AWAITING THE VERDICT.

The presidential campaign of 1908 is
drawing to a close Tonight will see
the last of the red fire and parades
and the final appeals will have been
made to the voters. The Democratic
party. under the lead of William Jen-
nings Bryan, has made a clean, hon.
est fight. a manly fight for the best
interests OF the people of the whole
country. The pledges made by the
Denver convention have been scrupu-
lousy carried out. Every dollar con-
tributed to the campaign fund has been
accounted for and the names of the
donors published to the world as an
evidence of good faith. The issues pre-
scented in the platform have been dis
cussed throughout the land and the
principles involved have been ably and
fearlessly upheld by Mr. Bryan. Mr.
Kern and other distinguished leaders of
the Democratic party.
There has been no lodging or quib-
bling. Mr.. Bryan has preached the
doctrine of tariff reduction, election of
senators by the people. guaranty Of
bank deposits. publicity &c campaign
contributions and the destruction of
the trusts and monopolies with all the
power and eloquence at his command.
He has appealed for the verdict of
the people. confident of the business of
his cause and the integrity of his pur-
pose.
On the Republican side the platform
patched up by the Chicago convention
was discarded almost as soon as 1t was
adopted. and instead OF a discussion of
issues the orators of the party in power
have endeavored to becloud them by
personal abuse of Mr.. Bryan. Presi-
dent Roosevelt has used all the power
which attaches to the Office of chief
executive of a great nation in behalf
of Mr. Taft. whose nomination he
forced by the aid of an army of fed
eral Office holders. The Republican
campaign has been virtually man
aged from the White house. the execu-
tive mansion being turned into politi-
cal headquarters for the time being.
Letters. bulletins and manifestos have
been issued daily, no election device
being too trivial to escape attention
The precedent has been set that the
president of the United States can
not only select his successor, but is

Mr. Taft should deny that ali the

Odd Fellows Furnish Room.

The members of Laurel lodge
have again demonstrated the spirit
of their order by furnishing a room
in the Odd Fellows home in a most
substantial manner. They never
do things by halves, this bunch
and they knew every member of
the lodge would want to have a
finger in the pie; SO they made an
assessment of the membership OF
80 cents per. They went to Calef
Bros, where, when the benevolent
mission was explained, they were
met half way by that enterprising
firm and were given just about
cost price on everything, and in
one instance, that of the beautiful
Morris reclining chair, was sold to
them at Sr.5o below actual cost
The list of articles purchased for
the room, which will be known as
Laurel lodge room in the home, is
as follows:
Velvet rug, 9xI2 feet, quarter
sawed, golden finished oak dresser,
swell front; quarter sawed oak COM
mode to match; automatic Morris
chair with candasio cover, felted
silk floss mattress, Leggett coil
spring bed, heavy iron bedstead,
cream enamel, gilt ornamentatlon; !;
large arm chair and quarter sawed
golden oak stand to match suit.
The purchase price of the entire
outfit was sroS which can hardly
be duplicated in any Portland
house for less than $3.50. The
Laurelwood Rebekah lodge pur-
chased the bedding for the bed,
which cost about S25 more. When
these articles are all placed, there
will not be finer furnished room
IN the home. This is done for the
benefit of the aged Odd Fellows
md Rebckahs who are unable to
provide for themselves, and is de-
'erving Of the highest praise of the
benevolent of all classes in society. |

I, has reached our table. II is a
very comprehensive description of
the popular winter course at that
institution. Any one interested
may receive full information by
applying to the president of the
Oregon Agricultural college, Will
liam J. Kerr. There are five of
these short courses as follows: Cen
eral agriculture, two weeks; dairy
ing, six weeks; horticulture, six
weeks, mechanic arts, six weeks;
household science, six weeks.
There is no charge for tuition and
we do not know how a young man
or young woman on the farm could
so benefcially employ themselves
during the duller period of winter
than to take one or more of these
courses If they cannot take a full
course at the college.
