HMM)oro ludepeiident. C. W. im Editor and Proprietor. Hon. W. N. Parrett this week filed his petition for the nomina tion of joint senator. On Wednesday E. VV. IIaine3 r.f v.r. ;r Crr.vG rikiiasuit in the i in. ail court against Frank 1. Kane, ctal, thawing him with tin misappropriation of funusap r ximatinj; 25,tHM). and mani pulation of books of the plaintiff s bank. Mr. Kane denies the charv.es and says he will fight the ease to a finish. II. II. Greer has filed notice that he is out for the nomina tion of representative and has chosen for his declaration that if elected he will "work for the in terest of the ieople of the coun ty, will opixi.se all extravagant legislation and will support the republican thoice for United States .senator." He desires printed alter his name on the ballot the words: "Will favor an economical administration of public all'airs." If nominated ami elected. Mr. Creer can be relied on as doing as he has promised. He started in as a poor boy and by strict attention to business has established a good t r:nli Mill I considerable property, He has been four times elected as school director and has filled all ollices of trust satisfactorily. Hon. II. M. Cake delivered an able address at the court house last Wednesday evening and for an hour held the attention ot those present closely. He gave in a clean-cut manner his reasons for standintr bv Statement No. 1, and said that he believed a large maioritv of the people are with him. He declared that he be lieves that a United States sena tor should be elected by the peo ple and not by the legislature, as has been the custom. That he is willing to stand by their choice, and if elected he will serve them faithfully and to the best of his ability. We believed in Mr. Cake when he was before the people two years ago, at which time Washington county rolled him up a splendid majority, and we be lieve in him now, and we think the result at the primary election in April in this county will be favorable to his nomination. He is a man fully able to assume the duties of United States senator, and if sent to Washington he promises to do all in his power to advance .the best interests of Oregon nnd the people he will represent. Smith Throws a Fit. Two weeks ago The Independ ent said a good word for a good oflicial and our worthy friend W. I). Smith falls into a fit, gets the ' aid of one of our city attorneys, and together they produce a let ter perfectly devoid of good horse sense, and had it published in the Argus last week, making the communication a personal attack onus. Just why Mr. Smith is grieved, he does not say, or what business it is of his that this pa per should speak in good terms of an ellicient oflicial, is some thing he does not explain. He admits every statement made in the article referred to until he reaches that part where a woman deputy is mentioned, then he gets white in the face, has an aw tul cramp, and rushes into print. Ho savs that Mr. Goodin was the best county clerk Washington county ever knew, nut I ailed to mention that Mr, Goodin married the lady who hat l Ken his assistant in the office lor more than a year. He also refers to J. A. Imbrie, and intimates that he was just a trille better than Mr. Goodin, but here again he fails to mention that 1 'tli Mr. Imbrie's wife ami daughter assisted him in the of fice, and we will venture the as sertion that the work performed by all the ladies mentioned was perfectly satisfactory. At least they have escaped the criticism that has been handed out in large chunks to some others. After consigning the women to outer darkness and forbidding them the privilege of earning an honest living in any county of fice, he goes after the third termers. lie believes no man is entitled to a third term, but has not a word to say about Treasurer Jackson, who is a third termer, and the people seem to want him again. Neither does he mention Assessor Wilcox, w ho has grown gray in the assessor's office. Still we must admit that there is a growing opinion going over the county that he is overdoing the "third-term" act and should make mm for a newer man. Twelve or fourteen years in one olliee ought to satisfy any man, but if the voters of Washington county want him, or any other man, it is their privilege to vote him in. So, Friend Smith, keep right on running, ami if you are wanted the voters will tell youi all about it, and if elected, they will only demand that you con duct their aiiiairs intelligently and as good as your predecessor. And you have our jxrmission to choose whoever you wish as a deputy -a woman if you wish. From Beaverton. Regular CrreepoBdenL Quite a serious conflagration oc curred in our quiet city last Satur day about 10 o'clock a. m.. when the building: erected by A. J. Ham ilton and at present owned by the Fisher estate, caught fire from a defective flue and burned to the ground. Nearly all the contents consisting principally of household 1 4 i-v:r."; were S3VT' ' building has been used recently a an apartment bouse. By a great deal of hard work the store ot C. E. Hedge, which stands but ten feet distant, was saved, but it will require a new roof and new siding.

The work possesses many lasting qualities which guarantee it life for many years. Miss Jeanette Carew, who heads the cast, made a very close study of "Bunco" and for six months before the production of the play, went to New York and lived in the slums, there studying the life, habits, manners, characteristics, and slang of its habitues, and visited all the scenes introduced in the play. Great care was tak en in giving the play the neces sary atmosphere, and the pro duction is a complete one.
