Don't fail to see the splendid iremium offer mndo by The fraternal Brothorhood in Or- mandy Bros.' window, consist- pg of solid waxed oak dining table and chairs, to be given to the member securing the largest number of now members. Tho immense ballot this year will keep the voters guessing, especially so in regard to the various measures submitted. It is safe to predict that very few of the measures will carry. What the state needs is fewer nws better enforced. Special evangelistic meetings are being held nt the Christian church, Rov. Williams having charge of tho meetings.

Local , agents will have tho new rating given them in a few days, if they have not already received them. It is announced that the Pan ama Pacific Exposition could he opened by Christmas instead of February, owing to the fact that tho buildings and other ar rangements will practically be complete by that time. An effort is being made to have the reduced railroad fare rates to the Exposition still further reduced. The rate from New York to San Francisco for the round trip will probably be less than $65. St. Johns Lodge No. 545 of The Fraternal Brotherhood very pleasantly surprised their presi dent, Mrs. Haute AicKinney, on Thursday evening.

David Byerlce. formerly a member of the Review force, but now located at Ccntrnlia, Wash., was a guest of relatives and friends hero Sunday. He is employed on the Daily Hub, be ing one of its most eilicient nnd artistic printers. A committee consisting of O. J. Gatzmyer, A. W. Marklc and C. A. Fry. appointed by Presi dent Couch of the Commercial club to report on the Docks and Wharves bills, made an adverse report Tuesday afternoon. Dr. Chester G. Hall nnd D. Edward A. Noyes hnvo united as a firm and have taken over the business of Dr. DeVaul of Portsmouth, who will go to California for his health. They will operate an office at Arbor Lodge and Portsmouth. Cnrl Stono died nt the St. Vin cent's hospital at 11 o'clock Tues day night, aged about 21 years. He was a son of the Into A. S. Stone of St. Johns, and unmar ried. Ho had been employed by the S.

Tho proposed routing of tho St. Johns cars via Second street instead of Fifth, as now obtains, is meeting with a storm of pro test from tho St. Johns citizens, as it would take, from seven to ten minutes longer in making tho trip. The chances nro that tho chango will not be made. Tho Commercial Club is cs- necinllv active in remonstrating and protesting against it. Whether or not Crook county is to bo divided up into two or throe counties will be decided at tho coming election. There is a proposition to take off a part of tho present county to bo call ed Deschutes county, nnd an other part to bo called Jefferson county. If tho division is mado at this time tho two new coun ties will start life with few in habitants but entirely free from debt. One renson why cnpital pun ishment should bo abolished in Oregon is becnuso under tho jury system in America many n man has uecn put to uentii noi becnuso tho twelve men nil really agreed with tho decision, but because ono or two or moro of them were brow beaten or coerced into agreement by other jurors, or a dislike to stay in tho jury room for an extended or indefinite period. Tho death penalty is only a relic of a by gone and dark age, and should bo abolished. A pleasant birthdny party was enjoyed by James R. Chnney at his homo on Tuesday afternoon, October 27, in honor of his fifth birthday. All present seemed to enjoy themselves immensely. Those present were Helen Dun bar, Charles Chaney, Zotn and Alice Harrington, Alice Mono han, Margaret Lewis, Pearl and Alma Muck, Hubert Hemming, Normn and Harold Seal, V'Ana Saylor, Ellen and Laura Norene, Frank and James Chaney; also Mesdames G. W. Dunbar, Mar guerite Buery, C. R. Chaney, C. J. Seal. W. E. Harrington nnd W. J. Chaney. Vote for D. C. Lewis for state representative. If we can put Langguth in the senate and Lewis in the house, wo will be sure to have two friends at court who will look after the interests of th s section. In Mr. Lewis we have a man whose interests are especially identified with ours. He is the only repre sentative from this part of tho county. Let us see if we can not make his vote unanimous. He is a republican but the demo crats laid aside party distinc tions at the primary, and thus gave him a double nomination. His home is in St. Johns, mak ing his interests our interests for he can do nothing for his own home without helping Linn- ton. His number on the ballot is 75.

A sneaker on tho street cor ner Monday night Hinted that the Democratic party camo into power when tho country was at high tido in the wny of pros perity. Too bad tho people did not know that. Tlioy belioved it to be at low tide in 1012 and voted for n chango in ndmin- strnt on. It s too bad entire y that this information wns not given out sooner. Of great interest to Portland and incidentally to tho entiro state was tho visit last Friday of tho traveling passenger agents of tho Canadian Pacific Railroad, when they were entertnined by the Portland Commercial Club. These men are looking ovor tho territory preliminary to fixing the r rates for tho tourist travel to the coast next year. Every passenger going to tho ban Francisco Exposition by way of 1. 1 it 1 ...Til cue uanauian roau win pitsa through Oregon, and it is hoped that a larce percentage of them may be induced to remain for some little time in the state. J. E. Williams, candidate to succeed himself as Justice of tho Peace, has been a resident of St. Johns for a number of years. and has been interested in the city's growth and development ever since locating here. He is a man of broad intelligence, fine judgment and is well fitted to dispense the duties of his office in a careful and competent man ner. While ho may have mado some mistakes since taking his oath of office, yet he has ever tried to do his duty as he saw it. He is ever as merciful in his decisions as a sense of justico would permit. He has been nominated by the Republican. Democratic and Progressive par ties and, therefore, has friends in all political parties. 'Iheposi tion suits him and he suits tho position. His number on the ballot is 140. itl-IIS BUSY BANK PENINSULA NATIONAL BANK Phtkk Autzkn, President John N. Uulhi'sun, Cashier 40 ON SAVINGS o SAKIvTY DKl'OSIT The wood pile is beginning to disappear with more regretnblo rapidity. One St. Johns citizen lost his bearings a little Tuesday when ho hastened to tho office of the chief of police to find out where ho could vote on the recall. Mrs. Chas. A. Boyd entertnin ed tho. Debonuir Club nt her limiflumun linmo on Muchannn street Thursdny of last week. A tine lunch was served aim an enjoyed tho event very much. At the second party given by the I. O. O.

'I'lin (iiinntlon lin't ofton boon nsked when rejection of capital punishment is uphold: "Would you not want a man hung if ho killed your boy?" Another question just us pertinent is: Mr vnni' hnv minimi, in 11 II! 01 passion, kill a man, would you wnnt him hanged?" Think it over it works both wnys. Every murderer Ib somebody's boy, remember. A rather amusimr occurrence hnppened in Sunday's Ore irnninn. It published a lonir urticlo in an endeavor to sliow that Laflerty had belittled the administration's nolicv in Mcxi can nffnirs. As a matter of fact the Oreironinu lias been doimr that very thing right along. If it was a had thing for Lafl'orty to do, how about tho Oregonian? People in giaxH iioukoh hiiouki not throw- Htonea. J. M. Swishor, Republican Progressive candidate to Biicceed himself as Constable in tho St. Johns district, lias filled the ofllco honorably and well for tho past year, when no ib sent out to got a man ho gets mm u any man could, yet ho doos it in tho least offonsive or officious way. Ho is a good officer; in fact it would ho practically an impos sibility to Bocuro a bottor ono. And if Mr. SwUhur is rooluctod Constable the people may rout nx- ssured that they could not have mndo a bottor choice. His num ber on tho ballot is 143. H. M. Waldrof, independent enndidnte for Justice of the Peace, is present city council man. Ho was a member of this body Inst yoar and tho voters liked his manner of serving tho nubl c bo well that thoy rooloct ed him again by a handsomo vote. Ho has served much in public life horetoforo and was Justico of tho Poaco in his form er homo town for a number of years. Mr. Waldrof is a man, who can be depended upon to do his full duty in whatovor capacity he may servo, Ho is a man who is conscientious, care ful, has good judgment nnd is thoroughly reliable. If elected Justice of tho Peaco ho can bo depended upon to give faithful and efficient sorvice. His num ber on tho ballot is 139. Hon. A. W. Lnfferty spoko at tho Peninsula bank corner Wed nesday evening to a fair sized crowd of listeners. Ho camo out hero rather unexpectedly, nnd the event not being well adver tised, few of his friends know of his coming. Laflerty has be come a finished orator with a distinct and pleasing voico and convincing manner. He speaks right out from tho shoulder, let the chips fall where they may. His refusal to truckle to big business has lost him thoir sup port and incurred thoir enmity, and it is from tho common peo ple in whoso interests ho is laboring that his election must come. Ho is tho champion of the common people, and thoy will send him back to Washing ton to longer represent them in the admirable stylo lie JlBS been pursuing. s not too busy to accept your account even if your affairs arc not of large di mensions.

We have a notion that the familinr line. "Shnko Before Taking," first appeared on a bot tle of ague medicine. Still there nrc many flies to Bwnt, and they should bo swat ted. Don't let any of thorn go to seed. Maybe an ofllco is "tho gift of the people." but tho fellow who gets one has to work liko sixty for it. Tho woolen mills has a most interesting display at the Manu facturers' and Land Products Show in Portland. Geo. M. Hull has opened up u barbershop in tho Bicknnr build ing on North Jersey Btreet, in tho room occupied by Gntton's Transfer Co. Tomorrow night will bo Hal loween nnd tho youngsters will no doubt bo in their glory. Pumpkin pies, cider and red apples wlil also have their inning. Tho Bachelor Club gavo a do-, lightftil danco in the skating rink Inst Friday evening. Tho nttondnuc.' was largo and nil onjoyed tho event immensely. Rudd's orchotitrn furnished tho music. R. L.

Tho piano was scorch ed to somo extent nnd tho carpet damaged, tiio total damage not exceeding ?50. Hereafter lowioim in fancy work nt Couch & Co. 'a store will be arranged so Hint on Tuodnys from 3:30 to 5 p. in. children only will bo taught. On Thurs days from 2:30 to 5 p. m. Ios sons will be givon to tho Indies only. These lessons nro proving most popular with tho lominino elomont of our city, and moro are sooking lowsons than can vory well bo accommodated, hence the urrangemont as above stated. Frank Clark, Democratic can didate for tho ofllco of Con stable, St. Johns district, lias for a number of years boon n business man of St. Johns, and is at present conducting a first class and attractive store on South Jersey street. He is well known by the great majority of our citizens, nnd is fully capablo of making a good, efficient Con stable. His number on tho bal lot is 142. Tho recall in Portland was a fizzle Tuesday, as it well should have been. The Mayor and Com missioners have been doing tho best they know in all probability, and will profit in the future from any mistakes thoy have mndo in the past, and then there was no assurance that tho as pirants for tho offices to be mado vacant by tho recall would prove any more efficient. Tho rocall should bo invoked only as a last resort. It was entirely uncalled for in tho instance in question,
