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. MT.

The city of tents at Ruby Is fsst changing Into a llfs-slied an.l typical Alaskan mining camp.

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.

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 to the pan. Mare Pros pert I as: Tbla plater. 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 tion with the rest of the world.

BULL RUN WORK RUINOUS Daring Process of Hauling Heavy Piping for Water System, ' Much (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.
