Ned Gates has lost his dog, a handsome and intelligent spaniel who acted the part of compan ion, counselor and friend to our bachelor recorder. The dog followed his master yesterday as ho mude one of the party who went down the river on the Re liance. To keep the animal from mis chief, Ned shut him up in a toilet room and somebody unwittingly let him out. While seeking hia master, who was on the bow, the dog fell overboard. The boat was opposite Lyle at the time, on the return trip, nnd it is probable tlit beast wub able to make his way to tin shore.

Tho "boys," who are old enough to be grandfathers, innocently snapped at the bargain aud handed out the money, "Now," said tho ticket-seller, "since you haye got such a bargain you can afford to treat." Tho elder of the two, a man of over 00, said: "All right. Treat goes;" aud in they went to a cigar store, or somewhere, "When the "treat" hud been disposed of the other ticket buyer said : "Lot's have another dose." "No, thanks," said tlio ticket seller j "that enough today. We'll see you later." Not till tho two innocents had presonted their checks at the door of tho play house did they find they had boen neatly sold, and then they had to hunt up Foinebody to lend them tho monev to buy tickets.

In the convention a platform committee of ono from each county in tho etato was appointed, and this committee appointed a sub-coin-mittco of five to prepare and submit draft of platform. A representative of the railroad men appeared before that committee and submitted, on behalf of tiie railroad men, the plank in question. Some of the members of tho tub-committee objected to the plank and a substitute was prepared, which is the short plank referred to by you. When t ic matter was referred to the full com mittee, tho substitute was voted down and the original plank as prepared and submitted by the railroad men was sub stituted. The platform was thon re ported to the convention. On the flo'or of the convention an attempt was again made to amend the platform by substi tuting tho short plank prepared in tiie sub-committee for the railroad plank. iThis amendment was voted down al- most unanimously, and the platform, including the railroad plank as offered by the railroad men, was adopted. The mUunderetanding of the proceed ings grew out of the fact that the Ore gouian reporter, by inadvertance I as sume, got the matter mixed up and re ported the substitute as the original. The reason why the Democratic press of the state generally fell into the eaine mistake is because we have no Demo cratic daily paper published at Portland, and the platform was therefore generally copied from the Oregor.ian, with the mittake included. The oiiiuial platform lias only just now been published, and I presume the mUtake will at once ho corrected in tho D.-inocatic papers. 1 enclose to you a copy of l lie oHleial platform under the certificate of tho chairman aud secretary of tho conven tion. If my word and tiie certificate of these ofllcers are not altogether satis factory to you, I will cheerfully furnish any number of affidavits fiom delegates and bystanders (including railroad men), I did not oppose tills plank in the convention, as stated by tho OregGiiUti, I On tho contrary I favored it etron.'ly. in the tub-committee, in the general coin- mi ttee, and also in tiie open convention, , ,,0 ,att(.T of 11, H. hangU-y, bankrupt, In as evervone knows who was there. bankruptcy. , Tlw nlftnlr lii fiiiiiptlon as 1 under.
