She Picked Up a "Grounder" and Died from the Effects of It. A valuable milch cow belonging to Mrs. T. J. Gallaher met death Mon day in a manner unrecorded, per haps, of any other cow on this hemis phere. Ray Gallaher had just bought a league ball at Proebstel's, and by practicing at home was perfecting himself in the national game. He "muffed" a "fly" thrown into the air, and as the ball rolled along the ground it was suddenly seized by the C6W under the mistaken impression that it was some delicate morsel par ticularly suited to her gastronomy. Ray had paid $1.26 for the ball, and strongly objected to the cow's unwar ranted interference with the gamo on account of her ignorance of national league rules against chewing the ball, as well as "chewing the rag"' with the umpire. He promptly gave chase ad tried to get the sphere out of her mouth, L'Ut she hung on like a poli tician to a Sinecure, soon sne nau it half swallowed, " after a period of desperate choking She departed to that mysterious pasture" from which no quadruped returns, Jeaving a young calf mntherless.--;Weston Lead':..

The latter has made a spirited canvass, but the gen eral feeling is that Hull will win out easily. Gen. Lee Honored in Boston. Boston, Mass., March 7.

POLITICS IT HOME TO WHOM THE NOMI NATIONS MAY GO Combinations Being Made as the Fighting Progresses; a Number of Candidates for State Senator; Those who Want Other Offices. " 'a r , nnm, nf Z, 8 vo-- "ft of the couple of dozen II 1.. 1 A. ll. I - XI . A men who are aspirants for the differ ent positions, the nominations to which will be made at the republican county convention to bo held at the court house in Pendleton on Wednes day, March 12, and at the democratic convention to bo held later. It;would however, require the gift of clalr voyancy developed to a remarkable degree to fortell the names of those who will be nominated. In fact, It is impossible, owing to the numerous combinations which will undoubtedly be made as the campaign progresses. The preliminary political battle is being waged today between the friends of Judge Stephen A. Lowell and W. J. Furnish. Upon the out come thereof hangs the hopes of the condidates for county positions. Again, the result of the republican county convention will have an im portant bearing upon the nominations which will be made by the democratic county convention. The Senatorial Office. First in importance, perhaps, par ticularly from a political standpoint, after the favorite son for governor, has been decided upon, is that of state senator. Umatilla is entitled to one state senator, and, in connection witli Union county, a joint senator. On the republican side a number of candidates are in the field, the more prominent being the following: Dr. F. W. Vinent, Judge J. J. Balleray and Hon. T. C. Taylor, of Pendleton; Hon. G. W. Proobstel, of Weston. It has been rumored for the past ten days that-the Furnish faction was willing to allow Mr. Taylor to have this nom ination. The Lowell crowd are not willing to admit, for the fractional part of a second, that Mr. Taylor' nomination depends upon the willingness or unwillingness of the Furnish contingent. Mr. Tay lor has been a lifelong republican and gained the honorable distinction of being the president of the senate at the last session of the legislature of which he was a member. He has recently expressed himself as being anxious to have a strong ticket nom inated, regardless of hi$ personal as pirations. It is a possibility that Mr. Taylor might be the nominee for joint senator, in case the struggle In Union county should result in a dead locit'benTC"" tlie branclies of the par rv there "controlled by J. M' ChurCl'i and .1. M. Scriber, That wouiu giYt . 1 i 1 Mr. Proebstel pretty fair sailing, pro viding the Lowell men control the republican county convention. The nomination of a joint senator is con ceded to Union county if it unites up on either Church or Scriber with a reasonable degree of unaninilty. It is quite a natural inference that Dr. F. W. Vincent will receive the nom ination if the Furnish star should lie on the ascendant, this prediction be ing based upon his management of Pendleton municipal affairs, hut more particularly in his ability shown in conducting the campaign of poll' tics as chairman of the central com mittee. a position giving him full scope for his executive ability, which is acknowledged by all to he of a high order. Judge Balleray has many friends who would be pleased to as slst him to obtain anything within reason. He has fought many a good fight for his party and has seldom asked anything for himself. Dr. Smith for Senator. On the democratic side but one name, that of C. J. Smitji, of Pendle ton, has been mentioned with any particular assurance as a candidate for state senator. Umatilla county is entitled to two members of the .lower house. Three prominent republican candidates are T. J. Kirk, who is a representative at present; L. M. Watrus, of Adams; Claud Steen, of Milton, with several other precincts to hear from. The name of Sheriff William Blakley has been montloned aB a democratic nom inee. He refused to give the sub ject much consideration when asked about, it not being personally anxious lor the position. As Mr. Blakley lias jiover refused to respond and assist in the battles of his party 1J. is rea sonable to suppose that ho will not refuso the nomination If tendered him by a unanimous convention. Ho has been honored by his party In the past, and, if nominated, will cause a hustle on the part of his republican oppon ents to keep him from winning. Candidates for Sheriff. The candidates for the shrievalty nomination on tho republican ticket are M. J. Carney, of Pendleton; C. A. Barrett, of Athena; F. M. Kimberk, of Adams; F. S. Curl, of Pendleton. Mr. Carney was Georgo E. Porringer's closest competitor for tho nomination two years ago, and .acted gracefully after having been defeated. It Is quite probable that he will bo selected for the position this year. On the democratic side there are but two as pirants, Til D, Taylor, who has been Sheriff Blakloy's efficient deputy for the pnBt four years; and John M. Heathman, until recently Pendloton's mnrshnl. The con 'tuition will decide between the aitils or the two men The Clerkship Post. For clerk It niny be statcll with' a reasonable degree of certainty that William D .Chamberlain, of Athonn, will bo selected as the democratic nominee. As an opponent, Mr. Cliamheiialn will probably havo Frank O. Rogers, also of Athena, al though George A. Cowl, of Milton, ma yget the nomination. Both Air. Cowl and Mr. Rogers seem to be somewhat undecided as to whethor to try for the clerkship or recorder Bhip nomination. Charles H. Marsh, chief deputy In the recorder's office under Recorder James W. Moloney, and in charge since July 1, when Mr. Maloney ac cepted a position in tho Pendleton Savings bank, has tho inside track for the democratic nomination. The two most prominent republican candidates for recorder are H. A. Faxon, who was chief clerk In the sheriff's offce for four "years under Sheriff Houser; nnd W. H. Folsom, of Pilot Rock. It is said also that John E. Bean has fixed his covetous eye upon tho position. Mr. Bean is stock inspector at present. The Trcasuryshlp. S. K. YaFes, of Milton, who holds the office at present; and B. F. Renn and Dr. E. J. Summorvillo, of Pendle ton, are after tho republican nomi nation for treasurer. No name has ben mentioned out loud for the democratic nomination for treasurer or ommlsslonor. How ever, in connection with tho office of treasurer, W. D. Hansford's name has been suggested, and he would make a good run, being in every way fitted for the trust. Jerry Durham, of Pilot Rock, wants the re publican nomination for commission er to succeed T. P. Gilliland, of Ukiah. Mr. Gilliland states that he has" served two terms of four years each in that responsible and onerous position, and, if consulting . his own personal Inclinations, would decide to take a rest. His friends here have been insisting that he again make the race, and if the nomination should be tendered to him it would be a plain case of the office seeking the man. George Buzan Is a candidate to suc ceed himself as assessor, and as op ponent for the republican nomination will have Alex Hudson, of McKay, and Charles A. Frazier of Pendleon. 'John Wf. Kimbrell will be before the republican convention as an opponent of Charles E. McComber, who has been serving In that capacity for the past two years. Mr. Kimbrell held the position -for a number of terms, but refused to allow his name to go before the last convention, thus giv ing Mr. McComber a clear field. Slow in Coming Forward. Democratic candidates for treasur- r, surveyor and coroner are bIow in coming to the front. Georgo a. Hartman, Sr., county judge, when in terviewed as to -who would bo the democratic nominee, said: "That matter will be decided by the conven tion in truly democratic style. Since Furnish went over to the republican narty it is impossible to tell In ad vance who are going to be nommau ed, as the convention is run without bosses." It is quite likely that Dr. W. G. Colo will again bo chosen as coroner on the republican ticket, to which po sltion he was elected two years ago The Result at the Primaries. The result at the primaries being held today will largely govern the MISSES Dongola Kid Extension Soles Pair Stitched Patent Leather Tip A Stylish, Dressy Shoe and one that will give Satisfactory Wear . . .
