A few third jiarty Prohibitionists met
bore Saturday for tho iiurKso of putting
ip a ticket (butjthoy did not (jet to work un
til too lato to Kot a dellnlto report for Sat
urduv's Issue. Tho meeting was first
ealle'd to order in tho court houso. but
for reasons hereafter set forth, tho busi
ness was llnlshcd in tlio council room.
Stato Oruani.er J. W. Webb, of Salem,
came up Saturday morning to Ihj In at
tendance. Tho mooting was called to or
der by S. L. Iturrell, of Adams, chairman
of the county central committee, and was
opened by prnyor from Huv. Hichardson,
of Adams'. Mr. Webb then made a short
address, in which ho clearly set forth lho
objects and business of tho meeting.
There had been a stir all tho morning
111110111! I looser uml YouugV "wire pull
ers," and it was evident that some plan
was iK-'Ing liatciieu iy which uio rouven
t ton was to bo corralcd. Tho suspicion
was verillod when It camo tluto to elect a
clmirnian. 8. L. Ihlrrcll, of Adams, and
V. J. Carlson, of reiulleton, wero nomi
nated. As every ono in tho convention
voted. Carlson was elected. Mr. Webb
stated that it was customary to circulate
a third party pledge, and limit tho voters
control of ureal areas of country.
Fourth Should maintain tho pilnciples
of tho Inter-State commerce law and
should niako such charges as will prevent
extortion or discrimination against per
sons, places or products.
Fifth Should Issue all moneys direct
and make all moneys so Issued ii full lo
gal tender for all puriioses.
Sixth Should provide for electing
United States Senators by a direct vote of
tho people.
Seventh Should declare tho modern
"trust" and other combinations artlllclal
nrices to bo n consnlrucv air.tlnst tho com
mon welfare, and that It bo punished ac
cordingly.
Kighth Should abolish tho internal
lovenuo and correct tho iueoiialltles and
eliminate the uuiust discriminations of
the iiiesent tarill" schedule.
Ninth Should vigorously enforce the
prohibition of tho importation of contract
labor, prevent the landing, so far as jms
slide, of all anarchists, criminals ami
pauiiers.
The Prohibition party pledges itself to
do these things whenuver it obtains con
trol of the government.
Resolved, That wo tender our thanks
to Messrs. J. 11. Turner and H. .1. Bean,
resectlvely, for tho prompt oiler of tho
use of their olllces, after that certain well
known Itopubllcan leaders of reiulleton
had had tho impertinence ami unfairness
to virtually deny us tho iiso of the court
house, granted us for the purose of
holding n prohibition eon volition, in which
capacity we had assembled.
They now proceeded to nominate the
representatives to the State convention,
who wero ltov. 1. N. Hichardson, of Ad
ams, ltov. l'ruett, of Weston, ami N.
Pierce, of Milton.
.1. Y. Martin moved that tho Prohibi
tionists endorse .1. II. Haley for joint
senator, but tho motion was lost. O. F.
Thompson, of lvcho, was thou nominated
joint senator hv acclamation.
.1. W. Stanley then moved that no
more nominations be made, owing to tho
fact that they did not know who wero tho
third party Prohibitionists, which was
carried out, only two voting against it.
Tho apiHiintmeut of committee men fol
lowed, in which all tho precincts but
eight had to ho left vacant owing to tlio
fact that they wore not represented in lho
convention ami tlioy did not know whom
to appoint. Power was vested in tho com
mittee apK)inted to till the vacancies ami
substitute names for those appointed in
tho convention, as they saw tit. Tho fol
lowing aro tho precincts lepresented:
North and South Pendleton, Adams,
Weston, Ceutervillo, Milton, Ktho, Helix
and I'nloii.
In tho ovoninir. Mr. Webb addiessed
an audience at tho otiora house, hi which
ho scored tho Republicans for their action
in the convention to thoso who signed, in tho convention, ami It Is evident that
This was straightway objected to, and a
motion was made ly .Mr. MioomiiKer,ami
eariiod, that all who voted for tho amend
ment last fall bo entitled to vote. This
practical I v placed tho convention in tho
hands of Ilia ltoimliKcans, and tho Prohi
bitionists left, Messrs. . I. II. Turner and
II. .1. lic.in tendering the uso of their
otliees. Tlio council room was. decided
upon, and tlioy repaired thither, wliero s.
I,. Iturrell was oicctcn cuairmaii nun
ltov. 1. N. Ulchardson secretary.
The Republicans, after tho Prohibition
ists had left, resolved that theio was no
need of a third paily in the Hold, and ad
journed.

to bands of music and circus posters this
is rare in these days of Itanium char
latanism ami noise.' We accept It as an
engaging qtialitv in the now Chief Jus
tice. It will not pass without observation
that this great olllco, the most ini jnirt utit
in our governmental system after tho
Presidency, goes outside of tho channels
of olllclal promotion and professional am
bition. W hat should lie a prl.o to tho
foremost lawyer hi tho land or a piomo
tion to tho most worthy justice on tho
Supremo llench Is given to a gentleman
outside of the court, and known, if
known ovcuthcio, only in what might bo
called tlio technical 'inner circles of tho
law. Wo are not sure this is for tlio best,
or that it is cither ltepubllcan or Demo
cratic In practice. Wo might oxjiect it in
Uiisla, where the C.ar's will is auto
cratic, but not in a republic, where the
palm should await the most virtuous ami
most diligent. And unless wo are willing to
concede to tho President absolute discre
tion, thero aro grave reasons for doubting
whether it is in harmony with our Institu
tions that the greatest olllco in his gift
should bo licstowcd upon a gentleman al
most unknown hi u proud ami conspicu

.Mr. Fuller comes tons, therefore, solely
on the Picsidcnt's recommendation. And
while wo mav regret that long service of
