None Too Old to Learn.

I have been dressmaking for over 30
years, ard have learned and used all
OF the best systems of cutting and
fitting that could be found. Among
those I learned was the S. T. Taylor
system OF New York, which has al
ways been considered the best in this
country. I am now 81 years OF
age. and have just completed a thor
ough course at the Standard Dress
Cutting academy of this city, and L
can truthfully say that L have never
seen or known of any system to equal
il. The measurements are absolutely
perfect. and no one can possibly make
a mistake, if the directions are carefully
followed. 1 find that it is system
that young and old can use with per-
feet success, and so simple that anyone
can learn it. The school girl can learn
as we'll as the experienced dressmaker,
and not only learn it, but use it with
grand results, both for herself and her
family, and in one year will save ten
times what it costs to learn it, besides
this is a work that will last lifetime.
Very respectfully,
MRS. SUE r. Y. SNODGRASS,

OREGON ELECTION MONDAY.
Members of Congress, Legislature
and Full State Ticket.

Portland, Ore, June 4.-The cam
paign preparatory to the state election,
which occurs Monday, was closed to-
night Meetings of all parties were
held in nearly every city end town in
the state. There is to be elected a full
state ticket, two members of congress,
district and county officers, including
the failure of the last legislature to
organize, United States senator is to
be chosen at the coming session.
There are three tickets in the field
the Republican, the Fusionist, COM
posed of Democrats, PopuIists and Free
Silver Republicans. and the Middle Of
the-road Populists. In the presiden-
tial election of 1896, when fusion of the
Democrats, Populists and Free Silver
Republicans was complete, the Repub-
leans carried the state by 200 ma
jority.
The vote of the MiddIe-of-the-road
Populists will not be large, but it is
conceded that it will benefit the Re-
publicans by drawing from the fusion
ticket.
The financial question has been the
though during the past few days the
American Protective association has
figured prominently, especially in the
case of the Republican and Fusion can
didates for governor.
In the city of Portland, the Repub-
lican stronghold, the Republican party
is divided, and two tickets are in the
field.
The Republicans have II hold-over
senators out of a total of 80 members
of the upper house of the legislature,
which will give them a decided advan-
tage in the coming contest for control
of the legislature.

TAXES ON SHEEP.

The state board of equalization, COM

Thomas d. Dee and j. J. Thomas, held
a meeting in Ogden yesterday. The as
sessment rolls of the county were in
spected. The board complimented the
assessor very highly on his work, and
stated that the only changes they would
recommend would be the assessing of
sheep at s., Instead of SIZE per head.
Mr.. Civilian says he will not make
the proposed change, unless Instructed
to do so. In Box Elder county sheep
are assessed at $1.50 per head, and
many Weber county sheep are ranged
in that county. The result of such a
change would be to send all the sheep
tax money to Box Elder county.
