One who "Makes no Bones" Abont his Methods Tells how to Win. Short cut to 1'oUHcal Success Some "Freh" Advice. Mr. Editer: I ain't no writer worth speaking of and like as not Iaintuearas smart as you. But sure as you live I can show you a wrinkle or two about running a newspaper. You don't know how Leastwise not hero in Salem. Per haps you arc young and green and haven't traveled and got experience like older men. I'm talking about a campaign paper, you understand. What you've got to do is to make your side win. The main thing is to beat them other fellows. Well, you're not half rabid enough to do that. Take an old stager's advice and keep your eye solely onto tho party and the postoillces. Don't waste too much time a reasoning. Call tho other fellows donkeys, fools and Ignorant, and lay it on thick. Don't you ever allow that your political enemies has got a lick of sense. And tho worst thing you could do is to admit that any party but yourn ever had a spark of patriotism. If I was in your shoes I'd niako people believo that everybody as differed with mo on protection wanted to shut up every mill and workshop in the country and sell the United States to Great Britain for so much lump sum. I'd keep hammering away on that string till people would believo that the other side wasn't American citizens and didn't mean to let their own ilesh and blodd have a chance to earn a crust of bread nor a colored shirt nor a calico dress. If that didn't do you bet I'd pile it on so thick it woidd soon appear they wasn't hardly human beings. I mean them democrats and prohis and labor fellows and American party. Why don't you glvo Belva Lockwood jess and then make be lieve all tho other parties is just as cranky? Tho trouble with you is you kind of allow that there's some thing might bo paid on tho other side. That won't never do. That is if your bound to win, anyhow. And I see you sometimes give tho news about tho other parties as if thev had any standing or rights. Take my word for it you'll never win on that layout. Club'em, whack'eni over tho head, bully rag'em, sneer at 'cm. Don't give 'em any show, keep the dust ilylng all the time so they can't seo clear. Even supposing there Is anything to bo said on tho other side, don't you ever admit it. Keep only your own side before tho public and yell's loud as you can. If tho other chaps has got any virtues or sense its time enough to admit it afterwards if they should happen to get elected. But they won't if you'll bo guided by me. Don't givo away a single thing under tho Idea of being candid and fair. All's fair in war and politics. Nobody In Ids own party expects you to bo fair nor over particular about truth in a red hot campaign like this where we've got to win or bo busted. Independence does very woll between olections. Then I admire it myself but thero's no time nor use for it now. I suppose you've got all shades of politics among your readers but they've got no right to oxpect you'll give more than ono kind of news or argument. And if they can't stand it to bo atiuseu and called a lot of asses and deadly enemies to the masses, that sounds iiko poetry, why what do they hike your paper for? So no more from yours for victory at the polls, Jack Blunt. I'UNKIN'VILI.K, August 15th. - Going to Itoston. A few friends dropped in at Mrs. Leo. Willis' rosidoncu, last night, knowing that Miss Leona's depart ure to New England conservatory of iiuwic, Boston, is drawing near. Music and social converse beguiled away a pleasant hour.

To the initia ted enthiwlat there always apjear unreached height and distant-) leading towards the goal never fully ualiiwl.

A meeting of the Y's is called for Saturday, Aug. 18th, at 3 p. m., at the residence of Prof. P,arviu. All tho members arorequcstcd'to attend. t John G. Wright's ean be seen some large, smooth, tully ripe tomatoes from across tho river in Polk county . California could not excel them. There was a big attendance at tho ice cream and cake social at the Good Templars' Lodge last Saturday night. Regular meeting every Sat urday night. Capt. Scott has abandoned the primitive method of locomotion known as "shanks' pony" in de livering mail matter outside of the business streets, and drives a light horse and cart. Printers and photographers will do well to go slow -about tilling or ders for printing and pictures for a youth about 10 years old, who ten ders in payment orders on Sells Bros, of the circus. He is a fraud. This paper lias decided temperance leanings, but it docs not hesitate to advertise and commend the free cool drinks to bo had at the pumps opposite the grange store, on State street, and at T. M. Wade & Co's warehouse on Court street. The temperance people of Watson ville, Cai.. are petitioning tho Board of Trustees to call an election at which it may by votobo determined whether tho saloons of that town shall bo closed or remain open. This eifort of local option lias tho sup port of many leading citizens. The supreme court has decided tlds method constitutional. A Iii-ncllccnt Institution. On tho 6th of September tho school for the instruction and board ing of deaf mutes will bo re-opened In Salem, under the superintendence of llev. P. S. Knight, who has been In charge for seventeen years. Mr. Knight very reasonably thinks that tlio time lias fully come for putting tho school on a basis commensurate with tho prospective or rather assured growth of tills state. The buildings aro inadequate, tho grounds too small and the sewerage defective or really next to nothing. As adjoining land that could have been obtained a short time since at low figures has now risen in price beyond what the state Is likely to caro to givo for it, tho institution may have to be re-located. Mr. Knight has long planned to make the school distinctively an industrial one nnd will now press that feature more than ever upon tho attention of tho next legislature. Ho should bo seconded by all who feel an in terest in tills work. Certainly those who aro cut oil' from easy communication with society nood to be helped to some manual means of obtaining a livelihood. And the deaf muto being necessarily very qulok with eye and hand would soon becomo oxpert when blesed with ordinary aptness and careful instruction. Already a start has been mado in broom making. It Is believed that the next legislature will oontain a fair proportion of broad minded, buius men of philanthropic instincts who will In telligently Investigate tho subject and heoure ample appropriatieu for the needs of this school. CatkllSrTli. Yesterday being a feast day of the Catholic chucli, the feast of Un Assumption of the Mother of Christ, son-Ices were held all day Just as on Sunday.
