On January 3 registration for tho
coming primary convention!) and state
election will begin In accordance with
the new direct primary law. In this
olty the bookB will be In the office of
the county clerk oh In the past, while
In the remainder of the county the
hook will be with the Justices of the
peace.
Since the county clerk and liU reg
ular deputies will be busy with the
tax roll during the next few months,
a Hpeclul registration clerk Is neces
sary. Clark NnlKon, of Weston, has
been appointed to this position and
will enter upon his duties when the
books are opened.
After the opening of the books on
January 2. registration will continue
Pendleton Clerk Most UaderMiuul
Considerable of the Indlaa Trnxruc
In Order to Trade.
Perhaps 50 clerks in Pendleton
know a smattering of the Cayuse
Umatllla language, which they have
acquired through trading constantly
with the Indiana The most common
Indian words used in the stores are
tho numerals, the Indians knowing the
names of most of the articles, but are
not always certain of the number or
prices and so a knowledge of the Indi
an numerals Is almost necessary to
successful trading with Indian cus
tomers. Following are the Cuyuse numerals
to 20, which are known to almost
every business man and clerk In the
city, and which go a long way In
making the annual exchange of S200,
000 In Indian money for Pendleton
merchandise:
Noxt, one.
La-peel, two.
Me-taunt, three.
Pe-lept, four. ;
Pah-kt, five.
tVe-loxt, six.
We-napt, seven.
We-multut, eight.
QucctK, nine.
ru-tlmpt, ten. :
Above 10 and under 20, the numer
als are miide by saying "10 and one,"
"10 and two" nnd so on, as follows:
Pu-tlmpt wah (one) noxt, II; pu
timpt wah lu-peet, 12; pu-tlmpt wah

are being held. On April 25 the books
will again be opened and will remain
so until May 15, when they will be
closed for the general election. There
will bo but one set of registration
books, und when a voter registers It
suffices for both the primary and
election.
Since the adoption of the direct
primary law completely changed the
nominating system in Oregon, there
are naturally many thlngse about the
new law to be learned. In this the
work Is made more complicated
through the law Itself being framed In
such a manner as to make Its provis
ions rather difficult to understand.
However, the following abstract of the
law, which has been prepared by the
secretary of state and attorney gen
eral, gives its provisions in a concise
form:

C. W. Heale, oxpressman, living at
tho corner of W. Tuntln and Aura
streets. Pendleton, Ore., says: "1 have
been troubled for tho last four years
with a difficulty arising from the
kidneys, caused. I think, by heavy
lifting, which my occupation required.
When I stooped, lifted and when
straightening up my back would hurt
severely. Tho kidney secretions were
Irregular, contained a reddish sedl
tnent and annoyed me greatly at night
when I would have to get up several
times. I docldod to try Donn's Kid
nev Pills which I learned about at
hat time, antl procured a box at
Brock A MeComas Co.'s drug store.
The relief was oulck and certain, and
now afUr the lapse of nearly three
years my conllnuod freedom from the
old trouble gives me the highest con
fidence In Dean's Kidney Pills. Such
benefit ns I received can only bo ap

BABY'S ECZEMA
Top of Head Covered with

Taking Hair with Them.
CURED BYCUTICURA
Row Six Years Old with Thick
Hair and Clean Scalp.
Cure Permanent.
" My baby was six weeks old when
the top of her head become covered
with thick scales, which would peel
and come off, taking the hair with it.
It would soon form again and be as bad
as before. My doctor said it was
Eczema, and prescribed an ointment,
which did no good, I then tried Cuti
ctira Soap and Ointment. I washed
her bead in warm water and Cuticura
Soap nnd gently combed the scales
off. They did not come back sad her
hair grew out fine and thick. She is
now a year and a half old, and has no
trace of Eczema,'!
MRS. C. W. BURGES, Iranistan
Ave., Bridgeport, Conn., Feb. ai, 1898.
CURE PERMANENT
' Mrs. Bnrges writes Feb. 28, 1903 :
" My baby, who bad Eczema very
badly on her head, as I told you before,
after using the Cuticura Remedies was
enred. She is now six years old, and
bas thick hair and a clean scalp."
Instant relief and refreshing sleep
for skin-tortured babies and rest for
tired, worried mothers in warm baths
with Cuticura Soap, and gentle anoint
ings with Cuticura Ointment, purest of
emollients and greatest of skin cures.
This is the purest, sweetest, most
apeedy, permanent, and economical
treatment for torturing, disfiguring,
itching, burning, bleeding, scaly,

humours, with loss of bair, of infants

sure to succeed when all other reme
dies and the best physicians fail.
