Tainted money" has become an
issue in the state political campaign
in Nebraska, and two of the candi-
dates for regents of the state univers-
ity have signed statements that If
elected they would advocate return
ing to John D. Rockefeller $66,000
which he gave last year for temple
for the religious societies of the uni
yersity. It Is difficult to understand
how such a pledge should commend
them to the intelligent voters OF the
state. The propriety of Chancellor
Andrews soliciting Rockefeller for
contributions for the university may
be questioned, but the gift itself has
been of valuable assistance to
worthy institution and to cripple the
university now by handing back the
money would seem to be an act Of
folly.

has been so me disposition to bury the
hatchet, but In Multnomah the old
feud Is as bitter as ever. Here it was
well known that Jack Matthews and
Frank Baker, the two men most de-
tested by the Simon republicans, were
the prime movers in the scheme for
peece conference, which was looked
on as nothing more than an effort to
reestahlish the old Mitchell machine.
Wallace McCamant was the only
one of Senator Simon's old lieutenants
who took any part in the peace con-
ference, all of his former comrades
being conspicuous by their absence.
"What can the Mitchell faction
offer us?n was the common remark
among them.
"Their leaders are all discredited
and their organization is wreck. If
they have chestnuts to pull out Of the
fire, we will not be their catspaw.
Frank Bakers personal interest in
maintaining his hold on republican
politics is we'll understood. He owns
the printing plant in the state print
er's Office and derives from it a sub
stantial yearly revenue. He is credit
ed also with receiving fat slice Of
the state printers handsome profits
and is therefore deeply interested in
naming the next incumbent Of the
Office. According to the gossip that il
current among the politicians, Bakers
chief object in his effort to reunite the
factions was to be able to name the
next republican nominee for state
printer. thereby insuring the continu-
ance of the revenue which he now en-
joys.
Some of the aspirants for other state
offices who reside in this county have
been regarding Bakers movements
with jealous eyes. They suspect him
of desire to sacrifice all candidates
from Multnomah county except his
own choice for state printer.
Baker would gladly give every
other place on the ticket to the outside
counties If he could only name the
state printer" said one prominent
republican who attended the peace
conference. HE wants to be able to
compel every candidate in this county
to come to him for support, and then
he would throw them all down and
say to the outside counties, 'Multno-
nah wants nothing but the state
printer; give us that and you can take
the rest. ="
The original scheme, of which the
peace conference was but a feature,
was to call convention next spring
in advance of the primaries and make
up slate to be ratified by the voters
in the primary election. So much
opposition developed. however, to this
suggestion that it was reluctantly
abandoned. This was peculiarly un-
fortunate for Baker, for the difficulty
of programing the ticket is vastly
increased when the nominations are
made by the voters and not by the
bosses. Nevertheless, he Is said to be
still hopeful that the republicans of
Oregon will show a proper regard for
his private interests when the nomin-
ations are made.

Frank Bakers harmony meeting"

day seems to have been very well at
tended by one wing of the party. The
other faction was represented by one
man, Wallace McCamant. From in
ference it may be concluded that Mr..
McCamant was in attendance at the
meeting either to satisfy his curiosity
or to keep tab on the doings of the
other fellows. From the way things
have turned out the harmony meeting
was fizzle and the factional strife re
mains much the same as before the
meeting 1t will take more than one
wing of the republican party in Ore

from Frank Bakers Republican peace
