shows the beets of that section to aver
age lusher in sujrar richness than those

Owing to the nicily adjusted and labor
saving machinery, it will be necessary t
employ only about 2eo men, but, indi
rectly, the fictary will furnish work to
many others, wood choppers, farm help,
etc., and help build up the home market.
7,000 cords of wood has been engaged
for the first season's run. The factory
will use fur carloads of limestone each
24 huurs, which' will come fror.i Hunting -
ton.
The machinwry is ordered from E. H.
Dyer & Co., and the kearier parts are
now on the road. It will require 130
cars to bring the machinery acres.- the
continent. It is all of the very latest
pattern.
David Kccles, mayor of Ogde.i, Utah,
is the chief raonied man of tke enter

factory, which has beej a wonderful stic-

; seven years, and for many years prior
j was in the beel fields and suar factories
of California.
Beside the 450,000, the cost of the
plant, as much more will bs necessarily
I invested in operating the factory. The
J beneficial results of this investment will
be far reaching.
The establishment of this factory can
I be honestly credited directly to the ex
penmen'- -lation connected with the Ore
gou Agricultural College. The station
sent out beet seed:, requesting farmers
in different portions of the stale te ex
periment with them. Many gladly re
sponded, and the later t-'sls earned on
at the station sho.ve I that the LrGrande
aHd a few other beets were very rich in
sllgar. Ai SOOH as tue wideawake actm

and backed no by th. station's data, they

and wishes to run for congress
man in this district on the iusion
ticket. Will R. King, of Bi.ker
county, a former O. A. C. student,
in all probability will be the fus
ion candidate for governor. If
Kincaid eannot get the republican
nomination for secretary of state,
it is understood that he will be
he silver ticket candidate. It is
possible that a Benton county
man will be on the state lusion
ticket.
On the republican side there are
three active and avowed candi
dates for governor, Goir, Lord and
Metcham. The latter will prob
ably show the most strength in

school superintendent and Printer
Leeds is apt to be renominated.
Claude Gatch, of Salem, is not a
(amijdate for tiny position. But
in case neither Geer nor Lord cap
lure the governor plum, many
knowing ones predict that Mr.
Gatch will be named for secretary
oi state, witn lieorge a. Williams
at the head of the ticket. Tongue
lor congress will have practically
no opposition.
Hazard, of Coos county, and
Hamilton, ol Douglas, are work
ing diligently lor the nomination
of district judge on thrj fusion
ticket. Mr. Hamilton was in Cor
vallis last week seeking support,
and Mr. Coke, of Mar.-kfie)d, was
