DISTRICT CONVENTION. Second Annual Meeting; Affair. Pleasant Mrs. Luper is now ready to serve fha ladi?a of Heppner and vicinity with all the latest things in Millinery. Pattern Hats re ceived each week from San Francis co. Come iu and inspect my stock. Prices are right, no troublt to show goods. There seems to be some misun derstanding as to the cause of taxes being a little higher this year than last. While the levy for the conn ty and state remains the same there ia a rUe of three mills in the school tax which is the cause of the slight raise on property in the Heppner district. Engberg & Montgomery, who se cured a larce tractiou encine for the J. L. Blalock ranch, a few miles weit of Arlington, which they are running, have discarded it and returned to horse power for their plowing. After a thorough test, they conclude the land in eastern Oregon has too many knolls and pitches for an engine. In Wallowa county eight candi dates for the office of sheriff have filed their petitions. For the of fice of county treasurer four can didates have thus far filed petitions, and lor county clerk but two can didates have filed petitions. So far the number of petitions filed have been evenly divided between Republicans and Democrats, The second annual district con vention, for district No 9, compris ing Morrow, Gilliam, Wheeler and Giant counties, Knights of Pyth- ias, was held in this city, at the ball rooms of Doric Lodge Mon day evening. Owing to the severe snow storm, many ot tne inrenaing visitors from interior lodges were unable to attei.d, however tne meeting was a pleasaut one and Pytbianism was well lepresentpd. The meeting was opened by a short talk by District Deputy Grand Chancellor W. W. Smead The address of welcome by Prof. D. V. 8. Reid was highly pleasing, and everyone present was made to feel the good w ill of Doric Lodge. A feature of the evening was the address by Grand Chancellor Marion F. Davis, of Union. Mr. Davis is a pleasant and forceful npeaker and is thoroughly acquaint ed with' every detail of the order that stands upon the solid founda tion of Friendship, Charity and Benevolence. Grand Cbancellor Davis' speech was followed by C. J. Bright of Wasco, and Judge W. IL Ellis, of Pendleton. After the work of tie evening, lunch wai lervel in the banquet ball. Salem, Or., March 12. Attorney-Gen eral Crawford fettled a much-mooted question oday when be rendered at opinion holding thit a voter who bas not alrea ly registered may qualify fo' v ting at the primaries on primary da b signing blank "A" provided for it the diiect primary 1 .w. uinnions na'e widely dittered upon this r ubj ct, and there ha been much discussion of it, for the reason that thert will be m ny voters who will fail t register and who will demand the right to vots on primary day. The prevailing op nion h as been that an unregistered pert on coul 1 n t register at the poll and vole, f r section 15 of the direct primary law says that "no person who ia not a qualifi d elector and a registered member of his paity making its nomina tions under the provisions of this law snail De quaunea to l in in Hgnu g an petition for nomination or to vo e at sail primary nominating election." Attorney-General Crawford siys ii Ih s were all the law con ained uj.on this subject, ths intention would be plain that unless registered the party could not vote. He looks further, bow- ever, and finds that in sections 1 and 8 of the primary law there are provisions which make the Australian ballot lan applicable, an i sec. ion 2875 of the code is express'y made applicable to primary nrminating elections. This last-mentioned section provider for any elector who is not registered in the precinct in which he applies to vote to use blank "A," and v te if otherwise qualified. Section 33 of the direct primary law says that "nothing con lained in this law sha'1 b construed to deprive any elector of the right to reuis'er and vote at any primary nomi nating eh clioa tequi'ed by this law oi his complying with the special provi sions of this law in he same manner 'hat lie ia prmitted by the general laws to register and vo te fit a general election." Construing the law as a whole, the Attorney-General finds that the elector may qualifiy by using blank "A" on election day, and hence that County Clerks shou'd send out b'anks with the ballot-boxes and po'lbook. That the 0. R. & N. Co. will have it- extension completed to the Wallow bridge by July is n iw almost an assured fact.
