Cleveland's majority over Harrison will be about 120,000 or twice what it was fouryears ago. The pro hibition vote will be about 275,000 or 125, 000 more than it was four years ago. 41 585 7,904 30,281 2,797 24,815 1.677 20,748 4-439 5,699 6,600 1.459 1,678 4-177 THEAKHYtiltOWS. Day by day the army of spoils seekers in Oregon who expect to hold office under Harrison as compensation for party servi ces rendered increases. There are at least ten applicants for every office in the power of the administration to fill. Already a very bitter warfare has sprung up between different contestants in various parts of the state, and it may be safely predicted that there is a '-whole lot" of fun ahead. These contentions are still beneath the surface, but by ths 4th of March they will stand out in open day light. Every state in the union has its army of spoils hunters, not made up of the best, but on the contrary, made up largely of the worst,elements of the repub lican party. Every ward striker and shoulder hitter, every man who contribut ed or distributed boodle to secure the "elec tion of Harrison In the interest of good government" must have an office for him self or friend. The boodle dispenser in the "doubtful states" w 10 openly bought votes will make itapppear that he has the strong est claim on Harrison's administration and the more votes bought the more zeal will the applicant display in his search for spoils. Harrison will not have the one tenth part of the spoils feed necessary to satisfy this daily increasing ravenous appe tite for office. There is but little hope that Harrison will have any peace until every democrat in federal office, high or low, shall be made to go. That he will make a clean Sweep hardly admits of doubt The pro fessions of a purpose to enforce civil ser vice rules will prove a mere pretense made to allay the suspicions of the true friends of true civil service reform. The pressure brought to bear on the ne it president will be enormous. It will be made, not by the best and truest republicans, those who would use the party as a means to secure good government, but on the contrary, by the ' 'workers" of the party, by those who are in the party because they hope to be made the beneficiaries of the victories of the party. But the party is divided on this subject as the democrats are. There are many republicans who believe the public welfare is paramount in importance to the mere possession of the offices. The num ber of people who believe In the doctrine of reforming the civil service in such a way that the offices shall not be the contention in a presidential election is rapidly Increas ing. Under Cleveland's administration this sentiment has gained a permanent foothold in the minds of the people. This reform will never go backward. It remains for Mr. Harrison to say whether it shall con tinue to grow or receive a set back under his administration. In another column we print the pros pectus of tl)e New York World.

Pi-re Teas. If you want a first-class article of teas gotothe Willamette Packing Co's. store, their German mixed tea Is just what every one ought to ue, as It Is first class tea and warranted to give satisfaction. Capt. Humphrey of this city does not view the prospect of getting Into the office of U. S. Marshal next March with unmixed satisfaction. There arc several dark clouds though not larger than a man's hand appar ently, hanging over his pathway that wor ries him to say the least. First of all Is the cloud of doubt about the removal of Hon. John Myers, who Is filling the office well. There arc vague hints thrown out that Har rison will be slow, oh, so slow, in removing the hated democrats. Then there are the dark shadows of Col. Melton SVeidler.P B Sinnott and x-SheriM John W. Minto, all of whom want the office, oh so much. It is hinted that one of the gentlemen has strong senatorial backing. Hut Cap. has his eyes open, and we predict if a change is made a 'whole lot" of people all over the state will be asking that Cap. should be appointed. We see no reason why a republican ad-1 ministration should not give him what he has fairly earned. Babies. The finest line of baby carri ages in the Valley just received at Stewart & Sox's. Prices are remarkably cheap con sidering the superior qualitv of the carriages. 30 O 1 3 O 3 0 d c n z O to O CO 89 o g z co - THE '"Confederate Spy," AT THE OPERA HOUSE, Saturday Evening, Dec. 15th.
