Before the result was announced, changes were made which gave McClellan 202 votes to 2s votes for Thomas H. Seymour. All the votes for Seymour came from Ohio, Indiana and the "border states." The McClellan nom ination was made unanimous on mo tion of the famous "bitter ender,' Vallandlgham of Ohio. Two ballots settled the vlce-presl dency. James Guthrie of Kentucky (who has been Douglas' chief oppo nent for the presidential nomination in the regular convention of 1860) led on the first ballot In a field of eight candidates. On the second ballot, however, Guthrie's name was with. drawn, and this - habit Immediately became so contagious that George H, Pendleton of Ohio (who had been runner-up on the first ballot) was unanimously chosen. McClellan and Pendleton were later defeated at the polls by Lincoln and Johnson. (To be Continued Tomorrow with the Story of the Convention of ls.) B.

In mis ivi company, Salem s own .unit or the Fifth Oregon infan try, failed to secure first daily recogl tion in inspection reports. ror neatness of barracks, neatness or Kitcnen, quality of meals served, personal appearance of men, effi ciency in drill and formations, tne company is rated as leader. By reason of the fact that very few of this organization are previous serv ice men, only two men went out as competitors in the rifle shoot. This is me mg event of the encampment, 40 of the best marksmen in the Oregon guard taking part in the tryouts. First Sergeant John T. Welsh and Private Raymond Brunkel are repre senting m company in the meet. Sgt. Welsh, who secured exceptional rating with the Oregon team at Camp Perry during the 1918 national shoot for IT. I S. military entrants, had qualified n all ranges Monday. Private Brunkel, although a new man, Is being encour aged to remain in the shoot. With these two marksmen- M com pany hopes to come In for leading hon. ors in nnal marksman qualifications.

Venator and Mr. S. Holmes. i,i;ai. iiBcu. AjaQor la snort in all trades and instead of more consum ers, why not let it be emnloved in nro- ducing more of the necessaries of life and thus cut clown the cost of living. The cost of road building ls fully leu per cent higher than It was a few years 'ago and bonds we are told are selling below par and the probability that thi building of roads will cost much less In a very short time when we get back to normal conditions when our money will build from 60 to 100 per cent more miles of road than now. We heard one of our wise solons say that the automobiles absolutely build every miles of road, but he failed to say that they took the automobiles out of the general list of taxation and placed them on a license basis. All the pro ceeds to go to the road fund and rob bing the schools, thug compelling us to tax ourselves to support the schools. Let this be as it will, there ls, however, a limit to finances and why not wait a lltle longer and get more good roads per dollar. There will be bad roads left but let us have as many miles of good roads as we can get for the mon-1 ey. L. H. SUTEK.

YOUR MONEY S PAID TO A TRUST COMPANY AND A TRU3T FUND IS HELD UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF OREGON, guaranteeing the return of a sum which, with interest earnings, will exceed over half your investment should all our holdings fail to prove up. The law of averages .nakes this improbable. A Portland business man is today offered a profit of $8,500 on his lease on a downtown location. Development around his lease has made this profit possible. Four wells in four counties in which we have leases in the last 30 days proves oar locations are right and that we are in the path of progress. : Dur leases were taken ahead of production and are now being made valuable by the development around them. Millions are now being spent in drilling around our leases and every well brought '.n near our holdings increases the value. ' Profits of 500 per cent and even more are not uncommon. Only two weeks ago $200,000 cash was paid for a lease bought eight moths ago for $400. United States Geological Survey reports show th it 77 per cent of all wells drilled in Texas today ire producers that Texas increased production last year over 100 per cent that 31 per cent of the country's refining is done in Texas and that 50 per cent of THE NEW REFINERIES NOW BEING CONSTRUCTED IN THE U.
