TURLEY is THE SENATOR
Elected to Fill the Unexpired Term
of Isham @. Harris
Governor Taylor Practically Withdraws,
With a Declaration for Next Year-Mr.
McMillin Acknowledges DisappOint-
ment at the Outcome.

NASHVILLE, Feb. Thomas Battle
Turley viii return to the senate of the
United States, and there take his place
among the great men of that body.
The Democrats, in caucus assembled
tonight, so decreed, and their decree is
being ratified tonight by every Demo
crat who has witnessed or taken part in
the long struggle.
The nomination came on the first
ballot taken tonight, and was some
what of surprise to the McMillin men.
The friends and supporters of Gov.
Taylor had gotten together in the
afternoon and agreed that they would
vote for Turley. The meeting was held
about 5 o'clock, and too late for the
McMillin men to do any effective work
before the caucus met. Gov. Taylor
was aware of the proceeding and, in
reality, acquiesced in it.
The first and only ballot taken to-
night, and the 145th of the contest, re-
suited as follows: Turley 46, McMillin
43, Taylor 1. The detailed vote was as
follows:
For Turley-Senators Canada, Clai-
borne, Gillian, Gilmore, Guild, Gum,

dell, Whitaker; Representatives Bag

.
Much interest was felt by every citi-
zen of The Dalles i'll the outcome of last
nights council meeting, when final
vote was to be taken on the light ques-
tion, which has proven iteelf decidedly
k'heavy."
The councilmen were also deeply con-
cerned in it as the result shows, and
there were present: Stephens, Clough,
Barnett, Cunning, Keller, Butts, Johns
and Kuck, as was also Mayor Nolan,
presiding. 4
The most important subject was left
till the last, and the council proceeded
to other work, first deciding to loan out
the surplus city funds in the hands of
the treasurer.
Twas moved and carried that the
finance committee be empowered to en-
ploy an expert to inquire into the state
of the taxes due from the county to the
city, by looking over the tax list and
records.
The fire and water committee reported
that new chimney had been erected in
the fire engine house.
Councilman Johns, of the judiciary
committee, reports that the outstanding
warrants to be redeemed by the style a
fund are to be run two years longer!
The style A fund is explained as being
the fund of $500 set apart in 1895,
when the city decided to, start in on
cash basis, to redeem that much of city

sell the lot belonging to the city on

could be obtained.--.

ton or had already decided the only
course to take, and vote being taken
Clough, Johns, Cumming, Stephens,
Barnett and Butts voted for, and Kuck
and Keller against. No discussion oi
the matter was had, but everything
passed off very pleasantly. =
Now that the council has done what
seemed their duty to the city in regard
to this matter, the only question arising
is, can the mayor and recorder, who have
the contract to arrange with the Electric
Light Company, come to satisfactory
agreement with them? It is thought nc
difficulty will arise in this matter, anG
that lights are now assured.
Many are inquiring as to the length o.
time it will require to place them ir
position. We are informed by Mr.
French that it will require month al
least; the exact time cannot be esti
mated.
