On the Republican side, State Treasurer Sig Unander and Sec retary of State Mark Hatfield have both been mentioned as possible candidates. Must Appoint Successor Holmes said that should either of the two Republicans win their party'3 nomination and then go on to win in the general elec tion, they would be required by law to appoint a successor of the same party. Other state-wide offices in the balance will be that of Superin tendent of Public Instruction Rex Putnam and Labor Commis sioner Norman Nilsen. Both have indicated they will be candidates to succeed themselves. The two justices running will be Randall B. Kester, a recent appointee of Gov. Holmes, and George Rossman, a court veteran. Involved in the congressional races will be Walter Norblad, Stayton Republican, 1st Dis trict; Al Ullman, Baker Demo crat, 2nd District; Edith Green, Portland Democrat, 3rd District; and Charles O. Porter, Eugene Democrat, 4th District. Senate Seats Up for Grabs Fifteen of the 30 seats in the Oregon Senate will also be de cided in next year's elections. Twelve of them now belong to Republicans and three to Demo crats. This puts Democrats In the position of having to reelect their three men and capture only one Republican seat to win con trol of the Senate for the first time since 1878. The Senate this year was split evenly between Republicans and Democrats. Democrats now control the House of Representatives for the first time since 1937 by a 36 to 24 margin and all seats will be at stake next year. Among candidates for presi dent of the Senate are expected to be Walter Pearson, Portland Democrat and Warren Gill, Labanon Republican. Gill faces an election next year with five sessions under his belt, but Pearson will be a holdover. The two men battled for the Senate presidency during the regular 1957 session, with senators settling on Boyd Over hulse, Madras Democrat, to break the deadlock.

CHAPMAN Hornbrook Fifteen inter ested or affected parties from this area attended the meeting in the supervisor's chambers in the courthouse at Yreka Tuesday, Dec. 10. The purpose of the meet ing was to discuss the converting of the present two-lane limited freeway to a four, lane full free way between Henley lane and the Oregon state line on High way.,99 in Siskiyou county. H?S. Miles, Redding, district engineer of the California di vision of highways, presided at the meeting. He introduced Glen Bacon, who attended as a repre sentative of the bureau of public roads, and O. W. Perry, planning engineer from Sacramento. F. S. Saunders of Redding, as sistant district engineer, ex plained the proposed project. It is being planned on the basis of a four-lane full freeway to inter state standards with a 60-foot width of median between oppos ing lanes of traffic and a basic right of way width of 184 feet. It is approximately 6.7 miles in length sfth will follow the pres ent alignment for the entire proj ect. From Henley lane to Bailey hill it is planned to acquire the necessary additional right-of-way to the west of the existing high way, and from Bailey hill to the state line the present plan is to acquire it to the east. Initial Cost The initial cost of converting to the four-lane road is estimat ed at $6,400,000 for tfce 6.7 miles, Saunders stated. Miles called for questions and discussions on the project from those attending. Earl Swift, su pervising plant quarantine in spector for the California bureau of plant quarantine, questioned whether there would be an ac cess road into Hornbrook at the present Ditch creek road. Miles replied tfrat the highway depart ment has under study at this time interchanges to separate by overhead crossings or under passes the crossroads at four dif ferent points, one of which was the Ditch creek road. The other points are at Henley lane, Bailey Hill road, and Hilt road. H. H. Chapman, owner of the Jlornbrook Water company stat ed that the acquiring of addition al right-of-way to the west of tiie existing highway would cut tiwough the middle of his reser voir and pipeline, whereas an addition to the east would avoid this. It will be investigated by the (ughway department whether the widening at this point could rot be done to the east instead. The question was brought up by Robert Trnca of Hilt as to why this particular section of high way was under eonsideration now when it appears other stret,ches of highway were more urgely needed. Several Years Miles pointed out that there would be no actual construction on the proposed road for several yearthat atraffic study had been made showing that a wid ening of this stretch would be vitally necessary in the future. He reiterated his opening state ment fhat the purpose of this meeting was '"simply to nail down the location at the state line, so that when Oregon goes tead with their future road building, California will be pre pared to meet them at the state line." The question of the open range policy on the freeway was brought up by L. L. Lichens of Yreka. He recalled that several bad acidents have been caused in the past by stock grazing along " a MUNICIPAL COURT Lester Clifton Sproul, defective equipment. S2.50.
