JACKSONVILLE, Or., Feb. 27. (Spe cial.) The big auditorium of the Jack eon County Courthouse was last night filled to overflowing' and standing- room was at a premium. The occasion was the organization of the Jacksonville Commer cial Club and the awakening- of the town. The good ladies of the town were the instigators of the movement and de serve all of the credit for the big demon stration. All day carriages filled with women went to every home in Jackson ville and vicinity, distributing notices of the meeting and appealing to everyone to come out and help organize a new town out of an old one. Over five hundred of Jacksonville's citi zens attended the meeting and the utmost enthusiasm prevailed. George L. Davis called the meeting to order and speeches were made by prominent citizens asking the people to get together and work for the good of the town. The club iwas then organized in a business-like shape, a constitution and by laws adopted and the following- officers elected: President, T. J. Kenney; vice president, George La. Davis; secretary, C. L. Reames; treasurer. Jay C. Sexton. Practically every man and woman in town Joined the club and today nothing is heard on the streets but good booster talk.

(Special.) With one exception, the Senatorial and Representative candidates of Josephine County are not pledging themsolves to support Statement No. 1. They have donned a straight party jacket. George W. Colvig, who heads the race for Sena tor, places himself in alignment with his party In every instance. O. S. Goodnow, his running mate, looks upon Statement No. 1 as the primary ingredient of his political preferment and he goes on rec ord with his petition so signed. Getting into the represenetative body, the two candidates. Dr. J. C. Smith, the present city Mayor, and George H. Dur ham, attorney for the Southern Pacific Company, have neither bound themselves to Statement No. 1. Among the 12 other candidates of the Republican party in this county none has any particular expression to make in regard to Statement No. 1. Rummaging through the Democratic petitions that are filed, there is sufficient evidence to war rant the belief that they may have a warm feeling for Statement No. 1. It appears, from , what can be observed, that nearly all the oandidates or politi cal leaders In the field are beginning to weary of flirting with polygamous politics.
