JUDO.K BOOTH'S STAND WIU ELKCT HIM. Judge W. A. Booth in making his canvas for election ji't senator ol Crook, Grant, Lake ami Klamath counties upon grounds which should H'al to both de mocrats and republicans alike. Ho lias committed himself as against the division of Crook county at this time, a stand which should commend biro to the individual voters of this county. In addition to that it is scarcely necessary to call attention to Mr. Booth's busi ness qualifications which make him an exceptionally strong man for the office. But at this period with Crook county just in the infancy of its development, with a new popula tion and new industries springing up in every section, it is altogether an inopportune time to broach the subject of county division. And Judge Booth will fight particular ly on those grounds. He has fought there before and will swing his javelins now in the same di rection. And it should be taken into consideration that Mr. Booth's decided stand against this in judicious move is not one of mush room growth. As Judge of this " county, when the question came up in the legislature two years ago, Mr. Booth appeared peronally be fore that body and argued against such an imprudent act. And it was principally through bis efforts Mr. Hearst's presidential boom is turning into something that jlooks rather bum. actiiig as a public servant and who will give his time to the people who are paying him and or whom he is paid to serve. No other nan acting as clerk can fill the ollice and fill it satisfactorily, and tltc people don't want a man who attempts to till it any other way Crook county must and will have a competent man. I "Yellow Jacket" Pointers j A great many people live accord ing to their convictions especial ly those in the Penitentiary. When you have a hair-raising tale to tell you should alwavs spring it on a bald headed man. As oue of the planks for the next Democratic platform we sug git the following: Resolved, That we continue to kick. 4 A hobo philosopher says there is a lack of harinonv about the place where there's a savage dog at the gate and a mat on the front step with "Welcome" on it. Mr. Bryan in a recent address remarked that "society is in a datger." What makes you think so Hill v ? Society has withstood that this county was allowed the bombardment of the Brvanitc remain whole. Now is the samel air-gun for a long time, and we question again brought before hardly think society will come in people and it remains with them whether a man who has stated his . position and one which means far more to thi county in a finan cial way than is now realized shall be sent to Salem as a repre sentative of this district. Mr. Booth is so well known in this counlv it is not necessary to speak further to them of his abili ty to represent this district ably and well. As a business man and judge of Crook county he has pas- Bed criticism and the sagacity and ood judgment with which he has bandied both his own affairs and those of the county are charac teristics which would make them selves felt in the balls of the state legislature. WANTED A COMPETENT MAX Just at this time the county needs such a man as Charles A. Gilchrist to handle the affairs that fall to the lot of the clerk. Along with the increased population, development of new industries, nd the recording of scores of new deeds, claims and other matters there should be a man acting who is competent to handle with dis patch and accuracy the increased business. Crook county is growing, and it will continue to grow. It will stride ahead faster during the next two years than it has in the last ten and an increase in business means that the county must of ne cessity have competent men to dis charge the work. The bulk of this will fall on the shoulders of the clerk. Mr. Gilchrist is the one for the office. The right kind of an en gineer at the right post is the man wanted. Competent and capable. There will be no necessity of ex pertise the books. They will be kept in the right kind of shape and the business of the ollice bandied in a business like maner. That's the kind of a clerk Crook county wants. That's the kind she will need during the next two years and for many years to come. The clerk's office ib outgrowing its old methods. Business during the next two years cannot be handled in the same old fashioned way that it has in times past. There must be a change with the right nitn in the right place. One who will attend strictly to busi ness with which the county has entrusted him; oue who will leave other pastimes alone when he is contact with anything much worse than that. Having been compelled (o lay aside free siUer, anti-expansion, the Panama canal question, and all the other questions upon which they used to bank so securely, it seems that the only available issue for the Democrats in the coming campaign is this: "Ought Booker Washington to have anything to eat?" Out of the Onion Sack. Additional Locals Geo. H. Oshorn was ft business visitor from Culver Monday. Will Edwards was down from Camp creek this week. E. II.
