WHDITE8DAT SOGIAL AND PERSONAL a large last night at the court house to audience, and the splendid opinion here' toiore nad ot him wm not lessened, but increased. Judge Crowell stated that he would discuss principally matters that are of interest to the people of Oregon. The Union of foicea Is for the redemption ot the people of Oregon, for the securing ot reforms needed in the state. He would talk business. We desire a reform of the ballot, a better election law, so that at least soma ot the corruption ot Portland may be stopped. He would plead for a better condition, so that official will be held to a strict accountability. . Without the school land ring ot Ore gon then would now bo foui or five million dollars in property for the use of the schools of the state. Thia fund must be held sacred. The school book ring is another thing that needs reforming. We are paying more for book than in adjoining states, f 1.70 more for the series of readers alone than in Washington, just because ot an unjust'school book contract. The republican in their platform say they want reforms in the state, an ad mission of guilt, for they have been In power n the state. A criminal about to be hang always want retonn. The last legislature of 90 members had lol clerks, no more need en than bed bugs in Paradise. 121 should be done away with.

If the man wHh a SI 600 hooae was treated likewise he would be ed only $100. In Linn county there are 126 milee of railroad, appraised at $391, 000.
