In the second place. Mr. Hurlburt Is not the candidate of any class. di5e or community and If nominate! and elected will be tn a position to deal with all in teresta with absolute fairness. In the third place. Mr. Hurlburt has been a resident of Oeetn for over 1" "ears and has alwa-s been an active and enthusiastic promoter of the state's In dustrial and commercial interests. He be lieves in a ""Gtvater Oregon' and also believes that the transportation companies shonld do thetr full share towards the dex-elopment of the state. In the fourth place. Mr. Hurlburt's (er sonal character is above reproach. His record since a resident of Oregon is an open svk. Mr. Hurlburt is not connected with, or Interested in. any transportation company, either directly or Indirectly: neither haa any small clloue of Jobbers, destrvus of playing the dog-in-the-manger act. any strinira on him. It might aVso be said in behalf of Mr. Hurlburt. and to his credit, thst he is not being supported by the officials of any defunct title and trust company; neither haa he ever been a member of a railroad commission that, on account of its alleged utter uselessness and worthlrssness. was abolished by the State Legislature. DEMOCRATIC CLUB FORMED McAllister Is Fleeted President or Fast Side Org-nnitation. A Democratic Club was organised last night at a well-attended meeting held tn the hall at Grand avenue and East Pine street. It is called the East Side Demo cratic Club, and its constitution declares that Jacksonian Democracy is its funda mental principle. Officers wore elected as follows: President. E. S. 3. McAllis ter: first vice-president. J. P. Welch; second vice-president. A. N. Short; sec retary. W. J. Regnar: assistant secretary, P. Hens: treasurer. Robert D. Inman. Mr. McAllister delivered an addresa. in which he said that any Democrat who had registered as a Republican ought to be ashamed of his act. and declared tWat the time had come when Democracy should stand for something tn this city and state, and that he expected to see the party become united and harmonious. Mr. McAllister mentioned William J. Fryan as the peerless leader, and de clared that he was the greatest citizen of the world. The speaker said that with Secretary Taft as the opposing candi date, election of Mr. Bryan as the next President was very probable, . Main and Fifteenth Street Are Or dered Kxtrnded and Same ' ley May le Wd lowed Klwe rlicrt In the City. Councilman laker has be pun a move, ment to oen streets through various tracts within the city limits, and th first piece of closed property to be acted upon is th Kamm tract. This Is In the heart of a handsome residence section, and embraces a considerable area. The Council adopted a resolution by Mr. Haker. Instructing the City Knglneer to open Main street from Fourteenth to Cliopnian, and Fifteenth from Salmon to Jefferson. This will make thickly. to(Hilted territory ling beyond more easily accessible. KfTorts have been made for years to oien streets through the tract, but Jacob Kamm has alwn-s successfully fought the proceedings. Now. however. It is believed that the Council will forca the issue, nnd that this Important Improve ment will be made. It means a great deal to residents living west and south of the tract under discussion. Aa th matter now stands, there is no means of access except by a roundabout way, which works a decided hardship upon hundreds of people every day. Aslda fromithe fact lhat th tract aa It now Is works a hartlshlp upon a large numler of people. Mr. l"tker contends that the time has eon-.e when every similar tract tn the city should be opened up. as a matter of good policy. He declares himself In favor of opening streets throuch every closed piece f property on both sides of the river. There, are many tracts of land, in some Instances embodying a large number of acres, which are enclosed and through which there are no thoroughfare. There seems to be a strong sentiment in offi cial circles for an aggressive policy In this matter, which will open up to the public all of these pieces of property. Factional Vote on Fran-hlr. A fight between rival factions In the City Council is promised as the result r an application by the wholesale fur niture firm of Peters Roberts for a permit to lay a spur from the Vnlted Railways Company line on Front street to the company's establishment on Davis street. The minority mem bers of the Council, as represented on the street committee at the meeting yesterday afternoon, favor granting the petition, while the majority repre sentatives oppose it. A tie vote -resulted and the petition will go to the Council without recommendation. MANY REAL ESTATE SALES SOO-SPOKANE SERVICE.

PORTLAND RAILWAY, LIGHT 8 POWER GO. Important ! The State of Oregon stands on the threshold of its complete development, the City of Port land on the eve of becoming th metropolis of the Northwest, if not of the Pacific Coast, pro vided they receive at this time no injury in the house of their friends. t To displace Senator Fulton by an untried man would be such an injury. The State and City need all his talent, all his capacity, all his influence with his brother Senators and he has abundantly shown that he has all three to secure for the Columbia River the Gov ernment appropriations that are absolutely needed to give the same deep-water facilities to ocean - going ships that are now afforded by Puget Sound. When that is done, the shorter haul will of itself establish Portland's future. A new Senator, however able, would take his place at the foot, of all committees, would have to MAKE friends instead of finding them there to greet him ; would be without in fluence, and for two years (under - the unwritten law of the Senate) without power of speech, whereas Senator Fulton already holds , important positions on leading committees, and has shown his ability to speak and to care for the interests of the State and City. He has the esteem of his . associates in the Senate and the confidence of the community in which he has lived. The Secret Service force of the United States has apparently been en gaged for years in a microscopical investigation of his past without making a single dis closure that any fair minded man would deem worthy of the slightest consideration. He authorises the statement that he believes in the popular election of Senators, as he be lieves in the people's rule in all things wherein they express themselves, and, while he doesn't believe that it is his part, himself a candidate, to dictate to candidates for the Legislature what statements they shall sign or what pledges they shall give, he binds himself to ob serve the people's will, and, if defeated at the polls, not to carry th' contest further.
