TEN BASHFUL ONES SING "I WOULD BE SENATOR" Vacant Seats at Salem Smile Enticingly at Numerous As pirants Who Feel in Duty Hound to Represent the People 3Iaehine Said to Have Turned Up Toes. SCORES UNKNOWn I -i 6tnW sensorial ssplrsnts are sprlne; Inir up these days like the fabled mon tera from the dragons teeth. On every hand new name are bring; brought out anil booms and boomlets are being; In flated to soar in the political hreeae. Already there are more than enough candidate for nominations kt the hands Of the Republican party to fill nil the vacant place and then leave aome over for nood measure. I'p to tho preaent time E R Colwell. Pr. Kmmett Prake, John Gill. Dr. K. O. Clark. H H lleckman, Chris Boll. John b. Coffey, John Prlacoll, V. R. Beach and. H. Russell Albee have come out of the cocoon of desire and bloomed Irto the brilliant chrysalis of expecta tion. All of them want to wear the toga In the senatorial hall at 8ah n when the next legislature convenes and II of thm are planning; to go nut after that garment with might and main. Some of theae gentlemen are well known in political circles In Multnomah county and aome hope to be. K. II. Col wall manufactured statutes up at Snlom during- the session of 1905. Ir. Drake la known aa a local politician, John . Oil! 1 president of the 1'nlon Republi can club which hopea to bind the atate together Into one aolld political family strong; enough to dictate the political destiny of the commonwealth. Pr. Clark la better known In professional than In political life and Mr. Heekman haa foregathered more with the critlca of the law than with Its manufacturer Chris Bell Is also an attorney. John 11. Coffejr was one of the big chieftains at the last aeasion and cracked the whip .in .the lower house aa a reward for baring engineered Frank DaTey Into the speaker's chair. John Drlaeoll was the faithful friend and follower of Mr. Coffey, nlavlng a sort of political Pavld to Coffey's Jonathan. F. K Reach la well known in tho business life of the city and so Is Mr. Albee In tne last em.lon of the legislature Multnomah county had flvo senators It also had n senator Jointly with Co lumhla and Washington counties and another Jointly with Clackamas. In the next session the county will be en titled to six senators. It will also have one Jointly with Columbia and Clacka mas The list of those who represented the county either whom- or In part at the Inst session were C. W. Hudson, Joint with Columbia ano nshlngton; A. A. Roller, Joint with Clackamas, and Dan J. Malarkey. F. P. Maya. fiigmund Sk'l-.el. w. .Nottingham ana s. t Reach from Multnomah alone. Out of this number llodsnn. Malarkey, Maya, filchol ami Nottingham retire through the expiration or their terms of of fice. A. A. Ralley, aa the Joint senator from Clackamas and Multnomah, re tain his office for another term, hav ing been elected In 190. 8. C. Reach Is the only one of the straight delega tion who holds over. It becomes nec essary, therefore, to elect five senators from Multnomah county In June next to fill the vacant places formed by the ex- rlratlons of office and to provide for he one new scnatorshlp established by the redisricting or the state at the last session of the legislature. Aa yet no definite plan of campaign has boon formed for the selection of theae senators, though It Is nnparent that the political leaders are sharpen ing their pencils to fix up a slate. The machine Is dead, so it Is said, but nevertheless the machinists are looklna- over the evnllable material with a view of "Inducing" desirable "candidates to enter the race. And the candidate are coming, like the Campbells of the old time-song Dr. Hrouffher Scorches Cow ards Who Send About Anonymous Warnings.

Whltoomb Rrougher told of an anony moua letter which he had received tell ing him that If he did not atop preach ing the kind of sermons that he de livered October 6, he would be given "the same medicine that Harvey Brown reoelved." The gruesome epistle was made more urgent by decoration of the double cross and two skulls. In the sermon referred to Pr. Rrough er urged speedy punishment for the as aasslna of Ilrown and tu all blackmail ers and slanderers. In his remark last night Pr. Rrougher said: "Whenever our enemies write an anonymous letter ney attempt by threats to frighten us away from doing our duty. These sneaking coward who write anonymous letters probably haven't brains enough to comprehend that no threat that they could possibly make In an anonymous letter would swerve a brave man a hair's breadth from the puth of dutv. No man of any character would permit such an anonymous sfeed to annoy him ror one moment.

When the challenge of faith comes, the doubter should ask whether something better or more rea sonable la before him. The alternative idea of nothingness falls to helD to an understanding- of the deeper things of life. On the other hand, the work of tearing down does not require wisdom.
