Tho county court, will according
to all present Indications, soon be the
center of a hot fight around which
will revolvo several canaldatcs for
stock Inspector In this county, and as
large n crowd of lntorestod partisans
of tho various candidates as can bo
gotten into tho contest.
The Isttuo will be made by the fll
lng of potitlons for tho appointment
of nn immediate successor to the
present Incumbent, J. E. Bean, who
has fillod the office almost four
years. Mr. Dean s removal is favor
ed for tho following alleged reasons;
Objections to Mr. Bean.
First "He does not know scab
when he sees It.'
Second "He many times ignores
his duty and will do nothing when
confronted with the evidence that
scab exists."
Third "He has been known to
Ibsuo certificates of health by re
quest merely, without nttcmptlug to
inform himself of the real condition
of tho flocks, but taking the word or
request of sheepowners whose flocks
may not have been nctually infected
at tho time said certificates were
made out."
There may be other alleged reasons
for tho removal of Mr. Bean, but the
nbovo Incorporate nil the reasons that
might be supposed to have consider
able weight If backed with evidence
air. Bean, when Interviewed this
morning by an EaBt Oregonlau rep
resentative, added his own individual
reason to the nbovo enumeration.
wns briefly: "Other men are after
the Job." Further than this. M
Ilean would not talk, simply claiming
in general terms t.iat there Is no le
gitimate animus In the clamor for hi
removal, and that he did not propose
to crpss linages before he came to
them. When tho "fight" conies he

Numerous Candidates.
The candidates thus iar for the in

HORSE THIEF GETS BUSY,
Sheriff Painter Pursuing a Suspected
Man Over Blue Mountains.
Walla Walla, Wash., July 28. Tho
sheriff's office is puzzled over tho dis
appearance of a horse, tho property
of W. G. Whitney, and a saddle and
bridle belonging to Thomas Cullan.
Whitney nnd Cullnn reside noar the
state Hue.
The hors,e, which is a valuable driv
ing animal, was taken from Whitney's
pasture a few nights ago. Cullan's
saddle and bridle disappeared at the
same time. "Cooncy" White and an
other man, upon whom suspicion r.ests
have not been seen since tho night tho
horse was taken. A man answering
tho description of White's companion,
passed tho Weston Mountain toll gate
the next day. He was riding a horse,
thought to be the Whitney animal.
Sheriff Charles S. Painter, armed
with n John Doo warrant has gone to
Elgin on a hunt for tho horse and thp
persons who took it.
Mr. Whitney has offered a reward of
$25 for tho recovery of the horse or
conviction or tho person who stole It,
