rived In the city last evening- from

Salem district Epworth League con
vention yesterday. Mrs. Wire, who Is

ject of missions.
Dan J. Ingalls. the veteran repub
lican, who lives at Skamokawa, Wah
kiakum county, Wash., but claims Mel
ville aa his residence, furnished much
of the fun at the republican convention
yesterday. When precinct nominations
were In order the precincts of Melville
and Chadwell, Lewis and Clark valley
towns, were asked to send In their
names. "Halnt no nominees there," re
sponded Mr. Ingalls. " 'Bout eight years
ago we elected a fellor Justice of the
peace out at Chadwell and he died, and
we halnt had none since. What's the
use of a Justice of the peace in a
quiet, well-behaved town like Chadwell
or Melville V Elsie did not send in
any nominations for the reason, as a
delegate from that precinct explained,
that there were but two republican
voters now there, all the others having
moved away. This wduld tend to Indi
cate that, even If Olney goes back on
them, the democrats will have a lead
pipe cinch on Elsie. Olney once did
this very trick In a presidential elec
tion, to the everlasting humiliation of
the unterrlfled.
The entertainment given at Buoml
hall last night by the members of the
Finnish band was an attraction that
packed the hall.- The feature of the
evening was the presentation of the
comedy, "Courtship Under Difficulties,''
which was artistically produced. The
musical numbers, vocal and Instru
mental, were excellent William Fant
taja officiated as director. Dancing
was indugel In until a late hour, and,
after refreshments had been served,
the merry-makers dispersed,

pressed and looking nice for a long
time. Oh, It pays to trade with Wise.
There was much speculation yester
day as to whether or not the use of
John Frye's name before the republi
can convention was authorized. Most
of the delegates seem to believe that
Mr. Frye would not permit his friends
to put him up against Sheriff Llnvllle,
but the statement was made by a coun
try delegate that Mr. Frye bad author
ized use of his name. Mr. Ooodin
withdrew from the race the previous
evening, but there was never a chance
that Mr. Llnvllle would not get the
nomination. If he Is elected he will
have held office for seven years, pro
vided, of course, he completes his term,
which will be a record in this county.
His" unanimous nomination yesterday
was surely a tribute to his popularity.
Two measures that ought not re
ceive a single vote will be submitted
to the voters at the forthcoming state
and county election. These bills are
those providing for direct primary
nominations and local option. The di
rect primary bill is In direct conflict
with" every American principle. It re
quires that direct nominations can be
made only by those parties which
polled 25 per cent of the vote cast for
congressman in the next preceding
election. This would shut out the
prohibitionists, socialists and other
parties of small strength, and in some
districts perhaps make matters rather
embarrasclng for republicans and
democrats. In order ta vote a man
must divulge the nature of his political
faith, which is contrary to American
freedom. The local option law is mere
ly an absurd measure which will en
tall numerous elections, at the expense
of the taxpayers. Those who have
studied the two bills, democrats and
republicans alike, say they are the
most ridiculous measures ever passed
by the legislature.

specifies that policemen can -be dis
charged only for cause. Stark's case
covered by section 42 of the police
board regulations, which reads as fol-
MA11 charges against any mem-
of the force shall be in writing,
signed by, some responsible person
sworn under oath, except when made
the chief of nollce. and specify the
offense and the date of Its alleged com
mission with convenient certainty.
They shall be filed with the board of

of any charges as herein provided
board of police commissioners shall,
their first meeting thereafter, pro
ceed to investigate the same, and take
such action thereon as the board may
deem proper in the premises." There
is another provision which empowers
the board to remove any police officer
for any cause which It may deem suf
ficient, but attorneys say it is irregu
lar to dismiss an officer without
charges having first been filed against
him. The motion to appoint Joseph
Slnnott in Stark's stead was made by
Commissioner Cook.
