Lvrn (1 lvr::cd tho i.f tlirso fli'.u A farmer subscriber says the candi dates' advertising before the primaries was overdone. It will be hard to make Jonathan Bourne, Willis Duni way, and other successful candidates, believe that statement. Advertising is all right, either as a business-getter or a vote-getter. The only trouble is, some merchants and some candidates don't do enough of it. Walter L. Tooze, chairman of the Republican congressional committee of the First District of Oregon, has issued a call for a meetini? of the committee in Salem on Saturday, May 5, for the purpose of organization and to discuss any and all matters con nected with the present campaign. Rubbernecks are having a hard time of it in San Francisco. Three! prominent business men of Oregon, while viewing the ruins a few days ago, were forced to go to work with gangs engaged in cleaning up the city. The military authorities arei putting every able-bodied man at work, and no excuses are taken. MR. BOURNE WINS. The nomination of Jonathan Bourne for United States Senator was the big surprise of the primary election. Early returns gave H. M. Cake a lead of over 1000 votes and It was believed by all that this lead could not be over come. For three days Mr. Cake had been receiving teletrrams of con gratulation from his friends in Ore gon, and the news was sent to all parts of the United States that Cake had won the nomination. Mr. Bourne, himself, had conceded his defeat and had given Mr. Cake assurances of his hearty support. The late returns which gave the nomination to Bourne therefore came as a surprise to every voter In the state. The Observer was a supporter of Mr. Cake, and used every honorable means to secure his nomination. It favored Mr. Cake because it believed him to be the most suitable candidate for the office. But Mr. Bourne is the nominee of the Republican party, and, as such, is entitled to Republican sup port. Senator Gearin stands for Democratio principles; Mr. Bourne stands for Republican principles; therefore, the Ouserveu will take pleasure In supporting Mr. Bourne. As our readers are aware, the Ob berver has never favored the Direct Primary Law; neither has it favored Statement No. 1. But the present time is not the proper time for a discussion of these measures. The people have expressed their wishes at the polls, and the candidates chosen by the Re publican voters are entitled to Repub lican support at the June election. Mr. Bourne has conducted a vigorous and skillful campaign, and has amply demonstrated his ability to accomplish what he undertakes. The result of this energy and efficiency in Washington would bo felt for the great good of Oregon, and the poople would have the satisfaction of know ing that their interests would not bo neglected. The Dominations for state officers are highly pleasing to ttie Observer. All the candidates are men of high integrity and ability, and the business affairs of the state will bo safe in their hands. The ticket Is well distributed geographically, and every candidate i is worthy of the support of his party Likewise, the Republican nominees for the offices in Polk county are en titled to unanimous party support. The Observer hopes, and believes, that the Republican ticket will bo elected to a man. It will be noticed that on his journey from Seattle to Waldport, Holy Roller Crei'fleld avoided Corvallis as he would a pestilence. Evidently, he has no hankering for a second coat of tar and feathes. t:ur,:;t the -'v settlers lh :r U:. 1 no Indian never lii:ed work so ho wanted Ins snn-iv.- In not we'.l as soon as no:'! il)le. tan she inK'htilo I lie work and let him hunt.

The funeral will be held Friday afternoon at the Bap tist church. He left an aged mother, brothers and a sister. The people of this community have responded liberally to the call for help for the San Francisco sufferers.

A pretty wedding was solemnized at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Charles C, Poling, Tuesday, at noon, when their daughter Ethel Viola, was given in marriage to Rev. Guy F. Phelps, of Portland. Bishop H. B. Hartzler, D. D., of Harrisburg, Pa., spoke the words that made them husband and wife. The parlor had been decorated by Miss Josephine Armstrong and Miss Rebecca Gates with Oregon grape, ferns, and apple blossoms, and pre sented a beautiful appearance.

The following panel of jurors has been drawn to serve at the May term Saturday, and followed by some of his former victims, is again at his old tricks in a camp near Waldport. This time ho is palming himself off on his foolish followers as Jesus Christ risen from the dead, his resur rection having been his emergence from the state penitentiary, Some of his followers are said to accept him as the Risen Christ. Crefflold's trip through Benton was by private con veyance from Airlie, Polk county, to Wren, Benton county. According to all accounts, a camp Is to bo estab lished near Waldport and a revelrv n rollerisra carried on. Creffleld was accompanied by his- wife.
