The Kind You Have Always Bought. In Use for Over 30 Years.
REFORMERS IN MARION
COMPARISONS BETWEEN SOME OF
THE OPPOSING CANDIDATES.
Joint Canvass of Republicans and
Fusionlsts to Besrtn Tuesday
Expected to Be Lively.
SALEM, Or., Mar 20. The joint can
vass of Marion County by the Republican
and Fusion candidates, beginning Tues
day, Is expected to give some life to the
local political situation. Thus far all haa
been quiet, and little Interest has been
taken. The Republicans have held sev
eral public meetings In various sections
of the county, where joint meetings will
not be held, but no effort has been made,
to stir up enthusiasm. The Fusionlsts
have not yet begun to work in the open,
but are doing some vigorous reconnolter
lng. Beginning tomorrow evening, when
C. "V. Fulton will discuss the political
issues from a Republican standpoint at
Salem, the campaign is expected to be
lively.
Tho present outlook Is that the oppo
sition will direct its' greatest efforts at
the Republican county ticket, for it Is
generally conceded that the Republican
Legislative ticket has a walk-over, and
efiorts to defeat It will be in vain. The
FuslonlsV will xai' on a campaign of
denunciation Bf IfvJ&bJIcan methods, and
will contend for a nonpartisan adminis
tration of county affairs. They will pose
as "reformers," and will deny to the Re
publicans any right to that title.
The. Republicans, on the other hand,
think they can point to a record that
warrants the approval of the taxpayers,
and are disposed to laugh at the at
tempt of the Fusionlsts to pose as "re
formers"' and "nonpartisans." The Re
publican candidate for County Judge is
John H- Scott, a Salem attorney, who
has never taken any part In politics and
never sat in a political convention. His
Fusion opponent is "W. W. Elder, a Stay
ton business man, who has for years been
the recognized leader of the Democratic
party in his vicinity. Charles A, Mur
phy, the Republican candidate for Sher
iff, has never been In politics before, and
never held but one office that of First
Lieutenant in Company K. Second Ore
gon Volunteers. Frank "VY". Durbin. his
v Fusion antagonist, is one of the shrewd
est Democratic politicians In the county,
and Is now making his third race for the
Shrievalty. But it Is for nonpartlsanshlp
In the office of School Superintendent
that the Fusion-sts are making the strong
est demand. They are supporting for that
office F. A. Myers, a Social Democrat,
who was two years ago a candidate for
the Legislature. The Republican canfll
date is E. T. Moores, who Is now In the
political arena for the first time.
Although the comparison of candidates
shows that the Fusionlsts are most open
to the charge of partisanship, the Repub
licans claim a still more favorable show
ing on the question of political and so
cial reform. The contest for supremacy
In the Republican convention this year
was fought out In the primaries" between
the "push" and the "anti-push." and the
latter prevailed The ticket nominated
was satisfactory to all, except perhaps a
few disappointed office-seekers. The re
sult of the Democratic convention was
much different. "So unsatisfactory was
th method of carrying on the convention
that E. Hofer, the champion of municipal
reform, said in a union committee meet
ing that, even If the Democratic party
had a strong majority In the county. Its
manner of nominating a ticket would
cauos It to be snowed under on election
day. The Populists refused, and still re
fuse, to give their approval to the Demo
cratic nominations for County Judge.
Clerk and Recorder.
Two years -ago the candidates of both
parties ran on platforms pledging a re
duction .of expenses. The Fusionlsts
elected only one" candidate, Sheriff Durbin.
At the special session of the Legislature
ft bill was passed lowering the compensa
tion of county officers and placing all on
salaries. At the regular session the fol
lowing Spring the "reform" Sheriff had
his salary raised, and provision made
whereby he could receive fees in addi
tion to his salary. The salaries of the
Republican candidates were not raised
above the schedule established at the spe
cial session.
It was notorious that two years ago
the saloon element in all parts of the
county supported the Fusion ticket. It
la a matter of wide comment today that
the same element is giving Its aid to the
Fusion ticket.
It la upon these considerations that the
Republican party In Marlon County claims
a superior right to be called the "reform
party," and to be recognized as favor
ing "nonpartlsanshlp" In county affairs.
As at present Indicated, the campaign
will be carried on along this line, and
the people will be asked to decide In favor
of the party making the best showing.

BCTCnERCD SEVEN "WHALES.
They Were Stranded on the Coast
of Tillamook County.
W. C King, of Sand Lake, writes to the
Tillamook Headlight the following story
of the killing of seven stranded whales:
On Thursday morning, the 10th, as O.
R. Chamberlain was walking along the
beach, he discovered some'black objects In
the edge of thewater, and upon approach
ing nearer he discovered that they were
whales, which had become etrandsd from
some cause or other. There were seven
of them, and they were making tremen
dous effort to get back Into deep water,
without avail. The tide was leaving them.
They would open their mouths and draw
In about a barrel of water and then spurt
It through the hole In the top of the!.
head 20 feet into the air, and lying some
times on their sides It was like getting in
the cross-fire of a hose company. Mr.
Chamberlain made tracks for home to get
his gun and a butcher knife to carve them
up. .On his return he turned loose with
his gun to kill them, but after wasting
a few shots he eavr that he could not kill
them In that way, so he sailed Into them
with his butcher knife, and stuck them
ae you would a hog. That did the work,
and be soon had seven whales strung on
the beach that were from eight to IS feet
long.
Ho as once commenced to strip the
blubber from the outside of the body and
inside the. head. The fat was cut into six
Inch strips and thrown across a horse's
back and taken home and rendered out,
which will amount to several barrels. It
has a market value, and Mr. Chamber
lain wll likely realize considerable from
It.
Aplils on Marlon Connty "Wheat.
SALEM. May 20. In order to determine,
If possible, whether there Is any founda
tion for the report that the wheat crop
Is endangered by the green aphis, several
wheat fields north of Salem were exam
ined this morning. The reports are to the
effect that the aphides are most abun
dant In lowland wheat sown In the Fall.
The wheat north of town answers this
description. In every field examined a
few aphides were found, but In no case
In alarming numbers. In the fields where
they were the least abundant, they would
average, apparently, one Insect to a dozen
stalks of wheat, and usually only one In
a place. In another field they were found
quite thick on some stalks, while other
stalks: were not infested. In th.s field
they would probably average one aphis
for every stalk of wheat. Most of tha In
sects found were fulL grown. A few fam
lles were found. Indicating that the
aphides may be expected to multiply at
this season. Farmers residing north of.
Salm say that the Fall wheat, which has
been unusually yellow this season. Is rap
idly putting on the proper grean co'or,
and promises to come out all right. The
general opinion seems to be that the yel
low color was caused by the cold rains.
The rains were not followed by excessive
ly hot weather, and It Is believed that
the wheat will get well rooted before the
ground shall dry out.

Others "Who Pass Inspection May Go
Their Way Federal and State
Officers Co-Opernte.
ASTORIA, May 20. For the first time
In the history of this port a quarantine
has been established here against ves
sels arriving from San Francisco. This
relates particularly to Chinese passengers,
as thus .far all others have, been allowed
to' pass. Both State Health' Officer Fulton
and Quarantine Officer Hastings have re
ceived official notification of the existence
of the plague at the Bay city, and, while
the latter has received no Instructions
from the department to establish an Inter
state quarantine, he deems strict pre
cautions necessary to guard against tho
possible Introduction of the disease here,
and, togetherwith the State Health Officer,
will Inspect all Incoming vessels from
; that poet and Isolate all tho Chinese pas
sengers.
The first vessel affected by the new reg
ulations was the O. R. & N. steamer
Columbia, which arrived In this morning.
She was detained In the quarantine
grounds until a thorough Inspection was
made and then allowed to come to the
dock. Two Chinese passengers were, how
ever, taken to tho Government quaran
tine station, where their baggage will be
fumigated, and they will be Held for about
10 days.
Dr. Fulton stated .today that for the
present, at least, all San Franc'sco steam
ers will be held In quarantine grounds for
inspection, but probably none of them will
be tied up for any length of time unless
there shall be sickness aboard. The Chi
nese passengers will be removed to the
quarantine station and Isolated for several
days. What action will be taken In the
future depends entirely on the reports of
the progress of the disease at San Fran
cisco. '

was mentioned, and he Is the present City
Treasurer. He was elected "unanimously,
and then the queetlon of who should be
elected Treasurer In his place was taken
up and trouble began. The- only afe m
Seaside is In Mr. Johannsen's store, and In

When the members of the Council thought
this over they decided to elect some other
man Mayor, but a lawyer present Informed
them that It would not be legal. The
meeting adjourned without electing a
Treasurer, but It Is practically decided
that Harry Bender, a clerk In 'Mayor Jo

THE PLAGUE IN SAN FRANCISCO,
Inoculation of Chinese and Japanese
It Quietly Proceedings
SAN FRANCISCO, May 20. There are no
new developments In the plague situation.
No new cases have been discovered, and
the situation remains practically un
changed. This announcement was made
by the Board of Health tonight The In
oculation of Chinese and Japanese Is
quietly going on. From unofficial sources
it is learned that eight Japanese and 11
Chinese were Inoculated with haffklne
yesterday, and 26 Japanese- and 50 Chi
nese today At all the exits of the city
doctors are stationed, and unless a Chi
nese or Japanese can exhibit a certifi
cate of inoculation he Is not permitted
to pass the city limits. The declaration
of the Board of Health that the plague
exists in the Chinese quarter of the city
hag produced no alarm outside of that
section. The chief feature of the situa
tion lies in the opposition of the Chinese
and Japanese to inoculation.
The position of the Board of Health
Is that the circumstances do not warrant
the quarantining of the Chinese district
or the compelling of its Inhabitants to
submit to Inoculation so long as they re
main In the city. Only those desiring to
leave the city are required to be Inocu
lated. The Chinese and Japanese, as a
whole, are opposed to Inoculation. They
have retained counsel to contest the mat
ter In tho courts, should the Board ot
Health resort to forcible measures.
The Chinese Consul-Qeneral stated to
night that he would take no action in th
matter until he should be more fully in
formed as to the plans of the Board of
Health, or until some development In the
situation requires him to take official no
tion. Business was suspended in .the Chi
nese quarter today, and knots of Chinese
stood on the streets discussing the situa
tion and expressing their determination
not to submit to inoculation. They said
they would rather die from the plagut
than poison.

FIXE CROPS OF CLACKAMAS."
No Failure Anyivhere, and Most Are
Above the Average.
OREGON CITY, May 20. The season is
now far enough advanced to judge pretty
accurately of the fruit and crop prospects
In Clackamas County. The Petite prunes
will yield a good crop, while the Italian
and German varieties will be short This
Is the consensus of opinion from the fruit
growing districts, and all agree that the
apple crop will be Immense, although the
bugs are reported to be bad In some
localities. Deputy County Recorder E. P.
Dedman, who has a fruit farm on the
river bank near Clackamas Station, esti
mates that he will have 500 boxes of
peaches from his young orchard, the early
mornlng fogs proving a preventive of
frost Strawberries are yielding well, and
It Is believed that there will be immense
quantities In market In a few days more.
The hay crop promises to surpass the
yield of any former seasons, while the
conditions are favorable for wheat and
oats. Some of the Fall wheat Is turning
yellow, said to be caused from the con
tinued rainy weather, but no damage Is
yet apparent
