o Candidates
o Labor Bill
o Holman Saving
' By A. L. LINDBECK
SALEM. With the near approach
of the May primaries candidates for
state jobs are beginning to blossom
out like dandelions on a spring
lawn.
Of the three high-up state officials
about whose political intentions there
has been so much speculation dur
ing the past few months uncertainty
now enshrouds only one State
Treasurer Holman. While Holman
himself is still non-committal there
is a strong suspicion that he will yet
enter the race for the republican
nomination for governor. At least it
is known that much pressure is be
ing brought to bear to persuade him
to make the race by prominent party
leaders who believe that in him alone
is there any chance for a republican
victory in Oregon next fall.
During the past week two new
gubenatorial aspirants made their
debut in the primary arena. Charles
L. Paine, Eugene real estate dealer
who two years ago aspired to be Re
publican national committeeman, has
anounced that he would this year try
for the governorship. At the same
time Dr. Ralph H. Erwin, Multno
mah county coroner, told the world
that he proposes to go out after the
Democratic nomination.
M. S. Shrock, Milwaukie feed man
ufacturer, who several weeks ago
announced himself as a candidate
for the Republican nomination for
governor this week filed his formal
declaration with the state depart
ment and is definitely in the race
on a platform that calls for arbitra
tion of labor disputes.
The surprise move of the wppk
was made by Clarence F. Hyde, Eu
gene realtor, who filed as a candi
date for the Democratic nomination
for Labor Commissioner. Hyde who
has served three terms as state rep
resentative trom Lane county had
been prominently mentioned as a
possible candidate for Congress from
the first district but crossed the
prognosticators up when he filed for
the labor post.
Walter Norblad, youthful -Astoria
attorney who has had four years ex
perience in the state legislature now
has his eye on Washington and has
been doing some checking up on
his prospects with a view to seeking
the Republican nomination for Uni
ted States senator.
So far only one candidate has ap
peared for the United States senate
short term from November 8 to
January 3. Colonel Robert A. Mil
ler, prominent Portland democrat,
has announced his intention to seek
that honor.
Five hundred and eighty-four
tardy motorists who failed to heed
the warning to do their license shop
ping by the first of the year were
arrested by state police during Jan
uary. In addition to being required
to buy their new plates these de
linquents also contributed $1060 in
fines to the public exchequer, rec
ords of the state police bureau re
veal.
A new organization which is said
to be opposed to the Townsend third
party idea was launched in Oregon
this week with the filing of articles
of incorporation; The organization is
known as -the Associated National
Recovery clubs of Oregon. Incorpor
ators include E. C. Ahlstrom and W,
T. Brooner of Lakeview and F. M.
Mortensen of Klamath Falls.
Uregons new lSMo road map is
now ready for distribution. The new
map contains much more informa
tion of value to tourists than its
predecessors. Among this informa
tion is the location and acreage of
game refuges and an extension of
the border of the map to show high
way connections in adjoining states,
District attorneys of the ten coun
ties in which labor racketeeres are
Gazette Times, , Heppner,
under indictment conferred here
with Governor Martin Saturday
morning. As a result of this confer
ence the governor has decided to ap
point a special legal assistant to the
state police department whose ser
vices will be available to the district
attorneys in preparing and trying the
labor cases. The governor made it
plain that the states' attorney would
in no wise supplant the county of
ficials but would cooperate with
them in coordinating the over-lapping
phases of the terrorist charges
which have been brought against
a number of alleged "goons." Among
the district attorneys attending the
conference with the governor were
G. Russell Morgan of Washington
county; Bruce Spaulding of Polk
county; L. L. Ray of Lane county;
John Baker of Hood River county;
T. Leland Brown of Wasco county;
Fred A. Miller of Clackamas county;
Earl A. Nott of Yamhill county; J.
K. Weatherford, Jr., of Linn county,
and Lyle J. Page of Marion county.
There are 30,000 dairy farmers in
Oregon according to J. D. Mickle,
dairy an dfood commissioner. Seventy-five
processing plants handle
dairy products valued at more than
$5,000,000 annually, Mickle said; 102
butter plants with an annual pro
duction of $30,000,000; 50 cheese fac
tories with annual payrolls aggre
gating $375,000.
When Mrs. Lorah Spaulding of
Salem was appointed by the Marion
county court to succeed her hus
band, the late Charles K. Spaulding,
as a member of the state senate she
became the fourth woman ever to
be elevated to membership in that
body. Mrs. Spaulding, however, will
not have a chance to see active ser
vice in the legislature unless the
lawmakers are convened in special
session before next January since she
has agreed not be become a candi
date for re-election. In appointing
the widow of a deceased member
of the legislature to fill the vacant
seat the Marion county court act
ed under a precedent established in
1931 when Mrs. Lotta Smith of Sa
lem was appointed to succeed her
husband, the late W. Carlton Smith,
former state representative.
