Mr. and Mrs. Jaunsen are now making their home in Clackamas, but formerly resided here and have many friends who were, indeed, saddened to learn of their loss. Washington. Aug. 5.—Leaving the question of his independent candi dacy for the senate unsolved, Sena tor Robert N. Stanfield is on his way to Portland. Upon leaving Wash ington he declared he had on an nouncement to make, and that noth ing need be expected from him un til after he had looked over the field at first hand. He left his friends here in complete uncertain ty as to his final action. Pressure upon the senator to say that he will not be a candidate re cently has been renewed, with indi cations that Frederick Steiwer, or his managers, in combination with Steiwer’s leading newspaper sup porter, are acting in concert to force a declaration from Stanfield. It has been urged upon him that Steiwer personally had nothing to do with the spurious yellow tickets, and it ha9 also been urged that the vo!ume of such tickets was not suf ficient to affect the result. Senator Stanfield is understood to have received these suggestions without enthusiasm. He feels that the number of false ballots has little to do with it, since the evil design has been revealed and proof se cured that it was deliberately con ceived and in part, at least, carried out. If Steiwer had promptly repu diated and denounced the methods used in his behalf and assisted in clearing up the clouds that hang ov er the conduct of his supporters on primary day, there might have been another story. JACKSON CLUB BANQUET Governor Pierce and Bert E. Ha ney, candidate for U.

Matters of political interest to the state and nation will be discussed. Both gentlemen are entertaining speakers. Safe government, law en forcement and the merchant marine will be discussed fully.
