Metolius-Prineville &
Eastern People Here
Messrs. Scheel and Engineer Von
riant of the Metolius-Prineville &
Eastern arrived in Frineville the
last of the week to help the local
committee finish up railroad mat
ters. Mr. Scheel with the right-of-way
and Mr. Von Flanta with the
terminals.
In conversation with Contractor
Scheel yesterday morning he stated
that work would begin just as soon
as the right-of-way was settled.
He said that there were many diffi
culties arising to hamper the work
of the local committee, but now
everything looked good for a speedy
settlement.
Mr. Scheel stated that the condi
tion of the bond market in no way
affected the building of the
Metolius-Prineville & Eastern. 'If
we have to," said Mr. Scheel, "my
self and associates can go down into
our jeans and dig up enough to put
the road through. However, if we
can float some bonds to advantage
we may do so, but that is a ques
tion to be taken up later. At pres
ent the main thing is to get to
work and settle the right-of-way.
When that is done you will see
'something that looks like a railroad
within six months."
The railroad committee is ex
pected home tonight or tomorrow
from Metolius with some definite
information as to how soon dirt will
fly.

The girls of the Normal depart
ment are developing the Sloan
method and making Sloan seat
work for the primary grades.
The Domestic Science classes are
studying food values and making
recipe books, and next week they
will begin work in the experiment
kitchen. This is one of the most
popular departments in the high
school and the girls feel especially
privileged in having as their in
structor in this most important of
arts a woman of Mrs. Walker's
broad knowledge and experience, J
The boys of the advanced Manual
Training class have just completed
study tables for the Normal depart
ment. They are neatly and ac
curately made and are a credit to

ine Business department is

White Butte Didn't Get
a Chance to Vote
Paulina, Or., Nov. 9, 13.
Crook County Journal:
There were some thirty or more
voters gathered at the White Butte
voting precinct on November 4,
and no ballot boxes so we could
vote, and it was impossible to get
them in the specified voting hours.
This is not the first time we have
had trouble getting the poll books
At the primary election ol 1912 a
messenger was sent to Paulina the
evening before election and was just
in time to get them. Also, on Nov.
4, 1912, Walt Dunkle had to go to
Paulina in the night to get the bal
lot boxes off the stage so we would
have them the next morning.
The people of 'White Butte pre
cinct, and myself as one of the
cierks of election, would like to
know through the columns of your
paper, if it is not the duty of the
sheriff to see that the ballot boxes
are delivered to one of the judges
in time for election, and not sent by
the stage and depend on every Tom,
Dick and Harry to get them there.
Hoping you will explain fully,
Orrin C. Mills,
Paulina, Ore.
The sheriff is given ten days be
fore an election in which to deliver
the supplies to the different pre
cincts. It frequently happens, how
ever, that the state officials are late
in notifying the county clerk of
what goes on the state ticket and
this in turn delays printing and
delivery to the sheriff. At the elec-
will fit you around the neck. Call and examine
my $1 5.00 suits.

Cut Out the Booze
at Rabbit Drives
A note of warning is sounded
from Lamonta on account of the
practice of a few individuals that
bring liquor to the rabbit drives.
This is something that the people
will not tolerate. There is too
much at stake. A man more or
less under the influence of whiskey
is liable to stumble and fall and if
his gun is cocked some of the
women or children may get hurt.
There have been no accidents so far
and to avoid every possibility of
having one the man with the bottle
must not go to these drives. Every
body else will be made welcome
and their presence will be ap
preciated. The Home Restaurant
