Leo Gerhard was born near Corvallis Aug. 8, 1863. and spent most of his life here, where he made many friends and no exemies.

The couv. v lian was called to order at 10 a. 111. Major Bruce was elected chair man; Nels Wheeler, secretary, aud A. L. Clark, assistaut secretary. A committee 011 resolutions consisting of A. L- McFad den. Judse Burnett, 1$. F. Irvine, N. L. Raber and A. V. Herlert. was appointed. Speeches were made by Judge Mcl'a vden, Geo. Robinson, A. L. McFaddew, B. F. Irvine and N. L. Raber. Auetit .-.cute talk as to discussing government control f railroa-lsTn the resolution -, the chair Man said that Judge Burnett being a fruit man. would doubtless lie interested in that question. The convention adjourn ed at 12, for dinner. At one o'clock the meeting was again called to order, aud the resolutions pre pared by the committee were sdopted, delegates to the union parly, which metis in Portland today, ;re elected, and an executive committee appointed. None of the details for uniting the several laetions were agreed upon. It was, however, the unanimous sextiincnt of all who spoke, that union be effected. A. L. McFadden announced that in Benton county, the populist piimarics, under the new system, were already under way, aud if the union patty did not soon auneuuee its plan of action and begin immediate organization, the populist ticket would be in the field belore the unionists would assume shape, and it would be extremely awkward, to say the least, to then arrange a satisfactory fusion. N. L. Raber and Eugei.e Palmer denied that they were "Silver republicans," say. iug that there existed no such party. Vr. Palmer asked the convention, "What am I?" but he was told thvt the answer could not be made until tue proposed pariy is named. Aiming those in attendance who are supposed to sympathise with the move ment were, beside those already named: Dave Osburn, Fred Overlander, John Os j burn, John Stewart.George Stafford, John i Veraig, D.

NOTES, - Tue leaders of the different parlies that are tryi" to combine, are yet at sea as to the basis on which they will unite. The biggest rock in the way is the parcelling out of the offices. The name is bothering some of the in terested ones. Many of the populists think that their name, standing for origi nal reform, is good enough for any real reformer. They say that a new canned party will not be associated with any na tional organization, and that this, in itself is an element of weakness iu practical politics. It is hardly likely that the democratic contingent will be satisfied with anything else tha the following offices: Sheriff, clerk, judge, aosaisor and treasurer, On the last fusion deal in this county the democratic candidates were success f Hi, while the populists were defeated with the exception of Johi Whitaker, who was elected representative by a very small plurality, and that by republican votes. .
