Agent Thayer, of the O R & N,
says that everything indicates that
boating can be carried on until a
late period this season, as the
water at present is about six feet
above the low mark. In speaking
of the light-draught boat that is at
present under construction at Ore
gon City, he staled that the craft
will be able to reach Corvallis at
any time during the summer, as
6he will not draw more than 15 or
16 inches of water with a cargo of
25 tons. This will be a good thing
for our merchants, as it will afford
eoniDetition. and this is always a
pretty hfalthy feature in transpor
tation. Our merchants, according
to Mr. Thayer, i' thev are wise and
have an eye to their future inter
ests, will at least patronize the
boats enough to encourage them to
continue on the route, so that oppo
sition mav be maintained.

Mc won oat 'in the Judgeship Fizkt.
The democratic convention

in this city to do so, the ticket
which has heretofore appearedin
the Gazette. Peter Rickard
was placed in nomination for the
. ... . -r 3 - r T- . 1 1 " ;
legislature Dy juage lvicrauaeii,
but he declined. For clerk,
Judge McFadden placed Johnny
JSrwin in nomination in open
convention, after he had been
beaten but a few moments be
fore in caucus, and" he was de-
feated by a vote of to 42. As
we stated in last Friday's issue,
Henry Hector was nominated for
commissioner and the office of
senator was left vacant Here is
the ticket:
Senator
Representative Hugh Finlev
County Judge V E Watters
Sheriff Telt Burnett

tion. M. Wilhelm and Lee Hill

tant secretary -by acclimation
McFadden moved for appoint
ment of committee of three on
credentials. Other committees
provided for were, order of busi
ness, resolutions, and permanent
organization.
A motion to nominate the en
tire county ticket at the after
noon session, was carried.
In the interim, while commit
tees were being selected, McFad
den moved about conferring with
various delegates.
McFadden moved that the va
rious committees report at 1:30
m. After this motion carried,
the following committees were
announced:

Price, W H Malone.
Order of Business G V Skel-
ton, A J Hall, G A Peterson,

AFTERNOON SESSION.
The convention was called to
order at 1:4s p.m., and the re
port of the committee on perma
nent organization, recommend
ing' that the temporary officers be
made the permanent officers, and
fcking that Mr. Hill, who was
ill, be replaced by Mr. Howell,
was adopted.
The committee on credentials
had just been accepted when J D
Howell moved that the conven
tion go into caucus for 15 min
utes. McFadden suggested that
all committees be heard first, but
the motion prevailed.
In dismissing the audience
chairman Irvine said: "I must
unwillingly request all not dele
gates to retire. I dislike to do
this, but we don't want to wash
our dirty linen in public."
The washing must have been
a consiaeraDie one, ior me cau
cus was not raised for nearly an
hour. At its conclusion the
committee on resolutions report
ed and McFadden read the reso
lutions.
The chair announced that'
nomination of officers was now
in order.
Tra Smith moved that, "as
no person was desirous of the of-,:
fice of senator, selection be leltto
county central committee." The
chair was willing to entertain' the
motion, but stated that nomina
tions tor the office were still in
order. P Avety was nominated,
but declined. McFadden nomi
nated Peter Rickard, but that
gentleman said he was not a can
didate fof that or any other of
fice. Finally Mr. Smith's motion
prevailed.
For representative, Hugh Fin
ley, of Corvallis was nominated
by acclamation.
For county judge, V E Wat
ters, cf Corvallis, was nominated
by acclamation.
For county clerk, a delegate
nominated Victor Moses. Mc
Fadden nominated Johnny Er
win. He said Mr. Erwin had
been a candidate two years ago
for the office of recorder, but
when he failed to secure the
nomination he took defeat grace
fully and put forth every energy
to elect his successful opponent.
In consideration of all this he
should be given the nomiflation
he now sought. Uut the con
vention stood by its decision in
caucus and nominated Mr. Meses

for Bush arid 40 for Rickard.
' For commissioner, Henry Hec
tor of Granger, was nominated by
acclamation.
For surveyor, ihos. M ones, 01
Corvallis, was nominated by ac
clamation. ' . .
McFadden moved to leave the
office of coroner vac ant,; as they
"expected tohave no one to bury
in Tune." Irvine remmfled him
that the opposition had no nomi
nee for this office either, imply
ing that the republicans were
not expecting many casualties
Some one placed B. F. Irvine in
nomination. ; He sought to dodge
the impending honor by stating
that there was a motion before
the house. His call for the "aye"
vote met with no response, but
the "noes" seconded like a
clap of thunder. Robert John
son moved that tne omce ot cor
-a . . O V
oner be presented to Mr. Irvine
by acclamation, and it was so or
dered. Mr. Irvine accepted in a
neat speech.

delegates to the state convention:

Preserver.
A man sometimes renders
himself ridiculous by over offi
ciousness and by' being over-zealous
of his rights.r On the other
hand, public servants are often
to blame -for carelessness and
negligence; .in the discharge -. of
their duties. ' A: striking exam
ple of both sides of the proposi
tion was afforded by an incident
which took place on a Willam
ette river steam boat about a
week ago. A gentleman on
board the boat on retiring for
the evening, could not -: find a
life-preserver under his berth
where he thought it should be
and proceeded to. hunt the boat
over ior tne same. . rie inaae
considerable powwow about life
preservers or the absence of them.
He stated that- he had traveled
the world over and had figured
in a shipwreck or two and he de
manded a life preserver.
On going to one of the officials
on the boat tne gentleman was
informed that if the boat should
sink there was no place in the
river where she would go down
entirely out of sight. Still this
did not quiet the traveling man's
fears. He made great demands
for his rights and really the mat
ter became interesting for fellow
passengers. Finally, the officer
dealing with the proposition be
came vexed and went andbegaH
throwing out life-preservers for
further orders, - - The .officer is
said not to have been very cour
teous in the manner in which he
"lammed" life-preservers about.
Now, here is- the idea in a
nutshell : It is believed that the
law requires that life-preservers
b kept in the staterooms and
other places hairdy for passengers.
If it is necessary to have them on
board any steamer it would seem
to be equally necessary to have
them where they could be found
without search. The above ac
count was furnished us by a party
who was an imoartial witness of
what transpired on this occasion
and the conclusion is that while
the traveler was perhaos a trifle
too officious and made himself a
laughing stock, one of the offi
cers was somewnai lacsing in
courtesy and attention to his
duty.
