Secretary of State Olcott and Gus C. Moser, President of the State Senate, as the contestants. "I feel that the pffice of Governor is one to which any loyal citizen, of the state should aspire," said Dr. Anderson at the Imperial Hotel yesterday, in an nouncing his candidacy. "I consider the office primarily an executive posi tion and if elected shall use my great est efforts to see that all laws are strictly and firmly enforced, of course, reserving the right to veto and ,of sug gesting necessary legislation. Later, I shall issue a formal announcement of my candidacy together with a state ment of the principles -upon, which I shall ask the Republican voters of the atate for their support." Vlsrorous Campaign Proposed. BDr. Anderson said he would close his ffice at The Dalles the first of the year and personally conduct his cam paign, which, he Bays, will be prose cuted vigorously in every corner of the at ate. Dr. Anderson is perhaps best known as the father of Oregon's "bone-dry" law, which was enacted at the 1917 ses sion of the Legislature. He is a native of Illin,ois. 47 years old, and has re sided in Oregon for 16 years, all of that time at The Dalles. He served three terms as Mayor of his home city and was three times elected State Repre sentative from Hood River and Wasco counties, serving as a member of the 1913, 1915 and 1917 sessions of the Leg islature. Having assisted In drafting the state's first prohibition law, Dr. Ander son at the 1915 session of the Legisla ture introduced the measure in the House. At the 1917 session, as chair man of the House committee on alco holic affairs, he introduced in. the lower branch the "bone-dry" . law which is now in operation. Legislative Activity Noted. Dr. Anderson was also a member of the committee on medicine, pharmacy and! dentistry at the last legislative session and introduced a number of bills requested by social hygiene work ers. Aside from these activitie-s. Dr. Anderson also gave his support to va rious measures of progressive legisla tion that were presented and enacted into law by the three sessions of the Legislature of which he was a mem ber. Dr. Anderson. Is the first of the Gu bernatorial possibilities among the Re. publicans definitely to announce his candidacy. It is generally known, that Governor Wlthycombe will seek re election and that in. due time Secretary of State Olcott and Senator Moser will acquaint the voters with the fact that they are also candidates for the party nomination of Governor. Jn addition to this, quartet of candi dates, there is talk that George J. Cam eron, of Multnomah County, and Louis J. Simpson, of the Coos Bay district. may yet be persuaded through, the In sistence of friends to try for the same oince. State Senator S. B. Huston would not say yesterday that he would be a can didate for United States Senatorship, Neither would he say that he would not be a candidate. But it is known that he is seriously considering the matter. Some of his friends are thinking of circulating petitions asking Mr. Huston to enter the contest in the Republican primaries. "For several days I have been receiving a great many letters from friends all over the state urging me to become a candidate for the Sen atorship," said Mr. Huston yesterday. Several of these letters were written by prominent Republicans, and, I might add, a number have been received from sources entirely unexpected by me.' ... "If I could foresee the result of the primary choice of the Republicans for Governor, I might be a candidate for the Democratic nomination for that office," said Walter M. Pierce, State Senator from Union and Wallowa coun ties, who was at the Imperial yester day, but owing to the great uncer tainty of foretelling that result Senator Pierce intimated that he probably would not start. It is not likely, either, that the Senator will seek his party's nomination for either United States Senator or Representative in Congress ' from the Second District, as has been reported. Senator Pierce is a holdover member of the Senate, and frankly said yesterday he would dislike very much for any other political contingency to arise which would make it necessary for him to terminate his membership In that body. . . . Ferdinand E. Reed and Elmer L. Amidon are not waiting for Ben Olcott to announce that he will be a canai data for Governor. They have gone to work already in Olcott's behalf. Each is industriously circulating among the boys and telling them that Olcott is the man to support ,for Governor. But Reed and Amidon never went much on formality. They believe in getting in early and staying up late, if necessary. ... Constable Mark W. Peterson dis claims any intention of being a candi. date for Sheriff, as has been reported. Mr. Peterson feels that he has made good Constable, and on that record will ask for a second term. The Jackson Club will hold its first meeting of the Winter months in room A, of the Central Library, at 8 o clock tomorrow night. It will be addressed by William, H.

Names of Voters Affected by Change Will Be Transferred to New Precincts to Avoid Confu sion at Elections. Establishment of SS new precincts in Multnomah County has just been com pleted by County Clerk Beverldge, and the boundaries of the new precincts have been approved by the County Com missioners. The precincts are for the most part located on the East Side, al though the rapid growth of five West Side precincts necessitated additions. Under the state law the County Clerk, with the approval of the Commission ers, is required to change the precincts whenever the voting population of precinct exceeds 300 persons. Registra tion Deputy Herman Schneider has been at work on the new boundaries for sev eral weeks, and has just completed his work. New Precinct Established. The addition of the 38 new precincts, however, will not cause any confusion at the approaching elections, bo far as the voters are concerned. The Clerk's force will transfer the names of voters from one precinct to another to con form with the new boundaries, and the voter will not be compelled to re register. Every voter who has thus been changed to a new precinct will be notified as soon as the work of trans fering names has been completed. In most cases it was necessary to form new precincts out of parts of as many as four or five existing precincts. The boundaries were changed and new precincts added in accordance with the registration totals for the county, which have been kept up to date for that purpose. According to the figures compiled by Mr. Schneider, there were 89,908 reg istered voters in Multnomah County on December 4. Of this number, 50,154 were men and 39,754 were women. New Boards Neeessary. The addition of the new precincts will make a total of 413 voting pre cincts In Multnomah County. Neces sarily, 38 additional boards of election will have to be formed by the county officials. Mr. Beverldge said yester day he Is now making up his list of election officials and desires any per sons who wish to serve during the coming year to send him their applica tions in writing at the earliest possible moment. He will make every effort to secure election officials who are thoroughly competent to serve in order that the election work may be carried on with the least possible friction. It was also announced by Mr. Bev erldge that it is imperative that all persons who have changed their resi dence since the last election re-register at once at the registration headquar ters on the first floor of the Court house. Failure to re-register will de prive the voter of his or her franchise right at- the forthcoming elections. Those persons who failed to vote at either the last primary or general elec tion must also re-register if they would vote at the next election. This applies to persons who were notified by mall of their failure to vote and who failed McCall Patterns Main 8360 Please Shop Early HAN AH AN.'

Fifteen thousand dollars has been ap portioned Oregon; $10,000 of it to Port land. Since this is Oregon's quota for the past six months and 1918. there will be no call for a Bpeclal Bible fund by the American Bible Society during 1918. Earle A.

KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT EASILY RECOGNIZED Applicants for Insurance Often Rejected. An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Compa nies, In an Interview of the subject, made the astonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are rejected is because kid ney trouble Is so common to the Amer ican people, and the large majority of those whose applications are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. Judging from reports from druggists who are constantly in direct touch with the public there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming these conditions.
