Address all communications to THE OBSERVER. 1710 Sixth Street. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 7. 1916. Poll are open until 8 p. m. 5f you haven't voted yet, there is Rtill time to do your duty. The count is going to be long and tiresome in Oregon. It is proposed to ask the state legis lature to appropriate $50,000, or $25, 000 for two years to advertise Oregon scenery. The idea is to attract tourist to Oregon. Hotel men, advertising men, auto mobile men, bankers and others are interested. It is a good idea to advertise Ore ton scenery, to attract tourists, etc. But it is not a proper function jf the state to appropriate this money. The gentlemen who are interested should get the money elsewhere. A a matter of fart, the railroads do this work anyway as a matter of business n order traffic. Th rail-roads are dome the work well. following letter which wa written to ; tat office a?e " 7 . , . me presicen oi inc .ai;seuujnrii v- j ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to 1 Animals, Francis H, Rowley: My dear Dr. , Rowley:-! , thought i nun, c wint ifc, " v ..... . j the name of Owen Lewis of .

He was noted for his kindness to animals, especially hi horses. He r.eved missed an opportunity to give them grass or apples or pears that he might find on the ground as he went here and there through the gardens with his ice for the customer. Hi horses locked for and watched him constantly. They were sure of an armful of grass, if it had been newly cut, or s pear if one had fallen from the tree. He treated both alike; first or got a mouthful, then the other, J J imJ h alwavs had time to wait for.s them to finish the last mouthful. He New York. Indiana, Ohio and Illi- nois will teil the story. j Don't forget the Observer extra Wednesday morning will give you the latest news. Four a. m. in La Grande will be 7 a. tn. in New York and the result will be known by then unless the race is very close. Would you sleep soundly tonight if you were a candidate? Tis better to have run and lost than never to have run at all. Don't mention politics for a few aays to the losing candidate. Do un to them as you would have them do unto you if you had run and been de feated.

The other day an ice man died in Boston. He had been see who needed ice and the men car ried it, rather than make the already 1 heavy work of the horses greater. It 1 is too bad that this tort of driver should not be with the poor dumb creatures far longer, he set such a I good example. I wonder if in some way this could reach other drivers who have to do with those faithful servants our horses who work for nothing hard i ll day, and look for nothing but a sciuare meal and a kind word. I know I if there is a way that other driver j J niay know this that you will find i: . i better than I. so I send this out f i J justice to one who rightly deserves j i credit.

' EDITORIAL COMMENT Little Mud-Slinging. It is a satisfaction to note that there is little mud-throwing in this cam paign locally and that the election promises to be conducted along that line.

In its effort to secure funds for the building of a state highway between La Grande and Pendleton and in mak ?ijg application for federal funds for eid in building a new road from Elgin to Milton and for improvement of the Thomas and Ruckles road the county court of Union county is moving in liie right direction and is working in an effort to secure for this section that which is ciue it ia the matter of improved roads, and in the end means ptactically a continuation of the now f-mcus Columbia highway from the present eastern terminus to the Idaho lir.e. The fact that State Highway Engi neer Lewis has made a thorough in spection of the route between La Giande and Pendleton and highly rec emmended the same leaves no doubt as to the results. We are also assureJ that reasonable aid will be secured from the government for aid in build ing the Elgin-Milton road and in the improvement of the Thomas and Ruckles road running northwestward from Summerville The Recorder is particularly pleased with the activity shown by members of the court in that wn have contend ed for many months that a state high way should be constructed through northeastern Oregon to connect with the Columbia highway.
