HAINES LEADS FOR GOVERNOR
WITH CONGRESSIONAL
RACES CLOSE
DEMOCRATIC LOSS IS 8 PER CENT
Several Leading Speakers Declare
They Will Stump For Roose
velt Local Issues
Rule in Race
PORTLAND, Me., Sept 9. The
struggle between the Democrats and
Republicans in Maine today for con
trol of the executive and legislative
departments of the state government
the four congressional districts and
county officers was one of the closest
in years, with returns up to 11 o'clock
in favor of the Republicans.
With five-sixths of the state on rec
ord, William T. Haines, Republican,
had a good lead over Governor Fred
erick W. Plaisted,, and the percentage
system indicated that if the ratio
were maintained the Republicans
would win the fight for the head of the
ticket by about 4,000.
Returns from the four Congression
al districts also leaned toward the Re
publicans especially in the first third
and fourth districts with the second
showing a Democratic tendency.
Returns for Governor from 550 out
of 634 election districts give Haines
(Rep.), 66,121; Plaisted (Dem.), 62
127 The corresponding vote in
was Fernald (Rep.), 60,556; Plaisted
(Dem ) 67,501. These returns show
a Republican gain of 9 per cent and a
Democratic loss of 8 per cent.
The Legislative returnss were too
meager to give any indication of the
complexion of either branch, so that
the outcome of the fight for the Unit
ed States Senatorship between Sena
tor Obadiah Edwin C. Burleigh, Re
publican, was in doubt.
The Democrats went into the cam
paign on the defensive, having won
control of the state department in the
election of 1910. They based their
campaign almost wholly on National
issues, although . defending their
course in the state (administration.
The Republicans used) state issues
entirely as the weapons of attack, and
refused to be drawn into any discus
sion of National affairs. The Bull
Moose element of the Republican par
ty was in full control of party mach
inery, but with the approval of Col
onel Roosevelt fi split was averted
until today's struggle.
Many of the leading state speakers
in the campaign announced tonight
that they were no longer in the Re
publican ranks, but would take the
stump for Roosevelt.
univerWIil
teach journalism
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eu
gene Sept. 9, (Special) Journalism
which is the catalogue word for what
the newspaper men usually prefer to
call "newspaper work," will appear
among the subjects taught when the
University of Oregon opens Septem
ber 17.
- The) newspaper is the last of the
great public institutions and profes
sions to gain official recgnition from
the universities of the counytry, but
faculties all over the United States
have awakened to its surpassing im
portance in a democratic society, and
the training of newspaper men has be
come an important duty in many of
the best colleges. The universities
were conservative about entering a
new field, but the two great middle
western state institutions .of Wiscon
sin and Missouri went ahead and es
tablished schools of journalism. It
was not until practical editors, scep
tical at first, that the movement
spread rapidly.
The work in the university has been
placed in charge of Eric W. Allen re
cently northwest editor of the Seattle
Post Intelligencer. He was selected
because he combined experience of
both the metropolitan and as a teach
er. He has never been far from the
smell of printer's ink since his boy
hood. OREGON CITY HEN

WILL BE TAKEN FROM
CANBY TO PORTLAND
APPLES CAUSES LOSS Of FIRST PRIZE
Fruit Amazingly Large, But Color Not
So Good as Benton Display
Move Exhibit This
Week
The Clackamas County exhibit at
the Oregon State Fair is being pack
ed and will be shipped to the Clack
amas County Fair grounds this week,
where it will placed on exhibition. The
display caused much comment from
the many thousands of visitors at the
fair, and Clackamas County has ac
cepted th invitation of Multnomah
County to have the exhibit at the
Portland Land Show, which will be
held November 18. Mr. Freytag and
several assistants will move the exhi
bit to Portland after the County Fair
at Canby.
Clackamas County would have won
first prize at the State Fair if the ap
ple display had been better. . Clacka
mas County lost three points in ap
ples. They lacked color. There were
more apples' in this exhibit than in
that of Benton County, which was a
warded first prize, but Benton County
apples had better color. Clackamas
County won first prize on everything
exhibited but the apples, and.Mr. Frey
tag, who had charge of the exhibit,
says he is sure that it will win first
even on apples in 1913. The largest
apple on exhibit in the big pavillion
was in the Clackamas County exhibit.
It was grown by J. E. Hedges, of this
city, being of the Beitingheimer vari
ety. The apple weighed 1 3-4 pounds,
and was 16 inches in circumference.
The largest squash in the building was
also in the Clackamas' County bunga
low, this being grown by Thomas
Lindsey, of Canemah. It weighed 130
pounds. Both of these exhibits at
tracted wide attention. The exhibit
of Clackamas County was artistically
arranged, and much credit is due O. E.
Freytag and T. W. Sullivan, the form
er assisting in gathering the exhibits
and arranging them, while the latter
drew the plans for the structure of the
bungalow.
The people of Clackamas County
were liberal in contributing exhibits,
and next year a larger space will be
obtained.
BROTHERHOODS TO
HAVE UNION MEETING
In order that they may have a bet
ter understanding and accomplish bet
ter results of a civic nature it has
been suggested that a union meeting
of the- various church brotherhoods
of the city, and the one of Gladstone
be held in the near future. While the
details have not been worked out, it
is probable that the meeting will
be in the nature of a big banquet, at
which members' of the various organ
izations will give their views re
garding many important questions.
One of the men interested in the plan
to have the union meeting said Mon
day that all members of the brother
hoods he had approached on the sub
ject favored holding the meeting.

ches to the War Department today re
ported Salazar, the Mexican leader,
