SAN FRANCISCO, May S. Returns
from Tuesday's primary election show
u decisive victory for the Lincoln
Roosevelt League over the machine
forces directed by William F. Herri it of
the Southern Pacific eoimciuv. .
With H'A uf the it delegates from San
Francisco, a clean sweep in Fresno and
the San Jnnquiu valley, a majority of
nearly three to one of the delegates
from Alameda county, a majority in
Los Angeles county and an 11 to 5 vic
tory in Sacramento, the Lincoln-Roose
velt league was overwhelmingly tn-
umphant in all the Southern Pacific
machine strongholds.
Estimates based on the returns from
smaller districts, whore the league won !
its fight for delegates, and on the per
sonnel of delegations from counties in
which the league had not perfected or
ganization, or in which primury elec
tions were not held, indicate that league
forces will control the state convention.
Thoro are at least 20 delegates defi
nitely on the side of the league. Added
to these are some 50 who are in divided
delegations and more than SO whit are
from neutral counties, unpledged aud
unaffiliated.

CENTRAL POINT NEWS.
(From the Herald.)
Judge Dunn went through town last
Friday on his wny to Eagle Point. The
judge shows that he is gam by risking
his lifo and limbs on Jackson county
roads and bridges, even when hunting
votes for the June election. Tt is said
that the Bear creek bridge trembled
more violently than usual when he
crossed it, but at last accounts the
struct uro was still standing. j
Fred Parker, the popular S. P. agent i
at this place, was taken with a fainting
spell on the street last Monday and fell
to the ground. He soon recovered,
how ver, and was ablo to look after the i
depot business until another man came j
to relieve him Wednesday morning. !
Fred Mahn, who was recently trans- j
f erred from here to Shedd, was sent I
back to take Mr. Parker's placo while j
he enjoys a vacation for a few days, i
Mr. Parker seems to bo a victim of i
overwork, as during the hist two months
tho business at this place has been ;
more than the business of any four j
mouths iu the historv of the station. 1
Now that Central Point has a marshal 1
on salary, who will devote his entire
time to looking after the peace and
well-being of the city, it is to be ex i
pected that the rowdyism and drunken- 1
ness that has been so prevalent lately J
will be stopped. The town lockup has
been put iu good condition for tho ae-!
oinoiodation of guests and the mavor
and all other city officials aro standing
squarely behind the marshal ami re
order in the enforcement of law and t
tho suppression of rowdyism and hood-'
lumism. And it is time something was
dono. Whon young boys are brought '
home completely paralyzed from h:id i
booze; when ball games are interfered !
wilh by drunken men and boys, ami ;
when bootleggers and jug lines flourish!
as they seem to here, it is time some- I
thing was dune to stop these practices.
Friends of G. (I. Selby of this eity
wero shocked and grieved by the re-i
ceipt- of a telegram from Mrs. Selby
last Saturday evening announcing the!
death of her husband, which occurred !
that day at Silver City, New Mexico.'
Mrs. Selby expected to start back here
with the body Sunday evening. No!
further details have been received and !
it is not known just when the funeral!
will be held. The Modern Woodmen,;
of which order Mr. Selby was a mem
ber, aro making all arrangements for ,
tho burial.
The matter of waterworks was dis-,
cussed informally by the city council
and an informal report of I he water 1
committee was submitted. It was the
sense of the mayor and council that a'
competent engineer be employed 1o sur- ;
vey and map the town for street grades, ,
water system, sewers, etc., and to fur- '
nisi) an estimate of cost, of water sys-1
tern. Letters from engineers with
whom the committee has been confer
ring were read and discussed and the
mayor was requested to arrange for a'
conference with engineer Cummins at '
an early dale before further action is1
taken.

"Men's Fashion Shop"
"I can't, be fitted with ready-lor-sei-v ice clothes,'" says the skeptic. Then he. goes on. ;
to tell alKnit a long waist, or long anus, or sloping shoulders, or something else, that ," '
necessitates clothes made to measure, lie thinks he's either too hig or too little tj he
properly fitted.
If such a man would take the trouhle to spend ten minutes in the Fashion Shop toinor-,
row, he will loarn his mistake. It once was impossihle for such a figure to he Pitted;
not so long ago, either. Tt is impossihle now, unless the right store is selected.
But correct fit for every man, the short, man, the tall man, the av
eraged sized man, the swagger young man, or tin; conservative
: dresser, may readily he found in the
Fashion Shop
"Men who know" invariably turn their steps toward this clever
, clothes shop. The tone and character of Fashion Shop clothes are
'making themselves felt wherever good dressers congregate and
more and more thoughtful men a re beginning to realize the fallacy
of paying extravagant prices for garments made to measure.
We are now showing an assort-ment of; the swagger Srhfoss
clothes for young men, and a rich.dignilied collect ion of clothes for
the modest dresser that are striet-ly "the" tilings for spring of 'OS.
