RESULTS III COUNTY
ARE BIG SURPRISE
Multnomah Shows Favoritism
by
Giving La Follette
503 Plurality.
BOURNE TRICK 11TH HOUR

(Continued From First Pasa )
Indited letters, strongly indorsing
Bourne and urging; the support of the.
senior Senator, which were mailed to
their friends and business associates
throughout the county and state.
The coup was perpetrated too lata
to be com batted by Mr. Selling and bis
friends.
Cew rMBtlea" Tan Trtrk.
It did the work in tVs county, which
was turned to Bourne, but the efficacy
ef the eleventh-hour assault on Sell
ing's candidacy availed nothing In the
outside counties, which wltl but few
exceptions, were carried by Selling by
remarkable pluralities.
Bourne's eleventh-rcur campaign
manipulators devoted their attention
too much to Multnomah Courty. Ap
parently they did not consider It neces
sary to look after the "cow counties."
But that Is where Ben Selling won the
Domination.
The nomination of Lafferty over Cir
cuit Judge Gantenbeln was a surprise.
C!yd failed to break Into Lofferty'a
following In the labor orgaplaatlona
to the extent expected. George S.
Fhepherd applied the finishing touches
and attained the full responsibility for
Lafferty's renominating Shepherd was
at no time In tlie running. With him
out of the contest Judge Gantenbeln
would have been nominated, r-hepherd
entered the contest to defeat Ganten
beln and succeeded.
Colter Mrratlk nrarialBK.
Dr. W. I. Cot tel. ex-State Repre
sentative and ex-Councilman, showed
surprising; strength In bis candidacy
for IhUry and Food Commissioner. The
contest for this nomination, particularly
In Multnomah County, was believed to
lie Between J. i. .iitcKie. 01 niinmx-
ton t ountv. anl A. M. Lea. 01 mis city.
Cottel. however. In this county has a
plurality of 3.153 over Mlckle. who Is
his closest competitor. The vote: Cot
tel. HSU; Kdwards. 3S93. Lea MJ2;
Mlckle. 5.SSS.
Probably the greatest surprise was ;
the defeat of B. 1. Slgler for renoml- ,
nation as Assessor, by Henry E. Reed. ;
The result was due directly to a quiet,
vigorous and thorough campaign by j
Reed, who carried his light Into every '
Slgler aver that universal dissatisfac
tion over high taxes, and the fact that
lie was seeking a third term were fac-

tors that contributed materially to his
defeat.
It will not be known who the Re
publicans Indorsed as candidate for
Vice-President until the official count
lias been made. In this county the
names of C. W. Fulton. Thomas McCus
ker, Dan Kellaher, I'nltrd States Sena
tor Borah, of Idaho. and numerous
others were written on the ballot.
Thomas Milburn. a well-known busi
ness man of this city, also received a
complimentary vote for this indorse
ment. Neither will the ten delegates to the
Republican National Convention be
known until the vote of the entire state
has been canvasaed. In a ricld of 18
candidates the following ten received
the highest vows In this county:
Thomas McCuakerof Multnomah. 4712;
Charles W. Ackerson. of Multnomah.
22; Homer C. Campbell, of Multno
mah. 2415: Dr. Henry Waldo Coc. of
Multnomah. 2.SSS; t'harles H- Carey, of

The result as to the nomination of
five candidates for Presidential elector
on the Republican ticket also will not
be Anally tlectded until the vote of the
state has been counted. Judging from
the returns tn this county, however. It
Is evident the voters very generally
complied with the suggestion of the
repreeniattves of the thre candidates
for President and wrote on tnelr ballot
the name of one of the nve following
Republicans: 1. M. Lepper. M. J. Mac
Marion and Grant Thomas, of Multno
mah County; Wllllum Hanley. of Burns,
and H. V. Carter, of Jackson. Mac
Mdhon was the only one of the live
whose name was printed on the ballot
and he received a big vote In Multno
mah County. The report Is that the
names of one of tho other four candi
dates ass written In by the voters In
tiie other counties of the state.
County Clerk Fields, who lost the
nomination for Secretary of State to
Ben W. olrott. incumbent. waa de

missloner Ljghtner probably has been
renominated over T. J. Kreudcr. who
was backed by the labor organisations.
Dan McAllen ran third. The vote of
the three high candidates for this
nomination was: Lafhtner &404. Kreu
dcr SI SO. McAIIen 4465.
With first Fitzgerald and then Mc
Allister leading In the race ofr Sheriff.
Kttxgerald. supported solidly by the
labor organizations, has received the
nomination by a plurality of 93. W.
B. Holllngsworth ran third, but at no
time waa within reaching distance of
the nomination. The vote for the three
was: Fitzgerald 4(00. McAllister 1907.
Holllngsworth J!0.
Although W. II. Chatten. for Joint
Representative, carried Clackamas
County by a small majority, he waa de
feated for renomlnailon by David K.
Lofgren, who has a lead of 6460 In
Multnomah. The vote In this county
was: Chatten, l0. Lofgren 11.720.
The five nomlneea for State Senator
are: I. N. Day 4S7. Robert 8. Farrell
10.201, Dan Kellaher 11.694. Gus C.
Moser and Dr. T. I Perkins 020. C.
W. Hodson was next high man with
8:S and George M. Hyland had 8142.

Judge Morrow was renominated to
succeed himself as Circuit Judge of
Department No. 2 by a two-to-one vote
over his only opponent. William C.
Benbow. .The rote was: Ben bow, 7795;
Morrow. 15.649. George Tazwell. Mu
nicipal Judge, waa nominated for Cir
cuit Judge of Department No. 4 by a
plurality of 6i over Waldemar Seton,
bis nearest rival.
The most decisive victory achieved
was that of Walter H. Evans, who was
nominated for District Attorney by a
plurality of 4011 over Seneca Fouta,
who ran second, polling 6746 votes.
District Attorney Cameron finished
third with Allan R. Joy In fourth place.
Although Indorsed along with other
candidates by organlred labor, the de
tailed vote on the different candidates
shows that Fouts was too much for
the decency of Portland's laboring peo
ple, who refused to swallow the dose
and rebelled. The vote of other candi
dates Indorsed by the trades unions
along with Fouts was: Lafferty, 316;
Kellaher. 11.694: Lwrence, 9562; Mur
nane, 1713: Rector, (002.

John It. ltourette headed the 12
successful candidates for State Repre
sentatives with a vote of 12.097. The
other nomlneea. the order In which they
ran. together with, the total vote each
received, follow: W. Irving Spencer
11.394. L. G. Carpenter 10.714, C. N. Mc
Arihur 10.65s. James D. Abbott 10,193,
Jav H. Upton 970s. Conrad 1. Olson

Nolta 9&2. M. J. Murnane 6713. H. C.
King 8S4J. C. A. Applegren 6295. Of the
above, Lawrence and Murname were In-dnri-eij
by organized labor. The thelrd
candidate of the labor unions for Rep
resentative, It. O. Rector, was defeated
by a narrow margin, his vote being
S02. J. C. Bryant, a member of the
House from this county at the last
session of the Legislature, failed of re
nomlnstion by a slight margin, his tvte
being Dill.
A strong personal following and a
vigorous and effective campaign were
lh inf rlhtitlnr factors to the success
' of John B. Coffey, who was nominated
for County Clerk by a plurality of 2134.
'The vote on this office, was:
coney
,732. itutcninson
3205, Prasp 1241,
Smith 67US.
County Treasurer Lewis. Surveyor
Holbrook and Constable Weinberger
were all renominated by substantial
margins. A. P. Armstrong has been
nominated for School buperlntenaenl
over the Incumbent. R. F. Robinson.
and G. W. Henderson by a plurality of
149. Tbe vote was: Armstrong 7004.
Henderson 6490, Robinson 6666.
Of the minor county offices the race
for Coroner was most Interesting from
the time the count began until the final
totals were determined. For a time
Dr. Bam C Slocum maintained a good
lead and waa regarded a certainty. But
as the count progressed Dr. James C
Hayes, of the East Side, forged to the
lead when the returns from across the
river and the outlying precincts were
reached. Hayes has a lead of 135 over
Slocum. and In all probability bas been
nominated.
With nine candidates In the field for
Justice of the peace, a llve'.y scram
ble for votes followed. J. W. Bell was
renominated by a decisive vcte and
Joseph H. Jones received th other
nomination to succeed Fred L. Olson,
who retired to become a candidate for
Circuit Judge. James F. Cral j finished
In third place. The v.ne for the three
high candidates was: Bell, 6512; Jones,
401: Cratb. 3070.
In many precincts little Interest -as
manifest In the election of precinct
committeemen. In not to exceed one
half of the precincts were there can
didates for this office. In some of the
others, voters wrote In the name of a
neighbor with the result that probably
a majority of the members of the com
mittee a8 It will be finally constituted
will consist of men elected b a scat
tering vote. The persjiinel of the Cen
tral Committee will not be known un
til the official canvass has been com
pleted. At midnight the returns so far as
counted In Multnomah County, with 175
precincts complete out of 1S9, were as

MESSAGES POUR IN
Ben Selling Is Recipient of
Wide Congratulations.
MANY FROM OUT OF STATE
T,e.t Thing Tlint Has Happened to
Oregon In Long Time," Is Sub'
stance of f-ome Promises to
He Kept, He Says.
When it became reasonably certain
yes:erday that. Ben Selling had won the
Republican nomination for United
States Senator, congratulatory tele
grams began to pour into his office by
the doKens, not only from Oregon, but
from many other parts of the United
States. At 8 o'clock last night 150
messages were counted, each bearing a
word of gratification over the outcome
Many of the telegrams, besides, con
gratulating Jlr. Selling on his success.
expressed the opinion that It is the
best thing that has happened to Ore
eon in a long time.
In addition to the telegrams Mr..
Selling was busy all afternoon answer
Ins telephone calls from all over Ore-
eon and many parts of Washington,
It was estimated that he answered no
fewer than 200 calls durine the day.
Dozens of persons visited the office
In the Selling building and extended
congratulations In person and still
others sent notes of congratulation by
messer.Kers.
Last night Mr. Selling made the fol
lowing public statement:
"I am deeply gratified with the con
fldence reposed in me by voters of Ore
gon. The people have spoken and in
doing so have chosen me as the Itepub
llcan candidate for United States Sen
ator, the highest office within their
power to give. It lias been the work
of friends and loyal supporters all over
Oreeon and my promise and pledge to
them Is constant attention and effort
in Oregon's behalf, earnest support of
the people's measures, to the end that
progressive legislation may be taken
up t'o a greater extent by the National
Congress.
"This is an important time in Ore
eon's history b. time when commercial
Irterests of the state may be oroao
ened. resulting in international com
merce of a far greater volume than at
present enjoyed. As Senator of this
great state, which I now feel certain
I shall be, I will do everything- within
my power to push forward Oregon's
Interests."

It was estimated yesterday that ho
less than J100.000 changed Tiands on the
Senatorial end of the election. Bet

favor of Ben Selling. Slight odds were
offer?i but there were few takers. As
the week wore on the money wormed
along to even, and remained that way
until Friday afternoon, when the Sell
ing supporters were offering odds of
10 to "8. There was considerable bet
ting on these figures Friday.
When returns began to come In from
Multnomah County the situation
changed and much money was lost by
Bourne supporters. Subsequent re

money to be found.
On the Presidential fight there was
considerable money cnanged hands on
even bets of Taft and Roosevelt. One
bet was made at even money that
Roosevelt would poll more votes than
Taft and La Follette combined. There
were many ardent supporters of Taft
and Roosevelt who bet even money on
their respective candidates.
In the offices down the list from
United States Senator there was prac
tically no betting. There was con
siderable money posted at the Court
house on County Commissioner Light
ner, but there were but few takers,
even when odds rose as high as five to
three.
Small bets were made on Judge
Gantenbein for representative to Con

money, even at odds.

CANDIDATE NAILS THE "LIE"
W. B. Holllngsworth Declares He
Never Double-Crossed Anybody.
In an Interview with reference to
the results of the present primary
election, W. B. Holllngsworth, one of
the candidates for Sheriff, made the
following statement:
"It looks as If we have lost the fight
and while I am, of course, somewhat
d.isappointed. 1 feel a good deal worse
for some of my friends who have given
me their loyal support. We have, how
ever, the satisfaction of knowing that
we made a clean, honorable nght and
during the whole campaign there has
been no mud slinging on the part of
any of the 'Holly' boosters and we
can look the whole world in the face
without being ashamed, knowing that
we have nothing to apologize for.
"I want to thank each and every man
who voted for me and also at this time
from the bottom of my heart thank
the good fellows who worked for me
and supported me so loyally without
promise of reward or personal interest
other than that of pure friendship. It
has been a great satisfaction to me to
find that I have so many warm friends,
who have shown their willingness to
neglect their own affairs in order to
assist me.
"For myself personally I have no
regret: In fact were it not for the dis
appointment which this means to my
wife and children, I would feel that I
was a winner by losing. So long as
the wife and babies are well and
hearty I am not worrying as to the
future. I am not a politician and
never expect to be. have been a busi
ness man all my life and will get back
to where I belong at an early date.
"There Is one lie that I wish to nail
right here that was circulated by some
of my opponents during the campaign,
being to the effect that I bad some
time or in some way double-crossed
someone else. I defy any .man on
earth to meet me face to face and
show where or when or In what manner
I ever double-crossed anyone, either In
politics or otherwise, and I have made
this statement before during tne cam
paign, but now wish to give It full
nublicity. Out or 33 deputies in tne
Sheriff's office and tax department 30
of them supported me staunchly and
the only double-cross that has ever
been connected with me Is that which
was handed to me by certain parties
that had promised me their support,
but failed when the time came to
make good the promise. Some of my
friends from time to time nave toia
mo that no man could win In politics
without being crooked or using foul
tactics, but I would prefer to lose in a
clean fight such as we have carried on
than win by dishonorable methods.

M CUSKER IS HOPING
La Follette Backer Doesn't
Concede Defeat.
OUTSIDE VOTE WATCHED
Different Campaign Headquarter
Scanning Returns From Up
State Districts News of Vic
tory Sent to T. K.
"Not until Monday morning when
the complete election returns are in
will I concede the nomination of
Roosevelt in Oregon over La Follette."
This was the declaration yesterday
afternoon of Thomas McCuslter, cam
paign manager in Oregon for Senator
La Follette. Mr. McCusker believed
his man will nose in ahead of Roose
velt before the returns are complete.
"I have been told." said Mr. Mc
Cusker. "that I might as well con
cede the state to Roosevelt. This I
have refused to do because I believe
he has a chance. So confident have I
been that I have not as yet tele
graphed the Senator who is now in
California the incomplete returns. I
believe the vote from the more distant
counties will change the complexion
of the election. At least It will show
the La Follette power to be stronger
than is conceded by the opposition at
present. I do not draw conclusions
from incomplete returns and for that
reason I will not concede La Follette
Is second in the race until Monday
morning when the vote is all counted."

the Roosevelt committee to Mr. Roose
