It now appears that the prohibition
party of Multnomah county will have to
do the. business of nominating a county
ticket all over again. Section 31 of the
. Australian ballot law provides that can
didates must be nominated in one of
three ways. One is by a convention of
delegates representing a political party
which at the election next preceeding
' polled at least 3 per cent, of the entire
vote cast in the state, precinct, or other
electoral district for which the nomina
tions were made. As the prohibition
party had no ticket in the field in 1890,
the convention which met in Portland
last Wednesday had flo power to make
nominations under this provision.
Neither had it power under the provis
ion that allows an organized body of
" electors, numbering not less than 100, to
make nominations, as there , were only
62 electors in the county assembly. It
appears that the convention in question
acted illigally in delegating, the work of
nominating a county ticket to a com
mittee which had not completed the
work when the convention adjourned.
As leading men of the party in Multno
mah county have announced their de
termination to place a full county ticket
in the field it is quite likely that another
assembly of county electors will be called
'together to do the work.
Special Agent Seavery, according to
instructions from the commissioner of
the general land office, has investigated
the matter of setting apart a suitable
number of sections of land around the
the base of Mount Hood for a' public
park and is prepared to make a favorable
report, and "all that is now needed" says
the Oregonian "is a recommendation
from some respectable body of citizens to
back up that of Mr. Seavery." As Mr.
Seavery goes to Washington in a lew
days, where he would give the matter
"personal attention, it would surely not
be out of place if the republican state
convention, tkat meets in Portland on
the 6th would pass a resolution making
the recommendation required.
Grant county made the mistake of ac
cepting the findings of the state board of

on certain clases of property" in that
-county and now the Blade advises the
'.taxpayers not to pay the advance to the
.sheriff, on tbe ground that should the
-' supreme court decide adversely to the
state board the tax-payers would have
uiuiuuiv; iu etuug vueir money DaCK.
"Keep your money until you have to
-pay it" says the Blade ; ' then, and, not
' till then will be time enough to pay."
" Thanks to the wisdom of the county
cou't of Wasco county we are spared
- -such confusion here. ' -
There is a refreshing? frankness in the
following from the Athena Press:
We advise the leading lights of the
different political parties to see this
" shop at once, on a matter of business
.that would not do for our readers to
.know or in other words, somebody has
fot to "whack up" shortly. We want a
rick building and a power press out .of
vv this campaign. . ,
'The republicans of Umatilla county
' have also put themselves" on record as
favoring a law that shall provide for a
.reasonable, just and equitable system of
.. salaries for county officers. . The Chron
icle, if we mistake not, was the first
newspaper in Oregon to advocate this
reform and now one. or other of the two
great political parties in some half
dozen counties in Eastern Oregon have
. taken the matter up in their county
conventions. . ..
- And now the ingenious heathen Chinee
is evading the'restriction act by coming
.to British Columbia, being naturalized
as a subject of Great Britain and-moving
Into the United States as a British sub-
. ject. - " .
The republican convention of Jackson
county refused to instruct its delegates
to the state-convention but it is under
stoood that a majority is.. in favor of
Hermann for congress 'with' Miller as
second choice. "
Baker connty democrats denounce the
state board of equalization and demand
a repeal of the mortgage tax law 'and the
law allowing 33 per cent to the statutory
fees of clerk and sheriff of the county.
(Amusement for tUe Baby. .
Mr. Waldrige surprised his baby Bun
day night. He didn't intend to surprise
it; he intended to amuse. He had been
to church, and on reaching home drew
his revolver from bis -pocket to put it
away. Baby reached for the weapon.
If baby wanted it, baby must have it, so
papa took out the cartridges every one
of them and then to show baby how to
operate the toy, he pulled the trigger.
That was where the baby was surprised!
It would surprise any baby to see its
papa shoot the cook stove on .a quiet
Sunday night with an unloaded revolver,
when the cook stove was quietly pursu
ing its vocation and digesting hardwood
at the rate of an armful an" hour.
Myrtle Point West Oregonian
It Was Hot.
Some wretch, who evidently delights
to see mankind sweltering. in perspira
tion, played a rascally practical joke on
about two hundred passengers who were
in the waiting room of the Staten Island
ferry. ' For some reason, the arrival of
the long expected boat was delayed; the
crowd was therefore large, and -as the
night was intensely warm, the atmos
phere in that 'close room was. not only
enervating, but distressing. The weather
was unanimously voted to be the warm
est of the season hot enough to parboil
a Hottentot. It was then discovered
that the Turkish bath temperature had
been caused by a practical joker, who
had unfeelingly turned on the steam
heat. Yankee Blade. -
The Potato with the Iron Mask.
J. T. Choate, Esq-, showed us this
morning a veritable curiosity taken from
the ground by his father while - digging
potatoes on his place. It was a. heel
Iron from a lady's boot, through the cen
ter hole of which had grown a potato.
The iron was nearly in the. center, and
on each side was a growth nearly large
enough to hide the iron, which f ormed a
metallic collar, around the center of it.
