Tho ad herents of the various candidates worked hard and did their best, but tbo citizens ticket headed by Root. M. Voatch with tbo exception of the alderman from tho hnt eloctcd by, iu some instances a large majority. As Uiiual tho way of tho averago voter is post finding out. Tho par tiz ins of Oliver Voitch were, probably tho most sanguine, up to threo o'clock at leaHt. Thoy had thoroughly canvassed the city and wero sure of enough to elect their nominee. Tho business inou's ticket supportors also had tho city canvassed and could figure out a plurality for their condidnto. As has been said beforo, "Doubtfull thiugs aro very uncertain," and tho saying held good in this case. There is but little to say and no use to feel sore. There wore three 1 well known gentlemen in tbo field for mayor. The peqple by thoir voles ha-o elected Kobert M. Ventch to serve them the coming year and have also elected representative bus inesa men to assist him in tho gov ernment of the city's affaire and all pledge themselves to do thoir duty, which we believe will be done. If their pledge are kept, tiiey should buvo the fullest mipnort tho citizens can give them; houthey fail in this respect, it will be time enough to condemn them Tho nrowth and prosperity of tho city is paramount to tho ques tion of who shall fill the offices. Tho election is over, now let evory one help so far as he may iu build ing up tbo industries which surround us and make of Cottage Giove a model, as well as tho mont prosper ous city in tho Willamette valley. WAS AN EFFICIENT OFT1CIAI,. Mr. Medley, who has served the city for the past year in 'the official capacity of mayor, may well fe;l satisfied with the work of the year One thing that is openly stated bv those who differed with him up on questions that came before the council, is that they always knew just where to find him nd that lie never dodged an issue. His knowledge of the law has been of benefit to the council in' its deliberations. Prior to his election he made no great promise", but stated he would do bis duty as be saw it. This we believe he has tried to do. It isjgenerally admitted he has been an efficient official and he carries with him the good wishes of the community. A nelition to W. O. Comor, agenr S. P. 'Railway Company, asking fos such a rate on logs, to Portland, u will enable their shipment from thit locality. It is said the proposition is being considered by tlat gontlu men and ho will meet tbo request if possible. This would be helpful to those whobavo tho timber andcannotnow dispose of it at a profit. The Astoria Herald has the fol lowing to say oji apples. Oregon is a goeat apple state, es pecially in the vicinity of Hcod River. The choicedt fruit is ship ped to eastern cities and oven to Europe where it commands a good piice" The second grade is fed to the hogs and what the hogs wona eat is sent to Astoria and sold for one and a quarter a box. Tin reason for this is that the apples bring a higher price in the eastern markets than people would be will ing to pay for them in Astoria, and sold for one and a quarter a box. The reason for this is that the apples bring a higher price in eastern markets than people would be willing to pay for them iu As toria. Nearly all the fruit shipped to Astoria from- Eastern Oregon and California is of Inferior quality except as to the price. Perfect gronuutce goeji wltliglasso MaduuuV, ,A LIVELY CITY ELECTION. (Owtlmml taim 1st ItiK'l tiou of alderman Tor the Grot wnnl, Mid those who were candidates Monday morning are now city of ficers and should, mid doubtless will, haw the full support ol the citiieus In their labor for the city. In the evening the council met and canvassed the vote, Mayor Medley announced tho names of the successful candidates and de clared them elected and all but Treasurer Kaklti and City Recorder Young took the oath of office. Ke tring Mayor Medley then in a neat ami complimentary speech in trodueed Mayor Vcateh and said in part: "Gentlemen: I have the honor to introduce to you your newly elect ed mayor, a man whom you all know personally and who has served the city before in the same capacity in a highly efficient man ner. He may well feel proud of the confidence bestowed upon him in receiving so large a vote over his distinguished competitors. I feel that in turning over the niTiirs of the city, it is into safe and cap able hands, I do not have any re grots at vaeating tue position ex- ties and associations, which I have formed with the members of the council during the past year and while we may have differed upon occasions, yet they have been hon est ones and there is only upon my part, the best of feeling toward each individual member of those with whom I have been associated iu this council chamber. I now present to you your newly elected mayor, The Hon. R. M. Vcateh.' Somethings the mayor said "Gentlemen of the retiring board, mayor and to thoso to come: I wish to express my sincere thanks. It is a pleasure to me to see that no bitterness remains from this campaign, I tried to, and re quested my friends to conduct it without bitterness or undue feeling ami have but the warmest feeling for all. l nave no Irieuus to reivar or enemies to punish, but only a square deal for all alike, with equal justice to all. "I shall during my term of office if I live, be the mayor of Cottage Grove. No doubt I will nuke mistakes but they will be of the bead, not the heart. I shall strive to advauce the interests of all so tar as possible. The laws and ordin ances will be enforced. There an times when men will come to the mayor and state the laws aro being violated, and have an idea the mayor cau at once throw some one iu jail. Wheu you know ol a vio lation of law, make affidavit to that effect and present to me and I'll seethe law inforced. I shall not make any reccommeiidations to the council tonight, but will outline and present them at the next meet ing. I suggest the council now adjourn until the evening of the roth of the 'month," which sug gestion by motion was adopted. Meunwhile the Cottage Grove band was playing upon the streets and a large-crowd bad gathered in front of the bank building where it had been announced Mayor Veatch would address them. He, w.th ex mayor Medley soon appeared upon the balcony and was agaiu intro duced by Mr. Medley in a speech similiar to the previous one. The mayor thanked the people for their confidence and pledged them his best efforts for their welfare. At the conclusion he was warmly ap plauded. Fire crackers toth small and great enlivened the evening for some hours. All .those who were defeated yielded gracefully and wished' the succesful ones well The retiring members are: Mayor Medley, recorder Wheeler, council men: Currin, Oliver Veatch and Campbell. The hold overs are, Chamberliu, Hinds and Bingham. It is a council of capable gentle men and the people have a right to expect good results trom their el forts. ROliUEDTHE GHAVK.

FEBRUARY DIVIDENDS SI1RUARY has been a good dividend-paying month in America, 43 mining and met allurgical companies reporting t" The Engineering ami Mining Jour nal a total of $12 202 725. This is nearly double the amount declared in January, partly the result of the $6,305,919 distributed as a quarterly dividend of 1.75 per cent, among the preferred shareholders of the United States Steel C orporntion. and $1-530,879, the 1 per cent, quarterly payment by the Amalga- maka Copper Company. I lie dis tribution of dividends during the month was as follows: Copper, four companies, $2,572,104; gold, silver and lead, 14 companies, $679,733; zinc, two $301,500; iron and steel, three, $6,984; coal and coke, five. $832,311: oil. 13 companies, $824.- 448; miscellaneous, two, $97,750. Continued strength 111 the metal markets, active development on eco nomic principles of promising low- grade mines, concentrated manage ment of metallurgical plants to ef fect a saving in the cost of opera tion, and a temporary cessation of labor troubles, combine to create hope of larger dividends in future.
