The citizen who is a descendant of those who made Old Glory the symbol of our strong? nation, who has pride in the might of our cowi try, and who loves the flag and a it implies, is the man who will go to the polls on May 19, and vote care fully, intelligently and for wlat !; himself thinks is Just and he will nominate the candidate who will fill the office for the service he can render his country, and not for the man who desires it for private gain. Among the most important duties of citizenship are voting and office holding. Every Individual should JoJ tbf potittsac party of his choice, tody tba taoasares to be voted on 'and the rueords and platforms of candidates and then follow the dic tates of . his own conscience. No good citizen stays away from th. polls on election day. The holding of public office Is a duty of citizen ship to be performed by many. Men of ability and honor often do not care to give up their time to the holding of public office, but the public needs this, kind of men, not those who want the office for pri vate gain. If the right men get the office and. his service is sat.'a factory and for the public good, he should be kept there. If the other kind gets the office and proves in capable, dishonest and inefficient, he must be ousted and another given the place. ' Because our government is repre sentative, its welfare depends up" the interest its citizens take in it, and the development or deterioration of the government depends upon the standard of its citizenship. The citizen who carries out his duties honestly, who votes conscientiously, who performs the duties of public offico unselfishly, is the man the present exigency calls for. Citizens of that type are those who will BROGAN'S FESTIVAL. On this Saturday Brogan will hold her Apple Blossom Festival, but she will not stick strictly to the blossoms of the apples but should have a few other varieties out in full bloom. Outside of the good time which is promised, consisting of the barbe cue, entertainments and dances, she id giving the people of Malheur county and the outside a chance to come in and visit, seeing at first hand what a wonderful valley the Brogan River valley really is. This kind of advertisement is not of the old, hollow "boom" type, but will bring visitors in who will build homes and farm the land, gradually developing the community firmly and substantially. It will not at tract the speculator who is merely a non-producer but will invite the home-maker, who will raise his fam ily and become a worthy and con scientious citizen. That Brogan has something to show the visitor is a self-evident fact to - anyone who has been through the valley. Fruit of all kinds grow hardily and abundantly, nlfalfa is certain "f three crops a year, and vegetables and grains .hrivo and produce large yields. And bear in mind that the Brogan valley is one of the many valleys throughout this great Malheur coun ty which is under irrigation, with sufficient water, the proper climate and a quality of soil which assures an agricultural success. It is little wonder that we are justly proud of the county in which we live. The primary election is fast ap proaching. It's a man's duty to vote if he has to pick out the name that sounds best, because he can't kick about the government with a clear conscience unless he does vote, ft isn't a bad idea to talk politics with your neighbor and find out who's running for office before you I see the ballot. ' night it makes the orchardist cuss. Last Sunday some of Vale's base ball stars put off taking their after dinner nap until they got on the diamond. With A Btreet graveled, graded and with a concrete gutter, it looks like the city was kind of putting on a bit of spring finery, and there won't be much kicking if she con tinues to doll up. Well, well, the city well is down 28 feet and we will soon have a 24 hour water service, which is just as many hours a day as New York has. The Women's Club has a reason for offering the boys eats to help them clean up the cemetery Wednes day, May 24th. They want a crowd out. Spring weather cures the blues but in the springtime when old Jack Frost comes stealing in at Broad wav at Stark Portland, Ore.
