Charles H.Fiebei vu in Portland lat tk attending a, meeting of the demo crat state central committee, aud ar ranging lor the sale ot the ipopuliaisof Douglo county. Charley ha no doubt barsaioed them off, but he mar have trouble to deliver them. S. L. Morebeal, editor of die Junction City Tune, has been torn'toned ae a probable candidate for j-int renaior for the district cmpoeed of Lin. Djuulaa and Jofephine. Mr. Morehrad would make firat cUr senatorial timber, and if Lane coo my hould preeent ttis name t j t- e convention t ou! I (nd a gd show for the njunnaiion, at Douglas county republican) f.f 1 very trieudly to Lne county and would, we believe, be inclined to favor the choice of Lane county for thai position. tie understand thai eonie persons Lave taken exception iu regard to our remarks in onr list issue in renard to the i pddlera of musical- i elrunie nte. We nhmil we were cor roc. This clas of bosineee is one of the greatest evils the established man of business in any line has to deal with. A I tears ago this C wnty. aud we presume almost every county iutbe state, as vfciled by a gang of sharpers relliag m lut they called teel ranges, and they eold hundreds of them. The stoves were gen-rally sold cm time, the purchaser giving his note which mas immediately sold to "an in ."fcooent purchaser'- and althungh the stoves proved almost wor.hiers the par tiea Lad to pa; the notes. Any of the reliable, established hard earn firms like Churchill & Woo! ley at Koseuuig, or Stearns & Chenoweth at Oakland could neve eo'.d a. much Jietter race at a smaller price, would have guaranteed tbe goods and remained here to make their ruaranlee irood. Ttie stme can be Safcl of almost every class of goods. If a man cant (ret just, what he wsuts at home and sends a way for it, there is n great harm done; but when an outsider brings in a stock of good, of any kind, for tbe pnrpose of unloading them in competition with tbe ts'sbhebed busi ness men of tbe town who pay rents and taxes during the dull season as well as tbe brisk season, and who x-nti ibate of tbe proceeds of their labor and. bosinect ' for tbe building np of their town and county and spend their money with oth er bo ioeee men, they should receive but cant encouragement. Every voter who comes to Tloseburg between now end May 5th, tbe date when r be registration books close, eboulJ, if be has not already done so, see that his name is properly registered s a voter, in otder that he may bave a voice in tbe coming election. A great deal of time and trouble could be pre vented if every voter should, prior to ap pearing before' the proper officer for res ist ration, inform himself thoroughly as to tbe requirements for registration and be able to furnish all tLe information re paired by the registering officer. The person offering to register must give: First, hie full name ; seecood, busikess or occupation; third, bis aire in years; fourth, tbe country of his nativity; fifth, if naturalized, the ti oe, placn and court of naturalization or declarator, an ex hibit to tbe officer of legal proof thereof, that is either bis origins! papers or certi fied copies thereof ; sixth, bis actual and precise place of residence of tbe elector at tbe time of registering, end if in the country, the section, town and range; and if in a city or town having streets, be must state tbe name of be town or city, tbe street or oilier location of bis oVeGing, giving the number of such dwelling if tbe same Las a number; if it bas no number Ibto it must be described in some manner by wl icb it can be readily identified. If tbe elector is not tbe I ead or proprietor tf tbe hoaee, that fact must be stated and be must state what part of tbe house he occupies, giv ing room and floor. If from any oauee the elector cannot sign Lis name and mark his ballot, that fact most be stated and tbe reason given. All of this infor mation must be given at tbe time cf reg istration and every person intending to register should know brtore he goes be fore tbe olios that be is prepared to give it. We are of tbe opinion that the law will prove burdensome and unsatisfact ory so far at leart as it applies to rural district.. In Isct. there is little or no cause for such restrictions in tbe coun'r districts. Tbe per cent of illegal votes cast in these districts is no small as not to justify tbe expense of tbe taxpayers and tbe inconvenience to tbe voters. If tbe law bad been in tda ti apply to cities of a given population, tt would have ac compiisnej me en as to wbicn it was en acted, as it Uia the cities where illegal voting as a business is practiced, and liters tbe inconvience of cotnpljiog with tbe Jaw is not great. Hoacer, as we bave the law it tbould be given a fair trial. Value of Timber Lands. That tbe value of Pacific coast timber is increasing rapidlv under a legitimate demand is without question. Tbe fact that Eastern timber buyers are investiga ting every tract of available timber land in Douglas county, sod that there bave been over twenty timber entries made in the last few days in the land office here, show that men of experience in tbe lum ber business can see tbe future value of our timber landi. With the building of Cbe Xkarsugua canal aud the increased consunuttido of lumher in the develop ment of tbe Pacific coast states, makes tbe securing of 16J seres of timber land a duty lo every man who can take a claim under tbe timber act. L.T. Travis, Agent Southern K. H , Eelins, Ga., writes, "I can not say too much is praise of Ooe Minute Cough Cure. In my case it worked like a cbarm." Tbe only harmless remedy that gives immediate results. Cures coughs, colds, croup, bronchitis, snd all throat and long Iron hlea. A.C MsrtOers & Co. IN FIRST DISTRICT. Eight Candidates tor the Congression al Nomina' Ion. Intorest in republican politics is chief ly centered in the spirited contest now underway for t be congressional nomi nation i i tbe Brat district. Eicht pruiu inen' republicans are mentions.! in con nection with thn nomination, and ail ate patting u, a ctato fihl within party lines. Etch has e ioog following. State Senator George C. Crcwuell has Clacka-: masouuty vi'bo tt doubt, lie bascai. vasd .be field throuhly, aud has his countrv so well iu hand that the Tongue men hsv but faint hope of wreeltug it from him. Claud Gatcti wilt into the conven tion with the solid backiuj t iusrtuu county. Mr. Gated is one of the most DoDular republicans in Oregon, lie is au ex mayor of ralem. lit the seusa'tuual coutestoi 1SJ5 he received couiplimeut- sry Totes for United Sta'es senator. Linn cjuuty'acondiJate is ex-Ci cuit Judge 11. U. Hewitt, of Albany, Jodjie Hewitt is one of the best-known jurists in tbe state. lie was defeated for te eleclion in 1SHS because the republicans of his district did not arrange lbs ballot n a way that would give him the full vote of bis party. This was sn accident and one which the republicans of bis district have since bad reason to regret. Benton county presents Stale Senator John D. Paly, of Corvallis. tew repnr, licans are better known ihu Senator Daly. He was a staunch Doiph support er in the legislature U ISOo. He can safely coiut on the delegation from Lin coln coouty as well as that of Bentou. A. C. Woodcock, of Eugene, has strong following, snd bis triecda are urging him to enter tbe lists as Lane county's candidate. Robert G. Smith, of Grants l'ass, iil be tbe candidate of Josephine county Mr. Smith was a member of the legisla ture of 1S05. Ue stood by Senator Dolpb to the last. Speaking of Mr. Smith's chances, William Huntley Hampton, of Leland, who was the republican nom inee for th- legislature in Josephine county two years ago, said .yesterday : "Mr. Smith will have tbe Josephine del egation betiiud bim. He is au able, act ive man, and he would honor the first district if it should send him to con gress." Southern Oregon is pushing Hoe.E. i . tarter ot Asniand, to tne trout lor th nomination. Mr. Carter was speak er of the bouse at tbe special session in 1893, and at lbs regular session in.13.i3. His friends say that he can go into the convention witn the support of the dele gations from Jackson, Klamath. Like Coos and Carry csajttes. When asked about the congressional nomination, be Slid it was an nouoT to which any re publican might aspire. He said lie knew that bis friends were ntgiog bis name Jand that he greatly appreciated their interest in his behalf. Southern Oregon wants Mr. Carter," said A. Y. Beach, one of tbe owners of tbe Lakeview Examiner. "We know bim as a broad man. Ue would honor the first district in congress, and we are determined to do everything possible to briog about his nomination. Southern Oregon Las large interests that need at tention, snd we are entitled to represen tation in congress." Eepreeentative Tongue realizes Ibat Le bas a stiff fight on bsnd, and ia working bard to bold bis forces together. He is sore of Washington county, his borne ; but be knows that be will bave ti rustle to get votes in tbe other counties. Sen ator McBride'a. recommendation of Ira S. Smith, of Monmoulb, ia a move to keep Polk county in line for Mr. Tongue, Mr Smith was a member of tbe legislature oflSOo. Though be voted for Senator Doiph to the end, the Djlph managers regardea turn as one who was ever ready to flop. He was not disconcert ed when Sens! or Doiph went down to de feat. His recommendation for tbe Alas ka collectorsbip comes after five years as a reward for the uncertain state of mind in which be kept himself for 40 days and nights at Salem in January and Feb ruary, 1895. V It is a battle royal and the best man will win, and tbe others congratlate bim and work for bis election. Each of Mr. Tongue's opponents bas his own county, but no one not even Mr. Tongue bas tbe district . Tbe opposition candidates know tbst tbe only way for one of their number to win is to treak n; Tongue's strength and get bim oct of the wsy. Tbe plan was t rojected many times when Binger Hermann was in congress, but it did not succeed unlilMr. Tongue woDftbe prize st Albany in 1396. Mr. Tongue bas the same kind of a fight on band this year that Hermann bad four years ago. Within a few days Chairman George A. Steel will call a meeting of tbe repub lican state central committee for tbe pur pose of naming the time and place of boldiog the state convention. There seems to be no doubt that the convention will be beid in Portland, and that tbe date will be early in April. Chairman Steele said yesterday that tbe only busi ness that will come before Ihs ommitke will be in relation to tbe hoidicg of tbe convention and the apportionment for representatioa. Oregonian. Elkton News. Mrs. Spencer of Gardiner pissed through on Friday's stage. Mr. Heed of Rosebor;, was buying cattle in this vicinity last week. Mrs. Delia Jones, who has been visit iug relatives at this place (or sone time, bss returned to her home in Aberdeen, Wash. Miss Saran U'ilbjtirne returned to her home in Cotta; Grove, Thursday. Mr. Win. Buck went to Drain laat week to visit the family of J. A. Culy. Mr. Frank Kent of Drain, is driving stsge for Mr. Culy who is suffering severely with a felon. - Eider Ford, of Eugene will be up from Gardiner on the 30 oh of this month and will hold meeting on the eveuing of the 3Jlli and oa tbo day of thc3Ist and prob ably longer.

THE RESULT IS UNDECIDED I Warren's Force Pushing Its Way to!cuurcu, fin , sppoinlmeutat Mi the Besieged City Casualties Were Not Heavy. M London, Jan 21. The war otfioe short ly after midnight posted the following dispatch from General Bullrr, dated Spearman's camp, January SO, even- ing: "Geueial Clrry, with a part of General Wamn'd force, has beeu iu action from 6 a. m. till 7-p-OJ today. By a judi cious use ot bis artillery he bas fought his way np, capturing ridge after ridge for about three miles. "Tbe troops are now bivouaking on the ground he bas gained, but the main forco is stilt in front of then). "The casualties were not heavy. Ah ut 100 wounded bad been brought in by l:30 p m. The number of killed bas not yet beeu ascertained." It is evident ftom General Butler's dis patch to the war office and the advices to the Associated Press from Spearman's camp that a big battle is now being fought. As far as can be gathered from those dispatches, tbe result remains un decided, and unless tbe lrs withdraw during the night, the engagement on which hangs the fate of Ltdysmitb, and which may prove tbe turning point of the whole war, will be resumed this m.irniog. PROGRESS OF THE BATTLE. Bridzades of Lyltleton and Warren Are Engaged With tbe Boers. Toearman s Camp, Jan. 20. 11 :lo a. m The bring of field guns was beard early this morning on the left. Evidently General Warren commenced tbe bom bardmeot of tbe Boer trenches on Taban myana mountain. There was also brief musketry fire. Among tbe prisoners captured Thurs day was a grandson-in-law ot President Kryger. Evening Tbe Boer trenches we& shelved continually today. General Lyt tleton's brigade advanced and occupied a kopje 2000 yards from the Boer position at Brakfootein. A company cf rifles ad vanced with a balloon ia actioo, and was received with a heavy fire from tbe Boers. The artillery and musketry fire con tinues from General Warren's position. Tiie enemy has not shifted its posifToa at tbe time this dispatch is sent, and shells kave set fire to tbe grass. Lord Lnndonald's force Thursday sur prised 350 Boers. The British, who were paeted on a kopje, allowed the Boers to advaneed leisurely b afore opening fire. Tbe Boers did not reply, and a majority of tbem galloped ofi. It ia reported that tne remainder surrendered. THE NORTHWARD MARCH. Ltdysmitb Can HoIJ Out Until Buller Arrives. Loxdj.v, Jan. 20. Telegrams from the front indicate that tbe northward march of the relief column moving towards Ladysmith is proceeding steadily. An tborities here seem satisfied that Gener al Boiler's forces are within sight of Ladysmith. Ths beeeiged place is safe at present from serious attack. Advices from Cape Town say that Lord Roberts has appointed Lord Stanley, member of parliament fur East Linca shire and formerly member of the Gren adier guards, to be press censor. Prince Francis of Teck has gone lo the front. Tbe Duke of Marlborough, in his capacity as a staff officer, left for South Africa today. Tbe duchess and her mother, Mrs. O. H. P. Belmont, accom panied bim as far as Southampton. The duchesb will not, however, go with her husband to the Cape. Tbe duke does not take a large retinue of servants to tbs front with him, as bas frequently been intimated, bnt is accompanied only by his valet. "There ia every indication that a big fight for the western roads (leading to Ladysmith) wit! take place today," writes tbe London Leader's military critic in tbe issue of today (Saturday). "though it may have begun yesterday. All the artillery cf Generals Warren and Uildysid was not across the drifts yesterday, snd tbe ammunition train and most of tbe heavier guns were prob ably then south of tbe Tugels. These indications, as welt as General Warren's bng-r march, point to the serious effort being made today." Tbe Morning Post's war critic says : "Sir Charles arren's intention is to turn tbe ribl flank ot the Boers, pre sumably those facing General Lyttleton, but whether he proposes to attack tbaf flmk, as be would by descending tbe vallty of Blaaubaok Spruit, or to march right round it by the valley of Sand riv e., can hardly yet be determined. Tho fighting, when it comes, may be expect ed to be heavy and continuous, and ths lobses may be severe. Far from their base at Cbeveley, with the river be'jiod them, and with the enemy in large num bers between toem and Ladysmith, the position cf tho British forces is not an easy one." The war office is coming iu for consid able criticism tor refusing to accept of fers of private houses for the reception of the wounded from South Africa. This pa'riotic movement has been snubbed by tbe curt reply tbat the wounded would bo retained iu tbe hospitals until they were able to dispense with nursing. The war office bas made public a briet report from Lord Roberts, under today's date, raying iu substance tbat General French ha i extended hit line to the east, further threatening tbe Boer lines of communication.
