The election Monday was a memorable one in the history of the state and county. The high water mark in republican majorities was reached and the passing of the direct primary nominating law and the local option law is epoch making. The manner of naming candidates has been revolutionised as will be found when the direct primary is put in operation. The loca option law is founded on the majority rule, which is the basic principle of our government, and extends the application of that rule to the various sub divisions of the state county, district and munic U, matter of the retail sale of liquors. ty, a nmrtioAbilitv of the law is yet to be jb. aj v 0 TKo Polk county election was the most mniiVn ever waced in the on.l nrpsented some novel features.

Sqme one will please figure out what tne republican majority for Polk county is. It is time the summer band concerts were provided for. The evenings are pleasant now and large crowds are in town every Saturday ev ening. Still more people will spend their even ings here when they can be entertained with band music. Eleven men were killed by the explosion of an in infernal machine under the railway station at Independence, Colorado, Monday. That town's namesake in Oregon has no desire to compete for honors.

Polk County Observer. The democratic committee did not import an editor. It just picked up Carey Hayter, bag, baggage and print shop, and set him down in their midst.

One of the most interesting and gratifying features of the campaign just closed has been the admirable work of State Chairman Frank C. Baker. Originally chosen for his business ability, wide acquaintance, tactful address and his pos session of means and leasure, he has developed in action a remarkable amount of energy, ability and skill. He has correctly apprehended the true issue as the endorsement of President Hoose yelt, and has especially bent his energies to har monizing the party with excellent effect. Through his personal letters to voters, he has induced republicans otherwise disaffected to get into line for the republican ticket, especially legislative nominees. Mr. Baker's original appointment was made without his solicitation, but his signal suc cess abundantly justifies the confidence of those who recommended his selection.
