"HOIy ROIIering" Again.

.Crefffeld, the scoundrel who poses as
a saint, passed through Benton county
Saturday, and followed by some of
his former victims, is again at his
old tricks in a camp near Waldport
This time he is palming himself off
on his foolish followers as Jesus
Christ risen from the dead, his resur-
rection having been his emergence
from the state penitentiary, Some of
his followers are said to accept him as
the Risen Christ Creff1eld's trip
through Benton was by private con-
veyance from Airlie, Polk county, to
Wren, Benton county. According to
all accounts, a camp is to be estab-
lished near Waldport and a revelry
in rollerism carried on. Cref1eld was
accompanied by his wife. She was
divorced from him last year, but they
were REMARKED in Seattle several
weeks ago. Corvallis Times.

No cleaner fight was ever made in
Polk county than the three-cornered
contest between NJ d. Ellis, U. l..
Frazer and l. A. Allen for the nomin-
alton for Sheriff. Good feeling pre-
vailed throughout the campaign, and
no personalities or abuse of any kind
were INDUCED in. When early returns
gave strong indications that Mr..
Frazer had defeated Mr.. Ellis, the
latter accepted the apparent result with
rare good nature, and expressed him
self as anxious to do all in his power

A farmer subscriber says the candi-
dates advertising before the primaries
was overdone. 1t will be hard to
make Jonathan Bourne, Willis Duni-
way, and other successful candidates,
believe that statement. Advertising
is all right, either as a business -getter
or vote-getter The only trouble is,
some merchants and some candidates
don't do enough of it,

BY ELEANOR G. REESE.

Casino yesterday morning with my
heard woman's voice say: There he
is, now, isn't he interesting looking?'
| did not turn around but some one
drew a chair near mine and sat down
to read. | read long while, until the
place was quite deserted except for
this stranger who had his back to me.
Suddenly, he threw down his book,
walked over to the window and began
to speak, evidently supposing himself
quite alone. At the first sound of his
voice | kept very still in my chair.
What will it all come to-? | heard him
say. / have done all | could, but even
for her dear sake | cannot marry an
other woman In Heavens name why
should |? 1t would all be a damnable
lie from beginning to end, there would
be no peace here nor hereafter. All,
