OREGON 10 BE BUSY
POLITICALLYIH 1916
Officially Confirmed
National, State and County
Offices to Be Filied-Early
Campaigning is Likely.
ASPIRANTS ARE PLENTIFUL
Xew Election Lavs Bring About Dif
ferent Conditions in Voting for
Presidential Electors and
Affecting Delegates.
SALEM, Or, June 27. (Special.)
Next year will ba a busy one politi
cally in Oregon. Aside from Its being
"presidential year." probably a record
number of state, district and county
offices are to be filled. While it is a
little early for announcements, it is
safe to say that there will be no
scarcity of aspirants for office, for
already political bees are buzzing in
many bonnets, and the hats will be
tossed into the ring when it is be
lieved the time is auspicious.
Campaigning will begin early in the
year for the primary in May. For the
first time each elector of the three
leading political parties Republican.
Democratic and Progressive thanks to
the last Legislature for repealing the
old U'Rej law, will be entitled to vote
for six aspirants for delegates to the
National conventions and for five
aspirants for presidential electors.
Delegates Pay Own Expenses.
Under the old law the individual
could vote for only one candidate for
delegate and one for presidential elec
tor The new law provides that an
elector may vote for two candidates
for delegates in his congressional dis
trict, and for four from the state-at-large
under the present apportionment.
tie may vote' tor five presidential elec
tors. The new law also provides that
delegates to National conventions must
pay their own expenses to the con
ventions, which will save the state
about $10,000 every four years.
Next in importance to the Presiden
tial race will be those for Representa
tives In Congress in the three Oregon
districts. While the present Represen
tatives have not expressed themselves,
it is believed that W. C. Hawiey, who
has made an enviable record as Repre
sentative of the First District; N. J.
Sinnott, the popular Representative of
the Third, and C. N. ("Pat") McArthur.
representing the Third District, will
again seek the togas. It is hardly
probable that serious opposition to
either of them will develop.
Olcott Expected to Ran.
While Ben W. Olcott has not an
nounced that'he will again try for Sec
retary of State, his friends say there is
no doubt that he will be an aspirant.
County Clerk Coffey, of Multnomah
County, it is said, has long had a desire
to represent his constituents as Secre
tary of State, but whether he will enter
the race remains to be seen. At least
another Portland man, according to re
port, would like to fill the office.
Successors to Frank A. Moore, Chief
Justice, and George H. Burnett, mem
ber of the Supreme Court bench, also
will be named at the 1916 election, and
it is known that both of them will
be candidates for the office. Chief
Justice Moore is the dean of the bench,
and no men stand higher as judges in
the state than he and Justice Burnett.
Friends of both are of the opinion
that they will not have opposition for
the Republican nominations.
Two members of the Public Service
Commission, formerly the State Rail
road Commission, are to be elected
next year, one representing the district
east of the Cascades and the other re
presenting the district west of the
mountains. The districts were fixed
by a law passed at the recent session
of the Legislature, which makes it im
possible for both Clyde B. Aitchison and
Thomas K. Campbell, present commis
sioners, to be re-elected, both of them
living west of the mountains. Whether
they will be candidates for the nomin
ation in the western district neither
has said, but it is probable that at least
one will be.
District Attorneys to Be Kuned.
All district attorneyships are to be
filled at the election next year and
numerous existing contests are expect
ed. Circuit Judges are to be elected in
the following districts:
