WILSON FACES BIG TASK by Applications Outnumber Places Wide Margin and Man "With. Good Pull Will Stand Best Chance of Landing. nornnviiK NEWS BETREA.TJ, "Wash Ington, Nov. U.-Xow la the time for all loyal Democrats, hankering after public office, to file their applications. Hther uo their Indorsements and round up their -influence." for on next March 4 Woodrow Wilson will begin the gigantic task of reorganising the Government administrative force, and be will have at his disposal eeraj thousand Jobs, ranging in salary from aaa ti7 aaa ai-rd all beyoiKt l" ..ivti rvlce. "To the vie tors belong the spoils." and to the n.rrt as a result of the recent ...m hpA thousands public offices which have been filled by Republicans for the past 1 years. It will be impossible for President Wilson to fill all these numerous of fices as soon as he takes possesion of the White Houe and several months may elapse before all the Republican incumbents are ousted, for the offices at the disposal of the new President are scattered over the length and breadth of the land and there will be hundreds of applicants for each of-, flee; the greater the salary the greater the demand. .Senators to Do Appointing. Democratic Senators and representa ,ni rt man v of these appoint ments. Drobably all that are purely local to their states, such as collectors of customs and collectors of internal revenue. United States Marshals and TM.trlct Attorneys, local land oiricers, mte.. while the Democratic Representa tives will have the postofflce appoint ments. If custom be followed. Some n.,-h-i! noiitmasters have been hrnue-ht within the civil service by ex ..itivo order, but there Is no certainty ik. hpt rrir will be allowed to .lanH- it mftv be temporarily revoked until Democratic postmasters are in stalled and then put back In working ' order. The highest salaried offices that will be at the disposal of Mr. Wilson on March 4 are found in the diplomatic service, where there are. ten AmDas sadors at $17,500 a year, eight minis ters at 112.000 and 28 ministers at $10, 000 with a whole raft of minor diplo matic offices at salaries ranging from $1000 to $5000. not to mention the .con sular service, which Is stocked heavily with positions paying all the way from $1000 to $12,000 annuauy. ui course, the salaries of Ambassadors and Min isters are not in fact as large as they seem, for the foreign representatives of this Government are called upon to entertain more or less extensively, and as a rule only wealthy men can af ford to fill the office of Ambassador, the salary of $17,500 being totally ln adeauate. However, some of the Min isters save money, as do the better grade of Consuls. . President Names Owi Cabinet. The selection of a Cabinet, made up of the heads of the various depart ments. Is peculiarly the function of the President himself, for the members of his Cabinet are his official advisors on all Government questions and he reserves the right to make these ap nointments entirely on his own re sponsibility. If so disposed. But each one of the Government departments has from one to four assistant secre taries, usually appointed through "null," and the assistant secretaries command salaries of $5000 each. Each Cabinet officer also has a private sec retary at $2500, but this Is his own patronage. Some of the very best "picking" for office-seekers Is to be found In the de partmental service at Washington. True, most of the clerkships are pro tected by civil service, but there Is a - small army of bureau chiefs at salaries ranging from $4000 to $$000, who are appointed by the President, and hold office during his pleasure. Most of these offices are filled on recommenda tion of influential Senators, but are not apportioned around among the .states, and the man with the most pull gets the best position. In the Treasury, for instance, is a treasurer who draws $8, 000: the Comptroller of Currency gets $5000. the Commissioner of Internal Revenue $6000, as does the Director of the Bureau of Printing and Engraving. The Supervising Architect, who has charge of the erection of all public buildings, draws $5000.' Many Places Pay Well. This Is about the scale of salaries that prevails in all the departments for chiefs of the various bureaus, none of whom are trader the civil service. In the Department of Justice there are openings for lawyers at salaries rang ing from $2000 to $7000, according to the responsibility of the office. The assistant to the Attorney-General gets $7000: minor assistants get $5000, and are placed In charge of various lines of work being done by the department, while some forty odd attorneys, not under civil service, get from $2000 to $4000 each. In the Postofflce Department are four assistants to the Postmaster-General, each at $5000, and under them the usual corps of bureau chiefs. The West is particularly Interested In the Interior Department and while all preliminary reports Indicate that a Southern man is likely to succeed Secretary Fisher, the two assistant sec. retaries may be taken from the West. Their salaries are $4500. Then there is to be a new Commissioner of the Land Office at $5000, a Commissioner of Indian Affairs at $5000 and Commis sioner of Patents at the same salary. .The biggest positions to be filled In the Interior Department, however, are those of Director of the Reclamation Service, at a salary of $7500, and Con sulting engineer of the Reclamation Service, at the same salary, and chief engineer of the same brreau, at $6500, while the law officer of the Reclama tion Service draws $4500. The Director of the Geological Survey also has a good job, paying him $6000, and some fortunate Democrat will land that plum. the widely heralded power of attack was sadly minus. Nlles Falls to Shine. The muddy field unquestionably worked a hardship on the lightning fast backfield, but Coach Dolan must be given credit for evolving some wonderful defensive formations. Cap tain Nlles. all-star plunging fullback, did not shine as expected. The slip pery footing seemed to affect him worse than his teammates. - Punting exchanges and an attempted place kick by Blackwell featured the first quarter, which ended with no score. After another unsuccessful at tempt from the 33-yard line at the start of the second quarter Nllea ran the ball back 20 yards and then after adding 22 more on a series 'of end runs and bucks, punting again was re--sorted to by both quarterbacks. It was at this stage that Whitman fumbled out of bounds on her own three-yard line. Dewey's touchdown folowed Im mediately, while 2500 wild-eyed rooters in the grandstand shrieked themselves hoarse. Oregonlana Are Aggressors. That fumble really turned the for tunes of war. Thereafter, the "Aggies" always held the reins, and as in base ball the aggressive, confident team generally gets the advantage of any mlsculng. Whitman fought just as hard, but they were the underdogs and Nlles called for plays that he would never have considered, with honors even. In the third quarter one of these, a duplication of Dewey's mistake In the Aggie-Washington game, gave, the "Aggies" their Becond touchdown. On Whitman's 15-yard line Halfback Shaw, one of the "Aggie" stars. Intercepted Nlles' forward pass and charged over the coveted goal line. Blackwell's kick went wide and the third quarter closed 13 to 0. KUes Kicks Field Goal. Both scored in the fourth quarter. Almost before the whistle echoes had died away Larson pulled another of Niles' disastrous passes out of the air and sped 30 yards for a touchdown. Blackwell kicked goal. A 15-yard pen alty for holding a little later on gave Whitman the ball on the Aggies' 20- yard line and after trying In vain to penetrate the Oregon defense Niles dropped back and booted the leather squarely between the posts for three points. The visitors excelled the locals In the use of the forward pass. At the start of the third quarter they re turned the kickoff to the 40-yard line and then rushed the ball 40 yards down the field. Two beautiful passes Iviles to Neill and Nlles to Blomquist netted 30 yards, and a third to Botts tacked on another six. Kinder fumbled to Evenden on the 20-yard line and tore off seven yards on. the next play. Dewey Rounds Right End. Quarterback Dewey then brought the cheer section to Its feet by a beauti ful 20-yard run around right end. This really resulted in the second touch down, for, after a punt, Niles essayed his first fatal pass. Dewey surely came back strong for any slip-ups in the Washington game. Evenden, May, Kellogg, Shaw and Robertson shone at all stages of the muddy matinee. Christman at center plainly had the edge over McCoy, while Blackwell at half played a stable, though not spectacular, game. The en tire line clearly had the edge on Whit man, Moore, Sitton and Hofer all keep ing heads above water. Captain Sitton sprinted 50 yards for i touendown on one occasion late in he game, but was called back as the ball was declared dead before being fumbled. Habn Blamea Mud. For Whitman the ends, Slover and Botts, proved pillars on defense. Nlles, Neill, Blomquist and Kinder also showed flashes of tornado tendencies. The mud beat us," was coach Hahn's only comment. "I believe we can beat the 'Aggies . easily on a dry field. My team, however, did not come up to ex pectations." I think we outclassed them through out," said Coach Dolan, of the "Aggies. 'Of course we got a couple of luck touchdowns, but that's how Washing ton whipped us a week ago." The punting was only fair on both sides. The lineup: . O. A. C. Foikion. Whitman.

Dewey shoved the ball over by a two Inch margin. Archie Hahn's Walla Wallans fought desperately from 'start to finish, but Efforts to Bring Eugene and Cor- rallis Together Made.' OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL LEGE, Corvallis, Nov. 16. (Special.) matter of many vicissitudes, nnaiiy given up for dead a week ago, refuses slumber beneath the sod. Albany snort-lovers came over in force for to day's game with Whitman College, and eld several conferences with Lugene and Corvallis officials, and it now ap pears as though a chance, and a good one, still , exists lor a state football championship game at Albany, Novem ber 23. ' " ' The Albany men agree to put the field in tip-top shape. If the schools will get. together and consent to a renewal of gridiron relations severed In 1910. , The sentiment of the entire state Is n favor of harmony, and should either school take the initiative and submit proposal of peace calling for a game Saturday, the proposal would likely be accepted. Both realize the advantages, and neither can well afford to turn down a compromise of this sort. A game at-Albany would bring the rival nstitutions together, would bridge the resent chasm, and would give both managements five weeks in which to collaborate on some scheme for the future. ' The Northwestern conference sched ules will be drafted during the Christ mas holidays, and unless the teams can reach some understanding before that time they will face the same full sched ule barrier that was in the way this year, should a compromise be offered later in the Winter or again next Fall. The Albany boosters are highly en thused over the prospects. "I am absolutely positive that 7000 persons, at least, would turn out next Saturday," said one of the visitors. "Albany is between the two schools. and with railroads radiating to all points of the Valley, thousands would pour into the city for that game." President of Eouthem Eqnal Suf frage Association, and Wife of Former 3Iayor, Name of One. MEDFORD, Or., Nov. 16. (Special.) Medford has an embarrasment of riches when a candidate for the position of Mayor is concerned. At the present time 12 candidates are out" for the po sition, Including Joe Brown. Dr. E. B. Pickel, P. S. Steenstrup, Councilman Mitchell, Acting Mayor J. F. Watt, John Orth, Colonel H. H. Sargent, L. L. Ja cobs. J. A. Perry, O. C. Boggs, C. E Gates and Mrs. J. F. Reddy. Mrs. Reddy. president of the South ern Oregon Equal Suffrage Association and wife of ex-Mayor Reddy, has been advanced by her women friends, but de Clares that she will not make the run fer the position at this time. The other candidates all have enthusiastic sup porters, and a red hot campaign is promised before election day, Janu ary 14. Mr. Sargent, although a newcomes, has a strong following among the Bull Muosers, his champion being the chair man of the Roosevelt Progressive coun ty committee. Sargent has been In the Regular Army, for 32 years, Is the author of several books and military treaties, and says he would make a red hot campaign. The supporters of P. S. Steenstrup are In favor of a commission form of gov ernment, and if he should be .elected every effort would be made to secure a commission of three men to conduct the affairs of the city. Never before in the history of . Med ford has the Mayoralty position at tracted so many aspirants, the refusal of Mayor Canyon to run again having left the office open to a large field. The fair sex vote promises to be strong factor in the race, and the can didates are already maneuvering to se cure favor of the recently enfranchised women of the city. Births.

The fact that the fruitgrowers' con ference at its final session today failed to indorse the plan for a general con ference of the growers here December 16 to effect an organization of growers In the Northwestern states to provide a common channel for marketing, was regarded by several growers as Indi cating that the proposed organization would meet opposition.
