arrival of tho train has not been

that will bo mado in tho train sorvlco
to' this city. On the main lino many
changes havo been made, and sched

to ordors received at the local offices!;!
about their spending it.
It promises to bo ono goodly ses

Hoir IiikN Trcn.su rend i I p.
It is now pretty definitely settled
that O. P. Hoff, state labor commis
sioner, has secured the Republican
nomination for state troasurer. This
Is equivalent to an election, despite
tho fact that It Is understood ono or
two of tho disgruntled five who op
posod him havo talked of sending
out an independent to get his scalp.
It is bllevcd that tho good Republican
brethren will bo decidedly leary this
yoar about sending out any Independ
ents. Tho harmony club will not bo
Inclined to stand for It. But that Is
neither hero nor thero; it Is a safe
bet that Hoff will eat any Independ
ent allvo.
And a few words about HofT. Ills
first namo Is Olo, which allows one
guess or rathor two as to his na
tionality. Two Is allowed because ho
If a Norwegian and not a Swedo.
Anyway, Olo has been branded as n
dangerous radical, as a socialist, a
doinagoguo and a few other things.
Tho fact of life matter Is, he is norio
of theso. Anyono who knows 111 in
well at all will adhere to that diag
nosis of his caso. Ho has been state
labor commissioner for 15 years, nnd
if he was keen on pulling any French
revolution or Dauton and Marat stuff
clluod to tlukln tho ribs of labor, bn-
cause labor Iiiih been prutty friendly
to him. But ho hasn't socialized, or
over.democratlzod, or Jeopardized tho
doparlniont, so far as tho records
show, In dull, cold facts, ho has
boon somewhat over-conservative If.
anything, and this Is a more uiat'or
of record, not a statement of opinion
No doubt ho will carry tho same
policy Into tho treasurer's office.
Ktcctlou Would Pleiioo Some.
Ills election will also please some
of tho boys now on tho Job, As an
Instance It was generally considered
that Ryan's election would moan the
can tied to Arthur Lawrenco, state
printer. Rumor had It that lien
West, ono of tho candidates for treas
urer, might laud that Job If Ryan
also lauded. How far rumor Is cor
rect Is not known, but It Is certain
that West, who Is a union printer,
gouged Into Huff's vote. If West
hadn't been In the race It would have
been a walkaway for Hoff. Tho re
turns Indicate that. It. 11 Goodlu,
secretary of thu stato board of con
trol, probably would also havo
wulkod the political plank and have
been soused In the waters of oblivion
had Ryan landed. A few more ofi
tho boys no doubt would hnvo taken '
tho mi mo Journey. As It Is some-
other lads no doubt will bo hunting
for Jobs along about July 2. Spence
Wortman, sealer of weights and
measures, who receives his appoint
ment from the stato treasurer, han
dled Ryan's campaign to n largo ex
tout. Ho Is certain to leave early
and avoid tho rush. Also It Is prob
able that tho four or llvo employes
In tho treasurer's offlco will be read
ing want columns In tho early part
of what promises to bo n rather cold
January. Somo of tho boys wore In
clined to Joke a little about Olo' can-
dldncy and thero was a little Joko
going tho rounds of tho capital bo
foro tho election that tho treasurer's
force was learning tho Scandinavian
tongue. At any rato It is noticeable
that somo of tho boys working In the
offlco thoro havo become very ossldl-
ous In thu handling of their war gar
dens over since tho primaries Spuds,
no doubt, will bo high nnd an extra
sack or two In- tho cellar will como
in handy.
No Danger of Socialism.
But ono fact remains that If any
bollovcd Hoff would turn tho treas
urer's ofllco Into a carnival of social
Ism ho will be sadly mistaken. One
good guess Is that ho will give n
clean, conservative and honest ad
ministration of affairs there, Thero
Isn't much more to bo asked for In
theso times. This Is based on tho
way ho has been handling the af
fairs of his prehcnt office for 15
years and also upon the fact th.-t

Governor Wlthycombn Is tackling
qulto a dellcato problem these days
in keeping Joy and peaco reigning
nmong tho nowly organized military
units of tho state, Tho Homo Guard
companies aro mado up largely of
business nnd professional mon, who
have good Jobs, good homes and good
families, with generally good sized

month. Theso samo mouthers of the
Homo Guard aro ready and willing

instances it has been declared that
the move is inspired by n Portland
clique that wishes to get out from
under the adjutant geuernl and put
a burr In that worthy's chair The
governor does not believe this to be
tho case, but ho personally feels
that tho contention of the home
guurds Is allvu with merit. What tho
effect of this situation would be from
a military standpoint is another
matter, however. Tho governor ad
mits that he Is not n military man,
albeit, that ho Is commander-in-chief
of tho land nnd sea forces of this
great commonwealth, and conse
quently ho has put the matter up to
tho general staff, tho properly con
stituted military authorities of tho
State, to discuss. Ho has asked a
report from them, and after he re
ceives tho report, ho will act ns ho
sees lit.
Adjutant General Will Remain.
