Nevertheless we are meet ing war crisis. one after anotlier, and our thought« are centered on how noon our American boy» will be In the trench«*» and h<*w soon anoth er call for troop» will be made, we mint atop long enough to dlacuna who will be the proper num to fill our oflicea from January I next.

Our congressional delegation, now serving us, all win anxious tn further our interests in the war game and aland behind the presi dent in all necemarv measures. While it is true that one or two of our own reprcscntaliv«*» have not l>een very enthusiastic in support of the president, their votes have geneially l<cen right. We might do better to replace some of them with new men and we might do worse. We demand that each of them, whether our present member» of congress are retained in whole or in part, or shall be replaced by new men. shall drop partiaaniNn for the time being and become AMERICANS at leaat until we have won the war. The winning of the war is our one central purpose and no man should be selected for either house of con gress who. will not submit every other interest to thia one great puepose. Tentative candidates al the pres ent time for the U. S. senate are K. N. Stanfield, of Stanfield and Senator McNary, present incumbent of Salem, republicans and Will R. King, democrat. We shall nave more to say concerning these candi dates later on. For governor, the present incum bent. James Withycombe asks to be reelected, Gu» Moser, of multnomah county and » prominent member of the last state senate, and present secretary of state. Hen Olcott, all republicans, are likely to contest for the nomination. On the democratic mde. Milton A. Miller, ’present col lector of internal revenue is men- tianed There is a general desire throughout the state that Judgr Bennett, of The Dalles, shall stand for the nomination. The judge does not indicate whether he will be a candidate or not. If nominated.

In county affairs, several candi dacies have ticen mentioned Judge McKnighl and Commissioner Irvine will probably be candidates to suc ceed themselves. Both gentlemen will be opposed by a certain element in the county, because they have tieen too economical. Yet the eco nomy they have enforced has tieen very satisfactory to the people. They have given Unn county the lowest tax levy in the state 11.2 mills, with the county out of debt, is not a matter to be ashamed of and is most satisfactory to the peo- pin in rhese Liberty Bond and Red Cross days. For county clerk. R M. Russell, present incumbent, is the only name we have heard mentioned. As his service during the past four years has been absolutely satisfactory, his opposing candidate will have a hard row to hoe. For sheriff, with D. H. Bodine's retirement, the field is open. Three gentlenten will seek the nomination on the republican ticket. They are J. R Frum, present chief deputy, R E Warner, of Crawfordsville and C. M Kendall are announced candi dates. While Mr. Frum is a young man. he is very efficient and his battle with the escaped l»ad man from the penitentiary at Shedd, places him in a very favorable light before the people.
