TURN HEARST DOWN BEFUSE TO INSTRUCT DELEGA TION TO CONVENTION. Reaffirms Jeffersonian Principles asd Denounces the Repub lican Party. Portland, April 20. The state demo cratic convention which met here yes terday to nominate delegates to the national convention, refused by a large majority to send an instructed delega tion. The platform adopted contains the usual reaffirmation of the principles of Jeffersonian democracy. The republi can party, its principles and present ad ministration are denounced, as likewise are the trusts. The platform indorses the Isthmian canal, but believes it un safe to intruBt the construction to the republican party. The platform commends the adminis tration of Governor Chamberlain, the the eight hour labor law, recommends regulation of extortionate freight rates to the Pacific Coast, and the enforce-, ment of the anti-trust law, Col. J. H. Raley, of Pendleton, was , unanimously nominated for district at torney in that district, there being no opposition. State Ticket and Delegate. The following state ticket was nomi nated: Supreme judge, Thomas O'Day, Multnomah; for congress, second dis trict, J. E. Simmons; congressman from tirst district, Robt. M. Veatch? of Lane; dairy and food commissioner; S. M. Douglas; presidential electors, John A. JefTerey, of Marion; T. II. Crawford,, of Union; W. B. Diller, of Columbia, and J. II. Smith, of Clatsop. The following delegates were elected to the national convention: Governor George E. Chamberlain, Portland; W. F. Butcher, Baker City, J. B. Matlock, Eugene; JE V. Holman, Portland; 0. E. Ited field, Ileppner; James Gleason, Portland; T. R. Sheridan, Roseburg, and Samuel M. Garland, Linn. Much to the surprise of the Umatilla county delegation, F. B. Holbrook of Irrigon, was nominated for joint rep resentative between Morrow and Uma tilla counties, instead of R. N. Stan field, who had been recommended by the Umatilla county convention. Powerful influence was brought to bear on the convention by the admirers of William Randolph Hearst to have the delegation instructed t" support him in the national convention, but when a motion to that effect was presented it was lost by u vote of 151 to 115. the Hearst men made no further effort to influence the convention, and the delegation chosen is considered strongly anti-IIeaiBt. However, just before adjournment a resolution wns pimped commending Mr. Hearat'B action causing the institution of tho suit against tho coalmine owners of Pennsylvania, which was decided re cently in favor of the people of the United Stales supreme court. Absence of Scab. Stock Inspector J. E. Bean baa been making trips through Umatilla and VValla Walla counties and so far has found but little scab among the sheep. As a matter of fact sheep this year are in excellent condition in evory respect. The clips are turning out good, and prices appear to be very fair. The sheep situation, as fur as Umatilla county is concerned, is indeed most satisfactory. To Buy Yankee Horses. Seattle, Wash., April 20.--A. M.
