There is more sincerity than wisdom In Mayor
FaEans fury at the idea Of Hoboken saving
$4,000 in three years at the expense OF the
Stanley syndicate. Naturally he Is indignant
and no one wonders at his wrath, but there Is
some surprise that the Mayor does not control
his feelings better No one ever accused Mayor
Pagan Of zeal for the interests OF the taxpayers
so there is no surprise that he regards 1t as
revolutionary" for the Tax Commissioners to
interfere with monopoly which has managed
to make Hoboken pay Sl3S 20 n year for each
electric light. when the price ought not to have
exceeded $50
Mayor Pagan saws he will put the response

already. The responsibility has been placed on
Mayor Pagan and the Council. They nave 10

In the two contests for seats in the
house of representatives the populists
have been successful. The case from
Jefferson county was remarkable in
that the republican based his contest
on the fact that the vote of the 10Th
Kansas was accepted, which arrived
while the state canvassing board was
in session, but after this case had been
decided in favor of the republican.
The vote of the 10Th changed the re-
suit and the board decided that As
they were still in session, it was their
duty to accept this vote.

The plan of work for the ensuing
year, is to carry on through local
clubs or through individuals in the
state club, line of study of which
public ownership is the keynote.
An editorial committee of one from
each congressional district will carry
out a systematic plan of education up
on public questions through the press
of the state. Mr.. Frank Elliott is
chairman of this committee. All pub
lished matter will be preserved by the
chairman and next year at the insti-
tute we will know exactly what has
been done.
The lessons for the year will be pre-
pared by Prof. Parsons, Prof. Beemis
and Mrs. Diggs.
Two slight changes were made in
the constitution. The editorial COM
mite was added to the advisory coun-
Gil of state officers, and the dues in
local clubs were made five cents per
month instead of per quarter.

OREGON VOLUNTEERS.
They Will Not be Mustered Out in
California.

SAN FRANCISCO, July S.-General
J. B. Babcock. Adjutant General of
the Department of California, has re-
ceived word that the Oregon volun-
teers will be mustered out in Oregon,
according to the original plan. The
transports will enter this port, how
ever, and may be delayed for some
time, according to the necessities for
coaling and fresh supplies. The troops
will not be unloaded from the trans
ports. This is a disappointment to
many of the citizens, who had hoped
to honor and glorify the returning vol
unteers.
They will proceed north by water,
probably on the same transports, al
though this latter plan has not been
definitely settled upon as yet.
WASHINGTON, July s. = Secretary
Alger issued an order to-day direct
ing General Shafter to send the Sec
ond Oregon Regiment from San Fran
cisco to Astoria, Or, on the trans
ports Ohio and Newport. At Astoria
they will be transferred to river steam
ers charted by the Quartermaster's
Department, and taken to Vancouver
to be mustered out.
