The Democrats having put candi dates out lor the office of justice of the supreme court, it makes a rather queer situation It is pointed out that if no others are named there is a pos sibility of voters writing in the names of some of the Kcpiiblican candidates, and this nin&cs them the nominees of both Republicans and Pcuiocrnts, as they would bo Bcmocratic candidates if the names of Democrats were not written in. To avoid any trouble over this condition it is suggested by Mr. Bert Honey, chairman of the sfatc Democratic committee, thnt the names of two Democrats be written iu. It is stated that arrangements have bcea made by which the Democratic vot rs will be asked to write in tho names of W. T. Slater, of this city, ami Thomas H. Crawford, of La Cirande, These two gentlemen, it is stated. hiLve consented to tho arrangenu.it, and will qualify and serve if elected. No doubt enough Democrats will write in these names to nominate them, and thus fill out the ticket. Tomorrow at 5 o'clock the time for filing petitions ends, and it appears most of the candidates have at least their declarations in, as the supply is falling off. Today there were only two. K. K. Blanchn'd filed for representative from Josophino county ami is a Republican. Charles E. Harrow, Republican, filoi for the nomination for representative from Coos county. All the Democratic candidates for governor- have tiled their petitions ex cept Cobb, and he is only a pawn up for political purposes and to injure some of the other candidates Tho promoters of tho scheme will discover before the primaries, or if not, before the election is over, that they hitve thrown a boomerang.
