Parker, retired, upon appointment by a Repub lican County Court, appears to have the edge. With the exception, perhaps, of the bill closing the Willamette river south of Oswego to commercial fishing and the emergency tax levy measure, indi cations are that all of the initiative and referendum measures will be rejected. DOUGLAS COUJfTY IS AROUSED President's Partisan Appeal Injects Life Into Politics. ROSEEURG, Or., Nov. 2. (Special.) Up to the last 10 days interest in pol itics in Douglas County was slack and party leaders made little effort to arouse the voters. The war situation largely absorbed public attention. Sev eral of the Republican leaders met and planned for action, but before their plans were developed Mr. Wilson's now famous appeal for a Democratic Con gress stirred the county from center to circumference. Hundreds of Republicans who had previously taken no action, and appar ently would not have taken the trouble to vote, now are working like beavers to get voters to the polls on election day. Within the week the whole politi cal atmosphere has changed and there is every indication of a good vote No vember 5. The normal school matter is -attracting some interest here, but the prospect for its success is dubious. The Jackson delinquent tax bill is apparently not gettingr much consideration. The meas ure referred by the State Tax Commis sion appears to be a necessity and prob ably will be indorsed. Locally the only contest will be for the Clerk's office, Edward Lenox, Dem ocratic incumbent, having a strong op ponent in Barton Helliwell, Republican. West, for Senator, has but a small following in the county, and McXary is conceded an easy victory. The elec torate generally is satisfied with Gov ernor Withycombe's administration, and there is no apparent disposition to make a change In the Governorship. WASHINGTON HAS NO THRILLS Lack of Interest Marks Campaign in That County. HILLSBORO. Or.. Nov. 2. (Special.) The political campaign in Washington County has been a campaign in name only, for there has been an almost com plete lack of interest. No political meetings have been held and neither state nor county candidates have made canvasses. . What few predictions of the result next Tuesday are made arc that the large normal Republican majority in the county canr be counted upon and that the President's announce ment that politics is not adjourned will bring out a larger vote than would otherwise have been cast. With three to elect, there are but three legislative candidates on the .ticket, all Republicans. They are W. G. Hare and li. W. Haines, both of whom have served before, and L. M. Graham The only competition on the county ticket is for County Judge and Sheriff. In the Tornier. J W. Goodin, Republican, is opposed by R. O. Stevenson. Demo crat. Both have held the office pre viously, and indications are that Goodin will be an easy winner. George Alexander, present incumbent. re the Republican candidate for Sheriff, and Is opposed by J. E. Reeves, who re tired from the office two years age The only uncertainty as to the result of the entire ticket is believed to center in this office, but it is believed the evi dent intention to vote it straight will Eivo Alexander the office. POLK COUNTY SHOWS INTEREST Closing Days of Campaign Bring Issnes Before Voters. DALLAS, Or.. Nov. 2. (Special.) Politics in this county, which have been rather dormant so far this campaign, have begun to liven up and a lively in terest is now being taken, especially in the candidates for the offices of Sena tor. Governor and the county offices of County Judge, Clerk and Sheriff. Gov ernor Withycombe, who has a large number of personal friends In the county. Is almost assured of a big m . jority. Senator McNary, who is also Well-known here, has the backing of the entire legal talent of the county and should carry the county, according to reports from various sections, by a big vote. The biggest contest for county offices centers on the offices of County Judge. Clerk and Sheriff, with about an equal showing for the candi dates for both parties for the offices. Polk politicians who have been in the game for years say that there is going to be a larger number of "straight" Republican ticket voted this year than , for many previous elections, owing to the recent appeal sent out from the President's office asking for i. Demo cratic Congress. YAMHILL PREDICTS BIG VOTE Wilsm Partisanship Tonic Spurs Re publican Voters to Action. McMINNVILLE. Or.. Nov. 2. (Spe- ciul.) Interest in the coming election lms revived since politics was "re mimed" at Washington. Republican landers here predict an increased num ber of Republican votes at the polls next Tuesday cast by voters who might have remained at home but for the recent stirring-up tonic of par tisanship. . United States Senator McNary will receive hearty indorsement in Yamhill . County. Governor Withycombe also will poll a large vote. The legislative ticket is headed by Fenator W. T. Vinton for re-election, who is opposed by Earl A. Nott, Inde pendent candidate. The two Republi can candidates for Representative are J. M. Crawford and W. B. Dennis, op posed by C. R. Jlatthis and by Y. Roe, Democrats. PARTISAN APPEAL RANKLES Umatilla County Voters Stirred by Wilson's Message. PENDLETON, Or., Nov. 3. (Special.)

B For Our Boys and Girls in the Service EGINNING Monday, November 11, and continuing until Monday, November 18, inclu sive, a campaign will be waged in Portland and Oregon and the entire Nation for funds with which the war welfare work of these seven organizations may go on until our mil lions of boys and thousands of girls now serving the colors are safely home again. YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION Slli rt$&& rt i rtSt KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION JEWISH WELFARE BOARD SALVATION ARMY WAR CAMP COMMUNITY SERVICE lit Wiiii A United Campaign is planned upon the recommendation of President Wilson and the War Department to reduce ex penses and multiply results. National, State and City Quotas The sum to be raised by contribution in the United States is $170,000,000; in Oregon, $700,000; in Portland, $300,000. Seven in Name One in 'Aim Not one of these organizations could be dispensed with in creating and maintaining the morale of our. millions. Broad gauged all not one of these would refuse succor or good cheer to your son, your husband, your father, your sweetheart or to those loved ones -of your neighbors. Broad gauged all not one ofus can refuse to lay aside policies, prejudices, principles or preferences to get behind those boys through these necessary organizations. The End of the War does not mean a cessation of our responsibilities to those brave fighters and workers who have made this so soon possible. Gratitude, as well as duty, now weigh in the balance. This money will be needed to even a greater extent upon the sudden release of military discipline and the involuntary "letting down" when an armistice is made and peace finally declared than under the tension of striving for the survival of the fittest. Policing the borders, reconstruction work and transporting home will be long and tedious tasks trying the mental, physical and moral fiber of every mother's son. These things must not be at the possible future expense of our certain future leading citizens. UiMiB 3 iliBlB Our Part and Your Part The Portland organization must depend to a greater extent than in any previous campaign upon the generous, volun tary spirit of the people. The influenza epidemic will preclude the possibility of rousing meetings and the inspiration of bands playing. It will be a quiet campaign, but it MUST BE loyally responded to. Through the medium of the news and advertising columns of the papers information and details of the campaign will be carried over the city. Circu lars giving particulars will be distributed to every home and person. Read them and be prepared in order that when one of our more than 4000 volunteer and unpaid workers calls upon you your knowledge of the need will be ample, and your contribution to this cause SUFFICIENT. sr a THIS SPACE PATRIOTICALLY CONTRIBUTED BY THE FOLLOWING FOUNDRIES AND MACHINE SHOPS.

In the primary election Umatilla County's vote was extremely light. There is every indi cation that, at the election Tuesday, the vote will be considerably larg-er. Umatilla County is nomally Repub lican by an active majority of about 000 and there is little doubt that the majorities here for the Republican can didate will reach close to that figure. Governor Withycombe will have a ma jority in this county, it Is conceded. The estimates of his vote run from 500 to 1000 over that of Pierce. While the Democratic machine here is working hard for the West vote, there is little doubt that McXary -will carry the county by about the same amount. Congressman Sinnott is unopposed.' Thee are two candidates for County Commissioner, one from each end of the county. G. L. Dunning, Republican, of Stanfield, seems to have a consid erable lead over his Democratic oppo nent, L. J. Mclntyre, of Freewater. For Sheriff, T. D. Taylor. Democrat, Is expected to be returned aeain to office, though his Republican opponent, George Tonkin, district game warden, and his friends have been making a quiet and thorough campaign, the ef fect of which can only be known at the polls. Lsu Hodgen, elected to the Legisla ture last year as an Independent, has something of an edge on his opponents this year by reason of bis year of service, despite the fact that he is run ning as a Democrat this year In a Re publican County. CLATSOP CAMPAIGN" IS QCIET Chief Interest Centered Tpon State Contests. ASTORIA. Or.. Xov. 2. (Special.) The political campaign in Clatsop County has been an exceptionally quiet one, due in cart to the epidemic precau tions which have prevented the holding of any public meetings. Bo far as the Congressional and state offices are concerned, the greatest amount of interest centers about the contest for United States Senator. Gov ernor and Supreme Court Justice. While the county Is looked upon as safely Re publican, and McXary will probably! carry the county. West is a former Astorian, has many friends here and is certain to poll a big vote. Wlthyoombe appears to be the favorite for the Gov ernorship, while J. I". Campbell in ex pected to run ahead in the contest for Supreme Court Justice. Of the local offices, the only ones In which there are any spirited contests are for State Senator, Sheriff and Cor oner. One measure of more than passing Importance to be voted upen next Tues day Is one to authorize the issuing of 1800.000 in water department bonds. The object of this Is to provide funds for Increasing the water supply, build ing an additional reservoir and extend ing the mains to the new industrial and residence sections. This measure ap parently has no opposition of note. POLLING PLACES LISTED (Continued Prom Pip !. rra 27T 278 278 279 2S0 una 21 i&2 2 24 263 26 2s6 27 2a 20 274 Cburcti. nonheist. comer Sixil.
