In the democratic congressional campaign book just issued, the address made in the house by Congressman J. A. M. Adair of this city, on the wood pulp bill occupies a conspicuous place and is a splendid argument against the high protective tariff that Jesters and breeds the trusts. —Portland Sun. Congressman Adair looks |ike a sure winner in this campaign. His record in the last congress. hi s sincerity and honesty, his dignity and his utter disregard of petty politics, are adding much to his success at this time.

The regular legislature will convene the first of the coming year, just four months hence, and so far as heard from, not even the emergency plea would have suffered. The cost of the special session will be two thousand dollars a day, an item of expense in itself. While Governor Hughes and Senator Beveridge were opening the campaign at Youngstown Ohio.
