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.

ef Linn county propose to make a stiff

With Wilson and Burke in Race,
Poindexter, Insurgent, Has
Better Chances to Win.
(Special DUrwtch to The Journal.)
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

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

at 1:80 the doors are open, and kept
open until 7:30 o'clock In the evening.
J. F. Lightly has been seleoted swim

these hours. He looks after the boys
and girls,' keeps order, and teaches
swimming. It is proposed by the park
board to do something more for the
patrons than furnish a place in which
to bathe. The boys and girls will be
led In directions that will tend for
better morals, sratematlo athletic exer
