White - And the best thingfor the whole people i The best thing for the members of the warring factions themselves; for they woujd share the losses and buries that would attend, the carrying on of the strife that would follow the nomination of either MrHall or Mr. Olcott. and neither ' bl the other candidates has a ghost of a show for nomination. . I The nomination of. Mr. White would Jbring harmony. It . woulresult in sure victory in November. It would guar atttee?the lopping of f of a million dollars annually from the Ttate's expenses, fit would mean the adoption of the Illinois J "departmental system, giving more efficient state government -. at less cost; It would bring about a reduction of taxes all down the'line. s Mr. White is so pledged and he would so perform.

FROM A WOMAN VOTER Editor Statesman: At a recelt women's meeting a speaker urged those present to tear in mind to teach and to preach the following truth: '."A Just government is for the benefit of the government; our -present state and local govern ments have largely become gov ernments for the benefit ot the governors from the highest of fice in the gift, of the state to the lowest office tn the gift of the town or community." In general, he illustrated by reference to officers in office who had voted to increase their own salaries and perquisites of office; to boards and commissions that had stood for controlling Interests instead Of for theeoplewho bad elected them; 'to legislators who "worked, the state" for all that they could get for themselves and for their political friends, and for members of their own families; to all the governing class which had demonstrated that self-inter est, or political interest or fac tional Interest was in control of their official conduct, and not at all the interests of the long-suffering tax-paying people. Those present were much im- wfll give Oregon the Illinois sys tem' of departmental government, tinder which expenses will be de creased "while. efficiency will -be increased, and the taxes lowered all down the line.

On.hia Vback was strapped a water bag. ..There was no human In sight. UjOnlj the buslneas-like dog seemed .to have the whole'ot the Amerl" rcaii desert to himself. . Saddenlr he . stopped pricked LI. AJ .Mil .4 - J forward again "with a " quickened pac. :; Up f a ; ridge i he went and dowii on the other aide. A man layf stretched out, its hat. oyer -- hit face. The . dog stopped and barked sharply. The i rnait rolled over and raised his -bloodshot eyes. Then he saw the 'water i bag on the dog, nd in a vmiBute the water was cooling his parched lips.-He bad been going .acrqss this corner -of the desert r?wheu bis Jaorse had thrown him Aand run away.. He had given up ,,hope of getting, out. especially as his ankle was badly wreached. , ? The dog started Off again, but ' f'helooked at tb man In a way T which! said Tery plainly, "I'm i coming back. And back he came, brtnglng with him his master, ;Owhd had made a camp not far .away.r Ills master was making guide posts in the desert for the benefit of those who bad to make the trip across a waste In, which it was so easy to be lost, and the dog was'hls Vise and faithful as sistant. ..And even wbethe.day came that he was retired, the old dog would go wandering out into the desert by himself, unable to stay away from his job. - - Such faithfulness and intelli gence is common to the . dog known as the Airedale. An Aire dale is an all around dog. He will drive sheep or cattle,- will drag, a sled, will tend the baby, and will hunt anything. He is kind, obedient, trustworthy, . He is a game dog in a scrap, but he never lookjs for trouble. He is seldom sick and gets along In any climate. . The Airedale is named ater the Aire river in Yorkshire, wLere he was first raised about the middle of the 19th' century. He is certainly not a pretty dog With him it is "handsome Is as handsome does. f ? A good ; Airedale weighs about 45 pounds. He has a long head. flat, broad skull, smooth cheeks. and strong muscle with tight lips over big, white teeth. His eyes are small, dark, and full of life. 4- DAILY PICTURE PUZZLE , , '. V.

The outer coat, in color a deep rich tan with a saddle of black or Iron gray, is of wiry, hair, stiff and hard iandl about an inch long. Under this Is a vest of soft, wooly hair.

I'm tired of being scolded and fussed at like"; a baby." - - . i Uncle Fred looked at him and smiled.. "Tbis isn't the first time that you've been .running away, is It?" "Well, no, said Harry sullenly, 'bnt I mena it this time. - You'll see. Honest, it's so dull. Dad promised me a long time ago 4ed let me help in the store on Satur days and make some extra money, bufhe keeps putting me off." Listen here, Harry.' said his uncle, "if you really want to run, I'll be willing to pay you for it, What?" Harry gasped. Iti all right to run-it yon ran In the right direction. Now, if you will run for two weeks 111 give you that camera you were talking about. By running 1 mean running the washing ma chine for your mother on Mon days, running errands willingly. and running the lawn mower. Such running ought to keep you pretty busy. How about it?' Harry said nothing. Then he grinned shamefacedly. '"'."All right," he said, his mind on the longed-Cor camera, "I'll try it. And I'll play square about it, Uncle Fred. Honest to. good ness." Sa Harry started "running away." And he ran w4th such earnestness that he was almost Jrun down when the two weeks were up and he Stopped at his uncle's house to make a report "I just ran in," he laughed, "to tell you about this running away business. It worked great, al though the family's kind of sur prised about it. They look at me as though I must me sick or nut ty, getting a sudden : working spurt. Anyway, they've been treating me mighty decent late ly." 'You win the camera, alright," said Uncle Harry. ! ' "I'm tickled to death 'to gef it, said Harry. "I haveh't really earned it, just doing what I ought to do anyway, but it is sure dandy of you to get it for me. "But , what I really mean to tell yony added Harry happily.
