The delegates from this county
to the republican state conventions
were in something of a sweat
when they left here for the scetie
of battle, as they considered them
selves instructed for Wm. 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.
