Flake, the new publisher of the Item ize!", a change will be made Id the time of publication of each paper. After July 1, the Itemizer will be I J T".l 1 . . .1 the Oksp.bveb on Friday afternoon. Thia change will fflve the readers of the two papers a much better news service than at present, as it will virtually furnish them a 7-coluam, all-home-print semi-weekly. The new arrangement will also benefit the ad- vertlHers of both papers. With the existing excellent train service and numerous rural mail routes, each paper will be in the hands of its county readers within a few hours after It leaves the press. The Ohsebveb desires to take ad vantage of this opportunity to extend the glad hand of welcome to the new publisher of the Itemizer. During the 15 years this writer has been en gaged in the newspaper business in Dallas, he has had no warmer or truer personal friend than V. P. Fiske. We haveeverfoundhiman honorable, courteous gentleman, ready at all times to lend a hand in any move ment having for its object the up- J building of Dallas and the advance ment of the welfare of the people. It goes without saying that, under Mr. Flake's management, the Itemizer will be found working earnestly and effectively for the increased growth and prosperity of Dallas, and for the development of ail Polk county. Here's success to the "New Item izer;" may it live long and prosper, and may the avoirdupois of its editor continue to Increase-!

ST-J- Mr. U'lleo has demonstrated that ho is a peculiarly smooth and abk politician by the manner in which he has worked up a scheme of laws and secured their adoption, changing the entire character of the constitution and of the governmental scheme of this state. Oregon was originally organized along lines of conservatism, with a constitutional document based very largely on that other Magna Charta of tho nation. Mr. U'lten, in a few brief years, solely and alone, has changed that document until to day it is the most radical of any document of its character existent in ; tne United States. In no other state of the Union is it possible for five per cent and eight per cent of the voters of tho state, which may comprise at any time the absolutely irresponsible and purchasable element, to hold up any law for two years which tho legis lative assembly might see lit to erect, or to demand tho submission to tho people of any proposition, however dangerous may be its character, and thus to cause the spirit of unrest and lack of confidence which may at some time have such Influence on tho state as to very materially retard its ad vancement.

This stone has been tested for couiont purposes by Eastern experts, and tho samples appear to bo equal lu hardnoss and durabilty to the bost imported cement. It is possible that it might be necessary to add a small porcontago of lime to this coment to give it tho proper cohesive qualities, but It Is believed by those ho have examined tho Dallas stone that if any lltno woro needed at all, tho cost would be so small that the cement could bo manufactured at a figure below the price charged for cement Imported from Europe. The quantity of this atono is unlimited. and it la all easy of access. Tho nearest quarry Is less than three miles from the Southern Pacific railroad at Dallas, and the trains of the Dallas and Falls City railroad pass within about one mile of It. A spur could bo built from tho main line of tho latter railroad to the quarry at a small cost We believe the project of developing these quarries for cement purposes Is well worthy of careful Investigation. The first races of the season will be held here Saturday afternoon. There will be two Club harness races, with about seven entries and a free-for-all half-milo running race. There will bo a number of horses from other places, and as tho track is in excellent condition, somo good races are ex pected. Grain Sacks For Sale.
