from Ood. 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.

Abe Martin
; Henry L. 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.

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.

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.
