California's output fiom its oil fields in 1904 was 29,600,000 barrels, taking first place up to that time. The 1905 output in Texas was an increase of 8,000,000 barrels over Texas' record in 1904. Where an individual, a grange or a community really desires to have a lib rary nothing can long be an obstacle1 The start may be a humble and even un promising one, but the thirst for know ledge will discover a way to be satisfied. One grange of less than 20 members started with a $2 gift from each member and at meetings took a penny collection for 'ibrary purposes. In this simple way it grew to have more than 160 volumes' of well selected literature. Another! started with gifts of chickens which were sold to buy books. Such starts as these ! are sure to be productive of much good j because the desire has prompted some ', slight sacrifice to secure its object. j HIGHEST PRICES PAID Call and see us before you sell Jefferson Ave, and Greenwood St. La Grande. Oregon e ii,, - - A TEN CENT SMOKE Schiller's Unionliand made and made in Oregon SGHE&RER'S A TEN CENT SMOKE - i ! i t SOME STA'tRlSULFS Leading Democratic paper do not find much ground for encouragement in the recent State elections and primaries. The most important of these is the Ver mont election, in which Fletchrr D. Proc tor (Rep ) son of Senator Proctor, was elected Governor by a majority of some 15.000 over Percival W. Clement, who ran as an independent Republican, in dorsed by the Democrats. In its bearing on the fall campaign there 19 "no comfort" in this election for the Democratic party, admits the New York World (Dem); and the Brooklyn Eagle (Dem.) thinks it indi cates that the Republicans are "safely in the saddle." So far as Vermont election has any natioral signiticarce, agrees the New York Times (Dem.), "it shows that the party alinement holds good and that the Democrats have made no progress in regaining public confidence." Some of the Democratic papers, however, recall the the fact that only once in the past twenty five years has the country failed to go Democratic in November when the Republican majority in Vermont has fal len below 25.000. or failed to go Repub lican when the'rnajority has risen above that figuie. The present majority faiis 10.000 short of the required 25. COO. Unless taiss:gn tails, therefore, they ar gue. November.'will see a Democratic Congress elected. Another interest ng political feature 0; the week was the defeat of Senator La Follette's candidate tor the Republican gubernatorial nomination in Wisconsin, in the first trial of the very primary law which the Senator had given the state as a safeguard against boss rule. The New York Evening Mail (Rep.) thinks perhaps the Wisconsin voters took this way of reminding La Folletle that he is getting to be something of a boss him self. In the Maine campaign most attention was attracted by a speech of Secretary Taft. in which he declares that the issue of a Congressional campaign this fall is President Roosevelt himself. It is con sidered likely that this speech will be widely circulated as a campaign docu ment After speaking of the President's policy and the importance of electing a Congress in harmony with the Executive, Mr. Taft continued: " It is, therefore, just and fair to say that the issue of the present campa gn does net involve merely the approval or disaprova! of Mr. Roosevelt's policy but it involves the question whether that policy shall be carried to a successsful issue, or shail be defeated by a vote of want of confidence. "It has been suggested at times, as if it were a ground for criticizing the Re publican party and the Congressmen who now go back to their constituents for a judgement upon their course, that they propose to make Mr. Roosevelt the issue in this campa gn. They do propose the issue; not in what he has said, but in what he has done and what the party has upheld him in doing. The Republican majority in the Serate nave loyally ac cepted Mr. Roosevelt's leadership, have approved his recomer.datlons, and have stood by him in formu'atirg into legisla tion that when should enable him to carry out his p:l;cy.
