tion tor a home. He slated that of .
aii the towns he had visited in Wash-1

In response to a request from W.

den has forwarded requisition blanks
to Mr. Moore for a quantity of trout

of late years has been practically
"fished out."

ted until such time as they have ma

JVULLER PREDICTS
Democratic Party United, SayS
Linn County Senator Upon
Return from the East.
i WILSON WILL CARRY NEW
I YORK AND MINNESOTA
"
Democratic Nominee Has Solid
Support of Party and Will
Carry State of Oregon
With an enthusiasm for Wilson
and Marshall that is only surpassed ! they may be saved,
by his admiration for William Jen- "A little hell is a good thing." he
nings llryan, M. A. Miller, state sen- said in discussing the resolution. "It
ator from Linn county and retiring is absolutely necessary. Take the hu
natioual committeeman for Oregon, j man question from Beginning to end,
returned yesterday from attending the I study it in its everv angle and vour1
democratic national convention at
Baltimore.
Following the convention, Mr. Mil
ler visited New York. Boston and
other eastern cities, including Wash
ington, and called on Woodrow Wil
son at his home at Seagirt, X. J.
"I am not only firmly convinced
that Wilson and Marshall will be
.'lected, nut I am just as sure in 1113'
own 11111111 mat uregon win cast 11s
icuuui me 101 me uraiuium
'nominees," said Mr. Miller to an
uregouiau reporter yesterday
"In mv opinion Wilson is the
strongest man the democrats could
have nomin;-.t"d. Thror.cnout the
east Wilson and Marshall are regard
ed as an unusually strong combina
tion. As a usual thing a contest in a
convention leaves sore spots that re
fuse to heal, nut the outcome of the
Baltimore convention seems to have
had the opposite effect. It resulted
in a reunited democratic party. When
the democratic party is united, it al
ways wins. This was notably true
in the campaigns of 1876. 18S4, 1892.
"Wilson has not only a solid party
behind him. but a solid democratic
press as well. Call the roll of the
democratic newspapers of the coun
try and they will unanimously answer
'Wilson.' The Xew York Times, the
Xew York World and the Brooklyn
Eeaglc, papers that have not alwaj'S
supported the Democratic ticket, ntv
enthusiastic for Wilson. The inde
pendent press throughout the country
is also very generally for Wilson.
"In Xew York City, where I passed
four davs. I talked politics with a
great many men, and from what I
learned of sentiment among the vot
ers. Wilson will carry that state. Sen
ator O'Gorman. of Xew York, places
Wilsons plurality m that state at
100,000. Another thing that makes
Wilson's candidacy especially formid
able is the fact that he has the earnest
and active support of all of his rivals
in the convention for the nomination
tion. Every one of the defeated can
didates has either called on Wilson
personally or has sent assurances of
support.
"The nomination of Wilson and
Marshall and the assurance of a third
party, or Roosevelt ticket, has made
all heretofore republican states de
batable ground in this campaign. For
instance. Xew lersev is conceded to
I Wilson by both republicans and
I Roosevelt supporters bv 80.000. From
nnH Marsha 1
While in St. Paul I talked with a
great many prominent republicans
who told me Minnesota would cast
its electoral vote for the democratic
nominee."

When Rev. Mr. St. Clair heard this

made bv either side. However, the
Salem bunch got "next" to him in the
thud inning nad scored two runs, Al
