M. Jonnlngs as a possibility but bb
ho is manager of the Oregon Power
'Company, a public service corpora
tion, ho would probably bo barrea.
Aside from this, ho would be a strong
man and sometime ago when tho city
manager plan was being discussed
'for Marshfiold. he was spoken of as
mio man for tho place. Under this
'nlan. it would havo beon possible for
tho city to hire blm and pay mm a
better salary than tho Oregon Pow
er Company does.
Kkblud Says Nay
W. N. Ekblad despite the approv
al of his suggested candidacy says
that he cannot consider tho idea. He
says that Ills private business takes
up all hla time.
