Notes From The 3 Political Field 3" le cir choice for assessor. vv take this method of expressing our wishes, and introducing our choice, as Mr, Allen Is in nehool and will be until tbe last of March." ' i Measures Voters ' Will Pass Upon Prospective candidates for county coramissfner bad not passed tbe "mentioned" post by Tuesday noon. D. W.' Bheahan, Wallowa county's andldaU for circuit judge, received naity aswjran?s of strong support in Uriiou county while he was ont there attending to legal busineM recently. Mr. Kheahan Is well acquainted In I Union, especially at Cove aud Union, tie bavfng studied law at tbe latter place. ' T. F. Lathrope of Leap has resided In Wallowa county, for 27 years and lie surely ought to know, the county If anyone does. That Is an Invaluable . requisite In an assessor, for which office "Tom" aspires via the Republican rout. lie. baa followed the occupa tions of saw mill man and bridge builder and consequently knows and Is known by nearly everybody. He Is a square man personally and his many friends declare he would do the square thing If elected assessor. Claude Boatman when asked the other day the chestnut inquiry "iiow're your running?", replied be was too busy to think of 11. And that is just bout right, and is one reason be is so popular with everybody. - He goes along, tending to business, and wait ing on people at tbe clerk's office with out ever an effort to boost bis candi dacy. , '. Judge Ramsey's platform should be read by every voter. There la every rrasoit for a judicial candidate to state fairly and plainly bis stand on matters of grave public concern connected with tbe office to which be aspires. One of the just critlolsma leveled at courts today is delay, costly to litigants and to taxpayers alike, and too often re sulting In a miscarriage of justice. William T. Bell, one of tbe best known men In V.allowa county, ha MMtiMrf his candidacy for tbe Ite- uublloan nomination for county treas urer.

Allen, principal of tbe Flora schools and Republican candidate for assessor, while In Enterprise last week taking the teachers examination, left at the olerk's office the orginal of an endorsement of himself personally and of bis candidaoy, that is at once unique and strong. It is signed by 102 rest dents ot the North Country, and reads as follows: "The North Country, Jan. 10, 1008, "To whom it may concern: This is to certify that we the undersigned citizens' feel that tbe North Country Is entitled to one or mora of tbe elective! officers to be elected in June,4908. "Also that we are personally ac quainted with C. H. Allen, know bith to be strictly moral, fair-minded, qualified and worthy of the confidence of tbe citizens of tbe county In addition to the names of the candidate-, for the various offices, Oregon voters will be confronted by 19 initiative or refeiendum propositions on the ballot at thej June election. The plutocratic Washington (D. C.) l'oet is sneer ing at the plan to submit these proposed laws, review b of the act of the legislature and constitu tional amendments to the people of Oregon, who it says are not intelligent enough to pass on them. This is the view also adopted by the Portland Oregoninn and Pen dleton Tribune. ' Those papers profess to believe in the supreme wisiioun and incorruptibility of politicians who boss legislatures! To give the lie to the hired tools of the enemies of Oregon, every voter should inform himself to the utmost on these 19 measures, wh en briefly stated are as follows: ; Submitted By the Legislature. Amendment increasing compen sation of members of the legisla ture to $400 for a regular session and $10 a day for special sessions.

Washington, Feb. 17 At one stroke of the Lieutenant Goveruor's pen, 150,000,000 acres of forest land In British Columbia have been placed in reserves. This includes every acre of the province's timberlands, except what lias been leased. This is as much land as was put in the National Forests of this country between the years IK91 ami 1907. Tbe action wan taken to check waste ful exploitation of timber resources and to bring the care uud cutting of timber more effectually under govern ment control. ' The province has been leasing llm berland instead of selling it. Tile most of the leasing has been' done tbe past three or four years, aud Americans bold the largest part ot tbe 10,000 leases now in force. The lease is, hi its effect, a long-term option at low rate. It runs 21 years and, may. k renewed at the end of the first term. The lessee pays 25 cents a year until he is ready to cut the timber, wheit he pays a royalty of 60 cents per 1000 feet, board measure, for the timber re moved. 1 The income of tbe province from leases was about $1,275,000 last year. .
