JAS. WITHYCOMBE
WILL TRY AGAIN
FOR GOVERNORSHIP
James Witliycombe, of Corvallls.
Republican nominee fur governor lu
ln;, is going to try It again. Al
ready, two years before the next elec
tion, he Is holding his ear to the
ground and Is considering the call or
the people.
Mr. Witliycombe was a Portland
visitor yesterday, and, so the story
goes, opened the Pandora's box or
his political ambitions while here In
conversation with K. E. Williams.
National Republican committeeman
ror Oregon. At that time, so It Is
reported, Mr. Withycomhe said he
was receiving urgent and insistent
requests rrom friends throughout the
state In large numbers urging him
to be a candidate and that he was
considering the proposition..
Previous to this, also, Mr. Wittiy-
combe had intimated that he would
get Into the race again when the time
came, several times, nowever, since
his defeat In June, 190B, lie has been
emphatic in his contention that he
was out or politics ror good, tteceni
utterances, though, show that Mr.
Wlthycomljo still desires to be gov
ernor, and that he will attempt to
realize his ambition at the first op
portunity.
I he probable candidacy or Mr.
Wlthycombe adds one more to the al
ready long list of prominent men
who have their eyes on the place. Up
in Eastern Oregon Judge Stephen A.
owell, of Pendleton, is reputed to
be a possible candidate. Superinten
dent of Public Instruction Ackerman
is also a candidate. J. W. Bailey,
state dairy and food commissioner,
has hlB eye on the job, so his friends
say, though Mr. llalley heniself will
not admit it. District Attorney Cam
eron is also training his forces on
the stntehouse at Salem. Judge L.
H. Webster is talked of as a possibil
ity. Then In addition there are per
haps a dozen other men who either
are being urged to train ror the race
or who are urging that they should
do so. It Is a certainty that there
will be plenty of men to fill the place
when the time comes for the people
to decide who will bo governor.

THIRTY-SEVENTH CHICAGO
FIRE ANNIVERSARY
Chicago, 111., Oct. !). Today was
the thirty-seventh anniversary of the
great Chicago fire, one of the most
disastrous conflagrations In the his
tory of modern times. The event is
not generally celebrated, but several
societies, among them the Old Set
tlors and Pioneers, always hold an
niversary meetings to exchange rem
iniscences of the exciting events that
followed the act of Mrs. O'Leary's
famous cow in kicking over the burn
ing kerosene lamp in its stable on
DeKoven street.
Tho great Chicago fire burned
about twenty-four hours and during
that time destroyed within a district
about four miles long and one mile
wide, 1 8,000 buildings, Including the
most pretentious structures In the
business section, blotted out about
100 Uvea and altogether destroyed
property to the value of $200,000-000.
