The Pendleton K;it Oreoniaii showed a contPiriit:hle spirit in endeavoring to find excuses for its high school debating team's defeat at Euttrpiise l casting aspersions on the judes, whom, it pays, came from ' the rern-ses of Wallowi county," and were in favor of govern ment ovnerhli!i. Both statements aro falsehoods and the East Orego nian kn w,-ir ouj'.lit ti have known, the former was untrue, when it printi d it. All thru- judges are residents of Union county; none is a believer in fjovei miictit ownership; and iho one vote for 1'endUton was given y a yimtii'man w ho is a candida'e for oflice and in peeking the suffrages of Wallowa county voters. Those facts sneak eloquently of the im partiality of the judges, as well as of the decidul superiority of the Wallow ! County deleters The truth is, the local team made and cliu.'-hcd two points to one lv the Pendleton train. 'I he Pendleton team and I'sof. Landers showed a spt rtmanship md courage in defeat that should shime their home paper. They were gentlemen who fought, niiniiilly on t.!u ik side of the question, and acknowledged they were fairly and squanly beaten. The East Oregoriian it- as childish ami contemptible as was the Eugene audience when its team was beaten by Lebanon. Hotels. When Pausing On The Lewis tu, Road, Stop At The Sled Springs Hotel.

J. W. Kkiins, County Superintendent of Schools. With its b'i! debt and heavy tax burden, Union county has a dark outlook says the I.a Grande Star, and it adds that it is no wonder real estate firms are going out of business there. The contrast is bright here. The real estate men are making sales because a county out of debt and with a low tax levy is a mighty attractive proposition to settlers. With the best high tcho-d in Eastern Oregon, all paid . for, and liberal appropriations for good roads, the combination ifl a great booster. . Hut the prestnt county court will not get the praise-K de serves until misrepresentation of its work ceases to serve selfish aims. when it conies in. Shuv the debt onto the next generation. The county can borrow money at 6 per cent and we have to pay 10. Of course if we ever pay oat of djbt we w ill have to pay out with 10 per cent money. But that is neither here nor there. I have been readin' tbe San, and to my n ition Mr. Jonas knows abont how he county ought to bo run. He is an ilr pioneer of the county, havin' lived tuuvigst us nigh onto two or three years. He is also a t, ixpaver of ths county. For my part I would like to gee him and Jilr. Stabbi and Mr. Staid members of the board of county com missioners. Lit them run on th) plat form: "No taxes, a j schools, an.l agio tbe present rasheeni," and tluy can git the vot s of m.! and all of my boys. Youm for the good of the country, Uncle Silas.

BOSWELL ONE BLOCK SOUTH OF ' HOTEL ENTERPRISE PROPRIETORS- The Elgin Recorder paid l ist week: "Numerous editorials appear ing in some of the Wallowa county papers regarding their county affairs are disgusting in the extreme. Never a week pauses but what a fat, juicy lemon ir handed the county com t, and still the (Jounty is out of debt and the people have only a 11 m 11 tax to pay this year." A former Enterprise man now a resident of a boom town in Cali fornia writes: ''Send me a drink of good water and something to keep off the mosquitoes." A sample of our winter weather would add the finishing touch to that man's regret in leav.ng good old Wallowa.

Editor News Record: Mr. Jonas, in his piper, Tne Wallowa Sun, asks, "And now, Mr. Yoter, which would vou rather pay, a tax of 20 mills on a -3' valuation, or a tax of ll'j mills on a on a full valuation?" I would sooner pay the former. To make thi year's tax as low as it -ought to l and to even up with the limes when county warrants sold for 73 con's on the dollar, it ought to bo U of 20. or ti'3' mills. This is the way I cypher! it out: 3 mills for common school, 2 i mills fi-r tho state, and la' mills to pay I the county officers. This I guess we' have got to levy according to the slate law. We don't need auythiug for roads, bridges, courts, elections, or current expenses of the county. We don't need ' ant-thing for tlie high school. .1 am agir this higher education as they ca!i it.
