tory over the Carleton. 1t was stated al
the time that the real race was between the
Shenandoah and the Carleton, Captains
Murphy and Amesbury having q friendly
wager on the result. For several days alter
the Shenandoah's arrival she carried rae
ing pennant at her mizzen, presumably in
token OF victory over the arietou, but

mind Of any one on board. She just logged
along in the regular way.

saved the county considerable
sums in his management of GRIM

an object to protect the interests
of the people as well as TO prose
cute the guilty. Mr.. Condor is a
man of good Judgment in criminal
matters and is one who will be a

his opponent Mr.. Doris, who is
hardly i'll his legal pants and who
has made reputation anything
but creditable, lobbying in and
about the legislature. MIR. DORIS
is not the kind of a man law abld-

will testify to that at the polls as
well as will the district at large.

Hon. BINGER HERMANN is a good
congressman. He has learned the
ways in which business is handled
at Washinton and is now just at
the height of usefulness. 1t would
be foolish to change from a worker
tried and trusty to man unknown
to the particular work for which
Oregon needs representation. If
any one imagines that congress
man can do full justice to his con-
stituency under several years of
experience he had better try him
self and learn differently. Mr.. Her
mann will do more for Oregon dur
ing the next two years than could
several inexperienced persons.
He is all right in his position on
matters of national import, but a
mans position on the tariff, silver
and the like is not of so much i'm

a man who will lcok after river:
