Dlmlck, for the last three years county judge of Clackamas ctunty, and for five years mayor of Oregon City, ha? announced his can didacy for the Republican nomination for Governor of Ore;on, after being .irged by many people from all yarts of the state to make the run. His friends teil that should he be the nominee of the party of his adoption, no issus could ever be made about his being of foreign birth, or about hl3 true Americanism, since he was born on a farm on Pud ding River, In Marlon county, Ore ;on, the son of one of the most prominent G. A. R. men who ever drew sword in his country's behalf. He was admitted to the bar of Ore gon In 1895, and located the follow ing year in Oregoi City, where ha ,ias established himself firmly in the hearts of the people of that city and county. He has successfully filled the office of deputy district attorney 1 years; mayor of Oregon City five successive terms, and has served as :ounty judge two years. In 1904 he was a presidential elector on the Republican ticket, speaking In many sections of the state, and received over 40,000 plurality. The Oregon City Enterprise, in the issue announcing the candidacy of Judge Dlmick, has a long editorial. speaking in eulogistic terms or him, and pledging 5000 voles solid from "Old Clackamas." It Is very early for candidates for governor, since the primary election deciding this contest will not take place until in Sepember, 1910, but evidently ths Clackamas man feels that If "the early bird catches the worm" the prize in this case should be his.

Jan. 26 Ques tions of great importance to cattle men throughout the country, espe cially In the west, will be discussed at the 12th annual convention of the American National Live Stock Asso ciation, beginning here today and lasting three days. Hundreds of del egates, among whom are owners of some of the biggest of western ranches, throng the streets of the fclty. Among the Important questions which will come before the conven tion will be the proposed revision of the tarlfT In Its relation to meat, hides, wool and other proauciB oi iue live' stock Industry. It Is expected that the association will adopt resolutions favoring the enactment of laws for adequate rail road service, the furnishing of plenty of freight cars and other problems of transportation. TO STOP HORSE RAGING Pool Sellers Are Struck by Conster nation Farms Will Suffer. San Francisco, Jan. 25. That rac ing in the state of California is doomed and that the present season lit the famous Emeryville and Santa .Anita courses will mark the passing of the "sport of the kings," Is the opinion of the majority of race fol lowers at Sacramento. The passage of the Walker-Otis nntl-racetrack bill by an overwhelm Ing majority in the lower house has t pread consternation In the rankB of the opponents of the proposed law. The bill as passed by the house Is r.imllar to the Humphreys anti-race track bill which has suppressed pool selling In New York. The poolsell ;rs In California will be ullowed 60 days in which to wind up their af fairs from the time the document Is signed by the governor.. The effect of the closing of the racetracks in California will be wide ly felt. The county fairs, at which trotting meets are annually held In various parts of the state during the summer months, will be forced to abandon these events. The great breeding farms which have made this state famous the world over, will re ceive a death blow. In the event of the closing of the racing establishments In this state, it is fairly certain that racing will be shifted to Nevada or Lower Call lornia.
