She regained consciousness suBlclently to recognize not only her children but to extend greetings to them, to her aged sister, Mrs. Osborne, Chas. Miller and others who were near. Nourishment was giyen her about noon. It wus soon after this that she manifested sluns of returning con sciousness. The first nourishment received for several days had a telling effect and she at once rallied. There is again stronger hope that blie may recover s'.ifnclp.ntlv to survive until the presi dent reaches her bedside, and perhaps recognize him.

From Santa Glaus I TO THE FAIR STORE, 274 Commercial st Salem, On Dear Sir t As it is now time to start with my reindrers on the long Christmas journey to gather up a fine lot of toys for all the good girls and boys, and for the older people I am anxious to visit you and make arrangements to have my head quarters at THE FAIR STORE, for I have been advised that you have the most complete line of Christmas goods in that bcautfful Willamette Valley, also that your prices arc very low on everything, Yours for Christmas Toys and everything, SANTA CLAUS, P, S, I know that your nice toys will afford the children more pleasure and prevent more hairs from turning gray than many articles which last 365 days, Mr. Buren feels grateful to the board for tho fairest of treatment, and all about tho polls at tho second ward yesterday agreed that It was a very pleasant election. In 1895 and 1890 there was no con test, oyer city elections, except when Jo Baumgartner ran agalnstE. J. SwalTord. The city of Salem Is a Re publican stronghold and to have elected Mr. Buren was a victory for thoCltfrwi's Union only niado pos sible by Republican votes. Mr. Buren will make a firstclass councilman. The Citizen's Union will have a care ful man to guard tho public Interest. Mr. Buren will go In for putting tho city on a sound financial basis. He will be found a bulwark of strength In maintaining tho creditor Ihe city. Mayor Richardson could do nothing wiser than to place Mr. Buren at the head of his finance committee. Thepeoplo will not regret having elected Mr. Buren. The Journal feels It has done Its duty In support lug a solid opposition ticket at tho city election. It was a duty It owed the people In the cause of good gov ernment. Opposition to -Mr. Lee for Treasurer was no reflection on that gentlemen's pergonal character, and he will be gitcn an opportunity to show the people that he stands fur a change In the management of the Sa lem City Finance.. The city council should go furwurd now and give the city a good admin istration All efforts in thlsdlrcction will meet with the heartiest response from the people. The Capital City Is entering ou a brighter period In Its history. May the men elected to of fice fully realize this fact. It Is generally conceded that the election on Monday was tho cleanest ever held In this city. There was less vote buying and less Illegal voting and colonizing than has ever been known In the history of Salem poll tics. ON PRACTICAL FARMING. Course of Lectures at State Agricultural College.
