OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER.
Thi arrival of the season for politi
cal discussion and intensified activity
among national, slate and local politi'
ciana cannot be said to be hailed with
delight, but the conditions are here and
the duty confronts the people of decid
ing the issues by ballot. Before that
time arriyes, however, there is a vast
amount of preliminary work to be done,
and it requires constant care and atteiv
(ion by some one, that no important
duty can be left undone. This work,
ma a matter of course, is expected to be
attentively looked after by members of
the county organizations, and to say the
least, the position is an unenviable one.
The importance of a double campaign
next year involves new duties which
cannot be shirked. ' The campaigns of
J 900 are to be strictly political. ith
the exception of the supreme judge and
perhaps two or three less important
positions to be filled in the state, the
issues next June will be altogether po
liticsL The congressional election in
that month will call forth direct en'
dorsement or direct repudiation of the
national administration by the people of
Oregon. The relapse from the political
fever, which will reach its highest tem
perature early in Jane, will set in dur
ing the latter days of the summer, and
interest will continue to develop until
the ballots are counted early in the
month of November, choosing between
one political party or another for presi
dential electors. Hence, in reality, the
campaign in Oregon will open with the
first of the year and continue almost
uninterruptedly throughout the entire
year. As a matter of fact, the results
re not dfficult to fortell. The people of
Oregon -will never allow themselves
gain to be socomp'etely humbugged by
agitators and cranks ai they were in
1896. Time has proven to the complete
nd absolute satisfaction of all good peo
ple that the precepts of the demo-pop
party as they advocated in this state and
nation four and two years ago would be
injurious policies if adopted. The in
formation comes through observation
and practical object lessons. The re
turn of prosperity in this state came at
once upon the replacing the republican
party to power. This is not idle prattle
but an acknowledged fact by even those
persona who were loudest in their de
nunciation of the principles and pur
poses as advocated by republicans.
National issues are made up entirely,
of course, from the questions interest
ing and affecting the whole nation, and
no stronger argument can be produced
in favor of prevailing conditions than
the conditions themselves. As a matter
of fact, the campaign throughout the
approaching year will be but a matter of
form because theconditions which obtain
will receive a hearty endorsement at the
hands of the American people. The
doom of demagogism, fanaticism, popu
lism, free silveriBm, contraction, repu
diation and demoralization is sealed
forever.
.. Laugh and the world laughs with
yon ; weep and you weep, alone. There
is a man with a grievance. People want
to be amused. They neither want to
see your boil nor hear your groans. The
only thing a man wants to hear is some
thing to tickle him or to shock him.
People have their own troubles. Sym
pathy is generally lavished on its owner.
When a man borrows trouble, he does
not borrow it from him who hag it to
spare. Ninety per cent of your grievan
ces are imaginary ; one hundred per cent
of the sympathy you receive is also im
aginary. If you want to be appreciated
tell your audience either a joke, or some
thing involving your neighbor's charac
ter. Then there is the man whose
questions have no ending; whose an
swers have no beginning. He is a
social town pump; he pumps you till
you are dry then closes up like a clam.
The way to choke this gentleman off is
answer his first question by asking an
other. He always begins with a sick
amile and an indifferent tone. Then
there is the man who says: "I don't
want you to get mad at what I'm going
to say." Always reply, "No; if you
promise not to get mad at what I'm
going to say." The fact is, "silence is
golden." The man who tells all he
knows only tells bow little he knows.
It ia as hard to talk much without talk
ing of yourself, as it is to talk of your
self without lying.
ArrEB naming Populist Allen for ap

YOTERS MUST BE REGISTERED
Complete Resume of the Reg
istration Law.
Strict Compliance with Uio Provis
ions of the Act will !
ltcqnired.
Every elector In the state must regis
ter between the first Monday In January,
1900, and 6 oclock P. M. May 15 follow
ing. Such was the law passed by the last
legislature. A voter may register with
a notary public, justice of the peace,
or county clerk. Electors are not sub
ject to expense in the matter. A book
containing the registration of all voters
in the county will lie prepared and from
this general book smaller one will lie
made giving the Hat of electors iu each
voting precinct.
Electors will be numliered, consecu
tively, in each precinct, as they are
entered in the general county register.
The clerk shall require of tiie elector
such information as his registration
number, day of registering, full name ol
elector; business or occupation ; age of
the elector in years ; country of nativity ;
if natnralizedj the time, place and court
of naturalization or declaration as evi
denced by the legal proof exhibited by
the elector.
The actual and precise place of resi
dence of the elector at the time of his
registering will be asked, and the pre
cinct, and, if in the country, the town
ship, section and range; in cities and
towns having streets, bv specifying the
name of town or city, the street or oilier
I - r ..... i n! .:.u
location oi uie uvtciiiii-pini-v, ini nn
number of the dwelling, if it ha a
number, and if it has not, then such a
description of the place that it can be
readily ascertained and identified. If
the elector be not the head of the house
it must be stated, and upon what floor
thereof and what room the elector oc
cuoies in the house.
It must also be stated whether tSe
voter is able to write his name or mark
his ballot. If the elector's iuability is
apparent in consequence of some physi
cal infirmity, such as blindness or loss
of a limb, incapacitating the appllicant
from writing, this fact must be set down
in the register. Should the disability
be illiteracy of the voter, the clerk shall,
in addition to stating the fact, enter as
full a description of the physical pe
culiarities of the elector as possible,
giving height, approximate weight, com
plexion, color of eyes and any visible
marks or scars and their location.
The law is very explicit and enters
into smallest details; until after a per
son has gone through the process of
registering he will think he is under
suspicion for murder.
Should an elector change his resi
dence after registering, he may, before
the books are closed, cause his former
resignation to be cancelled, by a request
in writing to the clerk where he regis
tered, on a specially prepared blank.
Section 12 of the law says: "No person
shall register who is not a qualified
elector in the predinct iu which he reg
isters, and who is not a resident thereof,
or register in a name rather than his
true name, and no elector shall register
a second time in the same precinct or
register in any other precinct until his
first registration has been cancelled."
Upon the day of election the judges,
as soon as an elector applying to vote
has given bis name and residence, ehall
ask the elector if be is registered, and
most also examine the register. Even
though a person may be registered his
vote may be challenged before his ballet
is actually in the box. If not registered
the elector is to be conridered chal
lenged. In case of a challenge the voter
may subscribe an oath on a blank pro
vided for that purpose, and this also
must be sworn to by not more than half
a dozen freeholders. In trying such cases
the election judges have power to issue
subpoenas to require the attendance of
witnesses before them. The last section
of the law gives the following warning:
"Any county clerk or clerk of any
county court, or any deputy of either of
such officers, or any judge or clerk of
election, or any justice of the peace or
notary public, who shall willfully disre
gard any of the provisions of this act,
or who shall willfully fail to perform any
provisions of this act, or any person who
shall willfully or fraudulently register
more than once, or register under any but
his true name, or attempt to vote by
personating another who is registered,
contrary to the provisions of this act.
or knowingly register in any precinct
where he is not a resident at the time
of registration, upon conviction shall be
punished by imprisonment in the peni
tentiary not lees tnan one year, nor
more than three years, or by a fine not
less than $100 nor more than 2000, or
both such fine and imprisonment. Any
person who shall falsely swear to any
affidavit required by this act shall be
deemed guilty of perjury, and upon
conviction thereof shall be punished ac
cordingly." For those who for any reason cannot
go to the county clerk for registration,
the law enables them to settle the mat
ter with a notary public or justice of the
peace, special blanks being provided for
the purpose. These officials do not col
lect any fee from the elector, but receive
10 cents for every blank filed with the
county clerk.

It is said that American soldiers in
the Philippines were vastly surprised to
learn that one of their American silver
dollars would purchase two of the Mex
ican dollars in common circulation
there, notwithstanding the fa:t that the
Mexican coin contained more silver than
the American. The explanation of the
paradox lies in the tact ttiat the treas
ury of the United States stands ready to
exchange an American silver dollar for
a gold dollar, or vice versa. It ia the
maintenance of the gold standard that
makes every American dollar, whether
metal or paper, as good aa gold the
world over.
How is this for Oregon? Frank H.
Mason, consul general at Berlin writes
to the state department: "In respect
to dried apricots, peaches and pears,
it may be said that these fruits from the
Pacific coait of the United Suites domi
nate and control the markets of conti
nental Europe. Nothing comparable to
them in point of size, flavor, tenderness
of pulp, and general excellence had ever
been seen in fcurope until tney were im
ported from the United States. They
have established wholly new standards
of excellence, and created a new mar
ket, which, if the trade is properly
managed, they can hold in future against
all probable competition.
A suit, probably the first of its kind
in Washington, has been filed in Thurs

brought under the provisions ot ttie
compulsory education law, and the
superintendent desires an order of the
superior court to compel John McDon
ald and wife, of Tenino, to send their
three girls to school, in conformity there
with. The law, up to the meeting of
the last legislature, was considered a
dead letter, but amendments were made
then which, it is thought, will make it
effective. The penalty for its violation
is that a child may be removed to guard
ianship other than the parents', or a
fine of not less than $10 or more than $'5
may be levied. McDonald and wife
have been cited to appear January 2nd
and show cause why they have not con
formed to the law.
