Tho city ticket was sopar- atn from tho genernl election ballot and the voting place at a different place therefore not all those who, might have voted availed thoinsolvcs 1 an thoy overlooked tho "sideshow" to tho main event.

There was not a full ticket put out, thero being four councllmon to elect and but two namcii nppearod on the ballot, thosu of Jou Krumholz and M, II. Hrenton. In addition to these gentlemen Hen Drown and Joo Thompson woro elected on council men. It, L. Haines had no opposl- tlon for marshal, uor did W. N. Mon-, roe for recorder or Henry Dalton , for treasurer. Tho mayor posltldn was a froo for all and Mrs. draco II, Lampshire won. Mnny names wern written In for this position but Mrs. Lamp-: shire hnd a majority. This unex pected honor was qulto astonishing to tho lady who was elected and sho wus more surprised, perhaps, than any other Individual when Informed of tho rosult. , Mrs. LampBhlro is a capahlo wo man and one who takes an Interest In public affalrn. Sho haa been a prominent mombor of tho Mothers Club for years, took a very active part In war work and has always ' given much tlmo and consideration to tho Ited Cross.

Defeat Tho lloosovolt Bird Bill wont down to dofoat, much to tho surprlso ot thosu who desired It dofoated most. It was ono of tho best and most ef fective fights over put up and tho citizens of Harnoy county can thank William Hanley, first, for tho defeat ot this measure. Mr. Hanley was helped, of course, but it was his por Hlstonco and his money that wont In to tho udvertlsomonts and tho plcturo show slides, tho nowspapor artlclon, Interviews and communications that did tho work. Through his efforts Harnoy county will not bo handi capped In Its dovolopmont from that source, at least. Had circumstances boon different and an organlzod effort boon mado by t tin pcopla of Burns and Harney county, tho rosult would havo likely been mnro decisive, but after Dr. Hthbnrd and Charles W. Bills had given tholr word thoro would bo no organized effort It was a trcmondout undertaking to dofoat tho measure. However, babies havo triumphed over polllcans and Hnrmey Valley will proceed with Its Irrigation pro jects unhampered. It would bo Imroslole to enumer ate thoro who wcro particularly In strumental In the defeat of this bill thoroforo no attompt will bo 'mado to make further portions! montlou. Mr. Hanley doesn't want all tho cred it and wo aro suro this will not meet with his approval when wo stop by giving him personal mention In pre ference to nil others, but wo feel ho deserves It. In looking over tho voto for thU measure as It Is tabulatod In tho Portland Journal, we find but few counties gnve tho bill a majority, but thero aro two Central Oregon coun ties we are ashamed of. Both Dit schutes and Crook counties gavo the bill a majority, yet tho citizens ot, these two counties think, or at loavt claim, to stand for tho dovolopmeut of tho Central Oregon country. Tho voto would Indicate that thu peoplo were more or Ichs iudlfferont and thnt tho game hogs who conio hero every fall to shoot cro busy.

Charley wan fooling sorry for Schaper on the 3a gates, so ho added his lnfluonco with satisfactory results to all concerned. Mr. Sohapop celubratod tho occasion by buying a Ford before ho left town. HUFFMAN LOSKS GRAIN CHOP BY KIRK Earl Conser of the First National Bank and Frank Clerf havo rocontly returned from u trip to tht? Andrcwn country whoro they woro electioneer ing for Bob Staufleld, (nt least that's what Frank said thoy wore doing.) Thoy report that W. D. Huffman re contly lost nlno stacks of grain by flro. Mr. Huffman hud an oxcollont crop, tho writer having visited his pluco In August, and it Boonio a pity that It should bo lost In Buch a man ner, not only for Mr. Huffman but for tho additional reason that the community needed that grain.
