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. A., which has gener
ously donated its club rooms and also
a portion of the expense in order tj
accommodate its own members, the
public will be admitted to the Y. M.

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. In spite of what
may be said about a non-partisan
scientific tariff commission to regu-

late the tariff, the tariff question is
still in politics and always will be.
The duty of the voter is plain. 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

bers of congress the glory of passing

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
