Forty-two of two hundred and nine

One reason for; the large number of

BEN W. OLCOTT, who hangs ten
aciously to his Job of secretary of
state, while announcing his Inten
tion of becoming a candidate for
governor on the Republican ticket
Olcott was campaign manager for
Oswald West, Democrat and was
appointed by West to his present
position.
SECRETARY OLCOTT TO
HOLD TIGHT TO HIS JOB
SALEM, Or., Jan. 26. (Special)
A great state house political mystery
was solved today when Secretary ot
State Ben W. Olcott, in announcing his
formal candidacy for the Repblican
i nomination for governorship, declared
that if elected governor he will resign
the office of secretary of state follow
ing Itia AloHnn on1 Prt.flfi. rr
' . .v ' , A
Jblshas beeu tne political cud
chewed over for weeks by those wan-
here and the formal announcement
made by the secretary ot state de
prives them ot a juicy morsel.
In making his announcement, Mr.
Olcott also asserts that he will, if
elcted, conduct the affairs of his office
on sound business principles, that he
will make no campaign about the state '
but confine himself to his office, that
ne win urge the legislature to endorse
the national prohibition and suffrage
amendments if it comes up to it dur
ing his term, and that be will stand
for economy in state affairs as the
greatest exemplification ot patriotism
in the present crisis.
With the declaration of Mr Olcott
it Is expected political gossip here will
now switch as to the, possible success
or to the secretary In event he is
elected governor. The shrewd guess-
ers are slating E. E. Brodie, editor of
the Oregon City Enterprise, as being
head and shoulders in the lead at the
present time, while the names of Ned
Baldwin, secretary to Representative
SInnott, Corporation Commissioner
Schulderman and Insurance Commis
sioner Harvey Wells have all been sug
gested by the political wlseheads. Gov
ernor Wlthycombe is naturally making
no comments as he expects to be re
elected, and In event that happens
Secretary Olcott would stay on the job
he now holds until the expiration of
his term January 1, 1921.
But the situation will give the boys
something to talk about. Insurance
Commissioner Wells laughs at the sug
gestion that be might be the selection,
while Corporation Commissioner
Schulderman sagely observes that it
is a question not to be discussed at
the present time.
And there you are.
It really Is not a matter much worth
speculating about until the votes are
counted after the general election.
TO
The ship-knee Industry is rapidly
assuming "big business" proportions
in Clackamas county. Friday after
noon the Gamble-Kleg Ship-Knee com
pany signed up with Aldana Bailey
and Henry P. Bailey, for the sale of
all available ship-knees on forty acres
ot ground about three miles east of
Parkplace in section 23. The Bailey's
will receive 50 cents each for knees
up to 12-lnches in diameter, $1 for
knees from 12 to 20 inches, and $2.50
each for larger "sizes.
The Molalla country has also be
come a big ship-knee center. The
knees are made ot fir stumps, which

COUNTY ORGANIZES
FOR LIBERTY LOAI
DRIVES
Oregon count?
With every Oregon count; c?c
runrMVfiteA- third I.lhcrtT IniS aS
ers gathered In Portland Tu' "aay
morning to plan the great spring drive.
Clackamas county was represented by
M. D. Latourette, a member of the
state central Liberty Loan committee.
Quiet, Intense determination to win
in the greatest nnanciai task ever
faced by the state gave outstanding
character to the assembly of half a
hundred men charged with the tre
mendous responsibility of showing
that Oregon's money again, but in doa
ble measure, will mobilize with patri
otism equal to the national army that
Is carrying the 8 tars and Stripes for
ward against the Hans on foreign bat
tlefields.
The. conservative estimate of Ore
gon's probable quota of $50,000,000
and the fact that the campaign organi
sation win Include the registering of
every citizen, Including a note on his
ability to Invest and hi nationality,
were the startling disclosures of the
session.
This county's quota will be some
where between $500,000 and 1800,000,
which figures In themselves give some
Indication ot the gigantic task ahead.
EX-U. S. SENATOR
ON DEATH MILL
Charles W. Fulton, ex-United States
Senator from Oregon, prominent law
yer, and for man) years an active
figure in the politics of the , state,
died at 1:40 o'clock Sunday afternoon
at his home, 6S6 Weidler street in the
65th year ot his age. Death resulted
from a complication of ailments which
confined him to his home for nearly
three months.
Senator Fulton had not been-physically
well for a number ot weeks
preceding Thanksgiving, but his won
derful capacity for work kept him in
his law office until early in November,
when he was obliged to give up his !
active career and seek professional '
treatment About this time he was
forced to take to his bed and, although
at times his condition showed indica
tions of recuperating, he gradually
failed In strength and his passing was
not unexpected for the last two weeks.
In addition to the widow and son,
Mr. Fulton Is survived by one slBter,
three brothers and four nephews. The
sister, Mrs. Ida A. Halderman, resides
at Pawnee City, Neb. The three broth
ers are Dr. J. A. Fulton and G. Clyde
Fulton, an attorney, both ot Astoria,
and E. L. Fulton .also an attorney, of
Oklahoma City, Ok. Tha nephews all
reside In Oregon. They are: G. W.
and Frank Halderman, of Astoria;
R. W. Halderman, of Portland, and
A. C. Fulton, of Astoria.
Miss Zelma Benson sister ot Mrs. E.
B. Anderson, of this city, sustained
bruises on the left arm and shoulder
when she was run down by a light
Buick roadster on the east end ot the
suspension bridge Sunday afternoon.
The car passed over her shoulder, but
she was able to walk to her home
several blocks away, after the acci
dent. The car'B number was 33428,
and it is owned by a Portland man,
whose name the local officials have ,
been unable to learn. Witnesses claim
that the car was driving on the left
side ot the bridge and that the ac
dent was the fault ot the driver.
