On the morning following bis nom ination, Acting Governor Jay Bower man, Republican nominee for Gov ernor, gave out an Interview in which be defined his position with regard to Important questions with his custo mary positlveness. Aside from declar ing for an economical and business like administration of state affairs, Mr. liowerman promises the people of the state other necessary reforms. He agrees to use his best efforts towards securing to the people the full and Immediate benefit of the state's resources. His statement fol lows: "I wish first to express my sincere gratitude to the many friends who have given me such loyal support through out the state. I feel that this nomin ation is an expression of confidence in me a confidence which I shall earnestly endeavor fully to Justify after my election in November. 'The contest which has Just closed has been devoid of unpleasant fea tures and my relations with the other candidates and their supporters have been at all times entirely friendly. Each of my opponents conducted an honorable and vigorous campaign. I hope that I shall not only receive the support of my opponents, but of a united Republican party. "In the primary campaign Just closed, I publicly declared that if elect ed, I would give to the people the most efficient economical and business-like administration within my power. To be more specific, I refer to the administration of the state in stitutions in which about SOO,000 of the taxpayers' money Is expended an nually; the management and control of those most valuable rights pcrtain- "I shall favor, and, if possible, fa cure tne enactment of a statute that will prevent the wntering' of corpor ate stocks. State Should Control Resources. "I most emphatically favor the regulation and the control of tbe natural resources of the state In the Interest of the people of Oregon. It Is not In the interest of the people of the state to continue a policy which has already resulted In the destruction of millions of dollars worth of our timber; which has prevented the set tlement of large untlmbered areas within the forest reserve; which has driven large numbers of Bettlers from our state; increased the burden of taxation and retarded development. The actual regulation of these matters should be vested in local authority un der suitable restrictions prescribed by the Federal government. "I am In favor of the direct primary law and will veto any bill which at tempts to repeal or emasculate It. Concerning other matters of public Importance, I shall have more to say during the progress of the campaign." JAY BOWERMAN. Ing to the tide lands, shore lands and other state lands, the lending with proper security of the Irreducible edu cational funds which now amount to more than $ii,OU0,0O0, and the use of due care In the selection of the large army of state employes. "Pull" Will Win No Job. "I wish to reiterate my previous statements relative to the changes I contemplate in the method of purchas ing state supplies, the adoption of which will result in the saving of a large amount of money. While filling the office of Governor of this state I have indicated to many of the state's appointees and officers, who hold by appointment, that their time belongs during the business hours, entirely to the state and that they have no right to devote it to political activity in the Interest of anyone. I shall not re tain an Incompetent officer or em ploye on arrunnt of any political pull" he may have, nor dispense with efficient service for the lack of it. "As a member of the State Senate I used every effort to assist in drafting and passage of our present railroad commission statute. There are in the state other large concerns of a public nature that are under no state regula tion. I refer to the electric light, power, railway and gas companies. 1 lhall favor, and, if possible, secure the adoption of a statute that will give to the public the same redress and pro tection now enjoyed under the railroad commission law, and I shall make It my particular business to see that these statutes are rigidly enforced. "I shall oppose the creation of any unnecessary board or commission, but I consider it highly Important that these public utility corporations be regulated by a comprehensive statute to be enforced, either by a special commission created for that purpose or by the railroad commission after Its powers have bona sufficiently enlarged. ICED PICK HANDLES NEWJOMMODITY New York en me near being treated to nn Innovation In that pleblan commodity, pick handlex, laHt week when u cur of these uxeful but tinre- k poind ve articles were put under Ice at the Apple Jrowern' I'tilon. The car, which wan a refrigerator, li.nl been loaded with pick handleH In Portland for a Hood River dealer and In Home unexplalnable way got mixed with the empties being Iced for the apple shipments of the union. The first consignment of pick handles placed under Ice to keep them In ac credited to J. K. ('lurk, floor boss for the union, and M r, Clark was anked no me soul trying questions by his fellow employes an to the cause of his slip of memory. Just how Iced pick handles would betaken In the big metropolis nt this season of the year Is not, of course, known, but It Is rather opined that they wouldn't be appreciated. With the weather In the Wis during the month of August It is thought that the laboring element would have unconditionally approved of an Ice-cold pick handle being handed out to them. At this season of the year, however, It Is commencing to get pretty frosty In (iotham and It is believed that they would have proved unwelcome. A PUZZLING PINE. Peculiar Tree That Is Something of a Mystery to Botanists. I'pper California Is the borne of a tree that has puzzli-d botanists. It is a pine which will grow only near the seacoust. Its growth Is slow, nnd it does not attain to great size. The strange thing about It Is that there are. to all itpear.ines. Insur mountable difficulties In the way of the perpetuation of the species. Some specimens of It exist In Kew gardens. In Ixmdou. They have been carefully examined by competent authorities, and all admit that the tree presents a problem unlike anything elsewhere met with. This pine produces nt regular Inter vals the usual cones containing seeds: but, strange to say. the cones nre so thoroughly protected that the seeds cannot be released. The coues are hard nnd tightly closed and have strong overlapping scales. More extraordinary still is the fact j that the pine, nfter producing Its nl- ! most Invulnerable cones, keeps them j bnnglng on Its branches year after year. Unless through some peculiar accident the seeds would apparently remain attached to the parent tree for- i ever. Many of the cones on the trees In Kew gardens have been there for 1 years, as Is shown by the size of the branches and the formation of the bark. It has been found that the seed ves sels which this tree so powerfully re tain nre so well protected that It re quires a strong knife with the assist ance of a heavy hammer to cut the cone Into sections. No ordinary con ditions of temperature enn make a cone open. j The following is the only explana- j Uon yet offered that seems to have any degree of plausibility: The species may be perpetuated by fire. One who t has studied the tree asserts that noth ing but the Intense heat of a forest 1 fire could compel the cones to release their seeds. It has been found that under the Influence of Intense heat they crack open and the seeds fall out uninjured. Harper's Weekly. MAKRILD WEST GREETS VOTERS ON STREET CORNER Oswald West, Democratic candi date for governor, Hpoke to a small but enthusiastic audience at the cor ner of Second and Oak str'ets Fri day evening. Mr. West came here Friday from Condon where he had held a meeting, and expected to ad dress his audience In the Commercial Club assembly room. . Owing to the fact, however, that o few showed up It was thought that he would do more effective work by speaking on the street. He se cured an automobile and drove to the street corner where he was Intro duced by A. J. Derby, Democratic state central committeeman. I Mr. West con lined his arguments to attacking the corporations which ! he stated his opponent. Jay Dower- man, represented In his candidacy ; for governor nnd promised If elected j to use his powers as governor In the Interests of the people and ugainst the trusts and machine politics. As he wanted to take a belated train for Portland his talk was a short one and he left for the train after shaking hands with a number who had gathered to hear him.
