J. Slater of Pendle ton, a brother of former Justice) W. T. Slater, Is presumed to be the nominee. as his name was largely , written In He will accept the nomination. No attempt was made to tabulate the returns on delegate to the nation al convention or electors In either party. The vote la widely scattered and it win b several days before the 10 dele gates of each party can be named. Un der the presidential primary law the Republican delegates go to Chicago instructed for Roosevelt and the Demo cratic) de'egates will go to Baltimore lnntructed for Wilson. The office of elector is a perfunc tory one. The Democrats hid a full ticket of five, Hugh McLaln of Coos, Will M. Peterson of Umatilla, J. M. Wall of Washington, and D. M. Watson nd V. C. Whltten of Multnomah be ing elected. AI. J. Mac Mahon was the only Republican candidate for elect or on the ballot. He Is elected, and four others have been chosen by writ lng In names, but who they are will not be certain for some time. Incomplete returns from 25 rounds including Multnomah, give.

Tho strength shown by Dr. Cottel was one of the surprises of the election Mlckle and Lea had been considered leaders and the outcome was seriously doubted by all prophets of the dairy and food commissioner fight. Mlckle made his campaign strlcftly on a pure-food, pure-milk basis, announcing his Intention of enforcing state laws re quiring these things and avowing his belief In the efficacy of the tuberculin test as a means of weeding out diseased animals. Lea's platform was similar, as, Indeed was that of Dr. Cottel, who had been active In securing pure milk legis latlon. Edwards is a comparative new comer.
