Tho county convention of tho K. of P. yesterday nt North Dend was well attended. In tho nfternoon thoro wns n business mooting. It was decided to hold tho convontlon next year at Marshfield under tho nus picos of Myr'tlo Lodgo No. 3. It wns also votod to securo tho grand lodge for Coos Day tho first yenr after tho railroad Is running to this place. Ono candldato, Harry Kern, was taken through tho rank of Esqulro. At 5:30 a banquet was hold at Loggia's hall.

"i87 Against amendment applying stato olcctlon laws to city elections. ' 57 THE RESULT of yesterday's special city olcctlon Is exceedingly grnt irylug. It showed very plainly that tho pcoplo of Marahf lold still miuuiBiui u 1,0 vnmo 01 tiioir uanot. Wlillo tho voto was perhaps ot as largo as It might havo been. It was sufficient to show beyond any question tho ficnora feeling of tho pcoplo. Tho results show that tho pcoplo aro willing to ndopt anything that is sensible. Tho votors by big majority carried tho proposition to ndopt tho stato election law nnd innko It apply to city olections. This Bcomcd to them a thing rcasonnblo to do in ordor to avoid confusion, but tho votors did not ndopt tho first proposition presented on tho ballot. uy tho overwhelming and unques tionably majority of 225 to 10, tho votors of Marshfield exhibited in very plain terms tho fact that they did not Intend to disfranchise thom solvcs. Iho men they havo in tho pnBt elected to tho offices of council men and other city official positions, and tho men they elect to those snmo plnrcB in tho future thoy hnvo confidonco In or they would not voto for them. Uut theso snmo voters do not intend to glvo up nil their r ghtB. In short tho men who votod yesterday expressed tho fooling that thoy did not Intend as citizens of Mnrshflold to vest In tho city coun cil any unduo rights. Thoy ovldontly intond to rotnln for themselves yet spino volco In public affairs as far aB tholr rights as cltlzons go. Whllo tho voting upon n public proposition In soma partB of tho country may Boom to bo a Joko It lins certainly proved in Marshfield as being n moans of tho citizens asserting rights. Yesterday's Bpcclal election wns enough to Indicate that tho city of Mnrshflold Is In no dnngor of having In tho futuro any laws Inflicted upon It which might lend to troublo or disaster. The pcoplo showed that tho pcoplo do now, and will always, rulo. IT was a splendid victory nnd ono thnt adds omphnsls to tho fact that pcoplo aro compotcnt to rulo thomsolvcs nnd run tholr own govern ment. Tho Times docs not nrrogato to Itself nny especial credit for tho ro nult, except that It was tho medium which Informed tho pcoplo of tho truo fnctB Involved In tho election. Tho oloctornto acted on tholr own Inttlatlvo onco tho fnctB woro In tholr possession. That Ib tho great safeguard of tho pcoplo's rights and IlbortlcB a froo and untrnmmolcd press thnt will present tho facts untainted nnd un blnscd. Its cdltorinl Influonco Is nt nil times mensurod by Its honesty In serving tho pcoplo faithfully and giving thorn tho facts uninfluenced by personal PpJudlro or pnrtlsnn favor.
