POLITICAL LINES CONVERGED. Tho question ns to wlictlior or not Eimtcrn Oregon alnill bo nmply pro vided for in tlio work of tho next stato convention is being Bottled by din mission among those who represent important interests of the state with out respect to sections. Eastern Oregon lias not been whol ly overlooked in tho past, nor luia Southern Oregon, ns some of the as pirants for ofllco in that region now claim, but it is evident that Eastern Oregon will present a claim for recog nition which must not bo disregarded by tho powers that bo in the Republi can party. Matters political aro much mixed in Multnomah. Tho friends of Sena tor Mitchell hold tho whip lash in fiovoral material respects and they will, in all probability, continue to bold it. Mitcholl is Oregon's business friend. His ability to accomplish results for Oregon won him renewal of his ex alted placo at Washington. Since the Lewis and Clark exploration near ly 100 )cars ago no man has dono as much for Oregon as Senator Mitchell, Have and except the chief of tho Oro gouian oillco, Hon. Harvey V". Scott. These men have the same interests at heart. They have done valiant serv ice for the state, but have fought their battles at Washington separate ly, Tho lines on which they ptusucd this strife for more than a quarter of a century have finally converged, and today Scott and Mitchell, with their combined forces, aio doing for Oregon that which should have been dono many years ago. Probably it would be well to con clude this statement hero, for the pcoplo of tho statu aro familiar with tho history of tho contests that have retarded Oregon's development for two decades on account of fruitless and bootless and, happily, shoolcss, politics. A new era is dawning for tho great Webfoot Htatc and tho blazonry of tho new sun will conio in all its radiance in 1U0G. THE MUNICIPAL JUDGESHIP. Among the surprises of tho past week in political circles is tho an nouncement that Attorney Charles A. Lucas, recently admitted by tho supremo court of the state, is being urged to become a candidate for judge of tho municipal court of Portland. Lawyer Lucas is mm of the ablest and brightest colored men in tho West. Ho has devoted many years of his life to tho responsibilities of public school teacher, in which lino of work ho has succeeded moat admirably, lint his recent admission to tho bar carried with it an iullucnctt commen surate with his ability as a scholar and a man of attainments, and his friends declare that ho should yield to their judgment in making him a candidate for tho municipal judge ship. His ability to perform tho re Kponeihlo duties of that oillco is un questioned. Aside from that, ho is personally a very popular man and a genial gentleman, both in social and business iiitcrcoureo. Tho popularity of his nomination would not be limit ed to tho colored people of tho city, by any means. Many of tho most prominent busiiu-a men of Portland aie Lawyer Lucas' particular friends. Thoso who havo recontly published opinions against tho advisability of holding tho 1005 fair hero havo sud denly been "lost to view," Wo couldn't propooo such an event again for ono hundred years and then tho most of us will bo dead, This event is a matter of history and it should Ihi commemorated by tho celebration which tho enterprising citizens of Oregon huo proposed. Its success depends on tho spirit with which tho enterprise is undertaken. It can eas ily bo nmdo tho grandest event in tho history of the'great Northwest. CONGRESSMAN MALCOM A. MOODY, SECOND DISTRICT. Congressman Malcom A. Moody, of The Dalles, was first elected to con - gross from this district in 1898, and again, as proper recognition of Ills mcritoridlis scrvico during his first term, he was returned to congress by an overwhelming majority to repre sent the principal district of the state. Congressman Moody's untiring cfTort, both in tho departments at Washing ton and beforo tho United States con gress, to promoto tho interests of Ore gon in every material way and to provido means for tho development of its resources, has won for him the last ing rctrnrd of his constituents. Through their tirgony ho has boon persuaded to accept tho nomination for a third term, which means his re- election and a continuation of tho scrvico so ably rendered during his past and prcent incumbency. HON. JOHN W. WRTOTTTMAN, CANDIDATE FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL. Aside from unusual attainments, Hon. John W. 'Wrightman, chairman of tho Republican county contialcom mittco of Marion and a prominent lawyer at Salem, was at ono timo shoriff of tho Capitol county and for 10 years directly connected with tho sheriff's ofllco. In tho practico of extraordinarily sue- law no lias neon extraordinarily sue ccssful and is today accounted ono of tho leading lawyers of tho stato. Ho is a most approachablo and afTablo gontloman and personally very popu lar. Ho has been urged to stand for tho nomination for attornoy general of Oregon and his frionds havo recent ly announced that ho will bo a candi date boforo tho convention for that honor. Professor A. P. Armstrong may yet yield to tho importunity of his many personal and political admirers to be como a candidato for tho tho nomina tion for stato superintendent of pub lic schools. No man in tho stato is better qualified than is Professor Armstrong, of tho Portland Business Col logo, for tho pcrformanco of tho duties of statu superintendent of schools. Ho is tho foromost educator in Oregon today and fully equipped in every way to dischargo tho respon sibilities of that important oillco. In addition to that, Protcssor Arm strong is a very popular man person ally and has many frionds in almost every school district of tho stato. Senator Corbott has sot tho paco in tho matter of contributing to tho suc cess of tho 1005 fair. His gift of $30, 000 heads tho list and in all proba bility it will continuo to head tho list of contributors to tho fund for tho pro motion of that great historic ovont. Senator Corbott always leads in theso matters, lint ho is being olosoly fol lowed by men who aro equally inter ested with him in tho bucccss of tho great centennial ovont. Wo must havo it and whan mon of Sonator Corbett's class manifest such interest in it wo need havo no fear of tho ulti mate results. Hon. Edward Kvorott Young has become solo owner and managor of tho Orogon Republican, tho leading daily paper of Raker City. Editor Young is a forcible writer and u good nmiiagcr of newspaper business. Ho is a very popular man in Eastern Ore gon and his friends aro urging him to agreo to accept political honors be foro tho next stato convention, Mr. Young is ono of Oregon's most enter prising young men in public business and would bo strong beforo tho people as a candidato for any oillco whiuh ho would bo willing to accept. Governor Geer has returned from his campaign for tho Itepublicap war hor.-es in Ohio, in which ho made a brilliant record. Tho Tall Tamarack from tho Waldo Hills did yooman service for tho people of Ohio nnd, through them, for tho pcoplo of the nation, Ho will soon bo busy with his own campaign for rcuoininatiou, Several strong mon havo Ihjcii pro posed as candidates for tho nomina tion for Governor Geer's placo and tho suggestion is keeping our present executive guessing. Hut there aro others. Notable comment has recently been made to tho otTcct that Hon. I. L. Patterson, collector ot customs for this district, has conducted his official work" in a manner to show thai he is the best collector this port ever had. lno increase 01 business is remarkabloj , t,1(J mannor in which it is dono with- out on or loss ot time is note worthy, and tho gcnoral conduct of tho office is without parallel in this district. Unitod. States Senator Mitchell left on Saturday night for Washington to renew official work in tho national congress for Oregon particularly and the country generally. Senator Simon will go later. Important work is to bo dono at tho next session. Oregon's delegation is amply equipped to take caro of Oregon's business. Sift to Senator A. Q. Mitrstcrs, of Doulgas county, whoso friends have induced him to agree to accept the nomination for governor of tho stato of Orogon, is a strong man in South ern Oregon and will lo n prominent figure in tho convention. Senator Marstcrs' record in tho legislature of tho stato is admirable Stato Senator J. N. Williamson, representing Crook, Wasco, Lako and Klamath counties in tho stato legis lature, has created a degrco of con sternation in tho camp by his an nouncement that ho will bo a. candi date for tho stato secretaryship. Scn- utor Williamson is an able and a very popular man. Seeking After Knowledge. Figures recently compiled by the reg istrar of Coluinblu University show that as a whole tho Institution stands second to Harvard In membership, the respective enrolImenU belli? 5,740 and 1,:U)1!. After Columbia came the Uni versity of Michigan, with 3,813 stu dents; the University of' Chicago, It, 771; tho University of Minnesota, 3,423; the University of Callfornlu, 3,210; Cornell University, 3,004, tho Univer sity of Pennsylvania, '2,078, Htid Vale, 2,514. Columbia Is one of the lowest numerically In the size of ltn men's un dergraduate college, which, however, has Increased more than 50 per cent In a single generation. In the scientific bcIiooIs slio Is surpassed in numbers only by Cornell and Yale; In tier grad uate departments alio stand first In this respect, with 422, against 303 at Harvard. The statistics further show the peculiar proinluenco of Chicago, with her theological seminary of 180 students; of Pennsylvania, -.with a school of 417 d6utlsts, and another of GO vetcrlnarlcs; of Minnesota with a college of agriculture, numbering 600 In attendance; of California with her school of art, attracting 203 students; of Cornell, whoso division of forestry Is established with a registration of 22, and of Yale, the only university having a separate school of music.

Dated, Portland, Oregon, Novem ber 15, 1001. WILLIAM FRAZIER Sheriff of Multnomah County, Oregon, First publication, Nov. 10. Last publication, Dec, 14. HE FORGOT ABOUT THE DOG. Kan Ttetnrnlac from a Journey Find Hli llorae loo Well OuarleJ. Burglaries bad been of such frequent occurrence In the neighborhood that when he decided to leave home with bis family for a short eojouru In the country he hit on a plan that would In mire his home against Intrusion. A friend of his who conducted a saloon a few blocks away was the owner of two bulldogs of tried courage. Tho citizen beni on spending his vacation nway from the city concluded that their joint guardianship could be divided and ono of the canines left every night In his domicile would contribute much to his own case of mind. "I will give you n $5 bill If yon will bring one of those dogs over to my house at dark every night nnd tnke him nway In the morning," said the Inven tive resident to the bartender. "With ono of those dogs there overnight no one will have the nervo to try the win dows." The offer was nn alluring ono to tho dispenser of drinks and he readily ac cepted It. The householder had llttlo fear for his residence during the day time, as nn obliging neighbor hnd promised "to kind of keep nn eye on the place." A telegram from the city rudely In terrupted tho tourist's good time. One of his business associates was coming to town tho following day and It would bo necessary for the man on his vaca tion to burr' home for nt least 48 hours. Ills Journey to the railway station wne interrupted by nn nccldent to the rig and by the time repairs were made tho trnln had pulled out of the depot. This necessitated a weary wait for several hours nt the station until tho night trnln arrived. It was nearly 12 o'clock when the traveler, thoroughly tired, mounted tho front steps of his residence. The click of bin latchkey caused him to stop sud denly In his musings. He opened tho door n few Inches ami then slummed It In great haste as a heavy dog, growling fiercely, sprang against the panels. Then for the llrst time he realized how well guarded his home had been In his nbfience. Incidentally he regretted that his concern had prompted such a meth od of protection. Tho owner of the house had a "speak ing acquaintance" with the dog that stood In the way of his entrance, hut the animal was not disposed to recol lect It. The mnn nt the door said many pleasant things to the canine, but tho more he pleaded the louder the animal expressed Its resentment. At lust ho concluded that he was wasting time in his efforts at conciliation and that tho only thing left for him to do was to en list tho nld of his friend the bartender. Arriving at the saloon, the weary traveler found to his sorrow that an other drink mixer was on duty. "You know the bulldog that's over nt my bouse, don't you?" ho Inquired, pleadingly. "Oh, yes, of courso" "Well, I've been giving your partner $5 for taking him over nt night and bringing him away In tho morning theso two weeks. I'll Just give you $5 If you'll go over this ono time ami remove him." Chicago Chronicle. SOCIAL ENGINEERING. Haw a Praach Mlalaa: Company Looka Aftar 1U Kaaiilnyea' Welfare. In CnBsler'B Magazine appears an en tertnltilug article on the Industrial bet terment of worklngiucn by Dr. W. II. Tolman. Speaking of tho policy of tho French Mlulug Company, at Anzln, which was a pioneer In this movement, the writer says: To help Its employes Bnvo money the company established, In 18(10, n depart incut for deposits, In which the work men could mnko deposits up to '2.000 francs, on which the Interest allowed was nt 3 per cent. The company no longer encouraged these deposits In Its own department nftcr tho creation of (he postal savings hanks, slnco these give the workers every facility and every guarantee for banking their sav ings. A cor-operntlvo society was founded In 1805 on tho Initiative of the com pany. In nddltlon to foodstuffs of all kinds, which are bought In bulk, this so ciety had Its own bakeries, dairies, butcher shops and wlno cellars. All sorts of household utensils, clothing, and, in fact, all articles for which a demand exists, are supplied. The com pany Itself buys from tho co-oporatlvo stores soaps, brushes, palls nnd other small supplies for factory nud oillco uso. The society has Its own chemists, "who analyze all tho foodstuffs nnd test tho merchandise, so thnt the members are protected In having the purest sup plies nnd standard products nt the lowest market rates. To-day tho stores aro absolutely Inde pendent, with 10 branch establishments nnd a forco of nearly 100 of their own employes. Tho present number of co operators Is 5.1W2. The sales In'lSOO rrnched 3,034,011 francs, with a net profit of 744,471 francs to bo divided among the co-operators. Millions In It.
