Changes in Congress
Special to the Evening Review.
WASHINGTON, D. C, Oct. 29.
Next Tuesday there will he elections
In forty-three- Btates and two terri
tories. In twenty-nine of the stutes
a governor and other state officers;
in the others minor state olllcors or
justices of the supreme court, and lu
seven, congressmen only are to be
elected. The states of the union,
with the exception of Maine, Ver
mont and Oregon, will vote for mem
bers of the House of Representatives.
The three states named have held
their state elections and will vote
only for presidential candidates in
the coming election. In Arkansas
and Georgia the state officers have
been chosen this summer, leaving on
ly the representatives in congress and
presidential candidates to be voted
for.
The terms of thirty-one United
States senators twelve democrats
and nineteen republicans expire
March 3, 1909. In a number of the
stutes the senatorial choice already
has been made by primary. A
tlonal house of representatives Is to
be elected the sixty-nrst Congress.
The present house Is composed d
223 republicans and 166 democrats,
with two vacaucies caused by death,
ono republican and one democrat.
Maine has already elected four re
hlirnns, Vermont two and Oregon1
two. The congressional situation al
largo Is very mixed. There are be
tween ninety and one hundred close
congressional districts scattered
through the country, most of thorn in
states now classed as doubtful stntes.
these districts are close in the sense
that the republican or democratic
plurality in the last election was so
slender that It would take but a
slight change In every voting preclncl
to bring a reversal of the political
complexion in this election.

for the third lime, wuu uuuble to tur-
ulah 125,000. bonds when arraigned
beforo United States Commissioner
tlnlley this morning and will be tak
en to Tortlam! and placed In jail to
await trial. Tho complaint in this
cuue allogcs that Scrlber obtained,
embezzled aud appropriated to his
own use tho sum of $2000 and used
a note forged by himself In the name
of II. C. Kluehart, a prominent mer
chant of La Grando.
On the occasion of his drat arrest.
Scriber furlnshed a bond for $10,
000. 111b second arrest was brought
about by reason of a complaint sign
ed by O. P. Coolldge, one of the men
who signed his llrst government
bond, and who charged that deposits
had been received by the Farmers &
Traders' National bank after the
eashlnr knew It to be insolvent. The
Kiiiu named in tho complaint was
$:100. Tho warrant was Issued by a
justice of tho peace at La Grande,
who llxed the bond at $0,000 which
was furnished.
Scrllier's Innblllly to give the $25,
000 bond exacted upon his third ar
rest Is duo to a feeling prevailing at
LnOnimle that Scrlber might attempt
to get uut of the country because of
the revelations which show that his
hunk Is involved for a much larger
sum than nt first reported.
it is said that the defalcations of
(he former bnnk ofllclul will approx
imate $150,000 before the matter Is
thoroughly sifted, and that he did
not hesltnto to crente a supply of
forged notes which he kept ou hand
nnd used as occasion arose. The
nameH alllxed to these notes comprise
the lnrgest merchants nnd wealthiest
residents of that vicinity. An ink
ling of this condition of affairs got
out among Ln Grande people and it
is said now that most of Scrlber's
former friends are reluctant to be
conio liahlo as bondsmen for fear
that their names are Involved ln
some of the Illegal paper passed by
him. It Is Bnld that such motives
nctunted hlB former bondsmen to
some extent In tnking action to with
