OATS AND LUMBER
HAY TRAVEL WELL
It Is now very probable that a ship
ment of government oats will be made
from Portland to the Philippines on the
British steamship Inverness which is
due to arrive from Vancouver, B. C,
thortly aftor the middle of the month.
Captain Jesse M. Baker, local dlsburs-
' Ing quartermaster, received a telegram
from Washington this morning asking
If oats can be carried safely with lumber
and If so how large a shipment the In
verness can take out This matter Is
now being Investigated, and an answer
will soon be given. It Is said there Is
no question as to the practicability of
shipping oats and lumber on the sam
vessel and all that has to be really In
quired Into Is to determine the quantity
of oats that can be handled. Mr. Taylor
, of the firm of Taylor, Young & Co., In
cal agent for the steamer, sas It is his
opinion that the vessel will carry. In ad
dition to the lumber shipment, about
., 2.600 tons of oats, the, full umnunt that
the original contract culled for.
Relative to the forage shipment noth
ing definite is known at the locnl office
of the quartermaster. If the contract
awarded the Seattle firm has been can
celed Captain Baker has not been ap
prised of the fact. It Is presumrd to
.be likely that some of the Portland
bids for supplying the oats will be
accepted, but before doing so the gov
ernment Is anxious to have the matter
of transportation Inquired Into and set
tied. Taking the grade of the oats
which they offer to supply Into consid
eration, several of the local exporters
are confident that their bids are lower
than that made by Robinson of Seattle.

Welcomed Into his own home by the
cold muzzle of a revolver placed against
his nose, was the reception that.greeted
Alfred Vcrmere, who resides at 128
Washington- street, about 8:30 o'clock
last night. Vermere said that he had gone
home early, and had Just lighted tho
lamp to go Into his bedroom when-he
heard a gruff voice say: "Come on,
Bob, let's go."
Just after the words had been snoken
the muzzle of a revolver was placet!
on the point of his nose, and he was
asked to keep still. The command was
obeyed. Vormere said that he looked
straight into the face of the man who
held the weapon, and would know him
again. There were two strangers In the
room, one tall and slender, the other
somewhat shorter and heavier set. Tim
police are of the opinion that the tall
one was Bob Lucas, recently released
rrom the county jail, and they have a
clue as to the other one. .
The robbers had entered the house
through a pantry window, then opened
the front door and placed umbrellas on
the outside, to give passers-by the Im
pression that visitors wete In the house.
They then, ransacked the various room J
Vermere Is unable to state Just what
was taken. The robbers were unable
to open a trunk.
Vermere says that he heard people
talking when he entered the house, but
supposed It was members of his owr.

that they had put out all the lights. Ha
lit a lamp, spoke a few words to his
dog, and the'n started for his bedroom,

picture he exclaimed: "I believe thai
Is the man that held the gun on my
nose, or course, I may be mistaken.
but I am almost sure that this is the
fellow. I had a real good look at him
while he held his revolver to my nose."

(Jonrnal Special Sortlce.)
Dallas, Or., March 10. The Demo
cratic county central committee, of
which J; W. Klrkland of Independence,
Is chairman, and Ocsar Hayter of this
city is secretary., will meet In Dallas,
Saturday, March 19. at 1 o'clock p. m.,
for the purpose of selecting a time for
holding the county convention, and pri
maries throughout the county.
Tho time for holding the convention
will probably be set about one week af
ter the Republican convention. In the
county election of two years ago the Re
publicans elected only two men, the
Democrats nillug every other office. Also
In the congressional election last spring.
Polk gave Renmes, the Democratic can
didate a good plurality over Blnger
Hermann. Therefore, the Democrats
think their prospects for carrying the
county very bright.
in the Republican ranks all Is not har
mony. Scott Loughary of this city, has
recently announced himself a candi
date for the senatorial nomination, E.
C. Kirkpatrick. a hop grower and cap
italist of this city, has been a candi
date for somq time, and these two gen
tlemen will oppose each other In the
home precincts This Is liable to cause
not a little soreness In the Republican
ranks.
Court Hons Votes.
Taxes are being paid Into the sherfffs
ofllce at a lively rate. Sheriff Ford and
Deputy Staats, assisted by County
Treasurer Dalton, are working early and
late writing out receipts and making en
tries. The total tax for the year 1903,
amounts to 1121.349.62. To secure the
three per cent rebate, the taxes must be
paid Into the sheriff's ofllce before
March 15, and a number are availing
themselves of this privilege.
The county registration is proceeding
very slowly. Bo far only about 33 per
cent of the voting strength have reg
istered. April and May are generally
the heaviest registration months.

POLK COUNTY HAS
STRONG MACHINE
(Journal Special fiarrlc.)
Independence, Or., March 10. The
battle between bosses' factions and
ofllce-seekers grows hotter all the while.
But the greatest confusion was caused
by the editorial In last week's Polk
County Observer, which practically
barred all aspirants (except one) and
claimed that a chosen few in Dallas had
been authorised by the Republicans of
the county, to name the man for the
convention to nominate or, rather, ratify
his nomination. E. C. Kirkpatrlok was
announced and eulogized as the grand
old Republican for senator. The Ob
server did not slop here, but proceeded
to prohibit and bar one Ecott Longhary
from entering the race, who, after see
in the Observer, becomes a candi
date, which now makes three in the
fight, but since two- are .in Dallas, It
would seem that ..the odds are now in
favor of J. M. Starks, and unless more
candidates are sprung ha will likely, b
the man the . Democrats will have to
oppose in June.
