Baker City, Jan. 22. The Herald
said laet night:
Right now there U considerable In
ward worry relative to the non-ap
pearance of a city election that waa
advertised for Baker City on January
IS, but up to this time has failed to
put in an appearance.
Those who were Instrumental in
calling the election are in the air.
They do not know what has become
of the lost child. According to a town
Joker the stated election must be un
der quarantine, as many other places
are at present. But health officers

state that is not true, for they deny
having been called upon to prescribe
for any election, neither have they
born consulted relative to Its condi
tion. Another who believes more or
lows In superstition, claims that the
election was called to amend the
charter so that Baker could pave her
sire?!", "n hnt pavlnir Is a proverbial
hoodoo In any form It Is mentioned.
Ho believes that la what has caused
the cogs to slip.
The notices which were carefully
posted calling the citizens' attention
to the election have In some Instances
been torn down, but occasionally one
may yet be found carrying the mes
sage of charter revision.
But the election has been lost. The
mayor and all the councllmen reluct
antly admit that it strayed away with'
out bell or mark. They do not offer
a suitable reward for the return of
tho same to the city hall, but there Is
an abiding faith among some of the
city hall employes that the officials
would dig up a proper reward and
rejoice over Its return much the same
as though a prodigal should wander
buck from a globe-trotting expedition
Finance, published, at Cleveland,
O., printed last week an article on
Oregon, written by Bishop Scaddlng,
referring to which It says:
The wonderful development of the
west which has taken place during
the past five years and which Is now
going forward. Is a matter of great
Interest to every citizen of this coun
try.
'The greatest development of oui
nation will unquentlonably come in
the development of the western half
of the United States during the next
25 years, and in this great develop
ment of the west, Oregon will be at
the head.
"The Immense resources of this
beautiful country of mountains and
plain, of clear, cool mountain streams
and health-giving climate are set
forth In a very interesting manner In
the interview to which we have call
ed attention.
"The possioiiiutttt ui oiiui &r;
deed great, and whether or not one's
life Is cast among the, developed por
tion of our great country, it behooves
one to keep In touch with the doings
of those who are working in the new
er lands."
