SETBACK PARTIES.

One of the most pleasant Setback
parties of the season was given by
DR.. G. A. Neuffer Friday evening tc
which forty-four of his friends were
invited. A fine turkey dinner was
served, after which the game was
played until the hour when married
men ought to be at home. Most Of
the poor players in town had a gooo
night and carried off the honors at
their tables. A little "frame up" or
Dick Sondley's old partner failed to
work, principally for the reason that
he was given Uncle Jim as partner
the latter receiving instructions to
get beaten. Had Uncle Jim been told
to win the trick might have worked.
Col. E. R. Thomson, Of North Main
has invited number of friends to
an affair at his home Thursday even
ing, at which all of them will be pres
ent. There continues to be rumors
and then rumors of other impending
parties. Major Fulp's boys say he
got in a turkey Saturday $13.65 G.
O. D., and that "papa is going to
give big party" which caused all
admiring friends to sit up and take
notice.
Nearly everybody misses Corp
Kerr at the fine dinners we are hav,
ing except the gentlemen who are
giving them.
Col. w. S. Cothran was over IN
the business section early Monday
morning. He was exhibiting to a few
of the best players the following
communication.
Col. w. S. Cothran
City.
Dear fellow citizens:- Please lay
aside business long enough Monday
morning to ride over to Dale Barks-
dale's house. 1 wish you to go on the
South side Of the house and select a
good place for Uncle Jim and the
writer to "tack up" the hides of
Jack Perrin ahd Daley.
Yours,
Patrick Roche.
Col. Cothran told us that his busi-
ness over town was to look after this
matter for his old friend, but when
he arrived at Col. Barksdal's he
found so many setback hides, includ-
ing Pats and Uncle Jim's already
tackled up on that side Of the house,
that he could not find a suitable
place for the others. He therefore
resigned his commission.

MEASURES WILL CO
ON SEPARATE BALLOT
tcontinued on page 81

SALEM. April Measures to be
submitted to the voters of oregon at
the sepcial election to be held on May
81 are to be printed on separate bal
lots and not on the regular primary
nominating ballot. according to a legal
opinion given by Attorney General
Brown here today.
This is necessary. according to the
attorney general. for the reason that
only the republican and democratic
parties are represented at the pri-
maries and persons of other political
affiliation would be deprived of their
right to vote on the measures.
The opinion was given following re-
ceipt OF Inquiries from many district
attorneys of the state.
