The East Oregonian Is pleased to see the bar association of Umatilla county go on record in favor of two meritorious measures which are to be voted upon by the people next Mon day, to-wit: the bill adding two mem bers to the supreme court and revising the county court system of the state, and the bill appropriating money for the support and enlargement of the University of Oregon. Thesf two measures are especially .meritorious and should be passed by a large vote, but there are many other important measures on the of ficial ballot and the voters are urged to use every care in exercising their legislative power. In the selfish worcfare between the rival fishermen of the upper and low ei Columbia river, In which both fac t;ons are seeking to control the sal mon industry of the state, voters are urged to vote "no" on No. 319 and 333. On the law proposed by the liquor Interests by which they may secure control of city governments and set aside the criminal laws of the state, taxpayers are urged to vote "no." This law Is a most vicious attempt to wrest city governments from the pro tection of the state laws and voters are urgently requested to vote "no" cn No. 321. Keep your hands off the question of the division of Wasco county and the creation of Hood River county. Let each county settle Its own difficul ties and local Issues and vote "no" .on No. 337. The law making power delegated to the people of Oregon through the ini tiative and referendum amendment to the constitution Is not new and the people have made no mistakes through its use as yet, and the East Oregonian is willing to trust the people at all times. They will vote right and do right. So whatever the result of tha election next Monday, this paper will be satisfied. The result will be on expression of the will of the peopl9 and the people are the genuine law making power of the state. If you have any doubt as to the merit of .a bill, be on the safe side and vote "no." Better err on the side of safety. Better kill a good law than enact a bad one, every time. There are 13 measures on the bal lot and many voters will not go half way down the list. Many of the pro posed laws will receive but few votes, simply because the voters are not in terested and do not understand the merits of the laws. Beginning at the head of the list of laws on the ballot, voters are urg ed to vote "yes" for the following: Permitting state Institutions to be located away from the state capital, vote "yes" No. 302. For equal suffrage, No. 318, "yes." For the enactment of statement" No. 1. No. 326, "yes." To add two supreme Judges, and re vine county and probate court system, No 304, "yes." To change date of state elections to correspond with presidential elec tions, No. 306, "yes." In support of the national guard and for. the erection of armories throughout the state, No. 312, "yes." To appropriate money for University of Oregon, No. 314, "yes." To limit and make public all elec tion expenses of candidates, No. 330, "yes." Restricting the power of indict ments to grand Juries and taking that power from district attorneys, No. 334, "yes." There are a number of laws which should receive the disapproval of the voters and especially the taxpayers of the state and to these laws the East Oregonian also desires to call special attention. The following measures on the of ficial ballot are highly objectionable and should be voted down: An act requiring railroads to Issue free passes to officials. No. 311, vote "no.".. ... A WORD FOR THE WORKERS. The present postofflce regulations by which the poatofflces are opened at 8 o'clock In the morning and clos ed at 6 In the evening, work a hardship on laboring men who get their mall at the general delivery and the government should change the hours to accommodate these people. The laborer must go to work In the morning before the office opens and he cannot reach the office In the evening before It closes and so Is de nied one of the commonest privileges and enjoyments given to American citizens. It seems that two shifts should be worked at postoffices. The govern ment alms to accommodate the peo ple. The postlffice Is not a private business and Its regulations should not prevent one humble citizen his fullest rights and privileges. The government Is. paying out an enormous sum annually for the sup port of the poittoffices of the country, and It seems that every effort should be made to secure the better .results Catarrh, the Bane of the World Pe-ru-na, the Standard Remedy.

Both sides of the liquor question have been thoroughly threshed out in Umatilla county during the past month. Every phase of the issue has been brought out and every merit and demerit has been given great public ity. To many it would seem an Impossi- t ility that Umatilla county, a county ! which has had saloons since it was first organized, should go "dry," but to those who have observed the ten dency closely, it seems quite probable that the county will be as "dry" as a bone after election. The East Oregonian has given the matter some thought and Investiga tion and during the past week has been in touch with conservative men in every part of the county, and from the observations made. It Is safe to predict that the county will be car ried by the prohibitionists by a ma jority of from 250 to 400. This is only a guess, but It Is made after con siderable personal Investigation. Of course, men do hot always vote as they say they will, but the prohi bition si-ntiment Is wide spread, de termined and pronounced and is not confined to the regular temperance agitators. It is most noticeable among the substantial class of farmers and stockmen who are usually either non committal or against any Interference with the alleged "personal liberty" of drinkers. It Is almost certain that Pilot Rock precinct will go dry- Birch creek farmers are for prohibition almost to a man. Hermlston and a large part of the Echo precinct will be for pro hibition although that precinct may not carry as a whole. Helix will be dry by a large majority, it Is predict ed, and Adams is now conceded to be prohibitionist by saloonmen, them selves. Athena and Weston are strongly arrayed against the liquor business and every country precinct In the county Is agitated on the question. Pendleton is the stronghold of the saloon In the county and every effort Is being made In this city to save the county, but It is freely predicted by conservative men that the outside precincts will overwhelm Pendleton's wet vote.

Catarrh is recognized all over the civilized world as a formidable disease In the United States alone, two hundred thousand people have catarrh annually. In other countries the ratio or victims is as great For many years Pe-ru-na has held the foremost place as a standard remedy for catarrh. Persons objecting to liquid medicines can now pur chase Pe-ru-na tablets. for the people for this expenditure of their money. H. M. Cake will carry Umatilla county and he will be elected senator of Oregon by a handsome majority. Oregon Is a republican state and Is not going to "switch" Into the demo cratic rank now. Mr. Cake Is entitled to every republican vote in the state and Governor Chamberlain Is entitled to every democratic vote and that Is what the result will bo, it Is hoped. If you want an armory In Pendle ton, vote for the armory bill and give the militia boys the hearty support they deserve. Vote "yes" on No. 313. Remember the University of Ore gon and vote "yes" on No. 314, when you go Into the voting booth next Monday morning. After we settle It In Oregon, then the United States will engage In a real election contest. Everybody will be glad when It Is THE REASON WHY. The sentiment In favor of a local option law In this state Is not due so much to the fact that the people have it in for whiskey as to the fact that the retail liquor business has not been conducted with proper regard for the law. ; The public Is long suffering and slow to act. It witnesses and permits violation of some of the laws without protesf, and many people assume that it Isn't In favor of law enforcement. That almost always proves to be a mistake. The Indulgent public Is never satisfied with disregard of the law. In the west things are allowed to go "wide-open" because It's too much trouble to close them; but In due course of time the trouble will be taken, and probably a few extra licks will be struck In order to get even. In all probability had the laws of the state always been obeyed to the letter by saloon men there would not now be any demand for a local option law. Taklma Republic. . Filipino Midget) in Portland.
