C, July 23. A nup of the new State of Oklahoma hat just been completed by the draughting division of the General Land Office. It it now being lithographed and will be ready for di tribution about September 1. at least the contract calls for 3000 copies by that time. When it began to be apparent at the Capitol, more than a month ago, that the Statehood bill would pass. Frank Bond, chief of the draughting division of the Land Office, put some of hii 20 clerks to work on what he thought would be the first official map of the new State. The last edition of a map of Oklahoma has been made in 1303. and of Indian Territory in 1S99. Both edition has been exhausted for some time, and there has been repeated calls for an other edition, but Mr. Bond waited for the Statehood bill, and when it was passed, it was prepared to rush a splen did draught 0 fa combination of the two Territories to the printer. The new map will be one of the finest photo-litbograph maps ever turn ed out of the Land Office. The moun tains will be marked in brown, the water lining in blue, the Indian Reservations, of which there are but a few small ones, in yellow, and the game reserves in purple. The district boundaries will be purple, and the State, county, and mili tary reservation boundaries in red. The distance scale will be 12 miles to the inch, and the size of the entire map will be 4x21 feet. There has already been a big demand at the Interior Department for the maps. The work of putting the new State on the big map of the United States, which is published by the General Land Office is more complicated. On this map, which i generally seen in government offices throughout the country, there is a big yellow spot which denotes the Indian Territory. It stands out from the white ground of Oklahoma beside it. Because if the allotment of Indian lands in In dian Territory the yellow spot will dis appear on the new map, the boundary between the two territories will be elimi nated and the new State will be all white with a big Oklahoma spelled across its face. : No Arrangements Concluded for Sub stituting the Potter Stanford Load ing and Rigging at Clatsop Dock Notes From Waterfront i - LEGGETT ARRIVES WITH LOG RAFT.

Owing to the fact that her bot tom is very foul with barnacles gathered in oriental waters, and there is no chance for her getting service at any drydock hereabout, she was carefully beached on the city sands here yesterday afternoon, and between the pressure of the sands, the action of the fresh water, and the work of her crew in skinning off the impediment, she will be compara tively free in a few days,ind will go on to the metropolis. 1 Captain George Conway, superintend ent of water lines for the O. R. & N. Company, was in the city yesterday to meet Superintendent E. R. Butt, of the L R. & N. Railway, at Ilwaco, and en deavor to arrange for the handling of the Potter's big excursion business daily to the north shore beaches; but at the close of business yesterday nothing of a fixed nature has been determined upon and the matter is. for the moment in the air. Under the law, no stern-wheel vessel can enter the channels on the northside and hence the Hassalo, nor the Harvest Queen, nor Oklahoma, can be utilized for the service. But it is ex pected something will be arranged by Saturday. Sailmaker Erickson, of the German ship Emilie was sent to Portland on the evening express yesterday, and will be operated on there for the malady that has assailed his knee.

PREDICTION MADE BY NEW YORK SUN Mountains of Smoke. Yesterday after noon people were all agape at the moun tainous volumes of smoke arming from the heights west of the city. It seemed from the water levels as if the entire forests there must be in flames, but it was soon ascertained that it came from the burning of the slashings on the new reservoir park site of the water commission. STARTLES POLITICIANS BY PRE DICTING THAT NEW YORK' NEXT GOVERNOR WILL BE DEMOCRAT, AND ALSO OUR NEXT PRESIDENT WASHINGTON. D. C, July 23.-Th New York Sun has set the politician all agog by a prediction which ran about as follows! "The next governor of the State of New York wit be a democrat "The next Governor of the State of New York will be the next President of the United States." Nothing at all of Bryan or the Bryan boom. The Kebraskan is counted out, not only for the election but even for the nomination, which other people have been conceding was his without the asking. The politicians want to know what ths Sun meant; they want the Sun to name it man. Is it Hertt That is the easiest conclusion at which to arrive, but the Sun is anything rather than a Hearst organ; and the Sun is not in the habit of boosting public men whom it doesn't like. The New York World, a year or so ago, made the solemn prediction that Theodore Rooevelt would succeed him self as President on March. 4, 1900, and the World has stuck to it ever since. The World doesn't like Roosevelt In the White House at all. and this is its way of fighting him. Perhaps the Sun's prediction may have been intended to help the warring republican factions to get together. If the efforts to bring about har mony fail of effect, the republican situa tion in the Empire State certainly will have an ugly aspect, and the election of a democratic governor could be accept ed as natural result. Any democrat with the triumph of a successful campaign for the New York governorship fresh upon him would lie a presidential quantity of weight in ordinary seasons, but just now it would be hard to find a democrat, aside fro mthe Hearst enthusiasts, who was inclined to go to New York for a presidential candidate. PARIS PAPERS ON THAW CASE BIS EPISODES IN GAY FRENCH CAP ITOL ARE TOLD AGAIN HE HAD QUEER TEMPER -HIS FRIENDS THOUGHT HIM DEMENTED. PAULS. July 1. The French newspa pers are printing many stories of the movements of Harry Thaw during his visit to France, some of which are probably true, other of which are un questionably fale. Many of those clues are being sifted out by the representa tives of the district attorney of New York county. One of his acquaintances who has been authorited to make spec ial Inquiries concerning hi career in France say that he spent hi winter In the Riviera, at Nice, Monte Carlo, and San Remo in turn. A member of the American colony, who w on very in timate term with Mr. Thaw, has given the following particular about him: The possessor of an enormous fortune, he was able, during hi sojourns In Paris, to entertain frequently, and on a lavish scale, t fashionable hotels, many notabilities among the foreign residents being invited to these parties. One evening he dined in company with La Belle (Hero, Cleo de Merotle, and Diana de Pmigy, and this was the "diner de troi beauties," . It was known at the time among these actresses that Mr. Thaw had queer temper. The least thing put him out, as he was extremely touchy, Sonje excuse for these outbursts was to lie found in the fact that hi intellect wa by no mean brilliant. This was re- ninrked and deplored by men who went about a good deal with him, and had a feeling that some accident or drama due to the mental inferiority from which they knew him tc- ve suffering would oc cur in his life. Their fears have been justified by the recent tragedy. An in teresting and hitherto unpublished in) COFFEE WE ARE SOLE AGENTS FOR Greggs Brands of Coffees JUST RECEIVED A FRESH SHIPMENT TODAY.

McClelland of that city declared that he was sending over one of the police officials from New York to study the traffic question with a view to further improving the traffic regulations of the American metropolis 'and making the American system stand ; ard.
