TO DIVIDE RANGE
WENAHA RESERVE WILL BE
PARCELLED DECEMBER 16.
Range District Lies in Umatilla,
Union, Wallowa, Walla Walla,
Garfield, Columbia Counties.
J. M Schmitz, of Walla Walla, for
ester iu charge of the Weuaha forest
reserve iu the northwest corner of
Umatilla county, has called a mass
meeting of stockmen to bo held at
Walla Walla on December 16, for the
purpose of parcelling the reserve for
grazing purposes during the coming
year.
This reserve is one of the grazing
regions in the Inland Empire and is
well watered throughout. It has al
ways been a paradise for stock during
the summer mouths ou acoouut of the
luxuriant pasturage and abundance of
water and there promius.es to be a
sharp content over the division of the
reserve.
The Weuaha forest reserve lies in
the eouutics of Umatiila, Wallowa
and Union iu Oregon, and Walla
Walla, Columbia and Garfield in
Washington, aud the district is pat
rouized largely by sheep and cattle
men from all theso counties in both
states.
Numerous streams including the
Wcunha river, Little Salmou, Walla
Walla river, George aud Asotin
creeks aud many small tributaries of
the Graud Koude rivei- all head iu the
high mountains iu the resorve aud it
is one of the most delightful summer
ranges aud cauipiug regions in the
northwest.
COMING ELECTION.
Uuveruor ClmmberUlu 1Ih ltiit Little
Opposition.
The Salem Journal gives the fol
lowing review of tho state election
prospouta and promises:
Next Juue the people of Oregou will
select an eutiro new board of state
officials aud legislature. Referring
to the state officials, tho preseut gov
ernor, a democrat, elected by repub
licans, is liable to be renominated.
The state printer, state attorney,
stato superintendent of schools and
state labor commissioner are up for re
election. So far not much opposition has ap
peared to any of these officials. They
are looked upon as giving the people
good and faithful service.
For state printer the names of
Willis Duuuiway and William J.
Clarke have appeared iu the papers
and they have many friends. J. R.
Whitney, the present state printer, is
not opposing any of the proposed re
forms such as putting him on a flut
salary or state ownership.
The promotion of Justice Wolver
tou to the federal judgship makes a
place on the ticket for an Eastern
Oregou ftiau for his place.
The man generally spoken of for
the supreme judgeship is Robert E.
Eakiu of Union county, circuit judge
for the past eight years. He had an
extensive practice aud was first elect
ed in a democratic district, is 55 years
old and is well qualified to go higher.
For governor James Withycombe
and C. A. Johns are prominent candi
dates, wtih T. T. Geer, E. L. Smith
aud II. E. Aukeuy mentioned.
It is conceded that it will require a
mau of great energy, resources and
ability as a campaigner to be elect
ed over Chamberlain.
Tho campaign required to secure a
nomination under the direct primary
law is not fully appreciated by many
of tho aspirants.
To go over a state twice as large as
Illinois and very thinly populated
outside of the northwest portion, takes
time, money aud energy.
Aspirants must have a very wido
persoual acquaintance or use the
nowspapeis freely or circularize the
voters direct.
For treasurer there are as yet no
names prominently before tho people.
Ralph Hoty of the Merchants'
National bank of Portland, aud J. H.
Aithen of the Oregon Commercial
company of Huutiugtou, are mention
ed. -
For secretary of state Marion

In a listless school electiou in Walla

books and the people decided not to
have free text books by the narrow
margin of 18 votes, there being 105
votes against and 87 for the measure.
The total vote cast was 192 and the
vote by wards was as follows :
Favor. Opposed.
First Ward 41 38
Second Ward 12 25
Thi.d Ward - 32 27
Fourth Ward - 10 7
The vote in every ward bnt the first
was against the text book measure.
The defeat of the free book proposition
was in a large measure due to the
vote of 77 women, who registered at
the school clerk's office just before
the election, as many of these votes
registered. with the avowed intention
of shutting out free .text books from
the schools.
