For this reason Dr. Hill, the middle-of-the road candidate, will draw a yreat part of the populist votes. The fusion ticket is a weak one, more on account or tnc fjen eral dissatisfaction and lack of enthusiasm that is bound to fol low such cold-blooded and prac tical for-the-spoils arrangement than because of the personal de merits of the democrats.

SENATOR WOLCOTT. THE PRIMARIES. Tomorrow the republican pri maries will be held. While the contest of candidates for local of j fices will not figure in the elec I tion of delegates to as great an I extent as formerly, the general and deep interest in the impend i iug struggle is certain to call out ! a full vote tomorrow. To remind men of their duties as citizens is a aeiimic tasin., iui the monitor is ?.pt to be regarded as a presuming and officious meddler. Still" one can hardly deny that the right to participate ia the primaries implies a duty to do so, and it is not improper at this time to urge upon all good citizens whose political be lief will allow them to affiliate with and support the republican party, the importance of taking part in the primaries. It is un necessary to argue about this im portance. No one will dispute it. The republican convention, it is expected, will be composed ol men whose first thought is the snreess, or the oartv. A large vote tomorrow means the reali zation of this expectation. A POET CANDIDATE. Will R- King, the fusion nom inee for governor, and Robt. M. Veatch, the candidate for con gressman from this district, were once agricultural college stu dents. The fact that these two men, who studied political econ omy under President Arnold, are now running: for office on a tree -.- , j r j lege in the early eighties. He was a student of considerable force and application, but then had peculiar ideas regarding the unlimited power of law to create. In the Adelphian society and the the temptation to inform the public that the fusion' candidate for governor once resorted to rhyme writing, be resisted. is too strong to The professor of mathematics, A ,r;rand old river running by. Beyond that tow:i a man was found Who sometimes told a lie." The fact that such a discovery seemed startling enough to Mr. King to be commemorated in verse, speaks volumes for his earlv faith in the generel verac- ity of mankind. His later polit- cal experience has perhaps made him more cynical. Mr. King is not running for governor upon his reputation as a poet, and this gem from the romantic period of his life may be out of place at this time, but with its publication a valuable District Convention. A republican convention for the first congressional district of the state ot Oregon is hereby call ed to meet in the city of Eugene, on Monday, April 11, at 2:30 p. m.Jor the purpose of nominating a candidate lor congress for the first, congressional district, and to transact such other business as I m!y properly come before said convention.
