WARM FIGHT IS ON OVER ILLINOIS OFFICES CHICAGO, 111., March 1G. Rich ard Yates of Springfield opened his campaign for tho republican nomina tion for governor of Illinois at Peoria today. Ho intends to keep up an actlvo canvass from now until the date of the general primary next anonth. Mr. Yates held tho gover norship In 1900-4. Ho hns managed to maintain a considerable following slnco ho retired from otfico eight years ago, as was shown when ho was candldato for United States senator agalust Senator Cullom two years ago. He declares himself independ ent of any and an party factions. Many Lorjmer followers are friendly to him. Mr. Yates Is hut one ot eight as pirants for tho republican guberna torial nomination this year. Gover nor Dencen heads the list as a can didate for renomlnatlon. The gover nor is taking no sides in tho presi dential agitation, being friendly to both tho president and Mr. Roosovelt, nnd expects to be in a position, it he is renominated, to use the maximum of his influence for the national ticket. The bitter factional rows In the re publican party have given the demo crats great hopes ot success this year. Only once have the democrats carried Illinois for president and governor since tho civil war. This was In 1892 when the electoral vote was cast for Clovclaud and tho governorship wcut to John P. Altgeld. TRYING TO REFUTE TALE OF TEDDY'S DOUBLE CROSSING WASHINGTON.

Tho letter was given out as un an swer to Housur's Htatumeiit today that "Plnchot know Iloosovojt not only encouraged, but was favorable to La Follotto's paudldacy, until it camu to appear It might succeed." Gardner's letter to Housor declares uutruo any statement that Roosovelt urged La Follolto to become a caii d'dato. Jt goes on to say Roosovelt went word by Gardner that ho did not uollovo La Follotto could win, and ho belloved Tuft's renomlnatlon would bo forced by money and the patronage, therefore Roosovelt said ho did not feel llko urging La Fol lotto to go Into a losing fight.

Raising skunk skins on exclusive skunk "garms" Is suggested by the government In a bulletin boosting the "hack to tho farm" movement. It says there Is n profit In black skunk skins. "Skunk" Is the official namo given by tho department. It eschews "polecat" and "striped kitty" In tell ing how to bo aboss skunk farmer. How to make a most valorous suc cess ot skunk farming Is explained In detail In the official bulletin. It says "antipathy ot neighbors" has caused falluro in raising skunks in thepast. Tho department only ne glects to tell what uniform a skunk farmer should wear and what he should do with his clothes after rais ing his crop of skunks. Skunks arc natural cannibals, the department experts say. So skunk farmers arc advised to feed tho ani mals meat and also green corn, clover, broad nnd tomatoes. Salt should not be given tho skunks. Every fifty Bkunks should have an aero of ground, tho department bul letin avers. The farm should also bo isolated from (far) from neighbors. Wiro netting should fence tho farm and be burled underground several feet, with a "hang over" of wire on top to prevent the animals escaping by digging out or crawling over. Tho federal skunk experts say the animals breed onco a year, In the spring, and mature In December. ATTELIj FILES SUIT -f FOR $20,000 DAMAGES -f SAN FRANCISCO. Cal., March 16.

March 1C Argu ments were heard today before the state supremo court in the Univer sity of Oregon referendum case a case which involves alleged frauds under the referendum phase of the "Orogon system." Before the law appropriating $503,000 for buildings and extensions ot the University of Oregon at Eugene went Into effect, petitions asking a referendum on tho bills were filed with the secretary of state. Examination of the petitions by friends of the university Is said to have disclosed frauds and irregular ities sufficient to Justify a suit to en Join the secretary of state from put ting the question on tho ballot for next November. Evidence Introduced In the trial of the Injunction suit In the circuit court indicated that the greater part of tho 13.000 names pn the petitions wore socured by paid circulators at a few cents per name, and that in the case of seven circulators gross frauds were charged. Two lists of names were secured, It Is alleged, by hanging tho petitions In u saloon in Astoria, and another list or 100 names from The Dalles la said to have contained the names of men dead for years. Evidenco was so conclusive that tho defenders of tho petitions had to admit that 3778 numes were fraudulent, being forged, and in addition some 4525 names wore presented In a form declared void by a previous decision of tho state supremo court.
