Besides, be has other . Important administrative ' and veto ' functions; in fact. Is a very Influential ' factor In the city 'a government. ' Among thoee spoken of as possible or probable candidates before the Republi can primaries are Thomas C Devlin, Major C E. McDonell, I Zimmerman, Judge W. M. Cake, Whitney I Boise, Oeorge afoMlllan, John Annand and ..George J. Cameron. . . Undoubtedly ' Thomas C Devlin la trimming his sails for the race. And, It ..gossip la any criterion he will be played aa one of the favorites. Mr. Devlin Is j now serving hie third term as elty audi tor. - He la popular; aa proved by hie strong majorities at tha past three elec tions. - It la eald that Devlin has been laying his plana for the peat two years to enter the eonteat for the mayoralty. Major C. E. McDonell, known as a ' 4ahlna offleer of tha PhlllDDlne volun- 4 tears and a former county assessor. Is strong with the younger Republican He was a candidate for the Republican ' nomination for sheriff In 1104. but was , defeated by James Btott, who was In . turn defeated by the Democratic candi date, Tom Word. It is said to be a J certainty that McDonell will enter the fight with vim and vigor. v I Zimmerman Is reported to be an aaxloua aspirant for the Juicy plum. Mr. ,,. Zimmerman waa formerly a member ot the council, but has been out of politics for two years.

Practical demonstrations of their abil ity to guide an automobile through the busiest -etreeCto dodge bewildered pe destrians snd playing children, to make repairs te the machine and to bring a parts' safely home will be demanded of 'livery., chauffeurs In Portland before long. Both the Automobile club and ntei tern of the etty council are agreed on -the necessity for better regulations of -. -"pay" autoa. The auto people want to forestall anything which will tend to ' bring their beloved chug-chugs Into dla .. favor. v The eouneilmen are thinking ot the nubile outcry against reckless driving. It la almoat certain that the Autorao- , bile -elub will furnish theexaminers of ' would-be chauffeurs. Not until these pilots have received a certificate of their ability to manage the machine un der any condition will they be granted a lioense by the city. It le probable that at the same time the lloense fee for hack autoa will be raised.' At present it Is 111 a quarter, Just the eame as paid by horse usees, whose receipts are far less, and which during the day do not etend on princi pal etreeto waiting' for business. . Councilman Vaughn will soon Intro-.- dues aa ordinance providing the pro posed regulations. An amendment to the license ordinance will also be prob ably Introduced at the same time. . "Something ot this kind must be done very soon to prevent reckless driving." gave Mr. Vaughn. . ' . 'The matter will be brought up be fore the Automobile club," says B. P. Cannon, chairman of the roade commit tee of the club. -"We are willing to do our share toward' preventing reckless driving." - ' There are 10 autoa which hold licensee ' to run for hire. Jt le believed that several more machines are evading the llrsnse fee.

Cake, though It la not known that he has expressed hie Inten tion of becoming a candidate, la, never theless, spoken of and Counted on as a possible factor.' Mr. Cake waa formerly county Judge., He la now chairman of the Republican county central commit tee, which ehowe that be la In favor with the dominant element of the party locally. Hla brother.- H. M. Cake, wae recently a candidate for Vnlttd- States senator." Opposed to Bourne. Whitney I Boise, a leading spirit of tha East Side Improvement association, haa played ' the political game before. Mr. Boise was a .few years ago one of the most active members of the Republi can machine,-being allied with the old Matthewa organisation. He waa one of the executive board during the adminis tration of Mayor Williams. , ' Oeotge McMillan, one of the old guard on. the Multnomah . club football x team, would be heavily backed by Multnomah club members. Ia the county conven tion of 1104 he was the Simon candidate for sheriff. He la freely mentioned aa a possibility In the scramble for the mayor's seat. . .-'.' ' John Annand.' manager of the Postal Telegraph company, baa been a council man, alnce the last city election. His term as president of the council haa lust expired and he will probably ha elected again. - If the tuperstltlon is true that a man who holds the office of president of the. council haa the rabblt'e foot on hla aide, Annand may well smile a com placent smile , and. feel sorry for hie opponents. ' '. ,'. lge earners womld TaJts Xs. Like Annand. Police Judge Cameron as not yet spread abroad the fact that he la ready to make tha fight. Never theless. It is known that he haa had hla ear to the ground for aome time, listen''' Ing for sounds- that will be aa music to his ear. If be reoeivee enough encour agement. It ia said that he will oertalnly go before the primaries. Max Cohen, secretary, of the exeoutive board of the "regular Republican cen tral organisation," a leading local O. a P. club, thinks that the fight lies be tween Devlin end Zimmerman.' Ha doee not believe Mayor . Lane will have a chance, even that be will be renominated by the Democrats. In an Interview Co hen said: - 'The. fight in the elty election next spring will be on the office of mayor. and In my opinion the next mayor of Portland wll be Thomaa C. Devlin, the present city auditor. Major Charles E. McDonell or L Zimmerman. "Of the three Devlin and Zimmer man are most likely to be elected. .1 do not regard It aa at all probable that Mayor Lena will be reelected. In fact, 1 doubt very much whether the Demo crats will renominate him. I would not be surprised to see District Attorney John Manning get the' nomination. - "It will be a hard matter to determine before the , first of tbe year how the Republican central organisation or the Republican county central committee will stand. - The entire Republican party will act- aa a' .unit, and we will support the men that we think - best fitted. for the office. ; .There will be more complete unanimity anions: the Republicans next year than ever before. 'There will be a meeting, of the -ex eoutive board of the oentral organiser tlon In September, and afterward the members of the - executive beard will confer with the Republican - central committee.
