light-weight paper for the ballots for
Clackamas county to be used at the polls
next Monday According to the en
acted statutes of Oregon, four white bal
lots, and four colored sample ballots
are required to be printed for each vo
ter, many more than are necessary, and
the taxpayer has to foot the bill. There
are more names than usual on the bal
lot this year with a full complement of
state and district officers and four tick
ets in the field. Consequently, it takes
a whole lot more paper than usual, and
more printed matter. In California

ballot is printed for each voter.

Cantata was a beautiful representation
of Oriental life, 'nd the costutuesiand

history of the Jewish kings. The eleven
scenes were a revelation of panoramic
