THE CITY ELECTION.
Nothing Exciting, and Consequently a
Small Vote Polled.

The city election yesterday was the
quietest that has ever been held here.
The fact that the salaried officers are
now appointed by the mayor was the
cause of it. The vote was the lightest
ever known, the total being only 2lS.
For mayor and treasurer there was no
opposition. but in some of the wards a
quiet effort was made to elect council
men other than those nominated.
In the first ward the vote was as fol-
lows, the total being 81: For Mayor
Menefee, "a: Treasurer Burget, 81;
water commissioner at large, j. o.
Mack 10: Z. l.. Schmidt i: Ruch u;
Skibbe L: Dick Nolan l. There
seemed to be an impression among
some of the voters OF this ward that
the creating of the third ward left a
vacancy in the office of water commits
sioner for the first ward, and II votes
were cast for c. L. Schmidt for that
office.
In the second ward there was more
of contest, and the votes were widely
scattered. The total number of votes
was 81. Menefee for mayor receiving
70, Grant Mays l, Robt. Mays l,
Burget for treasurer got the full vote,
81. For water commissioner at large,
Mack got 80, Ruch II, Ed. Mays 3,
Robt. Mays and J. w. Rlakeney 1.
In this ward three councilmen were
elected. l.. E. Grove getting 70 votes,
George Ross 76 and Alex Thompson
-. while G. Mays received 2, B. Mays
l and James White l. For water COM
missioner Robt. Mays got SO. S. B.
Adams 2, Fl. H. Campbell l and
Mays & Adams on the same tickets
get 6.
In the third ward 113 votes were
cast. Menefee for mayor getting 1O4,
C. Lauer l, Robt. Mays 2 and NJ. T.
Nolan /. Burget for treasurer got lib.
For water commissioner at large the
vote was Mack 81, Ruch 36, Fish /,
Schanno l, Ostlund l, James White l.
For councilmen Thomas Woods
received 80 and Ed. Phirman 81.
Phirman had not been nominated, and
his large vote was the result of quiet
work on the part of his friends. For
water commissioner J. T. Peters re-
ceived 10 votes, l.. Butler /. The
returns were all made up in an hour
after the poles closed, and were
canvased this morning by City Re-
corder Dufur, County Clerk Kelsay,
and Justice Davis.

The EIks Capture Cascade Lock ana Keep
Possession One Night,
Last evening the town of Cascade
Locks was literary captured by the
benevolent and protective order OF
Elks-B. P. o. E.-sometimes iber-
ally translated as the Best People on
Earth, and they held possession of it
until this morning. The occasion was
the initiation of W. L. Bradshaw. L..
E. Grove, A. 9. Macallister, Frank
Summers, T. J. Driver, J. A. Crossen
and John Michel, of The Dalles, and J..
G. and I. N. Day of the Locks, into
Cascade lodge, No. 303, and about 81
Elks of Portland came on the evening
train from that city to perform the
ceremony. AS usual on such an oc-
casion the people of Cascade Locks
were generous hosts, and the visitors
received a hearty welcome. At the
depot the members of the B. P. o. E..
were met by the brass band and es'
corted to the hall, when the lodge was
called to order and work began. Some
of the candidates were favored with
front seats and enjoyed themselves
after manner, while others were in
itiated into the mysteries of the order
in the most approved style, and for
which Portland Elks have reputa-
tion in the northwest. 1t was the wee
sma' hours when the Exalted Ruler
adjourned the lodge. and there were
nine more Elks let loose to wander
over the crusted surface of the earth.
After the initiation a most bountiful
rejection was served by the Cascade
lodge, and it is unnecessary to state
that it was duly appreciated. Brothers
in no secret order ever parted with
more earnest good wishes extended to
them than those from Portland re-
ceived as they filed out of the hall and
down to the waiting train, and they
were entitled to it, for they are brave
and fearless Elks, who are lasting
honor to the order.

yesterday over the supposed disappear.

town Friday with load of wool from
Mr.. Sherar's residence on the Des-

Two colored women of questionable

suspicion, and all places in the rear of

REPUBLICANS AND SILVER.

The silver question will not create
any disturbance in that approaching
national gathering of the Republican
League clubs at Cleveland, says the
Globe Democrat. Such fears on this
score as are held may safely be dis
missed. 1t may be true, as report has
it, that "Senator Dubois and others
from the extreme west and of extreme
silver notions announce that they in
tend to force an expression of opinion
on the question:" but their intentions
are likely to be altered when they
reach the meeting place. Dubois and
his friends, after having a quiet talk
with the representatives from the rest
of the country, will be exceedingly apt
to find that an expression of opinion"
on the free coinage of silver at 16 to 1
by the United States Independently
would be an expression which, for
them, had better be left unexpressed.
A few weeks ago the Colorado Re
publican league club voted down
resolution to direct that states dele
CATION to leave the Republican
national convention of 1896 if that
gathering refuse to declare Tor free
coinage. Colorado has a greater in
terest in silver than Dubois state, and
her senator's and representatives have
far more ability and sense than Dubois.
Colorado's Republicans see that free
coinage plank in the platform would
demoralize and degrade the party in
four-fifths of the country-that if it
would not abeat the party it would
make the party feel that it ought to be
beaten. No loyal Republican is going
to ask the party to make any such sac
rifice as this. No Republican national
convention is going to make this sacri-
fee if it be asked.
Has Dubois learned the fate of the
Democrats who have been forcing Sex
pressions of opinion lately in their
party on the silver question? Does he
know what happened to the Democrats
in Missouri who asked their state COM
mittee for such an expression? A
financial delusion which is getting
such kicks and cuffs from the Demo-
Gratis will be kept out of the way of the
Republican party if it's friends are
wise. The political status of free silver
has changed a good deal lately, as
Dubois will find out if he forces the |
issue in any representative Republican
gathering. The monetary imbecilities
and iniquities of 1893-94 have vanished |
with the hard times which bred them.
and they will stay vanished until
another business convulsion comes to
subvert reason and to secure hearing
for the fanatics and the mountebanks.
This is an exceedingly good time for
men like Dubois and Carter to dodge
expression of opinion" For the next
few years the policy of sense for the
silverites is the policy of silence.
