THE POLITICAL BACE TRACK.
--' As fuial returns from the recent
primary election are made it would
aa.m tnat tne game oi pomica in
comes more of a gamble as the years
-advance. It is a race-track upon j,a8 for mnny years that the poHti
which the racer runs without chart orX.,,) race-truck i a slippery plat and
"dope" sheet, and men and women
who do have "dope" s-heets on the
entries are only making guesses with
little to guide their judgment.
For instance, in the race for Pub
lic Service Commissioner from the
Eastern Oregon district, a Salem man
' wins. We say this with the full
understanding that he is as much a
bona, fide resident of Salem as a man
can be of any town who owns a home
and schools his children in that town.
This may not be anything to place
against Mx. Corey and we do not wish
it construed that way, for the point
we are getting at is results of mi
election. '
No one seems able to understand
why Mr. Corey finally took first pice
in this nice with six starters, five of
whom actually lived, resided and
bought his pork chops east of the
mountains. Perhaps it was the sys-
tern of personal letters .Mr. Corey
ott nut nil voters iiH thi'v ruirist-
ered. Perhaps it was the curd show
ing the six Corey children. Perhaps
it was the influence of having been
the secretary of the commission for
Home time. Yet who can figure it
out?
And as the results arc analyzed in
many cases the sunpriso does not
Itwn but continues to grow
1NOL
the' least of these surprises was the
race for representative in thu legis
lature wherein C. A. Small polled such
a heavy vote. While having resided
here for some time and bearing an
cxceiltnt name Mr. Small was not
prominent in public uti.iirs and it was
believed that few people outside of
la Grande knew him. Yet he won
ly a very heavy vole.
The contest between Mr. Kitchen
and Mr, Dixon was voi'y close yet the
political "dopsters" all hud it figured
that Mr. Dixon's extensive personal
acquaintance in La Grande would
make him an easy winner, lie did
receive a good vote in l.a drande nut
the outside country supported Mr.

Don't forget that honey, syrup, and
all sweets are winter foods.
Greens of all kinds are the m,pst
valuable Spring foods.
Coffee drinkers are the first to have
the backache.
Just a little care of the health dur
ing the Spring will make that season
as healthful as any other.
A little care of the health from day
to day is of more real value than all
the health insurance. 1
Many of our Spring and Summer
disorders are due to a winter dint in
warm weather.
Spring fever or that tired feeling
means too much heavy food at a time
when the warm weather makes its
utilization in the body impossible.

Union county politicians thbse
who f:.iled, particularly don't , ap
preciate the kindness of the. Observ
er's disposition, we bet. Now, over
at Pendleton the Weakly Rulldogjrer
comes out once a week, and this week
it is particularly vicious. What's
more it picks on those who fell by the
wayside in last week's primary. Over
here, in Union county, wounded poli
ticians are treated with consideration
due one who rnn his best, albeit he
failed. But not so across the big hill.
The proof is appended herewith from

their diabolical horns the while. And

MARRIAGE BARGAIN ASKED.

Fort Mudison, la.. May 18. Want
ed Best rates on marriage licenses
and the lowest prices on officiating at
weddings from ministers or justices.
Also wish advices on hotel rates.
Lowest bidders will be given prefer
ence.
County Clerk O. R. Johnson ripped
upon an unimposing envelope ad
diessed in a scrawled hand the other
morning. A glance at the letter it
contained proved that missive had
been penned under extremely nervous
conditions. Possibly the writer was
afflicted with the seasonable attack of
love sickness, bethought the official,
and the letter bore out his beliefs.
It proved to be a communication
from a resident of Keokuk who first
advised the clerk that he was con
templating matrimony. He also ex
plained that he was attempting th-j
step with economy in view. He was
seeking bargain rates in the acquir
ing of a wife, the letter inferred.
He inquired the lowest price on a
marriage license. He also wanted to
know just how much the Fort Madi
son ministers or justices would tales
for tying the knot. He also stated
that ho might wish to put up at a lo
cal hotel and requested rates from
those institutions. Altogether it was
a matter of business with him.
In answer the clerk stated that the
regular price ot a marriage license
was $1. Much as he would like to
mark it down to 08 cents, the clerk
could not possibly do it. He also
gave him some valuable information
on hotel rates and marriage fees. It
appears as if bargain hunting is not
altogether confined to the female
species of our race.
