Arthur, Representative from the Third
Congressional district of Oregon, who
was renominated on the Republican
ticket in Yesterdays primaries. ap-
parently faces the hardest fight Of his
political career in the election next
November. His Democratic opponent
will be Elton Watkins, formerly
United States Attorney at Portland
and exceedingly popular in Multnomah
county, which comprises the Third
district.
Mr.. McArthur's three Republican
opponents to-day polled 27,074 votes.
Macarthur drew 1902 votes, while
Franklin Korell polled 14,62S and Mau-
rice Z. Crumpacker 1O.777. Sanfield
Mcdonald, running on a beer and wine
platform, drew 2.299. Crumpacker and
Korell both ex-service men, split the
vote, which unquestionably accounts
for McArthur's winning.
The race between Gov. Ben w. Olcott
and Charles Hall for the Republican
nomination was still in doubt tonight,
with Hall leading by 2s9 votes. The
fight was bitter on account OF an anti
Catholic move headed by the ku klux

county. sOlcott lost votes, some or MS

from their favorites. They saw the
hopelessness of their own candidates and
threw their support to Hall.
Ralph Williams, stand-patter Republi-

TO his home in London. where he will
await the opening of the international

Political circles attach great mystery
to Mr.. Morgan's visit here before he
goes 10 Paris and predict a definite
settlement of the reparation question is
more likely now than at any time since
the signing OF the Versailles treaty.
In Mr.. Morgan, politicians and bankers
see America emerging from her aloof-

in European affairs.
Otto III. Kahn. who also came on the
Olympic, said that Mr.. Morgan. Sir Felix
