A number of attorneys not only of
this city, but elsewhere throughout
the state, entertain little doubt but
what tho supreme court will declare
the local option law valid In Union
county. The conditions In Grant
county are not Identical In a single ln
utanee with the conditions In Union
county. In Orant county there were
ninny errors In a number of precincts.
In many precincts the vote on prohibi
tion whs much less than for county
und t.t..ti officers, the total vote in
favor of local option In the entire
county was only 22. The conditions In
Orant county are such that there Is
hardly attorney In the state who has
read the briefs and decision, but what
agrees perfectly with the decision of
the supreme court in declaring the law
Void In Grant county, and practically
all of these same attorneys are equally
emphatic In expressing their opinion
that the same court will uphold the
law In Union county,
There Is quite a change In thy au
dition of things this January us com
pared with January. 1908. The cry
was car shortage all over the entire
country. Our lumbermen and fruit
growers lust tbotiHands of dollars by
not being able to got their products to
market. People In many sections of
the country actually suffered with
coal because the coal mines could not
get cars.
when the legislature meets. That sev
eral new hunting laws will bo legis
lated and passed, is a foregone conclu
sion and local hunters who do not par
ticularly care to do any hunting this
winter, had best wait until the new li
censes are Issued. The privilege will
not have to be repurchased after the
legislature meets, but new rules will
be effective and as soon as possible
(after enaction they will bo placed on
i the buck of the license as the laws
I that are soon to be. obsolete are at
present. Such an arrangement would
avoid conflict with the newer laws.
Dredge SiiiiiIt Valley,
For the past two or three months the
prospecting of gravel beds In the val
ley near Humpter, and the possibility
of the portles doing the prospecting
finding pay sufficient to Justify build
ing u dredge has been the cuuse of
much speculation about Sumpter dur
ing that time, says tho Baker City
Democrat this morning. In the mean
time the work has gone ahead with
never a word being given out that
would Indicate pay had or had not
been found. Of course, no one could
be found in Sumpter but knew that
there was good pay in th5 valley.
That much for the dredge prospectors,
ms they have never made public a
thing of what they found or their fu
ture plans. ' t
There remains part of their work as
seen by "the man on the fence." and
this Is quite encouraging for next sea
son in Sumpter. Eevrybody knows
they found something good or the
prospecting would not have been con
tinued so long. Since It has been an
nounced the work Is to be continued
next spring It seems safe to say there
will bo dredges taking out "gold.

This kind of a day gives us plenty
of active, pure atmosphere. Weather
like tho past few weeks n't this time of
the year' Is generally followed by con
siderable sickness. We have had little
general sickness in this county the
pnst year. This Is the season for win
ter and we need It. Heavy snows In
ine mountains fills the natural reser

of which means Irrigation.

Ing that quality mark, a Ford Imprint, with the biggest automoDiie
factory In the world making Ford can, and with that same old or
ganization that has made Ford cars known the world around hakhig
the present cars, Ford buyera have the strongest guarantee ever at
tached to any product.
I'Blng the same steel, Vanadium Steel, that th United States gov
ernment pronounces superior to Krupp armor plate, that enabled In
ventor Davis to reduce the weight of his new torpedo from lOfrO lbs
to 40 lbs , the same'steel that makes the safest steel rails ever turn
ed out, the most enduring locomotive frames ever manufactured,
Ford cars need no other defense as to their quality. Better material
than Ford uses cannot be bought.
With more good cars In dally use than any other manufacturer
ever built and every car a good car, every buyer a Ford booster, with
25,000 Ford cars shouting superiority. Is It any wonder that the Ford
factory has to work full force winter and summer, double snirts at
that, to fill orders, and that Ford has had to trlplo his capacity by
building the largest automobile factory in the world.
The very fact that. In spite of the enormous output, 100 cars per
day, the factory was oversold 3000 cars last seuson, Is a guarantee of
Ford value and your protection In buying. It's hurd to give away an
inferior product, the acr of qualit sells Itself. That's the reason for
tho new factory.
So It's an e.vreclse of good sense to buy a Ford the same good
sense that has already governed 25,000 buyers of Ford cars and the
first step in this exercise In the direction of a thorough Investigation.
Make us prove what we say or no sale If we could not, you would
be out nothing, when we do you get the biggest uutomoblle value, ever
offered. Come In today, or tomorrow If more convenient, or 'phone
us to come to you. We want to show you that we know what we are
talking about. . 1
And thing of thejnoney saved. In some Instances one or two
thousand, yes, three thousand dollars, and without sacrificing one
cent's wwrth of value. There Is some room for honest doubt that the
car for a thousand dollars more offers equal value with the Model "T"
Ford 4-cylinder 20 h. p. 6-Vassenger touring car at $850.00, so bank
the difference. It Is sure'to come In handy for something else.
