As soon as v, u rated the matter of procuring; attorney for his g,m win b(J d Hon sind he has manv irien and admirers in ootn parties " will h:ifk nn their belief in his efficiency by voting for him. v Here is a part of a conversa tion overheard on the street the other day between one ot our ocal ministers and a Hillsboro business man: "I will tell you frankly that up to within a year I have been opposed to this pro hibition movement that is sweep ing the country and have invari ablv voted against it. I take s drink when I want it, and I can't figure out that it has ever done me any good: but I can plainly see where it is doing great harm to our boys, and for that reason shall vote dry." isut to tell you the truth I am doubtful about winning out. because you minis ters and church people don't vote as you preacn. vvnac are you going to do this time? And they separated, the minister's face wearing a very thoughtful expression. As will be seen in another col umn, J.

A petition will be circulated at once asking for a change of route through Hillsboro of the Oregon Electric Company, which it is be lieved will be much more satis factory to many than the one a! ready projiosed. The petition reads as ionows: It is the sentiment of the un dersigned property owners that the granting of a franchise on Washington street is detriments to the business interests now e tablished on Main street, but in as-much as the Oregon Electric Company preferred said street we are quite willing to concede to their wishes. Provided, how ever, that said company construct a loop track as follows: rrom the corner or Washington and First streets, thence north Main street thence east on Main street to Third street, thence south 'on Tifcd to Washington street. This loop will prove equitable to ' the business and property interests as they now exist and will create no los3 or hardship on any one. Hence we sincerely hope that this change ot routing will be made.
