DVLLAS, OREGON. March 30,1906
The way to build up Dallas ts to pat
ronize Dallas people.
The death of Mayor Charles Grissen,
has caused profound sorrow through
out the valley. He worked unceas
ingly for the development of Oregon,
and was pver found In the forefront
of every movement having for its
object the upbuilding of his town,
county and state. Into this work, he
entered with all bis heart and soul.
The Oregon Fire Belief Association,
the strongest mutual insurance com
pany on the Pacific Coast, if not in
the entire West, is a child of his
brain. He was a poet, scholar and
musician, and as a public speaker he
had few equals In the state. In his
death, Oregon has lost one of its most
valuable citizens.
?all$ City note$
Little interest is taken in the ap
proaching city election, and a light
vote is anticipated. The proposition
to assume an indebtedness of $3000 for
a rock-crusher is not looked upon
with favor, aDd it is the general
opinion that the movement will re
ceive small support. For councilmen,
U. S. Grant in the second ward and
J. E. Sibley in the third ward will
have no opponents on the ticket. Only
in the first ward will there be any con
test, where J. G. VanOrsdel and J. C.
Uglow are the opposing candidates.
The registration books will be closed
for the primary election on Tuesday,
April 10, at 5 o'clock p. m. Voters
who have failed to register should do
so at once. It will only require a few
minutes time, and will save much
worry and annoyance on election day.
As the Oregonian aptly remarks:
"When there Is plenty of time in
which to register, a voter has no right
to bother his neighbors on election
day with a request that they sign his
qualification blank." -

When tho Democratic papers of
Oregon want to say something good
about a candidate of their party now
adays, they refer to him as a "Joe

"Joe Folks" will be called, but few

Mr. Oeer boasts of the big vote he
received for Senator four years ago.
He won't do so well this year. The
Domocrats can't vote for him in the
nominating election. They voted for
him four years ago, just to have fun
with the llepublicans.

Big Sale Continues.
Ellis & Keyt's big sale continues
with Increasing crowds each day. A
free excursion train from Falls City
brought nearly 100 customers Tues
day, and a like excursion from Iude
pendence and Monmouth added 150
buyers to the throng on Wednesday!
Today an excursion will bo run from
Airlie. If any person thought the
people of folk county were "broke,"
this sale has certainly banished such
an impression from his mind. Thirty
clerks have been kept on the jump for
a week, and it is a slow day when the
cash sales fall below $1000. At one

CURTIS L. HAWLEY, for Representative
I hereby announce myself a candidate for the Republican nomination
for the office of Representative from Polk County," subject to the will of the
voters at the Direct Primary election to be held on Friday, April 20:
If I ain nominated and elected. I shall consider the vote of the Republicans
of Polk County for United States Senator as a recommendation which I shall
sacredly regard, unless conditions should arise before the next session of the
Legislature that would cause them to express their choice for some other
candidate.
Knowing and feeling deeply that tho prosperity of the Nation depends
upon the prosperity of the agricultural and laboring interests, I would urge
such legislation as would look to the welfare of the toilers of the farms, mills
and factories.
No ambitions to serve for myself or any individual, but only to serve the
taxpayers and citizens of Tolk County and the State of Oregon.
Bosses to the rear, and no dictation but the people's interests.
I favor and will support such legislation as will compel 'railroad com
panies to furnish cars within a reasonable length of time for all transportation
offered.
Believing that much of tho money now spent in maintaining four Normal
Schools in Oregon could bo used to a much better advantage in extending the
scope of usefulness of our public schools, I favor the maintenance of but one
good Normal School In the state.
State banking law.
Taxation of franchises; state coutrol and regulation of insurance
companies.
Anti-pass law with reduction in railroad fares.
A square deal for every man.
I am 37 years of age; was born aud raised in Polk County; educated at
Bethel, with the exception of two years spent in college; occupation, farmer
and sheep man. All my property interests are in Polk County.
