WASHINGTON BUSY
Many State Officials Willing to
Succeed Themselves, but
Opposition Appears.
WOMAN'S ROAD NOT CLEAR
Aspirants 'Mentioned' for Mrs. Pres
ton's IMaoe Are Men Running
Mate for Governor Lister Jic-
ing Sou glit by Democrats.
OLYMPIA, Wash., Nov. 13. (Special.)
With a considerable field of candi
dates already out for Governor, some
progress is being made toward filling
out the remainder of the state tickets
for the 1916 state campaign. Repub
lican officials who will be candidates
for re-election are: Louis F. Haxt
Lieutenant-Governor; I. M. Howell,
Secretary of State; C. W. Clausen,
State Auditor: Josephine Preston. Su
perintendent of Public Instruction;
Clark V. SavidKe, Commissioner of
Public Lands, and II. O. Kishback. In
surance Commissioner.
Edward Meath, State Treasurer, is
ineligible for re-election, but W. W.
Sherman, Deputy Treasurer, already
is an active candidate for the position.
W. V. Tanner, Attorney-General, is un
decided whether to seek re-election,
but if he does not, Scott Z. Henderson,
of his staff of assistants, will seek the
office.
Lieutenant-Governor Hart already
has one announced opponent in R. li.
Condon, former State Senator from
Kitsap County, who was one of the
leaders in the revolt that took all con
trol of the Senate away from Lieutenant-Governor
Coons. There also
has been a feeling-out suggestion in
behalf of C. E. Claypool, until recently
Superior Court Judge, by appointment,
in Thurston and Mason counties, but
now practicing law in Seattle.
Mrs. Prestos Opposed.
There is r.n element among the teach
ers of the state evidently determined to
make the attempt to displace Mrs. Pres
ton, Washington's only woman state
official. M. E. Durham, King County
School Superintendent, is considered
already virtually a candidate for the
Republican nomination against Mrs.
Preston, and William U. Neeley, Lin
coln County Superintendent, also has
been "mentioned." Mrs. Preston was
Involved in one somewhat heated con
troversy during the recent legislative
session. Later a portion of her office
force "walked out."
Mrs. Preston probably will go into the
next campaign with a strong organi
zation of teachers and clubwomen in
all parts of the state behind her.
It is perhaps significant that men in
stead of other women are being brought
forward as opponents against Mrs.
Preston. The 1912 election, the first
in which women participated, saw Mrs.
Preston elected to office, and two
women Bent to the Legislature. Since
that time, apparently -women have not
been so "psychological" as candidates.
All of the several women who were
candidates for the Legislature last year
were defeated. '
Some Seats Thought Assured.
Auditor Clausen and Land Commis
sioner Savidge at present appear rea
sonably sure of renomination and re
election, though Perry Niles, of Ever
ett, may be a Republican candidate for
Land Commissioner. There is consid
erable talk of opposition to Secretary
of State Howell, accompanied by re
port of a sharp break between Howell
and his former political mentor, James
H. Davis, of Tacoma.
The sharp fight with the John H.
Schively faction of past years may lead
to some opposition to Insurance Com
missioner Fishback. though it is un
likely that Mr. Shively will be a can
didate. If Attorney-General Tanner himself
Is not a candidate for re-election, it is
likely that Representative Guy Kelly,
of Tacoma, may seek this office.
Democratic interest in connection
with the state ticket at present is cen
tered upon finding a suitable running
mate for Governor Lister, who beyond
doubt will announce ihs candidacy for
re-election. This candidate must be
from Eastern Washington, where ap
, proximately half of the Democratic
vote of the state lies, and should be a
good campaigner, as the Governor will
depend upon a vigorous campaign and
his personal record, rather than upon
the Democratic vote. In his fight for
return to office.
IRRIGATION JS TO CEASE
Ditelies Xenr AVapato to Be Emptied
and Supply Halted TTntil Spring;.
WAPATO. Wish., Nov. IS. (Special.)
Writer Superintendent F. P. Lee has
notified all users of irrigation water
that the ditches will be emptied Sun
day and all Irrigation will cease until
next Spring. Work of cleaning the
ditches and canals will be commenced
immediately and continued throughout
the Winter when weather will permit.
The irrigation department has be
Kun work on the construction of about
a mile and a quarter of new canal,
which will take the place of several
ditches heretofore used and which are
run diagonally across cultivated land.
The new ditch will be on section lines
and will be a part of the Wapato
project. The hope is entertained, by
the irrigation officials, as well as
ranchers, that Congress will at its next
session appropriate sufficient money to
begin construction work upon the new
project.

HEREVlfSTGN PLANS ENTRY
TESTS MADE OP CORN" ACREAGE
FOR "WALLA "WALLA SHOW.
Production of as High as lo Bushels
of Shelled Product to Acre Is
Attained.
HERMISTON, Or.. Nov. 13. (Special.)
In a test for an exhibit at the Walla
Walla corn show four corn fields in
this locality were found producing re
spectively 104, 106, 105.6 and 109 bush
els of shelled corn to the acre: These
fields were measured by three competent
judges, including R. W. Allen, superin
tendent of the state experiment farm
here. All made affidavits to be sub
mitted in the contest at Walla Walla
for the best yield to the acre.
One of these fields was owned by
H. G. Newport, another by W. H.
Skinner and the other two by Winslow
Dyer. The varieties of corn were yel
low and white dent and squaw corn,
the latter yielding the 100 bushels.
Many hills produced 10 to 14 large ears.
One of the fields was on new land on
which no fertilizer had been used. The
other fields were taken from the raw
state four years ago and had produced
from eight to 10 tons of alfalfa.
These are the largest yields of corn
so far produced on the Umatilla Gov
ernment project. Last year the heavi
est crop was 80 bushels and a number
of premiums as to quantity and qual
ity were taken at the Walla Walla
show. This year the Hermteton con
testants expect to carry off the princi
pal prizes.

SOUTH WATCHES EVENTS
In Spite or General Sentiment Over
State That Governor Should Be
Panhandle Candidate, Confer
ence Agrees on No One.
BOISE, Idaho, Nov. 13. (Special.)
The question- aS to whether North Ida
ho party leaders will confer on candi
dates for Federal and state office is
Causing not a little speculation In the
southern section, where there are sev
eral aspirants for office announced and
quietly building their political fences
for a strenuous campaign.
Some of the party papers of the north
are urging the conference, yet the par
ty leaders hesitate to take the step
because of the fear of charges of
"slate making."
The net result is that condemnation
is being heaped on the direct primary
law. It is blamed openly by some of
the leaders and press for bringing
about a topheavy condition in this state
by which practically all of the office
holders come from the more thickly
populated, section the south.
Kerth Divides on Many Candidates.
Not a few of the leaders declare that
the reason Northern Idaho feela so dis
gruntled is because It has persistently
refused to back any set of candidates
for state office, thereby dividing its
vote, or become so entangled over fac
tional differences as to split its
strengtn, allowing the south to carry
off most of the offices.
While admitting some of these faults,
the northern leaders declare that those
who control in the couth pit the north
against itself, then proceed to map out
the tickets to be nominated and elect
ed. This "year and for the coming
campaign they say the south confer
enced at Pocatello without the north
being represented, and there some of
the party, leaders reached an under
standing. The north says this - was
unfair. .
Mr. Censor Draws Resentment.
There has been some little interest,
not to say amusement, over a recent
statement made by A." H. Connor, of
Sandpoint. Representative in the last
Legislature from that . county and
Speaker of the House of Representa
tives. Apparently the north took his
statement no more seriously than did
the south.
In this statement he eliminated him
self as a prospective candidate for Rep
resentative in Congress, declaring he
would give way to Lieutenant-Governor
Taylor, also of Sandpoint, for Gov
ernor. He also took it upon himself
to declara the panhandle would ask for
but two offices. Governor and Secre
tary of State. He said:
"We are going to give you an oppor
tunity to vote for a northern Governor
this year. V.'e expect to present Lieutenant-Governor
Taylor for youn ap
proval. Although his candidacy has
not been formally announced, his north
ern friends have determined upon this
course and from what we can learn
we feel that hla chances are excellent.
You . understand that nothing will be
done to interfere with Secretary of
State Barker's chances for re-election;
we concede that. But beyond these two
offices the north will ask for nothing
else."
Ximpapcr Questions Stand.
Secretary of State Barker is also
from Sandpoint. To Speaker Connor's
declaration as to what the north will
ask for, "the Wallace Miner, one of
the influential papers in the Coeur
d'Alene section, retorts, after saying
it has no particular objections to the
men he named. "But how does Mr. Con
nor know that "beyond these two of
fices the north will ask for nothing
else .' Has feandpoint come to the Re
publican Bhrine in North Idaho, be
fore which all must bow and promise
to obeyY
In view of the fact that Senator E.
E. Elliott is prominently mentioned as
a candidate lor Congress, speaker Con
nor's remarks are looked upon here as
most unusual. By his statement he
eliminated one of his colleagues entire
ly as a northern candidate, or even
prospective timber for Congress.
This the friends of Senator Elliott
resent much, as they are inclined not
to take the speaker's declarations any
more seriously than did the Wallace
paper. They look upon the declaration
as a direct affront to Mr. Elliott.'
Others Dislike Statement.
Neither did his declaration meet with
the approval of a number of other
aspirants in the panhandle for office,
if reports received by party leaders
here rs correct. Included among them
are such men as George Crum. of Lew
is ton; James H. Ailshie, of Coeur
d'Alene, and Charles L. Heitman. of
Katnarum, ail mentioned as guberna
torial timber; B. F. DeJenbach, spoken
of as a prospective candidate for Lieutenant-Governor
or Auditor; C. H.
Potts, of Coeur d'Alene, looked upon
here as excellent timber for Attorney
General, and other men as prominent.
On the heels of the speaker's decla
ration comes what Is considered here
an inspired article appearing in the
Spirit Lake Herald, launching a boom
for a Northern Idaho conference and
for Charles L. Heitman as candidate
for Governor. The article is looked
upon here as more than significant in
view of the fact Lieutenant-Governor
Taylor, whose boom Speaker Connor
has been endeavoring to launch, and
Mr. Heitman are in two entirely dif-

North Sees Opportunity.
The Herald says, in part:
"Never before in the history of the
state has North Idaho had such an op
portunity to win the Governorship for
one of its own citizens, as is now pre
sented. In view of the fact that the
Governorship has gone to the southern
part of the state for Ions; years, the
sentiment is greneral throughout the
state that this part of the state is en
titled to it this year, and that it should
be conceded to us. Nothing can pre
vent it but a division among ourselves,
the one condition which aspirants in
the southern part of the state hope to
occur that they may win.
"However, it would appear that the
lesson which we have learned through
division should suffice. Had it not
been for division in our ranks, one of
the United States Senators from this
state today would be a Northern Idaho
man. Is it possible that our costly ex.
perience is to be without value?" '
Spilt Believed t'omlni.
The Northern Idaho editor then pro
ceeds to launch a boom for Charles L.
Heitman. of Rathdrum ae the candi
date from the north for Governor. "In
our opinion," he says, "Charles 'L. Heit
man. of Rathdrum. former chairman
of the Republican State Central Com
mittee, is under present conditions the
most valuable man in the state."
With the boom for Mr. Heitman
launched by his northern friends and
the boom for Mr. Taylor launched by
Speaker Connor, the Southern Idaho
party leaders begin to see the north
already headed towards a split that
will result in a number of candidates
bejng brought forth. It Is believed
here that the recent statement made by
Lieutenant-Governor Taylor was for the
purpose of paving the way for retiring
as a possible gubernatorial candidate.
It was reported here this week by one
of the leaders close to the situation
that the Lieutenant-Governor will not
enter the race.

Northern Pacific Railway to Make Sur-V-T
of Grays Harbor Territory

HOQUIAM, Wash.. Nov. 13. (Spe
cial.) Greater activity toward the de
velopment of the logged-off lands of
Grays Harbor County during the com
ing year. than at any time in the past
is indicated by plans now on foot, which
are to be carried out during the Win
ter and taken up in the Spring. De
velopment in this county during the
past year has been particularly in
dairying, and a great deal of interest
is being taken in this line at present.
Announcement has just been made
here that in February an important
delegation is to come here and spend
a week in the county, the greater part
of the time in the country district?
looking over the territory and meeting
settlers. In the party will be T. E.

with the party.
One of the features of the visit prob
ably will be noon meetings at central
points in the various important valleys
of the county to meet and interview
the ranchers and dairymen, and in the
evenings meetings will be held in the
cities and towns to meet the business
men. The conditions will be carefully
studied, both for the benefit of the
ranchers and with the idea of promot
ing settlement of the available lands
and of improving market conditions.
Another project for development of
the dairying business is a proposal to
organise a numoer or amail creameries
and cheese factories in various sections
of the county, each located centrally
with reference to some certain devel

One of the backers of the project is
W. C. Mumaw. president of the Aber

given a great deal of time and' study
to the possibilities of developing the
dairying industry in this district.
