I linta VAUAliiAr! mimiVAHi 1nitAia rrom irienas in eastern uregon aim ing my recommendation m to the candidacy of Senator Butler and ex-Governor Pierce I have not been able to reply to all of those inquiries in perron, and take this opportunity of answering them and at the lame time to give my views to all of those . with whom I huve been closely associated during many years In eastern Oregon. Of coure, I am supporting Senator Butler, not only because he has been my personal friend for many years, but also because I bollove ho is bo. t qualified for the position. Irrespective of the outcome of the national election, the western public land states are predominantly republican, and policies effecting Oregon and its neighbors will be formed and carried through by western republicans in congress. The interests of eastern Oregon nro linked with the public land, irriga tlon, forestry, grazing and transport af lin sAwnttlnmsi 9 ntlwf woutafn wuvii ya vvivma vi vmn t vvw states and their representatives in . congress, so long led and inspired by Nick Sinnott, hla dominating and same view-point, intlmnto a. -qualntance and an equal ability to be leader that has given his per sonal friend and close neighbor, Nick Sinnot, his dominating and . powerful leadership in the home of representatives. Judge Sinnott will be able to help Butler asume a com- , manding position from his first day in congress. Bob Butler is honest, courageous, with more ability as an orator than bis opponent, and has the health and . youth that will permit a long and useful service in congress. That is what the 2nd district need;. The election of Bob Butler would mean that we had selected an active, capa ble, industrious man with a long life of usefulness before him, and his election would give us a repre sentative who would immediately ns- , tumo a leading role in congress, where he could render a real and Satisfactory tevice to the people of eastern Oregon. Our section of tho , state is facing and expecting a real , development in its agricultural, ir rigation, livestock and power re sources, and ,we would elect a man who would tie nllvn to and nrnfppt our intero:ts in all of those matters hcre national legislation and na tional epnrdprintions as well as nd Minibtrt.tivc regulations touch and offset our local resources and welfare.

Ilenneghan Is constructing pens and yard- for foxes at the Wil liams camp groundu in East Mau pin, yard to be 12x50 feet In size and to contain pens for several pairs of the fur bearing animals. As a result of an investment in a pair of silver foxes last year, Mr. Ilenneghan starts out with two' pair, and expects to receive them shortly, or as soon as the yard end pens are completed. The pair he purchased fir.t wero parents to four little foxes, but two of them died, leaving him with but the two pair as a neculus. He will give the animals the closest attention and no doubt will soon have a stock on hand. L. C. Wilholm also bought a pair of foxes front the same firm as did Ilenneghan, and may have hla pair sent here and placed in the camp grounds yard. FIRST FOUR RIGHT AND LEFT And the Rest of . the Figures Will Be Called Saturday Nigbt The modern dances are a burles que of those of days gone by. There tire many of this age who do not know how to dance a square dance, Virginia reel, Scotch reel or any of those dances which appeal to old timers. All will have a chance to participate in old-time dances at Le gion hall on Saturday night coming, for the local Legion post will pull off a dance such as was wont to warm tho cockles of the hearts of the cwains and lassies of years agone. The Ladles Auxiliary will furniHh supper and that, with real old-timo music, should be a magnet to draw a good crowd to the hall Saturday night. Each Cot Two Dear' Gus Derthick, wife and daughter, Fonnie, and Jim Vaughan returned from the Umpqua country Tuesday evening, bringing four fine deer with them. Both Gus and Jim prov ed their marksmanship by each bringing down a v couple venison, which were the 'fattest of any seen here this season. They were in the lower coflntry about 10 days. . More For Maupin Mrs. Arthur Creighton and daugh ter, Mrs. J. J. Kohoe, the latter from Seattle, arrived Saturday from Port land. The daughter left for Seattle the next day, having come her to :ee hr farther. On Sunday MIbs Sammy Creighton came up from Portland and with the family will live in the Butler cottage next to The Times print shop. In the Blue Mountains Everett Richmond and a friend from The Dalles left yesterday morning for the deer habitat in the Blue mountains. They went in the Richmond truck and intend to make their stay cover a full week, wheth er they kill any deer or not Frock Shop. , The Dalles, Ore. A MAN OF ABILITY, STAMINA, FORCE AND RESOURCEFUL NESSRESIDENT OF THIS SECTION FOR MANY YEARS BUSINESS MAN OF HIGH QUALITY '- The accompanying picture is that of A. S. (Sid) Johnson, Democra tic nominee for the office of sheriff of Wasco county. Mr. Johnson needs no introduction to the people of the county seat, although he is not generally known throughout the farming communities. Look at his picture, then allow your minds to run alohg business channels. Mr. Johnson homesteaded in Was co county many years ago, long be fore Sherman county was set off from this county. He figured as one of the substantial men of the new copnty for many yean; his advice was sought by many on business matters. He has been a successful wheat grower, knows the livestock game from all angles and thoroughly understands the problems that face the Oregon agriculturists. Today he is owner of two prolific wheat ranches in Sherman county. For the past eight years Mr. Johnson has been a resident of The Dalles. He is there engaged in the real estate business and his clientele is one of the largest In this section. People who have property for sale know they will get a square deal when they list with Sid Johnson, and ; those who are looking to the ac quisition of property realize they are dealing with an honest, conscienti ous end scrupulous man when they AUCTION AT SHEPFLINS SAT. Fine Chance to Pick Up Horses, Cattle and Hogs' Cheaply On Saturday of this week Knute Hedin, the silver voiced singer of Pine Grove, will let his melodious tones run rampant when' he cries the sale of the Shepflin livestock, farm implement", household goods and a thousand and one other things us ually found on a well ordered ranch. Frr.nk Stuart will be on the job as clerk and will attend to taking in tho cash as well as arranging to carry those who desire to give notes for their purchases. Julius has been busy buying all kinds of edibles end will serve all who attend the sale with a bounteous lunch, all he asks is that visitors bring their own cups. Got Three Deer Billy Miller and Joe Kramer went to the Blue mountains last week after deer. That was Joe's aecond hunt for the season, the first one not being prolific of venison. 1 This time, however, the two men succeed ed in bringing down three fine bucks. Bug Still Here , The little blonde bug which has graced the street in front of The Times shop for several days is still on the job. It is a real nice little car end should appeal to some one who likes to drive soft and low. It is capable' of hitting up a fast clip when wanted and will run on the Henry Ford reputation, with a min imum amount of gas and oil es e coaxcr. The first $25.00 handed to us takes the bug away. Hunt Go Busy Hearing that quite a bunch of names were required to fill out the quota necessary to effect the plac ing of the recall of Judge Adkisson on the ballot, Billy Hunt and Bill Staats visited the Flat regions Sat urday and succeeded in having the names of over 60 voters and tax payers attached to the petitions. When Mr. Hunt goes after a thing that thing better quit end come into ramp, as was uhown by the number of names he secured. seek his services in quest of invest ment Mr. Johnson is not seeking the office of sheriff for the purpose of getting bread and butter for bb family. He is possessed of suffi cient of this world's goods to take care of that end of the buaincts.In making the campaign Mr, Johnson has been nerved with the idea that it takes en extra good man to fill the shoes of Levi Cbrisman, but be lieves he can do so, end that to the extent that he will be able to ef fect a saving in the conduct of the office, end at the came time keep up its usual efficiency. If he is elected will be a real sheriff, as he possesses that personality and sa gacity that goes to make an ideal peace officer for the county. He makes no promises other than a guarantee of honesty, economy end an administration in keeping with the provisions of the law. Wasco county will make no mis take when they vote for Sid John son. If elected he will fit into the office like an old shoe on a sore foot, end the saving he will effect will not be a few dollars, but will mean much to all taxpayers. All money coming to his office will be turned into the proper channels. He will be content with the salary pro vided for the sheriff and will en force ell provisions of the law with out fear or favor. The Times has been marked up a3 being ultra Republican. That is an error. We believe in supporting the wt fit for the office, and in giving support to Sid Johnson we know we are working in the interest of the best man. Voters will realize that fact before election and when the day comes to cast votes we expect to see the bigest vote of the county cart for A. S. Johnson for the im portant office of sheriff. FOOTBALL IS ROUGH GAME Several Maupin Players Wear signa of Madras Caulks In- The football game , between tire Maupin and Madras High school ' teams, played on the Maupin grid on Saturday last resulted in a sweep ing victory for the visitors. Not alone did the Madras boys win the game but they left mementos of their visit on the faces and bodies of several Maupin boys. Ira Kidder nursed a badly cut hand, Orville Fra ley entertained some unsightly cuts on his face, while Elton Snodgrass' nose showed the imprint of calks. Tom Slusher, while not showing any bruises said that his body wa; cut up sufficient to show that he had been in the game. No parlor game is football. Last Sheep In The last of the Fargher sheep ar- river from the mountains Sunday and were taken to the rach on Bake oven the next day. On Tuesday about 700 of those sheep were driven to Shaniko and there loaded out for markets in the eart Con a Huntin' O. D. and B. D. Bothwell with W. P. filler left for the tall and uncut Saturday, it being their intention to slaughter a few deer. 1 hey went in a truck which was equipjed with all the parapheralia imaginable, and which was large enough to bring back all the deer in the mountain:!. Mrs- Theresa Hawkela, aged and almost poverty-stricken resident of Vienna, has been willed $1,000,000 by a wealthy American who was her sweetheart of long ago. Notice to Legal Voters, Town of Maupin. The date of October 26, 1928, has been set by the Town Council for the nomination of Town Officers, to be voted on at "the coming election on December 3, 1928. Said meeting will b held at the Oddfellow hall at 7:30 p. m. COUNCIL, TOWN OF MAUPIN By J. H. Woodcock, Recorder. A report is in circulation to the effect that the county court has the sum of 6,000 on hand which will be applied to the construction of a basement at the county farm. The recent report of the grand Jury con tained a recommendation that such should be constructed. Should that recommendation be followed by the county court, it is likely that an in junction against expenditure will be sued for and the building of the basement stopped. , It is said by those who claln to know, that the building at the farm is not worth the cost of the base ment. To appropriate money for the improvement would be a waste, end now that the county officials ere pledged to a season of economy end tax reduction, it is said there will be a watch kept on the doings of the county board and ell unnecessary expenditures be nipped in the bud. CIRCULATING MAIL PETITION Patrons Down White River Want Rout Opened to Sherars Ward Buzan was in Maupin on Monday circulating a petition for the continuation of the Wamic Tygh mail route to Sherars. Before the mail ine was changed the mail was carried from Wamic to Sherars. Now patrons along that route ere compelled to hold their cream until the afternoon down trip of the mail wagon, thus eausing them great in convenience, and ' sometimes ' con siderable loss. The petitions asked that the mail route be continued to Sherars Bridge, thus giving milk shippers a chance to get their mail on the midnight train for Portland, insuring early delivery. i. The new mail route has not bene fited Maupin to any great extent the early arrival of the Cregonian being about the only real benefit we enjoy. There is some first class mail arriving on that line, but the matter of the few hours between that arrival nd that of the afternoon 0. W. mail train makes no appre ciable difference in correspondence with outside points. Auctioneer Advertises N.- G. Hedin has an advertisement in this isiue of The Times in which he states he is ready to cry auction sales. He also is equipped to take care of all legal matters pertaining to sales, arrange for advertising such and will always work for. his clients' interest Mr. Hedin needs no introduction to the people of this section as an actuioineer, for he has cried many sales since coming to Juniper Flat and at each one realiz ed prices in excess of what was ex pected. If you are contemplating having a sale see Mr. Hedin before making all arrangements; he'll treat you right Chiloquin Local state bank sold to Cancorporation. LEGION HALL. Maupin A SUNDAY.

Staats, with Sam Ward of Boyd went to the county seat Tuesday for th pur pose of filing the recall "potitionj asking that Judge Adkisson bo un seated as county judge. The gentle men were informed that if the petition were filed before the begin ning of the 20-day limit it would be necessary to call a special election on the matter, whereas, if they wait ed until Saturday the matter might be placed on he regular election ballot at the coming election. It is reported that Judge Adkt son has stated that if 1,000 names were signed to the petitions, he would resign, thereby making a vote on his recall unnecessary. Thore , having the matter in hand will prose cute the work of securing signatures with greater interest In the attempt to secure the additional names, it will then be up to the judge to make his word good and reign before the voters have a chance to show their displeasure of his actions while in the position as county judge.

C. Fulkerson, government trapper for ibis section, again num ber; among the high catches for September. In that month, working 30 days, he succeeded in catching one bobcat 16 coyotes and two bear, making e total of 19 predatory ani mals taken. As the department publishes only the eleven highest marks for each month, it will be seen that our trapper was not idle dur ing the month clored. Convalescents Out Dr. Short and Mrs. Signe Fischer who have been confined to their rooms for several days, had so far recovered as to be able to be about town Monday. Dr. Short has been ill on several occasions lately, while Mrs. Fischer has been suffering with an attack of nervous prostra tion.
