While it is impossible for him to make a thorough canvaos of the entire county he has made many friends who will not hesitate to look after his interests during the rost of the campaign.

La Grande Precinct. ; Justice Peare J B Hough ' Constable J W lmaer The Elgin Recorder is correct in stating the question of the relocation of the county seat is purely a matter of business with the voters of tbe North end of the county. . Under present conditions it requires three days for these people to go and return to their homes from Union. It would certainly be a business proposition for them to vote for a change that would better their conditions. ; ' v The county seat proposition is purely 'a business question with the voters iu this end of the county. We have no personal interest iu either of tho towns contesting for that honor. It is merely a matter , of dollar and cents to us. Elgin Recorder. Every man has a right to a&y who shall repersent him at his county convention. The direct primary law will give them that opportunity. It eliminates the "boss,; in politics If you wish to see those conditions vote for it otherwise vote no. All eyes may be turned toward St. Louis, as The . Globe Democrat says, but it is equally true that St. Luis has all her eyes on tbe size of tbe wad of her visitors. TARIFF ON OUR WHEAT. STORE People, who tbiuk. the Con gress of tbe United States could if they wanted to and Bbould if they could abolish all tariffs and proclaim universal free trades. and let prices of all things, labor and farm products, find an equliberium and be tbecame tbe world out, .will do well to remember that the world has not reached the blissful condi tions when the doors to - all natious stand wide open. A bushel of wheat from Grande Ronde valley cannei enter the market ' of ' France without paying a tariff of 36 cents end 8 mills. France purchases a great tunny bushels of wheat from the United States. For ihe ( nine months ending with March 1904 there were from the United States to Frauce 701,868 buchfcls of wheat valued in tbe United States at $558,145. The tariff of this wheat paid to the French Government for the privilege of selling it was 1258.365 about half as much as the first cost. The German tariff on a bushel of wheat is 83 cents and 3 mills. For nine months ending with March 1904 there were exported to Germany 7,026,827 bushels of wheat from the United States valued at the port at export at 15.680. 040. The Tariff on this wheat was $2,339,933. f A Two Light Electrolier Empire style complete with etched glass shades "and all attachments put'up iu year residence for foo' Sea samplesn our window.
