COUNTY POLITICS
The primaries some six months
away and considerable talk about
the various political offices seem to
indicate that there will be more than
the usual interest in the election for
the year 1916.
Two very important factors enter
into the coming campaign. One is
the matter of the division of Crook
county.
Should the county be divided at
the November election next year,
what will at that time perhaps be
seventy percent of the total vote of
the present county will be in the
territory that will betaken to make
the new county.
In other words, the balance of
power in the coming election will
rest largely with a people that may
not be residents of the county after
election.
According to this law, these peo
ple will have a voice in these mat
ters, although they be cut off from
the old county at the same election.
The second factor referred to
above, is that the large percentage
of the votes for the entire county
will be made up of new people that
will become residents of the Bend
. district between this date and the
date of the November election.
These people will perhaps pay more
attention to party politics than the
ordinary voter who has been a resi
dent for a longer period of time,
and this may be felt in the result
at this election.
Whatever else may be said, the
fact that there is so much talk at
this time about the various offices
to be filled would seem to indicate ;
that the campaign will start early
and be a lively one.
AMERICAN TENDENCIES
Professor Oopor, who by the
way has been blind since childhod,
has been delivering a series of lec
tures in this city concerning the
growing tondenccy in America
and other countries which have
reached the higher state of civiliza
tion, asserts that the average Ameri
can has his mind developed to great
er degree than the body, and points
to the dangers that naturally ac
company such conditions.
He advises more outdoor excer
cises for the school children, and
says that physical culture of the
right kind is of the greatest importance.
j While this condition applies most
particularly in the cities, no doubt
the small towns and country schools
j as well should heed the advice of
this, and other able thinkers in this
i
matter.
ing the Columbia River, and we will
clear the whole tract this coming
year, using unemployed men for the
work. Our plan thus not only pro
vides a home for h jmeless boys, but
it gives work to workless men in
addition to bringing under cultiva
tion a large area of dormant land.
Judge Cleeton of the Juvenile
court is active in the nutter in Port
land, and county judges all over the
state are being requested to assist
in the sale of the bonds. Investors
are taking them up readily as they
combine ral charity with sound
business. The treasurer of the home
is C. B. Woodworth of Ladd &
Tilton rank of Portland, and we
will be pleased to receive payment
for bonds and issue them to investors.

Ask Judge Springer About Th.'s
To the Editor: You have probably
noticed among the recent incorpora-
I of the Junior Agricultural college
and Trade School. That body was
organized to provide a real home for
the orphans and homeless boys from
all parts of Oregon, and to so train
them that they will become useful
citizens. The school is endorsed by
the most responsible people in Port
land, all agreeing that such an in
stitution is urgently needed.
One feature of our plan is unique.
We are not asking for one dollar of
charity money, and the directors and
the management are giving their
services absolutely free. We are rais
ing the necessary money just as a
railroad does when it sets out to
build a new line. We are issuing ten
dollar bonds for the money, these
bonds being fully secured by real
estate, running for ten years and j
bearing cumulative ineterest at the '
rate of fivejper cent a year. J
We have arranged to buy 1000 1
