Bat no, they are left to the happy contemplation of their future gran deur aaya John McMannes of Pilot Rock, it was Goldsmith, we believe, who said that It had been a thousand times observed, and we must obsene . It one more, that the hours we pasa with happy prospects In view are more pleasing than those crowned with fruition. Just now, Jonothan Bourne and Stephen A. Lowell are in the full en joyment of auch reveries. , Pilot Rock is the banner republican precinct in Eastern Oregon. There are more republican votes polled here, ac cording to its population, than In any other precinct in the state. Natur ally the people of Pilot Rock feel that they are not "butting, in" when they Interest themselves in the candi dates to be voted for at the primary election which is to be held in' April next.,;,, ', Some of Judge Lowell's friends here believing he could not be elected sen ator, have made an effort to get him to try for Representative In Congress. This was, of course, after learning that their first choice, Hon. J. N. Bur gess, positively refused to enter the race. Judge Ellis has many friends here, all admitting his experience as a congressman and hia clean and envi able, record -were calculated to make him a formidable candidate, but no word' has been heard from the ex congressman as to his plans for the future. .;.. . t ,'. When the proposition of his candlT dacy for the lower house was called to hia attention, Mr. Lowell said: - "While appreciating the courtesy of my Pilot Rock friends, I must add that It 1a the ambition 'of my life to be a member of the Federal senate, and I have .not now, and never have had any ambition to go to the lower house. I hall be a candidate to succeed Jonath an Bourne at the next primaries In April and tie present outlook is moat favorable. If conditions remain as at present, I have reason to believe that my candidacy will be successful. I have assurances of support from all of the socalled wings of the party and from all sections of the state." While it Is very probable that otter candidates for the United States sen ate will develop as the time fcr the primaries draw near, an analysis at this time, of the political strength of the two avowed candidates may not be ontimely. " For the past eighteen years Stephen A. Lowell and Jonothan Bourne have been identified with the politics of this state. Both are well known. Both are burdened, with political records none to clean. One was a populist, the other supported a democrat for ' governor who is now a United States senator by reason of .his election as Governor. street apparently content as to his safety, h little knows what the next few hours hold in stor for him. Is that not correct? THIEF YALLET AND ITS FITlKi;. Yesterday the writer, in company with several La Grande men. made a trip over what Is termed the Thief valley country which l.'es half in Ba ker and half in Union counties. We visited the Fisk ranch which was purchased by J. C. Almlrall and as sociates at a cost of $32,000 for a res ervoir site and without doubt the new people are acting with the keenest wisdom in acquiring such a valuable key to a rich country.. At present the broad acres to the east raise nothing but sage brush, but it is easy to see that with a storage reservoir they will h Win VA ft A1 IntA .v l1 Both have now come back Into the " IT " ' .-i.t . i .v.. v-tlry. The new project when complet ed means an addition of vast weaitn fold and hate asked that their sins be forgiven. We believe that there is such a thing as a repentant sinner even among politicians and we believe that absolution should be granted on sat isfactory proof of the sinner's good Intention in the future. When a man aspires to a seat In the iutmcu otttM Bvut mter u pvtiucMj sins have been forgiven it Is import ant to know what he stands for we take it that Mr. Lowell la a so-called to both Baker and Union , counties. It means a -dense population, a thriving agricultural community. Beyond question the dry land In that section is not satisfactory as farm land. It is too uncertain and the cron Is too short, bnt -with wat m land in the country beats it. There is no reason why Union county should not profit in many ways from the new progressive republican, so is Jonothan " . T 7, n a . L.t ,, ! construction work wllf necessarily be unloaded at some point In Union conn- Bourne, and from the best information we have, both of these gentlemen stand for the initiative and referendum, the recall, and probably indorse the dem ocratic and insurgent tariff measures as against the stand taken by the pres ident for a deliberate and scientific re vision.' ; ; Vi'., -v. . ' Judg Lowell is a polished speaker and Jonothan Bourne is a polished writer. Mr.. Lowell is a poor man as compared with Mr. Bourne who is rat ed as a millionaire, and money Is an important factor in the race for a s -it in tne dignified and elaborate legislat ive4 body known as the United States senate, even under the blessed ""Ore gon system." Handicapped as Mr. Low ell will be, on account of a 'lack' of money, in making an aggressive cam paign and both standing identically for the same so-called reforms, -those in clined to Judge the future by the past, rfre disposed to grant to Mr Bourne a decided advantage in . a race, singl?

Cashier By a well-balanced attack and per fected defense La Grande was able to administer decisive defeat to the El gin high school football team last Sat urday afternoon on the Elgin grounds when the Caylor students : scored i points and held their own goal un blemished. The scores resulted from forward passes, one going to Couch in the third quarter when sprinted 20 yards for a touchdown and Garrity took another forward pass over the goal line after a 10 yard run follow ing a forward pass. The team worked smoother and with much more effect than last Saturday and its victory is all the more praiseworthy because the Elgiinites had strengthened up. Not withstanding this the Elgin players never got closer than 20; yards from the La Grande goal and for the most part were in La Grande territory.' Bolton was back in . the game and added smoothness to the backfleld ma chinery. His line plunging and the groundgalnlng propensities of Captain Lottes, coupled with . the playing of Garrity before he was taken from the game with a slight Injury to his an kle were some of the features of the game. Ralston dldnt get his punts away as creditably as usual but much of the gains were results of his boot Crawley took Garrlty'a place at end and played remarkably well. " Led by Bohnenkamp the tackle to tackle men broke through Elgin with a display or real football tact and Elgin's backfleld was constantly men aced by their aggressiveness. The victory was hard earned. The lineup: Left end, Garrity and Crawley; left tackle, .Woods; left guard, Snyder: center, Bohnenkamp; right guard. Casey; right tackle. Grlmmit; right nd.
