YOUNG BRUNO
DIES RESULT
OF WILD BLOW
' Union county grows the finest cherries in the world and
numerous land owners are appreciating that fact with plans
for cherry orchards. Experts continue to say that this valley
is ideally adapted for this profitable fruit.
!; Fame has its irritating penalties. Already Anne and Lindy
find their new son the subject of cartoons and the number of
diapers he requires the objective of inquisitive reporters.
The poor child must grow up in the light of publicity such as
only an international hero can rate, and the privacy of his
parents can be nothing better than that provided by a ring of
guards. The family's only chance for oblivion is for some
unknown flyer to make a non-st,op flight around the world.
Considering- the talk about a business depression, the
United States senate is in a spending mood. They have
approved a veterans relief bill that will provide hospital and
physician's care at government expense far beyond old
standards. Illnesses not traceable to service will be paid for
by the government and wives and children of veterans also
come under the protecting federal wing. The bill is fine
for veterans but we are inclined to question the good sense
of such an expenditure at this time. Many war Veterans
need help but a good portion of these would have needed it
regardless of war service. The question Is one of federal
policy. If tho public approves, there is no other objection.

more than' the country can well afford. .
POSSIBILITIES FOR GOVERNOR .
, There will be no shortage of good material for the repub
lican candidate for governor. Tom Kay, state treasurer and
ione of the best business men in public life in the state, snys
he is willing to accept the nomination. Bob Sawyer, news
paper publisher at Bend and recently member of the State
highway commission, tells friends that he is also in a recep
tive mood but that he will not work for the nomination. And
.Ralph Hamilton, Bend lawyer and president of the state
chamber of commerce and speaker of the house of representa
tives, would probably like to be seriously considered when the
republican committee gets in session.
All three of these men are strong and all arc extremely
competent. Kay, probably, has the inside track at the pres
ent time largely because he was considered' as a strong
contender last year and because his name is most widely
known throughout the state. Hamilton has also developed
considerable strength as far as political conversation goes
nnd may become a big factor with the committee.
Sawyer, while he will not turn a hand to secure the nom
ination, has a host of friends and admirers in practically
every section of Oregon and it is possible that he might
loom up strong as a compromise candidate in case the committee-
makes slow headway in its selection. Sawyer is not
a politician and has gained a formidable following because of
his disinterested, devoted work for better highways, lie is
known as a successful business man of sound judgement and
would be a progressive executive who would not be dictated
to by special interests or self-seeking politicians. v Another
new contender seeking to grasp the Joseph mantle is Clark,
of Portland, but his strength is doubtful.
All in all, the republican state committee will have more
candidates than ease and anything can happen when they get
lo counting noses. One thing seems certain: Eastern Oregon
will be a greater factor is u good chance for an Eastern Ore
gon man. We have the material and the inclination. All that
is required is a dependable block of 10 votes when the ballot
ing starts.
