Bhriners' oonclave today will also
take under consideration applications
for charters creating new temples
throughout the country. These appli
cations have been up for investigation
before officers of the Imperial council
for aome time, and their reports will
be rendered today. Election of Imperial
oouncll officers is also scheduled for this

tion expected to develop Is for the of
fice of outer guard. The higher officials
ordinarily rise by succession.

DELEGATES ALL AT SEA
Aside From Two-Thirds Rule,
the problem of Nominee
Proves Worrying1.
(BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS.)
Ban Francisco, June It. (I. N. 8.)
A chicken with its hend cut off, flop,
ping around In the backyurd, knows
exactly where It Is going, compared to
the hosts of democracy gathering here
to select their candidate for the presi
dency and build their platform.
With a two-thirds vote necesaary for
a nomination, Instead of only a ma
jority, as with the republicans, the
chaos of Chicago preconventlon days
has descended upon Ban Francisco, bag
and baggngc. leaving the arriving dele
gates confused and confounded.
.William Jennings Bryan, It is claimed
by some, with his "dry" backing can
prevent the nomination of anybody who
doesn't suit him. It will take but 805
votes a third, plus one, of the total of
1,091 delegates to do this. .
But. warn the friends or Governor
Edward I. Kdwards, of New Jersey, do
not overlook the -wets.- iney win
control at least 805 votes In the con
ventton, It Is asserted, and In their turn
can prevent the nomination of any can
didate unfavorable to them.
Senator Robert L. Owen, of Okla
homa, will form a coalition with Wil
liam Jennings Bryan and precipitate a
rough-and-tumble opposition the mo
ment the cohorts of the administration
insist upon an out and out ratification
of the league of nations plnnk.
And with not a few delegates behind
them, many believe this combination
will be able to rally more than a third
of the delegates to their side, thus
blocking the selection of a Wiluonlan
nominee.
Two-Thlrds Rule.
Aside from the two-thirds rule, now
unusually bothersome to the democrats,
the problem of a nominee is worrying
them. They are every bit as hay as
to their choice of a standard bearer as
were the republicans In Chicago.
Counting. William O. McAdoo and
President Wilson and no list of demo
crat lo presidential possibilities is con
sidered by the party men now here to
be complete without the names of
both there are pretty nearly a score
of candiadtes, In, the open or potential,
already under consideration.
Alphabetically there are Bryan. Cox.
Clark, Cumminga, Davis, Kdwards,
Glass. Hitchcock, McAdoo, Marshall,
Meredith, Owen, Palmer, Payne, Sim
mons and Wilson, to name those most
frequently mentioned here.
McAdoo Boom.
The McAdoo boom has refused to
stay dead. Its corpse persists In com
ing back to life. Finished, dead and
buried though McAdoo himself Insists
his boom must be considered, the man
agers of other candidates now here
drumming up support for their men
keep on talking McAdoo. In the same
breath they treat him as a dead one
ar.d vet as one still to be watched.
"McAdoo," they say, "is entirely out
of the race: whatever support he ever
had is now gone, spilt up among the
other candidates. But if McAdoo's name
Is presented to the convention "
Then follows a long argument on wny
MeAilnn can not win. tirovlng himself
kfeared by the other aspirants.
The general oenei nere, lour nji
since the McAdoo telegram, is that Mo.
Adoo's name will ! presented lo the
democratic convention here and will be
voted on. As to what will happen then
opinion II divided.
Pome declare thst after the first bal
lot or two, when McAdoo will receive
a complimentary and scattering vole,
his name will disappear. Others say
along about the eighth ballot or so Mu
Adoo will be put across with a rush
Just as Benator Harding was In Chi
cago. Clever piece of political maneu
veringthat Is what the latter school
rails McAdoo's telegram refusing to
consent to his being placed In nomina
tion. Whichever Is right, the delegates now
arriving admit they are greatly In
trigued. In the confusion thus created
some profess to see an attempt of the
party bossea to steam roll the conven
tion: others discredit this.
"Anv attempt to control this conven
tion," Senator Robert U. Owen, himself
a candidate, declared, "would react. It
would prove a boomerang. No such
attempt will be nisde."
CAPT. PECK OPENS UP
STATE HEADQUARTERS
Capt. Thomas F. Peck, who an
nounced Saturday his candidacy for the
rfpubllcan nomination for governor,
has opened headquarters In Knoxvuie.
Plans for his campaign are practically
complete.
Nine petitions In behalf of Capt.
Peck are In the hands of Hal Clements,
chairman of the state executive com
mittee, and Peck saya he Intends to
make a flnlah fight. "
In regard to the political situation
So far as the governorship Is concerned,
Capt. Peck gave' out the following In
terview In Knoxville this week:
"I believe that a republican candi
date can be elected because of the dis
satisfaction which is broadcast through,
out the state on account of Gov. Rob.
erts' public utilities measures, the at
titude of labor toward him and par
ticularly because of the injection ol
national policies and Issues In the race
by means of his sttltude toward Sen
ator John K. Shields."
In spesking of his own candldaoy.
Capt. Peck stated that he had never
boen a candidate tor public office be
fore. He fathered the demonstration
train Idea which' proved such a suc
cessful means of promoting Interest In
things agricultural when he was com
missioner of sgrloulture under the
Hooper administration. Though those
who are fostering his candidacy arc
drawn from all olaaues, Cant. Peck be
lieves that the farmers and agricultur
ists are particularly warm In their ad
vocacy of his race.
To the Pubiio.
T Just want to say that we keep a
bottle of Chamberlain Cello and Diar
rhoea Remedy on hand all the time, and
find It excellent for bowel trouble."
