Bishop Oxendea.
Washington, Feb. 23. The president
today sent the name of William B. Gil
bert of Portland, Oregon, to the senate
for conciliation as United States- circuit
judge for the ninth judicial circuit. Mr.
Gilbert baa been in Portland since 1872
and has practiced law daring the time,
He came here from Michigan,- where he
had graduated from the Ann Arbor law
school, and through that became a mem
ber of the state supreme court bar. He
was born in Fairfax county, Virginia,
forty-four years ago. The family re
moved to Ohio later, and afterward to
Massachusetts. Mr. Gilbert then, en
tered Williams college, in the western
part of the state. He took the regular
four vears' course there, and left the
state soon afterward to accept a position
on the geographical- survey in Ohio.
Ihree years were spent in this work, so
that he became very well acquainted
with the recources of . Ohio. When
about 23, left this work and entered the
law school at the University of Michi
gan. He completed the course there,
and graduated in 1872. He came im
mediateiv to Oregon, ' where be soon
entered upon . the practice of the law
which, he baa since followed, with honor
and profit to himself. He has been con
cerned in many of the large suits that
have come up in Northwestern courts
Probably the most important was that
of the foreclosure of the Farmers' Loan
and Trust company's mortgage on the
Oregon and California. This case in
volved 10,000,000 or $12,000,000, and
lasted two or three' years, when it' was
finally won, and Richard Ktehler was
appointed receiver. He has done a great
deal of legal business for the Scotch
mortgage and loan firms which have
branches in Portland. Mr. Gilbert has
not been a Union Pacific attorney, as
has been alleged and used as an argu
ment against his nomination. He ha
at times given that company advice
when their assistant counsel, Mr. Snow
was out of the city. But he has never
carried on a case for them in the courts
Mr. Gilbert 5s a married man and has
five children, one boy and four girls,
His wife is a daughter of the late Rev,
Dr. Lindsley, who was for many, years
the leading Presbvterian divine of the
northwest. , . . :
Senator Rill Speaks.
Albany, beo. 23. senator Jim was
present, and was introduced to the con
vention as the Young Hickory by Gen
Sickels, and it is the greatest erithusi
asm. - After quiet was restored he made
a flaming speech, gracef ally acknowledg
ing the act of the convention -toward
him, he said:. "When the democracy
of America rises, it means . an upheaval
at the ballot-box, a change of their ser
vants,' and political reform. This . is
true democracy.' This is a government
of, by and for the people. When you
see tbe farmers arousing and allied,
when you see all the federations of labor
stirring, when yon see in every state the
great democratic party up and afoot, it
means that the reign of , plutocrats is
nearly out and the bright day of democ
racy is approaching. The record of the
party was revieweu ul leugiu. -
THE OREGON PACIFIC.
An "Unknown Correspondent' Weddsd.
Cadiz, O., Feb. 23. George E. Wright,
of Pine Valley, Oregon, arrived in town
yesterday morning to call on an "un
known correspondent," who proved to
be prepossessing and romantic . girl
named Ida Green. His most eanguine
expectations were realized.' As he was
passing fair and had brought with him
satisfactory proofs that he was the flour
ishing owner of a 1000-acre stock farm,
the young lady accepted his proposals.
Last night Mr, and Mrs. Wright de
parted for their Western borne.
. The Vanderbllts Intention.
Nsw York, Feb. 23. Rumor has it
that Commodore Vanderbilt's dream has
been realized. The Vanderbilt system
secured control of the St. Paul eystem,
and that the grand alliance now includes
the St.. Paul, the Northwestern and
Union Pacific. That is, a thorough line
from New York to the Pacific at Port
land and San Francisco. ' If true, it is
the most important railroad deal in
many years. The storv is denied by
Depew. who says the Commodore never
had such a dream. -

Corvallis, Feb. 23. In the matter of
the confirmation of the sale of the Ore
gon Pacific railroad, Judge Flinn ap
peared in court and filed a petition be
fore Judge Pipes in behalf of Zeph Q.
Job, the purchaser, asking for a contin
uance' of sixty days to raise the balance
of the money and alleging that he had
made arrangements to have the money
here at the time specified, but that a
suit begun in the United States court
interfered and upset his plans. It was
further alleged that the money was to ,
be procured from parties in Mew York
and London, who are still ready and
willing to furnish the cash, as soon as
the case now pending in the United
States court is settled satisfactorily to
them.' J. R. Bryson appeared in behalf
of the Farmers' Loan & Trust company
and filed a motion that the $25,000 paid
in be forfeited and another sale be or
dered. The motion was denied and the
petition of Job granted.
