Otherwise Will Be Bench Manager Cincinnati, Ohio, July 21. Christy Mathewson, new manager of the Beds, way or muy uul pitch for his team. It ell depends upon how he feels and what bis other pitchers do. "That's the way Matty sized it up on liis arrival here today, "I haven't fully determined whether or not I will pitch for the Beds," lie isaid. "I first must see what the other pitchers are capable of doing. If I think my work would add strength to the pitching staff, I will pitch occasion ally. Otherwise I will bo a bench man ager." . . Mathewsou is troubled with a lame aide and it is likely that if lie does pitch, he will not do so soon. However, the Beds at present, including Matty, have only six pitchers and have six straight double headers to play on their eastern trip, which starts Tuesday. Matty, Outfielder Rousch and Infield er Bill McKechnio, all of whom arrived together, probably will sign Cincinnati contracts by noon and Matty will take charge of the team in today's game with the I'liiilica.

Thomson, yesterday. State . House News ' A former resident of Salem is in cluded in the list of incorporators as sociated with a project for boring for oil near McMinnville. Articles of in corporation were filed with the corpo ration commissioner yesterday. The incorporators are O. W. Evans, E. E. Gouchcr, A. C. McKinnon, Frank Holmes, W. T. Macy, ti. S. Wright, O. Burleson, Elijah Corbet t, ... O. New man, II. C. Patty, C. 11. Mathis, Geo. W. Bridewell. The company is capi talized for $25,000. Articles of incorporation have been filed by tiie La Grande Gas company, which proposes to use sawdust, gar bage and other materials fur the mak ing of gas. The incorporators are Georgo K. Good, Dr. F. T. Holmes and M. K. Hall, and the capitalization is $125,000. The Fletcher Investment company of Portland has filed notice of disso lution with, the corporation depart ment. btate r.ngiueer Lewis has issued a permit to the city of Bamlon for the storage of water in connection with Its new system of water works, for which the city has voted to bond for $40,UU0. In answer to an inquiry Attorney General Brown states that a railroad or other carrier cannot deliver alcohol to a druggist without the signing of the affidavit required by law. The attorney general holds the affidavit to be necessary, although the limita tion on quantity in receiving ethyl al cohol is removed in the caso of drug gists. A somewhat exceptional showing in the way of preparedness is shown by the teachers of Sherman county in the report of Countv Superintendent Fa gnn, just filed with State Superintend ent Churchill. The icport show that. u per cent of the teachers employed in that county are graduates of nor nial schools, colleges or universities. Some of the remaining 24 per cent have had college work but have not yet been graduated. Superintendent Churchill attributes this condition principally to the close co-operation existing between the district school boards and the couuty superintendent. Although the former tmploy the teach ers, most of the directors depend upon tho county superintendent to assist them in finding suitati-.e teachers. The salaries offered are attractive, the av eratre in the one room county school being $70 a month, and Superintend ent iagan nas little difficulty in find ing well trained teachers. That the school directors of Sherman county be lieve in having long terms of school is indicated by the fact that they have practically eliminated the school terms of six and seven moi.ths. Only two districts in the county bad less than eight months of school last year, one having six and the other seven months while the remaining district bad terms of nine months. Articles of incorporation have been filed Gn the corporation department by the Central Oregm Co-operative Telephone company of Redmond, and by the Klooch Tillicum society of Free-moot. A committee from the board of re gents of the state normal . school is here today. They are E. E. Bragg, postmaster at 1m' Grande, W. O. Bry ant, an attoruey'iat Morrow, and II. G. Starkweather of Milwaukie.

The general naval bill directing immediate construc tion of four dreadnnughts and four but tle cruisers o fthe most modern type, came up for the senate's final approval today. With the apportionate number of scout cruisers, destroyers, submarines and aircraft this program will cost for the first year $315,000,000. At the end of three years, the time set for completing the program, the United states will have added 157 war vessels of all types and will have in the opinion of the united states experts, a nnvv atinprinr in nnv nthpi1 nvppnt Knar. land. The cost of the three year pro- gram, will be $588,180,57ti for vessels alone. The terms cf the senate bill, I however, have yet to meet the approval of tho house. Senator Swanson, in charge of the measure, expecting opposition in ; the house, has conducted a quiet campaign organizing the "big navy forces" Mir several days. He predicted today that although there will be a warm congest, the house finally would adopt a measure similar to the senate. In addition to the naval bill program, the bill approves a government owned armor plate plant, and the equipment of four navy yards I'uget Sound, Boston, Philadelphia and Norfolk for the con struction of battle ships. While some of these warships are to be built in government yards, it is ex pected that the armor plate plant will not be finished in time to furnish ma terial for any of the ships provided for in the present bill. The bill also pro' videB that line-officers of tho navy hereafter shall be promoted by competi tion and selection rather than by senior ity, and for many re organizations with in the navy department. ine largest previous naval bill was Me., a life prohibitionists, was present for $260,000,000, by Great Britain ifl ed as a candidate by George G.

New York, July 21, While republi can leaders threshed out their campaign plans today in conferences, Democratic Campaign Manager McCormick issued his first set of figures. It was a carefully compiled record of progressive votes cast four years ago, and an estimate which it was said was based on conservative information showing that Wilson would be able to win re-election if he only succeeded in drawing 25 per cent of the progressive strength. The democrats claim he will be able to command a much larger per centage than this but 25 per cent will be enough to elect, according to Mc Cormick, ' "Wilson's vote will nrohnhlv he lnrir. ! er tnuu this," Mccormick said. A ereat manv democrats voted for Roose- cent; Illinois, Z0 per cent; New Jcr- sey, 12 per cent; Nebraska, 13 per cent; Minnesota, 13 per cent; Muine, 26 per cent; West Virginia, 27 per cent; Kan sas, 2(i per cent; Massachusetts, 45 per cent; California, two per cent, anu North Dakota, 34 per cent. Republican Nutional Chairman Will cox met with the national campaign committee through the greater part of the day. Alvah H. Martin, national committeeman from Virginia, reported on general senatorial prospects and the senatorial campaign committee of five members, was in a special meeting. Sen ator McCunibcr, of North Dakota, was especially active in this conference, in urging a strenuous campaign in his home state. Ho pleaded that Hughes make one or two addresses there on his trnns-contincntal trip. One of the troubles which has devel oped in the campaign committees it was understood, comes out of the fact that every member wants especial attention paid in the campnign to his own par ticular neck of the woods and is un willing to concede special concentration elsewhere unless Hughes, or some other "big campaigner" tills the ground in his homo state, . - i (Continued from Page, 1.)
