The Grand Victory to lie Celebrated In Salem. A (J rand Treat. Last night the two literary socie ties of tho Willamette university met nt their hulls in Joint session, and rendered uu entertaining pro gram which had been previously prepnred. The Indies and gentle men of tho university conduct sepa rate societies for the development of the literary faculties and at tho close of a school term tiro wont to have a co-operutlvo meeting. Such being the case, it Is our regret that the regular school terms do not come to a close more frequently any every few weeks. The evening was en Joyubly spent, and tho attendance was fur beyond the capacity of the iiii-uiy appointed nans ot tlio socie ties. It might not be Impcrtine.it to remark that in the Sliiikesncarp JSticons controversy our friend Nel son took the side of Uacon. Narrow Gauge Extension.

A united clliirt will assure tho extension that would be a great bonellt to tho runners of tho Willamette valley. To-night the goddess !t victory will reign supreme and assist in the celebration of the result of the glorious national contest. Harrison and Morton have won by a good majority, having but one less elec toral votes than did Cleveland In 1834, and tho observance will be unanimous. Musi 7, cannon, fire crackers, horns, sboutsund laughter will fill the air and all will go as merry as the marriage bell. This is the close of one of thegreatcst strug gles for many years and the win ning party will make the welkin ring in honor of the occasion.

Large numbers of persons from the country are expected to be present and join in the enthusiastic parade.
