Bower man and Lafferty are nre to
- be Elected According to Ms Views.
There Is positively no way. for
nnriBltlnn n rfpfpat pithef BoWer-
man or Lafferty,' said Editor B. S.
Kennedy of the Baker City Herald
thia morning as he departed for his
home. "I think the entire state and

'have the fight won now. I am glad to
p the renubllcan nartr of the state
get together. There never haa been a
time when Statement No. One or any
other statement would have split, and
this year It would aeem that all sides
are giving and taking Just a little
which Insures a united front to the
Oswald West la his campaign. Thia la
the first elective office Oswald has
ever ran for, hla career heretofore
laving been appointive at the hands
of Chamberlain.
"If you will notice Oswald tries 10
emulate the handshake and general
good fellow racket of Senator Cham
berlain and like everything !n thia
life that is copied, the reality is lack
ing and West's campaign reminds one
of a phonographic record. This is one
year he, nor any other democrat, can
win the office of governor for Jay Bow
erman Is the lad the people are bound
to have and you know the people
must rule in Oregon."
Cochran Will Ban Strong.
In speaking of George Cochran,
candidate for water commissioner,
Kennedy said there la little chance to
defeat the La Grande man. His op
ponent. F. M. Saxton, lives in Baker
county, but there ) reason to believe
that Cochran will carry most of the
precincts in that county as well as the
major portion of the entire district.

Aboat Tea Enpleyr U OH Promotion
by Sovember First r.
Following out Its policy c promot
ing employes who have been long in
service and have proved efficient in
their respective duties, the Harrlman
system in Oregon will advance about
10 of Its officials in the freight depart
ment of both tbe Southern Pacific and
Oregon Eallroad k. Navigation Com
pany, saye the Portland Oregonlan.
The first important change, made re
cently was when Frank W. Robinson
succeeded W. C. Coman as general
freight agent of the O. R. & N. In Ore
gon. Thia promotion was the result of
the resignation of Mr. Coman. who is
now genertl freight and passenger
agent of the North Bank Road and the
Hill lines in Oregon.
- Mr. Robinson has been connected
with the Harrlman lines for 19 years,
and has alnce been in service contin
ually, beginning as a clerk in one of
the eastern offices when a boy. Mr.
Robinson has been in Oregon less
than a year, but is probably more fa
miliar with the shipping situation than
any one else connected with the road, i
H. E. Lounsbury, ,now district
freight agent of the Southern Pacific
has been appointed assistant general!
freight agent of the Southern Pacific
and 0- Rr & N. in Oregon. Mr. Lons
bury has been connected with both
both lines' in various capacities for
more than 20 years, and Is one of the
fcest-known railroad men In the
state..; v ' ::.
J. H. Mulchay, now chief clerk in
tbe general freight department of the
O. R. tc N. and Southern Pacific, is to
be advanced to the position as district
freight agent of the Southern Pacific.
Mr. Mulchay has been with the Harrl
man lines for 19 years, beginning ser
vice aa a messenger.
J. R. Stein is to succeed Mr. Mul
chay as chief clerk in the general
freight department of tbe Southern
Pacific. Mr. Stein has been engaged as
chief clerk in the department, hand
ling interstate commerce subjects.
In addition to these changes five or
six other employes will receive pro
motions. Tbe appointments will be
come effective November 1.
270,000)00 Moslems.
Constantinople, Oct. 19 That Mo
hammedanism Is gaining converts
more rapidly than any other religion
and that It has a greater number of
adherents, in proportion to the time
It has been in existence, than Chris
tanlty la indicated by the figures com
piled by TurkUh newspapers in mak
ing a census of Moslems In all parts
of the world.
According to these figures now
practically complete. 270,000,000 peo
ple accept Mohammed as the prophet
of God and tbe founder of the true re
ligion. Of these, Turkey proper has
one-tenth, or 27.000,000 and there are
about the same number in the Sultan's
Asiatic and African possessions. Twenty-four
million subjects of the Great
White Czar profess the Moslem faith
and look to the Sultan of Turkey as
their spiritual beat. India has 00,000.
000 followers of the Phophet, China.
40,000,OQO Java 25,000,000, Arabia 20,
0M.000, Africa CC.CCO.tOO en j the Phil
ippines and South Sea ibliudo about a
million.
While these fijurc-a, from the neces
sities of the ca8e. are only estimates,
many European observers believe they
are conservative. If so, Mohammedan
ism Is the second religion, numerically,
of the world, as the disciples of Con
fucius and ancestor worshipers are
not believed to exceed 2CO.000.000 in
number. Hlndooism is estimated to
have about 200.000,000 adherents, Bud
dhism -50,000,000 and Polytheism 120,
000,000. Th number -of ChisUans, active
and nominal, in the world Is placed
by various authorities at from 450,
000,000 to 500,000,000. The religion
of Islam Is progressing far more rap
idly In many sections of the world,
notably In India, China ana japan,
than Is the religion of Chrat. Tl lib
eralising Influence of the Young Turks
has been felt In religion as welt as In
politics, and many of the Intolerant
and objectionable features of the Mos
lem faith bavs been modified. The
spirit of liberty and intellectual prog
ress In Turkey has been manifested
by the formation of a considerable
srhool of Intellectual agnostics, ra
tionalists and higher critics, who are
performing the same service for Mo-
that slmlar scholars
have performed for Chrstlanlly. Until
' the deposition of Abdul Hamld. "Inf.
! del" was tbe name applied only tc
Christians and Jews, since every Tu
i was of necessity a Mohammedan.

Men be Sensible, Dont Let it Grow
More Conspicuous.
If you are beginning to worry about
that spot right on the top of your
head, where the hair is thin or has dis
appeared entirely;
Don't' worry any longer.

cates dandruff; stops falling hair and
itching scalp, or money back at the
Newlin Drug Co.
It will cause the hair to grow, if
the hair root is not dead.
It causes the hair to grow thicker,
more luxuriant, and puts so much new
life into it that it grows lustrous and
beautiful.
