Now that a complete and satisfactory as well as a harmonious union of forceB has been consumated let evervone who believes in the reforms laid do'wn in our platform, put his shoulder to the wheel and help elect the entire union ticket. We have put up as clean a ticket as was ever nominated in this or any other county and voters can have no fear but that when elected the officials will eive a good economical adminiatrutmn nf county affairs. The union legislative candidates com pare very favorably with the republican and if elected will go to Salem next winter and vote for a silver man for U. S. senator instead of a gold standard man, which the republicans are pledged to support. They will also work for all the reform measures Unit, tlm iir,u demandinir. In nominating the union candidates there was not that strife, which predom inated in the republican convention, nor was the ticket a cut-and-dried affair as was the republican, which was named by the Oregon City political ring. ine repuoucan e. invention was con -tioiiei by lirownell until he was nomin ated for senator, when he immediately left, and turned everything over to li s well-drilled lieutenants, who succeeded 111 having the entire slate, with ception, nominated.
