Mr. VanWinkie is prominently spoken of as a candidate for the office of county clerk on the republican ticket, for which office be came within two votes of getting the nomination two years ago. Willie the Express is not dic tating candidates for any ticket, we believe Mr. VanWinkie would I a good man for lhat office frcm a repub lican standpoint His work around the courthouse for the pKt few years makes him thoroughly faoiilinr with the dutioK and coiupeieul for the office.

The meeting was called to order by T. L. Rice, mayor. After the usual routine work tbo council got down to business, when J, H.' Turpln Intro duced an ordinance bill aud warmly supported it, a bill to repeal all ordi nances or parts of ordinances relating to gaming or gambling of any nature whatever. The ordlnauee bill passed along quietly to the final vote. The motion was niiule and met with a second that the bill do paw. After the motion had been duly put by the chair the fun begun. Recorder J. C. Hutton in a brief speech gave the council to understand that he would not counte nance any act of the kind, neither would he attach his official seal to the document. He also held that it meant impeachment to all who voted for the nefarious thing. After this the vote came. Councilmen voting aye, J. H. Turpln, J. Filling, J. Greeu; nay, J. Harbin. The recorder refusing to at tach hia name to the bill glvlug the mayor the opportunity to veto it, the mayor Immediately tendered bis resig nation, which was duly accepted. The marshal also felt it hia duty to stay with the cause of justice and resigned. J. Harbin, councilman, also left grace fully by tendering his resignation. Recorder Hutton, than whom there is none more upright and Just in this be nighted village, fell in line with the general move and was released from the duty of clerk. The council has been since filled by appointment anil gives geueral satis faction, we suppose, to the general public. The present acting marshal, T. M. Devine, was marshal last year and many will renumber his gallant ac tions on the 4th of July last. He will no doubt do as well this year. The mayor at present is J. H. Tur pln, the councilman who introduced the bill that cauted the general stam pede. A man who will write and introduce a bill of the kind and nature of the one that caused the "ruction" will no doubt bring the morals of the town to a high standing. We learn since that the bill has been remodeled by another. We have also heard it rumored that the council has repealed the fish law, but trust this is only a hoax. Had the bill passed, any gambler could set up his faro layout in the pub lic slreels and run all day or until euch a time as someone went to Sndavill and procured a suite warrant. The bill, was attempted to be passed for the benefit of those who will take the money of a minor, eveu tmall boys, hy a game of chance. Tile council is now complete by hav ing things their own way, and we truly trust the good people of the town are satisfied with the change that will throw open, so t speak, the gates of hell for the youth of the town. Saturday nigh i was only a starter, when dancing w is kept up until the wee small hours. Drunks and yelling make business in a town and drives sway any good citizen who may wish to invest. Sodom was a place of morality com pared to Waterloo at the best. What t has the future in store for us? But j praise tie to Allah, there are a few who will try to suppress the wild and ' woolly yahoo who takes upon himself j lh duty of "doing the town."

Hansard received a very encouraging letter this week from John Wedderburn & Co., of Washington, D. C, solicitors of Amer ican and foreign patents, in regard to their bicycle patent. The letter reads as follows: Messrs R. Hiatt and J. F. Hansard, Lebanon, Or.

BY M'OINTV'S OHOST. T. L. Rice hns received the appoint' ment of postmaster. The school at thh place closed last Saturday, Mothers should accompany their daughters after nightfall or know with whom they are associating. A word to the wise is sufficient. The dance 8aturlay night was con tlnued until Sunday morning when it stopped about three o'clock. This is the way our new council la going to improve the town. A11 arrest was the result of the dance here, but the prisoner was released People cannot expect anything but in' suit at these dances. The town council had a called meet ing last week, to repeal the ordinances governing gambling. The ordinances were repealed on the first ballot. J C. Hutton, the reo irder, then made a speech that would have done credit to Patrick Henry. T. L. Rice, mayor, then tendered his resignation, followed by J. Harbin, councilman, F. A. Glea- son, marshal, and J. C. Hutton, the recorder. The resignations were ac cepted. J. H. Turpln was elected as mayor pro tem, Mr. Coshow recorder, and W. L. Hunsacker councilman. T. M. Devine was appointed marshal. Alas! Waterloo will be the same as ever. Come, everybody, and gamble on the street corners if you want to. Tat Mask Social.
