St. Louis, July 1. "Parker will be nominated on the second ballot lu my opinion," said former Senator Turner ot Washington, this morning. "If It were not for Bryan's attltudo Parker would be nominated on the first ballot, 1 believe. Unquestiona bly, Bryan Is going to exert a great deal of Influence ln the convention, but the democratic party is not going to nllow any one man to run it, jio matter how much he Is loved and ad mired. "Parker's refusal to submit to In terviews while he occupied a Judicial position, has added to his strength. Tho Washington delegation will bo for Parker without a doubt. Hearst money prevented the adoption of In structions, but the sentiment Is strong In Washington and other Pacific coast states for Pnrker and a conservative platform." A meeting of the Washington and Oregon delegations was held last night and today to lay plans to influ ence other delegations In the direc tion of Turner's availability for sec ond place.

On almost every proposition now advanced here there Is the query, "What will Bryan do about it?" The Nebraska!! will arrive Sunday, accord it's to present plans. It became known today that Bryan will urgo thnt any man who did not support tho ticket In 1890 or 1900 would mnko n weak candidate. Few so-called conservatives will. fill thut bill.

O'llrlen, who has been super intendent of the road, will bn mado general superintendent of tho O, R, & N. 1 1 In duties will bo largely tho same In the new position us in the ono he has before occupied.

Pendleton, July I, (To tho Editor) Having now retired from tho office, of county Jutlgo, 1 desire to stato through jour columns, thnt I havo la Wired faithfully to Improvo tho finan cial condition of tho county and to Improvo the roads nnd the county property generally. Tint county debt has boon nmtorl ally reduced without Increasing tho taxes for general purposes, (thu oxtra tax has been for stnto purposes.) A general Improvement Is notlcoablo In the roads nnd bridges, much perma nent work having been dono, Tho whole campaign fund ot tho ro publican cummltteo besides n largo sized private sack was used against me, lu tho purchaso of tho floating voto nml then I was only dofoatod by 30 voIoh, which when compared .with tho votes of Barrett, Balloray, Adams ami Rlgby, tho defeated repub lican, Is certainly very complimen tary lo mo. I hesltnto to stoop so low as to no tice tho Tribune or Its "sissy" editor, for I havo defended my chickens from skunks, and as their method ot fight ing nml tho result Is well known, I will let tho readers malto their own comparisons, Every stntement mntlo through tho Trlhuno was fuiao, Thtilr attempted steals wero suo coHsfully bonded off, and I hero and now charge K. V- Dodd with swearing to what was absolutely falso. I also chargo Frank Curl and his henchmen with distributing circulars and doing other dirty work thus plac ing themselves In Uodd's class, nnd because Commissioner Horace Walk er refused to kneel to them and allow out of the people's money several hundred dollars of unjust Trlbuuo printing bills, they took his campaign assessment and used It against lilm. I tlou't know whether my opponent approved this dirty work or not, but I will say thut had our managora per mitted any such mutl-sllnxlng against him I would havo stopped It or with drawn from tho ticket. Having plenty of business of my own lo look utter, I only consented to accupt tho nomination when urged by muny of tho hoaviest taxpayers of both parties, who approved my con duct of comity business. The work ronmictcd with thu office takes a great deal of timo, Is vexa tious ln many ways, especially whoro grarts like I ho ones attempted by tho Tribune and Dodd must bo looked ufter six times a year, when attorneys threaten to bring suit If wo don't al low their steals, but Justlco compels mo to suy that Dotld's attorney advis ed him not to press his claim, hut take what was offered him, us he could not collect more. To my successor and my associ ates In the conduct ot county business thu pant four years, I wish unbounded success and I thank tho people who stood by mo so nobly. Having dono iny duty us I saw It, I am perfectly willing to accopt tho popular vordlct and will rust easy In the belief that timo will fully vindi cate me. Respectfully, Q. A. HA HTM AN.
