Tbe republicans of Benton county, I with very few exceptions, express them selves strongly ih favor of the Portland factions dropping their differences and agreeing upon some plan of unification. A well known republican voiced the gen eral sentiment when he said, "I am tired rf portlad fa If fhose people cannot agree. I am, in favor of holding the state convention without a deleeatiov from Multnomah county. The outside republicans should not undertake to choose Portland's representation, and the best way t forci. the factions to gether is too keep them both out." The populist aud the democratic papers are at war. The shrewder democrats know that their followers will not swal low all the populist platform :: d wish the propused new party to avoid sucii issues as the initiative and referendum. Tlie populist.-.. 1.11 the other hand, ar- in dependent and declare that their e-Jlir-creed must be incorporated iu the uiii-mi pi xtform or they will act alone.

We 'have a good name and fine organization. If the democrats lion- j estly believe as w-- do, there is not the 1 I slightest reason why they should not en I lisl uuder stir banner and we wiil gladly j welcome them. But there is absol.-.Leiy .'. need for a new party or a new urbani zation. We will uot let the old demo cratic bosses boss us under the j-iii.e ! of Uiiion.' " The name of A.

H,' said that it was the belief among d .-inocrats that Joe Simo.1 would seek to dictate the nominations of the republican state convention but that he would fail, and he would eall another convention and nominate a bolting re publican ticket which would have the support of the Oreganian.

H., Jan. 3, 1898. Ed. Gazette: "See Naples and die." "See Boston or die a fool." Now, I have never seen Naples, consequently am uot quite ready to die, and it was not through fear of dying a fool that myself and daughter visited Boston a few days ago, but for the express purpose of seeing Miss Maud Hoffman; and knowing that the goad people of Benton county have a kindly feeling for, and are interested in anything concerning this talented young actress, who has made such rapid pro gress in her chosen profession, I take this opportunity to add my feeble tribntu of praise to one who is not only talented, but has had the push and energy to over come almost insurmountable obstacles and prove it beyond a doubt. We found Miss Hoffman blessed with the sau-ie sunny temperature, happy dis position, as when we knew her iu Ore gon. While oar talk with her was very brief, we left her feeling our appreciation of her artistic work pah- before ur ad miration for hi.r as a true and noble wo man. As Lucy White, the professor's secre tary, in the coiiuly entitled, "The Pro fessor's Love Story," Miss Hoffman ex hibited that keen perception of charac ter innate in all true artuts. The charac ter portrayed was neither "over dene nor come tardy off," it was like holding "the mirror up to nature;" not a line nor wrd had escaped her notice. The most trivial matter received the same attention as the most difficult passage. If one were as!ted which particular scene was the best enacted it would be hard to answer the whole was so near perfection. I pre dict for Mis Hoffman a brilliant future. She will persevere in overcoming every obstacle until fame and fortune are at her command. w. E. Paul. Late Telegraphic News. Mark Hauna was elected senator. He has over seven year.; to serve.

A Very Proper Complaint. Alska, Ok., Jan. 9. 1898. Ed. Gazktte: 1 see that in your last issue you have my name mentioned as one of the union ists. I will admit I was in the room (tit the union convention), but I did not take any interest in th' work except as a spectator. I am a republican and have always been one. I have keen in the re publican county conventions for the last lour years as a delegate, and I was vice-president of our McKinley club and am not asham ed of my political affiliations. Do not think that I am offended at the mistake, for I am not, but I do not want people to think that I am a Bryan democrat. I hope the republican party will nominate a clean, strong ticket that will be elected, and believe it will, Your truly, S. N. Warfield. A thousand apologies are due Mr. Warfield. His true blue re publicanism is well known to the editor, and only most inexcusable inadvertance mixed his name up with tho "probable sympathizers" of the union movement. The nameg of Mayor Woodward, Judge Hufford, Geo. Waggoner, John Buchanan, Jerry Henkle, Judge Moor and hundreds of other loyal republicans might as well have been associated with the fusion cause ns that of Mr. Warfield.
