Repre sentatives of the local telephone company went out among the public spirited citizens yesterday ovening and took up a liberal col lection for tho purpose of getting such news from over tho Btatc, but so far as tho Tfmcs-Herald can find there has been no suc cess, even tho tho initiative se cured the desired compensation. Positively nothing authentic had been received at that hour, of anything outside of a fow lo cal precincts in this vicinity. It is reported that Brooke foi district attorney had carried On tario solid. The others in the race on tho republican ticket un reported as follews: Duncan ub carrying Vale solid and Marks of Grant County as receiving n ma jority at Wcstfall in Malheur county. The same report says that Aker, democrat, was but 25 ahead of Vic Cozad in Malheur county. Another report states that Stewart of Grant has a big lead in that county over Miller for the office of joint-senator." The returns in this county are coming in very slow, some pre cincts reporting only the vote on some particular contestants. For instance we have only the vote of Comegys and Richardson can didates for sheriff on tho demo cratic ticket from Harney, Hap py Valley and Cntlow. The vote on other offices were omitted entirely. As it looks now for county of ficers the following will be the neminees: County Clerk, E. B. Waters, republican, E. C. Eggle- ston, democratic. Sheriff, Sidney Comegys has a lead of 17 over A. K. Richardson on the democratic ticket with the chances between them about even, Austin Goodman, republi can. Assessor, J. J. Donegan, re publican: C. E. Briltingham and E. J. Callow are closo for the democratic nomination with chances favoring Brittingliam. Treasurer, Simon Iewis, demo cratic; R. A. Miller, republican. Surveyor, Frank Gowan. re- punlican; C. E. Beery, democrat. County Commissioner very close on both tickets among the contestants with chances favor ing Fred Peters on the republican ticket and J. E. Sizcmorc on the democratic.

It is just lambing time with the sheep men and the loss hns been very heavy. The Times-Herald has been in formed that J. R. Jenkins 'phoned in tho other day he had lost 1200 lambs and his neighbors had lost proportionately. This is a serious set back to the wool in dustry of the country and will be felt by a largo number of people.

On Thursday afternoon, April 11, 1912, occurred the sad death of John Milton Hoffeditz, the be loved son of Mr. and Mrs. J. M HofTeditz of Valley View. The funeral service was held in the school house Friday afternoon conducted by A. B. Whitney Jr. The little fellow was taken sick tho Sunday previous to his death und nt tho time his illness wna thought to bo of a very mild form nnd not at all serious. Shortly before he passed away a complication of scarlet fever and pneumonia set in and al though everything possible was done that human hands and pro fessional skill could do it proved of no avail. If Johnny had lived until tho 25th of this month he would have been seven years old. Ho was very much in love with his school studies and very prompt in his attendance. At the close of tho school session in March his teacher presented him with n prize, as he had not been absent ono day or missed a lepson during tho school year. Ho was a member of tho Valley View Sunday school and rarely missed n Borvico.
