in a free or-all fight, the Democrats are
prepared to take advantage of the situa-
ton by nominating their strongest man,
and do their utmost to elect him. They
will count upon heavy Republican vote
for their candidate, if an undesirable gets
away with the Republican nomination.
Some Belligerents.
There are some belligerents in the
Republican camp who insist on a fight
ever the state ticket, whatever may be
done about the Senatorship, and they
are doing their utmost to get Lieutenant
Governor Thomas Frankson into the
gubernatorial race. They insist that he
will become candidate. Frankson is
receiving some boosts from the state
rarers, too. The belligerents compose
but small faction of the Republican
party, however.
In connection with Frankson's can
didacy for the gubernatorial nomination,
Bob Dunn in his Princeton Union offers
some friendly advice and free at that
which Frankson might do well to consider
and ponder over. The Senator tells
Franskon to stop, look and listen" and
weigh matters very carefully before he
enters the race for Governor next year,
because as he puts it, if Governor Burn
quist, C. A. Lindbergh and Frankson
be the candidates, the outcome would
be extremely doubtful.
Fred E. Wheaton Of Minneapolis,
chairman of the Democratic state central
COMMITTEES, looks like the best bet for the
Democratic gubernatorial nomination.
There are Democrats who still talk of
Judge Charles w. Stanton Of Bemidji,
but the judges son, Mayne, editor Of
the Bemidji Sentinel, who was in St.
Paul the other day, said that his father
has no ambition to be governor, that he
is satisfied with his present position as
district Judge. and that should he seek
promotion, it would be along judicial
lines. The tide Of Democratic favor
seems to be swinging steadily toward
Wheaton.
In the 9Th Congressional district
Senator Campbell Of Minneapolis has
SHE'D his castor into the ring for Con-
gressional honors. Now that the daily
papers have given it out that Ernest
Lundeen is politically dead, because he
had the tenacity to do what Is per cent
of his cen tit tents asked him to do,
would be -statesmen are grooming them
selves for the job. Campbell is one OF
them and he already has called down
on his head the wrath Of 81. G. Hotaling
of Mapleton because Of his address to
the strikers in which he congratulated
them, because they had conducted Them
selves SO peacefully.
Hotaling wants to know if this is the
same Campbell who has been making
loyalty sreecaes, and ask what he re-.
CARDS as peaceful, and says that any man
who would defend such action as peace
ful'' must want labor votes more than
he wants law and order. Hotaing then
wants to know what would be gained by
electing Campbell to Congress over
Lundeen. There ase hundred and even
thousands in Minneapolis who agree
with Hotaling and Senator Campbell

Puts Up Fine Hay Crop.

A. Henriksen, of Cecil, was a pleas
ant caller at this office while in town
Friday last. Mr.. Henriksen pur-
chased the w. B. Ewing place below
Cecil last Spring. and has recently
finished putting up his hay crop,
which measures 800 tons Of alfalfa
and he has been travelling over por-
tions of Eastern Oregon to pick up
some cattle for feeders. Having lust
returned from this trip he is full of
information concerning stock condi-
tions on the outside. Mr.. Henriksen
found that cattle are being disposed
OF In very large numbers and sent to
the markets because of a scarcity of
hay and owners are not disposed to
pay the price being demanded. 1t is
the opinion of the gentleman that
these people are making grave mis-
take, as the price of hay at this time
Is not out of proportion to the price
being received for cattle and they
should manage to keep their stock
cattle for the needs of the immediate
future. Mr.. Henriksen reports feed
as being fine on his place in the
and all stock should win

Hurt by Vicious Bull.

John Wightman was very seriously
Injured late last Thursday evening by
being attacked by a vicious Jersey
bull at the Alfalfa Lawn Dairy ranch
below Heppner. The animal took
Mr.. Wightman by surprise, coming
upon him from behind and knocking
him down. Mr.. Wightman received
very severe injuries. his thigh geing
gored, his spine injured just below
the neck, and the skin and flesh torn
from portions of his face. A brother
near by rushed to Johns assistance
and no doubt was the means of saw
ing his life from the infuriated ami
NAL 1t took some hard work to force
the bull away as he seemed determin-
ed to finish the job he had started.
Or. Winnard was Immediately called
to administer to the injured man, and
Mr.. Wightman is now reported out of
danger and improving rapidly.
