When this mud dle is cleaned up the county court should see to it that no more printing grafts are allowed. This can be effect ively accomplished by letting the work out in separate items. The tax list can be let out to the lowest bidder and be let according to law to one of the two papers having the largest circulation in the county. Then in separate order bids should be considered from every paper in the county that can give a satisfactory bond that the work will be done in the proper manner, for the printing of blanks, letter heads, enve lopes, etc. Segregation in this manner vill let all county papers in on the bids and the work can be secured at reason able coBt. Prof. J. E. Cherry is making legions of' friends in his canvass as the demo cratic candidate for county clerk. Mr Cherry is an affable gentleman and im presses one with the idea tbat he would be at home in the discharge of the duties in the county clerk's officr-. He is competent in every respect and having been associated in the educational affairs of the county for many years, has form ed a large acquaintanceship with Uma tilla county people. His reputation for integrity and capability stands him well in hand in the campaign, and that he has a flattering chance for election to the office to which he aspires, is freely predicted and in no way casts a shade of reflection on the standing and manly qualities of his opponent. vMr. Cherry ha for several years been engaged in school work in this county, lately hav ing been principal of the Adams school and his services rank high as an educa tor. Mr. P. C. Holland, well known as the traveling representative of the Pacific Paper company, has purchased from Dr. E. E. Full a controlling interest in the Walla Walla Statesman Publishing company and within a short time will uNsume the management of the paper. The Ftateiman will continue to te a democratic paper standing loyally for the principles of government taught by Thomas Jefferson and supporting the democratic organ ziUion and noniin ees in the county, state and nation. ..Judge Hartman, as a conservative busi ness man, has the confidence of the peo ple of Umatilla county. His administra tion of county affairs during his term of office has been economical in every sense of the term, and that the people will vindicate hia business methods cts county judge, will be a testimonial of which he may well feel proud. Busi ness qualifications, cutting out all per sonal likes and dislikes, are what is needed in the county judge's office and taxpayers will vote for them every time. .;- Oregon is familiar , with the railway commission question. It was once iblessed with a one-horse affair which was termed a commission, but which in reality was a graft, and eventually it was abolished. Hence to the Oregon people McBride's Washington railroad commission fight takes on' the phase of a farce and looks as though it were a measure formulated solely for the pur pose of carrying certuin political riders. A remarkable life indeed was that of Henry U. Stanley. He was born in Walts of humble parents 73 years ago, and when three years of age was placed in poor house. When 15 he landed in America a penniless and friendless boy. From that time he began to rise, and be fore he died few men in the world bad achieved greater notoriety than he. "Till'! ' Taylor has made one of the best sherifJEs Umatilla county has ever had, and along with Strain and Hart coan, has done his part in giving the county an economical administration. Venezuela, too, is kicking about the decision of The : Hague arbitration tribunal. However, it was not expected Venezuela would be pleased with any sort of decision which involved the pay ment of money by that government., The proposed primary election law to be submitted to the people at the June election is apparently popular with the masses, and will likely be adopted by the voters. It has the appearance of a bunglesome affair, though most of the people seem to want it, and after they get it will have an opportunity to judge of its merits. Made Young Again.
