in. icArinur, apeaner ot ine nouse
at the last Legislature, is receiving
much encouragement in his vigorous
campaign to capture the Republican
nomination for Representative in Con
gress from the Third District, com
prising Multnomah County. The main
fight apparently lies between McAr
thur and A. W. Lafferty, incumbent, as
Oeorge S. Shepherd and Nelson R.
Jacobson, the other candidates, are not
Showing great strength.
Mr. Lafferty, now serving his second
term, was nominated two years ago by
a small plurality, his opposition being
split between three rival candidates.
The vote stood as follows: A. W. Laf
ferty, 9888; C. U. Gantenbein. 9266;
Ralph C. Cylde, 4647; George S. Shep
herd, 3887.
It is apparent that the opposition to
Lafferty is again divided, while Shep
herd, to all appearances, is not so
ftrong as he was two years ago and
Jacobson is comparatively unknown.
Two Races Prove StrenKth.
McArthur has been elected to the
Legislature twice from Multnomah
County and has proved himself a good
vote-getter. In the primaries two years
ago, when Lafferty received 9888 votes
for Congress, McArthur stood third for
the Legislature in a list of 26 candi
dates, with 12,071 votes.
While in the Legislature he sup
ported the workingmen's compensation
act, and by so doing alienated the more
radical labor union element, but, on
the other hand, gained the friendship
of many laboring men and others who
were favorable to the bill. .
The very large affirmative vote
which this measure received at the spe
cial referendum election last November
is taken by McArthur as a good omen,
and he is not at all alarmed over the
workingmen's Political Club's recent
indorsement of Lafferty's candidacv.
McArthur is known to have a large
zoiiowing among the women voters.
owing to his espousal of the cause of
woman suffrage two years ago and hi
subsequent support of a number of
legislative bills in which women were
Interested. His platform contains i
plank favoring National woman suf
frage, but Lafferty has thus far re
mained silent upon this subject. In
his platform McArthur comes out
strongly for the development of nat
ural resources, an open Columbia
stiver, a more vigorous reclamation
policy, free tolls for American coast
wise vessels going through the Pan
ama Canal and a six-year term fo!
President, all of which appeal to the
people of this Congressional district.
Lafferty's Frotrunme Radical.
Lafferty's programme indorses Gov
ernment ownership of railroads, tele
graph and telephone companies and
the abolition of express companies by
the extension of the parcel post system.
His platform is generally hostile to
the business interests of the commu
nity and is looked upon as most radi
cal.
Lafferty's political record is also the
subject of serious attack in many
ciuurters, owing to his alignment with
the Bull Moose party after the Repub
licans of this district nominated him
for Congress two years ago. McAr
thur, on the other hand, has always
laenimea mmseif with the regular Re
publican party. He declined the Bull
Moose indorsement for the Legislature
at the last general election and took
the stump for the Taft electoral ticket.
His friends declare that he is entitled
to the support of Republicans gener
ally on account of his past services to
the party, but that Lafferty is entitled
to no consideration on this account.
In this connection, say McArthur's
irienos, ine null .Moose electors who
participated in the Republican Drlma..
ries two years ago and cast their votes
ior Laiierty will not figure in the
coming contest, as they are now regis
tered in the Progressive party and can
not vote as Republicans. Thev est!
mate that Lafferty will lose at least a
thousand votes, because of the new ar
rangement, which puts the Progressive
voters in a party of their own.
State CampalKned With Seeds.

uregoir to make a campaign for re
election, but has flooded the mails with
garden seeds and copies of his
speeches. McArthur has been waging a
vigorous campaign for many weeks

of voters. He is recognized as a good
campaigner, and his friends are freely
predicting that he will be nominated

"But us I was about to say. this is a
serious matter. I have a confession
to make."
"A who?"
"A confession. I want to break down
and confess that storm or calm, rain
or shine, the Sells-Floto Circus and
Buffalo Bill (himself) surely will be
in Portland for a two days' stay, Mon
day and Tuesday, May 18 and 19.
Tou've heard that all before, but I
wanted to repeat it
"And besides that I want to confess
that it's the best show in the world,
that Buffalo Bill will be with us once
more to salute his admirers from the
saddle, and to introduce his riders his

soldiers and' ranchgirls in the specta

trains lions and tigers with a buggy

properly go with the biggest show on

simply break down and confess that
our parade will be two miles long
when it winds its way through the

That parade will be led by Buffalo

Improvement of Tongue Point Crossing
through the adoption of a plan for a
straight dredged cut in place of the
exlsttng torturous channel, are again
to be favored when the road is ready
for use as Henry L. Beck, Inspector of
the Seventeenth Lighthouse District,
nas plans under way for a new system
of navigation aids to mark the cut.
rive lights are now required there at
ight, two being gas buoys and three
post lanterns. Since Mr. Beck assumed'
charge of the district more lights were
added there to the satisfaction of
pilots. Now he proposes, with the new
channel about to be realized, to use the
two gas buoys on the Crossing and he
reasons they will be ample. Of course
the removal of buoys on the existing
channel hinges on whether it will be
abandoned. The dredge Columbia is
working on the straight cut and she
will provide sufficient depth and width
for the Government dredge Clatsop to
follow and complete the digging.
