Election Ia Oregon.

Portland, May 9l.-The biennial cleo
tlon in Oregon, which will occur next
Monday, promises to be the most ex-
citing In the history OF the state The
Democrats have made their campaign
almost entirely on state issues. while
the Republicans have laid great stress
on national expansion and the .reten-
ton OF the island possessions. The fac
tlonal fight among Republicans OF Multi
nomah county, n Republican strong
hold. will undoubtedly greatly reduce
the Republican majority in the state,
II indeed Il does not wipe II out en-
tirely as far as the head OF the ticket
Is concerned.
The Democrats have little hope Of
electing their ticket with the exception
Of Geo. H. Chamberlain for governor.
They claim that his personal popular
ity. coupled with the Republican dis
affection, viii certainly land their can
didate IN the governors chair
The Republicans, however. say that
reports Of dlsaffection IN the party are
exaggerated and that there Is no doubt
Of election Of w. j. Furnish as COVER
nor. They admit that there will be
some loss on the head OF the ticket In
Mutnomah county but they rely on the
normal Republican majority OF more
than 10000 In the state. to pull their
candidate through.

HORSE OWNERS PROTEST.
Want Tax on Oats and Maise Re-
moved by Government,

London, May 3l.-A deputation repre-
senting the owners OF half million
horses interviewed the chancellor Of the
excheQuer, Sir Michael Hicks Beach to-
day and strongly protested against the
tax on oats and maize, The chancellor
informed them that 1t was impossible
to give up the general tax on grain, or
especially exempt outs or maize and
there was a greater reason, he pointed
out, for the exemption OF horse feed
than there was to exempt wheat or 9th
er grains used by humans. If the al
legged Increase in the cost Of horses and
food was due to the war with the eS-
pected peace there would be a fall in
prices considerably greater than the
amount Of duty Meanwhile, horse
owners could make the public pay the
duty as ought to be the case. In his
opinion. the present high prices es-
pecially or maize, were temporary ana
were due to the short harvest in Ameri-
ca last year.
