JOHNS ENTERS THE RACE.

Charles a. Johns, Of Baker City,
announces his candidacy for the Office
Of Governor in the following circular
letter
Subject to the terms and conditions
Of the primary law, am and will be a
candidate for governor Oh the Re
publican ticket.
1T is not a question Of salary.
There are many things far more
valuable than gold. and to my mind
the Office Of Governor Of the state Of
Oregon is one Of them.
"Am going to make an honorable
effort to secure that position and want
all my friends throughout the state 10
assist me, and appeal TO them for
support. Any promise or pledge will
be made direct to the people; no other
promise or pledge will be made.
"Am not and will not be or become
a candidate Of any faction, any man,
or combination Of men. Will either
be nominated or defeated on my
merits, and will not in the least com
promise my official integrity. Will
stand by this, even though it should
cost me the nomination My nomi-
nation would not mean the success or
defeat Of any element Of the Re-
publican party. 1 want to see the
party harmonized and united and the
whole ticket elected, and if nominated
and elected will endeavor to accom-
plish that end and give the state
clean, honest, economical, business,
republican administration.
mo matter what may be the result,
l pledge my hearty support to the
ticket"

Wisconsin newspapers are all send
ing out 2s page supplements. Under
new statute, the laws enacted at
each session Of the Legislature are
published in every paper in the state
whose publisher is willing to perform
that service for 500. Few decline and
thus there goes a copy of the session
laws into nearly every home. The
Wisconsin plan certainly makes
ignorance Of the law as inexcusable
morally as NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Advices from Washington indicate
that the President is in no hurry to
ill the vacant District Judgeship in
Oregon. Both I. A. Mcbride and
r. S. Bean have failed to land the
prize, and @. +. Wolverton now seems
to be the leading candidate. Senator
Fulton's trip to the National Capitol
TO urge the filling Of the vacancy
proved fruitless, aud it looks as
though there would be no Federal ap-
pointments In Oregon until after
Congress assemblies in December.
Aud maybe not then.

Chairman Baker requests the OBsER-
YER to announce to the Republicans of

readiness to see that everybody is
made comfortable. There will be no
reservations for Portland people, and
all from the interior will be seated.
The conference will convene next
Thursday morning, at 10 O'Clock.

Now, that the Fair is nearing an
end, the people living along the line
of the Yamhill division of the Southern
Pacific railroad will probably ask the
company to place the daily passenger
train on the old schedule. It is not
known what, if any, changes are con-
templated by the company, but it is
believed that the management will
show the same willingness to comply
with the wishes of the patrons Of the
road as it has always exhibited in the
past. The abandonment of the present
track between Whiteson and Lafay-
ette, and the operation of trains over
the st. Joe cutoff may effect a slight
change in the running time, but it is
believed that this difference will not
be sufficient TO effect material change
in the time between Dallas and Port
land. The company has made many
substantial Improvements on the
roadbed Of the Yamhill division this
summer, and the Dallas train is
rapidly growing in favor with the
travelling public. With daily service
over the ST. Joe cutoff, by way of Nc
Minnville, travel between the west
side towns will increase this patronage
to marked extent and will justify
the company in giving a still better
service.

SCHOOL BOARD
WANT BRIDGE
OVER TRACKS

Because his son, Isaac Prather,
was transferred from the Lincoln
school to the Franklin school, Mr..
Prather, who lives at E512 River
side avenue, declared to the city
school board last night that he will
take his boy out of the city schools
unless he is transferred back to
the Lincoln.
Mr.. Prather's complaint comes
from the fact that his little boy
has to go farther to school and be-
cause he has to cross the railroad
tracks at Sprague and Division
streets. j. M. Raught. one Of the
members of the school board,
agreed with Mr.. Prather and stated
that he would take his son out of
school if he had to cross such a
dangerous place.
The board declined to interfere
and the matter was referred to
Superintendent Tormey.
Secretary e. A. Thomas was in
structed to confer with Superin-
tendent Beamer of the Northern Pa
cific to see if the railroad company
would consider the erection of a
footbridge over the tracks at Divis-
ion street and Sprague avenue.

European Trade Methods.

Again is Europe learning a business lesson from the
Yankees.
Europe does business on the slow pay plan Credit is
almost universal and where the American merchant
manufacturer wants his money in 80 sixty days, the
German English manufacturer waits six months or a
year.
In retail trade the credit system is marked
and many open until the creditor dies and his
estate is settled
In Europe it is possible for the heir to estate live
for years his expectations although it may be many
years before he into his Inheritance.
Recently a famous peer found that he owed his pou-
erer the staggering sum of $4,000.
No less authority than the London Express asserts
