to Miss Laura Hancock, a. niece OF
the late General Winfield Scott Han
cock Four children have been born

He was president Of the State Ag-

and did much to make the different
fairs a success. He was elected to the
legislature and served us, speaker OF
the House of Representatives in 1887.
His record as speaker is conspicuous
for true loyalty to the demands and
requirements OF the people at large
without respect to class, condition
or vocation. In 1883 when the Re
publican State Convention met Mr..
Merriam was nominated by the dele
gates from the rural counties for the
high office OF governor. Neither St.
Paul or Minneapolis supported him
in the convention, As governor he
has given the State agood, clean bus

election, and there is no reason why
he should not receive an emphatic
endorsement on Nov. 4th.

Il. o. Hanson, the Republicannom-
: inee Tor senator from the 52d sena-
torial district, comprising Mnrshall
ana kittson counties, was born in
Dane county, Wisconsin, Jan. 10Th.
1898 Ills parents resided in Dane
county till he was four years OF age
when they removed to Buffalo coun-
tN IN the same state Mr.. Hanson's
parents were well to do farmer people
who believed thoroughly in the
American idea OF education and
therefore gave their son as good q
training rs the excellent common
schools OF Wisconsin would permit.
At twenty-five years OF age Mr.. Han
son removed to Grant Co., Mimi.
where he took up government land,
upon which he resided several wears.
1t VII! thus be seen that Mr.. Hanson
Is we'll fitted by his education andex-
per'ence in pioneer life to represent
this new district in the Red River
Valley. Mr.. Hanson has travelled
extensively in the northwest through
the states OF Dakota, Montana,
Washington, Oregon and California.
and has protited much thereby, gain
ing much that goes in to complete
the liberal education which every one
should possess who is to occupy the
responsible position of state senator
Mr.. Hanson settled in this county
in 1888, at Stephen, where he still
resides. He opened hardware store
at that time, and has done a pros-
porous business from the start. He
has always held farm and consider
able farming property ever since his
arrival in the county. Mr.. Hanson
mas rare business tact and has done
a great deal to help ont our settlers
IN their struggles to found new homes
mere IN unsettled territory. The fact
that he has never foreclosed a mort
gage, but has made friends with his
patrons speaks well of his business
ability as we'll as OF his genuine sym-
pathy for our Farmers in their hard
struggles.
MI. Hanson has bad much expert
ence in public affairs although he has
never been what is known as a polit-
zeal worker. He was chairman Of the
Gown board in Rosevilie, Grant Co.,
1or live Years, and has been president
OF the village council in Stephen for
tour consecutive terms, being re-
elected last spring with no opposi-
ton whatever. The Republicans
claim that Mr.. Hanson is one Of the
most thoroughly equipped candi-
dates now before the people in the
entire Red River Valley. He has
always been noted as a man of the
strlctest integrity OF character, up
right and honest in all his dealings,
ana IN electing him the Republicans
OF the district will honor themselves.

The Steamer Hope Landed High and
Dry in a Cow-Pasture.
NArA, January 27th.-When Napa's cit
zens arose Sunday morning and went down
10 the river bank to take look ct torrent
that was raging the night before, they were
surprised TO ind the food entirely abated.
A has.y inventory of the damage shows
that though the freshet was high one,
yet Napa valley people have suffered but
little.
Within the corporate limits of the city,
on First street, considerable damage has
been done the highway. Between the
CroWey building and Chinatown the road
is as good as ever because it has a basslt
rock foundation. Further eastward the
same street was badly washed where the
waters flowed across it. Several holes,
from one to two feet deep, were fGrrowed
out and every bit of the six inches of
slinly mud which had covered the street
was swept away, leaving the thoroughfare
clean but very rough. 1t needs immediate
attention, being one Of the leading inlets TO
the city.
Third street shows similar storm traces
and the powders now stick up white and
dry, where before were many inches OF
mud. Fronting on both of these avenues
fences were broken down and gardens
ruined.
The residents on Grant avenue and
other streets in that vicinity were some
what disturbed by the high water. The
one owned by the city in front of Miglia-
vacca's wine cellar, of all others, needs most
prompt attention.
The cross walk on Oak street, corner of
Grant avenue, is now floating, probably on
San Pablo Bay, whittier it was followed by
a cross-street Uulvert.
The county's loss is principally to roads.
Two bridges were washed out in front of
the Juarez place, and there will be consid-
cradle work for roadmasters around St.
Helena and Calistoga.
The Southern Pacific Company showed
commendabie promptness in so soon get
ting their track in condition for travel.
Two trains from San Francisco reached
here yesterday, the first at about $3.50
o'clock and the other at about I. The up
valley train went down on schedule time.
Trains are running regularly to- day.
OF the private losses that of the owners
of the Hope is, perhaps. the largest. The
vessel is high and dry in the Mcclure pas
ture, about two miles south of town,
though, fortunately, she is very close to
the water. The steamer has as yetreceived
no serious injury, and it is believed that
contractor George Hamlin will, with his
house-moying appliances, be able to get
her back into the channel again. The other
steamboat-owners were damaged, though
only to a small extent.
In the vicinity of Thompson's station
and Suscol the waters overlooked q vast
area, but no damage is reported.

Railroads Washed Out and the County
Roads impossible.

Roads impossible.
UKIAH, January 27th.-The floods of Fri
day and Saturday were the heaviest known
here for twenty years. Hundreds of acres
of land were under from three to six feet
of water. Considerable damage has been
done TO property along the Russian river
and its tributaries.
Several families were rescued from the
food by means of RATS on Saturday, whose
escape had been cut off by the sudden rise
of the water on Friday night. All travel
by stage or rail has been stopped, in conse-
euence of the terrible condition OF the
roads.
The first mail or papers that have ar
rived in Ukiah for week were brought. in
to-day by George Jamison, Ukiah news
agents hand-car. Mr.. Jamison reported
the railroad in very unfavorable condi-
ton, slides being numerous and large.
There are no less than fifty huge slides, be-
sides large washouts, about one mile north
of Squaw Rock Tunnel. There is about
500 miles of track completely washed away.
In some places the track hangs suspended
for sixty feet.
The river has fallen very fast in the past
twelve hours. al the low lands in the
valley were completely covered. There
was considerable of the telegraph lines
washed away, hundreds of yards being car
ried out in the river Telegraphic connec-
lions were made yesterday. On account
of the condition of the road it will be nee
essary to bring the mail through on pack
trains.
Chief Engineer Zook arrived here to-day
He thinks it will be three weeks before any
regular trains will be able to run. The
toll-road is impossible from Cloverdale tC
Ukiah.
