Union county is a strongly republican county and gave H. M. Cake a hand some majority in the" primaries and will give him like support In the gen eral election.. The correspondent per haps talked with ;one ' enthusiastic Chamberlain man and was so' filled with his eloquence that he Imagined that the entire county l for Chamber lain. There Is no reason for a solitary republican voting for Governor Cham-1 Due to berlaln. . The East Oregonlan Is right. The correspondent was undoubtedly in er Tor, as Chamberlain boomers thorn selves have given up hops of carrying this portion of the state, and are look big to Multnomah county to tip the scales. Let it be reiterated, "There Is no reason why a strongly republican county should glvs a majority of Its s votes to a democratic candidate for ' the United States senate." . weiore the railway commission of Washington the other day, a witness a prominent wheat grower of thnt -state, testified that It costs (14.91 per acre to raise wheat on summer fnl low.
