A Lively Contest All Over the State Wlthyeembe Nominated by a Big Majority. The battle of the ballots was a very tame affair in this city last week Friday, 'and the same condition is reported from every precinct in the county, the lightest vote ever polled being the result Dr. James VVithycomb carries the county and state by a big vote, which shows that the voters have implicit confidence in his ability to defeat Gov. Chamberlain in the June election. Hon. S. B. Huston is defeated for congress by Prof. Hawley, and V. L Tooze, whose nomination was urged by a certain element who had money to burn, and who used it without stint, is badly beaten. Considering the light vote, Mr. Huston received a good vote in his own county, but not nearly so large as it should have been. But the result has left no sore spots and Mr. Huston is at home attending to his extensive law business, wear ing his usual genial smile, and his successful opponent will find him his most ardent supporter. The contest for county judge was ively from the start. Before the primaries it was conceded that G. W. Marsh would certainly get the nomination, but the result shows that he was hardly in the fight at all. But with Reasoner and Good in it was different, their race being almost neck and neck. But at the finish Mr. Goodin passes under the wire by only a scratch. In the senatorial contest Hon. II. M. Cake receives a splendid vote in both this city and county, though Bourne keeps dangerously close to him in the district, and it will take an official count to settle the matter conclusively. Jackson is an easy winner for county treasurer, Weitzel coming next, Olds next and Pulmateernext with 143 votes in the county. Morrill is defeated for surveyor by Walker who receiver 495 votes to Morrill'! 461. Schiller received 232, and to his coming into the con test is attributed Mr. Morrill's de feat. There was no opposition to Con nell for sheriff and he received 1 130 votes; Ireland was also jogging along alone and had 1060 votes to his credit 15. J. Godman had no opposition, but has the distinction of receiving the largest vote cast for any one candidate in the county, "43- Browu is elected coroner over Donelson, and the successful repre setives are Messrs. Bairett, Newell and Purdy. For county commissioner W. J. Butner had no opposition, but his friends rolled up a vote of 1050 for him. On the fourth page will be found a table giving the complete returns by precinct, the only table that will be published in the county. It is official and will be found correct. Following is the successful ticket: For Governor, JAMES WITHYCoMBE. For Congress, W. C. HAWLEY. For U. 8. Senator. For Secretary of State, F. W. BENSON. For SUte Treasurer, tiEO. A. STEEL.

The thought has often occurred to us that the farmer should be a business man as well as the mer chant, and a few days ago our at tention was called to a new publi cation, called the "Agricultural Log Book," published by the Cen tral Publishing Company of this city. The book is designed for farmers and stockmen and others who wish to keep a detailed ac count of their business transactions. The forms and rulings are so Sim ple, and the printed directions on each page are so plain, that it is not necessary for one to understand the first principles of book-keeping to be able to keep a strict account of his affairs. Thia every progres sive farmer should do. As a rule, farmers desire to be progressive and to profit by past experience; they buy improved machinery and in many ways keep abreast of the . m a times, but in the matter ot nooic keeping he seems to be a little care less. In this wonderful age of steam and electricity as motor powers, with all its improved machinery, producing the most satisfactory re sults from the least amount of caDi tal invested and labor employed, farmers and all others who hold on to the old methods, to the careless practices of their fathers and great grandfathers, will not be recog nized as competitors by those who are systematic in their affairs. As the number of acres of land assigned to each farmer is being rapidly diminished in this country by our increasing population, the importance of bookkeeping is more clearly demonstrated. If the art. as applied to farming, stock-raising, etc., as arranged in the above work, were taught in our country public schools, incalculable benefits would be derived therefrom; the sons and daughters of farmers would be bet ter satisfied to remain in the coun try and to devote their time and best energies to developing the natural resources of the soil, to the raising of domestic animals, and to building for themselves beautiful homes, instead of "flocking" to the cities for positions as operatives at barely living wages. The mechanical part of the work is artistic, as well as substantial, while the very reasonable price asked will bring it within reach of all. We hope that every farmer in this country will have an opportun ity to examine the same for himself, and that finding it, as we believe it to be, just what he needs, he will secure it as an important guide in his business.

He sats he Intended statement No.l to be just what he claims it to be, a plank making possible the election of a democrat if the republican voters fail to accept their minority-plurality nominat ed candidate for the United States sen ate.

Mr. I Ren wrote the direct primary taw, and not flv per cent of the people who voted for it ever read it before they found themselves "up agsinst It" In its practical working. They now wish they bsd read it, but that la neither her nor there. They didn't and that Is all there is about it.

RELIEF FOR THE FIRE SUFFERERS PEOPLE GIVE LIBERALLY. Carload of Provisions and Clothing Hast.n.d to th Sen. f Earth qualt and Fir. A mass meeting was called by the mayor last Friday night at the court house, and a fairly good attendance responded. Quite a number of our citizens made short speeches and subscribed liberally in cash, which reached considerably over $200 before the close of the meeting, and the money laid on the table for use of the committee to purchase food. A committee of ladies canvassed the city in dis tricts on Friday and by 9 'o'clock the following morning supplies were coming in from every di rection. They consisted of flour, potatoes, provisions, cured meats, clothing, bedding, etc., and they were taken to the waiting car at the depot by E. W. Moore free of charge. By 2 o'clock the car, filled to the roof, was sealed and that af ternoon left for San Francisco. When misfortunes and suffering comes to any individual or people the warm hearted citizens of this city and vicinity will always be found giving liberally, and this is true ot all sections ot the Pacific Northwest. Help will be needed for weeks, for the 300,000 homeless people of California must depend on the adjoining states. The fol lowing telegram tells of the situa tion: f Having gone over the situation in San Francisco, I am deeply im pressed with the necessity of unin terrupted forwarding of food for the 300,000 homeless people. The sit uation is well organized, and the United States quartermaster's de partment is receiving through its channels and through the various relief associations, all supplies as fast as they arrive, but the fact should be made public in all quar ters that it will require continued effort on the part of everyone to keep the supplies coming. The railroads are, of course, handling all such supplies without charge, and the people must respond to the call for help." K. II. Harriman. On an inside page will be found a splendid account of the greatest earthquake and fire horror that has ever visited the United States. John Schindlerof this city, whose wife and daughter were in San Francisco during the awful scenes, has received several mi ssages and a letter from them. They were stop ping at a hotel and the shock threw them both out of bed. They ran to the street, dressed only in their night clothing. The daughter went back and secured their clothing and succeeded in dragging a heavy trunk into the road. This was afterwards lost. The ladies put their clothing on while standing in the street, and were pushed along by the heat from the burning build ings and the great crowd. Following is a list of the persons who donated to the California fund, the amount in cash and the articles given. All money was used in this city for supplies, as it was wir ed from San Francisco that the peo ple wanted food and clothing, not money: To th honorable mayor and citizens ol Hillsboro, w your committee, beg leave to submit the following report for th aid and benefit of the homeless and distressed people of San Francisco and other towns and cities within the radius of the recent earthquake.

At the coming June election the ques tion will be before us as to whether the women of our state shall have the God given right of a voice in the making of the laws which govern them and saying equally with you how their money shall be expended and how their property hall be protected. Voter, bow shall it be? Ar we to say to our wives and daughters and mothers that they are unfit, or incapable to Intelligently exercise the right to vote, the right for which more blood has been spent upon the field of battle than for any other. Ar we to say to them that they are not the equal of the foreigner who comes to our land Ignorant of our laws and our institutions? He is invited to come and assist us in the election of our officers and the framing of our laws while the intelligent American woman is told that she is not qualified to have a voice in th affairs of state. Such a condition should cauae the manhood of th nation to blush for shame. Chroni cle, Laidlaw, Ore. Equal Suffrage Progress. Forty miles to the westward th peo ple ar to vote in June on an amend ment admitting the women of our bor dering state to the ballot. Western people have always kept ahead of older communities on such subjects, and Ore gon should demonstrate in th forth' coming election that it can tie relied up on to maintain th reputation that has been won by the west for the progres- siveness of all such issues. Oregon men should admit the women of the state to an equality with themselves when the opportunity is presented at the polls two months hence, thus doing justice to the sex and affording such additional encouragement to those who ar strug gling to bring eastern states to the full recognition of the principles Involved.

The old Reliable Corner Opinions of Sumner and Lincoln When tLu 11th amendment was under discussion in the United States Senate a member said, "Suffrage is a political right which the few may giro or with hold at pleasure" "Let that idea," re plied Sumner, "crystallite in the minds of the American people and you hay rung the death kuell ot American liber ties." Abraham Lincoln once said. "No man is good euougb to govern another man without that other man's consent," and suffragists say, "No man is good enough to govern a woman without that woman's consent." The principle of consent un derlies all human and divine govern ment. Iu all the dealings of God with the Israelites, their right of consent was recognized. If they wanted a king, th established system was overthrown to gratify them; nor would Jehovah him self maintain a theocracy over them without their consent. "Choose ye this day whom ye shall serve," was reiter ated constantly in their experience, as it is evermore in the history of each soul. In this divine recognition of individual Integrity in the charter and justification of all human rights. Wisconsin Citizen. Teachers' Institute.

Light frosts occurred Tuesday in all sec tions except near th immediate coast, nd on Wednesday morning the tem perature was dangerously near the frost mark in the south and east sections, but frosts only occurred In a few exjioeed lo calities. During the middle of the week there was considerable cloudiness, but no rain fell. The humidity was low and the temperature became very high on Thursday and Friday, especially during Friday afternoon, when the ninety de gree mark was equalled or slightly ex ceeded at several place in the Willam ette valley. At Portland the maximum temperature Friday afternoon was just ninety degrees, which is the highest te m ers t tire on record for the month of April. The winds were light and mostly from the northwest. i.'X ' 5 Grocery and Sloe Store
