Convention Dates to Be Fixed Next
Wcelc Candidates.
BAKER CITY, Or., March 7. The Re
publican County Committee has been
eal!ed to meet In this city March 11 to
ir.ake arrangements for the county con-x-ention.
The Democratic County Com
mittee will meet four days later for the
tame purpose. So far, the Republicans
have not been very active. It Is under
stood that "William Lftchner, who was a
candidate ror postmaster can have the
nomination for County Judge if he will
take It? C. H. Whitney will be the can
didate for Sheriff, and James Cord will
have no serious opposition for County
Clerk. J. A. Wright, of Sparta, who has
served In the Legislature as a Representa
tive from Union County, would like the
nomination on the Republican ticket from
this county. Mr. Wright was annexed to
Baker County with the "Panhandle" dis
trict. For Joint Senator on the Republi
can ticket, George Chandler, of this city,
and J. H. Aiken, of Huntington, are the
most prominent candidates.
It seems to be practically settled that
County Judge Travilllon, Recorder James
and Assessor Jett will be renominated by
the Democrats. For Sheriff, O. P. Ison,
of Valley, and Al Jones, of Sumpter, ecem
to be the leading candidates who will
try for the Democratic nomination. The
candidate for County Commissioner will
go to the "Panhandle,'" the new, district
that was cut off from Union County and
added to this county by the Legislature
at the last session. George or Pleas Brown
seem to stand the best show for this nomi
nation. For Representative to the Legis
lature It looks very much like the nomi
nation will be offered to Mayor Bobbins,
of Sumpter. W. E. Grace is the present
Democratic member of the lower House
from this county, but it is understood that
he will not consent to run again. William
Smith will be renominated without oppo
sition for Senator from this district, which
comprises Baker, Malheur and Harney
Counties. George Foster and Iko McCord
are out for the nomination for County
Clerk.

TO BE BROUGHT TO FRONT.
Meat Extensive la Oregroa Owners
later That a Railroad Will Be
Coastraeted Soon.
GRANT'S PASS. Or., March 7.-Thl
Bummer will witness the opening up or
the most extensive copper mines In Ore
gonthe Waldo mines, In Southern Jo
sephine County, the property of the Waldo
Smelting & Mining Company. Colonel
T. Wain Morgan Draper, of San Fran
cisco, manager of the company, has just
made a visit to the mines, and gave fur
ther instructions regarding the work that
la under way. New bunkbouees, stables
and buildings are being constructed, and,
aBlde from. this. 1100 feet of new tunnel
work is to be done immediately at the
Cowboy and Lyttle mines, two of the prop
erties of the company.
Colonel Draper will employ 300 men at
the mines in the near future. Mining will
be done in the Strong, Lyttle, Waldo and
Cowboy mines. The Strong add Lyttle
mines are already well developed, and ex
hibit as extensive and rich bodies of cop
per ore as can be found in the celebrated
mines of Montana or Arizona. The leages
range from six to 30 feet in width, and
.carry copper values of 11 to SO per cent.
Colonel Draper's Company has already
expended over $100,000, and will expend as
great tin amount in completing the great j
turnrfer tinilr venv lrlrml nioni HAllor-rx .
his mines will In time become as great
producers of copper as are the celebrated
Anaconda mines, of Montana, or the Jer
ome mines, of Arizona. In the matte
of richness, the Waldo mines are superior
to these noted properties, for, besides
carrying as high a per cent of copper,
the ores also carry $2- to JS per ton In gold.
The smelter at the Strong mine will treat
all the ores of the company, and the cop-
per matte will be hauled out by team to
the railroad at Grant's Pass. Remoteness
from the railroad has been the only draw
back to the mines. Colonel Draper states
that this will be ng drawback In the fu
ture, aa when the mines are. once thor
oughly opened up a railroad will be an
absolute necessity, and consequently will
soon follow.

SPRING DEBILITY
Is marked by loss of appetite, by weak, tired and languid feelings,
and if the blood is .very impure, by pimples, eczema, and other
eruptions.
It's a condition that invites disease.
Hood's Sarsaparilla cures it restores appetite, gives
strength and animation, cleanses the blood, cures all eruptions,
and builds up the whole system.,
It's no trouble to take Hood's three small doses daily.
T have taken Hood's Sarsaparilla as '&
Spring tonlo for several years, and' have do
rived great benefit from it I recommend It to
all who have that tired feeling, loss of appetite
or impure blood." Fannie Fisher, 2018 High
street, Des Moines, la
remedy in our home as long as I can remember.
I have taken it in the Spring for several years.
It has no equal for cleansing the blood and
expelling the humors that accumulate during
Winter. Being a farmer and exposed to bad
weather, my system Is often affected, and I
often take Hood's Sarsaparilla with good re
sults. This Spring pimples covered my, face
and troubled me very much about shaving. I
took a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla and the
pimples are now all gone." Ralph Rust, Willis,
Mich.
HOOD'S SARSAPARILLA
Alaskan boundary, but Lord Strathcona,
without doubt, has presented the Do
minion's case, and the British Foreign
Office Is striving to -effect a settlement.
Arbitration ia the solution which Is prob
able, since the State Department la nol
likely to propose the alienation of the
territory ceded from Russia, and any
scheme for a Canadian purchase win be
vetoed by the Senate at Washington.
Arbitration offers a line of least resist
ance and will enable the United States
and the Dominion Governments to for
mulate their cases with precision and to
accept with good grace some equitable
compromise of the frontier question. Ne
gotiations have not reached their final
stage, but their trend is in the direction
of arbitration as the only practicable
method of adjusting this troublesome dis
pute. CONVICTS CANNOT "WORK ROADS.

no legal way in which convicts can bo

against Sawdrey. When the case came
to the Supreme Court the defendant's at
torney, ex-Chief Justice Gordon, and Will
H. Thompson moved to strike appellant's
brief from the files and to affirm the trial
court's judgment, the attorneys referring
to appellant's attorneys' brief as being
"grossly discourteous, unprofessional and
coarse and scandalous." The objection
able part of the appellant's brief follows:
"The action of the court below was art
uncommon example of judicial ignorance
and extra-judicial assumption of power
and usurpation of the functions of the
Jury."

jectionable brief from the files, gives the
offending attorneys SO days within which
to file a proper brief, and Incidentally re
bukes the ex-Chief Justice and Mr.
Thompson by stating that they "are not
without sin" themselves In the language
used In their brief In condemning Attor
neys Barnes and Lattlmer.

Alleged "Washington Bank-rrreckcr
Arraigned at Whatcom.
WHATCOM, Wash., March 7. H. St.
John DIx, recently extradited from Lon
don, charged with wrecking two banks In
this county, was today formally arraigned
and entered a plea of not guilty. The at
torneys not being able to agree on time
for trial, the court set the week com
mencing March 24.
Strenuous objection was made by the
defendant to pleading at this time, on the
ground that transcript of extradition pro
ceedings had not arrived, consequently
there was nothing before the court to
show on what charge he was being tried,
extradition having been granted on some
charges and refused on others-. The state
contested the objections, but neither side
was able to cite authorities supporting
their position, both holding the question
was never before raised. The objection
was overruled.
