Chairman Max Plans Aggres-
 siVs antEady Campaign
GOOD SPEAKERS 10 60 WEST
Kern Gore and Bell Will Take the stump In the Pacific Coast Region While Bryanas Tour
 ing the East

1 chicago, September 9.--With the ob . | jet of perfecting an organization and )developing plans for an aggressive meeting of the national committeeman and state chairmen of California Ore gon and Washington has been calle by National Chairman Mack to meet in Portland, Ore, on September 16. The call was issued today following a con- ference of MT. Mack and National Com . mitteeman M. A. Miller of Oregon. MT. Mack Is convinced from the reports which were made at the national com an excellent chance of bringing the Pacific coast states into the democratic column if fight is made.
 Vice Presidential Candidate John w. Kern is expected to make several speeches west of the Rocky mountains, and Senator Gore of Oklahoma and Theodore A. Bell, who was the per .manent chairman of the Denver con vention. will also make speeches in the far western territory While no de- finite announcement has been made at headquarters, it is generally believed by the national committeeman here that the latter part of October will find Mir. Bryan campaigning along the Pacific.
 National Committeeman Miller said today after his conference with 4ar. Mack; Conditions are highly favorable to the democracy in the Pacific coast states and believe MT. Bryan will get relatively larger per cent. of the re- publican vote in those states than in any others of like population in the country
 Chairman Mack announced tonight that Mr Bryan's plan in the east had uasergone change, and that instead of speaking in Wilmington, Del, on September 15, MT. Bryan would speak that day in Jersey City and in Whining ton on September IF.
 MT. Bryan's date for New York city has also been advanced from Septem- Der IT to September IS. Senator Cul- person, chairman of the advisory com mittee, left today for New York to take up his work in the eastern headquar- ters. Senator Culberson said before his departure that he believed the sentiment of the country Is decidedly with the democracy and that the fight from now on is to maintain and hold this advant- age.
 State Senator Thomas F. Grady of New York city, was a visitor at head quarters tonight, and told the national committeeman that Norman E. Mack was the strongest man the democrats could nominate for governor in the Elm pire state. Senator Grady is now en route home after a two months trip in the west, where he said the senti- ment for MT. Bryan was very strong.

 The fourth brought in a report which was passed by the house and rejected by the senate. The members of the house show a disposition to put upon the upper body the burden of delay.
 If Governor Smith does not approve of an adjournment sine die he may call the members to meet again imriiedfately, or may leave the matter to an extra session of the new legislature to be elected in October.

Post keeping a record each time the plane passed the starting point. As the flight continued Mfr. Wright increased the size of the circles. The biggest circles were about the limits of mile track.
 There was no way to estimate the dis tance flown, for the rounds expanded and contracted at the will Of the operator. The average probably was a little less than a mile and the total number was 57.
 At the close of the flight the machine came down as gently as a steamer com ing to dock Half around away from the starting point it could be seen that the operator intended to descend. The bird drfted lower than on the previous round and as he came around toward the derrick it was apparent the engine had been cut out and was dying down. She sailed on an almost even keel close to the point from which she had risen and then the operator with a little twist threw the forward planes into the air and checked the drift of the machine. She bobbed with little sort of curtsey and settled on the grass. sliding not mora than six ar sAvan taet

LlLLEY
 GETS THE NOMINATION

Frank B. Weeks of Middleton for lieu tenant governor
 The nominees for secretary, comptroller and treasurer are the present officials.
 The big contest was that between Con- eressman Lilley, who brought about the inquiry into the Electric Boat company before a congressional committee last spring. and Lieutenant Governor Lake in Hartford. The entire organization lined up behind the former ia fulfilment of a pledge given two years ago. MT. Lake went down to defeat by a three to one vote. Governor Woodruff, who was desirous of being renominated on his record of business administration for the past two years did not prove factor isl the contest. The platform adopted was short, but covered both national and state matters.

He ap- pointed an examiner to take testimony. gave each side one week and announced his own willingness to sit in the case after the facts shall have been ascer- tained.

He made an earnest plea against the postponement of the case. The taking of testimony will be begun next Friday.

rank Hitchcock Makes Decis-
 ion Against ScherT
SOME DOUBT ABOUT RESULT
Swisher Himself Seems to Think That Scherr Forces Will Fight Him anu Cause Weakness to the
 National Ticket.

New York. September s.-The involved political situation in West Virginia. where the factions led respectively by Arnold Scherr, now serving a second term as auditor, and Charles R. Swsher secre- tary of state, each claiming recognition as the only regular and authorized repre- sentstives of the regular republican or ganization, was cleared to day by the rec ognition as regular the convention pre- sided over by Congressman Joseph H. Gaines. leader of the Swisher forces. The fight had been carried up to Frank H. Hitchcock of the national republican com- mittee, who appointed National Commit teemen W. L. Ward, T. c. Dupont and Charles F. Brooker a subcommittee to hear both sides ad pass on the respec- tive merits of the claims advanced. Tonight the subcommittee reported as follows
 After a careful investigation and hear ing, at which both sides received all the time they asked for, we find that the con vention presided over by the Hon. Joseph H. Gaines was regular, and that the re- publican state committee of which MT. S.. V. Matthews Is chairman, elected at that convention, is the regular republican state committee of West Virginia.

Findino Is Approved.

Chairman Hitchcock has approved the finding of the subcommittee
 fhis settles the disputed point as to which of the two conventions, held on July and g, was authorized. The Scherr party, it will be recalled, bolted an hour before the calling to order of the con- vention and put in the field a ticket of its own in opposition to that headed by Swisher for governor. This ticket now finos itself without an official label and must either be withdra wn or else run in- dependently and in opposition to the tick ct now indorsed as regular.
 Senator Stephen B. Elkins of West Vir- ginia, who was seen tonight, could not be made to say what effect the recogni- tion of the Swisher faction by the na- tional committee would have on the fu- ture attitude of the Scherr party
 AS far as the rank and file of the party is concerned" said he the action of the national committee in recognizing the convention presided over by Congress- man Gaines regular removes whatever doubts may have existed as to the legit- imacy of the ticket nominated by that convention. It clears the committee headed by MT. Matthews of the fraud

 Swisher Is In Doubt.
 MT. Swisher, when questioned to the effect which the action of the national committee would have on his opponents, was reluctant to give his opinion. He was gratifled that the legitimacy of the convention nominating him had been off, cially recognized, but would not say whether, In his opinion, his adyersaries would accept the verdict and retire from the field He admitted the possibility that the Scherr faction would oppose him at the polls with a Lincoln repub- lican ticket His position, however. had been materially strengthened. he felt by the recognition of Messrs. Matthews and Gaines.
 Chairman Hitchcock said tonight thar he had been assured that, irrespective or any action that might be taken by the Scherr faction In the matter, 1t was abso- h,tey certain that but one set of presi- dential electors would be nominated in West Virginia. so that the fight, if one he made. will affect only the state offices to be filled, and will in no way imperi. tbe national ticket The chairman added that the committee counted upon the loy- altv of West Virginia republicans to pro feet in every way the interests or the national candidate and he had every reason to believe that such protecuoh would be accorded

FOREST FIRES ARE
 STILL SERIOUS

Duluth, Minn. September 9.-Forest fires are still doing great damage. The heavily timbered Isle Royale in Lake Superior was ablaze today and hundreds of campers were in jeopardy.
 Fires have also broken out near Du- luth and at Lester Park, suburb. The burning bush this afternoon threatened great damage.
 A dispatch from Menominee, Mich, says: .ss
 The car shops of the Wisconsin and Michigan railroad at Peshtigo were burned today by fire which swept in from the woods and is now endangering the city of Peshtigo. The loss to the railroad is estimated at S0,000. No rain has fallen in this section for three months. Con- ditions are similar to those of 1871 when the city of Peshtigo was nearly oblt- erated.
 Reports from the country around Ma rinette are that forest and brush fires are raging. Farm houses near Coleman and Grover have been destroyed.
 Along the Soo railroad the fires are menacing and it is predicted that unless rains come soon there will be huge prop erty losses. The town of Dunbar is sur rounded by fire. Many of the cranberry marshes have been burned and the en- tire crops destroyed.
 A dispatch from Winnipeg, Manitoba, says a Canadian Pacific express locomo- tive on the Lake Superior division broke through bridge at Winston, east of Port Arthur, today and fell 30 feet to the bottom of a ravine. The bridge had been burned by bush fires.
