Some hold to the belief that it is just a preliminary skirmish, and the main question will appear on the bal- jlot in the November election. This is not correct, uiiu yivuriv jvocjs iw . m mind. ' ' ' CATTLE AND HORSE BREEDERS. Baker's meeting of. the Cattle and Horse Breeders was a revelation' to many. In the first place, few people would believe that an organization with the apparent strength of thia one could be formed in so brief a time. But such is true, nevertheless, and the future strength is going to be a decided factor in Oregon. . We believe without doubt it is the best organized band of men in the By this GEMS FROM THE BIBLE. Jeremiah 17:5-14 - Thus suith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose iheart departh from the Lord. I For he' oha.1) be like the heaUi ' in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in u salt land and not inhabited.

' Will the Republican national dele gates really nominate Hughes for the presidency? .'.,,. , " . - There iis but one way to name Hughes With any certainty. The delegates can convene without any extraordinary fuss or excitement, pass resolutions and platform, nomi nate Hughes and a vice-president and ' immediately adjourn. .!! It will then be in the people's hands and it will be mighty awkward for I Justice Hughes to back up. ! But if the usual hurrah is followed; ,! if committees are named to wait upon Hughes and a lot more red tape fol lows, it is a good safe bet Huges will not accept. ' : ROUTE FOR AUTO RIDES.

Cootidgt, Aaalatent -thitrt To tell a man whut kind, of tabacco he should use, or suggest to a woman what kind of a hat she should wear might not meet with ' general v ap- ! proval, but to suggest to several hundred auto owners a good route for an enjoyable ride is quite in order. J This being true we want to offer ! that suggestion. When you oil up your car Sunday morning bright and early, : take a few turns around the block to see that the steering gear ia in tact, i J ami then honk loud and long for the family, keep in mind that the newji roads being made' and the old roads ' being graded by the county court are ', entitled to your inspection first of all. 1 1 This is true because right now there ' I is quite a good roads controversy on in Union county. Quite a number of good citizens believe the county should bond and build hard-surfaced roads, and a very, very large number of other equally as good citizens believe we can live comfortable for a while with dirt and gravel roads. Ride over what has been done; examine the work closely, and then register your opin ion at the polls on May 19th by voting either for or aguinst the bonding ques tion, according to the dictates of your own judgment. '. After having ridden over these roads strike direct for Union and Cove. In the Union country, besides seeing the old friends who live in that section you will see some very fine prune awl cherry orchards in blox: ' see tho alfalfa in all its glory for around Union alfalfa rules the roost. Then drive on into Cove. Probably see Hugh McCall and Judd Geer dis cussing Republican politics, but don't enter the argument for you might get hurt Just drive on through Cove and begin ascending the hills. There you will see nature in all her glory, ar rayed in her Easter costume. Orchard after orchard will attract your attention, each one seeming to be more beautiful than the other. Your machine will begin to wheeze a little for you are now climbing a steep grade. It don't make any difference ! whether it is a Ford or a Packard, it ' I will wheeze, and soon you will find your socond gear. But that doesn't mattor, keep right on up tho hill until you finally roach Harry Antles and the Anderson ranches. Then stop your car and survey the landscape. Cherry orchards in full white bloom dot the long stretch of green fields. Prune orchards assert themselves occasion ally, and once in a while the crab npplo tree in its bridal costume claims your attention. It ts a sight of the year; a sight that wiH make you give thanks to your Creator that you are permitted to live, if there is anything to you at all, and a sight that forces to your hps unstinted Rondo volley.
