The secretary of state Wednesday received a protest from A. V. Lafferty, candidate for con gress on the republican ticket, against C. J. Reed, candidate on the same ticket for the same office to have his cut and arguments appear in a pamphlet to be issued by the state printer, as he failed to have his nom inating; petition filed by August 14, as required by law. A protest was also received from T. B.

Chief Clerk Corey had announced that, though the latest time for can didates filing their nominating peti tions and having their cuts and ar guments appear in pamphlets was August 14, that he would extend the time to August 22 unless a protest was made. In view of the two protests he has now reversed himself and any candi date who filed or will file petitions nfter A turns 14 v!1? not bo nllnwed to avail himself of the pamphlet as an advertising medium.

Mother Dear Kills Dors. White Salmon, Wash. Up a tree and without a gun, an angry mother bear at the foot of it, two of his dogs dead and the other on the run, was the predicament of M. J. Van Vorst, a White Salmon lawyer, Sunday after noon. , Van Vorst went out to his 40-acre ranch near Gilmer and took his three valuable bear pups along. While in the timber he encountered a couple of husky cubs. He was letting the pups tussle with the cubs when Mrs. Bruin suddenly lumbered into the game and the scene changed from comedy to tragedy. Two of the dogs were killed and the attorney climbed a sappling. He was kept In his uncomfortable posi tion for some time, until the old moth er gathered her young to her and lumbered silenty back into the woods. DETECTIVES IN GUISE OF WEARY WILLIES MADE QUIET OBSERVATIONS WHILE AROUND UMATILLA Surprise Exmv1cU to Follow Discov ery of Identity of Two Hoboes Iji. bor Scarce at Umatilla Popular Young Couple Wed Other News Note. (Special Correspondence. J Umatilla, Ore., Aug. 17. Two ho boes, who it Is since learned, were none other than two detectives, who were here for two days the early part of the week and there may be some thing doing here In certain circles which may cause surprise to many of ur citizens. The coolness of the past few days makes one believe we are to have a very early fall and a severe winter. Mr. Lawrence Bullock and Miss Ollie Kell, two very popular Umatilla young people were married at the court house In Pendleton on Wednes day morning. Only the Intimate mends of the contracting parties were present. The young couple arrived on the- evening motor and were met oy a large number of their friends with showers of rice, who wished them ail kinds of good luck in their wed ded life. Mr. Bullock is a popular O. R. & x. car checker .and both young people are decidedly popular They will reside in the new home re- cently completed for them on the south side of the city. 'B. F.

He at one time ran boats from here on the Colum bia river and told many good stories of "ye good old times in Umatilla." Mr. Curtis left here on the building of the O. R. & X. through this section and has seen many changes In Uma tilla county since then. The ranchers are now In their bus iest time and the scarcity of tabor makes it very hard on them. They are now in the height of the third al falfa cutting and have every indica tion that a fourth crop will also be maae. Many Inquirers are being made as to when work on the new Umatilla river bridge will begin as it was the general impression that it was to be completed before the end of Septem ber. J. A.

Free water Soil Festal Spirit Holds Sway Throughout Day Many Ad dresses Are Made. Yesterday was a gala day In Free water, the occasion being the annual "Peach Day" which occasion Is cele brated in the east end town with as much spirit as the average Fourth of July. The citizens of the town and valley who had co-operated In their efforts to make the event a most suc cessful one. proved that they were the kind of hosts which most appeal to visitors, for they had provided sufficient peaches and cream to satr Isfy an army of gourmands. ' The year had been very favorable to them and the yields of their trees had been bountiful, and there could be no bet ter evidence of their gratitude to a generous providence than the spirit of hospitality which prevailed among them yesterday. A large crowd from all parts of Umatilla county and from Walla Walla were on hand to partake of the choice fruit and the streets of the town as well as the park were thronged all day with festive people. The Freewater city park resembled a miniature county fair ground when the crowds began to assemble. Most of the business houses had erected booths, some to display their wares and some for the sole purpose of dis pensing hospitality where coffee, doughnuts and peaches were served free to all who came, a mammoth pyramid of fruit occupied the center of the grounds, displaying fruits and vegetables grown in the vicinity.. Peaches, pears, plums, apples, prunes and even strawberries were piled up In tempting masses, testifying to the fertility of the Freewater soil. Of course the merry-go-round, the cane ringer, shooting gallery and other holiday amusements were in evidence in the park, including a moving pic ture show that had been fitted up in an abandoned building across the street, and all were being liberally patronized. Lunch stands galore. with their noisy hawkers, vied with the , program' of speeches and music being carried on not fifty feet away. The exercises of the day were In charge of Editor D. C. Sanderson and the music was furnished by Dunning's band of Walla Walla. Speakers were almost as numerous as peaches and the three programs morning, after noon and evening were listened to with rapt attention by the great crowd seated in the pavilion that had been built especially for the occasion. A baseball game, races of various kinds, and a baby show attracted the crowds and interspersing all were peaches to the satisfaction of every body. The crowd was a good natured one and people from the countryside for miles around were there to enjoy the day and renew acquaintances. For two years previous to this one Freewater has been unable to observe her annual holiday owing to the fact that the peach crop was practically i a fai'ure, but fhis year more than I makes up for the lean years. The i shipping season has just fairly b gun. Tuesday the Shippers' Union of Free- j water shipped sixteen ears of fruit j and .'roni this time on .he shipments! of the union alone will average twen- I ty t ars a Jay from this one town. It j Is said that the union shippers consti tute about five-sixths of the shippers I from Freewater. Hut r reew ater's proud citizens were telling of other reasons for their pros perity. They claim that their com munity is especially adapted to the growing of onions and in proof of the The Citizen. (N. S. Shaler.) Now that the time of. voting is drawing near and we are hearing so much of the rights of citizens, the rights of party, it might be well to consider also what some of its duties are. Among tho books that are like a tonic in their bracing view of Am erican government and politics . is "The Citizen," by Nathaniel South gate Shaler. Mr. Shaler was a southerner by birth and training, he was also a. pupil of the great Agassis, and a pro fessor in Harvard University. From this It can be seen he was a man- of broad experience In that he had lived in two very different parts of the same country. He always took a deej interest in local politics. When such a man speaks he has something to say. Some of the chap ter headings will give an idea of the scope of the book. They are "What Liberty is." "On the snare of the Average Man in the State," "Citizen ship and Party Allegiance," "Immigra tion," "Universal Suffrage and the Negro Question." Trie dominant idea, in all these chapters is "that a man shall not live unto himself alone," but that the practice of disinterested slfc sacrifice is needed in politics as well as in business or in society at large. year rented eight acres of his farm to a party upon which to grow onions for a cash rental of one thousand dol lars, or $125 cash rent per acre per annum. Years of Suffering Catarrh and Blood Disease Doctors Failed to Cure. Miss Mabel F. Dawklns. 1214 Lafay ette St., Fort Wayne, Ind., writes: "For three years I was troubled with catarrh and blood disease. I tried sev eral doctors and a dozen different rem edies, but none of them did me any good. A friend told me of Hood's Sar saparllla. I took two bottles of this medicine and was as well and strong as ever. I feel like a different person and recommend Hood's to any one suf fering from catarrh."
