OFFICIAL PAPER OF COLUMBIA COUNTY
J?pri( f7th.
Out ant Vote.
THE PRESENT DUTY
The battle is on today among; Republicans for
the nominations for State and county offices. The
contest has been an earnest one and of course more
have been dissapointed than gratified by the result.
It remains to be seen whether the disappointed
ones will remain loyal to the party under whose
banner they aspired to serve. The opposition to
the Republican party is doubtless honeful that ani
mosities have been created that will enable them to
secure at least a partial succees. They will doubt
less pick out what they consider to be weak points
on me rwpuoiican ucKer ana endeavor to unite
with the disaffected ones. The Mist at this time calls
upon all Republicans to put aside any feeling thev
may have and unite in a vigorous support of the
entire ticket The editor has been a candidate for
nomination for one of the most important offices.
He has placed his case in the hands of the Repub
lican voters ana now, before the result is known,
he pledges his hearty sumjort to the entire tieket.
If things have been said or done that it would have
been better to leave unsaid or undone it is too late
now for regrets. Lach man has had his day in
court and has done his utmost for his own success.
Loyalty to the principles of the direct primary law
demands that the unsuccessful now do their best
for the election of the more fortunate competitors.
uiiuer me oiu convention system mere was
occasionally justification for bolting, but under the
airecc primary law tntre is no excuse for such ;
course.
The President of the United States is a Republi
can, and to carry out ha policies he wants a Re-
puum.in senator reiurneu irom uregon. It is
ridiculous for any Republican to vote for Mr.
Chamberlain simply because he is a good fellow
and has made a good Governor. One might as
wen vote tor a Democrat for the Presidency on
that theory. The non-partisan idea has been car-
nea to its lull limit and those who believe in the
direct primary law (if they are republicans) are in
honor bound to vote for the Republican nominee.
There can be no release from this obligation except
evidence of unfitness that has not heretofore been
produced.
Democrats, 2-18; Socialists, 122; Prohibition ists,
3o; Independent, 167; Republicans, 1392. That's
what the registration shows, or more than twice as
many Republicans as all the other parties com
bined. It does seem as though the offices of this
county should for the most part, be filled by Re

PORTLAND AND FINE (HORSES
In the forthcoming sale of fine breeding' horses
to occur in a few day at the Lewis and Clark Ex
position grounds, we have another fact which calls
attention to the splendid fine-horse reputation
which Portland is building up. It is expected that
at this sale there will be an ofFering of nearly 30uo
horses, and the number of registered animals at
this offering will be greater than ever before. All
of which means that the breeding of fine stock b
making steady advance, and that for Portland there
is much credit in the fact.
We all know as a matter of course that the Ore
gon horse is not a stranger to the breeders and
fanciers of fi e bio d.-d stock throughout the
country. It has long been acknowledged that con
ditions in this state produce horses that cannot be
excelled elsewhere. This state has sent out many
vi me iineai unving animais mat ever stepped on
a highway or were sent over a track. Oregon's
reputation in this respect classes with the best
with the possible exception of Kentucky. And
even Kentucky is not such an exception as it might
appear to a great many people. The business of
breeding and rearing fine horses is of older and
more extensive development in Kenri Iflfv thin in
Oregon; but the proportion of notably good horses
in Kentucky's entire output is no greater, if it is
so great, as in Oregon. There is every encourage
merit here to outstrip every other state in the
Union m the matter of horse-breeding, a fact
we will accomplish one of these days.
And Portland's part in the business, as we say.
is creditable, even, more than creditable. It has
given decided and considerable imoetus to the busi
ness as it assumes state proportions. The stock
exhibits that have been held in this city and the
enterprises of this character that are contemplat
ed for the future that ar beinjf arranged for on

pastor of the Seventh liaptist Church of l.altimore,
Maryland, was w inner ot the grand prize of $llKt.
He was in Portland last summer for a short visit. iiit
Miss Mat eel Howe, of Portland. was awarded the
second prize of Articles w ere in eomietition
from every state in the Union, and almost every

States Senate, made the statement tnat Portland
harbor attorded a depth of between 1 i and 2n fet't
the iH-ople of the great Columbia River Basin and
all of those of the Pacific Northwest were aston
ished. The most thorough compilation of the hi
ping of P.! from this Irt shows numerous ves
sles with draft ranging from2' toUo.'J feet and a
very large number averaging in excess of 21 feet.
The people of the Columbia River Pas in do not
appreciate this misrepresentation constantly .'iven
the river, and have asked Senator Perkins "to cor
rect his erroneous statement in the Senate, but un
to this time he has not done so.
Mayor Heitfeld. of I'wiston. came to Portland
on the 10th at the head of a delegation of Iwiston
Clarkston citizens, including officials of the com
