THURSDAY July 13, 1905 f ULTO Qtf THE 4K)VERN0RSH1P To a representative of the Baker City Democrat, Hon. . TV. Ful ton of. Astoria, United States senator for Oregon, who was there to deliver the oration at the Fourth of July celebration in Baker City, when questioned in regard to the Oregon gub ernatorial situation, said: ""Nothing is being done now on the question nor, so far as I know, have any canidates been put forward by prominent men .of the different localities or in any localities, except that prominent men are mentioned for the office. How far the mention of canidatesxis author ized or sanctioned by the cani daten themselves I do not know. For instance, your own fellow townsman, the Hon. C. A. Johns, is frequently mentioned as suit able timber for the Republican candidate, and he certainly would be an admirable canidate and should be nominated I have no donbt whatever that he would be elected by a large majority, but I do not know whether Mr. Johns is or would become a candidate. "Other prominent men are. mentioned in other localities, but I think no systematic- work 1 1 -1 Jias oeen done oy any man or the friends of any man. In truth, the situation is peculiar and we are treading on strange ground in view of the fact that the direct primary law will be tested for the first time next year. I do not see very well how any program can be ar ranged, for it is a matter that the people will have to settle, and they would not be disposed probably to look with favor on any prearranged program, no matter how carefully it may have been prepared.

He began, his public life with Lincoln. But Secretary Hay didn't stop for rest soon enough to save lis lre. He returned to his home, and while apparently on the road to recovery, he died suddenly, thus passing to his tory one of the most brilliant and diplomatic statesmen this nation has produced. Western Pacific Probabje. Gould's intentions in Oregon have not been changed by the trip of the Harriman agents into Central Oregon by way of Shaniko, Bend and Prineville. Doubt is expressed in some quarters that Harriman will, furnish funds to build the Col umbia Southern extension to Beud and Prineville, but, judg ing from the practical audi thorough manner in which the Gould agents in Oregon are con-. turning their work, it is con sidered sure the Western Pacific will tap the territory ere long, and that move will be the cud gel which wijl .force Harrinwn or his successors to furnish. Central Oregon with railroad facilities.. The- continued presence of Gould representatives in the Webfoot eld a,fter it became known Harriman would tele graph his Portland ofiicers to minuately investigate the ad vantages aDd disadvantages to be encountered in the extension of the Columbia Southern gives color to the surmise that he its in this district to stay. The fact Gould has gone ahead with the establishment of his base of supplies for construction work at Salt Lake and that he will push on tc San Francisco with dispatch, is taken as indicating the branch line from a point near- Eureka, Nev., to Portland will follow, for it is figured out the agreement of the stockhold ers and board of directors at San Francisco last week to in- Furniture, undertaking supplies and building material at Louck's & Co's. A companx has been organized with, A capital stock q $150,000 ("pr the purpose of building a railroad, 16 miles, from Vale to connect with the Oregon Short Line at Ontario. It is said, that 550,000 of the stock has already been subscribed, $25, 000 by local capital and $25,000 by out side capitalists. It h,as not been decided yet whether thq new road will be n steam or an electric Ijne. Construction work will begin as soon as the right of way can be scented. - - - m - James C. Stoncr was yi town Wednes day on business and called at The Pio neer o'llicc. Mr. Stoner says a portion of his crop is good this year and it is his observation that grain sown in December or January will make a surer and belter crop than sown grain later in the Spring. Winter sowing giv,es the grnin an oppor tunity to form a long, heaih.y root and is then more able to appropriate the mpis- ture that falls in the soring months, insur ing a long stem and well filled heads, while grain planted in the Spring devel opes only a short root, many times has to contend with a diy season and what rain does fall soon sinks below the depth of the roots, they deriving only a slight ben efit, with the result ihw the grain makes a short stem and the heads arc poorly filled. Prineville Reviewr The Re view this week is compelled to print three days ahead of time, owing to a pressing invitation firom Mr. Francis J. Heuey for the editor to attend the trial of Hon. J. N. Williamson, "which began at Portland on Monday. Mr. H,ene' refnsed to take no for an answer; and as he like-i wise insisted upon the whole ojjfcce force being present at the trial, and on? news gathering was limited to three daysx we are also compelled to come out on a half-sheet.

Yes, and they are no sooner purchased than it U found they arc any old goods. It should be remembered by our people that these transients cannot sell goods as cheaply rW can our home merchants.

It was thought for a time that the Portland, fnjr would be n serious hindrance to a si)ccessfil exhibit in the city this year, but the conclusion has been reached that the late date at which the local fair wil) beheld w'di assure a big at tendance. Practically all of those who will attend the exposition in Portland will have returned ljome by that time.

SECRETARY HAY WORN OUT. Secretary of State Hay sailed for Europe a number of weeks ago worn out from overwork. He was so weak and tired that as he stood on the dock in New York he was forced to call for a chair. The people realized when they heard this that the great Secretary of State had been killing himself for his country, and after almost half a century of public life, during which he has been with the greatest national move ments, that he was compelh d to give up. During the last few months particularly his strength has been much overtaxed, and he haB submitted to a great deal of annoyance besides. The treaties he has drawn have been tampered with by Congress until they no longer were capable of bringii g about the effects the Secretary hoped for, and in spite of ill health, he has is assured, for the $50,000,000 is estimated to have been sufficient to build to the Golden Gate. Gould will bo encouraged to enter the territory, and already prominent influences in the slate are at work in that direc tion. With his $50,000,000 of bonds already sold in England and right of way offered him for a small sum the rising rail road magnate may yet hold the supreme hand in OiRgon so far as transcontinental business is concerned.
