Especial from United Press.)
 Corte Madiero California; March "A. When restrained by public opinion and the arguments of her friends, Helen Gladys Emery. daughter of an rch-Deacon of the Episcopal Church and her mother are preparing to leave for the east where she will wed Gun giro Aokf. who clans to be son of the late Japanese General Ooki. Be cause of the agitation against the we'd ing it has been deemed advisable not to have it solemnized in this section.
 The Arch-Deacon is broken hcarted but admits that he cannot sway either his daughter or his wife. The latter declares that the marriage will be all right as christianity teaches that all souls are white.'' Charles Emery, brother of Helen. in answer to a letter from his sister asking him to approve the wedding wrote his mother as fol- lows: Dear Mother-You know how l detest a negro. Better not"
 If the marriage takes place 1t will add to the intense feeling against the Japanese on the coast. Friends of Aoki are urging him to break off the en- gagement on the ground that it will give the residents of California addi- tional arguments to show why. anti Japanese legislation should be passed.

time do your work, and let the end
take care of itself. If you do we'll
now you need not worry about the
future.
Get right to work and get your
share of the subscriptions to be had
only for the asking.
A little over three weeks remain
in the great Capital Journal contest.
Not very many days, is it? Well,
that means little concentrated work
for every contestant in the race, es-
pecially if the contestants want to
make any showing on the last day OF
the race, Dec. IS, 1903.
Do Il Now.
Now is the time to get in few
votes. The contest is fairly on its
way and the people all over the coun-
try are aroused to meet the demands
made upon them by the young ladies
who are soliciting votes. If little
effort is displayed the people will be
glad to help you, and you will find
getting subscriptions not at all bur-
densome. In fact, it will grow to be
a pleasure. There are so many fun
ny incidents which happen in day
after votes that you will be sorry
when the contest is over The man.
ager of the contest department feels
that the support already given has
honestly been earned. While the
contest is in it's infancy get out
among the people, friends and rela-
tives and do little talking. You
will grow to enjoy it and the expe-
rience thus gained is worth four
prizes. If you don't get the subscrip-
tions someone else will, as Salem and
the adjacent territory will be scour-
ed as though scratched with fine
tooth comb in the endeavor to get
possible subscribers. While the af-
fair is just getting started get out
and do your work on the quiet. A
reserve will do lots of good and 1t
can best be acquired by getting peo-
pie to subscribe for The Capital
Journal.
Back Subscriptions.
In answer to the many inquiries,
we wish to state that back subscrip-
tions count the same as advance paid
during this offer. For example, il
your subscription is in arrears six
months and you pay twelve months,
your time is extended six months,
or twelve months from expiration,
and votes issued accordingly.
Summary of Prizes Offered.
The grand prize automobile will
go to the young lady who receives
more votes than any other girl in
! the contest, no matter which district
she resides in.
In each of the three districts we
will give absolutely free one $425
Eilers piano, one $100 diamond ring
one beautiful gold watch, one siS
months course in the Holmes Busl-
ness College.
These prizes will be given absolute
ly free to the young ladies of Salem
and other disericts. All that is ne
cessary to be a winner is to be one
of the first in your district when the
votes are counted.
Everything Fair and Equal.
Every part and phase of the con.
test has been planned out in the ut
most fairness. The territory, both
in the city and the country, has beer
divided into districts so that candt'
dates in one part of the country will
not be competing with more favor
able conditions than candidates In
another part.
In the city of Salem the interest is
such that friends of candidates cal

concerning very black eye which was
supposed to have some relation to
personal assault. But McGannon had
carried the black eye during the day,
hours before he was found on the side
walk at 1870 p. m He had been in a
BARRIERS chair in the afternoon, and
Alika Dowsett, one of the members Of
the coroner's jury, saw him there and
noticed the eye. That disposes of the
theory that he received the black eye
at the time he was supposed to. have
been knocked down by some soldiers,
as an afternoon paper says. Half a.
dozen men in uniform were seen on
Bethel street a<minute or two after
McGannon was discovered lying on

MAYOR GETS
MUCH PUBLICITY

Mayor N. 8. Pratt has found that
his position in mounting the com.
mission plan band wagon at the
right moment has proved q good
Investment. from the standpoint Of
newspaper advertising. He has se-
cured more space In the papers
OF the country in this way than he
could buy with the salary of his
whole term in office.
The mayors secretary, who
looks after the mayors publicity,
sent out announcement of the fact
that the mayor had come out for
commission plan of government to
5000 newspapers from Maine to
California. The story places the
mayor as the initial figure in the
movement and quotes him to the
effect that he will appoint a COM
mission in few days to place the
commission plan in operation in
Spokane.
The returns from the secretary's
publicity efforts In behalf of the
mayor are now coming in
through the medium of a national
press clipping bureau, to- which the
mayor. through hts secretary, has
subscribed. The Pratt story was
accompanied by the mayors photo
graph, and the large patches of
clippings coming In daily show
that the article was widely copied.
