How j Chaage Came over the
Face Of John HanSon:

Our town on Tuesday was full OF dele
gates on their way to the Parkersburg
Convention. From what we can learn,
the strength OF Wetzel is pretty evenly
divided between Wilson and Good. The
excitement is pretty high, and the two
factions are very bitter and uncomprom'
ising. We apprehend there will be a
lively time in the Convention. We
were down at the wharf when the Andes
arrived at this place, Tuesday, ut 1880
P. n, and heard Mart 0bers make
a speech IN favor Of Aaron Morgan and
free navigation, and several other things.
Mart. was spirituously excited and happy,
and was the fiity.ninth delegate to climb
the plank. Hans. Good was on board,
and when someIof the crowd, yelled for
Good, Hans. Hooked This Batistaetion; but
when a full, loud shout arose for Ben.
Wilson, the smile faded from his face,
while his opinion, and appreciation Of
that crowd Fssdepicted thereon.

passed Seattle in coming here apparently en-
dorsed by the people and press Here his
deception and rascality were unearthed, and
timely wsrning given our Oregon neighbors,

Of their own and they now have 1t. The
latest reference to the imposter is found In
the Democrat Of the Sd. which says that
some two weeks since Jacobs gave under the
