NEWBERQ QRAPHIC. m o u lina X V BK Y T H U R S D A Y M O R N IN G S H . WQOOWARD. W . C. WOODWARD. $1*50 Per Year in Advance* THURSDAY, APRIL 16, 1906. T . T. Geer is making a hot ra^e for congress in the second district and it looks like he would be a winner. Friday is primary election day and after that date the fraternity o f handshakers will show a heavy falling off in numbers. In a hunt for the “ loaves and fishes” a minority party has everything to j^rin in a fusion proposition, but the m ajority party fellows are easy who bite at the bait. . The Mount Scott Tribune, H. Yincil Conway editor and pro prietor, is the latest venture in the newspaper field. It is a neat little sheet and we hope to see it grow and prosper. «= 1 A number of tow ns are having very successful horse shows this spring. Why ca,n’t Newberg get in line and make a big day o f it. We all like to see good horses and a good horse show creates -an interest in breeding for better boraga. What do you say? The Washington County News issued a sixteen page Board o f Trade edition last week in addi tion to the regular issue o f the Newa It is embellished with numerous halftones o f prominent citisens, residences and business houses o f Forest Grove, and withal makes a splendid adver tising medium, for that part o f W ashington county. . They know a good thing over a t Salem when they see it. Re cently they placed an order with A Portland firm for 5000 souve n ir cards with a reprint o f the picture o f Chehalem valley taken from the top o f Chehalem moon- tain for the souvenir edition of the Graphic in 1905. This is conceded to be the best valley scene ever taken in Oregon. On the cards furnished for Salem it is to be called “ A Willamette valley scene.” Many voters make consider able sacrifice to get out and vote on election day who pay little or no attention to the primaries, seemingly caring little who is to be nominated. Such a course may satisfy those who only care to know that a man belongs to their party and who adopt the policy o f “ vot’er straight” on election day, regardless o f the class of men whose names are to be tonnd on the ticket, bat those w ho 'are anxious to see that good and competent men are placed in responsible positions are usually to be found taking an active interest at primary elections. Vote a Vigorous No. The anti-saloon voters want t o get their eyes open before elec tion day comes round and keep a sharp lookout for the maneuvers o f the enemy. The move of the ■saloon men this year is to get the people to vote to allow tow ns and cities the nght to reg ulate the saloon business which would simply mean that in sev eral counties that have been voted dry certain towns would immediately be made wet by ac tion o f the tow n council. Here are the arguments made against the adoption of the measure which seem very reasonable: “ The loregoing proposed amend- it is entirely superfluous, in- inch as all dties and tow ns in the State o f Oregon do now en- v jo y the fullest possible home-rule, having absolute self-government —the right to make and amend their own charters and enact their ow n laws, subject only to the constitution and the general criminal law's o f the State. This power was conferred by an amendment to the Constitution adopted in the election ,of 1906 and made effective by an act o f the Legislature ot 1907 ‘for car rying into effect amendment to section 2 article 11 of the Con stitution, granting to cities and towns the right to amend their charters.’ ‘ ‘ While the ostensible purpose o f the proposed amendment is to ‘ obtain practical home-rule tor all cities and tow ns in Oregon,’ it is very evident that the real purpose is to suspend the opera tion o f the criminal laws of the State, as to certain practices, within the bounds of municipali ties at their pleasure. If it does give to municipalities any power o f home rule which they d o not now possess, it is some power contrary to the Constitution ot the State or in violation o f the criminal laws. “ The efU$t o f this amendment, if adopted, would be to divest sheriffs and district attorneys o f the power to suppress pool- room s and Sunday saloons, and give municipal authorities power to run as wide open as they de- re. The Constitution now pro vides that d ty charters must be ‘subject to the Constitution and criminal laws o f the State.’ The amendment proposed leaves out this im portant danse.” It is the purpose o f the authors o f the measure to confuse the vôters at the polls and they will n od on bt succeed in many in stances unless there is a general awakening am ong the temper ance people. No measure of more importance to those who oppose the saloon has been be fore the people tor years and it is none to o soon to begin to post people to see that they vote No on this amendment. If it should carry much valuable ground would be lost. Arbor Day was fittingly ob served by Dundee public school. The remains of Mrs. A. Cook were brought to Dundee for bur ial Saturday. Sunday, April 12, being the fifth wedding anniversary o f Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Powell their friends deemed it best that the day be properly observed. Thus friends and neighbors gathered carrying well filled baskets and tables were laid in the spadous dining room which, together with the whole house, had been beautifully decorated with Oregon grape, plum blossoms and sword fern. At dinner over fifty guests sat down to tables loaded with good things, to which all did justice. Mr. and Mrs. Powell were the recipients o f many presents suit able to the occasion, especially several burnt w ood pieces. The time for leaving came all too soon and the guests took their departure wishing host and host ess many happy returns of their wedding anniversary. Mr. and Mrs. Powell are held in high es teem in the community and friends are positive they will nev er forget thdr “ W ooden Wed ding.” Guests from out o f tow n were D. H. Turner and wife, Mrs Prank Wortman and Miss Hod- son, o f McMinnville. Dundee High School «vent over to Dayton Friday to watch the field day games between Dayton and Lafayette High Schools and report a fine time. Dundee High School will give an entertainment and basket so cial in the near future. Ever? one invited. Date given later. Mrs. Myers is on the sick list. The infant daughter o f E.
