It was formerly ansonaced that The Statesman's great $2500 contest would 'close November" 18, but owing to tte numerous rcqueets of a majority of the candidates concerned it has been deemed, ad visable to prolong the contest two weeks. No one has yet such a decided lead that the two extra, weeks will" make any difference in the outcome of the contest. The results have been very satisfactory to The Statesman, and so far as it is concerned it would prefer to have the contest close Novem ber 18. Below are two of the many letters which have been received by the manager of the contest department, asking for a continuance of the contest. It seems that only one or two candidates took a decided interest in this affair up to three weeks ago, and those few did not get such a decided lead that a difference of a week or two will place them at any disadvantage. The Contest will Positively Close Saturday Night, December 2nd. No further continuance will be made all candidates may rest assured of that. No matter whether the entire number of candidates desire another ex tension, it will not be made, as The Statesman does not feel it would be fair to those who entered the race on the start to keep . jputtins off the closing from week, to week. Therefore it is positively asserted that this contest will close on Saturday, December 2. Get all the votes you can in the meantime.. One of the reasons for making this extension was so the candidates would have tho opportunity of seeing their country friends.' There are many friends an-i relatives living in other places who can be called upon to subscribe and who will do so if given ample time to turn in their subscriptions. Now thr.t tlie contest will closa December 2, in place of Ndvember 18, there aro sin weeks remaining, and this will give ail an equal chance to see every friend and relative in the country and get the votes Don't put off getting til the last wee your votes un bet bring in your subscriptions as soon as- possible! are not to be overlooked by any means, as every ballot counts. The house and lot valued at $1500 is going to be given to some one, and it may as well be you as a competitor. With six weeks still remaining you can get a great macy votes, and the extra time will be to your advantage. The contest department will be glad to help candidates possible. , FOLLOWING ARE TWO OF THE MANY LETTERS RECEIVED RECENTLY BY TUB CONTEST DEPARTMENT OF THEi STATESMAN: on the subscriptions. The extra vote offers in any way What a Salem Candidate Has to Say: (Four ether letters along the same lines as this one have been received ftom candidates from the first and sec ond districts, and the majority of the letters are from the leading candidates, voicing a desire to have the contest ex tended.) Salem, Or., Oct. 18, 1905.. 3r. A. Malcom, Mgr Contest Depart ment, SalcmJ Or.: My Dear Sir I 'am one cf the lead ing candidates in your contest from Salem and I desire to ask if you can not extend the I contest for two or three weeks longer than the scheduled time November 18. I have so many friends whom I desire to see and who I know will subscribe if I can only get an opportunity to see them. Many of my friends Dve in the country, and as I can not get out there every day I would appreciate it very much if you could arrange with the management of The Statesman to prolong the contest. I have talked to several of the candi date in my and other districts, and they are all anxious to have yoa ex tend it. I thirJc you could do this and be fair to all of ov each one will have the same opportunity the last two weeks. Not one . of the candidates en tered the contest, with much determina tioa until a couple of weeks ago, and as the time is so limited from now un til the end it means that we will not have t!ie opportunity of 'seeing more than half our friends, and thus lose many votes. i . : Trusting that you will be able to ar range this extension, which is the de sire of a majority of the candidates in my district, at least; I am. Tours very truly, , ; .Miss -v The Request of a Candidate from an Outside District: :-1 . (Thi3 is one letter out of many. -expressing the sams desire. It seems that all candidates are anxious for the ex tension of time in the contest. Hence the decision i to prolong it until De camber 2.) J. A. Malcom, Mgr. Contest Depart- ment, Salem, Or.: My Dear Sir I have just become thoroughly interssted in The States man's house and lot contest and it is now over half over. Other candidates In my district feel that the time for getting votes is toa limited; not giving ns an opportunity to see our friends and solicit subscriptions from them. If I get a petition signed by a majority of the candidates to have the contest extended two or three weeks would you consent to prolonging it? I think it would be fair to one and all, as we would all have the same opportunity to get votes the last two weeks. The way it is now I do not have an equal show with the , other , candidates, as many of my friends live in Portland, Engene and other cities. I fesl sure that other contestants in thia district feel the same as I do about this propo sition, and if yon can arrange to have the contest close about .December 2 or 7 I think it would be a great help to all concerned, as we would then .feel that we had an equal show. ? ! I ata working very hard now, but do not feel like going ahead until I know your, decision in the above matter. .If you want ma to I will get up a petition for an extension, which I know the majority of the candidates will sign. fcTours ,Tery truly, . ; j REMEMBER I THAT THIS CONTEST WILL POSITIVELY CLOSE SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2. !

The Isth mian canal commission to.lay made public an interesting letter written by Isham Randolph, a. member of the pres ent board . oi consulting engineers who recently made a trip to Panama, to Zina K. Carter, president of tac sani tary district of Chicago. In view of the publication of the letter by the commission, it may bo regarded as semi-official. Randolph believes the canal will be completed be-for 1915. He says when equipment is on hand and organization perfeeteJ, at least 24,000 men will-be f required in the various ' departments The source -of labor, so far, has lMn Jamaica, but they aro only about 25 per cent as efficient as -workmen as the average laborers of our country, Moreover if the foreman undertakes to gtt a fair days work out of them, theyiquit and go on to the next camp, where they are alwaj-s sure of work. This establishes-, a sort cf independence which tends toward absolute worthless ness. He remarks about $30,000,000 worth of Frenen machinery clusters up tho entire line of the canal,anJ adds that if the money spent by the French had been directed in the proper channels, it would be the mission of this oun- try to enlarge, rather than build, ttie canal. He pronounces as manufactur ed the recent statements of disagree ments among the consulting engineers and says no statcmets will be given out until the reports are completed. Union County's Disbursements At the last, term of circuit court the county officials compiled a comparative statement of the expenditures of Un ion county for the years of 1902, 1903, lot and ltH5. The figures indicate thst the exjenses for the year ending ct:ler 1st are the largest of the' four years but this .may 1m explained by tly expense of moving the court rec ords. For- tli e year of lfW! the ex penses were les than' any preceding year except for 1J2, when they totaled $51r537,772. Ia Grande 01servcr.
