The News touches the very heart
of the matter. The only trouble
with the republican arty in Oregon
today is that those who &tarul as its
lenders arc not in touch with ad
vanced public opinion. These lead
ers and .1 few of the influential re
publican papers of the state are ap
patently blind to a forward political
movement that is progressing
among the people. They have
placed themselves in opposition to
this movement and, as is always
the case when civilization takes a
step forward, those who oppose it
arc crushed and obliterated. Hence
,t is that the republican party in
Oregon, unfortunately led by a few
blind leaders, has met defeat during
the past few years in the election ot
some of the leading officers of the
itatr.
these men nnd papers ate taking l hir As n matter of fact, the fire

exHMieuccd tituhermnu who was on
the ground until the lire was put
under cottttol, say the damage to
the bin merchantable timber will he
only n small per cent of the totnl
stand of tiuilmr.
So what's the use of getting
hysterical over the matter, nnd
sending out .reports that are mis
leadline. According to these re
ports nn outsider would think this
section had been almost demtdttd of
timber. Cheer tip, boys, it's not
nearly so bad as that
There is a popular trend in Ore
gon toward better government. To
obtain this the people are striving
to free themselves from political
bosses arid tnarhitie politics. The
popular judgment has decided that
this can best be obtained by means
of the primary law, the initiative
and referendum, the recall, State
ment Ko. 1. and undoubtedly other
advanced laws stilt to be enacted.
The only reason under the sun wk
thc people demand these laws it be
cause they believe such measures
will enable them t) secure better
lawmakers and betteroverntuent.
They have been enacted oue by
one, and tlie primary law, the in
itiative and referendum, and State
ment No. t have been tried in oper
ation. The mass of the voters are
heartily in favor of them. This wus
detnoustraltd beyond a shadow of a
doubt at the last general election
when the recall, corrupt practices
bill, people's senator choke, and
proportional representation were all
adopted by wry large votes. These
measures Hare come to stay and the
people will never give them up ex
cept for something better. To be
Mire, these laws may need amend
ment and improvement in some
particulars, but the underlying
principle beneath thean U sound,
namely, that the people shall have
the supreme voice in the making of
their laws.
As has been said before, the
trouble with certain republican
lenders ntid newspapers is that they
have placed themselves in bitter op
position to these measures, and as
u result the voters have, to a cer
tain extent, turned against the one
time leaders. The desire of these
leaders is to lead the pa-ty back to
and the election of Governor Cham
bcrlaiu to the Ctiitul States senate
Thev nre using all sot is of childish
argument in un attempt to .show
that the coventor is not the real
choice of the people. And right there
is where they make their serious
error and show that they are trail)
not in touch with the mass of vot
ers. Hefore the general election
The llulletiu advocated the election
of the republican nominee mid did
uot believe the state would elect a
democrat to the United Stales sen
ate. Since the election we ate fit in
ly convinced that Governor Cham
berlain is the choice of the people.
flic is the man they want to repre
sent them in congress. We have
carefully felt the pulse of public
opinion in this section, and Cham
ucriaiu is rue cuoicc 01 n targe ma
jority of the voters.
And what is the reason of this?
Why docs a stale that is republican
by 30,000 elect n democrat to the
United States senate? There is but
one reason, and that is that the vot
ers have lost faith in republican
lenders in Oregon and prefer Cham
bcrlaiu, a democrat, to the republi
can nominees. They believe that
Chamberlain will stand for those
measures and policies that the peo
ple want, .and that he will not be a
tool of "the interests." And, ns
The Bulletin said last week, that is
the paramount it-sue today. Not
whether a mail is a republican or
democrat, but rather what sort of a
man is he. That is the only man
ner in which you can adequately
explain the election of Chamberlain,
a democrat, to the senate by a state
strongly republican.
There is promise of a bitter tight
at the next legislature to defeat
Chamberlain and elect a republican.

1902 they unanimously authorised
the hoard to erect nnd furnish a
new school house, particulatly in
structing the board to secure single
desks. In 1905, with but one dis
senting vote, the district voted

six room building. In February,
1906, with only nine opposing votes
out of a total of about sixty, the
voters instituted the district high
school ami at the annual school
meeting in 1907 they unanimously
author ied the board to erect and

succeed they will bo over-riding the
will of the people, and that is an
archy. If they should succeed and
we do not believe they will they
will bring down upon the republi

the first opportunity the voters get
to express their displeasure at such
tactics.

Frineville papers got rather ex
cited over the forest fires that were
burning in this section last week,
and consequently the accounts they
printed of the damage done reads
more like a fairy tale than anything
else. The Journal says that "ordi
nary business in Ilend, Redmond,
O'Xcil, Hums, Powell Iluttes and
other places has been temporarily
shelred, while every available man
has gone forward to meet the ex
traordinary emergency caused by
the fires." We do not know how
business was affected elsewhere, but
in Ilend it was the same, as though
there were no fire, and not a busi
ness man, farmer, or anyone else
who had anything to do was affect
ed in the slightest by the fire. He
kept right on at his work. "Ordi
nary Uusines was just as ordinary
as ever except that the demand for
supplies for the fire fighters made it
a little better than usual.

This bnildittg was erected in 1906
and nil the rooms and hall way on
the first floor finished. During 1907
one school room with connecting
rooms and hall way was finished
011 the second floor. This year
still another room is being finished,
Iheichy leaving only the fiolsliiifg
of one mote school toont with con
ucctitii! rooms, the sewage and
lelectrie systems and the permanent
heating apparatus to fully complete
the building and furnishings as
contemplated.
In his annual report for 1907
Superintendent Diuwiddic says that
this building when completed will
be by far the twwt modern school
building in Crook county.
1 ho High School.
At a time when the district was
already annually taxed for the sup
jiort of what was supposed to Ire n
legally conducted county high
school at our county scat and when
there was no law in existence to
exempt our district from a tax for
the support of a county high school
when conducted in accordance with
the laws of Oregon, the voters of
the district authorized the organi
zation and maintenance of n dis
trict hich school, in accordance
with which n high school was at
once instituted in February, to'.
and by the action of the directors
in lune of this year the same was
rained in nil repecta to the stand
ard reunited by the laws of Oregon
for county ItiVh schools.
When considering the fact that
in 1 000 what was then the ltcud
.precinct (a district 18 by 40 miles)
had only n population 01 st people,
that the map of the town ol llend
was only filed in May, 1901, ami
that I'rmcvillc (our county sent)
founded in 1871, and supported by
the taxes of the entire county for
this puro$c since 1903, did not
have tiny high school as stipulated
in the statutes of Oregon or as re
quired in other states prior to the
school year of roo7-tyoS, the pro
groicncs of the llend school
patron is sufficiently apparent to
assure the continuance of the ad
vanced state that the liend school
system has attained.
