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

beautiful and useful presents.

Monmouth normal school iu 1395, and

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.
