(Spe cial.) The nolitlcal scalp of County Assessor J. K. JaeK is demanded hy at lenst two Republicans, who have filed their petitions for the nomination for that office. These are James F. Nelson, of Mullno. who announced his candi dacy several weeks ago, and E. P. Car ter, of Gladstone, who filed his petition this afternoon. Mr. Carter represented Clackamas County In the House of Representatives at the last session of the State Leclslature and was expected to be a candidate to succeed himself. but he had concluded that a chance nt salaried office with a four-year term ttached is not to be lightly passed by. Mr. Jack has had one term of four years and Is a candidate to suc ceed himself, hating filed his petition for the Democratic nomination. Mr. Nelson was Assessor f Clackamas County six years, having preceded the present Assessor in office. Another surprise was sprung jehier- day when it was reported that 31. E. Dunn, a well-known business man ol Oregon City, would become a candidate for the Legislature. F. M. Gill, of- Es tacada, has already filed his petition for the Republican nomination. He was in the House last year as Joint Representative from Hood River and Wasco counties. M. A. Maajone, a mem ber of the last House, will be a candi date to succeed himself. E. D. UIUS also is a candidate for Representative. V. H. Mattoon. for County Commis sioner: J. A. Tufts, for Treasurer; v. L. Mulvey, for Clerk; T. J. Oary, lor School Superintendent: D. T. Meldrum. for Surveyor, and V. . J. uson, ior Coroner, are all candidates to succeed hemselves. .Mr. Wilson filed his petl lon a few days ago. He was appointed by the County Court to succeed Dr. 1. Fox, who resigned, and nas mane very efficient officer. E. C. Hackett has filed his petition for the nomina- ion for Sheriff on the Republican icket. He will be opposed by bnerm T. Mass, Democrat, who has not yet filed his petition. Mr. Hackett was the Republican nominee two years ago and waa defeated by a narrow martin. Llofcd E. Williams will file his petition to succeed himself as County Recorder and he will be opposed by C. W. Strucken. who has already filed his declaration. The Democrats of Clackamas County are slow to file, the only other person beside Assessor Jack being F. II. Dun-a-in. Justice of the Peace at MolHlla. who' seeks re-election.

They made a "sage tea," and their dark, jriossy hair long after middle life was due to this fact. Our mothers have gray hairs before they are fifty, but they are beginning- to appreciate the wisdom of our grandmothers In using ige tea" for their hair and are fast following suit.
