No official in Oregon ever had a
cleaner official record than has Jim
Ross. He has ahvavs conducted the
Sheriff's office properly,- therefore
has made us a good official and is
entitled to every Itepuhlican vote in
the county at the election next
Monday.
We do not feel that it is necessary
to ask the voters of Lincoln county
to vote for Ira Wade for County
Clerk. For six years he has filled
that position and during all this
time not one word of criticism has
ever loen uttered against his official
record. Under his administration
the office has hecome a large source
of revenue to the county instead of!
an exjiense. Courteous and impar
tial, to nil, his ' office open at any
hour of the night to . accommodate
the pnblic, n mhn 'of integrity and
ability," he should and will receive
the vote of every man in the county
next Monday.
The Oregon Rural Letter Carriers'
Association will hold their conven- j
tion at Albany Friday, the 29th. '
Secretary-Treasurer John II. Coins ;
of the Association is a resident of
Albany, an 1 in connection with
Bury I. Dasont, secretary of the Al
biny Commercial Club, is arrang
ing an intensely interesting pro
gram. The motto and banner of
the Rural Letter Carriers is "Stand
for better roads and a greater Ore-
gon."" President John II. Scott of j
the Oregon Good Roads Association,
President Camlwll of the University
of Oregon and other distinguished
speakers will le present.
One of the nios'o important ques
tions to lie voted on next Monday
is that. f a' county High School. 1
Every voter who is interested in
schools in this county, and it is ,
h pcd every voter is, should vote for j
the measure. What is the sense of
sending our boys and girls out of
the county to take the high school
studies, or of paying tuition for
them to go tp a district high school?
The expense to the taxpayers of
maintaining a county high school
will 1)0 Binall considering the bene-1
fits to be derived frohi having such
an institution. The most prosper-;
us counties and communities are '
Umbo having, good schools. Let's!
h'lp better our school condition in
''lis cour.ty by having a county;
high school. Put a cross after 53
.n your ballot next Monday. i

ir.mi Newport in which the writer j
attempts to give local option a black I

f blind pigs that the people of the
c'luntynre becoming sj disgusted'
th it they will vote against local op-;
tion, next Monday; that Newport'
li iu r dealers have obeyed the . law i
well since the county went dry two
years ago. When he wrote the
article there had leen two arrests
in Toledo for the violation of the I
local option law, and five at New-'
port, all plead guilty. Were they
pulled because they were obeying
the law? Yes? No? Will the '
gentleman ever accomplish much'
good for his own town by trying to 1
injure his neighboring town? We
know the citizens of Newport do
not approve of such a sentiment.

About the Commissioners.
Mr. Editor: In the recent issue
of your paper in the editorial, mat
rimonial, memorial or some other
column, there appeared an article
from the pen of our worthy brother
of the south end of the county in
which he attempted to justify him
self for the position he is taking
relative to the office of County Com
missioner,' for which he is a candi
date. One would infer from the
trend of his argument that he is
thoroughly convinced that the Al
mighty has, or at least attempted
to, bring about a political disaster
upon our county by causing that
great downpour which necessarily
detained about 400 Republicans at
home, who, according to his belief,
would have unanimously voted for
him. We have long held that
people were largely governed by
climatic conditions, but not to such
an extent as that.
The brother need not take his
defeat at the primary so much to
heart. These things occur at every
election, but it is an uncommon
thing for a man to suffer himself to
have the second dose administered
to him within less than two months'
time.
There are others of us who fully
realize his feelings upon receiving
the official announcement of his
defeat, and how he retires to his
quiet repose dreaming that the
world had suddenly ceased its rota
tion and everything was sent flying
belter skelter through space because
of the great shock brought about by
that final announcement. And
again we see him aa he awakes from '
his restless dreams, springing to the
floor, grasping a bed-post or a door
knob in order that lie might not be
hurled into eternity because of the
recent disappearance of the laws of
gravitation. ' And as his reasoning
faculties begin to return we see him
working his way slowly from post
to knob and ' from knob to chair
until at last he stands before the
huge mirror, which ordinarily is
tall enough to reproduce an image
of his entire person, but now owing
to the recent elongation of the face
there is to le seen but a narrow
strip across the eyes, and it requires
much surveying by the hands and
pursuasion by the good wife before
he is fully convinced that there is
yet two ends to that once smiling
face. How amazed he must have
been upon reaching the open : air.
There in the heavens above him was
the same sun illuminating the earth.
Th.e same gentle breeze fanned his
fevered brow. The same cow-bell
tinkled in the distant pasture. In
fact there seemed to be a sameness
of all the surroundings as on pre
vious occasions. While he stands
meditating and pondering over the
singularity of the situation a sound
comes to him. He bends forward
with his hand to his ear and a
moment later rushes into the house
exclaiming, "The county, will yet
be saved; 4 Democrats of the 300
registered have voted for me, and
as it is office I am after, I will
accept on any ticket . "
Now, if Mr. Keady wishes to be
a Democrat why does he not resign
the office of Secretary of the Re
publican County Central Committee
and take an honorable stand some
place? Since the Republicans have
not come up to his .expectations,
and I am much of the opinion that
the Democrats will do likewise, it
appears to me that it would be very j
appropriate and acceptable if three i
or four Socialists in some precinct J

would unite and give him their
solid vote for Constable or some
other office of like magnitude.
Had Mr. Keady received the
nomination he would have expected
every Republican in the county to
support him at the general election.
Mr. Kentta asked for the nomi
nation and pursued an honorable
course in securing the, same and
under the present primary system
it is the duty of every Republican
in the county to support him. Mr.
Keady promised his loyal support
to the successful candidate, and since
in this case he has proven" himself
to be unreliable what inducements
has he to offer in order to secure a
single vote at the coming election,
unless it be his own, which, under
our free American government, is
sacred to himself to be placed where
the greatest good will be obtained.
I have known Mr. Keady for the
past thirteen years and have always
found him to be a very pleasant
gentleman, but in this one instance
he is surely committing a great
error, and since he had not the
foresight nor will power to correct
himself while there was yet an op
portunity, I trust that the voters of
this county will do so by giving Mr.
Kentta their undivided support next
Monday. . R. H. Howell.
