The Election.
Last Monday was a quiet elec
tion day iu Lebanon. There was
a steady down-pour of rain from early
morning until dark and many did not
go near the polls. The Issue was prohi
bition and anti-prohibition. The fight
was made for marshal, mayor and one
councilman. The strongest light was
fur the office of marshal, although the
mayors ran pretty close togther Fol
lowing we give the vole of each can
didate.

Mr,' Robert II. Montague! the
I mayor elect, lsa young man, but re-
ocntly attaining his majority. He Is the
youngest son of C. B. Montague,
and Is the manager for Read, Peacock
A Co., at this place. Quite unexpect
edly to himself and friends, his name
was . placed on one ticket, and the
young men of the city gathered to his
support. Hla father's many frlenda
also paitl the young candidate the
compliment of a vote. Ho is fully
qualified by education and natural
ability to fill the posltltu with credit,
and a few months of experience, will
rdd oil that is necessary to the making
of a flrslclasa officer.
George Taylor, the marshal elect, is
well and favorably known to every
one, Is. a consistent member of the
church and an boneat law-abiding
citizen. He Is a hard working man.
The marshal's office will give him n
much needed rest from hard manual
labor. No one doubts that Georgo
will make a moat worthy officer.
T he recorder and treasurer are old
lueunibents of their respective offices
and tli fact of their re-election at this
time without opposition is all that
needs lie saitl as to their qualifications.
The council is composed of good
honest citizens who already have the
respect and confidence of the commun
ity and -ill not do anything to forfeit
the same.
Wedding Bells.
And said I that my limbs were old,
And saitl 1 UiAt mv blow) was cold.
And that my kinil.y fire wus (led,
And my poor, wither'd heart was dead,
And that i might not sing of love?
How could I to the dearest theme
That ever warni'd a minstrel's dream,
So foul, so false a recreant prove!
How could I name love's very name,
Nor wake my heart to notes ot llaiuel
In peace, Love tunes the shepherd's reed ;
1 n war, he mounts the warrior's steed ;
Inlialls, id gay attire is seen;
In hamlets, dances on the green.
Ixive rules tlie court, the camp, the grove,
And men below, ami saints above:
For love is heaven and heaven is love.
Married, on Wednesday, Dec. 4, 1895,
at tlie residence of the bride's parents,
by Rev. J. H. Cornwall, pastor of the
First Presbyterian church, Mr. Fred
U. Hickok to Miss Ola D. Smith.
The marriage ceremony was solem
nized in tbe presence of the immediate
families of tbe bride and groom, and a
few Intimate friends of the young
couple,, among whom were Rev. and
Mrs. Cornwall, Mrs. Goan, Mrs. S. P.
Bach and R. B. Montague, mayor-eleet
o Lebanon.
The writer of these lines has known
the wiusome and talented young bride
from jtajir.. infancy. Her' modesty and
Industry, whether at school or in the
ajctlve duties of life as assistant to hor
lirotlusr, Chas. A. Smith, Esq., the
gemaf'postiuaster of Lebanon, coupled
with the kindness and consideration
she Invariably showed to the old-time
friends of her childhood, have endeared
her to those of us who are now approach
ing the sere and yellow leaf of old age.
No higher possible praise could be
; praise enough for him. Mr. Hickok is
at present the popular agent of the S.
P. It. It. iu this city. Ho has been
among us over a year and stauds today
without one dot on his character. His
reputation is above reproach; his manly
bearing, urbanity to all with whom
his company has dealings at this place
and his uniform, gentlemanly conduct
during his residence among us, has
stamped him as one among the fore
most of our best young liieu.
The wedding presents were many
and valuable, many of them coming
from a distance.
Immediately nftor the ceremony tlie
young couple were driven lo Albany,
there to lake the train for Portland,
Tacuuia and Spokane. The bridal trip

young folks w ill settle down to actuul

Later in tbe day the exchequer of the

Of course the Woolen Mills eau tot

Some folks wonder why they have
such bad luck when it la no oauae for
speculation to the outsider. When
people disobey long established and
harmless usages in a country in which
they are aliens, they sometime meet
with reverses in tortune, perhaps to
teach them that there are other duties
they owe a government, beside aocum
uhting riches and paying taxea.
Tlie Express failed to reach our
office this week. This occurs about
once each month. There must be
something very crooked in the offices
of the United Btatea In this corner of
Oregon. When a paper edited six

the good Lord only knows where else,
before reaching It readerr here.
When this occurs once mora we will
call for au explanation and we will
make such a bowl that tbe true cause
will be unearthed. Take heod ye ser
vants of Uncle Sam.
Truly It l a sad oast wherein Mr.
Knlfoug met death at the mill, but
th. ,-.o,.ri l.,uMt w. flrinlv believe
was a mere farce. The Jury hold that
It must have beeu murder. The doc-
tors' testimony should have been ex-
might have been found vldenoa of a
fall aa well as a broken skull, We un-
del stand the doctors claim that a man
could not fall In such a manner aa to
crack his skull In such a maimer at
the deceased without having other
bruises on bis body. How do they
kuow? A hundred men might fall out
of the second story of the mill and no
two would be Injured in the same
manner, this la a (get, now who shall
say that this was not one of the ways,
out of a huudred would be Injured?
We hold that th verdict rendered It
not Just to th employee of th mill

were around th mill that sight, and
there waa quit a number. In on,
