ASSEMBLY'S FOES ARE lii DUE Mil Republican Faction's Hopes of Electing Governor Get More Dismal. VOTE WILL BE SPLIT UP 'lender Proprtt Are Plawl by En. Ihasiaols on Candidacy or Judge nimlck Bourn People Cast About In All Direction. Hop of the anti-assembiy Repub licans cf electing a Governor are In a dismal atate. The fact la admitted even by anti-assembly leaders. The raging; lueatlon In the anti-fold has become "What are. we coin to do about It?" That Aetlna- Hovernor Bowerman now haa tie Republican nomination In Ms vest pochoi is ronceded In the anil .amp. For the activity of anti-assembly candidates for Governor, by a srrans paradox. are admittedly strengthening Mr. Fowerman'a chances. I'olonel K. Hofr la touring the state by auto pleklna up rotes, while Jude T'lmlck and Albert Abraham are dotna: the same thin. Neither Is developing trenath enouah. however, to be con sidered a factor In the primary race, and. since tie recular Republicans will stand together almot to a man, the work of the three anti-assembly can didates serves merely to spilt up the ote of their faction and establish Mr. lowerman's chances on the firm rock of certainty. Bourne Men Perplexed. Hence, the question "What are we coins: to do about It?" Is proving un usually perplexlnc. particularly to the followers of Jonathan Bourne. Bourne needs one of his own clan In the Gov ernor's chair In order to ftarnrr nrrenirfh therefrom two years hence, ahen he must fight for Ms own offi cial neck. Some alender hopes are yet based on I'tmlck- To be prepared for the fu ture trie Bourne element Is casting about In many direction. Should Oswald West gain the Demo cratic nomination, the sledding would be smooth. But there lsn"t any cer tainty that West will get the Demo-,-ratb- nomination. In fact, followers of Jefferson Myers are now declaring that a canvas of the state gives their man s clear lead. Mr. Myers is very busy touring the state In his own behalf. So. with Mr. Myers as the Demo cratic nominee and Mr. Bowerman as t iie Republican choice, the Bourne ele ment, which dominates to a large de cree the anti-assembly faction, would be in a dilemma Indeed. The only re course will be an Independent Repub lican candidate. Ren Selling in .Mind. Ken Selling Is held In mind by many of the antl follower. They tried hard to get Mm Into the fight before the primaries, but he wanted a clear field and all efforts to give him a clear field met with failure. "What's the matter with W. S. f'Ren?" several of tiie clan are asking. "The people have been taking his meas ures, why wouldn't they take him?" The U'Ren suggestion hasn't yet aroused unstinted enthusiasm. Yet It is possible. If conditions shape them selves against the antt-assemblyltes at the primaries, that f'Ren will be railed Into the rare as an Independent. It is admitted by anti-assembly men t'.iat the nomination of Mr. Bowerman. on the one hand, and of Mr. Myers on the other, will throw them into a sad dilemma.

VILLA AVENUE OPENED Out of SI 0.000 Assessment Only $350 I Delinquent. Villa avenue is now practically opened feet wide between EH Six tieth and Meridian streets, and all that remains Is for the City Council to make the official announcement. At the sale of property for delinquent assessments for the opening Thursday all the prop erty was sold, and the money for the opening of the street was paid In. At the Ut moment there waa only about lii" delinquent out of a total assess ment of I10.000. At the next meeting of the Council the sale will be con firmed and the street declared opened. A purse of money has been raised by citisens of Montavlila to pay for all delinquent assessments In ca.-e the property was not bid In. but they did not get the opportunity. The people sre satisfied with the result. The next step will be to obtain the widening be tween East Sixtieth street and the east side of Laurelhurst. for which pro ceedings are now under way. Slowly nd steadily the movement to mske an SO. foot highways between the west side of I-aurelhurst and Falrvlew Is advanc 'ng to a successful conclusion. FIRE IN HOTEL MYSTIFIES M Hunger Start Rime In Redding. Policeman Save House. mysterious attempt to destroy by fire the ri.llllps Hotel, at Fifth and Burnside street, was ..lscovered by the proprietor and frustrated Just In time, early yesterday morning. Two men giving the names William Jordan and James Walsh, secured a room In de hotel Saturday night. Early yesterday morning the rroprlrtor saw one of them leave hurriedly. His suspicions were roused and he vent to the room, to find It deserted and the bed sMsxe The bedding was In a heap on the floor and .rhen It was stirred it bn-st Into flame. The. house, was aroused ar tfea Mr extinguished after It had completely ruined the furnishing of the room. There was great excitement among the lodgers, most of whom re moved their effect from the houire. The proprietor appealed to the police to find the two men who are believed to be responsible. The residence of W. W. Lynn. 1151 East Main street, waa destroyed by fire of unknown origin at 2 o'clock yesterday morning, patrolman I-assell arrived soon after the alarm was turned In. and. assisted by the neighbors, car ried out a piano and several other pieces of furniture. The house was not occupied, the I.ynn family having gone to Ellsworth. Wash., seve ! weeks ago. Patrolman Butler probably prevented a serious loss by fire at East Fifteenth and Broadway streets yesterday morn ing, by carrying buckets of water and extinguishing a threatening grass fire. Butler saw a blaze making strong headway in the tall grass on a vacant lot. He borrowed a bucket from a neighboring house and lugged water until the fire wa extinguished It bad crept within a short distance of a resi dence when the officer discovered It. Slight damage waa done to a feed store and stable at S Baker street, at 3:50 o'clock yesterdsy morning, by a cigarette carelessly thrown Into some loose hay. The flames ran up the out side of the building, but were extin guished before much damage was done to the Interior. 6RESHAM TO HAVE HUB GRANGE MAKES PLANS FOR AX XCAL EXPOSITION.

David Stein. Fruit Dealer, Takes Two Fake Dollars Calls Offi cer on Third One Man Held. When you accept a silver dollar In change, give it a thorough trial by ring ing It on the counter, or follow the time honored method of biting the coin, for the circulator of the leaden substitute Is abroad In the land and will "git you If you don't watch out." Complaints of bad money In circulation have been frequent of late, and a cap ture made Saturday night by Police Ser geant Golt has cut off one source of the trouble. The police officer was Informed by David Stein, a fruit dealer at Sec ond and Couch streets, that three lead dollars bad been passed upon him in a short space of time. Two men were In on the Job. One of them, who was arrested, gave the. name of Charles F. Bowers. He had approached Stein's fruit stand early In the evening, purchased S cents' worth or fruit and offered a dollar, which the desler accepted and soon after found defective. The purchaser had made a quick disappearance. He appears to have considered Stein an easy mark, however, for later In the evening he re appeared, again bought a small (isntlty of fruit and offered another dollar. Stein rang It and It gave forth a dull aound that betrayed It as lead. The dealer called Sergeant Colts, who arrested Bowers. The prisoner admitted the second offense, but denied the first. Stein Is positive, however, that Bowers gave Mm two of the bad dollars. The third waa given him under the ssme cir cumstances by an elderly man who has not been found. Bowers la held on a technical charge and probably will be turned over to the Federal authorities. CHARTER BEING REVISED Mllwankle Desires to Avail Itself of Bonding Act Provisions. A Joint committee from the Mil waukle Commercial Club and the Coun cil has been appointed to revise the charter of the city the amendments to be submitted to a vote of the people at the regular city election December 1. The main feature of the revision will be an amendment making It pos sible for property owners to avail themselves of the Bancroft bonding act In sewer and street work. It was sup posed that provision had been made so that the act would benefit property owners, but when a 120.000 contract mas let for hard-surface pavement on Main street it was dlcovered that the charter did not contain the bonding act. Street Improvement costing more than JnO.ftoO are involved. Generally the people favor the adop tion of the bonding act. and it Is thought It will carry when submitted to a vote.

To Prevent Slippery Streets Object of Society. AMBULANCE IS ASSURED Rigid Examination Is Being Made of All Poultry Shipments Many Cat Pie of Mange Driv ers Treat Horse Better. Among the practical plans for the ad vancment of the work of the Oregon Humane Society In Portland la the adoption of a plan to relieve the slip pery condition of the hard-surface mreet pavements. Kspeclally during ft,, n-nt uunn. which Will BOOll Set ill. do draft teams suffer from not being able to maintain a foot grip on the streets. Even with light loads, the society finds that the horses are constantly be ing thrown to the ground, suffering broken or bruised legs In many In stances, and In others the team-owners sssert that the animals becomevalue les because of having learned the dan cer and refusing to pull their loads. The Humane Society has a special com mittee at work on plana for remedying the condition, and will probably be able to suggest something deflnl:- within a few weens. The animal ambulance for use ut ncencs of accidents to dumb brutes is . it. advent In Portland Imme diately. Mrs. Frank W. Swanton. E. J. Jaeger and Mrs. i: iiarnaon been appointed a special committee to purchase the vehicle. The ambulance for animals has become a necessity in the larger cities. Now that "fryln chickens" are be ginning to arrive jn the markets In greatly increased quantities, dealers in both the wholesale and retail districts are to be subjected to a more rigid en forcement of sanitary conditions In the care of poultry. Chickens need air. light and room in being transported. In order to reach the markets In the bei t condition. Police Sergeant E. L. Crate, humane officer, has been Instructed arrest any dealer who ships or receives poultry in unsanitary or "rickety" coops. August was a very busy month for the humane officer, who made an in vestigation of the epidemic of mange among cats. Numbers of the pets were killed In an effort to get rid of the disease, which Is considered a mens i to the health of the children who play with them. The human officers killed 18 horses In August, found to be unfit for further service, and caused 18 others to be taken away from work to be rested vp and fed. There were two arrests for cruelty to animals. Many drivers are reported to have conceded gracefully to the demand of the officers for better conditions. BRIDGE WILL BE COSTLY South East Side Not to Ask for Divi sion Street Crossing. Estimates that a bridge over the Wil lamette at Division and Sherman streets will cost 12,000,000 are disappointing to the South East Side. It has been re solved that they will not ask for c bridge at this point because' of the great cost and for the further reason that Division street, on the East Sidtf, runs through the lumber dock of the Inman-Poulsen Company, a fact that would cause much litigation. It haa been decided by the East Side Push Club to'lnsist that the East Side landing be at Ellsworth street, which Is much higher than Division street. mo that the approach would clear ail car tracks. It Is estimated that a bridge at Ells worth street will cost between S00 -000 and 1600.000 less than one at Divi sion street. It has been agreed by the clubs on both sides of the river to ask for estimate of the cost of a bridge on Ellsworth street, and they were surprised when estimates were made for the bridge on Division and Sherman streets, which had been re jected on both sides of the river. It Is realized that It would be uphill work to agitate for a bridge which will cost l2.ono.000. Steps will be taken to have estimates made for a bridge on Ells worth street. W. C. T. U. WOMAN SPEAKS Mrs. Mary Stone, of Wisconsin, Gives. Address on Liquor Question. At an open-air meeting under the auspices of the local branch of the W. C. T. U.. held In the Plaza block yester day afternoon. Mrs. Mary Stone, of Wisconsin, temperance advocate, gave an address on the evils of the liquor traffic. Mrs. Stone was an Intimate friend and coworker of the late Frances E. Willard. Taking the proposition that the finished product must be of greater value than the raw material, Mrs. Stone contrasted the Increase in value In the finished lumber and woolen products with the lessened value of corn and the alcoholic products made from It. While an earnest advocate of the sup pression of the liquor traffic, Mrs. Stone is not fanatical. Her remarks on the subject showed a deep understand ing of the evils of the saloon. The speaker closed her remarks with a plea to her hearers to vote for the prohi bition measures at the coming elec- Preceding Mrs. Stones address. T. Johnson reviewed the prohibition bills which- are soon to be voted on. In the group behind the speakers were a num ber of the members of the W. C. T. U. Joseph Thomas Weds Miss Brough.
