A correspondent to the Portland
Telegram from IWnton county
makes the startling assertion that
Benton is the only county in the
state out of deht and paying cash
for its warrants as fast as issued.
The writer is evidently a trifle un
schooled relative to the financial
statistics of the state and his
article has called forth many con
tradictions. Lake county, which
paid up its last indebtedness six
months ago, waxes hot 'neath the
collar because not giveu credit for
its energy. Crook county has
been out of debt and had a balance
of cash on hand for so many
years that it is not worth time to
quote figures in refutation of the
correspondent's erroneous ideas.
The attendance at the fair dur
ing September was large beyond
calculation or expectation and
this will have a very desirable
effect upon the financial showing
which will ultimately be made.
But there has grown up an ex
pectation of extraordinary finan
cial results which it is well to have
known now will never be realized.
Some time ago it was stated by
one of Portland's newspapers that
the fair at its close would show a
profit for its stockholders of about
a quarter of a million dollars.
This is manifestly absurd.
It is now known that when the
fair opened the indebtedness which
confronted it amounted to a very
considerable sum of money and
that this amount was not com
pletely liquidated until the early
days of September. Under those
conditions to raise expectations
that the fair was going to be a
tremendous financial success is
only to breed disappointment later
on. The fair has been a great
success in many ways. It has
been great in and of itself. It has
greatly benefited Portland, it has
greatly benefited Oregon, Wash
ington; Idaho, California, indeed
all the states bordering the states
of the northwest Pacific coast. In
other respects it has more than
met original calculations. But it
will not make a very great deal of
money for its stockholders. Journal.
FIRST ASPIRANT SPFAKS.
Charles A. Johns, one of the
Republican aspirants for the
gubernatorial seat next June, in a
short letter to The Journal defines
the platform on which he will
stand with both feet about the
time the votes begin to be shoved
into the ballot box. Mr. Johns
didn't say that the letter was not
for publication so it is given in
full below:
Subject to the terms and condi
tions of the primary law, I am and
will be a candidate for governor on
the republican ticket.
It is not a question of salary.
There are many things fy more
valuable than gold, and to my
mind the office of governor of the
state of Oregon is one of them.
Am goinc to make an honorable
effort to secure that position and
want all my friends throughout
the state to assist me, and I appeal
to them for support. Any promise
or pledge will be made direct to
the people; no other promise or
pledge will be made.
Am not and will not be or be
come a candidate of any faction,
any man, or combination of men.
Will either be nomiuated or de
feated on my merits, and will not
in the least compromise my offi
cial integrity. Will stand by this,
even though it should cost me the
nomination. My nomination
would not mean the success or de
feat of any element of the republi
can party. I want to see the party
harmonized and united and the
whole ticket elected, and if nomi
nated and elected will endeavor to
accomplish that end and give the
state a clean, honest, economical,
business, republican administra
tion. No matter what may be the
result, I pledge my hearty support
to the ticket.

Costs Money to Break Game Laws.
The spirit of improvement jn
service exacted of our office-holders
ia something different from the old
partisan cry of "Turn the rascals
out," although related to it. The
spirit began as a reaction from the
shameless corruption that became
intrenched under the honest and
uncomprehending eyes of Grant,
and fouud little to disturb it until
G rover Cleveland's day. He is
the first politician since the war
around whose name gathered the
conception of civic honor. Mr.
Roosevelt a reformer from his
youth, has done much to give
momentum to the movement, and
he will doubtless do more in the
many years of vigorous existence
that probably lie before him.
Those speeches which are some
times Bmiled at for the emphasis
they give to the decalogue have a
wide and perhaps a deep effect on
the vogue which morality is en
joying. Men like Folk are the
second generation of this move
ment, which includes commerce as
well as politics, the Equitable as
well as boodling in Washington or
St. Louis, pure food legislation as
well as bribery or postal prosecu
tions. The outbreak of exposure
fi.. ,1
literature in ine magazines is a
symptom also, an effect which be
comes in turn a cause. Much has
been done, and much remains to
a 1 t
ao. au gucn improvements are
vague alike in their beginnings and
their ends, but perhaps the fairest
time to name as the beginning of
the present wave is the date when
Grover Cleveland defeated his
enormously popular opponent be
cause that magnetic Republican
was suspected of being not wholly
free ' from the money taint in
politics. Colliers.
That it costs money to violate the
Same hvws in Grant county is made
evident by the fact that the game
warden there has turned over to the
state treasurer the sum of f l.'40, the
amount of the fintu collet? ted for
brenkins the same laws. Comnient-
ing upon the figure the Prairie City

arrests during that time, of which
uumlx-r 2 were either found guilty
and fined or pleaded guilty; six more

Seven cases were dismissed and the
balance are still pending.
The aggregate amount of fine col
lected amounts to fl-'MO, which
money goes into the State Treasury.
The fines imposed were distribute
among the various offences as follows:

For killing deer out of season, or
running deer with dogs, $7.

George Kuahle, a one armed man
who has been driving stage on the
Prineville-Mitchell route for the past
six weeks, met with a serious acci
dent Tuesday which may result in
the loss of his right leg.
About 20 rods south of t he Taylor
home on the west branch of Hridge
creek one of the young horses hitched
to the stage became frightened and
jumped to one side. The tongue
broke and the coach was thrown
down the grade. Knnhle jumped
and struck on the rocks eight feet
below with such force that he sus
tained a compound fracture of the
right ankle. Professor Saunders,
who was the only passenger in the
coach, quieted the horses and assist
ed the injured man to the stage, and
then drove" into Mitchell , where
Kuable was given medical attention.
Prof. Saunders stated that .this doc
tors entertained little hope of saving j
J.C. Itutenic. the Klamath Falls
attorney, luis made a reputation as
a walker. He made a wager with
Chas. Wilson that he could walk ten
miles at the rate of four mile an
hour. The contest was arranged.
