A very pretty informal wedding oc curred at the Evangelical church of Ore gon City, on Sunday morning, April 8, at 8 o'clock, when Miss Minnie Harring ton, daughter ot Mr. and Mrs. Ed-vard Hairington, of Oregon City, was united in marriage to Mr. John S. Copley, of San Francisco, by Rev. 8. Copley, uncle of the groom. The altar was prettily decorated for the occasion with flowers and potted plants. Promptly at 8:30o'clock,to the strains of Lohengrin's Wedding March, played by Miss Pearl Copley, the bridal party p:ssscd up the aisle, led by the little ring bearer, Wava Harrington. They were met at the altar by the minister, who, with an impressive ceremony ,soon joined two hearts as one. . After congratulations, Mr. and Mrsv Copley entered a carriage and were driven to 8th Btreet, where, amidst showers of rice, they boarded the car for Portland, from whence they departed on the 11:15 train for Seattle. A short time having been spent there and at Victoria, thoy will goby water to San Francisco. The bride looked charming in a travel ing suit of delicate pearl gray ith pink silk waist and white chiffon tie, with hat and gloves to match. They were the recipients of many beautiful and useful presents. Miss Harrington graduated at the Monmouth normal school iu 1395, and has since been one of Clackamas coun ty's most successful teachers.

Anotlier of L. L. Porter's Dirty Jobs. The republican county convention, as all remember, paseed a resolution in dorsing A. S. Dresser for joint repre sentative with Multnomah county, and also one agreeing' to give the county printing to the lowest bidder. Porter, being past master in knavery and fear ing the county commissioners to be elected will be stubbornly honest, has been promised the contract, for two years' printing (remember, the tax pay ers to pay Porter for his dirty work) if he will down Dresser and secure the nomi nation of R. Scott in his stead for repre sentative. , For the last two days Porter has been working teeth and toenail trying to de liver the goods for Scott. Does Porter or Scott think they are the whole county and the whole board? We are satisfied the other members of the board are up right and men of sense, and would not permit such a trade if they knew the promises of Scott. This goes to show, as the Courier- Herald has always said, that Porter will not do anything that is fair. He evi dently believes that trickery and decep tion form the golden rule of business dealings. New walking hats and sailors opened. Miss Goldsmith. just School Report.
