TTTE MORNTN'G OREGOXIAX. MONDAY, JULY 18, 1910. 91 COUNTIES HAVE NAMED DELEGATES Responses to Call for State Assembly Come From Every Seetion. CANDIDATES ARE MANY Mass Meetings In 19 Counties Are Held on Saturday Lake, Co lombia and Curry Alone Are to Be Heard From. Statewide is the response to the call for the Republican state assembly which convenes next Thursday morning at the Armory, Tenth and Couch streets. Thirty-one. of the 34 counties already have selected delegates and sent in the lists to headquarters of the state central com mittee in Portland. Of the three miss ing counties, Columbia. Lake and Curry, the first named has chosen part, of its delegation, while Lake County Republi cans are to meet early this week, so it is reported. Curry is yet to be heard from. Of the 1248 delegates entitled to at iend the assembly in behalf of the Re Publican electors of the state there are Indications that the actual attendance will run past the 1100 mark. Letters have been received at Republican headquarters from every section of the state giving assurance of full attendance of dele gates. 19 Meetings Held Saturday. Since early in June mass meetings have been held at intervals in the various counties for the purpose of selecting delegates. The largest number of these meetings of any one day occurred Sat urday, the total being 19. Reports from the meetings Indicate that they were largely attended and that marked en thusiasm was the rule. Republicans gen erally are taking a determined stand on party upbuilding. The counties that chose delegates Saturday are Benton, Clackamas, Clatsop, Columbia, Douglas, Cirant, Harney, Hood River, Jackson, Jo ephlne, Klamath, Linn, Malheur, Mult nomah, Sherman, Tillamook, Wallowa, Washington and Yamhill. Multnomah County has the largest dele gation, the apportionment being based on the last Presidential election, one delegate being allowed for every 50 votes cast. Multnomah has a quota of 854. Marlon is second with 76. Lane is third with 66. As in the Multnomah County assembly proxies are not to be recognized, so an nouncement has been made. But where delegates are. unable to attend their vote may be cast according to the ideas of the majority of their delegation. Many Delegates Qualify. Vp to this time all but 39 of the 1248 delegates have qualified for cer tificates. Columbia will report today with 25 delegates, which will reduce the hiatus to a meagre 14. Herewith is shown a table of the counties that have Indorsed the assembly to date and the number of delegates each has selected: Baker JHlLinn 44 .uaineur ......... 1 Marion .......... 7tt Murrow .......... 14 Multnomah AM Hoik 2 Sherman ......... 9 iiuamooK ........ 12 TmatUla 47 fnlon 80 Wallowa ......... 18 Josephine Washington' " V.Y.

Many names are be ing talked of already in connection with the various important places on the state ticket, but the full list of possibilities will hardly develop before the day of assembly. Every section of Oregon has its favored sons, whose merits will be urged for one place or another on the ticket and. as in the ?ase of Multnomah County's assembly, the strongest men are due to win. Many Candidates Discussed. Rpntnn Clackamas Clatsop ... . 00s ...... Prook Uoutrhis ,11111am CJrant Harney Hood River Lri Jaekson ....41 Interest naturally centers to a large degree in the recommendation of a candidate for Governor. Several names are being talked of in this connection. Dr. Andrew C. Smith has a strong fol lowing of friends throughout the state who are urging his name, this fol lowing being especially strong In Mult nomah County, where he resides. Dr. Smith, however, has not yet Indicated whether he will become a candidate. Jay Bowerman, of Condon, the present Acting Governor, is an active and formidable candidate for the as sembly recommendation and will abide by the assembly, so he has announced.

State Food and Dairy Commissioner; Dr. James Withvcombe. of Corvallls, and C A. Johns, of Baker city. The recommendation of John B. Coffey for the Multnomah County Clerkship leaves Prank W.

OREGON CITY, Or., July 17. (Spe cial.) The failure of the anti-assembly people to ride rough-shod over the will of the majority and capture the Repub lican county assembly here yesterday marks the beginning of a new era in the politics of Clackamas County, which has long been regarded as' a Bourne Chamberlain stronghold. Bourne was bad enough, but when Clackamas elect ed a statement No. 1 legislative ticket and then gave a substantial plurality to Chamberlain, the Republicans who believe that the, party is bigger than the man felt it was time "for the worm to turn," and the sentiment in the direc tion of assembly has been smouldering ever since. Definite expression was made in no uncertain voice yesterday by 105 Re publican delegates from almost every section of Clackamas County. The plat form denounces the gigantio registra tion frauds, opposes proportional repre sentation, annual sessions of the State Legislature, people's inspection of Gov ernment, and Indorses President Taft'a Administration. The action of the county assembly in adjourning until Saturday, July 30, when it will reconvene for the purpose of nominating a county ticket, makes food for thought in the Republican ranks in Clackamas County. Very few candidates for county offices have yet made a public announcement. George C. Brownell will be a candidate for State Senator. In view of the fact that he has publicly denounced the assembly movement, he will lose the support of a large number of assembly Republi cans, and it is regarded as probable that some strong organization man will be given the assembly Indorsement. Walter A. Dimlck Is a candidate for re-election to the lower house of the Legislature. He is also anti-assembly, as are J. L. Krone and E. D. Olds, who are said to be on the slate of the anti assembly people for the Legislative ticket. E. C. Hackett is expected to ask for the assembly Indorsement for Sheriff and D. R. Dlmick, of Canby, has been mentioned as an assembly candi date for this office. He was defeated for. the Republican nomination for Sheriff four years ago by Eli Maddock, who was beaten in the general election by R. B. Beatie. C. M. Lake, of Boring, probably will be the assembly candidate for County Clerk, as w. u. Mulvey, who already has announced his candidacy, will not go into the assembly. There are sev eral candidates for Commissioner. J. J. Mallatt, of Mulino, has stated his in tention to make the race, and it is re ported that either Bud Thompson or Nicholas Blair will enter the lists. W. H. Counsell, of Milwaukie, has been prominently mentioned as an aspirant lor the snerlir s orilce. E. Williams and E. P. Dedman are after the Repub lican nomination for Recorder, and James A. Tufts would like to be Treas urer. Candidates for County Judge, Surveyor and Coroner are rather slow about making their announcements'. The assessor and School Superintendent in Clackamas hold over for another two years. Ernest Mass, of Willamette, has formally entered the fight for Sheriff, and it Is not lkely he will have opposi tion for the nomination on the Demo cratic ticket. With less than two weeRs to elapse before the adjourned meeting of the county assembly, it is expected that candidates for office will spring up like musnrooms. until yesterday It was doubted that the assembly would con clude to recommend a ticket and now that the "cat is out of the bag" there will be a general rearrangement of candidates- for the Republican nomina tion. Even in old Clackamas the as sembly indorsement will be worth any where from 1000 to 1500 votes, and if the assembly men stand pat the candi dates who obtain party indorsement have a leverage that is no small item in the political treasury.
