There are many voters who do not under stand the methods of writing theii brillot and necessarially make ninny mistakes, thereby causing theii -vote to be ineffectual in part if not as a whole. As an illustration the candidates for representatives foi all parties are together, in smal type with the party to which the candidate belongs opposite the name of the candidate. Over the group of names at the right hand in small tvna is the sentence "vote for three." So small and in so ob scure a place is this sentence that the average voter does not notice it. Many voters forget the number of representatives fo: whom they are entitled to vote, anc not infrequently do they pass theii ballot in after having voted foi only one. Such was the case ir Cottage Grove: It is known to b a fact that some 20 voters in these precincts failed to vote for the ful number of representatives. There should be a more definite way t acquaint the voters with the propel number of candidates to be voted for. That low grade ore may bt worked with profit by modern methoels was demonstrated last year at the De Lamar group ol mines in Mercur, Utah; 128,804 tons of ore, averaging about S3. 5c per ton aud giving a return ol $449437 was worked at a cost o! $1.16 per ton for mining the ore and 72 cents tor muling, leaving a net profit of $146,010 for the year. From tailings, which had a valine of$i.og per ton, a net profit of 60 cents was realized, the treatment costing 49 cents per ten; $10,531 was the net profits from the tailings.

Pretty near it on May 7, corn was worth 456 cents a bushel in the New York market. Silver was worth 59J6 cents on the same day. In 1896, at tli time of Bryanic prophecies as to free silver, corn, was worth only 2 1 cents on the farm. But it has kept on ad vancing in price under the gold standard. Grants Pass Observer.

Louisville Journal'.. Ulection dny was quiet anil or derly in Cottnge Grove. Little ex citeraent prevailed and the best o: nature existetl among the hardest workers who lined up for the day hard work. Considerable work was done on both sides but in lttiet and business like manner The voting commenced early in th morning and was steady all day, in .'ither precinct. After the closing of the poll icarly everyone went home, and it is a conservative assertion to state that not to exceed 25 men awaited election returns from litigene. GKN'KRAI, KUSUI.T.

Multnomah county came as near throwing the republican party of the state in disgrace as it could and not do it and the fusion element at home and abroad are getting their only solace from that locality However, whatever result may be forthcoming from that county the republicans are to blame for it But 111 a sense they are not re sponsible, either. There is a limit to man's consistency likewise to the consistency of a great party The Oregonian, while great credit must be given it for its many gigantic efforts, iu behalf of repub licanism, is in a sense an agitator in republican ranks, and much of the dissatisfaction and bitterness ex isting today among the republicans of Maltuomah county can be easily placed at the door of the Oregonian. The Oregonian is a great political warrior ranking high among the greatest, but it is not always con sistent. in tlie campaign just closed had the Oregonian so de sired, Multnomah would have given a complete republican victory. Congressmen Tongue and Moody were elected by increased plu ralities. A Washington dispatch under date of June 5 has the following: The republicans in both houses and the administration are rejoic ing tonight at the signal victory won for the party in Oregon. The democrats are especially dis heartened, and are trying to gather some comfort out of the result in Multnomah county. Oregon is redeeming herself beautifully. It takes something besides "is- ims" to down republican principles. THIRD ANNUAL REUNION. The Lane County Veteran Asso ciation Will Convene at Eu gene, June 12,. 13, and 14.
