LOMBARD MAKING CANVASS Considerable Cncertalnly Exists on Account of Possible Change of Charter and Consequently Cltj- Daces Go Begging. With the arrival uext week of Mayor Rustiiient rrom wonoiuiu ana iiu' Tila points, after a wedding trip of Mayoralty campaign in Portland will be started In earnest between mm ana uy Lombard. That Mr. Rushlight will be a candi date for re-election there Is none to deny; In fact, all that remains to make him . .... k i hi. Awm fnrmtl Announce ment. Ills friends understand that be will be "In the race" ana tney ro working for him right now to that end. Lombard has been an avowed candi date for a good while, and is maims, eren now. a lively campaign. He de- .-.- h m im -nlnr f r continue this WOrk to the end of the battle, which will be May 3. when the primaries win do ueiu Discussing the situation yesterday xr- y m mm --t that h mould be a candidate for Mayor on the commission charter, ir that instrument sunn m adopted by the people May 2. (artrr nerhlu BeserrcA. "I ara in the race for good government.- said Mr. Lombard, "and if the people adopt the commission charter I will be a candidate for Mayor under its provisions. 1 believe In commission government and have recently spent much time in studying It. I have not ss vet seen the charter proposed for Portland, and for that reason cannot at this time say whether I favor it. but will say that, if It Is all right. I will favor it. "I believe the commission plan is the right thing and that a good commission charter will help In getting good gov ernment." Never has there been a situation In politics so peculiar as that now exist ing. With the probability of the adop tion of the commission charter in May. the candidates for various offices hardly know where to start In or leave off. If they make a campaign for the Council. City Attorney. Municipal Judge or Treasurer, their efforts will be abso lutely wasted If the commission form la adopted, for it will change the entire city government. Aadltar Only Office Asesjred. There is Just one position that Is se cure that of Auditor; this will still be elective. A. L. Barbur. who now occu pies the position, la a candidate for re election, and Dudley Clarke, at present reading clerk of the House in the Leg islature, has announced himself for the place. At present there are IS members in the City Council, but If the commission charter la adopted these will be out of a Job and a commission of five will take Its place. Consequently, those who are to make the rate for the Council will have lost all of their time and energy. In rase the commission charter is car ried. "SHOPPER" IS DEBARRED AVoodUim Collie Trained to Market Doomed to Wear Muxxle. New shopping arrangements must be made In the family of Miss N M. Pierce, living in the Woodlawn district, elnce an edict of the Municipal Court has made it Impossible for the former mes senger to serve longer In that capacity. As the messenger is a big collie dog and can carry packages only in his teeth, an order of the court that he must go constantly muzzled has the effect of "putting him out of business." Miss Pierce was in court yesterday at the complaint of A. Benson, a neigh bor, who said that the collie had a playful habit of running after his bi cycle and attempting to bite him. He supported his charge by showing that the mall carrier tn the district carried a revolver to protect himself from the pet. Miss Pierce said that she kept the animal muzzled except when he was sent to the butcher shop, to which he had been trained. On her promise that the muzzle would be made a perma nent fixture, the case was continued indefinitely. REMEDY DECLARED NEED PUtrtct Attorney Evans Speaks in Behalf of Cnfortnnate. Walter Evans. District Attorney, guest and speaker of the Men's Club of the Sunnyside Methodist Church Wednesday nlgbt. reviewed vice con ditions and the need of remedial laws for handling the criminal classes. Mr. Evans said that under present conditions the laws fall far short of effecting reforms where reforms are needed, but simply fetter the hands of the District Attorney who desires to help the unfortunate. He contended that there should be some way by which those starting; on a downward course could be helped by being placed where they would have a chance to reform. Mr. Evans pointed out where the men composed of the Sunnyside Club" might be. helpful in reformatory work, and declared It should be the duty of the prosecuting officers to be helpful- to the' unfortunate, and not merely prose cute the cases with a view to punishment.
