This was tho homo precinct of Good

endorsement.
Hero tho hardest kind of a fight

Mayor Corby showed splendid ability

But Democrats, Socialists, Prohi

made up for Republican disaffection.
Tho result Is that tho community
that has had the most experience with
Judge Scott's methods of building
good roads has sustained him.
Tho peoplo of Liberty have lntelll-

THE RISE OF RICHARD LAFFIN.
Less than twenty-five years ago,
says a wilter in Everybody's Mpgazlno
Dick Laflln was "clerking" In a furni
ture store In' Somervllle, Mass., at
$10 a week. What was his ambition?
To be a horse-car conductor at two
dollars a day, Dick argued that a con
ductor could llso. At nlneteoh his
dream came "true. When ho wasn't
on his car, ho was studying tho rond
and all Its routes and branches, to
tho amusement of his fellows. But
when tho company wanted a starter
at a certain point, he got the Job. In
a year it wanted a foi eman and he got
the Job. Young, but always studying
his business and being promoted ovor
older men's headst Inspector, divis
ion superintendent, superintendent,
manager of a great consolidated- sys
tem, on he went Big salary, by" 'the
by, but Dick was always Btudylng. So
now ho Is genoral manager of tho
Manila Electric Railway, Light and
Power company. Great things to do
there, and Dick Mr. Richard T. Laflln
gets $40,000 n year for knowing how
to do them. Not many of us can got
$40,000 a year, but Isn't thero some
thing a Httlo encouraging and Instruc
tive In tho rise of Dick Laflln, who
was always studying, always Improv

Advice to Collectors.
There Is a growing difficulty In se
curing fine copies of the early Issues
of United 'Statbs sltamps, saj St.
Nicholas. The makers of the3e Issues
wore not required by tho government
to bo careful In relation to tho per
forating of them. Tho paper was of a
brittle quality very easily broken
or Injured by careless handling. The
postmasters who canceled theso
stamps cared for nothing except to
thoroughly obliterate them, so that
they used unnecessary quantities of
ink for this purpose. All the3o things
combined to make It difficult to find
used copies of tho early Issues of our
country In fine condition. 'There aro
fow collectors, and thereforo not many
of those stamps were saved In unused
condition The consequence of this
state of things Is and will bo an In
creasing difficulty in securing these
stamps In such condition as Is accept
able to collectors who are at all par
ticular as to the looks of their al
bums. These many collectors tako to
fill the spaces In their albums until
they can secure stamps of finer qual
ity. This seems, on the whole, to be
a mistake, for the possession of a
specimen even though It be a poor ope
cause a collector to neglect to secure
another of the samo stamp.
Tho Woodburn Republicans mado aj
fine showing for Judgo Scott. Mayor
Corby Is a popular man down thero,
and cnrrled his precinct.
John Lewis still wears tho belt as
the Democratic sky-scraper, but, alas,
Bob Donaldson will bo constable for
the next two years.
. f
County Chairman Murphy has been
overwhelmed by tho' size of tho ma
jority, and the hoartlness of the con
gratulations. His work and that of
other splendid Republican leaders
will bo summarized in our next.
Charley Corby Is not as athlotlc
looking as his brother, Grant, but he
seems to bo a better sprinter. Can It
bo that ho stole Grant's thunder?
According to tho Oregonlan letters
from Eastern Oregon, Harvey Scott
means to irrigate the politicians over
thero into voting for him for United
States senator. But a Salem man will
be after their votes too.
The Oregonlan reports that a stato
official In Eastern Oregon let a two-bit
piece get away from him without tak
ing a sworn voucher, and there was
quite a commotion for' a time until it
was located.
A Good Bear Story.
Several weeks ago Fred Dawson
sold a couple of small boars to Rob
ert Davis who took them back to
Beatrice, Nebraska with him. The
bears wore captured over In Linn
county and shipped hero to Mr. Daw
son. A Linn county man has Just re
ceived a Nebraska paper which tolls
of their arrival thero, tho interest in
them, and gives an account of Mr,
rvivin'a tiirllllnc canturo of them
about thirty five mlleg west of Al
bany. In order to secure them he
had a hand to hand conflict with tho
mother bear, finally succeeding In
killing her with an ax. Albany Demo-
