DROWNING men catch at straws.
The radicals of Dallas showed the
cloven foot too soon. The people see
their game, and will act accordingly,
Many who once thought of voting u
wicked ticket, including Mayor Long,
have decidedly changed their inten-
tons after seeing how the game was
being played to gull democrats. The
vote of Tuesday will show how the
people feel on the subject.

Secretary Of the Treasury did not, d
courae, surprise the public. Its a con

yesterday speaks Of him as follows:
Gen. Bristow Is q lawyer Of fine ability
and q man Of unimpeachable character
Il Is no dlsparagement to say that he has
more brains than anyone who has filled
that office since 1t was vacated by Mr

MAP YouR FARM.-The Fsrmers'
Union suggests that every farmer should
have . complete map Of his farm, with
each field, pasture and wood lot, together
with ali the fences, roads and bitches
plainly drawn, and either numbered OF
named, 80 they can be readily designated.
Few farmers can appreciate the real value
Of one until they have tried the expert
ment, for with map ol the farm before
you, you can direct your wofkmen 10 any
part Of 1t without the possibility Of Their
making o mistake. You can plan i'm
.proyemGnts and estimate their cost at
your leisure, instead Of spending hall q
day Of your valuable time in surveying
the land ITSELF Any person with q little
ingenuity and patience, can draw q mSp
Of his farm. Il should be about two feet

Oregon Election:

election occurred to-day. Grover, Demo.

small plurality. The Independent candi.
dates for Judges Of the Supreme Court
are elected beyond doubt. The Inde.

Multuomah county. It is impossible to
obtain anything further tonight.
Ban FRANCISCO, June 2-The friends
OF Williams in Oregon claim his election
TO Congress as certain. The resnlton the
State tioketwill not be known Tor several
days. Old party lines were never more
complete In Oregon than yesterday.
PORTLAND, May 2.-Returns come In
slowly. Tallman, Republican, Tor Cover
nor, carries Multramah by about 800 ma.
jority, Marion by $50, and Zlmhill By Q
small mejoritR. CSmpb6ll, Independent
candidate, has probably carried Douglass
by $50 majority over both the other can
didates. he carries Polk by 100 majority,
and Lowe BY, about 100. Grover, Demo.
cratic candidate, has much lighter vote
than was anticipated. He carries Linn BY
o reduced party vote, and his vote every
where Is behind his party. The contest
for Congressman does not vary much from
the vote for Governor, and Davenport In
dependent fruns behind Campbell. Tall

The usual dullneas prevailed during
the last week. There is some disposition
to speculate in pig iron, but the demand
for legitimate purposes continues light,
and prices remain rather unsettled. The
poverty Of railroad companies induces
them to purchase wheels Of the cheapest
order, and Car wheel makers are seeking
only the lowest grade metals, which are
In abundant supply, It Is to be hoped
the recovery from the present depressed
condition may begin soon, and st least
establish reliable and uniform quotations.
