!.,! That J. C. Urtn, of the
Public Service CommlMlon. soon will
hiri to nik up his mind whether he
will a candidate acalnst Gornr
Hay. of vhoia administration he t
now a r-ari. I certain, but Mr. Law-rn'-
at thla time refuse to discuss
tne subject In any of Its phaws. This
situation ha been brouifht about
through the death of H. A. Fatrrhll.l,
rnairtnaa of the Public Hervlre Com
mlulon, who waa burled last Wednee
uay. For the next few years at least tha
heavy work will fall on .Mr. Lawrence
If he d.xMes to remain. lie will with
out question be made chairman of that
body tnnuM ha decide to continue In
tne work In which he la now enajaced.
Wtth Mr. Falrchlld. ha was appointed
when ti.e original Railroad Commission
was organised and the law went Into
effect. lie nsa followed Its worklnaa
throusch the -ievloue paths that hare
led up to the present situation and he
Is now the only man In the State of
Waahlnirtua with a sufficient grasp of
affairs to pll t the Commission, wltb
its icreatly added powers, out of tha
wilderness without causing an extend
td aal prolonged delay.
Realcaatloa Haadleaa) Seem.
It Is arcuej that he would be an
easier man to replace than Mr. Falr
rhiM. but If he should rrslicn to run
ssaln.'t his chief, the work would fall
upon JrM. S. JonfS and he has been
with the Commission only a compara
tively short time. That tha resigna
tion ot Mr. Lawrence, who will be tha
next chairman of the board, should ha
remain, would be a severe handicap
to ti.e Commission work In thla state
and alve It a setback for a much
lonsr-r period than wtll be occasioned
by the death of sir. Falrchlld alone. Is
admitted on all sides.
on the othe- hand. It Is claimed that
If Mr. Lawrence goes out at thla time
It will permit the oriranlsatlon of a
new body of men to take up the work
where It baa been left oft, or rather at
the point to which It waa carried by
Mr. FatThlld and tha other members
of tha Commission. Thla argument
-lll no doubt be advanced by Mr.
Lawrence In event he declines to stay
on the Commission, but seeks other
t.n ileal honors than those he now en
Jt. Falthfal Appelate Seaakt.
That Mr. Lawrence la In an embar-rassin-r
aa woll aa delicate position la
well known and therefor he Is almost
prohibited from lalklna about tha
mattt-r. But In all probability he will
oriault with various -of Ms political
sdv!cr before maklna any decision.
At lat that t the Impression about
the statehouse.
An added Interest has been siren to
tha situation by the statement Just Is-sue-1
by governor Hay In which ha
tavs mat ha would like to appoint a
tun to succeed Mr. Falrchlld who will
Ttake tha Commission work his Ufa
career, ao that he will be above petty
roiiriral turmoil, an. I. like Mr. Fair--hili.
be strnrs-ly entrenched that
tj executive would even think of re
mo y I r. c him to five place to some fol
lower. i-houl.l Mr. Lawrence reslcn. there
la no question but that Oovernor Hay
won) i oiler the place to Senator W. H.
Taullamus. of llerr County. Senator
f'auliamua w.is one of the orlclnal
men who fouirht for a Itallroad Com
mission and he rv always taken a
keen Interest In tlie work, being- per
haps as fjmllUr with the duties of that
body as any other'person In the state
not connected with the department.
But as yet no man has even been
agreed upon for Mr. Falrchllda place,
aa Senator I'liilhamua Is not an attor
ney and therefore Is hardly eligible to
ucreel the late chairman.
The xarancy will be hard to nil. for
the men who measure up to Mr. Falr
MU1 s stan.Urd are most of them
Irawina from 10 u.)0 a year up and the
state ravs but half mat sum.
If Mr. Lawrence decidee to be a can
didate he will icreatly complicate tha
political punle. If he decides to stay
out tha Birht rosy r.ot be so Interest
ire aa la now predicted.

Yukon Rler. " miles below fort Gib

plai-er region about miles Inland
from the river. Ths first news of ha
dlsc-ivery of gnM In paying quanti
ties In thl district was spread sbrosd
last April, and since thst time an In
rush of people has swelled the popula
tion of the district.
Makers came first, foot-loose.' and
some worthless men among them, and
blanketed the whole area mhers a pos
sibility of gold-bearing gravel was
surmised Assoclstion claims of 10
acres each were staked by the thou
sands, and then the relspse cajne. These

On Flint Creek, across a small aivino
from Long, many favorable prospects
have been shown up. but nothing to
justify any undue excitement. CSlen
Gulch, a small tributary of Flint, flow
ing Into It at about midway, haa made
ths most favorable showing of any
stream In tha entlra district Laymen,
sinking to a- depth of S5 feet on a
claim about one-half mile aviove tha
mouth of the stream, struck a body of
pay that panned from 5 cents to I..1T

Immediately, prospectors commenced
to take notice, and at present large
numbers of mine operators from other
districts are coming to Ruby, with the
Intention of siding its development as
well as to get their share of the gold.
The coming Winter will witness more
extensive prospecting of a thorough
kind than has ever before bean at
tempted In the district. In the neigh
borhood of 1000 people will Winter in
the region, and If there la any extended
body of pay. It will be found.
A great hindrance to the development
of the region has been. In addition t
tha "claim-hogs." the high freightage
rates to tha creeks from the town.
Freighters have charged frrtm 0 to 40
cents a pound for transporting food
and supplies, but the proposed con
struction of a. good trail to the creeks
will. In a measure, relieve this.
A sawmill Is on the way to the new
camp alreadv. and a small brewery will
be installed there before Winter comes.
A telephone line from Ruby to Meloxl
about four miles below, has put the
young city In telegrsphlc communica

(Damage Done by Trucks.
People : Are Disappointed.
ORESHAM. Or., Oct. 14. (Special.)
By an order from tha County Court
all road work In Multnomah County
has been discontinued, except' the com
pletion of a few unfinished plecea of
new road and necessary repairs.
The order Is a sore disappointment
to the people, who had hoped to see
many miles of new road completed this
year, but the action of. tha .court is
said to have been caused by' the ex
cessive cost of repairing the old roads,
which were badly damaged by the con
struction of the second Bull Run pipe
line and the Mount .Hood Railway.
Both of these bl enterprises were
carried on last Winter, and practically
every road was ruined. It is estimated
by the road superintendents that the
damage was fully 1100,000. More than
that much baa been spent In Eastern
Multnomah during the present year,
and the existing roads are in excellent
-condition again, yet very little new
work has been done.
In one part of the county, near Pleaa
ant Home, the people are -subscribing
work In order to get a road to the
Mount Hood depot. The railway com
pany has offered to furbish gravel for
tha actual cost of hauling, and the
work will be done even though the
County Court haa given orders to stop.
On the Wlhlon road the people have
subscribed about 1200 to have that
thoroughfare graveled a half mile. It
will cost 1500. but the County Court
has not accepted the subscription yet,
nor haa It allowed the work to' pro
ceed. Delegations of prominent taxpayers
have been calling on the County Com
missioners .during the past week, but
have receives scant encouragement.
