WILL VOTE FOR LEWIS FIRST CHOICE OF OREGON DEMO CRATS FOR. SECOND PLACE. Delegation From This State "Will Go to Kansas City la a. Pall ia aa Cr.r. The Oregon delegates to the National Democratic Convention will vote for Col onel Jim Hum Lewis for Vice-President. That is, their first vote will be cast that -way, as a compliment to the Wash ington man. After that the vote be longs to the strongest man before tho convention. Should David Bennett Hill develop stampeded strength .and he should decide to do the Roosevelt act at Kansas City, then Colonel Jim Ham may not get o mr,ur. ... t -- it .t. I ?f"mnla' I01." il th.erc t, "'iY""" vote of Oregon would likely fall in the line, forgetting that Colonel Lewis is a neighbor. The delegation goes instructed for Bryan, and will vote for him to a finish. The Oregon Democrats -will go to Kan sas City in style. They have arranged for a Pullman car all to themselves. Of course. It will be shared with friends who are going from this section, and the Sil ver Republicans have arranged to go with them, but the car -will be a Bryan car, and the man who does not get a berth In it now may not be able to ride to Missouri with the Oregon delegation. The car will leave here Friday night, ac cording to present plans, and there is room for only two or three now left. Th route will be over the O. R. & N., Short Line, Rio Grande "Western. Denver z Rio Grande and the Rock Island. The delegates who will be on the car are: J. O. Booth, of Grant's Pass; Charles Nlckell, of Jacksonville: R. M. Veatch, of Cottage Grove; M. A. Miller, of Leb anon; A. S. Bennett, of The Dalles, and N. A. Peery, of Portland. Dr. John "Welch and J. H. Raley have already gone. Dr. Welch Is now In New York, and hopes to get through with his business in time to be at the convention. Mr. Raley will stop In Kansas City ana prepare the way for the others. The fol lowing alternates have also gone on ahead: D. J. Fry, of Salem; J. D. Mc Klnnon, of La Grande, and W. F Butcher, of Baker City. It Is not yet known who of the Silver Republican delegates will go, but all who do will be made to feel at home. Among the friends of the delegates w ho have taken berths In the sleeper are C. R. Thompson, of Astoria; "William Poll man and Nat Cooper, of Baker City. Mr. and Mrs. H. T. Hill, of Prlnevllle, will also probably be in the party. Next to the Vice-Presidential contest, the thing that will interest the Oregon lans most is the selection of a National committeeman. At present Judge Town send, of Polk County, fills that place, and he Is said to be willing, even anxious, to fill It for another term, but there are others who want the place. M. A. Miller is said to be putting forth some lively efforts, and there are good Democrats in Portland who predict that he will be the next National committeeman from Ore gon. It is said that he already has some pledges, and that enough are In sight to pull him through. In addition to theso two candidates, there are several others who would be willing to undertake the work, and there will probably be soma lively hustling done among the delegates when this selection comes up. It Is not clear, from talking to the delegates what will be done in the way of platform making. "When the state convention was in session a resolution was passed declaring for the Chicago platform in letter and in spirit. In whole and In part, and parenthetically for the money plank of the state Democratic, Peoples party and Sliver Republican party of 1S9S. It Is to be supposed that the delegation will stick to this text unless swept off their feet by something stronger. M. A. Miller, of Lebanon, said when questioned on the subject the other day: 'T am in favor of adopting the Consti tution of the United States and Declara tion of Independence as. tho platform. Then nominate W. JK Bryan before 12 o'clock midnight, and ratify the same the remainder of the night." WORKING IN CHINA. Some Bright Y. M. C A. 3Hea Frca America There. The Y. M. C A. people are greatly In terested in the news from China, because some of their brightest men are there. Among them are such men as D. "W. Lyons, at Pekln; R, E. Lewis, at Shang hai. Robert R. Galley, at Tien Tsln; F. S. Brockman, at Nankin, and "Walter J. Southam. at Hong Kong. Brockman and Galley are well known on the Paclflo Const. The former was In Portland about IS months ago. on his way to China, and spoke here. In fact, the Northwest pays half of the expense of keeping him there, the remainder being paid by a man who knew him and believed In him in the courtry where he was brought up. M: Galley was on the coast a few 3 cars ago with the Princeton football team which played with all of the col. leges. He was the star playeij on the Princeton team, and attracted a great deal of attention among the college men In the Northwest. He made a Y. M. C A. talk when he was here, and is remem berea by many who heard him. He is THE SEASON FOR Silks 79c For 5LO0 and JLS silks. Best selected styles and color-blend- lnCTS.

Their -work is strongly of an educational nature The reports received by the home office ,show that the Chinese are anxious to learn of the more civilized ways of the -world, whether they are all reads to accept them or not. FEW CHANGES AT CITY HALL Mast of the Present Deputies Will Be Retained. There Is considerable Inquiry ns to -what changes In the matter of -deputies are- to be made In the various departments of the city government under the new ad ministration. Mayor Rowe has not yet decided who " . ,iTt -"" "J "" ",'it: in tne Auditor s omce the same, force will be retained, and Auditor Devlin, is it understood, will appoint Captain H. U. w eicn, ot tne Oregon Buttery, as as sessment clerk, the position now held by himself. City Treasurer "Werleln has selected O. P. Miller as his assistant. It is understood that there will be no change In the office force of City En gineer Chase, but there may be some changes In the surveying parties. City Attorney Long will retain his pres ent deputies, Dunlway and Davis, and says he will need more, on account oi the large amount of business thrown on him. The Health Commissioner and Plumb ing Inspector are appointed by the Mayor, and their deputies by the Council. The present occupants of theso positions are hopeful of being retained. City Engineer Chase is ex-offlclo a member of the Board of Public "Works, and the other members will be appointed by the Mayor. AT THE COURTHOUSE. . Coveted Position ins ForcnhaclQTVcd by Dame Humor. Little information of a positive nature can be elicited concerning who will con stitute the force of deputies In county offices after July 1, but there are many pretty well-defined rumors afloat. The heads of the various departments are noncommittal, and say that the Repu llcan County Central Committee will namo the new appointees. In the Sheriff's office, Mr. N. C. Ovlatt will probably remain in charge of tax collections, and others pretty certain to be retained are Horace Thlelsen. Harry Meyer. Fred Matthews and Charles Frazler. Mr. Thlelsen is expected to be kept in his present position, chief deputy. The well-informed ones say that N. Kltz mlller will be Jailer. George Mitchell is also an aspirant for the position. Lansing Stout will he chief deputy un der J. P. Kennedy, Clerk of Circuit Court, He has held this place for six years under Clerk D. J. Moore, and previously with Henry E. Reed. His long experience In the offlco makes him a most valuable assistant. He Is In every respect com petent, and enjoys the confidence of the entlro bar, and of the Judges of the court. Others who may have deputyships In this office are J. "W. Padaock. Frank D. Hennessy, Joseph Boyce, T. D. Mc Devltt. Jr., and Daniel McGIlL It Is also reported that a place In the Sheriff's office may be found for the latter. Mrs. E. Allen. Journal clerk In Department No. 3; Miss Minnie S. Phillips, office clerk, and Miss R. Hexter. typewriter and office deputy, will probably be retained. The first two named havo been In the office about eight years each. "William Connor Is booked to be deputy under Constable Thomas MpNameo. Per sons who claim to know what they are talking about say that "W. H. Pope will remain as County Auditor, and L. D. Cole as assistant. Mr. Pope is certainly a reliable man and has given the utmost satisfaction in tho office which he has held. It was legally created by tho Legis lature four years ago. Before that time he was employed by the County Court for several years In the nominal capac ity of Auditor. Other candidates for this office are A. N. Gambell and Henry Rowe. Assessor McDonelL when he assumes the duties of his office. January 1. 1901, will appoint L. H. Maxwell as his chief deputy. James H. Roberts, who has Just resigned as clerk in the office of the Chief of Police, is said to be the choice for chief deputy with County Recorder S. C. Beach. Miss Roslyn Joseph will remain as ono of thp recording clerks, and also per haps Mrs. M. V. Russell in a like capac ity. There will probably be no changes In County Clerk Holmes department. The force comprises L. Q. Swetland. chief deputy: "William Stlmson, Cord Sengstake and Juliette Slocum. Thomas Malone ex pects a clerkship In some office, and Frank Snow and Jack Kerrigan think that they will "bo taken care of some where. In Judge Frater's court, J. L. Stuart will continue as crier, and "W. 8. Powell as bailiff. Judge CIcland will have A. "Waldman as crier. Judge Sears, BHllI, crier; S. L. Stone, bailiff. Judge George. Charles Bartell. bailiff; J.

Already the smell of burning powder from hundreds of nrcmnttirA flrwrnrVoK great fir trees beginning to grow Into arches over the streets, and an air of bus iness and energy among the members of the Fourth of July Committee, proclaims that Independence day is nearly at hand, and that it is irnlnrr tr Trio rolATnrntnr1 In Portland this year in a manner befitting a great city and a patriotic people. At its meeting last night tho com mittee listened to the rpnnrts tt tTnn Various sub-committees whfph havo hoon given the charge of tho many features or tne celebration. .AH the work Is well in hand, and each member of the com mittee is vying with the others In the determination to make his particular part of the celebration the crowning feat ure. The many beautiful floats, and the dazzling fireworks for the grand night parade havo all been arranged for. Tons of red fire will be burned, from the floats, from the streets, and in tall columns of flame from the tops of the telegraph poles, so that the line of march will be one gor goous line of pyrotechnlcal splendor. The long lines of marching soldiers and militiamen, tho rumbling gun carriages of the battery, the splendid uniforms of the many civil societies, the blare of brass bands and the roll of drum corps, will make the sceno one long to be remem bered. The committee on amusements, upon whom will depend the entertainment of the great crowds that come to Portland from surrounding towns, have an elabo rate programme In preparation, and will carry It out to the letter. The regatta of tho Portland Rowing Club will be one of tho greatest events of the kind ever held on the "Willamette. Crews from Victoria and Vancouver, B. C, will be hero to contest with tho Portland oars men, and will give some exceedlngly pretty races. Rowing races are among the most beautiful of aquatic spectacles, and there Is no doubt that the river will be crowded with gayly decorated craft of every description, and that the bridges and river banks will be lined with people. Wheelmen will have sport worth see ing In the road race which is to be given for the Storey cup, while baseball fans will find a first-class match arranged es pecially for their amusement. Besides these there will be balloon as censions, policemen's shooting contests, a sailing race, races for boys and girls, a pie-eating contest, and many other sports, all heTd where tho crowds may reach them the most easily. Tho rate of one faro for tho round trip made by all the railroads for the benefit of tho people of the cities throughout the state will no doubt be taken advantage of by thousands of people, and crowds will begin pouring into Portland the morning of the 3d, and continue till the afternoon of the Fourth. In order to carry out everything as it has been planned, and the citizens of Portland are as anxious that this bo dono as are the enterprising men who have made the celebration possible, con siderable more money must be subscribed, and now lsthe time to siihsorlh thw-i- buslness man In Portland Is eager to make mis tne most glorious of all celebrations, and there is little doubt that those who have thus far done nothing toward show ing their patriotism will find an opportun ity to do so within the next few days. There is no one who cannot elv n. mti and every little helps a great deal. There aro yet many large concerns which have not yet given anything, but it Is ex pected that all these will rt fholr nnmM on tho list before it is published, and snow mat. iney are not lacking either In patriotism or public spirit. After hearinc the norta of t7n mm. mlttees last nighty General Summers, who nas DeeaworicingUKe a Trojan to make the celebration a success, announced that there would be another lmnortnTif moot ing Thursday night. In the rooms of the committee on the sixth floor of the Cham-r ner or Commerce Tjulldlng, and requested that every member be on hand. Upon tho reports made at this meeting will de pend the exact extent of the celebration, and between now and then a hrMiiMTi effort will be made tb secure enough money so that everything can be camied out on a grand scale. "Will Address Encampment. The committee appointed to arrange for the annual encampment of tho M. a. R03S Post. G. A- R., at Pleasant Home, has been fortunate in securing Dr. L. E.

Professors for the Consolidated Dental Collccc. A meeting was hplil lnsf i-nt ? n Mulkoy building to perfect plans for the consolidation of the Oregon College of Dentistry and the North Pacific Dental College. The latter name Is to be used by the new Institution, and It will occupy" the .building at Fifteenth and Couch streets, which will accommodate a large number of students. The apparatus and paraphernal! of the schooU will be com bined, and also the faculties, which will double their teaching facilities and make a dental college which will be a credit to the city. Both Institutions were prosperous, and consolidation was not forced by any lack of pxtronagc of either, but merely with the purpose in view of making- one first class college with largely increased op portunities for usefulness In every way. Because tho North Pacific Dental Col lege Is a member of the National Asso ciation of Dental Faculties It was deemed expedient to mike use of the standing it already has obtained, and. to contlnuo the new concern under that name. The laws of Oregon require that a per son to practice dentistry In this state must have a certificate from a college which Is a member of the National Asso ciation ofPental Faculties. Tho Oregon college had applied for membership In the National Association, and would have been admitted In another year, as It takes that time to get through under tho rules after a favorable report. The North Pacific Dental College has been a mem ber of tho National Association for four years, and this explains why In the con solidation of the two colleges it was tho Dettcr course to adopt that name. Tho standing of the North Pacific College Is good, and has never In any manner been questioned; In fact, Its plant and appli ances have been of the very best. The faculty of the new Institution will be as follows: J. W. Hickman, M. D., TacOma; Norrls R. Cox. D. D. S., Her bert C. Miller. M. D.. D. D. S., S. J. Barber, D. D. S., Ernest F. Tucker, M. D-, H.

D., Port land: Everett M. Hurd, M. D., D. M. D.. Salem, and Dr. J. R. Cardwell. Portland. It Is expected that the number of stu dents this Winter, men and women, will reach at least 100. CLARK COUNTY PRUNES. Groirer Says 40 Carloads "Will Be Shipped Tliis Year. J. H. Fletcher, president of the Cured j.u.u? nwuuauuu, nog ui ruruana yes j terday, from his homo at Vancouver, an. tie ngures on carloads as Clark County's quota of dried prunes this year, though If it were not for an unpropltlous Spring the total would run up to 300 car loads. The prunes of Clark County, he says, aro mostly of the Italian variety, very few Petltes having been set out when tho orchards were planted. Mr. Fletcher says fully 75 per cent of the dried prune ortput of the North- ; wesi jus seen nieatren to ma utwrnHnn , this year, and that by next year he feels . .. va. ,v j,,,. mjhi. vt uic iauu un voted to prunes being represented. "When outside fruit men see how well tho association gets along in marketing the product in large quantities," he said, "they will nearly all be willing to Join us. Many prunegrowers are indifferent this year, as their crops have been badly damaged, and the sale of what is saved is of small consequence. These growers can afford to be Independent of any united movement this season, but we hope for a full crop of Italian prunes next year throughout the Northwest, when their sale will mean a great deal more, to the individual and the community, than this year. The efforts of the associa tion will be put forth with renewed en ergy during the Winter of 1900-190L" i REDUCED RATES EAST.

"People who own oil wells around Loi Angeles need not care whether It ever rains or not," said L. S. Read, at tht Hotel Perkins yesterday. Mr. Read was formerly a resident of Portland, but went to Jvos Angeles last year and invested, a few thousand dollars In an oil pros pect, ho says, and now he can afford to take a trip back to his old home In i Baltimore via this city. "Southern California," he declared, "is set over a big lake of petroleum, and many of our people have become rich by tapping it at various points by wells of ICO to 00 feet In depth. All you have to do Is get hold of the land, sink your well until the oil bursts forth, when ou put a cap on the top of the casing and draw the crude oil oft at your leisure, selling it on the ground for $1 a barrel; or If your company decides to sell out to the Standard Oil Company at a big figure you will find the great monopoly to be generous buyers. Many new wells are being bored and derricks are being put in position to drive others. I think the Los Angeles country will prove it self a richer and more permanent oll- j producing locality than even the famous oil region of Pennsylvania, when 40-years ago prodigious quantities of the illuml mating oil were discovered in the depths of the earth and when hundreds of poor farmers became millionaires.
