S. L. Morebeal, editor of die Junction
City Tune, has been torn'toned ae a
probable candidate for j-int renaior for

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.

coughs, colds, croup, bronchitis, snd all
throat and long Iron hlea.

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

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,

Daly. He was a staunch Doiph support

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

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

tation in congress."
Eepreeentative Tongue realizes Ibat Le

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

seems to be no doubt that the convention

THE BATTLE IS
British and Boers Met Near
Ladysmith.
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.
