OUR LAST APPEAL.

The state campaign of 1896 can
be called completed. A day of rest
intervenes before the battle of the
ballots begins, and then the people
of Oregon will declare their opinion
as to the fitness of the various candi-
dates to represent them in office.
The CHRONICLE has heartily sup
ported the regular Republican ticket.
We believe the principles for which
the Republican party was folnded
and upon which its ultimate success
depends, can be best advanced by
the election of Mr.. Ellis. In unity
there is strength, and the fact that
Mr.. Ellis was nominated in regu-
lar Republican convention, where
the right of the delegates to seats
in the convention had been passed
npon by the highest authority, viz,
the convention itself, entities that
gentleman to the consideration of
Republican voters.
The past campaign has not been
an harmonious one, but prejudice
should not triumph over sound judg-
ment. The candidacy of Judge
Northup is not free from objeetiona-
BILE features, and furthermore we be-
lieve that Republican votes cast for
Northup aid in the election Of Ben
nett cot Quinn. Wasco county
should stand by the regular Republi-
Gan nominee and roll up for Mr..

Ellis rousing majority. In this
way the factional dissensions in the
party can he the better healed.

Since the sheriff's and clerks Office
were put upon salary basis, thous-
ands of dollars have been saved to
the county which formerly went to
the occupants of these offices, and
yet the county debt IS not reduced.
Should Robert Mays be elected
judge, as there is every probability
he will be, the showing four years
from now will prove the wisdom of
his election. Let US honor this wor-
thy pioneer, and by so dong benefit
ourselves.

a few miles from Ahwahnee. McGoon
was alone in his cabin, and when McGusk
rode up he stepped to the door with a
shotgun. Without word of warning he
raised the gun to his shoulder and fired.
McGusk, who was at close range, dropped
dead. Word was sent to Constable Lara
more at Fresno Flats, and he FASTENED to
Ahwahnee and placed McGoon under
arrest.
Richard McGoon is man about As years
of age snd has lived in That country for a
number of years. Some years ago he lost
his reason and was taken to the insane
asylum at Stockton. He was confined
there about two years. 1t was believed
that he had recovered, SO he was permitted
to go to his home IN the mountains. Since
that time be has been noticed to act queer
ly and at times showed symptoms of the
return OF the malady. He was not be-
lieved to be at all dangerous, however, as
he always appeared harmless.
William McGusk, the murdered man,
WIS about 80 years old. He had lived in
the Whiterock district for a number OF
years, owning many cattle. He bore the
reputation of being a quiet and peaceable
man. McGusk was brother OF Jack"
McGusk, who was shot and seriously
wounded in difficulty with W. II. Wells

Church. Oakland. This was followed by

AT the afternoon session Rev. A. X.
crawford OF Oakland delivered learned

TO Dr Browns case, saying that no decIs-
ION had been reached, which was unan-
imously adopted.
When the joint committee appointed at
the request of DR.. Brown ended its labors
IN January last without securing state
ment from the accused pastor it was given
out on what appeared to De. good au-
thorlty that the committee had been
utterly unable to get Brown to make an
explanation, except in his own peculiar
way. Dr. Williams was seen immediately
after the adJournment OF the Bay Assocla-
ton and asked about the matter.
es, 1t is true that DR.. Brown refused
to make statement to the joint commit
tee, except in his own way" he said.
Brown said he would only make an oral
explanation, but we insisted on his reduc-
ing anything he cared to reveal to writing.
II we could have employed a stenographer
1t would have been different. 1t is an easy
matter to say one thing now and three or
tour months hence deny that he ever
said it.
THE joint committee did not care to
take such chances. and so thought it best
to adjourn. DR.. Brown would probably
have Jared better had he agreed to do as
we wished"

FLOWERS FOR THE LADIES
Coaches Appropriately Decorated With
Blossoms From Southern
Gardens.

LOS ANGELES, CAL. April 14.-It was
midnight before the last of the three spe
cial trains bearing the delegates to the
Hotel Mems Mutual Benefit Association
reached Los Angeles. They were due here
six hours earlier, but the snowstorm in
Arizona delayed them. A special train
containing the reception committee of the
Southern California Hotel Association left
Los Angeles Grande station at Z 80 o'clock
in the morning for Barstow to meet and
welcome the visitors. At Raymond bas-
kets of flowers for the ladies and bouton-
nieres for the men were received from the
Raymond gardens, and at Pasadena
streamers Of smilax and flowers for deco
rating the cars were taken on.
The reception committee was made up
as follows: San Diego-George W. Lynch
and Miss Kendall; Los Angeles-A. c.
Bilicke, +. o. Johnson and wife, Thomas
Pascoe, II. w. Chase and wife and Charles
H. Smith; Coronado - E. S. Babcock; !;

Stanton; Pasadena-J. H. Holmes, G.
Wharton James and Miss Farnsworth
Representatives of the Southern California
Railroad Company and the Western Union
and Postal Telegraph companies, who ex-
tended to the visitors the courtesies of
their respective lines, were also aboard the
train. The San Diego City Guard band
was taken along to discourse music.
A royal welcome was extended to the
400 excursionsts, and the ride from
Barstow to this city was exceedingly
pleasant after the tedious journey through
mountains and desert. Owing to the
delay in arriving the reception at the
Westminster Hotel last evening had to be
abandoned. Most of the delegates will re-
main in the cars until morning.
The programme for to-day includes the
opening of the convention at 10 A. NJ and a
car ride about the city. At 1:15 P. NJ the
visitors will come together on Judge
Silents lawn, at the corner of Adams
and Figueroa streets, where an open air
lunch will be served. A carriage drive
through the city will follow, and train
leaves at 6:30 P NJ. for Santa Monica,
where a hop at the Hotel Arcadia will
round out the days pleasure.

owing the Proceedings.
The Bay Conference will meet at Berke-
ley to-day. Promptly at l 80 o'clock Mod
orator Mclean will rap for order. and then
the great Brown scandal will be gone over
again.
There is considerable diversity of opin-
ion as to the strength Pastor Brown will
develop in the conference. It is generally
conceded that at least three of the San
francisco members will support him.
Foster of Lorin is also known to be his
friend, and 1t is expected that other men,
bers from the country will come to his
rescue.
DR.. Mclean of Oakland will lead the
hight against the convicted pastor. As a
prominent mem Der of the conference ex-
pressed it yesterday: 'It is a struggle be-
tween Mclean and Brown, and it is not
thought possible that the latter can save
himself with such an able antagonist to
deal with"
The Bulletin of last night contained a
letter from Franklin L. Lord, at present
living in Detroit but formerly publisher
of paper in Kalamazoo. Mr.. Lord uses
rather vigorous language. saying that on
one occasion he called Brown "willful
liar and accused him of breaking one of
the statutes of Michigan. The trouble be-
tween Lord and Brown grew out of an ar
ticle published in the paper conducted by
the former rejecting seriously on the char
acter of the minister.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, April 15.-The
regular April meeting of the State Board
of Agricultural Directors was held to-day
Director Chase was reelected president,
and the following State Fair committees
were appointed: Premium list-Land, Cox,
Delong, Matthews and Flickenger: speed
programme - Wilson, Terry, Boggs
Mackey and Gird.
After considerable discussion it was
agreed that the time of the fair should be
extended one week, from September to
10 inclusive. This move has long been the
pet scheme of Director Land, and means
an increase to the revenues of this city of
at least 100000 outside money. AS the
prospective entries at the track are far
more numerous than last year it is ex-
pected that the speed programme will be
even better than in 1895.

The third section of the excur sion left
Barstow soon after the second. There are
eighty-four persons on the train, compris-
ing the New England delegation, with G..
II. Bowker as captain. The train consists
of three Wagner sleepers-the Wildwood,
Tagus and Radcliff-and Wagner baggage,
buffet and dining cars.
At Barstow the reception committee s
car, San Vicente, was attached to the New
England train. and badges, souvenir itin-
eraries and flowers were distributed
throughout the train.
A special car from Denver will probably
arrive tomorrow, and that party, together
with those who previously came in, will
bring the number present up to $50.
The New England train came near meet
ing with disaster in the Ration pass. The
coupling between the engine and coaches
parted and the train started to run back

Death of AN old Negro.

John Demby, an old colored man, for twenty
one years janitor in the Risdon Iron Works
dropped dead last evening at o'clock, on the
corner OF Beale and Market streets. Demby
had just aEghted from a Valencia-street car
when he reeled and fell to the sidewalk He
was carried to the iron works where it was
found that he was dead. The Coroner was
notified and the body was removed to the
Morgue. The fact that Demby fell to the
ground Immediately after alighting from the
car led many TO believe that a sudden lurch
had thrown the old man to the pavement and
body and it is presumed that death resulted
from natural causes.
