For all this the only rewaid is the empty honor of holding the posi tions . Notwithstanding this, the fight wits one of the most hotly contested of any ever known in local politics, mid the various candidates exerted themselves to the utmost to secure their election. The salaried positions are marshal and recorder, and for these there was com- KEPT ON SALE ALL THE TIME AT — | paralively little strife, and what there was was clean, honorable, ami respect able. The day wan ushered in with a violent rain storm, but that did not seem to affect matters nt all, for the streets were soon full of men, arguing, bnt'onholing ' each other, and striving with might and ’ main to pull their candidates through to the coveted goal. The merits of the various candidates were dwelt upon and magnified as much as possible; then the magnifying glass was turned end for end rs atie illiams rop and the smallness of the other fellow .shown up, as also the demerits of his | father, his grandfather, his great-grand Hats, Bonnets, Children’s father, his mother, grandmother, and all their relations, his couiitiy, his home, Hats, Childrens Fascinators, his gun, and bis dog—nothing escaped Baby Outfits, Dress Trim with some of the contestants for the mings and Ladies Furnish great and overwhelming honors for which they contended.

It was an awful day in Tillamook, and everybody breathed easier when the miiii filially set in serene splendor over the western hills, and it was proclaimed that the agony was over, and Tillamook had again brought forth a set of officers for the ensuing year. 'Phen some of the men who hurl wrought so wondrotiMly began to feel tired, and others who had said ll'rt I things began to feel ashamed, and wished that they might be able Io unsay them; and others wished they hadn’t been candidates at all, for behold, their own record, and their family genealogy even unto the fourth and fifth generation had been scratched up all to no purpose. They said to their friends. “Behold, we told you so. We knew all along that we would not be elected.” And to their enemies they said, “Behold, ye have mocked us. and when the opportunity offeieth we will lay aside our high moral principles end give you slieol ” Voting close«! promptly at four o’clock P M.,and the count Legau immedi ately.

Anvils were brought into requisition, and plenty of noise was evoked to »atiafy even the most jubilant. And thus ended one of the liulteat campaigns known to the history of Tillamook. The town will have an efficient set of officers for the ensuing year, and the g'HxI work commence«! by their pre«le- ceooore will be kept up, »nd the era of proa parity ami g*xxl government will contin ue. Th« outgoing board ha* done good work and is deserving of th« thank« of all our people. F. R Beale, the defeat ed candidate for inayor, who has been president of the old Council, it a thor ough going business man, and he served the town, in big responsible position, faithfully and well. It is uot known at this time wlm will !>• his successor as president of th* new board, hut there is plenty of good mater ial to choose from. The new officers enter upon their duties January 1st, 1897. Farmers should not neglect to provide plenty of warm shelter and food for their stock during the severe weather that we are now expt riencing, remem bering that it will be money well spent We have received word from some of our creameries to the effect that the milk supply had greatly decreased during the past week owing to this unusual cold snap, and some report the decrease al nearly half the usual supply. While it is not likely that the average dairyman can keep his herd at their usual flow, it is possible for them to gieatly lessen thia decrease by a little extra food and shel ter. A» the good results that come from proper shelter, we quote the fol lowing from the Louisiana Station in feeding and sheltering experiments: The Louisiana Experiment Station fed a lot of cattle with a view of learning whether shelter from wind and rain made any difference in flesh gained. The result was that during one week in rainy weather the exposed animals lost 25.4 pounds in weight and ate 698 pounds of food; the protected animals 26.6 pounds in weight and ate 567 pounds of food.—Pacific Coast Dairyman. l'ortlKiul Market. as given by Allen & Lewis.

Laurence Oaudreau Accidentally Drowned In the Miami. Thia community will gieatly pained to learn on Monday of the Hidden death of Mr». Frank Linville which occurred at her home near thia city Monday even ing at four o’clock. Mrs. Linville had been ailing for some time but no one supposed that she was in any danger and Mr. Linville had been going about hie work as usual. About two o’clock on the day of her death she began to feel seriously ill and a physician was hastily sent for. Mrs. Linville evidently feared that her ill ness might be fatal for after her husband had been dispatched to town for medi cines, she turned to the physician and asked if she were not in great danger of dying. The doctor informed her that she w as dying even then. She expressed no fear of dying and only begged of the doctor that she might be kept alive until the return of her husband. This re* quest the physician w as ahis to comply with and she breathed her last in her husband's arms. Mrs. Linville was born in the slate of Illinois in 18(16 and came with her par ent« from that state to North Yamhill Oregon where they still reside. Mrs Linville's maiden name was Metcalf. She was married to Frank Linville about 13 years ago and with him came to this county in 1889. Three children were born to the couple and they, with her husband and her father’s family remain to mourn her loss. Mis. Linville's parents have been no tified but at the hour of going to press had not yet arrived and the exact dale of the funeral is not yet known. »rown.il In the Miami Monday morning at about eleven o'clock mi accident occurred on the Miami river whereby Laurence Gend reau lost his life. He waa in the employ of Frank Severance, and with four other loggers was working on a log which had got jammed in the river. The log was loosened and Oaudreau jumped upon it to ride it down stream, in its course it passed under an overhanging limb, and Gaudieau was swept off into tlie water. The current al that place is exceedingly swift, and the unfortunate man had lit tle allow for his life. His companions saw him come to the surface but once, but before they could reach him heaank to rise no more. Mr. Severance at once set a crew of men to work to search for the body, but up to the hour of going to press, it has not been found. It is thought that the body is lodged in a drift a short dis tance below where the accident took place, and as soon as the water clears up sufficiently to see tliejbody the drift will he removed and the remains taken out and buried. Mr. (iandieau waa a ‘•H owi" Provoking native of Canada, and about 32 years of agp. He bore an excellent character, Inability to remember names »01)16* and hie death has cant a deep gloom times causes embarrassment».
