Miller for district attorney and J. L. Sitz for joint-representative. Up to the time of their departure it was not known whether Mr. Miller had been endorsed by his own county or not, and they feared it might complicate matters, as Mr. Hope, of Vale, would like the nomination for representative and Malheur has five delegates to this county’s four. If Harney county insisted on Mr. Miller’s nomina tion for district attorney against the wishes of Malheur, they might take a notion and nominate their choice for representative. A press dispatch from Port land under date of April 2, says: The federal grand jury which has been in session for two weeks completed its work today and was discharged after returning six in dictments and drafting a strong letter to the secretary of the in terior denouncing the present land laws, especially the lieu land law and to the evidences of corruption among land of bee official and others as a direct result. At tention is especially directed to the fraudes in Oregon anti a strong appeal is made for a change in the laws to prevent further cor ruption. During its term the grand jury has returned 15 indictments, From the Oregonian we learn that M. A. Moody has carried Eastern Oregon and is quite likely to be the republican nominee for congress again. Although the machine men in Multnomah coun ty have been doing their best to keep the delegates in Portland in line for Mr. Williamson and threatened any who go to Moody with political oblivian, calling them traitors, etc..there are several who have given out their intention to vote for the latter and take chan ces on the hereafter part of the deal. They should be commend ed for their manhood in coming out boldly for their choice regard less of the consequences. The Direct Primary law will be placed oil the ballot to he cast on June 6th, and it is the duty of every voter to secure a copy of this law and study it out for him self, and not rely upon ils recom mendation by any faction or party. The bill is at your disposal, and there is no reason why you should go to the poles unqualified to cast an intelligent vote on this subject. —I.akeview Examiner.
