Gearin will not be in any hurry hereafter to urge a special ses sion of the Oregon Legislature. A dispatch from Washington says that after Senator Gearin had joined with Senator Fulton in sending a tele graphic message to Governor Cham berlain urging an extra session of the Legislature to make an appropriation fortheSan Franciscosufferers, friends called his attention to the possibility that if such a session were called it would have the power to elect a United States Senator, and, being a Republi can body, would probably terminate Gearin's official term. It is said that the Democratic Senator almost fell over himself in hia haste to send a second dispatch, asking the Governor to disregard the former message. The Senator has been compelled to hear many joking references to the matter from his colleagues. conducted his preliminary campaign' --'t U i t iu in a clean and couneous manner, f SflS ; treating his opponents with deference' iv- .. cr : f :a!rs5n K Liv j and respect, and won his nomination cfT I fairly.

The primary nominating election law was tried for the first time last Friday. As a measure conceived in the interests of the people as against the bosses, it did not receive the sup port that it should have received. Of the 3,200 voters in Yamhill county, only about 1,500 cast their ballots. The lack of contesting candidates on the Democratic ticket may account for the indifference displayed by the members of that party ; but such was not the case with the Republican ticket.

The Polk County registration books were opened again Wednesday, and voters will be given until May 15 to get their names on theofllcial register. Citizens who failed to register before the primaries and desire to vote at the June election should enroll their names now, and not impose upon the time and good nature of their friends in getting their blanks filled out on election day. The choice of Dr. James Withy combe as the Republican nominee for governor at the recent primary elec tion In Oregon is distinctly a victory for the farmers. Dr. Withycombe became known to the people through work directly relating to agriculture. He stood out as a candidate represent ing agriculture to a degreo which rarely happens.

The members of the club, twenty-two in number, weut from there to the Little Palace Hotel, where an elaborate banquet was served. After spending a pleasant hour and a half at the table, the club returned to the Kirkland home. Mrs. Dr. O. D. Butler and P. M. Kirkland secured the first prizes for the year and Mrs. P. M. Kirkland and L. Damon the boobies. The Linn county prohibitionists have decided not to put a ticket in the field, and will support the best men for office on the other tickets accord ing to the judgment of the individual voter. By pursuing this course, they will doubtless accomplish results. The Republican state central com mittee did well when it elected G. A. Westgate to the position of State Chairman. He Is a clean, honorable and capable man, free from all cliques and factions, and will perform good service for the party. The primary Is a poor man's law; that is, it will make him poor if he runs for office, remarks the editor of the Junction City Times. The primary election cost the tax payers a neat bunch of money. Was it really worth the price? Hood s Sarsaparilla is unquestiona bly the greatest Hood and liver medldna known. It positively and permanently cures every humor, from Pimples to Scrofula. It is tha Best j DIood Medicine. I Notice.

The play was well staged, the costumes were appropriate, and a very clever production was given, taking into consideration the age and experience of the performers. Of the play itself, little can be said In praise. Like most war dramas, it is clumsily constructed and poorly written. Many of the characters are highly improb able, and some of them are totally impossiDie, notning like tnem ever having been encountered in real life, -Lown in .Dixie' wouia be a poor play even In the hands of the best professional taleut This much should be sajd in justice to the young people, the greater number of whom played their parts in a highly creditable manner, and all of whom are entitled to great praise for their faithful efforts to furnish an enjoyable eve ning's entertainment.
