arguments being dispensed with. Mr.,
Edes stated he would take the matter
under advlsement until 10 a. m. Mon
day when he will render a decision In
the two cases, against Brown and
Mcdowell respectively. The trial has
caused considerable interest and has
been very hotly contested. The re-

More About the Sewer.
SALEM, Or, Aug. 6,

SALEM, Or, Aug. 6, '96.
EDITOR JoURNAL:--No one is going
to say that the men working on the
state sewer are COMPELLED to sign
the Republican club list, but there Is
one fact that is rather significant
all the men at work on the sewer
signed the paper, and a number Of
them are known to be Democrats and
Populists. Some of them have said
that 1t went against the grain aw-
fully hard to sign the paper, but they
thought of bread and butter for the
little ones. Another thing, the bosses
say they allow no political discussions
among the men, but l notice there are
a number of men there who talk "gOld
standard" and "50-cent dollars" be-
sides attempting to tell how McKin-
ley is the friend Of the laborlng man.
Again, notice they draw the roll
and have them sign il. But that is
not politics?
