Mr. Everett E. Horn of the U. S.

It is planned to organize a crew un
der Horn's direction and make a
systematic campaign, beginning at a
point about midway between Ontario
and Vale and move up the Malhuer
Valley.
Horn is now busy experimenting
with a number of different . poison
baits in order to determinate which
are most effective at this time of
year. As soon as this information
is obtained, the crew will be organ
ized and the fall work begun. These
wimals have become so numerous
in some places that great losses are
sustained from the destruction of
crops and from the breaking of ir
rigation canals To rid the county
of them is a tremendous task, one
which will not be occomplished with

DAWN OF A NEW ERA
Epoch-Making History To
Be Made in the Rehabilita
tion and Reconstruction
Of Uncle Sam's Do
main Next March
The dawn of a newer day
is just beginning to break in
the far eastern sky and we
are looking to it like the
Prophets of yore, when they
followed the shining Star of
the East and found "that
peace which passeth all un
derstanding. To those who
are versed in ancient lore.
even the most unthinkinp, nk
it is obvious that the Politi
cal - Powers - That - Be, and
their administration, have
proven to be the utmost
failure. Abraham Lincoln,
beyond any doubt, Ameri
ca's greatest American, and
whose place leddy Koose-
velt succeeded in the hearts of the people like the greatest personifications and
exemplifications of Americanism in their way, said and practiced, that it was
possible to fool some of the people some of the time, but not to fool all of tho
people all of the time. The one-man government of the past seven years did
fool most of the people for a time, but the peoples' better judgment again pre
dominates and they now see the Administration in the high-light of thir in
efficient attempts that are becoming more deplorably pathetic as they make thoir
final struggle to hide bo many mistakes and things from the eyes of not only the
people of this country, but of many of he sister nations of Europe. The senti
ment of large numbers of important political fields throughout the country is
that only through the restoration of the great Republican party can the many
gigantic problems of the day be solved. Others have tackled the job and found
it entirely too difficult to handle. In Senator Harding's hands (including a Re
publican Congress) lies the country's salvation. Let all of us become converts,
and replace our nation at the head of the list, which position it formerly occupied.
until he struck out for himself and
became the moving spirit of the
Cove bank, shows what can be done,
and to the young men of today who
claim there is no- such thing as op
portunity Hugh Mc Cull's experience
right here at home certainly offsets
any such argument. When he went
with the bank at Cove ha took his
heart and soul with him and placed
them squarely in. that institution.
How much this maens is proven by
the growth of that bank, the increase
in stock values and the successful
business career under the McCall ad
ministration. Naturally -being am
bitious for larger undertakings, when
the United States National Bank at
Vale made him a proposition of im
portance, he accepted it and Vale
will be benefitted by the removal of
the McCall family to that city.
The Observer cannot refrain from
congratulating Mr. McCall on his
