Fight for the Location Of the
Democratic Convention.
WASHING TON, February 20.--The
delegations from the Western States
are busy tonight striving to secure
the next Democratic Convention.
Chicago, st. Louis and San Francisco,
the three principal delegations, are
all confident of success. They unite
in declaring that the convention will
go West. OF the three, San, Francisco
is most enthusiastic, and it ia ad.
mitted tonight by the St. Louis dele
cation that the talk runs toward the
Pacific coast, but they claim
that this is due to the
extravagant promises made. From
the best analysis possible 1t would
seems that San. Francisco expects all
the country west Of the Rocky Noun
tains and number OF the votes in the
South. 1t is conceded that Chicago
will have New England, except per-
haps Massachusetts. which favors
st. Louis. This with the favor of the
northwest and some support of the
central portion will give the Lake City
a good showing. st. Louis strength
will come from the Mississippi valley
and the southwestern States and
Territories. 1t is said that some OF
the southwestern States favor St.
Louis as second choice after San
Francisco.

The City Printing.

The item in the Daily Herald yesterday
morning in reference to the city printing is
a very unkind one. In the first place new
city ordinances are mere matter ofnews and
should be published by newspaper anyway,
and II Is for this reason the DEMOCRAT
makes a low bid. The price bid Is at the
rate of 90 cents per 1000 ems, over twice
what the Herald did the work for two or
three years ago. In the matter of system
of prices for space no paper in Oregon needs
a press association more than the Herald !
but this is a matter il Is foolish Tor newsPa-
pers to quarrel about The price bid IS more
than the Herald gets perissue for any stand
Ing ad in It's daily issue, several times as
much as for some. Figure 1t up.
Speaking about what anewsPaper values
Its advertising space at,allow US to remark
that our contemporary is running new
advertisement for a short time at the rate
of about 3cents per inch per insertion,and
Is getting very fair price. Figures don't
lie. Measure your ads. and see howit IS
with yourself Give us little rope and
we can prove that the city will be paying
consid cradle for its space, that Is II It ever
had much. AS matter of fact about the
only thing there has ever been in the mat
ter Is the title "City official paper"
