RE- The Observer has at considerable expense arranged to gather the com plete election returns of all the states, and also for Union and Wallowa coun ties. These returns will be free to the public. 1.e Observer gives this service willingly in recognition of the duty it owes this community. Through the cordial and ungruding co-operation and assistance of the La Grand Y. M. C.

Tuesday evening and have a comfortable place in which to receive the news. The -whole building will be THE CAMPAIGN NEARS AN END The campaign is at an end. The voting is tomorrow. The Observer hopes the voters will approach the voting booth with a feeling of solemnity. The campaign as such has been marked with a great deal of shallow thinking. One wonders whether many men and women have studied their histories, whether they ever read George Washington's Farewell Letter or Lincoln's Gettysburg address or other great putriotic American docu ments. The fact of the matter is that there are great and vital differences bs tween the two political parties, whose records should be well known. If a person espouses the Democratic causa let him stand loyal toward his party. If he joins the Republican party let him stand fast And by all means let him know what party he is a mem ber of and not wobble into fields of non-partisan clover. One of the fundamental differences between the two parties concerns the protective tariff.

If you believe in a protective tariff you should vote the Republican ticket; if you believe in a tariff for revenue on ly, or lean to the free trade theory even though in favor of cn anti-dumping law at the present time you should vote the Democratic ticket. A condition that has been discussed frequently in the present campaign is the fact that just now the United States is not at war and is enjoying the blessings of peace. That the country is not at war is due to the dis cretion and temper of the American people themselves. They do not want war. They would have been in wa. if they had wanted it. No one could have stopped the Spanish-American war. President McKmley tried tn He did not want war. The people i drove him to it. ! t.

The Democrats are presenting, and their claims should be considered, the progressive character of legislation enacted under the present adminis tration: the Child Labor law, the Ru ral Credits law, the Federal Reserve act, the Alaska Railroad bill, the Federal Shipping bill and the Adam son Eight Hour law.

For in.-nance seventy Republi can members of congress, our own Congressman Sinnott among them, voted for tho Adamson bill. The Democratic claim for their con tinuance in power is: First Keeping the country out of war. Second Passing progressive legis lation. Third Bringing about prosperity. The Republican claims to being re- turned to power are tnat they arc J j more worthy to be intrusted with the i ! government than the Democratic par ty, that history has shown the country to be more ably governed and affairs more ably administered under a Re publican administration than under I Democratic, that the country has pros pered under a protective tariff and j suffered a blight under such a tariff , as the Underwood bill. The course of j affairs the past four years have been I characterized by Republicans as full j e ; ; ,uA . . , American lives and liberties in Mex- ! loo, of extravagance in pork barrel ex penditures reaching almost two bil lion dollars in one congress, of tam pering with the civil sen-ice and re-introducing the Spoils system. The cause of the present prosperity is as signed to the great influx of war or ders and money from the warring na tions of Kurope. The Observer is frank in its sup port of Charles F.vans Hughes.
