Is one of the most prominent candidates, and that all per sons. Irrespective pf party, oucht to gladly welcome the opportunity of doing everything In their power to secure that office for him.

Baker Coanty Learislatlve Delegation Commands Most Interest. BAKER CITY. March 28. The Repub licans are preparing to ma'ke the most vigorous fight they have ever made for supremacy in this county. The -great con test will be for members of the Legisla ture. The county elected & Democratic" Representative two years ago, and four years ago a Democratic Joint Senator was elected from Baker and Malheur Counties. Smce the last Senatorial election, the dis trict has been ch'anged, Harney Countjy having been added. Th Democrats hold that they have a safe majority in the dis trict, but the Republicans think there is a good fighting chance, in fact, they insist that they will elect both the Senator and Representative. It looks very much aa though the Demo crats will nominate Mayor Robblns, of Sumplef, for Representative, against George L. Chandler. The county officers are now divided between Democrats and Republicans. The Democrats believe they gained a. decided advantage by the annex ation of the "Panhandle." The Repub licans concede a slight advantage on this account, but insist that it can be over come if they get all their voters to regis ter and vote. STRONG TICKET IN CLACKAMAS.

Stevens, of Mllwaukle, -who was nominated for Recorder, Is a conductor on the Portland City & Oregon Railway, and has had experience in the duties of the office. The nomination for Sheriff went to J. R. Shaver, who owns one of the largest and best farms In the county, and whose home is at Molalla. Enos Ca hlll, of New Era, and James F.
