PLEDGED FOR REFORM.
Concluded.
room bo that standing room was at
a premium and cheered to the echo
any good points the speakers
made. Chairman C. B. Leather
man made a brief introductory
speech, and closed with these
words:
"We are the last to meet in con
vention, but not the least when it
comes to polling the votes, we
hope. Now without further talk
we will introduce to you our candi
date for sheriff, Mr. Win. Blakeley
of Eastland."
. Mr. Blakeley is a man of few
words. He put bis platform into
two sentences, as follows: I was
nominated today on the democrat
ic ticket for sheriff. It is an office
I did not seek and one I did not
expect, but if elected I shall en
deavor to fill the office with credit
to myself and my county.
John Vert, nominee for county
clerk, said:
Last night I was asked by a
number.of my friends if I was still
a candidate for county clerk before
the present convention, I told
those gentlemen my feelings in the
matter, that under the circum
stances, owing to the position I
held at present, I could not afford
to give it up for the purpose of go
ing out and scrapping for the dem
ocratic party at this electson. This
afternoon, coming up the street, I
was informed by a friend that the
Hon. J. II. Raley had put me in
nomination for this office, and I
now stnnd before you a candidate.
I think, gentlemen, that clause No.
12 of the platform is a black eye to
every republican in this county.
There never was a man who held
an official position in Umatilla
county who has done his work bet
ter and with more satisfaction to
the people than the present in
cumbent bus done. All that I
have to say to you this evening is
that I will stand by that platform
from today until after the election
in June ana tnereaiter, it necessary.
' "Clause Vo. 12" referred to by
Mr. Vert was the one endorsing
Fred Hendley's record and censur
ing the republicans for failing to
renominate him!
James Howard, nominee for re
corder Mr. Chairman, gentlemen
of the convention, ladies and gen
" tlemen. I am proud to stand be
fore you as the regular nominee of
the democratn convention. I in
tended making something of a
a speech, but Mr. Vert, our former
speaker, stole most of my thunder.
Kll 1 hope to do is to make as good
a recorder as Mr. Hendley has
made, I don't hope to make any
hotter, but I promise to make the
I . t til. Y ,
, nnitr. i run. i nniinvA i win ha ma
successor. In fact I know I will if
I get votes enough, and I hope to
get votes enough.
William Scott of Helix, nominee
for county judge Mr. Chairman,
ladies and gentlemen: lam very
proud to have the distinction of the
nomination today for the office of
county judge. We ore interested
at this time in the affairs of this
county. While I.don't pose myself
this evening as being the best man
in the world or anything of that
kind, I propose to try and have
the affairs of this county, if I am
elected, conducted in accordance
with the law that is laid down for
the affairs of this countv. The
salary of the sheriff and judges has
been laid down and specified by
law, especially that of the Bherilf
being $2500 a year. You muet ex
pect if you elect Mr. Blakeley I'that
he will work for $2500 and no
more.
If the sheriff cannot afford to
run his oilico for $2500, he had
better not take the job. I know
men two years ago who would have
been willing to run that office for
$2500, and your humble servant is
one of them. II would have done
that work for $2500, if ho had to
go on foot.
I). W. McDannald, nominee for
assessor After such a flattering
intrxluttion by the chairman, it is
hardly necessary for me to enter
into my pedigree. As a public
orator, I am a flat failure, but,
single handed and alone, backed
up by an assessment blank, I can
talk the arm off most any of you
Gentlemen, if I am successful
enough to be elected to the office of
assessor, with the experience I have
had in the office in the past and
knowing what are the legitimate
expenses connected with the assess
ment of this county, I assure you
that I will reduce the cost at least
$2000 from what it was last year.
I assure you of another thing, and
I will put that pledge in the way
that you will not be taking my
bare word for it, but I will enter
upon a bond by which I will be
compelled to carry out these terms.
I will hire my deputies as other
assessors have hired them and turn
them over to the county court to
audit their account and not put in
my pocket $1.40 to $2 out of every
one's wages.
I hav thought this subject over
and I thought if I pursued this
course it would of necessity compel
my opponent to adopt the same
course, so, if I lose the f lection, I
will know that I have saved the
tuxpayersof Umatilla county $2000
a year.
Professor Frank J. VanWinkle,
nominee for school superintendent,
and G. I. LaDow, nominee for sur
veyor, Sam Purdy and M. Toner,
nominees for representatives, ad
dressed the audience and . made
pledges to work for the ticket and
for the interests of the people.
" T. G. Hailey spoke of each can
didate and kept the audience in a
roar of laughter with humorous
hits, the best being that no demo
cratic candidate needed to make a
bond to perform his promises, as
any democrat's word was better
than any republican's bond. !
R. M. Powers and others spoke
and the meeting closed with a feel
ing of enthusiasm on the part of
all.
Too Much Alaska.
A party of Portlanders, who
went to Alaska in search of gold
nuggets, have returned disheartened
and broke. They say that Alaska
has not been over-rated, but there
has been such a whole emigration
to that far away land that every
position has at least twenty-five
applicants, and that the country is
crowded with people who have no
means and are unable to go ahead
or return. The wharves and docks
where are tied the vessels bound
for the United States are constant
ly guarded by officers to pievent
people who have no money at
tempting to get back. There will
be a lot of suffering beforo the
Alaska boom is over and it is rank
foolhardiness for any person to go
there without he be provided with
money or a permanent position.
During the winter of 1893, F. M.
Martin, of Lone Beach, West Va.,
contracted a severe cold which left
him with a cough. In speaking of
how he cured it be says: 1 used
several kinds of cough syrup but
found no relief until I bought a
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, which relieved me almost
instantlv. and in a short time
broi .ht about a complete cure."
When troubled with a cough or
cold use this remedy and you will
not find it necessary to try several
kinds before you get relief. It has
been in the market for over twenty
years and constantly grown in
favor and popularity. For sale at
2b and 50 cents per bottle oy Us

The Extravagant Legislature
Many of the country newspapers,
in an effort to defend or apologize
for the extravagance of the last
legislature, say the appropriations
were over $500,000 less than those
of the legislature of 1893. This is
misleading, and practically untrue.
Great appropriations made by the
legislature of 1893, as for the jute
mill and Eastern asylum, were
unexpended, Even apart from
these, the session of 1893 was ex
travagant beyond any precedent;
and any comparison with it, in
stead of establishing a claim to
economy, is an addition to pro
fligacy. The appropriations at the
session of 1895 exceeded by at least
$350,000 what they ought to have
been, Oregonian.
Spring Time
Is when nearly everyone feels the
need of some blood purifying,
strength invigorating and health
producing medicine. The real
merit of Hood's. Sarsaparilla is the
reason of its widespread popularity.
Its unequalled success is its best
recommendation. The whole sys
tem is susceptible to the most good
from a medicine like Hood's Sar
imparilla taken at this time, and
we would lay special stress upon
the time and remedy, for history
has it recorded that delays are
dangerous.
Cuba Recognized.
Washington, April 0. The house
adopted the concurrent Cuban
resolution by a vote of 24 to 27.
The announcement was received
with tumultuous cheers. A vote
was taken on the motion to adopt
the conference report, showing that
the house conferees had agreed to
the senate resolutions. The resolu
tions being concurrent did not need
the approval of the president, but
of course will be tent to him
through the usual channels so he
will receive official notification of
the opinion - of congress on the
Cuban question. Of the 27 aye
votes 18 were republicans and 9
democrats.

SPURIOUS COINS.
Athena Merchants Should Keep a
Sharp Lookout for' Them.
The public should be on their
guard against counterfeit coin
which is now being shoved at dif
ferent points in the Northwest.
There is a gang that has been
operating extensively in counter
feit coin, and a considerable amount
has been circulated very recently
in Spokane. A good description of
which is given by the Spokane
Chronicle, it says:
Ab far as has been ascertained
the denomination of the bogus coin
that is being circulated consists of
dollars and half dollars. 1 be dol
lar is a dangerous counterfeit as it
denes any one but an expect to
detect it from the real com. It has
the ring and all the other ear
marks of a good dollar with the ex
ception that it is not up to the
standard in weight that a eilver
dollar carries. As far as has been
discovered the bogus dollars all
bear the date of 1893.
The half dollars are not as good
a piece of workmanship as the dol
lar and it is far more easy to detect
its spuriousness. But few of the
halves have come to light, and it
is believed the gang are working
the larger coin as a more safe
medium. ' "
The business man in Athena
should closely scrutinize suspicious
silver coins, watch for the shovers
of the counterfeit and cause their
arrest. '
The Boston Store desires to thank
its customers in and about Athena
for . their liberal patronage, and
hopes to continue to be the re
cipient of your favor during our
big Clearance sale.

At length, I began
to take
