collection of as fine amateur, prints
as has ever been seen here. They
were all taken from negatives owned
by local camera enthusiasts, many of
them belonging to E. D. Weaver, who
has gained the reputation of being an
artist in amateur work. The prints
were made by J. B. Burrell, who will
hereafter have charge of the printing
and developing work of the Pendleton

fy strongly to his ability. The drug
company now has on the road here

necessary.
The general sentiment is in favor of
the bill, according to Deputy District
Attorney Steiwer, although there is
seme opposition in small counties due
to the fact that it will be a more ex
pensive system to them than the
present. Another argument used
against it, is the fact that the salary
paid in small counties will not be suf
ficient to make the office desirable to
an able attorney who, by accepting
it, would be barred from accepting
certain very remunerative cases.
"The only effect of such a law in
Umatilla county," said Steiwer this j
morning." would be to make the of- j
fice a little less desirable for while !
the salary is reduced a third, consld-
