The application made Friday be fore the Supreme Court of Washington for a writ of mandate rrauirini ih State Attorney-General and the State Industrial Commission to sue the Du pont Powder Company and anv other delinquent employers owing money to the powder fund and other risks In cluded In class 4 will probably result la a long-drawn-out legal contest. The application waa made on behalf of ChrlsUan Rosebacb. whose home Is at Flalrmore. Alberts, Canada. He is the father o Miss Tlllle Rosebacb, one of the young women killed In the nowder factory tire at Cbehalla last Fail, when seven other young women lost their lives. While the action at hand Includes all delinquent powder companies, it is known that the Luponta are especially a' men mi. since tney nave declined to pay. the presumption being that they prefer to be sued and have their legl rlghta tested. It has been given out that the Duponts. In the event that thev lose, will take the case to the Supreme Court of the United Statea. and It la a certainty that If the state should lose the case would also go to the highest court la the Land. The fight that would be nut o against paying the claim would raise many points of the constitutionality of the liability law. passed by the last Legislature. It Is known that since the casualty companies have been virtually put out or Business in Washington by the passage of the Industrial Insurance law they are anxious to have the courts go Into every phase of that measure to see If a loophole could be found in the act to make it possible for them to again do business In the state. The writ of mandamus la returnable February 29. It requires the State At-torney-Oeneral and the State Industrial Insurance Commissioners to begin suit against the delinquent companies or show cause why they have not done so. The powder fund Is delinquent with large claims outstanding against It. SEASIDE. Or., Feb. IS. (Special.)

Wh the bank Is fully organised probably he will act as cashier. Alexander Gilbert.

CNIVERPITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Feb. 2. (Special.) Because of class room and schedule congestion at the University some of the faculty mem bers have been forced to place 7 o'clock a M. and 4 o'clock P. M. classes on their roster. In time past there have been a number of classes meeting late In the afternoon, but never before have classes met earlier than S o'clock In the morning. The early morning gatherings are un der the guidance of the professors In the literature and education departments SALEM. Or.. Feb. 26. (Special.) Possibly eclipsing the Interest that has been shown here so far in the state campaign, are the small wars which sre being waged over the various county offices. For so many elections a number of the offices have gone practically un contested that county fights heretofore have developed only a medium degree of Interest, but this year it la different. All of the fights are apparently to be waged between Republicans at the primaries, as so far but one Democrat has appeared and he Is a candidate for the lower house In the State Legisla ture. W. M. Bushey, incumbent, and L. J. Aaams, the latter of SUverton, are candidates for the county judgeship and a line of demarcation Is already strongly shown. The sentiment that prevails here seems to be In favor of the re-election of Judge Bushey. but what the general attitude in the out side precincts Is Is not so definitely known. For the office of Sheriff there are four candidates. These are: William Esch, Deputy Sheriff; Ira Hamilton. Chief of Police of Salem; Q. B. Trask, of Stayon. and J. E. Zelgler, of Gervala, Five candidates are out for the office o County Assessor. These are: John F. Davis. Albert H. Gllle. Charles Lembcke, A. C Lib by and B. F. West. lmbcke is from Hubbard and Llbby from Jefferson. Lembcke. was former ly holder of the office ahd Libby for two terms was a member of the execu tive committee. OUle is now a deputy in the office and West has always been actively Interested In Republican poli tics in the county. Tkree WtaU Be Clerk. S. Z. Culver, deputy In the office. Max Oehlar. former deputy and Phillip A. Livesley are candidates for the office of County Clerk. Livesley Is from Woodburn and the other from Salem. For Treasurer. J. G. Moore, of Salem, Incumbent, and W. R. Townsend, of Woodburn. are the candidates For School Superintendent. XV. M. Smith, incumbent, and Clarence Phillips, of Mount Angel, are candidates. J. T. Beckwlth, Incumbent and Ben EL Rob ertson of Turner are both after a )nb nn County Commissioners. A. M. Housework Drudgery ! Housework is drudgery or the weak woman. She brushes, dusts and scrubs, or is on ber feet all day attending to the many details of the household, her bsck ach ing, her temples throbbing, nerves quivering under the stress of pain, possibly dizzy feelings. Sometimes rest in bed is not refreshing, because the poor tired nerves do not permit of refreshing sleep. The real need of weak, nervous women ts satisfied by Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, and as Mrs. Briggs and others testify : It Makes Weak Women Strong and Sick Women Well. This "Prescription" removes trie cause ot women's weaknesses, heals Inflammation and ulceration. It tranauilizcs the nerves, eacouraies the appetite mad induce restful sleep. Dr. Pierce is perfectly willing to let everyone know whst his "Favorite Prescription" contains, a complete list of in gredients on the bottle-wrapper. Do not let any druggist persuade yon that his unknown composition is "just ss food" in order that he may make a bigger profit. Irs. Brazili, Briggs, of 529 N. Washington St., Delphos, Ohio, writes: "Having taken your 'Favorite Prescription, for a bad ca.e of intestinal disease and constipation with woman's ills, for which I was almost nnable to do any thing, I think I am safe in saying that there are no remedies in the world like Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and Pm-lfying Lotion Tablets.' I am now enjoying the best of health, and thank Dr. Pierce for his wonderful medicines which have done me a world of good." aUa-Baiooa.
