the union tieket nominated on Tuesday,
which maims lor retorm in national and
state as well as in county affairs.
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

ception, nominated. The chairman.

the day.

in this county.
Slack Kamsby is opposed by many
for sheriff because he has held a' county
office two terms ami is now holding
down a government job in Portland,
aiuiougn uving in Oregon City. J J
Cooke, the other candidiito for sheriff,
is well and favorably known, being a
native of Damascus precinct, is not
an office-seeker and will no doubt be
elected.

The delegates to the republican state
convention are Urownell men and are
favorable to L. L Porter for joint sen
ator. The order of business report was
type-written and gotten up before hand
and in Rrownell's office, he knowimr
well that if he was not nominated first
lie would not be at all. The platform
