The Oregonlan, together with a number of other papers, commented at length on the wonderful display fiom Douglas county. Over 100 dif ferent varieties of products were shown there and so complete was til; ehlhit that Douglas covny took sacoi.d pWse. with their first attempt. f'Otiiildcrabie effort was made to give a tenresentative exhibit of t'.in Dima, lu county r dnrls fet the Hnle fair, but this exhibit does not com pare with the exhibit that will be seen at the Doirglas county fair.

Some of the best livestock shown at the state and Interstate fairs will be shown here, and in addition some of the finest blooded stock in the state of Oregon, owned by Douglas county people, will be on exhibition. One Douglas county poultryman secured eight prizes at the Salem fair. He is only one of a number through out this district who have prlzewin ning stock. The poultry department will contain a complete exhibit of this large and growing Industry. Many growers of pure-blooded chick ens and other poultry will make ex hibits. Many Horses Knter. Special attractions have been of fered to the owners of beat horses, and the entries are numerous, but the stables are adequate to accom modate the large number of horses that will he sent here to contest for the purses.

The recent showers nnd the sunshine have put the track in splendid condition and many of the track records will probably be broken this year. The exhibits and races will satisfy the most ardent lover of this sport. The prizes In the art, culnfary and other departments are more gener ous this year than ever before.

Jay Bowerman, nssembly candi date, on a count of approximately two-thirds of the vote cast in the primary election of Saturday, has won the nomination for governor of Oregon by a plurality of 3500 to 4000 over Grant B. Dlmlck, of Ore gon City, with Ernest Ilofer, of Sn 'om, third nnd Albert Abraham, of Roseburg, fourth. More nearly complete returns from Multnomah county; nnd the tate at large received yesterday do not materially change the forecast given yesterday on the remainder of he ticket. These returns seem to 'ndlcate conclusively the defeat of Ralph W. Iloyt, the assembly can lidate for state treasurer, by Thom as B, Kay. by a majority of sever al thousand. Outside Count i'H Defeat lloyt. Mr. Iloyt In Multnomah county 'ins received a majority over Kay of more than 1200. but the returns from other counties so far received show that Kay Is leading the re 'ualnder of the state and has over come the Multnomah lead and has 1 800 advantage over bis opponent. The returns for Multnomah county ire more nearly complete than from Mie other portions of the state, so flint If the proportion of votes cast for the two Is maintained ' In the smaller counties Kay will Increase 'his lend materially. On the vote so far as counted, F. W. Benson, assembly candidate for secretory of state, has a lead of more tbnn S000 over (J. Wlugaate, 'ind his majority will probably roll up to more than 10,000. Crauford'H 10,000 Lead (trowing. For Attorney- General, A. M. , Crawford, on the latent returns,! xhows a majority over J. X. Hart, (he ,aHKembly candidate, of about I 4.1 1 't ''I', " -.v. f'J Jr., of Von rail a. 10.000 which will be increased by the belated returns. W. S. Dunlway, the present state printer, has also defeated W. (J Clarke, assemlifly (candidate, by a : wide margin. Dunlway now shows a majority of more than 8000 over Clarke, and each later report in-! creases Dunlway's lead. . The closest contest 1b between O. P. Hoff, assembly candidate for com missioner of labor statistics, and G. i M. Orton. The total returns so far as complied give Hoff 12,332 and Orton 12,397. While Orton Is thus shown to have a slight lead, an an alysis of the count indicates the elec tion of Hoff. Mr. Hoff ran behind Orton about 100 votes in Multnomah county, but on the returns bo fur received from the other counties Is nearly up with his opponent. Hoff GnltiH hi Hmall Counties. If the counties of small population show on a complete count the same relative difference between the two men Hoff will have won the contest by about 750 votes. Orton has had his principal strength In the town and city precincts and from these the vote Is more complete than from the country districts, where Hoff hns shown the greater strength. For Superintendent of Water Di vision No. 1, J. T. Chlnnock has a strong lead over F. K. Gottln and Is undoubtedly nominated. Mr. Get tln had the assembly Indorsement. Hawley's Lend (1 rowing. For representative In congress from the first district the Incomplete returns give W. C. Hawley a ma jority over B. F. Mulkoy of 1646, but in these figures less than two thirds of the vote cast la represented. On the final returns, estimating the vote on the way It is shown in the Incomplete figures. Representative Hawley will bo nominated for re election over his opponent by ap proximately 3000. In the second congressional dis trict Representative Ellis Is defeat ed for nomination for re-election by between 2800 and 3000 by A. W. Lafferty, as now Indicated.' On the vote so far reported Lafferty has a lead of 2893, including the votes of all counties reported. LjiftYrty's Strength In Multnomah. in this plurality over Ellis, how ever, 27G4 is represented In the nearby complete returns from Mult nomah county, indicating that In the other counties Lafferty has run some ahead of Ellis but not very strongly. The plurality of ,2800 to :;imm) that It is estimated will be shown In the complete returns Is bnsed on the theory that outside of Multnomah county there will not be a wide divergence between the totals cast for the two candidates. In the Incomplete returns C. J. Reed Is about 1000 behind Ellis nnd George S. Shepherd about 1000 be hind Mr. Reed. Oregon republicans have thus nominated one administration can didate In Representative Hawley and one Insurgent In Mr. Laffory. Asm-mhly Wins Three Cotitvuts. For contested places on the state and congressional tickets three as sembly candidates, it is certain, have been nominated In Jay Bow erman for governor, W. C. Hawley for represent atlvo in congress and F. W. Benson for secretary of state, and probnbly a fourth has been named in O. P. Hoff for commis sioner of labor statistics. The antl-assembtyltes have won one congressman, state treasurer, one justice of the supreme court, attorney general, state printer nnd superintendent of Wator Division No. 1. i The following are the totals com piled on the Incomplete returns re-! celved up to 10 o'clock last night,! on the republican ticket: j Governor Bowermnn 1 2.T80, i Dlmlck 10.441, Ilofer 5.941, Abra-' ham 4.235. !

In compiling the foregoing totals partial returns are at hand from all counties with the exception of Ren ton. Curry. Grant, Harney, Klamath and Lake, from which no reports at all have been received. In the latter counties Bowerman expresses con fidence In good pluralities being re turned for him from Grant, Harney and Lake, while encouraging reports were also received from Curry, prior to election. Mr. Bowermnn, inwt. night, express ed a denl of era I Ifl fat If tn over the report h from Hlierrnnn.

Returns from the democratic vote Huntington And Neuner Out distance Opponents BENSON IS THE FAVORITE Indications tire (lint Huntington Will Lfuil TUkKt With Neu. ni-r a Close Second As sembly Alen. 1 ' As hns been predicted by the News, the atisembly candidates for repre sentative from Douglas county won hands down In Saturday's primary election. Complete returns from twenty four of the thirty-six precincts, up to 9 o'clock this morning, Indicate that Huntington, assembly candidate for representative, will load . the ticket, while his running mate, Neu ner, nssotubly, will follow a cIobs second. This situation may be changed, however, when the entire vote of the county Ig compiled, and it may be possible that Neuner will should er the responsibility of carrying the legislative ticket in Douglas coun ty to success In the November elec tion. Joiiob, of Roseburg, Wadw, of Drain, and Wlxson and McDon ald, antl-usBenibly candidates, have been badly benton, according to tho lute returns, a condition that evi dences tlmt Douglas county Is decid edly assembly. The County Ticket. The successful republican aspir ants from Douglas county follow: Representatives Uonjnmln Hunt Ington, of Yoncnlln, and George Neu ner, of Kosoburg. County J ud go J. C. Fullerton, of Roseburg. Sheriff George Qulne, of Riddle. County trensurer James Saw yers, of Mosohurg. County Clerk William T. Emory, of Coles Valley. Surveyor Frank Cnln, of Riddle Couhly Commissioner J. S, Wil ey, of Myrtle Creek. In connection with tho selection of county nominees It might be said that Sawyers victory over Frater wns pitiful, and It Is not probable that Frater will receive over 100 votes In tho cntlro county. Frntor was the nntl-nssenibly candidate. ' The Htato llraiiltfi. For tho stiilo nnd district offices complete returns from twenty-four of tbe thirty-six preclnctB .In Doug las county show the following re sults: ' For Congress Hnwlev, 430; Mul key. 280. , For Governor Abraham, 240; Mowenuan, 310; Dlmlck, 90; E.

Frank Benson, nssemlilv candidnte for secretary of state, probably poll ed the largest vote of any state or district candidnte, and outdistanced his opponent, Wlngate by ft vote of five to one. Crnwford, nntl-nssem-lilv rnndldnte for nltorney general, also Hhared a flattering voto In Douglas county no doubt for the reason that he is a nntlve of Rose burg, nnd is well known throughout the entire country. For state treasurer Kay will prob nbly defeat lloyt by a small margin In Douglas county. Ills success Is attributed to the untiring efforts of n prominent Roseburg democrat who hns Inhered with all might In his be half. This democrat Is a relative of Mr. Kny. and has considerable In fluence In the republican ranks of the county. ore not so complete as those from the republican vote hut the reports so far received slve West 2285 and Myers 1 424 Reports are wholly lacklne from half of the counties, hut West hns led so generally throughout the portion of the state '-.card from that his nomination seems assured.
