Tomorrow the republicans of Lane county will select their can didates for ollice. It is to be hoped tli;it good, honest, economi cal men will Im selected for tho re spective positions. The republican county ticket nominated Saturday is not con considered a strong one. It con tains tlio names of u few candidate who wiil nut well, but the great majority of it is not brilliant. There nro straws already appar ent which g' to show which way the political wind will hlo.v in New York next November. The democratic victories in the charter elections in tlio lowt.s of Saratoga ami Sing Sing, New York, revers ing last year's result in both eases, are two of thesu straws which por tend the result of tho full election in the Empire state. Chicago Tribune: There were plenty of empty scats in tho car, but the smiling youth who wore his hut on the buck part of his head stopped opposite the hand soiii'j young woman in the red hut, and said, in his most engaging manner: ' Can I take this seat, miss? "I have no objections, sir," she replied, in a tone that frozo tlio smile fast on his face; "but 1 think it's nailed down." A dispatch from Washington cnys that Senator Mitchell in one of the lenders in the endeavor to amend tho mineral land bill, now pending in congress, so that the S. 1. Co. can immediately securo patents to '200,1X10 acres which have ulrcutly lieen listed, advertised and approved by the secretary of the . interior. Tho Jacksonville Times says: We cannot believe that tho senator is supporting tho smeiul nient; for, while ho has been an attorney for railroad companies for many years, he has generally in congress served the last interest of his constituents. Many years ai;o whoti Ellon Terry was n young woman, sho was walking home from rehearsal carrying hur baby then 3 or 4 weeks old. She was- very tired, and remarked to a friend who ac companied her, "I have only a shilling with me, which will just nay for a cub home. I don't think I can walk any further." At that momenta wretchedly clad woman asked to buy some violets. The friend hud no money, but Ellen Terry said, "Wait a moment," and rhe hurried into u woolen draper's shop, bought a knitted crot-s over with thu shilling, and tied it over tho poor woman's breast. Then she walked ou, remarking, "That woman's misery would have haunted me all the evening," and never once regretted her long walk with a heavy baby. Albany Democrat: The result of the congressional convention to meet in Albany Tuesday is a very hnzy one. It is deeidodly mixed. As it approaches, the chances for thu nomination of Hermann grows less; likewise tho chunce-t for Ford, whilo the prospect ol II. II. Miller increase. Mr. Miller is a single gold standard man and thereby hangs the tale. In the Linn coun ty delegation it is possible Her mann will have three votes, the other seven instead of being for Ford as stated by tho Democrat aro simply anti-Hermann. As a mut ter of fact they are not for Ford, but in all probability are with one or two exceptions lor II. B. Miller. Hermann and Ford are free silver men. Miller's chances are getting stromr on account of his cold pro clivities, tho gold hugs having got- l ton in their work in a good many j counties. The J H C edings of tho convention will Im watched with , , A.bailV people as :n ni.u... consist of ii delegates. Salem statesman: Mrs Wesley Shannon of Eugene, Is in this city.
