The breach between the wings of the Republican party which at first threatened to send it down to defeat has fortunately been healed and, this too, by the broadmlnded views taken by the anti-assembly wing, which regardless of the position tak en by Its candidates before the pri maries, considered it their duty to stand behind every man who re ceived the primary nomination.

The bones were found in a park in the central part of the city. There was no cemetery near.

The chief Interest in the city elec tlon is centered in tbe race for tho mayorallty, which has boiled down to Louis Lachmund, a prominent cltlzea and bulnees man of this city, better known as the "Fighting Alder man" of the second ward, and II. 3.

Glle & Co., both of whom are running upon the Republican ticket and have been In duced to make ibe race for tbe of fice by their friends, and, as both are highly honorable men and prom inent In the business affairs of the city, and popular, the race will dtiubtless be close and interesting. There being no Democratic candi date for the office, the Democrats will write In the name of Frank W. Durbln npon their ticket. The contests for aldcrmanic hon ors la the several wards of the city are based principally npon local con ditions, public improvements, etc, and partisan politics do not enter Into the election to any appreciable extent.

SPECIAL SESSION COUNCIL TABLES THE INITIATIVE PETl TION TO MAKE WATEIt I10ARII ACCOUNTABLE TO THE PEO PLE ELLIOT OFFERS SrnSTI Tl'TE WHICH IS ALSO TAI1LED. On petition of eight aldermen the Salem city council held a special session Friday night to consider the proposed . amendment to the water board feature of the charter, try make the same non-partisan and composed of three members instead of five named by the council. Alderman Btols raised the point that there was no one to vouch for the correctness of the proposed amendment which was- attached to tbe Initiative petitions, and on mo tion the amendment was tabled. Before It was tabled Alderman Elliott proposed an amendment t- allow the water board to be chosen for the present by the city council, but In future to be elected by the people. This was also tabled on the same objections. - Those present were the mayor, Alderman Elliott, Oreenbaum, Hatch, Hill, Low, Manning, MonVt, Johnson, Sauter, Btols. The amend ment cannot now be submitted at the general election, and the citi zens' committee becking It m.ty bring It up at a special election. One of the committee said: "We feel that we have been shut out on technicalities, and that the city council has made tip Its mind to ' name the water board and are un- willing to leave It to the people or the mayor to applont.

(UMITSD FESSS LBA8BD WntO. New York, Nov. 6. In most of the states of the union today the congressional campaign Is drawing to a close. . In a few states the red Are will glow os Monday evenlus end a few husky voiced campaign speakers will address such voters as will listen on the , eve of eleotion. But the real close of the campaign Is today. In every state exempt vMalne and Vermont congressional elections will be held. In 25 states complete new state tickets will be voted for. In some of the states the gubernatorial fighta are considered characteristic and Indicative of the struggle two years hence, when, a new president will be chosen. Not slnoe 1890, when the house of representatives was returned sweeplngly Demooratlo with a Republican president and a Republican senate, has an "off year" election aroused such interest. . Conditions Similar to 1H0O. Politicians of the older school de clare that conditions today aro simi lar to those of 1890, and that the election now has the same Democra tic trend that was noted when- the voters of the United States, after placing Benjamin Harrison In the Dresldentlal chair, gave him a con- DEMOCRAT GETS FINE RECEPTI IJIG CROWD AT THE OPERA IIOISK LAST NIGHT GIVES Oii WALI) WEST A WARM HOME COMI SO WELCOME THAT MAKES HIM FEEL PROUD. Whether elected or defeated, Os wald West will always have a pleas ant memory of his home coming at the close of his campaign for surely the warm greeting given him laHt night at tho Grand Opera House was enough to make a cigar stand Indian warm up and smile. At 3 o'clock every seat In tbe opera houan from pit to "nigger heaven" was Ailed and all available standing room wag taken. After a song "America" by Mrs. Hlngr-s, who was compelled to re spond to an encore, Mr. West fared the people of his home town. He was visibly affected by the warm greeting given him by the big au dience, and expressed his feelings it being "welcomed home." He spoke of his love for Salem whose streets and byways were his childhood's playground and of the gratification It afforded hlnT to know that the campaign stories concerning him be ing crooked could find and evidently bad found no one who believed him crooked or dishonest among those of his home town where his dtftly Hit was known. He explained fully th-) matter of the mileage, which the Oregonlan and other accused him of taking papers have wrongfully, and incidentally in mis connection expressed bis regret that one who had grown np with him, the States- 0 (gross consisting of 236 Democrats and 88 Republicans in the house during the second half of his admin- istratlon.

Voters Deeply Interested. For this renron, and because of the insurgent . Independent move ment which has gathered greater Im petus than ever before in Its history, the coming elections are being watched with Interest ' throughout the country. Leaders In most of the states north of Mason and Dixon's line, and In some of those south of It. where the Independent Insurgent movement is the real Issue, declare that the Interest of the voters them selves Is deeper than is usual In n congressional election, and they aro predicting that an unusually heavy vote will be cast. Ia a few of the states the gube"-v natorlal contest overshadows the congressional elections. One of the states Is New York, where the issue Is admittedly Theodore Roosevelt. In spite of the fact that the direct primary Is playing a part in tho campaign and that the tariff plank of the Republican platform has beeu the cause of some dissension within the anks of the party, tbe question of the Influence and following of th former president la the factor that is taking the center of the stage.
