HARRISON r.. KINCAID.

Few men are better known to the peo-
pie of Oregon than the subject of this
sketch, who is the union nominee for
secretary of state. He was born in Fall
Greek, Ind, Jan. 8, 1886, and came with
his parents to Oregon when II years of
age. In 1860 he entered a printing
Office in Eugene, where he learned the
printing trade, and on March u, 1864,
issued the first number of the Oregon
State Journal, of which he has been
editor and proprietor ever since From
1868 to 1879 he was clerk of the United
States senate. Mr.. Kin caid had always
affiliated with the republican party un-
til 1896, and was elected on the republi-
can ticket in 1894. But he being an ad-
vocate of the free coinage of silver, re-
fused to stand with the party on the ST.
Louis platform,

The subject of this sketch, who has
been honored by the republican party
of Wasco county with the nomination
for sheriff, is an Irishman by birth, hav-
ing been born in Dublin 45 years ago
He graduated from Droheda, Latha
county, and while still young man,
came to America, locating first in Chi
cago, where he engaged in merchandising
for three years. For the benefit Of his
wife's health he came west. Arriving
in Oregon, he was attracted to the fer
tile prairies of Wasco county, and Sc
cured a farm near Kingsly, which he
titled for number of years, also devoted
his attention to merchandising in the
town of Kingsly. In connection with
his farm Mr.. Kelly engaged extensively
In horse raising, and imported some of
the highest grade draft horses ever
brought to the coast.
For nearly four years Mr.. Kelly has
served in the capacity of deputy sheriff
of Wasco county, and his work in that
stands as his recommendation
for the position he now seeks. He has
been accurate in his accounts with the
county, obliging to those whom his duty
called him to serve, attentive to busi-
ness, always having been found at his
1esk during Office hours, active in dis
posing of the business entrusted to him;
N short, an officer in whom none could
ind fault, and his nomination by the
republican party was fitting recognition
If the faithfulness of public servant.

G.. M. DONALDSON.

The union convention, held in Port
land last March, nominated Hon. c.
M. Donaldson. of Baker City, for con-
gresham in the second Oregon dis
trict, that Office having been awarded
to the silver republicans, and Mr..
Donaldson being the choice of that
party. was endorsed by the democratic
and populist conventions.
Mr.. Donaldson was born on a farm
in New York, but at an early age en-
gagged In business in the city, and has
lead an active business life. For a
number of years past he has been con-
nected with some of the great mines of
the West, and for ten years has been
engaged ia mining in Baker county.
He is ready speaker, forcible de-
batter, and IS at all times able to defen1
his principles in private conversation
or public discussion. He has been
republican ali his life, but left the
regular party organization when the
national platform of 1896 was promul-
gated.

invalid mother, he left school for good tC
battle with the realities of life.
His first position was with George w.
Bruce, one of the oldest hardware i'm
porting establishments of that day, in
the city of New York, where he re-
mained for period of eight years, and
severing his connection started for the
other verge of the American continent,
locating in Astoria in 1882, where he
had some distant relatives.
His first engagement in that city was
with A. V. Allen, who was then, as he
is now, one of the leading grocers of As
toria. He continued with Mr.. Allen
eight years IS clerk and book-keeper,
when he left his position in 1890, to fill
the Office of recorder of conveyances, to
which he had been elected, an office
which had just been created at that time
by the state legislature for Clatsop
county.
In 1892 Mr.. Dunbar was reelected
and served in that position until July,
1894, when he was elected county clerk
OF the same county and reelected in
1896.
AS an indication of Mr.. Dunbar's pop
ularity as an officer, each time that he
was before the people for their votes he
was elected by increaskd majorities.
AS a public officer Mr. Dunbar is
palnstaking, manly, courteous and
obliging: Should he be elected secretary
of state the same disposition will prevail
In all the departments of that office. A
gentleman by birth and education,
in his office accounts and
records, conscientious in his dealings,
he will be valuable officer to the state.

A McnIorahle Day.

1t is said to be the desire of the Pres
| ident to add a new holiday to those
| already nationalized. with the particu-
lar purpose of celebrating the victorious
ending of the war with Spain. 1t is un-
fortunate that the twenty-frst of No
vember, when America officially pro-
claimed her sovereignty over the Philip
pine Islands, comes so near to the GUS
tomary Thanksgiving Day, for by right
of the superlative Importance of the
event of that day it should be chosen
for an annual remembrance of the en-
trance of America into her majority. 1t
is true that small minority of men of
foreign birth or sympathies and of New
England theorists who fear the contam-
nation of islanders lacking the tradi-
tions of the exclusive Puritans, still
hope to turn the President from his
policy" but men who are less self-cen-
tered and who can make truer esti-
mate of the influence OF the minority,
regard the presentation of our claim
TO the Philippines as final. What fol-
lows. whether it is the signing of a
treaty, under protest or otherwise, or
the resumption of state of war, is of
comparatively little Importance. Presi-
dent Mckinley would as soon blow out
the gas in his bed chamber as to recall
his decision. Until Monday his atti-
tude was perhaps something more than
matter of mere surmise. but the ma
tion felt secure only when our Peace
Commissioners made answer to the
Spanish appeal for arbitration. Spain
may withdraw from the conference to-
day, or she may agree to the treaty un-
der protest and reserve the right to ap-
peal TO the powers of Europe, but in
any event the Presidents decision has
been made and proclaimed and is ire
vocable.
Nobody win exaggerate the signifi-
cance of the document which incensed
the Spaniards To fury or plunged them
into gloom. Nothing else in the history
