County Clerk Fields yesterday thiew up his bands In despair when asked for the nuiys of the !emocrnttc immln es. In nearly every preel net the I Vmorratu electors wrote lonw II i.ts of candidates on the nomiti.itltiff ballots. Many wrote names of U publicans. :otr.e of which were on the Republican ballot.

Governor Chamberlain's followers are preparing. to make a bis? effort to make tht ir man tl'e " people's choir?" over M. M. Cake., the itepuhllran nominee. If Chamberlain can defeat Cake the State ment No. 1 Republican legislators will be liound tt tdeet him United States Se n f tor, John A. Jeffrey is probably nomi nal rd for Congress. He was opposed by A. J. Derby. As the party vote for Congressman is the basis for recog nition under the primary law, Demo trats will be careful to run candidates for that office in the two districts in order to perpetuate their party org-anl-fs. tion.

FROM BANK TO JEWELRY Wlmt Whs Onee the Home of a Hnnk Is Being: Transformed Into a Hljr Jewelry Serre. Tn the gradual growth of a town into a metropolis nothing is more interesting than to note the modernizing Influence on the older buildings. As a concrete example, the building at 2titi Morrison street, formerly occupied by the Security Savings & Trust Company. For several weeks carpenters and masons have been busy remodeling the exterior and interior for Jaeger Bros.. Jewelers, of Fifth street, who upon Its completion this week, will occupy it. The show-windows are a row of heavy plate glass, with prismatic glass tops, to reflect light Into the store, doing away, to a large degree, with artificial light. Tiled floors, solid mahogany wall cases, with old brass trimmings, and a four-foot mahogany paneling above the cases, hand some leather settees between these wall cases, and metal lighting fixtures in keep ing with the rest of the furnishings show to what a degree the modern storekeeper exerts himself to surround his patrons with every comfort and luxury. Two large fire and burglar-proof vaults, protected by the most modern burglar alarm system complete what will un doubtedly be as tine a jewelry store as there is in the Paciiic Northwest. Jaeger Bros, will move into their new home the latter part of the week, at which time they will have the house warming.

He hns decided to press ilrst. the i liai'Ko of converting state money to personal use. Mr. Manning will per sonally look after the prosecution of Kitss, as well as Hops Indicted associates. T. T. Burkhart nnd John Aitchlson. Hurkhart will he second lo nppear for trial and Aitchlson third. Fifteen witnesses have been suhpenned by Mr. Mamilmf lor the trial. The princi pal witnesses for the state will be J. V. Ferauson and George Hlack, who experted the hooks of the Insolvent bunk, and M. B. Rankin, who borrowed school funds from Ross. The other witnesses are book keepers, accountants and employes nf the bank, nnd a larse iercentH(re will appear in the role of unwilling witnesses. Permission was secured yesterday by Mr. Manning from the Federal Court for removal of the Title Guarantee & Trust Comiviny s books to Salem for use during the trial. These books are expected to play a strong part in the prosecution and the order for tiielr removal to Salem was a decided point in favor of the state. At the conclusion of the Ross trial Burk hart will be taken before the court to answer to a similar charge, and following Aitchison's appearance a second charge will be taken up against Ross, that of larceny of state funds. A second larceny charge and a charge of loaning state money out ot Interest will be pressed later, not only against Ross, but against the other two. There are 12 cases to be tried In all. and the Marion County court will be kept busy for some time. "While Mr. Manning succeeded in secur ing an early date for the first trial of Ross, the other cases have not yet been set. He intends taking advantage of the tirst open dates on the Marion County calendar, however. lebnte on l of O. Appropriation. In the debate held last night in the V. M. C.

It was also believed that the proposed yearly appropriation would afford opportunity for fraud. Dr. J. R. Wilson, A. L. Veazle, R. S. J. McAllister and others who fa vored the measure declared that the fail ure to maintain tne State University has been and is a. reflection upon the etate. It was pointed out that in past years more Oregon students have been enrolled In Stanford than at Bugene and that un less the State University la supported In a proper way, this ratio will again pre vail. l"rge Change In Bridge Site. Frank J. Perkins, who is urging a change in the location of the West Side landing of the Madison-j-treet bridge when it is rebuilt, says that as the bridge now stands the Fast Side landing Is partly on private property. He contends that by changing the West Side landing to Jefferson :itrect, one block south. and buitdlnir from the harbor'line from Hawthorne ave nue it will take the bridge off this property. Mr. Perkins says tliat the Fast Side approach encroaches on the property owned by the O'Reilly Bros., who will object when It conies to plac ing a permanent steel structure.
