Polk County Observer J. C. HAYTER, EDITOR AND PUBUSHKH Published Seml-Weeklf at 11.60 per Year. Btrtctlj in Advance. Entered Mecond elM mutter March 1, 1907 .. .Srt office t Ullm, Oregon, under the Aet of Congress ol Marcb 3, 17. DALLAS, OREGON, A Pal L 10. 1908. Tie way to build up Dallas is to pat ronize Dallas people. An nwkward blunder, and one greatly regretted by this office, occurred in Tuesday's paper, wben the name of It. L. Chapman wm printed amongthe unsuecensful candi dates for the office of City Council man. Mr. Chapman was not a candi date for the office, had repeatedly told bis friends that he did not want it, and bad refused to permit any nomi nating petition to be circulated in bis behalf. Notwithstanding these facts, and the farther fact that his name was not printed on the ballot, several of his neighbors and friends voted for him by writing bis name on their ballots. When the votes were counted, Mr. Chapman's name was placed on the official tally sheets, together with the number of votes he had received, in accordance with the law which provides that all votes, scattering or otherwise, must be accounted for. This tally sheet was copied by the Observer, and inadvertently the scattering vote was published, instead of following the established custom of printing the namos of the regular candidates. The writer probably re grets this mistake more than anyone else, and this explanation Is made voluntarily to correct any impression that may have been gained that Mr. Chapman was a candidate and was defeated in the election. An addition bolngbullttothoObser ver building this week will nearly double tho lloor space of tho mechan ical department and will greatly relieve the crowded condition of the office. Already we have more machin ery than we have room for, and Im portant additions to the equipment of the office are con tern plated for the com ing summer. No other intorlor town lo Oregon hasaunh acomplctelyequip ped printing establishment as Dal las, and a constantly increasing busi ness makes It uooossary for us to stead ily add new machinery ami type to our already largo plant. Tho office gives employmenttoBlx t oopln, and the work turned out Is of tho same high grade as that produced by the largest city printing hoimes. Hundreds of dollars of outsldo money am brought to Dallas each month by Observer printing, and by fur the greater por tion of It Is spent right here among our homo merchants and business men. The primary nominating election, will be held one week from today. The total registration has not been footed up, but It is believed that it will equal or exceed tho registration of two years ago. Tho fact that tho voters have registered for the primary elec tion proves that they are Interested In the selection of oflloers to manage the affairs of the county and state for the next two years and Indicated that a heavy vote will be polled next Friday A Dallas float In the Portland rose parade would be a nice advertisement of our live and growing town, but turn worth of attractive printed mutter, descriptive of l'olk county, for illstri button In the Eustern sintcs, would bring us much larger and Utter returns.

FAVORS CAKE FOR SENATOR Corvallis Newspaper Gives Numerous Reasons Why He Should Be Elected. The Corvallis Gazette, a staunch Republican newspaper, having given the Senatorial situation careful study, has decided to support Mr. Cake. It's reasons are given as follows: 1st Should Mr. Cake receive the Republican nomination, It will place Mr. Chamberlain "between the devil and the deep sea" without a platform to stand on, be having voluntarily assumed a non-partisan, bappy-go-lucky gait, going the whole hog on Statement No. 1 and telling his Dem cratic brethren he recently loved so well that be has become infatuated "witlfmortof the Rooaeveit policies" until after the June election after which time the probationary state will cease and be will again be permitted to exercise bis conscience by votiog for Democratic measures In the Senate, if elected. 2nd. That as Mr. Cake has stood for, and manfully defended Statement No. 1 for the past two years, there would be uo just cause for Republicans to pre fer a new convert from the Democratic ranks on this question to the exelu- .. - i I ;.t sion or ail oiuer quesuous m importance to the state and Nation which will ccme up during the sena torial term. 3rd. That in tbe light of past his tory, with legislative noia-upt, oji- rupt use of money to "innuence senators and representatives, uieu seekinK election to the legislature on Senatorial years to see the fun ; special trains running with all other cor rupting influences in connection therewith, thus bringiog shame and disgrace on the fair name of our state, our people will never again return to the old system of election by the legis lature. 4th. That a very largo majority of the newspapers in the state are ilrst, last, and all the time in favor of the people electing a Senator. Mb. That nearly every Urango in the state has declared by resolution thatthoy will not support candidates for the legislature who are opposed to election by the poople. Oth. That It is a Republican meas ure passed Dy a jiepuDiiuau legis lature. 7th. Nearly every candidate that has announced for the legislature has subscribed to Statement No. 1, at least in a modified form, and those who failed had to coma back and take their medicine. 8th. With 30,000 Republican major ity behind Mr. Cake, would it lie possible for Mr, Chamberiuin to jump sideways Into the United States Monate by using a little soft soap on weak kneod Republicans? We think not. In view of those facts as we see them, wo muit say that to our minds, tho safest surest best thing for Repub licans to do Is to voto for Mr. Cake for United States Senator.

Tt I economical because It can be quickly turned off wnen not needed. With fjas or kerosene there la the temptation to let light burn when not needed to save bother of llsntir. snr! adjusting. I o some homes the electric light bills amount to only one or two dollars per month. You can probably get some kind ot'artificial light for less money than electric light, but does it aave you anvthing when it limits op portunities for work and recreation ruins your evesight smokes your walls mars decorations and increases 'household work. You could probably save a dollar tomorrow by going without your meals but It wouldn't be economy. It is not so much what you aave, but bow vou save that counts.
