John 10:20, 27. , While Tom Kay, Neuner und others who "might huvo run" refuse to express a public preference among republican can didates for governor, Jay Upton, political boss of Bend, anounces himself for Norblad. Which makes his friends and former followers in the campaign of four years ago wonder what he is angling for. No one can say with assur ance, but Upton is a clever politician. . The intangibles tux must, it seems, go through the experi ence of a test case-in the courts along with previous measures , designed to improve our tax health. It is possible that the law may be unconstitutional but it's unfortunate that we can't let well enough alone and try out a new revenue scheme for at least one year. When passed it was considered generally satisfactory. Now when paying time arrives it is attacked from a dozen angles.. -. Rodney Dutcher points out from Washington that the Senate's long fight over the confirmation of Charles Evans Hughes' appointment to the supremo court has done more to damage the sacrosanct air that surrounds that tribunal than anything in a generation. Heretofore the court has almost been considered above criticism, Hereafter, remarks Butcher, it will be watched closely and very possibly criti cized aplenty. There is no reason to regret this. The supreme court is u branch of our government, just the same ;as thSenato and the, House and the pxocutive department. It possesses enormous' power and its members hold office for life. Is there any reason why it should not get its share 'of criticism when deserved?.. Carnival arguments are with us again. Lust year business 'men (and many others as well) had hoped would soc the last of street carnivals sponsored by local organizations in need of "benefit" money. Now there is a proposal for a ;carnival during the coming summer so that the Legion may lidd to its normal school student loan fund. The motive is excellent, the method poor. Carnivals seriously injure local business during tho month they are staged and everyone has hoped that this consideration would bring an end to sponsoring by any organization. Several firms have said they would much rather make a cash contribution to the benefit fund than have money raised by bringing in a carnival. COME - A LfTTt-E: Ovew A Block" A4' JUfeT LOOv' at rtis.

Corbcll, candidate for the republican nomination for governor, viewed La Grande yesterday in the light of possible votes during the May primaries and received a gratifying welcome. At least he seemed well pleased with the lay of the land and comment up and down the street was favorable. Corbcll meets people well, is naturally democratic and friendly, and impresses you as a thoroughly competent business man. He has none of the earmarks or 'manners of the proverbial politician and numerous La t! ramie people were heard to express themselves yeslenlay to the effect that Corbcll is easily on the inside track in the primary race. He is already strong in Kaslurn Oregon and his per sonal stylo of campaigning will probably increase the major ity he can expeel in this area.

KMl'I.OYM HNT I NCKKAS1 N(J Sickened by tho di.s;niooful lirawl in the senate, the jmMic finds surcease from its sufferings in the latest report of the department of labor in Washington on employment condi tions. Reports like this one are what make government bureaus worth their suit. Secretary Davis sees employment taking an upward swing and predicts, on the basis of actual figures, that employment will be back to normal within three mouths. There was tin unusually low point during January and the entire winter has seen more than the usual amount of unemployment. Winter always brings a certain amount of seasonal unem ployment, but the level has been below normal this winter. The concerted efforts of business, the government and the people to avert what might have been a serious economic depression could not prevent all sag, in view of world condi tions and the stock market crash, but il appears that the country will lie normally busy much sooner than would have been possible without their voluntary cooperation. With the opening of spring a new era of industrial ami building activity will begin. There lias been enough recovery from what might have been a disastrous period of depression lo prove that the national economic structure is sound to the core. A saxophone Is produced l'.

I LE s for 1929 In the sales of all cars in Union County except two low priced cars. Official 1929 registration figures (Compiled by the Oregon Motor Regis ter) show that CHRYSLER again Outsold all cars except Ford and Chevrolet in Union County. (Note we do not include Plymouths sold by us in 1929): This is the fourth consecutive year in which CHRYSLER has outsold all cars in Un ion County except Ford land Chevrolet Chysler having been in the same position in 192(5, 1927 and 1928. The overwhelming preference for Chrysler is clearly indicated by the tot-il registration figures for the four year period. CHRYSLER Proves What It Is By What It DOES W hen we say that (he new Mulli-Hangc Chryslers arc swifter in pick-up than other cars smooth er in flight faster in clinihing hills easier lo drive we arc simply station; facts you can prove to yourself. When we say Chryslers provide longer life greater durability lowered operating and mainten ance costs we are stating facts that have already been proven by the' tremendous preference for Chrysler. tiii: M'iMcitioit v.M.ri: or chuym.ku is kmmm'UO y tiik I'i,kii:s. ri:itsoMM:i, and i;i)iir. mi:nt in-' tint si;uvi'ii iu:iin .viF.vr.
