Byers Also Looking Longingly Towards State's Delegating in Congress. Hot foot as In days of yore, when seek ers of Federal Jobs used to chase after the favor of Oregon's Senators and Rep resentatives In Congress, three or four as pirants for the Job of Surveyor-General of this state are camping on the trail of Senator Fulton and Representatives Haw ley and Ellis, and keeping Uncle Sam's malls laden with missives for Senator Bourne in Washington. The position pays $2000 a year and might be made to yield 12500, since the law fixes the pay at the latter sum. Congress, how aver has been appropriating only S2000. -The present incumbent John D. Daly, finished his four-year term last April. Four aspirants for his shoes have come out of the woods, as follows: Thomas M. Hurlburt, of Portland, now employed In the City Engineer's office, belLbsent from duties connected with tllTnterior Department on a six months' furlough; examiner of surverys for the Interior Department, having worked In that capacity about 10 years In most of the Western states: said to have wider knowledge of the field and office duties of the Surveyor-General than any other aspirant and to be preferred by Land Of fice authorities. These Are Also Willing. G. A. Westgate, of Albany, president of the state Republican committee, formerly a candidate for the office of Collector of Customs, won by P. S. Malcolm. Joseph T. Lee. of Portland, formerly In charge of the Oregon penitentiary, un der Governor Geer. William H. Byers, of Salem, formerly a favorite of Blnger Hermann's, State Printer and Surveyor-General under President Harrison. All these gentlemen have been stimt lated to renewed activity by the seem ingly authentlo report that Commissioner Balllnger wants new Surveyor ap pointed, now that Mr. Daly's term has ended. They are posting after Oregon's National lawmakers right vigorously, be cause they understand that President Roosevelt is willing again to act on the recommendation of Oregon's Senators and Representatives. Bourne May Help Westgate. If the preference of Land Office au thorities shall rule with the President, Hurlburt will be the strongest cancftdate, on account of his familiarity with tie affairs of the office. But it has not been revealed whether Senator Bourne Is willing to see him appointed. Bourne desires to do something for Westgate, 'Who .as State chairman has done good service to the Republican party, but It Is doubtful If the Interior Department would be willing to see him put In front of Hurlburt. An office, which Westgate could fill creditably la that of Collector of Inter nal Revenue, for which he Is frequently mentioned. Colonel D. M. .Dunne, has held that office nine years and has en tered upon the tenth. He w,as ap pointed In March, 1SH8, through Senator McBrlde; continued In office in March, 1902, through Senator Mitchell; and" a year ago last March began his third term. This office pays between $3000 and $4000 a year almost twice the salary of Surveyor-General. Rowland, Chief 'Deputy to the Surveyor-General, several months ago said to desire the office, announces that he is not a candidate for the position and does not want It. GROCERS' OUTING TODAY Merchants Hold Seventh Annual Picnic at Bonneville. The seventh annual picnic of the Retail Grocers' Association will be held today at Bonneville. This morning at 9 o'clock a special train, carrying the merchants snd their clerks with their wives, will leave the Union .Depot. It is expected that the outing will be the largest the association haa ever held. A programme of athletic events has been arranged, and everything from a baseball game to a fat men's race Is on the list of sports for the day. Foot racing will be made a specialty. The ball game between the grocers and the salesmen will be the most Im portant event of the afternoon. As an Inducement for good playing, a big din ner in one of Portland's best cafes will be given the winners. There will be a tug-of-war match with a stock of groceries, large enough to last an average fajnlly for a month, as a prize. An egg race will be a special evtent for the grocers' wives. A pie-eating contest will be provided for the small boys and a special prize offered for this event. Then there will be a prize for the best looking woman on the grounds, and another for the couple win ning the prize waltz. The last but not the least will be the public wedding, that is if Secretary Mal ley can secure a couple willing to be married. A month's supply -of groceries and various household necessities are of fered as a dowry to the couple, but so far, no engaged couple has accepted the offer. In case any loving couple should come forward. Justice Olsen, of the East Side Justice Court, has signified his will ingness to tie the knot, gratis. The train will leave Bonneville at 6 P.

He sold good rental property In New York City for $8100 to purchase 80 lots in the suburbs at the Bowery. His friends laughed at him for giving up "nis in come for non-productive lots. All the same he continued buying, placing all his earnings in what then seemed worthless outside property. In a few years he became wealthy. Moral The Astor heirs hold today the world's rec ord In valuable real estate. The same thin will be repented lm the purchase of lauda between the rivers. This more than beautiful table land, having a gradual slope toward both rivers, above 11 pons I hie floods, thereby making it the most perfect natural site for a city In the world.
