Thc average politician now-a-days is ask ing himself "where am I at ? " And in truth it would take a seer to answer him correctly. There is a multiplicity of wheels within wheels and the wheels are buzzing very lively. Every wheel seems to have a movement of its own. Prospects for harmony between the re publican factions of Portland seem very remote. The Simon people say to Mc Kiuley republicans, "harmonize with us, you . You were altogether wrong, you, but for the sake of peace, sweet peace, (and the offices) we will let. you vote our ticket and obiy our sweet will." Sosrie men would reseat such patronizing and perhaps the anti Simon forces will, especially since they are in the majority. Republicans throughout tisc state ream very much disposed to keep 'hands off" of the Multnomah fight, but there is a persistent effwrt on the part of a few to force this fight iuto the cow county r-;nks. These few, however, may get their wings burned. Shrew t men of both gold and silver persuasions, republicans, democrats and populists believe that there will be no complete union of silver forces, and that there will be two republican state tickets. Simon seems to be perfecting an organi zation for an independent campaign, ap pointing lieutenants iu the various coun ties, establishing Simon newspapers through the state and otherwise making ready for his fiht for an independent, belting ticket. To Ibis end, having complete control over U'Ren and Youn, ha will have the populists nominate a middle of-the-road ticket and oppose union in the state, al though allowing the populists to fuse in the counties, if desirable. There is, however, a small, but deter mined revolt against Simon's present plans, even in lib owa camp. Simon kao promised bis followers that Corbett would be seated and control Oregon pa tronai e and that the recommendations rf Hi - Or.irnn illertuMi would be huiisr - 0 a - c up until he was seated. They, to say the least, arc di.sappt iuted, 10 find Simon such a poor prophet. ; Nor are things altogether lovely in the Portland anti-Simon ranks. A tew, aad fortunately only a few, of them 'have joined issues witli Pannoyer to control city politics. Their action has been con demned by Mr. Sol Wirsch and also Mr. Mitchell, b.t the rlay is ou just the same. The union party, if its organization is finally consuinated at all, will be nothing m(,re Ulau lhe ola Bryan democratic party .though it may be considerably lesi Pennoyer will not be in it, and Pevnoyer will be missed. A Uk rough-going populist in Benton county is wondering what the democrats will condescend to allow the populists iu the ay of offices. "This promise of crouer and legi lative business with 1 emphasis on the promise won't go again witii us. We could probably get that from the republicans. Of eourse it is a might god bargain from the demo cratic point of view. We will have to . have some of l!r.e substantiate, and you ! Son- may put it down that we are going to j Gaither executed his nolo to one Daw have them, or tNtere will be no union." SOB fsr over f5,6oo, with several sureties, including H. F. Ficher.

A distracted mother in search of an erring daughter is a painful picture, and but for the fact that probable publicity often deters young people from commit ting grievous sins, aa incident that oc curred Tuesday night would not be told in these columus. A young girl, Lizzie Beach, who resides just across the river in Linu county, was missed from home late Tuesday night and it was discovered that her belongings had been removed from the house. Her mother came to town and bxnting up Officer Eph Beach, secured his aid in the search. It was learned from some source that she wi.s in company of a y-sung married woman, Mrs. Miles Phil lips, whose reputation is far from good, and that the two intended taking the boat next morning for Portland. About two o'clock in the night the officer found them in the vacant house of Mrs. Beach, dressed and with their valises, waiting for the beat. The girl was taken to her mother and Mrs. Phillips was advised to leave Corvallis next day, which she did. The girl claimed that her brother, who is a member f the Salvation Army, treated her So cruelly that she co:ild wot ber to live at li nns and concluded to run away.

The proprietors of one of the largest flouring mills in the Wil lamette Valley are working upon a proposition that is of interest to Corvallisites and people of the Yaquina bay country. Their plan involves the charter ing of a vessel to carry a cargo of Itour to Skagway and the mouth of the Yukon, and the building of two boats to operate on the Yu kon river. It is probable that the river boats will be built in Cor vallis and be taken to the Yukon in '-knock down" shape on the ocean steamer, which is billed on the programme to start from Ya quina bay. Also interested in this enter prise is the Corvallis company, mentioned in the Gazette a few weeks ago, which is organizing to search for the yellow metal up some tributary of the Yukon. There is no lack of capital behind the undertaking. The building of the river boats heie w.ll giv.-; employment to a number of men and put in local circulation considerable money. It is understood thai the machin ery has already been ordered. CASTOR I A Tor Infants and Children. Tie fae limilo signature ' Is OS eTtrr wrapjar. Fun Amcng i iremen.

Harvey Sargent, who recently sued Mary Sargent for a divorce, and named Thomas Warner as an objectionable visitor to hi heme, has commenced proceedings against Warner to recover $15, 000 for alienating the affections of his wife.

The Sargent s were married in 1577. and have live children. Mrs. Sargent, in answer to her husband's divorce suit, states that he left their home iu Corvallis last O 'ob r in search of work, and left her to provide for I herself aud minor children, and j that she has had a hard time do ' ing it.
