THE 1MIIMA HIES The Fight Was Not a Very Vigorous One. TWO Tit KITS IS WlRII 0. TWO right Wi: In Ward No. 2, Where Henrj Meldrntn, Eli Maildock and L. SI. Pattt rs'iii Strove for Supremacy. J Senator Brownell will pnbably J have 100 out of the 103 votes in eon- J vention ' (.'lacks mas puts up its usual fight with the result of C. F. Clark elect- , ed as delegate. In Milwaukie precinrt a fight was , made on postinasleri-lnp with II. K. Stevens elected as delega'.e. The Republican primaries were held in ail Ihe precincts of the county Satur day and 111 most instances passed oft without a fight. Senator Browneil will have probably 100 out of the 153 votes in ihe county convention, which meets in this city next Saturday. In ward 2, Oregon City, Surveyor-General Henry Meldrnm, Ex-Sheriff Eli Maddock and L. M. Patterson put np a fight against the regular ticker, but were defeated by a vote of 4 to 1. In ward 1 and 3 there was no opKsition. So little interest was manifested in ward 1 that the polls were not opened until an hour after the time set lor voting. A heavy vote was polled in ward 2, which is Mr. Brownell'p own ward. Here it is that many of the anion labor men reside, and the vote shown tbat tbey lined up for t.ie senator. Down In Clackamas the usual fight was put up, with the result tbat Charles K. Clark was elected a delegate. Clark was a candidate for the legislature 011 the fusion ticket lust June. It is ex pected a resolution will be presented ti ibe county convention, asking that he not be allowed a seat in the convention, on account cf his opposition to the Re publican ticket at the last election. In Milwaokie precinct a fight wai made on the poatmastership. Wissing- er's friends worked against Brownell and won the primaries, though it is expect el a majority of them will be for ftrownell at the county convention. Recorder Henry E. Stevens is a delegate. In Ab- ernelhy precinct the Brownell forces won. Mr. Brownell is not a candidate fur congress, but be has never said that be would not be a candidate. From the McKlnley National Memorial Aaaociatlon.

The wording below the illustrations is as follows: "Thi certifies that has contributed to the fund for the erection of the national memorial ut Canton, Ohio, in donor of William McKinley."

The supply in the bands of Postmaster Horton is a portion of the first edition of the ce titi cates and is sent here to enable those who have not as yet contributed to do so. Parties who have already identified themselves with the movement will ie ceive souvenirs direct from the office of the association or through local commit tees. ti range Meeting.
