Don't b Deceived.

The Republican organs, on this
the eve of election, are showing
their fears, that in spite OF their
boasting and corruption, the Ropub-
licans cannot win the election to-
morrow, and they try to fool the
Democrats into giving their support
to the Republican candidates in
order to defeat the Home Rulers.

is, indeed, ON par with the general
attitude Of fths arrogant Republicans
during the whole campaign. Let

ty Act, which was the main plank in
the Republican platform at the last

so matilatsd, that Governor Carter
knew it would be knocked out by

There is one bright print in the

or (per @ R b., and that 10 the ad-
mission, that even the minority shall
be considered. We are told "that q
year ago almost one. half the people
on this leland voted for change in
the police department., prssumably
on the ground thai ths laws were
not properly sniosesd." A year
after the Governor suddenly came
to the conclusion, that tho will of
the minority should rule, and he
made the change in the police de-!
psrtme which nearly one-half of
the people had demanded aysar
ago. We hope that is an indication
that even if the unexpected should
happen, and the Republicans win
the election tomorrow, changes will
be made st once to suit the senti
ments Of the minority and no moro
welcome steps could be made
than by the immediate rssigation
OF George R Carter, governor.

THIS ROSE HAD

Young PendletOn Benedick
Deserts Weeping Wife to
BaSk With Another

Pendleton, Or, April 21.-One
sweet dream Of has been
shattered, and two fond hearts have
been torn asunder, and all on account
of a vanished face and a lock of braid
! ed hair.
Mrs. Roy Rose, a very pretty little
girl of 10 summers, is mourning for an
absent lord, after just six weeks OF
welded bliss, and the lord is wander
ing from the path in fields unknown.
On February 2Sth Roy Rose, the 49,
year-old son of William e. Rose, a
Main-street barber, was married to
Miss May Holleby, also 10 years Of
age, and the couple went to house
keeping in a little cottage at the edge
of town, on Railroad street. Last
Tuesday the husband left a note with
his wife, since which he has not been
seen.
For about three Jays after the we'd
ding, so Mrs. Rose says, no two peo-
pie on earth could have been happier
or more contented, and then the
trouble began. 1t came in the shape
of a little hair necklace or chain, the
material being taken by Lille Peter
son, a former sweetheart of the newly
married man, from her own head, and
woven by her w fingers. The chain
was sent to the young barber with the
message that the sender loved him
still, and would wait for him until he
tired of his bride and would return
to her.
The chain was a hoodoo, and Rose
struggled against it's influence for a
time in vain. He then made up his
mind to go to Portland, and took his
wife there Sunday morning, two
weeks ago. He secured work, and,
after working one day, went from his
home in the morning and never re.
turned. His wife found instead, the
note which babe her goodbye, and
stated that someone had crossed his
path of whom he thought more than
anybody else on Gods green world.
and that he was gone forever"

ing world as plaintiff and defendant,
with two other men known as judge
and witness and a half dozen others
whose faces can be seen any racing
day in the bookmakers' line at the
Metropolitan race track, there has
been tried a 100000 damage suit
There will be no appeal and the juig-
ment was paid two minutes after the
verdict was announced.
Thomas McAuliffe, known about
the race tracks for years, was the
plaintiff in the case, and the defend
ant was Gottfried Walbaum, the book
maker. Joseph Venjig and Max
Blumenthal, both members of the
Metropolitan Bookmakers' %associa-
ton, were the judges, and the court
was a private room in IN uptown
hotel.
McAuliffe has but one arm, and sew
eral months ago, while departing
from the Astoria club he walked
through a half open door, leading to
a stairway. In his fall he was severely
injured. He fell face downward, cut
ting his face and his neck, besides
breaking several ribs. He was I'M
der medical treatment for some time.
Upon his recovery he made a de-
mand on Walbaum for compensation
for his injuries, alleging that it was
the negligence of the club that caused
them. Walbaum disputed this and
both sides had hired attorneys to en-
gage in a lawsuit when they met a
week ago.
81 do not want the thing hanging
me for three years" said the
defendant. LET us settle It,"
McAuliffe wanted 100000. There
was an argument over the terms and
the plaintiff said; LET us
leave it to the boys and do without
any court. You pick one man and I'll
pick another. Let them hear every
and what they say goes"
In another day Vendig had been
by the plaintiff and Blumen-
thai by the defendant as judges;
witnesses had been notified to be at
the hotel at a certain hour and both
began preparation.
Vendig and Blumenthal went to a
alone and called the plaintiff,
defendant and witnesses one at a
time. At the expiration of two and
one half hours the judges came out.
"Walbaum, give him $4,000, COM
manded one and the other nodded ap-
prevail.
Without a word the defendant
pulled his pocketbook out, four one
thousand-dollar bills were handed
to McAuliffe and the case was de-
clared closed.
