I . A TRIAL SOLICITED.
WOULD BE
SECRETARY
Of STATE
F. W, Benson, of Roseburg, a candidate
before the primary nominating election
fajr Uie office of secretary of state, was
La Grande visitor yesterday. Mr. Benson
was here becoming acquainted with the
people of this part of the state. Though
he is probably one of the best known at-
torneys is Western Oregon, his acquaint
ance with Eastern Oregon is somewhat
limited. However, by the time he has
completed :his, his first trip through the
Inland Empire, he will be in a position to
know more of the vast region east of the
Cascades.. Mr. Benson ha held several
offices Of public trust in Douglas county,
having served two terms as county school
superintendent, and also two terms as
county clerk of the same . county. ' The
past nine years he has been' practicing his
profession and incidently taking an active
part in county and state politics. Mr.
Benson's record both political and person
al is clean and free from question. Should
he secure the nomination, there is no
reason why he should not receive the un
divided support of every Republican in
the state. Mr. Benson left this morning
for Baker City, but expects to return and
spend Sunday here visiting his sister, Mrs.
Geo. Carpy.

BAKER QTY RAID
Sheriff Harvey K. Brown accompanied '
by Mr. Canyon about 10 o'clock last
night raided the saloons and gambling
places and made several arrests where
slot machines were found in use and
gambeling going on. . So far as could be
learned the only places caught were the
Artie and the state. , It is supposed that
this action grew out of the suit recently
brought by a man named McGuinnis
against the proprietor of the Artie for
money lost in gambling. ' After the raid
none of, the officer could be found nor
the judge issuing the warrants, but those
apprehended were told to appear in court
today. Baker City Democrat.
