A. Mat thews aree shortly to return to Sim naho Presbyterian mission to re sume their labor, with the Red men, who have been without ' spiritual leadership at Shimnasho since Inst fall when the Matthews left that field to accept a call at Glencullen, near Portland. The .Matthews' 13 years at Simnssho with the red men proved too much of an appeal and they long tof return. They even claim to bo homesick. It is with great satisfaction that the white poo pie of Maupln, Madra, -nd Wapin itia learn of this good news. Rev. and Mrs. Matthews have a host of friends who deeply regretted their leaving.

Scatr ButJ ' choU Well Qualified For Position The Dalles Solidly Behind Hie Cm gressloeal Candidacy THE DALLES, Ore., April 30. (Special) With the old fimlliar name of N. J. Slnnott Jiot on the primary ballot for congressman, the voters of eastern Oregon will be ob liged to write In the name of their favorite candidate and mark an X In front of It at the coming pri maries May 18. Congressman Slnnott has been ap pointed by President Coolidge to a high government office, that of judge of the United States court of claims. Subsequently he withdrew hi, name as a candidate for ejec tion to congress. Sinnott's appoint ment camo too late for anyone to be through the regular procedure. All I rimary bailout in the eastern Ore gon district will be rend "FOR REP RESENTATIVE IN CONGRESS, SECOND DISTRICT," but no name will be printed for the voters to choose from. Each voter , will be i j obliged to write in the name of his I favorite candidate and mark an X ! in front of it to make sure his 1 choice is counted by the Judges and ! clerks of election. With this condition existing the republican, who seek the office long held by Slnnott will have a tank to instruct their friends how to cast their ballots. The first candidate formally an nounced in State Senator R. R. But ler of The Dalles. He also served as circuit judge in Gilliam, Sherman and Wheeler counties. Judge Butler ha, undertaken to explain the prop er method of voting to all voters, however, whether or not the voter is favorable to his candidacy. Other Butler said: "The direct primary law provides that all petitions for nominations required to be filed with the secre tary of state shall be filed not later than thirty-five days prior to the pri mary nominating election. Congress man Sinnott waa. appointed to the Judgeship after it was too late for other candidates for congress in this district to file, under the provision referred to, and as there I, no pro vision of the law permitting the name of a candidate for congres, in this district to be printed on the ballot, it will be necessary for the voter to write In the name of his candidate and In ' order to avoid any question as to the legality he should be careful to place a cross mark before the name thus written In. A name written in, however, without being also marked with an 'X, will be counted as a vote under the law, as it shows the intent of tho voter."
