Prosecuting Attorney.

The voters OF this district should rise
above party prejudice and elect an able
and competent man for district attorney.
This is one Of the most important Offices
to be filled at the coming election. Is is
too important an Office for the members
Of any party to vote for their party nom-
inee on purely partisan grounds. The
Office is strictly non-political. 1t should
be filled by lawyer Of sound judgment
and unquestioned ability.
4. B. Dnfur, the democratic nominee,
| fills the measure OF that standard. Be-
sides being eminently qualified for the
position, he is possessed Of sound judg-
ment and rare discrimination powers
VIII ich would insnre taxpayers against
useless or unnecessary expense. He is
cautious in commencing litigation, but
once in, he is formidable opponent.
No person who has heard him in court,
or no lawyer who has met Mr.. Dufur,
either as an associate or an opponent,
will for a moment question his ability
TO hold his own with the best, and it is
the best that the district attorney has to
meet.
Mr.. Dufur is an attorney Of many years
successful experience, during which time
he'has taken part in nearly all the inn
portant litigation Of Wasco county. His
associates who have known him at the
bar during all the period Of his practice,
inform US that they never knew of his
being demurred out OF court, or nonsuit-
ed during all that time, and during the
past ten years he has doubtless particle
pated in as many trials as any one law
yer In the district and with as much sue
cess. The district wants the service OF
just such man; man who has proved
himself as Mr.. Dufur has, to be an able
lawyer and man OF unquegtioned in
tegrity. He is one OF the most honorable
men in the profession, enjoys the conf
dence Of his associates for his honesty
and estimable qualities, and Is eminent
ly qualified to fill the position to which
he aspires, and to which he should be
elected on the 4th OF June. He is no
experiment; he will be no mistake.
A great many popnlists throughout
the 7th district, believing that there is
no chance for their nominee. Mr. Sine,
to be elected this time, will support Mr..
Dufur, which shows excellent judgment
on their part.

THE RENroN WILL CONTEST.

Step Daughters of the Deceased Mil
lionairs Bring Another Suit.
SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 29.-Mrs. Eliza
beth w. Sackman and Mrs. Mary A.
Gafney have brought another suit in
the superior court to get possession OF
the very valuable estate left by William
Renton.
Plaintiffs are the daughters OF Mrs.
Renton by her first marriage. They
have contested the will of their step
father, and they also have a suit in in
tervention against the distribution Of
his property. The complaints are very
similar and are intended to block at
different points the distribution of the
estate.
According to tho story of ths plaint-
IFS, Rsnton married their mother in
1840. She had inherited small for
tune and trading schooner valued at
$1,000 from their father, Joseph Sylve.
Renton had nothing at the time, they
declare, but he uaed bis wiie's small
capital and built up q fortune of several
million dollars.
In 1860 the capital had increased to
1880, 900. Renton invested this in the
Port Blakeley cav mill in Washington,
and soon became q power in the lumber
trade.
When Rsnton died in 1890 he be.
Queathed the bulk OF his big fortune to
his own relatives. Mrs. Sackmsn and
Mrs. Gaffney claim that as he made the
fortune out of their mothers exelusiv 9
property, they are entitled to the
profits.

Mrs. George Gould.

Mrs. George Gould has new neck
lace that is positively dazzling and Is
said to contain some of the finest stones
seen in England for long time. Ii
seems when the Goulds sailed to con-
quer English society Mrs. Gould, OF
course, had jewels. diamonds and neck
laces, for that matter. These were quite
well enough for America and Lakewood,
but would not do at all for anything SO
grand as England So the order was
given for something that was a shade
finer than any necklace Mrs. Gould was
likely to meet, and the result Is another
feather In Americas cap.
IL also seems that we are going to
lose the Gouids; that English society
has fallen SO deeply in love with pretty
Edith Kingdom that was or she has
found them SO captivating, that the
Goulds will not let their society laurels
cool, and it may be long time before
New York society has the chance to
take the Goulds by the hand and well
come them into the -Four Hundred.
In October they may shine on the
United States, but in few weeks will
pack up she family wardrobe, its jewel
cases and silver cases, cut some more
coupons and hurry back to England. -

woman,s N ovs,ment In 1aexioo.


Our sister republic to the south has
been invaded by the movement for the
Acknowledgement Of woman, and just
now the movement Is being discussed
by the Mexican press with no little an
imation. The immediate cause of the
present interest was the refusal of one
Of the city courts to license a young lady
law student to practice before it. The
writers Of Mexico have long been urg-
ing the broadening Of woman's sphere
and advising ladies to enter positions
which had hitherto been monopolized
by the men. They were advised to be-
come saleswomen, stenographers, book
keepers telsgraphers. etc., and some
two years ago, when young lady gradu-
ated at medical school and was ad-
mitted to practice medicine, the papers
of the country had good deal to say
about the great advance in woman's 8
work
The great majority Of them, however,
indorse the opinion Of the court, which
does not want to see female lawyer.
They think that the legal profession is
too near the ballot box, and that when
women are allowed to practice law they
cannot we'll be hindered from voting,
which Mexico is good ways from be-
ing prepared for yet. New Orleans Pic

will mount the hill with less effort on
the part of the wheelman to propel 1t

At a Recent Test In Russia 1t Frouuced
Amazement Among the Experts.

At Recent Test In Russia 1t Prouuced
Amazement Among the Experts.
The SO called magnetic shell, which
has been used at the trials of English
armor plates at Okhta, near st. Peters
burg, has made an extraordinary record.
The shell was fired at soft ST. Chamond
plate at right angles, and the penetration
was 015 inches Another she'll penetrat-
ed 16 inches. One shell was discharged
at inch Harveyized plate at an an
gle of 20 degrees. The projectile passed
through the plate and backing and fell
about 400 yards beyond, performance
which filed the scientific experts pres
ent with amazement.
Further trials will be made, but for
the present no plates Of the requisite
strength are forthcoming those already
used, which were manufactured special
ly for the purposes of the trial, being SO
shattered as to be useless for future
tests. The general impression among
military experts is that the magnetic
shell is not a now shell at all, but sim
ply new invention adaptable to any
modern projoctile
One of the shells that had undergone
tho secret process was exhibited. AL
though it had passed through one of the
armor plates, it was in an undamaged
condition, and as 1t showed no traces
of fastening whereby the new invention
could be attached to it the spectators
concluded that the improvement must
be cap Of softer metal held on to the
top Of the shell by magnetism. This
! nurses the hard point Of the she'll at
the impact and SO helps it to penetrate
the surface Of the plate until it reaches
the softer metal behind. This, at all
events, is one of the guesses at the prin-
ciple of the novel projectile. -Pittsburg
