DUBOIS FOR
GOVERNOR
EX-SENATOR OF IDAHO
Is VERY POPULAR
On n Democratic Anti-MOrmOn Plat
form 1t Is Believed the Well Known
Idaho Editor Would Be a Strong
Candidate for Governor.

The Lewiston Tribune says of the
prospect of ex-senator Fred T. Du-
boiS becoming a candidate for COVER
nor of Idaho:
IN tip has gone out over the state
that ex-senator Dubois will be the
nominee for governor on the demo-
cratic ticket in the fall campaign. The
tip has reached Lewiston with con-
considerable definiteness. In fact there
are local democrats who state that
they know the senator would mage
the race.
IT appears that for ZONE months
friends have been urging Senator Du-
bois to accept the nomination. and re-
Gently he has disposed or the matter
In this manner He will make no ef-
fort whatever to secure the nomina-
ton. but if the party desires to nomi-
nate him he will accept and will en-
ter into the campaign with his char
acteristic vigor toward the end of
winning a complete democratic vic
tory.
Dubois has so many loyal friends,
many democrats believe that by the
position he has assumed he cannot
now avoid a nomination. and so 1t is
safe to state that the way the cards
nov look the senator will be the nom
inee.
These democrats also state that
with Dubois at the head of the ticker
II means an anti-Mormon platform,
for il seems assured he would accept
n nomination on no other character
OF platform in view of his leadership
Of the anti-Mormon crusade.
With Dubois accepting the nominal
tion for governor, 1t is the view Of
many local democrats that the con-
gressional nomination will again go to
Attorney Reese Hattabaugh, of
Grangeville, should he desire it. Mr..
Hattabaugh was the nominee Of the
party two years ago and made a good
campaign. He is in entire harmony
with Dubois on the Mormon question.

lows.
At last nights meeting of Spencer
| Butte lodge No. 8, l. o. o. F., vote
was taken to decide whether or not
the proposed five-story brick build
ing should be erected, and the propo-
sition carried, saysothe Eugene Guard.
1t was also voted to sell the three
story brick building owned by. the
lodge on Willamette street.
This enterprise has been on foot by
the lodge for several months past, and
has been mentioned by The Guard
from time to time, but no final de-
cision was reached until at last night s
meeting The next step to be taken
will be to secure plans and specifi-
cations, and then bids for the con-
struction of the block will be received.
Work on the structure is expected
to begin early in the summer.
The new building which will be the
tallest business house in Eugene, will
be located on the northwest corner
of East Ninth and Oak streets, the
lot having been purchased by the

Fat steers, the commercial live
stock factor that has been worth
millions of dollars to Chicago and
Kansas CITY, are beginning to make
themselves heard Of in Oregon. over
5000 head of these steers are now
being fed in the Butter creek district
of central oregon and a few days ago
324 head were sold for 100000. The
recipients of these handsome profits
were r. y. Stanfield and Fred An
drews of Butter creek, says the ore
gon Daily Journal.
Two shipments have recently been
sent out from the Echo and Butter
creek alfalfa belt, where they were
fattened on that ration. The first
shipment of 324 head brought over
$62 apiece and the last shipment. 10
carloads with 25O steers in the lot,
brought about the same average
price.
There is ample evidence in every
direction that Oregon will come up to
the livestock standards required by
great packing center, and that the
packers who are establishing their
plants in Portland will not be disap-
pointed in the quality or meat they
received from Oregon ranches. Not
only will the cattle be bred up to the
middle west standard, but the sans
course will be adopt ed for hogs,
which are now the greatest cause of
anxiety among the packers.
Good Hogs and Mutton.
The corn-fed hog of the middle
west, with his enormous hams and
broad back, and a short nose that
merely protrudes from between two
rolling fat shoulders, is the packers
delight. This class of hog, 1t has
been proven, can be produced in
highest perfection by proper breed
ing and a red clover and grain ra-
tion substituted for corn.
Mutton tat is already beyond
question the finest in the United
States, will be supplied from Oregon
ranches to the Portland packing
houses A dozen great sheep breed
ing ranches throughout the state
have already brought up the Oregon
sheep average to high standard.

NATIONALIST PRESS BITTER
Latest Dreyfus Affair Arouses Fury Of
Opposition.

Paris, June 6.-Whether the at
tempt upon the life of Major Alfred
DreyfGs was only the individual act
of man believing himself to have
been an outraged patriot or had be-
hind it an incipient Nationalist plot
the Republican press is unanimous in
deploring the incident and believes 1t
injured rather than aided that cause.
Even those papers which doubted the
wisdom of burying Emile Zola in the
Pantheon think that the shooting of
Major Dreyfus consolidated the repub-
lican sentiment and they evidently de-
sire to see the incident &e out as
quickly as possible. ANY, attempt to
reopen the old Dreyfus issue at the
trial of Louis Gregori, the man who
shot the major, they point out, viii be
plainly eXtraneous.
On the other hand the fury Of the
Nationalist papers is unbounded.
L'Action Francaise fires a broadside
which recalls the INST exciting days
of Dreyfus and Boulanger At the
head of its columns this newspaper
prints a statement by Charles Maur-
ras, which, 1t is likely, the authorities
will investigate. In this article the
writer says that on Wednesday night
"a resolute patriot" visited M. Daudet
and Lieutenant Boissfieury and him,
self offered to kill Dreyfus, but
his proposal was rejected. A leading
editorial in this paper appeals to the
country to turn to the Duke of Orleans
for redress and concludes with these
words
do you desire that Zola's body be
elected from the Pantheon? Do you
desire to march Dreyfus to the execu.
tion block? IL so, invoke your king .

cure a large amount of information
concerning interpretations of the pres
ent tariff law both by the courts and
by the board of appraisers, which duty
will devolve upon a subcommittee.

ings will be held. Some time in No

HITCHCOCK GOES TO JAIL
Trial of Comedian at New York Sud
denly Adjourned.

New York, June 6.-Raymond Hitch
cock, the comedian, was committed to
the Tombs prison without bail when
his trial on charges preferred by three
little girls was suddenly adjourned for
few days.
The adjournment came when Hitch
cocks counsel conferred privately
with Justice Goff Immediately after
the first juror had been selected. At
the conclusion of the conference JUS
tice Goff announced that in view of
what the attorney had told him he
would adjourn the case for few days
and that in the meantime Hitchcock
would be remanded to the Tombs
prison without bail.
Mr.. Hitchcock's counsel, Mr.. Steuer,
said he had appealed to Justice Goff
to adjourn the case because he had
just been retained by Hitchcock and
was not familiar with the case and
was therefore unable to go on with 1t
iptelligently. Mr.. Steuer said that
Justice Goff committed Hitchcock ON
his own accord and without any sug-
gestion from him or the assistant dis
trict attorney.

ident, however. will take with him An
assortment of arms which he will re-
quire in the variety Of hunting con-
