Tun Mississippi river lias pnsped the 30-foot danger mark at St Louis and is slill rising. Extra jirucuutions are being tuken to prevent breaks in the levees, which wouhl result in great damage. With the limit for registration only fifteen days away, less than one-half of the legal voters have vailod themselves of the oppor tunity. The registration has been extremely slow, but will likely be aster in the last two weeks. Santos Dumont is to marry the daughter ot a milliona'ro. Then lio will have plenty of moiioy to ex periment wilh airships. We sug gest that congress appoint a com mission to find au heiress for Pro fessor Lang'.ey. Uncle Sam might make n.oiioy by it. Jamks Dunn, ex-marshal of Corvullis, who was shot by Young Koady Sunday, died Monday from his wounds. The fatality of a combination of a rock less boy and bad whiskey, with an equally reck 098 companion, who urged him on, was never moro fully exemplified. Young Tumor is morally as much to blame for the taking away ot one of Corvallis' best citizens and the serious wounding of another, as is the misguided youth who paid for his crime with his life. Tim Mail has mentioned before the candidacy of C. A. Dickison of Tablo Ruck, for the Republican nomination for recorder. In onr iormor issues wo have favored Mr. IMcki-ou's anmlidiioy and at this tune we seo no reason why wo should withdraw our support. H is qualified ill every way to fill the position, lie h o always bien a Coisistont Republican. lie has given his timo and influence always for thesuppirt ol the ticket This is tho first time ho has ever asked any thinu, at the hands of tho party, and it seoms to us that recognition is duo to the younger members of tho party, of whom Mr. a certain way a representative. Fiiiknds of T. U. Ellison, of Roxy precinct, are mentioning him in connection with the Republican nomination for county commission er. Mr. tillison has neon a resi dent of Jackson county for the past nmo years, and has mauo many warm friends. Ho is a veteran of the civil war, having served from 18i.l to ISfto. He afterward settled in Kansas, where he served as as sessor, county commissioner and whs a member of the state legisla ture. He is a strong advocate of good roads. , CoMMENTiNn upon the execution of the Chicago carbarn bandits, clergyman of that city remarked: "If all were in prison who deserve to be there, there would probabU be a large increase in 'help wanted advertisements and some painful vacancies in some social and relig ious gatherings." Possibly the minister ib correct, but he hasn't discovered any thing new. In the minds of most people there is sottled conviction that others ought to be in jail who are not, and likely there is someone who thinks the same of each of us. 1 bis be ing truo, if all were in prison that deserved it, the appearance 'of things wouldn't change much, we would just have to build a wall around the whole country. Mr. Alcrritt Declines. Suvernl weeks ago The Mail an nounced the candidacy of Hon. J. W. Mcrritt for tho Republican nomination for county judge. It is with infinite regret that we must state in this issue tlint Mr. Mcrritt positively declines to allow his name to come before the con vention. Wo are doubly sorry, for we bollovn that Mr. Morritt would have bei'U easily elected, and we know he would have made an honest, capable ofllcer. ANNOUNCEMENT TO THE PUBLIC.
