cincts will more than offset any
pluralities the opposition may secure
in Woodbur1 and Silverton.
Mr.. Hawley has visited every
county in the district except Curry,
Lake. Lincoln and Tillamook, and
he has active workers in all of these.
He has everv assurance that he will
have pluralities in 10 of the II
counties, and more than an even
chance in three of the remaining
seven. A careful and very conserva-
tive estimate, based upon reports
from every part of the district gives
him 45 per cent of the total republi-
can vote.
OF course these claims will be dis
puted. To acknowledge them would
be an open confession of defeat. Let
the voter put this statement in his
vest pocket and keep it there until
April 81, and he will find that this
estimate, like every other thus faI
made by the friends of Mr.. Hswley
in this campaign, has been more than
verified. IL is no longer question
as to his success bot as to the amount
of his plurality.

Hawley's Stron6 Lead.

The first preliminary canvass Of
Marion county. made by friends Of
Willis G. Hawley, candidate for con-
gress, has just been completed. The
total registration Of the county shows
about 1000 republican votes. OF these
nearly 1000 are in the 10 Salem pre-
cincts The poll of the Salem pre-
cincts, giving all doubtful voters to
the opposition, shows so per cent for
Hawley. 1t is practically the same in
Aurora, and higher than that in Hub
bard. In jefferson it is almost as
large. The strength of the opposition
is in Woobdurn and the two Silverton
precincts. Hawley may lose these,
with possibly two others. The plural
tiles for Hawley in Aurora, Hubbard
and jefferson, and the 10 Salem pre-
cincts. will represent his plurality in
the county, as the remaining pre-

Fire at Monumental Mine.

The Crescent City Record states !.
that fire last week at the Monumen.
tai mine destroyed five houses occu.
pied by employees of the company.
The mine was shat down last week as
the bad roads to Crescent City made
it too expensive to haul out the con.
centrates for shipment to San Fran
cisco. Complaint is also made that
the freight rates to San Francisco are
exorbitant and that is another cause
for the closing of the mine. The
Record states this shutdown is likely
to be only temporary as it is expected
a better vessel rate will be secured on
concentrate shipments and that the
drying up of the roads will lessen the
team charges from the mine to tide
water.

through fear OF an older man who was

the church was robbed.
Father Francis de Turk of the Sla-

Of the affair. According to his state

ing looted On March II while in his
study above the church the father no
ticed z man standing across the street
