The Orceon delec,tes will ro to
tlic republican national convention
instructed for Tatt. Well, that's us
It should be.
A week from next Monday is the
time stt for the general election

Wasn't the rcceut republican
state convention at Portland a
beautiful illustration of the old-time
political convention? One crowd
was absolutely in power, everything
was "cut uud dried," the wishes of
the bosses were forced through
with neatness and dispatch under
the snap and crack ol the political
whip, those republicans who hap
pened to differ Irotu the bovos were
slaughtered and devoured (figura
tively), and the politician enjoxed
the sweet taste of bis onc-tirae pow
.er for a brief period And yet
i, there are those who ak the people
to Jo away with the direct primary
aod go back to that state of affairs.
When a man performs his duty
and that.vU disagreeable uud per
cbanecaIdangcrous oue he should
be commended therefor. When
this duty bas been performed in be
half of the public welfare, the com
mendation should be all the more
freely given. Frank Klkius, sheriff
ot Crook county, slioulu be com
mended for the manner in which
he handled the C. Sam Smith case
This affair was certain to stir up
much bitter feeling between two
- factions and, if the sheriff prose
cuted it as he should, he was bound
to antagonize some who had been
.his friends for years. Furthermore,
many believed that the successful
prosecution of the guilty men would
be a dangerous piece of work, an
they based their judgment on what
had been done by lawless cattlemen
(in former yecrs. But neither los-.
f of friends nor possible danger de-
- terred the sheriff from performing
his duly as a public officer. A
crime had been committed, the
guilty ones must be punished, and
he followed where the evidence led
Give us a few more sheriffs like
prank Etkins and lawlessness and
"range wars" will be stamped out
of Crook couuty. It is not ncces
sary for The Bulletin to say more
except to remind the voters that
Prank Hlkins is a candidate for re
election. You can cosily find hb
name on the ballot when it cornea
to voting.
The first conference of the gov
ernors of the states of the American
Union, held in Washington last
:week, is freely conceded to have
been one of the most important con
ferences ever held in America. It
was called by President Roosevelt
to consider meaus for conserviug
the natural resources of the naiiou
"The governors adopted a 'Declare
tlon of Principles" in which they
strongly tosimend President Roose
'velt for tbi stand he .has taken to
'ttop the waste of and to protect our
natural resources. With this end
"Ja View, the governors recommend
zd co-operation between the various
States uud between the states and
the federal government. President
' Roosevelt again laid emphasis on a
wise policy when he said to the as
sembled governors:
"Take such a matter aS ciirglrg a rent
for water power. My po5it'on tf-U urn

And still the fun goes on. Again
the I.aidlaw Chronicle jumps into
the air with n howl nml n yell and
comes down on The Bulletin with
both feet or attempts to. With
much fuss and fury it vainly en
leavers to put The Bulletin out of
business, but The Bulletin is here
to May for many lotm moons to
come. As we proved last week the
Chronicle editor is an adept figure
juggler, and in his last Lvsue he
awaiu entertains his readers with n
few of his old time stunts.
He boasts with a loud voice over
the scoops he has made on The
Bulletin, and cites a number of un
important court cases that he re
purlcd.atul this paper did not. But
Oh, ye gods and little fishes, how
The Chronicle did full down) And
ith what .side-splitting humor du
we view the boastfuluess of that
little sheet whose home is Laidlaw
True, it reported a half doaci cases
involving cambling fines of $50 to
75 aud affairs of equal trifling im
portancc cases that The Bulletin
did not report because it had matter
th it it deemed of more importance.
Yes, the Chronicle told all about
these little affairs but not oue single,
solitary word about the conviction
of C. Sam Smith the most import
ant case that has been tried in
Crcok county for years, as it in
volves the stamping out of that okl
time lawlessness that resulted iu the
range wars." Why such utter
silence on the Chronicle's part?
Let's seel The Bulletin reported
the meat of thecvidence introduced,
the conviction and sentencing of
Smith, his appeal, the sentencing
of Kiliott, and the dismissal of the
indictment against Smith's son
Six points of great interest to every
man, woman and child in thecountv
and nary a word by this hustling
Chronicle. Again, why this silence?
We know not the reason therefor,
uuless it was thut Bro. Seabury was
too busy counting the lines in The
Bulletin and vehemently roasting
this paper to give his readers the
news. Dear reader, isn't it a fact
as plain as the nose on your face
that when you want rfal and Kit
UAHUt news you must read The
Bulletin to get it?
He asks why The Bulletin did
not print the jury list. We answer
because we did not want it. Of
what news was that? The Chronicle
bad three men drawn from Bend
One of them is in faraway Minne
sota and one did not attend court
at all That's another example of
the Chronicle's khuabu: news.
Again, the Chronicle laughs
about what T. II Shcvlin said
about Bend making a city of 25,
000 people. Ol cotlrse Bro. Sea
bury, with his little 2x4 sheet, has
a better business head than Mr
Shcvhn, one of the world's lumber
kings. And then he 'tells what
Latdlaw is going to do. Why,
man alive, if Laidlaw ever amounts
to anvthiug it will only be a prcttx
suburban residence section contigu
ous to Bend. He boasts about
those two sawmills located in
'Laidlaw's tributary territory." a
rfew miles south of Wapinitia. That
puts tbem about 70 miles from
Latdlaw as the crow flics and a
hundred miles or more by wagon
road. Lordy, man, study your
Keography' And Bro. Seabury is
so silly as to say that those saw
mills miles and miles away mean
more to Latdlaw than does the fact
to Bend that T. H Shevlin bus
chosen a mill site and will build
mills here. What an admiration
we do have for his keen judgment.
But enough of that! Bro. Sea
bury finally gets down to compar
ing the quality of news in the two
papers. And now we've got the
Chronicfe where we want it. rl'ick
up tbc Chronicle of last week and
analyse it. You will find mighty
little rial news. First, however,
you will find six items stolen from
The Bulletin and no credit given.
Bu'Uh'en, that's all right Take
for Instance the first na5e. In the
firstcdlrniVii an attfcle telling4' its
readers the astonishing news thst
the Chronicle will reach them, one
tiny earlier. Then theiv is over
hiilfn column given to n ktiselcss

This is followed by two columns of
Sunday school convention news
ami nu item tegardmg the finishing

whole page Then there is u- hall
column given to announcing 11
meeting of the l.imlltuv grange

dotett lines Another first page
item is to the effect that some snuff
got .spilled on the Lnidlnw mull ami
caused much. Sucexiug, another thut
bisherman Barnes was lishitiiz in
the Deschutes, and five or si. items
of similar great importance. Now.
dear lender, where U the news of
general interest that is of interest
to people outside of Lniilhtvv on
the first page of the" Chronicle?
Now, compare that showing with
The Bulletin's first page of last
week six columns of solid tieway
reading matter In the first column,

We know no letter wa to close
this pleasant little discussion than
by quoting a teniaik MiO'W by a

John Steidl with intimidating turn
to vote ctxitrarv to his convHtious,
aud Mr. Stcidl's statement reuard-
ing this matter; annoiiiicemeiil that
the Wcnaudy stage line will put on
an automobile; two columns of
county uuws notes and miscellane
ous items of general interest; anil
finally two columns filled with A.
M. Drake's letter descriptive of his
travels, letters that Bulletin rtradcrs
are commending highly and in
which they " tlicv me deeply in
terested. There was more real live I
rending matter on the first page ot !
The Bulletin than in the entire
Chronicle. Red ink and mammoth
headings do not make news.
Then turn to the next page of
the Chronicle. A tmrtton of one
column given to reading matter,
the balance ads. The next page
given up to an attack on The Bulle
tin, one .short editotiul about Can
didate Springer, aud the balance
filled with rot about the Chronicle
and the Chronicle's editors. Newsy,
isn't it?
That brings us to the Chronicle's
last page. We find 28 items telling
that "Jim Jouea or John Brown
were iu town todav;" seven items
telling that so-and-so had ordered
extra copies of the Chronicle, 1 3
wy locals, seven ot wlttcii were
Chronicle ads; several items telling
that so-and-so fished in the Des
chutes on such a day; two or thtee
about some old horse being "ill"
(poor old horsie); another, about
some old hen hatching n batch of
chickens; and items without num
ber of equal news importance as the
above. Good live news, isn't it'
Items that the people are dying to
read! And the Chronicle man
asks why we do not fill The Bulle
tin with similar rot. We hope
that some kind friend wilt take us
out in the tall timber and shoot us
if we ever inflict similar punish
ment on The Bulletin readers by
giving thcra such rubbw.li. why,
if we so desired we could fill the
entire paper abut Jimmy Jones
coming to town after a sack of salt,
John Brown fishing 111 the Den-
chutes, and Mother Smiths old
hen "coming off" with 15 chicks
But we can fill The Bulletin with
better stuff than that, eveu if Bro.
Seabury does have to resort to such
foolishness to get out a paper.
That's the manner in which the
Chronicle '.puts it all over the
Bulletin." Last week we (Minted
out several important news (?)
items that had appeared in the
Chronicle that had no foundation
in fact whatever mere idle dreams
by Bro. Seabury. This week we
.show up the silly rot with which
the Chronicle is filled (since Bro.
Seabury wishes to compare nualitv
of news). Yes, we are always
ready for any reader to take The
Bulletin aud compare it with the
Chronicle, for therein lies The
Bulletin's certain victory.
Between times the editors of the
Chronicle visit Bend and plead
with Bend merchants to cut down
