A Mk (lmnoiiHtration and rutication wan lii'M in thl city laxt Friday night to celtibrale Mi;Kinley'n election tu the prexiilenry. The niulit waa coll and rain lull be (urn tho mrailo was ended, but that only wtrved lo ald zeal to the ratillera, who were loudly cheered as they iiaawxl thruiigli the atreela. The iro:eaiion, under the direction of Jaa. V. Campbell, chief marahal, with Cliaa. Albright and Clark Greenman, aide, wai headed by the band, followed bv car riage containing Major Thomas Char man, Hon. W. C. Johnson ani Itev. (iilruan Parker, drawn by tour cpirited I horaei driven by Cbaa. Noblitt. This waa followed In turn by the Union Veter I ana league, the McKinley and Hobart ! league and a mounted brigade from Lo 'gun. A ateam engine liilprovioed into t calliope was a (eature of the parade. The line of march was ablaze wttli rouian candles and red fire, wuile skyrockets filled the air. The buninesr houses and residences along the line of march were pretty generally decorated. After the parade as many as could get inside the building repaired to Wein hard's hall to listen to the speakers of the evening. The stage had been band soinely decorated by the ladies with flags and bunting, with a large picture of Mc Kinley in the center. On the roe 'rum were seated A. S. Dresser, piesident of I tie McKinley and Hobart league, Capt. J. T. Apperson, Hon. W. C. Johnson, Major Thos. Charman, lie v. Oilman Parker, Dietrict Attorney T.J.CIeeton and Hon. II. L. Kelley. After a few choice selections by the Oregon City band, President Dresser ad vanced to the front and said, "Ladies and Gentlemen: You are all feeling well this evening. I am glad we have a man to take charve of this nation w ho has hiore than one idea. We are here to night to celebrate, not to hear long sieechas. We want short speeches and a chance to yell, and any man who talks longer than Ave minutes will be knocked dow n with a club." I At this point one of the McKinley Union Yeternas arose and said I he most approprirte thing at that moment was "Marching Through Georgia" by the band It was played spiritedly, some of the old veterans sinking an accompani ment. This received hearty and merited applause. President Dresser then intro duced Hen. II. L. Kelley, a life long democrat, ne was enthusiastically ie ceived. Mr. Kelley sniJ: "For the Grst time in my life I haye witnessed sound money democrats, republicans and populists re joicing tog'ther over an-election. We haye achieved the victory by united ef fort. We have vindicated law and or der and have buiied anarchy so deep it will never be resui reeled. Democrats have stood shoulder to shoulder with you republicans to accomplish this." In clos ing Mr. Kelley said, "I want to say to you republicans, that on the laritr and some other issues we will figbt you every day in the week, fight you until the crack j oi doom, out when the country is in danger we will stand with you shoulder to shoulder to the end." Major Charman was r ow called out on behalf of the old.titne republicans, be cause the Major was a republican when it cost something to stand up for repub licamsm. He said : "It was very far from my idea to talk to you to night, but come before you with good news. We carried Clackamas county; but that is not all, we have carried Oregon ; and that is not all, we have carried the Unit ed States. We have great cause for re joicing in that we have succeeded in placing that man (pointing to the pic ture of McKinley) at the head of this government." Mr. Charman went on to tell how business enterprises would be encouraged and started again because the United States had declared in no un certain way for sound money and protec tion. He was frequently interrupted with applause, showing that his remarks had the right ring and were July appre ciated by the audience. Captain Apperson was called out on behalf of the .McKinley Union Veterans audience and n'l gratification over the election of to town very .iciuniey. emhuxiaHlii; cull from the aii: "An ow laoy earne to town veryi- early on the morniinr after the election. Dr. C. B. Smith, of Eagle creek, sail She had not heard how it had gone and ) i,e heeii called tho Mark IJanna, A in order to find out she accosted a small j a'0 He axked the audience In boy. 'Sonny, who's elected?' 'I don't j closing, to give three cheera for Wm. know,' said the boy, 'but I think tlie I McKinley and Mark Hanna, of Ohio. American are ahead.' My first vote wan cast for that eminent statesman and patriot, Abraham Lincoln. My last vote was cast for another patriot apd old com rade in the war, Win. McKinley, I con sider the questions involved in the re cent election as iinpoiiant and vital as those of !J1." Mr. Parker then went on to predict an era of g'Kid times, peace and plenty, District Attorney Cleeton responded gracefully to the continued calls from the audience. He said: "This is about the happiest looking crowd I ever bad ties pleasure of addressing. You look so bappy it makes me smile to look into your faces. You are bappy because the result of this election is going to benefit you all. You are entitled to the good it will bring yorj. You have won the vic tory by loyal, manly effort. I say fellow citizens, all of you, I am proud that lam an American. It has been demonstrat ed, by the result of this election, that the American people are capable of self government. Americanism is above party politics. The people of these Unit ed States have spoken and spoken loud enough to be beard around the world ; hut that is not all. Oregon bos spoken and spoken loud enough to be heard throughout the United Stajes; and that is not all, old Clackamas county has spo ken and spoken loud enough to be heard throughout the state. The United States are in line with sound money and Mc Kinley ; Orefron is in line with the na tion, sound money and McKin'ey; and Clackamas county is in line with Oregon, tbe nation, sound money and McKinley. Eyen the populist, though sad and long visaged at first, can smile now because the mask of anarchy and hypocrisy has been torn from the face of the wearer. This is no partivan victory, but a victory of the people." ' Hon. Geo. C. Brownell finally yielded to the importunity of the crowd and said : "I don't know whether I can make a speech or not. This has been a wonder ful, a magnificent victory. We are all citizens and patriots bere to-night. I thank God that republicans and demo crats have joined hands and and achievd the victory. When Lincoln was lying dad and the mob in the street swayed to and fro, frenzied with passion. James A. Garfield stood with uplifted bands before heaven, in the presence of the throng, and said: 'The government at Washington still lives and God still reigns.' To-night I can look at the pic ture of McKinley and exclaim, the government at Washington still lives and God still reigns. This victory means better citizenship. We must teach our cnildren patriotism, integrity and hon esty. We must never iorget the loyal, patriotic democrats, who have stood by us so nobly in this contest. When they tired upon Fort Sumptar, Stephen A. Douglas said to President Lincoln: 'A moment ago I was a democrat, now I am a patriot.' I vnt to say just one word more amen !" Senator Brownell's re marks were fairly punctuated with ap plause. Hon. W. C. Johnson, one of the old time republican standard bearers, said : "One phase of this question we have not considered. When the band was plav- ing 'Marching Through Georgia,' some of us locked back into the past, but I took it for an omen of good for tbe fu ture. We have been electing congress men south of Mason and Dixon's line. We are a united people, old-time preju dice and bitterness are dying out.' Mr. Johnson said that poor health had com pelled him to refrain from public speak ing for some years past but that to-night he could not resist the call, as it came to bim just as he was retiring for tbe night. He was accorded a hearty reception. J. U.Campbell said it was not so much a republican victory as it was a victory tor tbe people at large, He ad monished republicans to prove true to their trust if they would perpetuate the victory. C. F. Clark, one of the best known farmers of Clackamas, said: "Barnuiu said the American people like to be humbugged. He should have qualified it by saying, when they pay for it. But when we have a baby elephant going all over this land appealing to the American people from the rear platform of a Pul- inun car for their votes, they refuse to be humbugged and they have not been humbugged." Mr. Clark closed his league, and when the applause had sub sided, said : "I want to say to you that speech with a glowing tribute to the lion we return our heartfelt thanks to the la-1 est, integrity and patriotism of Wm They were givan with a will that almost raised the roof. Jack W. .Vtoffit, one of the Willamette paper mill bovs, said democrats and pop ulists had learned they were mistaken on the money question. Now that tho victory was over he advised the young men to rustle around and find something I to do. No one ever accomplished any thing or achieved success in any line; ' without determined, persistent effort. At this juncture in tbe proceedings an old battle-scarred hero, whose name we did not learn, elbowed bis way through the crowd to the rostrum and feelingly expressed his gratitude for the election ol McKinley. After singing "America" and giving; three cheers and a tiger for tbe next president, tbe meeting closed. MOTES. The McKinley Union Yeterns' league occupied reserved seats in tbe center of the bouse. The Extsbprise office was handsomely decorated with flags, bunting ond Japa nese lanterns. Main street was lined with people from one end to the other, enthusiastically cheering the marching columns. After witnessing the demonstration last Friday night tbe populists, who have been wondering "where they are at," can see where tbe majority for McKinley come from in this county. J. Koake, of the Oregon City Iron works, transformed the ' steam engine into a calliope and was assisted in Ite operation by Henry Harris and John Duffy. The cannon that roared from the hillside was also made by Mr. Roake. He says they can make whistles and guns at Uie iron works any way. The employees of the woolen mills, one hondered strong, showed their apr preciation of the result of the election, by parading np and down Main street as. soon as the result was known. Messrs.'' Jacobs knew nothing of the contemplat ed parade and came into the mill only ten minutes before the hands started but of course they appreciated the patriot ism of their employees. In tbe evening the floor of the finishing room was cleared and a grand ball indulged in, tbe whole affair ending with refreshments. River Jiotes. The heavy rains of the past week have I brought the river up to a good boating stage, and steamboat men are corre spondingly happy. At the O. R. A X. Co. 's wharf in this city last Wednesday noon, the upper river registered 9.6 feet above low water mark and tbe lower river 16.2 feet and it was practically at a standstill, River traffic is on the in crease. The O. R. A X, Co. are running the Gypsy, Modoc and Elmore, while the Ruth, which has been undergoing repairs, will be put on Saturday. The O. C. T. Co. are running the Altona and Raniona as far up the river as Indepen dence, giving a boat each way every day. The fare has been slightly advanced and is now $1 from Oregon City to Salem, and is the same on both lines. The Mathloma is the name of a new government snag boat recently built by Capt. W. L. Ftske, United States engi neer, for use on the rivers in this region. The name'"Mathloma" is said to be tha name given to the Willamette nver, or a portion of it, by a tribe of Indians which once lived in the upper part of the vat ley. Of her the Or, gonian says : "The trial trip was very satisfactory, she hay ing run from the steel bridge to the dock at St. John's, a distance of six miles, in 31 minutes, or at a rate of a little oyer miles per hour. She is 135 feet in length, is 33 feet in width amidships and four feet depth of hold. She is strongly built and has five longitudinal bulk heads, a frame thirty-five, feet high, steam capstans and hoisting engines, 10x12 double cylinder, and, when she takes hold of a snag, it hag to come or the bottom will be pulled out of the river."

Oilman Parker responded to an McKinley, and took his seat amid a per fect storm of applause. Chas. Holman, state central commit teeman for this county, said he felt some misgivings at first, was afraid the Amer ican people would prove incapable of self government, but the result of this election had reassured him.
