ROOSEVELT FOR HERMANN. As an evidenco of the absolute rot and villillcatiou and baseless assaults which the opposition is making on tho re publican nominee for Congress, witness the distardly article in tho Portland Journal in which it asserts that Mr. Hermann thirty years ago bought land of tho government when he was an of ficial of the Rosobmg land office, and it quotes the following law which pro hibited such land entries : Sec. 452. Tho oflicors, clerks and employes in the Goneral Land Office are prohibited from directly or indirectly purchasing or becoming interested in tho purchase of any of the public land ; aud any person who violates this eeetion 6hall forthwith bo romoved from his office." It can bo seen that this law only ap plies to officers, employes and clerks in the Goneral Laud Office. A Register or Reeoivor of tho Rosoburg land office is not an officer is tho General Land Office. That applies to all the federal officers in service tn the Goneral Land Office. Then again tho sensational Portland Journal also states that becauso of thoso land entries he had to reolgn thirty years ego, when the truth is- that be cause of the eensatorial contest between Senator Corbett and Senator Mitchell. Mr. Hermann and all the other federal officers in Oregon stood by Corbett be cause thav owed thoir appointment to him and would have been Ingrates had thev notdonoso. And whe Venator Mit chell was elected all of Coatai friends seen another lady since last October was when our party visited the moun tain home. On this land being held down as homesteads, we found a few log cabins or pi'iis but there was not a sign of habitation and nine-tenths of the claims were held in fraud to be in future, proved up by perjury. Mich a settlement as this is a curse to the btato and we havo no doubt but the same state of affairs exists all over Oregon. Scores of good timber locations could be found and taken up that will give from 3,000,000 to 0,000,000 feet of lumber to tno quarter section, and as tins turner is located on a good logging stream tho claims would realize a small fortune to thoso who would take them up. Priest Joins the Elks. What is thought to have boon tho first initiation at Catholic priosts into thu Order of Elks has taken place in Now York. Tho Rev. William H. J. Reany, chaplain, D. S.

James Bryno, who has u Stalcn Island parirfh, have joined tho secrot society which is favored especially by theatrical people There has uover boon any opposition on the pait of tho church to tho laity join ing the Elks, which is regarded ia tho light of a fraternal society, and it is we known that thousands of Catholics throughout tho country are members of of tub order, lutthis is tho firtt in stauce, as fur as known, where priests haveboeoine members. Oregonian. This is a mistake for Rosoburg sot the pace when Father Doyle was Initiated some five weeks Hgo in our lodge. We want it to he distinctly known that Koeo burg claims the honor of initiating the first Roman Catholic priest into tl Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks Another dirty assertion is made against Mr. Hermann to the effect that it was President Roose. elt who caused Ms retirement as commissioner, whoa as a matter ol tact the matter was never mentioned between Mr. Hermann and Ufc President, and furthermore, what is, perhaps, a boomerang the opposition has received, President Roosevelt is now out ia an interview in which he assorts that he and Mr. Herman not only are now oil cordial terms but always have been, and the president urgoa the people oi Ore aon to vote for Mr. Hermann ".and send him back to Congress. In the face of such refutation of the baseless attacks now resorted to by the opposition, will these not causo many fair-minded democrats give to Mr. Her mann their support as a rebuke to each dirty mud slinging as is now indulged in. Mr. Hermann everywhere speaks kindlv of his 'opponent and he is mak ing a gentcmanly campaign everywht re. in office went out and MifiJI&U's friends went in. Those are the facts. There wasnothiug to the discredit of Mr. Her mann's record when he was ia the Rose burg land office, in fact the records show that the government ovnad a balance on his account, which it paid him. Bryan and Cleveland. In an interview for publication on last Saturday, Whi. J. Bryan said : "There is not the remotost possibility oi Mr. Cleveland being tho nominee. Even his etaachost friends will not risk him as a candidate." The same day in an interview Grover Cleveland sars : ..At no timo since the close of my last admin istration have I been desirous of carry ing the Democratic bannor for the fourth time in a Presidential contest."

City Treasurer's Notice. ' On Saturday, the Jackson Sprats of Rosoburg, played the Edenbower team on the ball grounds in South Rosoburg, and the Edenbower bovs had a regular walkover and from all appearances tho Jackson Sprats will do well to pratice mauling logs. At the end of the game, tho score stood: Edenbower 112, Jackson 2. On Sunday tho Jackson Sprats were re-organized, and the best players in the Edenbower team were employed by Jackson to plav his game against the Cottage Grove Cyclones, which turned out to Iks a comedy of errors; and tho lovers of the national gama who at tended the parody on base ball which was played at tho local grounds yester day were much disappointed at tho poor showing made by tho "grafters." To start things off just right and proper. Manager Jackson decided to charge ten cents extra for scats in the grand stand, but when tho Ancient Order of Rooters arrived in a body aud took soats on the bleacher, they opened up their starboard batting on Jackson in such a manner that ho ran up tho white flag, returnod tho money to thoso who had already paid for the shaded seats and surrender ed unconditionally to the rooters who boarded their prize and set in tho shade. Up to tho sixth inuing tho "big wind" boys had thiuga their own way and the score stood 9 to 4 in thoir favor, but with one rotten potato in a barrel of good ones all are exposed and in thia case it "took" and they wont to tho bad Then tho "Sprats" commenced to pile up raus, and at the finish of the game tho score was 10 to 11 in tho "Sprats" favor. After tho game one Of the local fans was heard to remark, "Say I would have been awful mad had I paid 10 cents extra for the grand stand for I do hate to pay 33 cents to see 10 cent ball." Tho Conn boys of tho TMenbower team were the ba.tterafor the "Sprats" and did excellent work, as did Parker at short, but were ioorly sitpiiorteil as numerous errors were piled up by alj memlxrs of the team. The Cottage Grove bovs will in time ulav eood ball.

Confidential. R. Wells, Esq., Olalla, Ore. Mv DflAK Sib: While you are a re publican, and residing in Kr. Hermann's ,own county, I think I may drop yon a line oi a confidential nature, without any danger of your violating my confi dence. There is certainly creat dissat isfaction with Mr. Hermann. I will not be heard to say anything against him, for it is not proper for me to do so- If yon feel like the majority of Oregon republicans that Mr. Her mann has been there long enough, and for reasons which yon know, is not la a position to do much good for Oregon, you can get rid of him, without a saoei- fico of party principle. The House is already elected, is republican by a large majority. My election will not affect its political complexion. It is bat for one term. 11 Mr. Hermann' ia elected bo will probably be there for the next twenty years. Thus it is op to you to Eay whether you think under the cir cumstances, as a good citizen, you can give me your support. If you can, 1 will appreciate it. In tho meantime, if you feel like dropping me a line I will treat the matter as strictly confidential. Truly and sincerely yours, A. E. Rxaves. She letter is a contradiction. If "there ia certainly great dissatisfaction with Mr. Hermann 1" "U Mr. Her mann ia elected he will probably be there for the next twenty years !" The letter shows that the dissatisfaction is democratic dissatisfaction and that tho republicans will honor and rehonor a popular Tnan, Any man who would write such a letter as Mr. Reamea has written ought to be a Tery popular can didate for the lunatic asylum. For several weeks past Russia has been plaving fast and loose with China and beneath all promises to the con trary there seemed to be a determina tion to hold on to the rich province of Manchuria. In oil dealings with foreign powers Russia is a trickster and no de pendence whatever can be placed on the promises made. For the past t twenty five years it has been Russia's object to obtain a good seaport in the territory bordering on the Japan Sea or the Yel low Sea and this can onlv be secured by Russianizing Korea or Manchuria. We do not believe the report. For forty yoars we have watched the tracks made by "the bear that walks like a man" and ia ao case have we seen him leave a country in which ho made tracks. He might have appeared to retreat but he alwavs returned in a circle to the place he sought to occupy.

This, is the evening that Mr. Hermann will address Linn County people in this city, Mr, Hermana'a engagement was announced first, and Albany Republi cans had secured the use of the Circut Court Room in the Courthouse for their meeting, but when the followers of Bryan determined to hold their fireworks on thn samo evenine. tho Courthouse man Early laet week the editor took a into Josephine and Jackson and southern part of Douglas county, we were thoroughly amazed at the won derful advantage! the country offers to homeseekers and enterprising business men. Hundreds of thousands of acres of good timber land are to be seen and men of means, joint stock, or co operative asseciationsprold clear mil lions of dollars by cutSng off the tim ber and thua making the development of tho country possible. We saw qaar- ter cections of land which, if everything was cut tliat would make 12x12 inch timbers, would go as high as 10,000,000 feet of lumber, consisting of sugar nnd yellow pine, fir and cedar. There were hundreds of thousands of trees measur ing from 3 to G feet in diameter and towering up from 159 to 200 feet in tho skies and having a length of 103 feet of Rood saw logs to the first boughs. After careful estimate we aro convinced that on one stream tributary to the Rogue river that In a distance of 30 miles from the Southern Pacific railroad where connection could be made that a log gingroad built at a ost of $2,000 per mile would control 2,000,000,000 feet of lumber, every foot of which would havo a down grade from the place whero tho trees grew to tho logging road and rail road. With a working capital of $100, 000 every foot of this lumber could bo controlled and marketed, for that amount of money would be sufficient to commence operations and as develop ments proceeded all expensos could be paid out of tho profits of the concern. When we contemplate such enterprises tho mind cannot fully grasp the im mensity. At tho present price of lum ber the cost of manufacture, stumpngv and so forth, tho clear profits from the timber on this one stream alone would amount to f 100,009,000. In one township we paseeu over wo found that several years ago forty homo stead entries had been made, but with one exception nobody was living on the land. The exception was a gentleman. his excellent wife and three children, and the first time this good lady had miles west of hero were murdered Fri day by an armed mob in disguise. The sheriff, J. A.

Malone was about 60 yoaie old, nnd had recently be came enamoured with a grass widow, Mrs. Maty Frill, whom he converted In to his faith. The two traveled and preached together, living as man and wife. Over this the legal wife, Mrs. Alice Malone, became greatly troubled. and the preacher decided to gut rid of her by claiming that fche was craty. Accordingly, she was brought to this city and placed In jail.

Balentan thought he was doomed to die, bat the dog came to the rescue and Bateman drew a small knife, cutting the bear eo severely that it desisted in its attack. The old bear was accompanied by a cub and the little black auia.al iriwl to as sist iu mother. Estonian killed the cub and Mr. Armstrong brought the skin home as a trophy of the cnuxiulvr.
