Local reading notices 10c (Mr line Irst Insertion; per line foe eacb Resolution of condolence. Us a line. The concensus of opinion among the leaders of the Republican party of Union county is to aBsIst In ! a measure the objects of the state as- 'sembly and see how it works, but while they may not seriously object to the state assembly plan they sea BO necessity of a county assembly. The' same reasoning that would su? gest a state assembly docs not n: ply to the county assembly for th reason that every voter in the county will have ample opportunity to In form' himself regarding the person ality and qualifications of the county '- candidates. The state assembly could adopt a party platform .tlm would be sufficiently broad to ccvor the general national and state I lues, which would In a great mean- ore cover the county Issues as far as any general platform could he ex pected to do. This would give tho ' party a general organization to dl ' rect and look after the campaign. i U- ,,: r The death of Senator Tom Plutt of ..New, York removes one o fthe big leaders of uolltlcal movements, For Jty past few years he did not have the control of things ase he once , .dld.nWheteher you admire his po ,. gltlon, neverteheless a man who had ,. such .absolute power over such a ; itate as New York and over the coun try generally has ability that few pns eases. . Like all mortal men he had to bow to the inevitable when the messenger of death called. ' According to the Walla Walla Bui letln, W. P.

Nelson State Veternarlan, has applied to the government authorities for aid in stamping out this dread malady, a remedy for which has not yet been discovered.. The Reser horses are the only ones afflicted with as far as the itate authorities know. 6 t City election next Monday. So far very lltle interest has been manifest caused no doubt by the lack of op position for most ' of the places. There are four candidates for mar shal hut even for this position but little interest is manifest The lat ter portion of the week, conditions may change. Along with the hutercups will come the spring crop of candidates, specially for state and district of fices, It Is a little early for county tpecnlatlon' however, It might be sur prising to know how many lightning rods are out If they could nly he jpotted.

It ought to be said that already people from the country are arriving in town to be present at the meet ings an dthe spacious tabernacle will doubtless be crowded to the limit of Its vast capa-lty. - A Crvclie. Did you ever see a creche? There Is one at the Buptlst church during the meetings. It Is a place where babies and children are kept and cared for while their mothers (and fathers and uncles and auntB) are at church. Let no one stay away from the tabernacle because of do mestic cares and difficulties such as children (and dogs); but the taber nacle Is like heaven In one respect at least, the dogs are on the outside. Leave the favorite dogs at home and (take the favorite choldren to the crecne at the Baptist church: no charge for attention. ' Advice When you arrive, unless you be long to the choir, place yourself in the bands of an usher. He knows where the best seats are. He mnst be systemntlc In order to assist the public as It crowds the space. u you nntj something some one has dropped, give It to one of ths ushers.
