Word conies from the big woods
that our former citizen, C. II. Gard
ner is most happy and contented,
l having just finished a large storm

There is now considerable guess
ing b.:ing done by state politicians
as to who will be the next candi-
for Governor of Oregon.
While the Secretary of State will
fill out Governor Chamberlain's un
expired term, in the event of the
Govenor lieing elected to the United
States Senate, still the next general
election is not so far distant and

Among the prominent Republicans
t- ,
who have thus far been mentioned
fof th(J office are the name8 q g L
Kline of Corvallis, President of the
Oregon Retail Grocers' Association;
Dr. James Withycombe, of OAC,
Corvallis; ex-State Senator C. W.
Hodson, president of the Portland
Commercial Club; J. II. Ackerman
State Superintendent of Public In
struction; J. W. Bailey, State Food
and Dairy Commissioner; Dr. An
drew C. Smith, former State Sena
tor; Thomas Ryan, of Oregon City,
and District Attorney George J.
Cameron . The Democrats thus far
have given preference to State Rail
way Commissioner Oswold West;
Mayor Harry Lane of Portland, and
ex-District Attorney John Manning.
The mention of the name of S. L.
Kline for the highest office in the
state is a compliment both to that
gentlemen and his home city. Mr.
Kline has a wide acquaintance
throughout the state and his posi
tion as president of the Oregon Re
tail Grocers' and Merchants' Asso
ciation has brought him into per
sonal contact with the leading busi
ness men of the commonwealth.
Should he receive the nomination
and be elected, there is no question
dui inai no wouia give uregon a
conservative and business-like ad
ministration, while his loyalty to
the Republican party is unquestion
able. Corvallis Gazette.

THE GOOD
ROAD PROJECT
Alsea Citizens Waking up on
the Road Question.
If the residents of each road disr
trict, fully understood the import
ance of the otlice of road supervisor,
much more care would be exercised
in. the selection of a man for thin
place. In our opinion, the most
necessary qualification, should lx
his ability to manage men. Second
to this, his ability to properly han
dle the road work. For illuolia
tion in our road district, the last
six years have marked a period of
success. Under Supervisor Oglesby
the people have been awakened to
the facts of what they can do in
this line and conditions are now in
a fair way for permanent - improve
ment. Men who several years ago
would ahnost refuse to pay their
poll tax are now present tit this
road meetings and are earnest adr
vocates of the special tax. Mr. Og
lesby has worked faithfully for the,
special tax, and now that the peo
ple are really awakened and see thq.
good results of the tax, they no
doubt will continue to vote for it for
some time yet. It being understood
that Mr. Oglesby on account of
physical inability, would not servo
another year, Mr. Tom Barclay one
0f the best road workers in the dis-
trict was elected supervisor. Under
the present conditions we anticipate
a successful term for Mr. Barclay
; and hope to see the good work con
1 tinue.
So voters take care in the selection
of vonr man for road sunervisor.
