The plan of the campaign was to
aecure general cooperation of all the
moral and religious forces or the county
to urge upon the district attorney and
aherirr that they 'do their duty against

drumnoad consultation was held a few

Mr. Tufts and four of the pastors of

to their aid and after a brief but vigor?

Washington, Aug. 7. There is

grand Jury, which meets In Chicago Au

Harrlman'a management of the Chicago

charged that the railroad 'granted
thousands of rebates to the Standard

criminal prosecution of E. H. Harrl

will be one result of the recent dis

"In some cases It Is the opinion of
most prosecuting ornoers tnat tne law

Washington. D. C, Aug. 7. Senator
Jonathan Bourne, while not mentioning
the matter from the housetops, is the

to Oregon people who visit the national
capital have the desired effect, the peo
ple of the Beaver state will sanction
Senator Fulton's return to the senate.
