The decision of Governor Benson to not become a candi date for the office which he now holds has started the dlscus "sio'iV'anew as to who shall be taken up for that office, c Governor Benson, as acting governor, had the first right to be considered if he chose to become a candidate. He has made a very good governor and has been devoting himself to the details of the duties of that office in a very ef ficient manner. . , . , He is an educated man. has been long trained in the pub lic service, and possesses the knowledge of state affairs, the legal ability and natural dignity to fill the office. So the Republicans of the state might have concluded to let iwoll.enough alone and in the miscellaneous struggle for the covered place might have decided to retain Governor Benson. But now the field is open and the air is cleared of the first inclination of any party to keep a man in office who makes good, (Portland Evening Tologrnm) With Benson out of the way, the chase for the gubernatorial nomination will grow warmer, The woods aro full of aspir ants, and there will probably be many more before the cam paign opens next summer. Dr, Andrew C, Smith, of Portland ,has been prominently mentioned for governor, and the self-elimination of Benson assists his cause materially, State Senator Jay Bowerman is a receptive candidate. J. W, Bailey, the state food and dairy commissioner, wants Jo bo governor, and has been working to this end for many nibdnsi Other state officers who wpuld like to be governor are Attorney-General A, Wi Crawford and Superintendent of Public Instruction J, H. Ackerman. , . . , Dr. J, Withycomb, of Corvallis, who opposed Chamberlain, In the last governorship campaign, is mentioned again, and a petition has been in circulation asking him to run, Former Representative M, A. Moody, of The Dalles, s talked of, and Grant B, Dimick, of Oregon City, has already opened his campaign. . , . , George J, Cameron, district attorney in Portland, has been boomecTby his political followers for the position, and Charles Johns, of Baker City, may mako a try, Colonel E, Hofer, of Salem, would consent to run if he was forced, and the colonel has received statewide advertising from his prayer for rain, wlvch was answered, Charles H, Carey has had an ambition for years to be gov ernor, . And thoro aro othors. The editor of The Capital Journal prints the above from the Portland Telegram for a specific purpose, He wishes to mako tho point that under the direct primary law and tho corrupt practlcos act there is no such thing as a man making himself a candidate. As the only private citizen mentioned in connection with the office of govornor tho editor of tlvs paper feels considerably swelled up, Newspaper men in only a few rare instances have been chosen to that office, If a newspaper is good for anything It steps on tho toes of so many pooplo that an editor is not available for office soaking, , , , Tho republican party doos not owe the editor of this news paper any such high honor as a nomination for any state of fice. Ho prefers his independence of thought and action to any prize In tho way of a public offico , Furthermore, nnv man who becomes an avowed candidate for an official nomination at tho hands of hs party should be reparod to support tho nominee ot the party, and tor tne ot ce of Governor there may bo a person named we would not want to support under any circumstances. Hence wo shall seek no nomination for that office at the hands of any party, , , , , Tho next governor of Oregon should have no bridle in his mouth from any party, nor have his hands tied by any as sembly or faction. , , He should be ready to veto any bill that a log-rolling legis lature might put up to him, The people of Oregon will support a republican governor doing just about what Governor Chamberlan did in the line of using the big stick, only they want him to do more of it. Besides, tho editor of this papor believes 'n reform meas ures like diroct legislation, direct nomination, direct election I AND SILETZ RAILROAD. Jos, Hirschberg, the Independence capitalist and banker, has associated with himself David W, Sears, an Independ ence capitalist, and 0,-W, Taylor, of Portland, to survey and extend his railroad into the Siletz timber and over to New port. Mr, Taylor has been a prominent factor in the organization of the United Railways that is building an electric line from Portland to Nehalem. Mr .Taylor has also been one of the successful promoters of the Rose City Park properties Mr, Hirschberg is extending his railroad operations to wards Salem and will probably secure a connection at Derrv with the Salem and Falls City line. The Independence and Monmouth railroad is now hauling logs from Dallas for the Salem mills, When he makes a connection with the Falls City line at Derry the whole west side country can get into Salem to trade. But it is the survey to the Siletz and the coast country that Salem is most interested in, The Hirschberg-Sears-Taylor survey will leave the Mon mouth and Alrlie railroad at Simpson station, It may take through the verv rich farmina country in Kind's valley, past Hoskins, and up the Big Luckiamute and down - Hock creek and the biletz and run to the coast, Mr, Hlrschbere already has two survevs, but is not satis- fled with the grades, I he new route will furnish almost a water-line road, not over one per cent grade, through a fine farming country and through the finest nody of timber on the coast, Whole townships of this timber will cut fifteen million feet to the quarter section of land. These are remarkable statements, but will be borne out by the facts, The Spauldlng Logging company now has a camp fourteen miles beyond Airlie on the Big Luckiamute. . These men who are pioneers in this enterprise, are deserv ing of public commendation, These gentlemen are going ahead to build this railroad with what encouragement they can get from the people along the line. The extension of tli's railroad means a great deal for the development of all Western Oregon, It means more to Salem than almost any other enterprise than can be started. The Oregon Electric from Portland, the Dallas and Falls City from the west, and the Independence and Siletz from tho south would be three big acquisitions. WOULD YOU BECOME WELL-TO-DO?

Inroads of the cocaine habit, which the Currier commis sion has found to be the American curse as opium.te the curse of China and hemp of India, have suddenly developed into a new and ominous phase of tho race problem in the United States, particularly li the south. "Cocoaine now ranks with wlvskev as the chief provocative of assaults and consequent lynching bees in the south," de clares Uharles W, Uollins and John Day ot the commission in a preliminary report just published in full by the Chicago magazine "Everyday Life." They add! "Already among the 'fiends' and the policemen who have to deal with them, there is talk of 'the new field,' "The phrase, with its commercial suggestion, comes from the dealers in the drugs, retailers and perhaps wholesalers also, "Every 'fiend,' it should be added, is more than I'kely to be a peddler of the stuff .taking his commission in the same mis ery that he distributes, "This 'new fiend1 is among the brutalized negroes of the south, who, denied easy access to liquor by the prohibition movement, are turning to drugs as a substitute," Tho commission quotes from Hampton's Magazine an ar ticle by Judge Harris Dickson of V'cksburg, Miss,, who told of a contractor who ordered a pound of cocoaine, to the aston ishment of the salesman to who'm the order was given who expostulated, saying: "No man on earth can possibly want that much cocoaine," The contractor reiterated the order, "A man who deliberately puts cocoaine Into a negro is more dangerous than he who would inoculate a dog with hy drophobia," commented Judge Dickson, "The deadly drug arouses every evil passion, gives the ne gro superhuman strength, and destroys his sense of fear, Yet the steamboat negro and the levee negro will not work with out it, So the levee contractor makes his camp look like a cioss sect' on of hell, but he gets his dirt moved," By Our Formula W produce in Hood's Sursaparllla medicine that has an unap preached record of cures of Scrofula, eczema, eruptions, catarrh, rheumatism, anemia, nervousness, that tired feeling. loss of appetite, etc. The combination and proportions of the more than twenty different remedial agents contained in Hood's Sareaparilla are known only to ourselves, bo there can bo po substitute, Ttils medicine makes healthy and strong tho "Little Soldiers" In your blood, those corpuscles that fight tho disease germs constantly attacking you.
