Graveled Road May Soon Run From Ontario to Jordan Valley. ., Ontario, Or., Aug. 29 (Special) The good roads movement is gaining considerable ground into the vicinity of Ontario. A graveled pike, two miles In length. Is being built from Main street in Ontario west to the boulevard road. This road is being graveled at a cost of about $1,000 from dona Hons of Ontario business men and far mers, residing along the road. , The city Is also graveling Washington ave nue, the principal street leading to the fair grounds, and that road will be put In fine condition In line for the second annual Malheur county fair, Septem ber 26 to 80. ' Idaho avenue and the road to the Ontario-Snake river wagon 'bridge was graveled last year and is ' now the best road in the country. As soon as the road west to the bou levard is completed a movement will be started to Induce the farmers to continue the graveling along the boule vard and it is believed this pike will demonstrate to the county court the feasibility of graveling roads for this county and be an inducement for them to continue the work west to Vale and on to the county line and the boule vard road south to Nysaa and ; on through the Owyhee country, to Jor- ; dan valley. .

Official Announcement of Candidacy Is .Made at Portland. , (Portland Oregonlan.) John P.-(Jerry) Rusk, of La Grande Union county,' will be a' candidate for tbe republican nomination for repre sentative in congress from the Second Congressional district in the primary nominating election next spring. Mr. Rusk informally announced his can didacy yesterday, but at a subsequent date will make a formal announce ment. Accompanied by Mrs. Rusk, he Is at the Imperial for a few days on his return to La Grande from an out ing at Seaside. -J ' .: "I shall seek the nomination of rep resentative in congress at the hands of the republican voters of the Sec ond, or Eastern Oregon, congressional district," said Mr. fiusk, 'yesterday,' "I never have said that I would not be n candidate for congress next year and I do not Intend to say that I will not. I am making plans for conducting an aggressive fight! for this nomination. At the proper time I expect to issue a formal declaration of my candidacy and acquaint tbe voters with tbe principles on which I shall seek nomi nation and election to congress." s La Grande Sow Ills Home, . t; After a residence of ten years : at Joseph,, Wallowa county, 'whPi - hi practiced law, Mr. Rusk last year was e'lected , state ' representative, from Union and Wallowa counties. In the organization of the legislature, Mr. Rusk, after a protracted and exciting contest, was elected speaker of the house. ' Six weeks ago, Mr. Ruek left Joseph and located In La Grande and from there will direct his campaign for the nomination he seeks. ; As presiding officer of ths house, Mr. Rusk made a good record but his op ponents are apt to ask, him to 'explain to an Eastern Oregon constituency h's position in the legislature on the bill redisricting the state into represen talwe districts. Rusk was supported tor speaker by a majority of the Mult nomah county house delegation, and, as a rule, he played ball with them in matters ot legislation, although he never seriously neglected the real in terests of his own constituency, save perhaps when the Mahoney redisrict ing bijl was under consideration. Yoters Want to Know Why. The jneople ot Eastern Oregon were demanding jthat, since Oregon was to gain another representative In con gress, the counties of Eastern Oregon should be created Into a separate dis trict. That was the purport of the Mahoney bill which was finally passed by both houses. Even then Rusk had his eye on the republican" congressional nomination next, year and be stubbornly opposed every plan of redistrlctlng the stat that would cut Multnomah off the dis trict from which he expected to be come a candidate. He was very friend ly to the Multnomah delegation, a great majority of the members at least and he did not want the congression al districts to be so framed that In his candidacy for congress, he could not depend on the support of these friends in Multnomah, the county with one-third the total vote of the state. It will be only natural then that Rusk's opponents will see to it that be explain to the voters ot Eastern Ore gon why It was ha opposed the bill by Mahoney which gave to them their long cherished separate congressional district. l Sask Sot Only Aspirant. But Mr. Rusk Is not alone In his ambition to serve the people of East ern Oregon at Washington. Nearly every county In that district has from one (o three- favorite sons whose claims to a seat In congress are being presented thus early In the contest. It will not be long until tbe proscess of elimination will be Introduced and even then there la every Indication now that a sufficient number ot aspir ants will qualify for the final heat In the primary nominating election . to Insure a decdedly Interesting contest Aside from Mr. Rusk there are not less than IS other republicans resid ing In the Second congressional dis trict, who have been suggested as even more than "possibilities" for the VALUE OF A BANK ACCOUNT ; .
