LOCAL RECORD

ILUCAII RECORD
Tom \ SroR, MIR II w Parker, cam
lidate for the legislature ON the union
ticket, ran 30 ahead OF his party vote.
According to the brownsville Times he
| told the following story on the campaign
which, now as the election is over, We
| give, though IL really indicates nothing,
for majority of men know very we'll
why they were voting for fcnnoyer'
lie said that while near the Santiam
he was attracted by young man shout
ing, "Hurrah for Thompson. what
| turP' inquired MIR Parker. "Oh he's got
| the scads. you bet" At another place he
met Il young man in town, and ~ he APP
preached the young man threw up his
htnds and shouted: "llurrah for PEN
n lyer." "For what reason % inquired
| Mr. Parker. "Damtiino,' answered the
enthusiast as he spit and shifted his quid
ot tobacco TO the other side OF his mouth.
A CENSUS ISCtpgNr.-Already census
incidents are told the DEMocRAr. One
1f the takers was interviewing we'll
known young lady with the usual inter
rogatorics.
"MarriedP"
| "No."
Was ON the list, but the next question,
seriously given, was II startling one.
"Engaged?"
The young lady blushcd, twisted
around in her chair choked little, aud
was greatly relieved when the census
taker said,
"well, never mind, you don't have to
answer that"
SAVED ny TrrNtcALrrY. Elanton, the
Coliax murderer, will not be hung, but
sentenced for manslaughtor. that being
the only oilense for which the indictment
holds good, MS interpreted by the SUI
premc court.
Now there will be Il fine burst Of indig-
| nation around CultaX about the law de-
| tending the criminal, and the incompet-
ency OF courts to administer Justice. It
| is true that Blanton shot his man in
| cold blood, and that he is acquitted on II
tcchnicalty~-a mistake of the prosccut-
ing attorney in framing the Indictment.

TmE election Of Pennoyer is conceded,
thanks, in u great measure 10 the treach-
cry of Simon and McCiinn, who have so
long been petted by the party they sn un-
mercifully knitted at the polls"-Tele-
gram.
Mctiinty is probably meant. The poor
fellow has had to sink for nearly every
thing recently; but this is hard slap 10
make him sink down for Thompson =
short comings. II Thompson had gone
10 the bottom of his pockets for the Seat
tie and Johnst0wn sufferers, the Hunt rail
road aud so forths. the Telegram might
not nov bc obliged 10 make such accusa-
tions.
OS BEilALr Of the city the Journal still
extends to Hon u L Thompson cordial
invitation to come and live in salem. IL
does not appear that Portland really
cares % keep him aud honor him a. he
deserycs.-Jourual.
II he Lad subscribed to the Hunt rail-
road and few enterprises like that per-
haps Portland would pull his coat tails
more veciierously. Salem il welcome to
him. But the election Is over.
4 SAHrLE.-On clec1ion day an old man
was STRUCK ON the forehead by pluw-
beam while walking on State street. The
pillow was standing up on the sidewalk
and fell oi It's own accord, and the old
man was pretty badly hurt, The cut
bled good deal aud he had to get basin
Of water 10 wash the blood away. This
should be lesson against cumbering up
the sidewalks with wares oi all kinds

EASTERN STYLE Duriag one night

street TO the college and placed IL on the
| front steps, where II was found this morn
ing. They also left the pump and front
part OF the building generally In sfoven-

of Albany bows heretofore, and It Is TO be
regretted any one in the city should be so
low a. to s'OOp 10 such contemplate con
duct.
SOMETHING II IT.-That was hard hit
an irreverent voter gave TO Il politician
Iwho was strict church member, when
he said: "You must think more Of your
politics than you do Of your religion, be.
cause you have often asked me TO vote
for you, and your party ticket, but you
have never asked me to join or attend
your church." There is something IN
this to set some political church mem
bers to thinking.

Douglas county, Is visiting in this city
lie is 8S years of age, and while here me-
an old acquaintance OF his boyhood-

Tennessee. Times.
