So far as Lane county is concerned, this union of tlie opposition forces is nut now denied by any one.

At this writing it seems quite likely that a fusion or non partisan ticket will be placed in the field at the next county election , and if good men are nomi nated, they will have an excellent chance of election. However. Col Alley is ,1 rawing upon his fertile imagination when he says that the positions on the county ticket are being "detailed out and Enoch Coleman is to lead the ticket as State Senator." The convention or conventions will namo the ticket u Buch a one is nominated, aiul "ujuuioi oi posses. However we will remark riht here that Hon. L.
