1D10. BRIGHT OUTLOO 111 FOR DEMOCRATS IH LINN COUNTY Many Republicans, Disgusted With Assembly Tactics; May Divide Votes and Good Men , Have Chance. , fSDwIal Dtinatph t Thr Sonrnat.1 . Albany, Or.. Aug. 20. Leading Dem ocrats of Linn county are preparing f or ' an aggressive campaign this fall. The county 1 normally Republican by 600, but nevertheless the minority party ha a succeeaea jn saving, a prana or two from the burning at each election. ThU year many -Republican! are heartily dis. ; gusted with the. assembly tactics that have been thrust iipon the party. They will oppose the elate-made ticket tooth and nail and are not afraid to speak ,. right , out : In meeting to that effect. With the defection of a large number of Republican! that Is plainly In eyldenoe tt can be readily seen that the Demo crats stand a good show to land a num ber J their candidates this fall. . They like Harry Ziane. - A between the gubernatorial eandl dates so far announced, there Is seem ingly but little) choice among the Dem ocrats here, .Nine out of every 10 ap proached say that..thay , would like to - see Harry Lane, the ex-mayor of Port land, stand for the nomination, and profess to believe that If it Is possible to. elect a Democratic governor this year. Lane could turn the trick, i The announcement that Mulkey.wlll contest the , congressional nomination with Hawley In the First district leads the Democrats in this part of the dis trict to think that they will have at least a . good fighting chance to eleot their man this year. Hawley Is by no means considered to be as strong a can didate as he was at frst. A great - many who supported' him at the last election sty they will not do so this year If for no other reason than his truckling to the Cannon Interests. Thus present Indications are that the congres. slonal Issue this year, will be a live one. Among those most prominently men tioned . as possible democratic candi dates Is Honorable J. K. Weatherford of Albany, and mtfny of his friends are urging him to take the nomination. Mr. Weatherford Is an able attpmey and Is well and favbrabjy known throughout the state. He Is at man of affairs and t at present a member of the board of State regents. ' For the circuit court Judge William ' Galloway of McMlnnvllle Is a candi date for renomlnation. The southern end of the district has as yet presented no avowed candidate for the second iudgeship.but Samuel M. Garland of Lebanon, William Bilyeu and W, 8. Itls ley of this city have been named in that connection. ' OlMf yield for Killer. In the senatorial field! the present Incumbent, William A. Miller of Leb anon, the ''sage of .the Santiam." will In all likelihood have a clear field. He is conceded to be the strongest man the Democrats have for that position. Fred Dawson of this city, who was a candidate for the nomination four years ago, has also been named, but he has given his friends to understand that he is out of lti J. M. Phillpots of Harrlsburg, will be a candidate for reelection as repre sentative. There are three to be so? leeted. Barney Martin of Brownsville will most probably run and John Dennv of Shelburn, a well known farmer from the forks of the Santiam, has also been mentioned. The keenest Interest centers about the ticket for county Officers this fall as the Democrats feel that with a strong, clean tlrket In the field they stana the best chance ever of winning a majority of the offices. At the pres- ent time they have the sheriff and school superintendent. D. C. Smith Is serving his second term as sheriff, and according to party precedent may step aside. However, his adherents are strongly urging him to stand for a re- ' nomination. It Is understood that If given a clear field Smith wiu run again. Frank M. Stellmafiher of Ajoany is an announced candidate for the honor.. He has served as deputy and Is well qual ified for the position., He is a young ';an and served In the Second Oregon regiment daring the Spanish-American war. Wlrth Huston, also of this, city, is another who may gqfn the.' game .end many think the nomination will lie between him and Smith. .! For county clerk Riley Ghelton of ' Scio seems to be the. choice and for recorder T. J. Anderson of Harrlsburg Is alone In the field thus far, as is also Henry McEltnurray of Albany for the . treasurershlp. , One thing Is assured, the Democrats ef Linn county propose to make a stiff u aiong me una injs year and ,,iopou iur succoss nsvor appearea Vi.

The Sellwood park pool was opened Thursday afternoon. It was boys' day, and splendid use they made of It Fully 200 boys took their first plunge In the new tank, and pronounoed It "bully."

Seattle, Aug. 20 Facing the conting ency of the Insurgent candidate. Miles C. Poindexter, securing the primary In dorsement for the United States senate, the regulars have been making. strong efforts to eliminate one of the two lead ing candidates of their faction. It Is reported that strong friends in the state administration attempted to induce John L. Wilson to withdraw, but he stead, fastly refused. During the past few days persistent rumors were that Judge Thomas Burke .would retire, but upon his return from campaigning In What com county. Burke issued a signed statement declaring he would remain In jthe raca to the end. In part, his letter ays: "On returning home I find the old baseless rumor that I was to withdraw had been resurrected. Now it Is em bellished with the statement that big interests axe going to pull me out There Is no. more foundation for the rumor In this new guise than In the old form. The big Interests, whoever they are, have no more power or Influence over my 'actions than over the-course of the seasons. -I am not a candidate of any interests, big or little." Burke repeatedly declared h ' was willing to submit his candidacy to King county voters, the winner to remain in tt0 race, but Wilson haa no.t consented.' ieaaers or tne regulars now iear ae feat with the King county vo.te divided and, secretly, they admit the strength of Poindexter of Spokane.

' ' REGULARS WILL NOT WITHDRAW the boys. They at last realized they had a place In which to swim. Yesterday waa boys day again, and every lad who could secure the consent of his mother, or If she did not consent the chances are he "slipped away" from home, was there. It is estimated that about S50 boys used the pool during the day. They came from near and far, and the way this amusement has been advertised is remarkable. Every lad In the city, has heard of It, as the news traveled from one to the other like wild fire. Today will be girls' day again. The use of the pool la not limited to chil dren, but all may use It. It la planned to reserve the last hour In the evening for men only. Superintendent Mlsche thinks there ar maftiy men Jn Sellwood who work hard throughout the day, and will be glad to use the pool In the even ing. The pool Is open from 11 o'clock PR ; -:;;:.!!Jt:' until 12 o'clock in the forenoon. Again at 1:80 the doors are open, and kept open until 7:30 o'clock In the evening. J. F.
