Manufacturing Candidates.
When it comes to manufacturing can
didates, for any office, from President
down to road supervisor, our esteemed
friend, Hull, of the Milton Eagle, can't
be headed off by any journalist on tbe
Western hemisphere. Yea, even going
outside of the journalistic ranks,- tbe
Pbess will play bim favorite first, last
and all tbe time against Mark Hanna,
when it comes to shoving men into the
official crib. It seems natural, perfectly
so, for him to make candidates for every
office in the land. He does it with the
same grace, and, apparently, with no
more exertion than yoa would nse in
sawing a cord of tamarack wood into
blocks of even length, or in feeding
wheat straw into the ever yawning month
of an "Agitator" threshing machine.
It is the diabolical coolness with which
tbe man ruthlessly and without warning,
irrasps a fellow by tbe collar and in
freezing tones exclaims: "Yoa are a
candidate," that's what "cuts ice" with
us, and which attracts us to tbe man.
He will make a candidate out of yon
whether yoa want him to or not. He
will even go so far as to name tbe par
ticular office yoa are to have; indeed,
this seem to be the only concession be
asks of yoa in the candidate making
business. This appears to be the only
cherished priviiege he retains. Hull is
a natural born dictator, and the dear
people will tumble to the fact, sooner or
later probably later.

was well received by an audience that
filled tbe house to overflowing The

ive, showing patient work on tbe part of
both tescter and pupils. The declama
tions and recitations were patriotic, and
were delivered with an intelligent con
ception, and an individuality in some

ing. The pantomines were well put on,

Recorder J. W. Smith.
Tbe above are the names of the gentle
men who were elected Tuesday in the
city election. The board of aldermen
and the recorder served during tbe past
year, and from the number of voles each
received, it is evident that their past of
ficial records are in accordance with the
sentiments of tbe people of Athena.
What looked to be a very tame elec
tion, turned out to be a livelj one to a
certain degree as far as the office of
mayor was concerned. Up to Monday
evening, Mr. 0. A. Barrett, the present
mayor, was the only candidatefor that
office, and the general aspect was forc
ibly indicative of a dry time on the
morrow. But on the contrary, there
was a "hot time," and W. E. Young,
what tbe boys term a "dark horse," was
elected by three votes over Mr. Barrett.
The irrepressible "Cutty" Carden was
a pick me-up candiJate, as usual, and
polled 18 votes for mayor and several for
councilman W,.AlcBride received 35
votes for treasurer. The following votes
wera polled ;
For Councilman Lake France, 92; J.

HELP FOR CUBA.
'Athens Responds in a Most Substan
tial Manner.
Athena and vicinity contributed 150
sacks of wheat and $26 cash to tbe relief
of tbe starving Cuoans, this week. Tbe
Pendleton Commercial Association took
hold of the matter for Umatilla county's
donation and appointed committees in
the different towns to solicit tbe same.
One car load ia expeoted from tbis
county, but io truth, had Athena been
given a little more time, a oar load could
have been easily secured by ber alone.
D. V. 8. Reid. C. A. Barrett, T. J.
Kirk and F. B. Boyd were placed on the
committee for work in Athena, but to
Mr. Kirk should be given tbe honor for
the fine showing made in securing
Athena's substantial contribution. Two
dsys only was given Mr. Kirk in which
to solicit, owing to the fact that tbe ship
ment bad to be in Pendleton today.
Tbe O. R. & N. Co. gives free trans
portation to these patriotic contributions
to a good cause, and it is confidently ex
pected that Oregon will donate several
trainloads of wheat to starving Cuba.

THE CLARA NEVADA.
Incident of the Vessel's Ill-Fated
Trip
to the North.
Two passengers who went with the
Qlara Nevada from Portland to Skagway
were Mr. and Mrs. Mulholland. two
young people well known in Union
county, and a peculiar incident in con
nection therewith is the fact that tbe
vessel was christened in honor of Mrs.
Mulholland whose rnuiden name was
Clara Nevada, the lady being the daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. R. O. Swackbamer,
of Union. Mr. McGuire, the president
ot the company which put this vessel on
the northern route, is a relative of Mr.
Mulholland and it was through this as
sociation that the name of the vessel
was changed from tbe Hassler to the
Clara Nevada.
Mr. and Mrs. Muholland are now in
Dkagway, having fortunately decided to
remain over another trip ; otherwise
they would probably have shared the
fate of those who were with the stranded
ship. Mr. and Mrs. Swackhamer were
naturally greatly alarmed for the safety
of their daughter and her husband until
the arrival of a letter in Saturday's mail
stating that Mr. and Mrs. Mulholland
bad decided to remain in Alaska. Tbe
letter further stated that thev would
ehortly remove to Juneau where Mr.
Mulholland will engage in the dental
profession. La Grande Chronicle.
