ALEM, Or., May 10.-State Senator R. D. Inman, of Multnomah County. In a etter to Governor Geer, received today, ias tendered Ills resignation as State Seil itor. The letter Is not the equivalent of in official resignation, but. In discussing 3ie matter. Governor Geer eald he would iccept the Intention, clearly expressed In .ho letter, for the act. Mr. Inman has been considering the mat er of tendering his resignation ever since le received the nomination for Mayor by he fuslonlsts of Portland. In explanation )f his action, Mr. Inman sets forth that lis relinquishment of the Senatorshlp at hla time will spare the taxpayers of Mult nomah County the expense of a special election to name his successor, that would e a "possible necessity" should he defer Us resignation until after the June elcc Jon. Mr. Inman's letter to Governor Geer onsists of but one lengthy sentence, as 'oIIowp: "Having "been nominated by the citizens if Portland to the office of Mayor. ind e!ng a hold-over Senator from Multno nah County, It seems to me that the best nterests of the people cannot be ub lerved by my retaining the Senatorshlp mtll after the campaign is closed, know ttg, as I do, that, should I be elected llajor of this city, it -would entail a cost f several thousand dollars to the tax jayers of this city to hold a special elec Jon to elect my successor, and, believing ,hat any probability of working a hard- ihlp upon the taxpayers should at an .lmes be avoided, I therefore believe that t Is only right to the people that I should Cblgn this office at this time, and give .he pfople an opportunity to elect my juccessor at the general election, thereby ivoldtng the passible necessity of holding i special election at additional cost to the axpajers of this city." Governor Geer bos accepted Mr. Inman's eslgnation, and will within a fow days of iclally notify the people of Multnomah bounty of the vacancy that te created In the legislative representation of that ounty by tho withdrawal of Senator In dian. There remains time for the naming sy the different political parties of can lidates to nil the vacancy, and the placing )f the names on the official ballot for the consideration of voters at the June elec Jon. The time for placing names on bal ot by this proceeding expires 15 days pre ceding date of election, or on Saturday, Hay 17. IXMAX FILES ACCEPTANCE. Writes Letter to Fuslonlsts on His Nomination for Mayor. The following is a copy of Mr. Inman's tetter to the fuslonlsts. In which he ac cepted the nomination for Mayor. The letter was written on May 8, but was not received at the Demo-Slmon headquarters until yesterday: "Portland, Or., May 8, 1S02. Chairman and Members of the Citizens' Campaign Committee. Gentlemen: It Is well known to the public that I have not willingly ac quiesced to the use of my name for this office. The demands of my private busi ness, and the hope that some other citi zen would be found to unite better than can the forces opposed to the city gov ernment believed to be detrimental to the best interests of the city, have caused me heretofore to oppose your wishes, but I cannot be insensible to the honors the people have conferred upon me, nor to the duties imposed upon any citizen to yield his private, business to the public good. "I appreciate the great responsibility of the position of Mayor, and which, during the next three years, will require a great deal of tlmevand attention upon whomso ever Is called by tho people to All this exalted station. "Under the proposed new charter who ever is elected -will have to accept the responsibilities of the place, and will have to stand or fall by the record ho malces. "With the terms and purposes of this charter I am In accord, and If elected I pledge the people of this city an admin istration In sympathy with both Its let ter and spirit. I am a business man, with all the interests I have dependent upon the future of Portland, and as such feel that this, city has a right to demand the best services from whomsoever the vot ers may call to fill this position. "I desire to state through you to the citizens of Portland, that I will. If elected to the position of Mayor, to the best of my ability give to them a clean, honest, economical, efficient administration of the city's affairs, and one that will meet the approbation of men of all political parties. Yours most sincerely, R. D. INMAN." to have trapeze and bar work performed, and there will also be tumbling by Ball ley and Vlggers, of the T. M. C. A By special request, Messrs. Cooley and Fltz slmmons, formerly of the Hy Henry min strels, have been engaged for the occa sion. A fine musical programme has been arranged, and among those who will make addressed will be Judge George H. Williams. How Eastra Oregon "Will Go. W. P. Keady, the well-known miner and politician of Crook County, is spending a few days in the city. Since the State Con vention Mr. Keady has been in the Mal heur County oil fields, and has not been playing the fascinating, political game to any great extent. He says, however, that the Republican ticket Is a winner, and will carry nearly every county In Eastern Oregon. Harney County is con sidered by Mr. Keady as in the doubtful list, but the appearance of Hon. J. N. Williamson and other Republican speak ers In that section will revive the enthusi asm and swing the county Into the Repub lican column. Mr. Keady says that Mr. Furnish will carry Eastern Oregon by a handsome majority, but declines to make any numerical predictions. Mr. Furnish Tells of the Trip. Mr. Furnish said last evening on his return from Southern Oregon: "I am very much pleased over the recep tion that was given me during the can- C.9.J Kti. &.IIO -AVUW1C4A1 LUUlllICO) AUU Jfv- . j ui: came oui in large numoers 10 our meetings and gave me more assurances of support than I had expected. I was confident of my election before I started on the campaign, and am. still more con fident now." PORTLAND WINS AT WHIST NORTHWEST CHAMPIONSHIP GOES "TO HOME TEAM. Looks Good for Furnish. J. W. Scrlber, of La Grande, was In the city yesterday. Mr. Scrlber Is the Republican candidate for joint senator from Union, Umatilla, and Morrow coun ties. He expresses himself as satisfied with the present outlook for Republican success throughout the State "Mr. Scrlber nrcdicts a bie maloritv for Hon. W. J. ! Furnish In Union County. All Right in Lincoln Comity. B. F. Jones, of Toledo, was in Portland I I yesterday. He is tho Republican nominee for Joint representative between Polk and Lincoln counties. He says that Lincoln County will give the Republican State ticket the usual majority this year. He nIIl spend Sunday In Portland, being reg- istered at the Perkins, and will go to uvlhels luonaay. TO BACK SITE WITH MONEY FULL VOTE FOR MR. FURNISH. Southern Oregon and Valley Conn ties In Line. "If the feeling throughout the State is like it Is in the Southern counties. Fur nish will be elected Governor by from 10,000 to 15,000 majority," says C. W. Ful ton. "Of course, I do not know anything about other parts of the State Just now, because I have been In Jackson, Jo sephine, Douglas, Lane, Benton and Linn counties, and have been pretty busy. Southern Oregon is all right. To tell you the truth, I was surprised to see the In terest the people are taking and the crowds that came out to our meetings. The audiences were larger and more en thusiastic than I have ever seen before In that part of the State, with the possible exception of the first McKlnley campaign. At several of the valley towns we were told that the crowds were the largest ever gathered at a political meeting, not ex cepting the Bryan meetings. "The Republican rallies were attended by about twice as many people as went to the Democratic meetings held a few days previous, and in one or two in stances the proportion was still greater. The red Furnish buttons were everywhere in evidence, on the streets, in business houses, on the trains every Republican wearing them. The demand for buttons has been greater than the supply. "The Republicans of Southern Oregon are enthusiastic over Furnish. This was shown not only by the demonstrations while the meetings were in progress, but also by the way the people crowded -around after adjournment to shake hands and talk with him. Sometimes it would be an hour before he could get out of the crowd to go to the hotel and get some rest. Mr. Furnish has made a favorable Impression upon the people by his frank, open, dignified manner. The people see from his business-like address and his dignified bearing that he is just the man they want for Governor, and they are go ing to vote for him. "I found during our canvass of South ern Oregon that the Populists who wore formerly Republicans have practically all come back Into the party. A few Popu lists, who were previously Democrats, are also said to bo working with the Re publicans. On the -whole, I would say that In Southern Oregon Mr. Furnish will get the full vote of the Republican party and will get the votes of the Populists who have come back Into the party this year' Scllrrood Will Raise Conditional Sum for 1005 Fair. The Sellwood Board of Trade will un dertake to raise between 510,000 and $15. 000 in subscriptions for the 1905 fair, con ditional on its being held on the City View Park tract.

The company was Incorporated at Tren ton December 10 last, with a capital of $1,000,000. Almost as soon as the charter was Issued tho work was begun. t PRESIDENT'S CARRIAGES.

Bushnell Will Be Paid in Fall by the Penn Mutnnl Life, of Philadelphia. Grant C. Bushnell, draughtsman of the O. R. & N., and designer of the official seal of the Lewis and Clark Fair, who died in this city Friday, had a policy of insurance in the Penn Mutual Life, of Philadelphia, with Sherman & Harmon, general agents, the last premium upon which had not been paid at, the time of his death. In nearly every other company the in surance would have been forfeited, as no notice of discontinuance or application for paid-up insurance had been made. In the Penn Mutual, however, it Is specially provided that no policy can lapse until all money paid in has been used up in carrying the risk at the actual cost of plain Insurance. This feature is "auto matic," requiring no notice or applica tion, and under it the beneficiaries of Mr. Bushnell will receive the full amount of his Insurance. This is a striking illus tration not only of the value of life in surance but of having policies that insure under all circumstances and conditions.

Then one day In April when I was very much In need of some thin tr braefnir and tojc tha point of buying the usual tonic, she pre vailed upon, me to begin using Grape Nuts. So we ate GraDe-Nuts toe-othpr from then until June. "Previous to that, every Spring I had been compelled to take bottle after bottle of tonics, and then go home much run down, but this year June found me well and strong after a most trying month of work, with never a thoueM nhmtt tnnjps other than the nourishment received from urapo-ixuts. naturally I believe heartily In the merits of the food.
