Shot in the Back.
MOCCASIN.

One day last week Johnnie Lea
picked up discarded target cartridge
his father had thrown away after hav-
ing tried several times to discharge it,
and took it home with him. Tuesday,
when his mother was away from home,
he put the cartridge in his fathers
rife and went to the door to see if he
could discharge it. Willie Holmes,
son of Mr.. Holmes of the Republican,
was with him and followed to the door,
going out the screen door, under the
gun and coming up in front of it just
as Johnnie dropped the muzzle down
and pulled the trigger. Of course it
went off that time! There was boy
infront of it! The bullet entered
Willie's back, near the spine, and just
below the point of the hip bone,
struck that, and glanced downwards,
making painful but not serious
wound Mr.. and Mrs. Lea feel as bad
as possible, over the accident, but
were in no way to blame for it as
neither knew Johnnie had the discard
ed cartridge and the others were out
of his reach Waup0c0 Post

On our way to Medford last week
Mr.. Norton, of the Marshfeld Times,
informed US that we should have to
eat Ring crow before we returned
home. However the results of the
convention proved to Mr.. Norton that
he was mistaken. Great minds often
change their opinion when compelled
to.

Geo. E. Merrill, of Ashland, candidate
for State Senator on the repub-
lican ticket as follows: s'Geo.
=. Merrill was, in years gone by, a
schoolmate of the senior, who knows
that no truer or better chum, as a boy
ever lived and the same trait has
followed him to mans estate. George

The Medford Star and News COM
ments on the results Of the senatorial
convention as follows: "While the
friends of Mr.. Ring were not prepared
for such result, yet bore the defeat
good naturally. The deliberations of
the convention were harmonious and
no acrimony was engendered. There
can be no reason why the republicans
of the eleventh senate district can not
heartily support the nominee. The
nomination was given to Mr.. Merrill
without his seeking it, in fact the
whole Ashland vote was given to Ring
throughout the contest, excepting on
the informal ballot, when only Mr..
Merrill's vote was given him, the other
three being cast for Mr.. Merrill as
complimentary. Mr.. MerTill's course
was highly commendable aud shows
the kind Of a man the convention has
placed in nomina ton. No one need
question his ability, and his record as
far as we can learn is clean; he is
wholly disconnected with any of the
fractional disputes and should and will
receive the full and hearty support of
the party at the polls, November I'd.
