the fire, which swept through the

, lal race each profess confidence OF
victory. Johnson expects to gain a
plurality in the southern part of the
state and will maintain a lead in
the central and northern sections.
Johnson's headquarters concede
$4,000 votes to curry, 10000 to
Anderson, 10000 to Stanton and
10000 to Ellery. The estimates
are based on a total vote of 225,-
600, which is 70 per cent of the
registration of republican voters.
Curry bases claims of victory on
his strength in San Francisco and
the machine he has built up in
the state. Tom Keough, Curry's
manager, claims the secretary of
state will reach Tehachapi pass
with a majority of 10000 and will
carry San Francisco by 10000.
Anderson, candidate of the reg
ular republican organization, hopes
to draw his majority from the stall
wart vote. This will offset the
vote of the Lincoln Roosevelt league
which is placed behind Johnson.
Ellery claims he will be elected
by a plurality of 5000.
Los ANGELES, Cal, August Is.
Stanton claims that Los Angeles
county will give him a majority of

DOUBLE MURDER
AT SILETZ
Robert Felix Shoots Martha
Metcalf and John Spencer,
Then Commits Suicide.

Last Saturday at about noon news
came from Siletz that Robert Felix
had shot Martha Metcalf and John
Spencer. Sheriff Ross and Deputy
Sheriff McElwain Immediately start
ed for the Agency keeping a sharp
lookout enroute for the murderer
who was reported coming this way.
Soon after they had started, word
came that Felix had committed
suicide.
The shooting occurred at John
Spencer's place just this side of the
Agency. 1t seems that Mrs. Met
calf, who is divorced from her hus-
band, has been living with Felix,
also that Spencer was infatuated
with her. Felix and the Metcalf
woman were at Spencer's place and
when Felix wanted to go home she
refused to go with him, saying she
was going to remain at Spencers.
Spencer accordingly went to taking
her things out of the wagon, paying
no heed to Felix's commands to
leave them alone. Thus infuriated
Felix whipped out his gun and shot
Spencer in the forehead killing him
instantly. At this Mrs. Metcalf
turned on Felix demanding to know
why he shot man for nothing,
whereupon he shot her twice the
second shot piercing her heart. He
then turned his gun on Mrs. Spencer
but she begged so strongly for her
life that he let her go, and come on
over to his home on this side of the
river. Immediately that he left,
Mrs. Spencer fastened to the
Agency and notified the authorities
who started Immediately for the
scene of the crime. On taking up
Felix's trail and following him to
his home, they found him dead on
the bed, having placed the muzzle
of his gun in his mouth and pulled
the trigger.
