During his term of office for the past three years he has labor, ed zealously for the best interests of the party. As an earnest and effective worker Mr. Baker de serves great credit The year 1906 promises to be one of the greatest activity and growth in the history of Portland. Already a half doxen or more modern sky scrapers have been planned for erection this year in Oregon's metropolis. Portland al ready has the foundation built for a large city and it is only a .ques tion of time and not a great length of time either wheu Portland will have double the present population. Practically the bulk of the busi ness of Oregon ia centralized in the city of Portland and there can be no better indication of the growth of the etate than in the growth of Portland. Portland cannot grow without prosperous condition, in the state. Judiie E. B. Watson Candidate for Republican Nomina tion for United States Senator, Long Term, Commencing March 4,1907. Lewis Kinney, whos announce ment appears in the Gazette as a candidate for the nomination for county o erk, is a deserving man with many friends in Monow county. It is a well known fact that the office of county clerk is an important position and the citi zens and taxpayers demand a com. petent and trustworthy official to fill this office. Mr. Kinney can be recommende I as a capable and sat isfactory man for l he place. Nat urally, he is accommodating and is well fitted for the office. In the endorsement of Mr. KiDney, the Gaz-tte has the satisfaction of knowing thit we are expressing the sentiment of a large number of Morrow county's solid citizens. The Gazette has no ax to grind in the contest for clerk. It is strictlj a question of the best interests of Morrow county. Jl U(iL II. J. BEAK. Judge II. J. Bean republican candidate for nomination as circuit judge of the sixth judicial district, was in Morrow county last week in the interest of his candidacy Mr. Ban has a large number of old acqaiintatices in Morrow county. He has practiced law in this district the past twenty-five years, during which time he nas made many warm friends. xie was aaruittea to tne oar in the state of Maine, March 1881 and the following June he came to Pendleton, Oregon, where he has since eDjoyed a good and growing practice. He was elected to the legislature in 1888. He also nerved two terms as district attor ney, being elected to that office in 1896 and re-elected in 1898. He was also elected to the office of couDty judge of Umatilla county in 1904. The judge i a life-long republi ran. His qualificitious for the office of Circuit Judge are un iuestionel by the leading attor neys of ibis dis'.iict and all the people who know bim. He will teceive a good substantial support in both Umatilla and Morrow counties. Human Blood Marks. A tale of horror was told by mark of baman blood in the home of J. W. Wil liams, s well known merchant of Bsc, Ky. He writes : "Twenty years ago I bad severe hemorrhages of the lungs, and was near death when I began tak ing Dr. King's New Discovery. I com pletely onred me and I have remained well ever since." It cores Hemorrhages, Cnronio Coughs, Settled Colds sod Bronchitis, snd is the only known cars for weak laogs. Every bottle guaran teed by Patterson & Son, druggists. LOo and SI. Trial bottle free. Judge Watson was born in Iowa and crossed the plnins with his parents, one sister, two older and two youger broth ers, in 1853. Ttie family passed their first winter in Oregon in Lane county, near Eugene, and the next summer re moved to Douglas county and settled ou a farm. Judge Watson passed the next nine yea'son the farm and then attend ed Pacific University at Forest Grove, from which he was graduated in 1866. at the age of 21. He then read law with his oldest brother, the late Judge James Fintey Watson, at Roeeburg; was admitted to the bar in 1868, and lo cated at Jacksonville, Or., for the prac tice of the law. He served one term as county judge, one term as county clerk, and one term as justice of the supreme court, while residing at Jacksonville, snd then removed to Portland, where he has ever since resided, engaged in the practice of his profession. Judge Watson is not anew man in polictics or public life. His long and close application to the study and prac tice of the law has given him a place among the foremost lawyers ot the state, and may be presumed to have qualified him in a marked degree to participate in the discussion at.d settlement of the great questions of law that are contin ually arising in the course of legislation by congress. He is a Republican of tne most pro nounced type, and belh ves i maintain ing the ascenJancy of the Republ cn party in administration and control of public affairs. He believes in the ne cesiity for internal improvements and in the light of the people of the State of Oregon to call upon the general gov ernment to appropriate sufficient funds for such purpose, and, if elected to the senate, will make every possible effort to obtain suitable appropriations for the speedy completion of the improvements already begun, and the initiation of such other works of the same character as may be proper and feasible. He be lieves in the principle of the protective taaifif, bnt not in the retention of tariff laws after the necessity for protection has passed away, and, therefore, favors an "up-to-date" tariff revision. He be lieves in rural mail delivery acd the ex tension of the mail service to include the proposed system of parcels post. He is profoundly convinced that the great issue before the people of the United Stats Bt the present time is whether corporations and trusts sbalj continue to dominate political action and public legisUiion, as iu times past or be forced to retire within their own proper sphere of activity and influence. And he believes in railroad rate legisla tion in accordance with the measure recently adopted bv the house, and now pending in the senate, without amend ment, attempting either to enlarge or restrain the ordinary jurisdiction of the courts; and that any such amendment would prove futile, if not mischievovs And he especially favors such action bv congress as will compel the preeert claimants of the railroad subsidy grant and Coos Bay military wagon road grant, iu Oregon, to open the lands so granted to settlement and purchase, in accordance with the condition on which each of gsid grants was made, as fol lows: "That the lands granted bv the act aforesaid shall be sold to actual settlers only, in quantities not greater than one quarter section to one pur chaser, and for a price not exceeding $2.50 per acre." Judge Watson pledges himself, it elected to the senate to make every ef fort within his power to secure such legislation by congress as will cause this condition to be respected and these lands opened up to settlement snd A STIIONU EHDORSEjnlCKT.

Aitkin is held by the pcop'e of Hunting ton, among whom be has resided for the past 18 years, the following resolutions, passed unanimously by the city council last Monday night are most significant and speak in unmista tab's terms of their utmost confidence in his abil ty and integrity: RESOLUTIONS OF CONFIDENCE.

We lea n that Ralph W. Hoyt, candi date for State Treasurer, is making rapid gains and now appears to have a certainty of the nomination. Mr. Hoyt s strength is accounted for from the publicity given his liberal policy in depositing State Funds col lected in a county, in the banking insti tutions of ibat county. This not only materialy helps the smal'er banking interests of the state, but the merchant and farmer, as well, because it places more money iu circulation that would otherwise be drawn to the large money centers. Ill Record Is Ills Platform. purchase. flat Salary for State Printer. The only Republican candidate for State Printer who has declared for a flat salary is J. R. Whitney, the p-esent incumbent. In his platform lie says: I baye given this subject careful study, and believe there are two meth ods by which the cost of printing could be kept down to a minimum. One is to limit the volume of printing and revise the scheme of prices upon an up-to-date bai8, the same as that of commer cial pnntiog generally. The other is for the State to own and operate its own printing plant, and to pay the State Printer a reasonable flat, fixed salary Either of these plans, or similar plans along these lines, which Ue Legislature might adopt for the betterment of the service, would meet my hearty support. Worthy of Support. In its issue of March 8, the Weste'n Oregon of Cottage Grove, Lane county, has the following editorial mention of H. M. Cake's eandidacy for United States Senator : "Hon. H. M. Cake, of Multnomah county, has announced that he is candidate for United States Senator, and asks the people's support at the primaries, and if successful, he will be on the Republican ticket for the June election against Senator Geario. Mr. Cake is a member of the Portland Com mercial Club and the Oregon Develop ment League, and has been an officer of the Club, but before entering upon bis political campaign, he resigned the p-esidency of the Club and because simply a private. Mr. Cake is a suc cessful business man, socially strong and otherwise available. No candidate now before the people for senator is more worthy of support, and tr.is would probably be true were the number in creased to a dozen." if. e. 1'oij.ick ton j i imv.. Well Known Pendleton Attorney for Circuit Item li. The visit of Hon. J. R. Whitney, to Douglas county the past week has strengthened his political fences im mensely. People find him a business like man, one who is able to stand upon his past record, and one who is amply ab'e to fill the i ilicn to which he aspires. Mr, Whitney has been conducting the the sta'e prii.tinj ofhee in n manner to at once commend the attention and re spect of bl' taxpayers of the state of Oregon. He is making tl.e i ace on bin reeord and hopes to win purely oa n erit. He is not a mud lingjr, but accords to his opponents all the credit that is due them. By taking such a fair, sensible course be is making friends on all sides. Roeburg News. Announcement. My name will appear on the Republi can Nominating EUllot as a candidate For ti overnor.
