brought th steamer Elmore down from
Tho Dalles yesterday, and will probably

was kept there In case of emergency.
Frequently during high water there is
a washout on the railroad at that point,
and had one occurred thla year it waa
tha Intention to have transferred the
passengers and freight around the wash

ntpointmem of John W. Jdlnto as. post
master. Tne appointment will leave a
vacancy in the internal revenue depart-
. menu where &llnto is now a deputy col
lector,- and there is soma difference of
opinion aa to his successor. The belief
Is general that one of Mlnto's flrat of
ficial acts will be to request the resig
nation, of C A. Burckbardt, the assist
"'ahCpostmastor. ,! ':' .
J..AL Hansbrough of Roseburg, who
was joint representative from Douglas
and Jackson counties In the last legis
lature, is a candidate for tha vacancy
in the Internal revenue office, and as
he has the friendship of both Senator
Mitchell and Senator Fulton, his chance
tor the appointment are considered good.
41 is true mat colonel xsunn, ui mwr
rial revenue Collector, haa urged that the
' vacancy be filled by the promotion of
one of the meu already employed In the
office, but he will probably be overruled
tor political reasons. : , ,..
Hansbrough has been a strong factor
in Republican politics in his legislative
- district and baa powerful backing from
"the railroad employes, who cast a heavy
vote In Pouglaa county. For some time
past however, Hansbrough haa been at
outs with A. C. Marsters," the head of tho
local Republican organization, and the
latter waa responsible for Hansbrough's
failure to s receive a. renomlnation thla
year for the legislature. The railroad
men ' keenly . resented , thla action and
. ' made their resentment felt In the elec
tion, when Marsters, who had been re
nominated for the state senate on the
'.regular ticket, was defeated by about
i. 00. plurality, despite ' the fact that
Douglas county is normally Republican
fcy about 400. The defeat was all , the
more signal for tho reason that MarsUrs
was . the manager of Hermann's cam
paign and was a strong- factor In secur
ing his renorai nation. -A"-- .,..tf xv : '
With the Republican' organisation of
. hia county behind him, Marsters Is now
. opposing Hansbrough's appointment to
; the internal revenue ' of flee. ; ; How ef
fective this opposition may be is a mat
. ter of -conjecture, but some of th po
ll tioal. wiseacres express the belief that
the list o far aa tha grain exports are
mcerned. Galveston leads With a total
wheat shipment up to June 1, according
to a statement prepared by the depart
ment of commerce and labor, of 17,074,

sons are readily found for the light ship

of them Is because Australia raised a

But perhaps the principal reason for
the light shipments . of . tha past 11

greater amount of wheat went to the

before known. Foe the first six months
