William Miller
For The Legislature
In offering William Miller to the people of Union
county as a candidate for the legislature the Prohi
bition party is presenting a man of known worth
to every citizen. He has always been a Republican
in politics is a thorough supporter of Colonel
Roosevelt and one of the "original" Roosevelt men
of this county.
William Miller bears a reputation of clean, honor
able living fair business dealing and stands today
before the people wthout a single blemish of charac
ter.' He is abundantly capalbe of handling all legis
lative questions and knows what the people of Ore
gon need, especially of the eastern portion of the
state.
This is a good time to lay aside all prejudice and
vote for William Miller for representative.
Whether you be Prohibition or not, Whether you
be a Democrat, a Republican or a Bull Moose, you
all know that with William Miller in the legislature
you will have a man who actually represents you and
who will not be taken off his feet by .the loud hurrah
of any crowd of men who seek legislation for selfish
ends.
This advertisement compiled and paid for by the
Prohibition central committee of Union county.

, After reading what la going ou In
the Sautl ridge tommy the question
of land prices, actual profits, prices
of fruit and other details bei.onie im
portant. In Uie first place permit this state
ment which will be borne out by
proof: Fruit, land prices In ' the
Cirande Ronde valley are the lowest
In the whole northwest country.
When the first platting of commer
cial orchards was made there was
established the price of $450' an acre
for planted land whbch included care
of the trees for five years. Strange,
as it may eeem this price has never
been raised. The reason for, it Is
this: Most of those who were the
pioneers In the commercial orchard
decided the fruit industry could get
no better encouragement thau to
keep the price of the planted land
down. There Is a positive disposi
tion and intention to make the
Grande Ronde valley a fruit pro
ducing valley rather than a wheat
producing seotion. This could only
follow by attracting the Investor
here who wanted the first class or
chard proposition and who was hap
plly suprised that prices were so low.
By mutual agreement' of the owners
In the 'Sandrldge district the prlcp
of $130 an acre has besn retained, al
though understand there are many
orchards In that section that could
not bo bought for twice that amount.
And In several Instances owners will
not price their orchard lands.
'Last year the prevailing prices for
apples on board cars at Imbler and
Allcel were: Newtowns. $1.82; Rome
Beautys, $1.23; Gano. $1.20; York
Imperial, $1.20. It takes but a few
strokes of the arithmetical pencil to
show the handsome profit from the
orchards under these prices, and a
low more strokes will show where a
handsome profit will follow at much
less prices than those. For bear i'i
mind your expensive Irrigation is
eliminated on the Si drldge and sev
eral other matters fiat cost iuney
in other fruit districts are not nec
essary here which o into Uk'. fcjiH-r-al
profit column. The interest on
your Investment 1s cut down by.: half
or more, which is ' ro small inm.
The simplest problem in the world Is
when prpven orchard land is sold
for $130 why pay $1200 an acre for it?
Thai is the probein you must take
with you when you come from Hood
River, Rogue' River, or Yakima to
the Sandrldge. . .
As yet the prevailing price has not
been established for this year's crop.
: although there are a number" of
smaller contracts being made. In
California N'ewtowns are bringing
this year $1.25 per box In the or
chard. At Payette, Idaho, the apple
crop la bringing from $1.10 to $1.23
for the entire crop and an average of
41 cars per day are being shipped.
You naturally will say "Why has the
Sandrldge not such contracts?" And
the answer Is the Sandrldge Is a
new district, does not possess the ad

AToid Sedative Cough Medicines.
If you want to contribute directly
to the occurrence of daplllary bron
chitis and pneumonia use cough medi
cines that contain codlne, morph'.ne,
heroin and other sedatives when you
have a cough or cold. An expectorant
like Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Is
what Is needed. That cleans out the
culture beds or breeding places for
the germs of pneumonia and other
germ, diseases. That Is why pneu
monia never results from a cold when
Chamberlain's Cough (Remedy Is used.
It has a world wide reputation for Its
ures. It contains no morphine or oth
er sedative. For sale br all dealers.

Stock Ranches
With the cheap range rapidly becoming a
thing of the past never will we see cheap cat

tion is increasing much faster than beef can
be grown. I have several opportunities
that just a few years hence will be looked
upon as wonders. I have two of the best
stock ranges in Union county. If you are a
cattleman and live in the county you will
know them well. Come and let me tell you
where they are. Very little cash required,
put the balance of your money in stock. The
Sncrease of a calf to a beef steer on such
ranges as I offer you will make common le
