Rainier A ROARING FARCE That the Oregoniarr and its (.orrespondents are lying about the attendance at the Republican Assembly primaries there is no Joubt whatever, and we suppose they are deceiving; a great many, so far as Columbia County is concerned the attendance at the Assembly primaries was pitifully mall. At the county seat there were just ten participating in he election of three delegates. At Houlton no one turned out, at Warren there were three, at -eappoose there were five. And !."s is the way it was throughout '"0 entire county. Twenty-five '-iutes had less than seventy v 1 votes in a county that polled .Mi votes for President Taft the . ; unjest Republican County in Mvircn in proportion to its pop- ''tioi. And this is what they : a ve the gall to call representative bc ably. A greater farce was "vci presented before an in .H'ynt people. It represented thing except the re-actionists ho aiisire to return to the old iinv:!? rigging, wire-pulling n .-ntion system which crsated Iiar:berlain a3 a political factor A made his election to the 'nited States Senate possible, i.e Republican County Com ittee did not dare to call a ounty convention, but its leaders ..illed primaries for the election :' J legates to the State As , -lr.My, and Columbia County ill have 25 vote in that body ven if only one delegate attends, iow do the farmers and working :en like it, and what will be hu'r answer at the primaries in unf and at the general election i govern oer: ine Mist nas no oubt of the result. No candidate r the Legislature can be elected a Columbia County who docs not '.ascribe to Statement No 1. '.'li?x is the great and overshadow-.-'i..ue. The Oregonian, from ts stand-point, is perfectly right :.i de claring that it will knife any en who takes the pledge to a '! .? by the people's choice for '.':.itH States Senator. Its chal et; should and will be accepted. Tk.'i isue is as important a3 any c ser.ted since the civil war, and There will be four Chatauqua assemblies in Oregon during the present month at Gladstone Park, near Oregon City, as for many years past; at Ashland also as for many years and one each at La Grande and Albany for the first time this year. These meetings will be in progress at one place or another until July 24, at which date the Willamette Valley Association will close the year's full programme of lectures music, study games and idea! outing privileges under the Chau tauquan banner. As an educational deuce and opportunity for study the Chau tauqua plan appeals favorably to students; as an outing it ap peals to parents of young chil dren, while its social features- safe and sane meet the appro bation of thoughtful, observant people who realize the difficulty of providing safe and pleasant social intercorse between young people outside of the restraining influences of home. For these and other reasons that present themselves it may be assumed that the four Oregon Chautau quas scheduled for the present month will be well attended. The spirit of the organization is right Its entertainments are whole some and enjoyable, its manage ment is above reproach, and the expense of attending it with the entire family is relatively small to those in its immediate vicinity SAYS THE GOVERNOR NORTH CAROLINA OF 'I heard the prohibitory law was being broken in one of our counties. I ordered the mayor of the town to attend to the matter or he would have to break rock on the public road, and a better man would be made mayor. Very soon two offenders were brought before the Judge, who put them to work on the roads for two years. One was worth $15,000. He asked, Would you take $5,000 fine and let me off?' The Judge said. 'I will not.' The Supreme Court confirmed the order. They appealed to the Governor. I said, 'you have de stroyed the homes and hearts and hopes of the men and women of your town; you have been warned. You will wear the stripes, and break rock on the public roads for two years.' They are still at it. On May 26th, 1907, North Carolina declared for State-wide prohibition by 45,532 majority. If the people of my State vote on the question to morrow they would cut out the saloon by 150,000 majority, for they have tasted all the sweets of temperance and will never go back to the idols of drunkenness and sin." Ex-Governor Glenn, of North Carolina. In response to the question, "Do hogs pay?" a Kansas editor replies: "A good many do not. They take the paper several years and then have the post master send it back marked 'Re fused' or 'Moved to Oregon."

They do, but the taxes some of the speculative land holders have to dig up for harbor improvements is what is worry ing them. Most of these specu lative lands are held by absentee owners who do not import any freight. However, the higher the speculative lands are taxed and the more money expanded in im proving roads and harbors, the more valuable the lands become, E.
