The hoodoo number conititutea a ma- Jorlty of the Republican membera of the aenate, and. not even the fact that . It ia an unlucky omen clouds the brlght- rtess of the prospect! for their candl . date's election. In short, with the close of the week and only a fortnight re ' tnalnlng before the convening of the ' I atate legislature. Davey and . Haines I have a clear track ahead of them. Ob- Steele. Of course, may appear before ' their respective goale are reached, but f their sympathiser pay but llttTe heed .to Idle. talk. The election of the two is ; claimed without any provlsoa attached, and the possibility of a, dark horse en ' termg the raoe la viven no credence by the supporters of the two men. t ...

Jonea, they eay, haa only two ' other votes besides hla owa; Vawter has been depending largely . upon the f central Oregon delegation, and this is - ' likely to be split at the final vote, while Chapln haa been unable to hold hla own county together in the trial heat of the race. In fact, the lack of unity tn Cha ln'a Multnomah delegation waa looked upon yesterday aa the deathknnll of his hopes,, learjng tba struggle to Davey and Vawter.-. . .' - v- . -. ... Chapia'a followers look upon the mat- teri differently, however, and aay that v- there la more than a chance that he will ' yet gather together tha bulk of Multno- ' tnah'a strength... Again; thia statement Is set aside by the assertion that there - Is a definite possibility that Chapln- will 1 lay down what few chances remain' for ' i film nd )oln tha Vawter camp.. So the political kaleidoscope Just now 'throws only two- figures clearly upon the can f as Davey and Vawter, with tha odds " s favoring tha former. v -?- j; ' V ytm.mtrr rmnl Btrena-tfe. -' ' .. t Davey'a preaent strength Ilea .In the pi pledged mea-who have rallied .to Ms , standard, nvi or ineae oeiong to atuit tioraah's1 delegation and Include J.

Mr. Devlin was seen st his home last night, and . asked what he thought of the proposed tag levy for the city. Ha said: ;.. "The data are ait at my office In . the city hall, and the- figures I can give are only approximate. And I would like to state that no one Is Closer to the people, or feels the de- , tnands of the people for extensive city Improvements more than the ' council men. "But the proposed tax levy is very - high. As an example of the great in ' crease In city expenses In the last two or thre years, the fir department may , be mentioned. The expenses for the fir department In lAOf were S1S6.000, In round numbers. In 10 they wen . about 12(0.000. For 1907 It Is esti mated that 1409.000 will be needed, and this does not Include the proposed new flrebost, which will cost approximately ' II 10,000. -nor many other Items for the .'extension of the service that would cost about half aa much more. J I .. Increased Expenses. ' v "Tha eat (mated expense ef maintain . Ing the parka Is increased from 125.001 .' to 171.000, an Increase of oo per cent. Tha increase In tha health department , Is nearly 80 per cent, from about . I2S.O00 to 195.000. This Includes a garbage crematory and other thlnga. In tha atreet repair department tha In crease I about 60 per cent In tha en wlneer'a office about pet cent; Ik the treat cleaning department. o per cent or more. i s -"That la anough to give an Idea M the estimated Increase In certain de . rartments. There seems to me to be-a danger of establishing a rat of taxa ' turn In tha preaent good time that ", would prove vary embarrassing in less . proeperous times, should they .aver . com. 'There la' an insistent demand frem .!! sides thai the - Improvements made, but' It is a question for careful consideration wbtUier ail Improvement ranka of the Marlon ceunty candidate, but the statements made by W. I. Vaw ter, who came to Portland yesterday and opened up headquarters at the Imperial, tend to discredit tha assertions of the enthuslastlo Davey men. Mr. Vawter and hla loyal onea have begun a cam paign which will not end. they aay, un til onror the other of the candidates la well up on top and defeat Impossible. In consequence, their energies will be brought to bear upon the eight remain ing membera of Multnomah'a delega tion atill out of the fold, and itls be lieved that during the present week the settled position of these elgWt will be come known. Vawter aupportera claim to be making Inroads In Pavcy' lineup, and ao tha atruggle goea merrily on. . Whispers of Bark Bona. . . lit yeaterday afternoon thee were whlapera of that Inevitable dark horse In relation to tba speakership. From tha hotel lobby, down tha atreet and. back a rain, there waa "talk of the East ern Oregon man who In all probability will be sprung as a candidate ior ne speakership after tha others have com pleted the building of their fences and feel certain that the prlxo ia lodged In safe hands. - For sevrral days past tna political enemies of Frank Davey have v been working tb test the strength of J. F. Hendrlck of Wasco and yesterday there waa a rumor to the effect that-JtttC last attempt to gain the speakership prise would ba to unite tha forces o all of the opposing candldatea In favor of 'the Eastern Oregon-wan. : ; ' Xendrloks, rerhapaly : ' Hendrlck la credited with the warm support of Malcolm A. Moody and tha fact that ha halls from Wasco county In tha district eaat of tha Cascades, which has long, been dented the honor of the speakership In tha house, la one of - tba chief argumenta of thoaa who believe that he may prove a strong factor In breaking Into Davey'a strength. Tha effort to bring out Hendricks at thia late data la In Itself an admission that Davey'a fight ia all ' but won. Nevertheless there are aoma who are sanguine enough to believe that It will not be aa Impossible task to taka from Davey hla Eastern Oregon following If tba Wasco man enters the race aa la now planned, and with thia support to gether with tha balance of the district east of the mountains, which la certain to go to an Eastern Oregon candidate, they argue that Hendricks' election might result 7 . V, Aboat Senator Hodson. . j.. . There was 'little mention made, yea terday of Senator Hodson and his run for the prealdent'a chair. In fact, ao far aa that position Is concerned. It la broadly atated that hla aua haa aet. Haines' grip on the place la too atrong to be broken and each day apparently adda height to tha barracks he ia build ing for himaelf. Hodson's defeat la analogoua to fail ure on tga part of Jack Mathews to control tha higher branch of the state leglalature In hla attempt to ward' off any legislation detrimental to- tha cor porate lntereata -which he represents. Had Hodson . been ; nailed Into the aeat to , which ha- aspired It la more than probable that tha proposed railroad laws, trafflo regulatlona and. amend ments to the tax laws would have found a silent death In the nraeon holes ao numerous and easy of acceas when tha occasion requires. ' But Hodson ia. de feated, so far aa present Indications can be taken,' and with his eer-back ' is ehronlcled, too. the passing of Mathews aa a dominant fadtor In the atate legla lature. At tha last session f the legis lature the former boss of Portland -politics received some hard blowa during his campaign-of lobbying, and Hodson's defeat is looked upon by those wtjo do not admire Matnews and nia wavs from a political standpoint, aa tha last straw ton tha camera .back. ' , VERY HIGH should ba made in one year. "A better method would seem , to be to take a fair share of them each year, and not try to do It all at once. " Borne uniform limit on the increase In ex penses In each department ought to ba fixed, and it might b put as high a 50 per cent. But there ought to be euch a limit "It haa been urged that large amount hav been made through Increased values In real estate, and that the prop erty owners are therefore abl to pay the tax. Tha fact Is that (0 per cent of the property owners are men who own their hornet, and only a email per centage of th property' owners have made much money In Increased real aetata. "The burden of the taxes for the city rests on th. small property ownera. and when hard times come, whan money Is scarce and Work hard to get, the bur den of an expensive city government would bear heavily on these owners 6f tha homes. raoplo too Liberal. "The people aeem verv liberal In their willingness to pay for Portland s needs. substantial Increase In the salaries of firemen and policemen la necessary In order- to keep good men In these de partments, and will have to come. Such Incresses ara recognised generally aa urgent necessities, not only by the heads of the departments where thev are needed, but by others as well. "But It should be born In mind that thee Increases ar but a verv small part of the total proposed Increase In the city expenses. The estimates of the executive heads of all tha depart ments have been' passed without paring, and hav been recommended to th city council. Theae estimates Include every thing the heads of tha department think they should have, and in paaelng them to-the city council, no reductlona have been made. . "The council thus has not only" the pressure of constituents In tha various parts of the city, but the recommenda tions of the executive heads of the dif ferent departments of thd city' govern ment to consider. Th question Is one to which too careful attention cannot be given, and I believe tha council will give It the consideration It demands,, and act with wisdom In levying the city tax." PERSONAL John A.
