While there is no doubt of the re- elect! >>1 of Judge Kel’ «» as circuit judge, many electors seem undecided | as to their choice for the second cir­cuit judge. Both Geo. G. Bingham and Judge Galloway are known in every; nook and corner or Marion county, and there is every prospect of a hard tight for the Marion coun- j ty vote, m L.nn county there may be a,i equal'.y close vote.

Ivan G. Martin, Salem attorney, and Republican candidate for the legislature, was here Sunday on his way home from the Republican do­ings “ at Portland the day before. Martin, like all good politicians, nev­er fails to see all the newspaper men "on the way.” He has not only made himself solid with the newspapers, but with the people, by his frank, open manner and genial attitude to­ward life.

Hawley voted for the Adamson 8 hour law thus allying himself with the democratic majority in Congress. But it-, is sa,fe to say that he is not boasting of- that fact in his Oregon speeches, while Hughes is flaying alive that ¡congress for passing the Adamson Act!

The Capital Journal says L. IT' Me | Mahon should be elected district at­torney because he was the originator I anfi, l^ared in the movement to pro­vide a municipal bathing beach at Salem. If that is an example of his qualifications for the place, the Jour nal ought to publish the others— to

make sure of his election!

Napoleon Davis, one of the old line of true-blue democrats of this sec­tion was here from Bunteville last week. He predicts the election of Wilson, and tb% discomfiture of the republican party.

BARLOW

What state or country can boast' of a more beautiful fall than Oregon has this year? Snow in Michigan and some other states.

Mrs. Lena Bond returned to her home in Spokane, Friday, after vis­iting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jes­se here and relatives in Portland for the east three months.

Wood Young of Portland will make his home with his sister, Mrs. Jim Hayes this winter.

Friday night the Barlow people were entertained by Mr. Hedges,

j Mr. Jack, Mr. Johnson and Mr.| Risley of Oregon, candidates for ¡office on the democratic ticket.

! Monday night Mr. Loder and Mr. Scheubel gave interesting and in­structive talks to the voters espec-

I ially so on the Brewers Amendement j which we hppe all intelligent and \ honest voters and people will turn down. It is an insult to decent peo­ple to have such a measure on the ticket.
