It ia tuggeutcd that on duo pressure
being applied by senator and repre-

strongest aocuHHtions I'fjainst the ex

Neither did tha average man know

According to latest information from

Dr. Harry Lrne, of Portland carries
tha state for United States Senator by
about 15.000, .ata returns abow him
leading Ben Selling by 1&0, Jonathan
Bourne is about 10.000 behind Selling.
These figure show return from all
countiea In tno state excepting Lake.
The result for tbia county given in
another column does not change the
above materially.
While 80 or 90 members ot the Legia
latuie are Republicans the Democrats
will have ruore member than tbey

the Senators and Representatives have

reports, it It aiaured of patsing by a
vote of about 1000. A dozen of the

In round numbert, Wilson's vote is

Wilson is the first Democratic can
didate to carry Oregon although, Bryan

in 1896. Oregon will now have two
Democratic Senators ar.d three Repub

The deer season whioh closed Octo

hunter will be allowed to kill five deer.
State Game Warden W. L. Finley ia
Oregon's Code Provides
That All Juries Must
Consist of Men
Regardless of tbe passage of tbe
Woman Suffrage amendment at last
week s election, there will be no wo

and a measure to that effect will be in-. Chronicle. Since the right of franchise

Oregon is the most liberal atate in 088 been mHde by many women and
the Union at present, and although I men, although the suffrage campaign

makes a reduction of the limit neces- tv. coroner's and otherwise, shall con-
sary for the perpetuation of the species, sist of a body of men,
according to Mr. Finley.
California and Washington, states
which have as much deer ground as
Oregon, allow the hunter to get but two
deer in any season, while Montana per
mits three.
This measure may find considerable
opposition from some hunters, hut Mr.
Finley is confident that the majority
will be glad to see a reduction of the
number allowed.
The season past haa been marked by
the absence ot infractions of the laws,
for at least the absence of cases
brought to tbe notice of officials. Other
years many hunters were usually
caught for killing deer after tbe season
had leagally closed.
Thia year only one suoh case wat
brought forward. John Straight, of
Oregon City, being arrested for killing
deer on November 2. He waa caught
in the bills near Cazadero. That he
killed tho deer after the sevson cloaed
was not detinitly ascertained, but he ati

about $1500 on account of tbe abandon
ment of the grade made necessary by
a change in the location of tbe depot
grounds at the Lakeview station. It
ia unnecessary to go into the details of
tbe transaction or to attempt to shift
the responsibility therefor,
to aay that the amount will
be piid the railway company, either
directlv or indirectly.
For the past several weeks all sorts
of rumors hjve been afloat, not tbe
least of which was one that a mixed
train aervice is to be established at
this end of the road. Another was
that trains are to stop over night at
Fairport, while a third waa to the
effect that suit is to be brought fur
the collection of the amount due for
the abandoned grade.
Can Lakeview afford to have either
of tbe rumors materialize for a paltry
S1500?
The Eaxminer stands ready and will
