Steiwer's nomina tion for joint senator, the Times-Mountaineer says: "Mr. tsteiwer is a mer chant at Fossil, where he has been en gaged in business for a number of years,, and enjoys an excellent reputation. He is thoroughly conversant with the wants of this portion of the state, and the in tetests of Gilliam, Bhermun and Wasco counties will be carefully and conscien tiously considered by bim." The Athena Press (independent) voices the sentiments of this popular weekly exactly, when it says: "We advise the leading lights of the diflerent political parties to see the finance editor of this paper at once on a matter of business that would not do for our readers to know or in other words, somebody has got to "whack np" shortly. We want a brick building and a power press out of this campaign." During our ten years' residence in the West, we have met only four or five per sons from our native county in Pennsyl vania Armstrong.

Thirty-seven new subscriptions this week. The Globb feels proud of the fact that it has nearly four times. more bona fide subscribers in this county than any of its contemporaries, and we have never asked a half-dor.en people to sub scribe for the paper. It makes itself worthy of the hearty patronage it re ceives, Its publisher does not have to beg of the people as if he were in the ag onies of starvation, to get them to take the paper. A paper that has to be forced onto the people, is not worth the price of subscription. As above stated, we are proud that the Globe does not have to force Itself onto anybody. Arlington Antonatlona.

The following persons were elected del egates to the state convention : Geo. W. Rinehart, J. H. Pardons, Josephus Mar tin and P. E. McQuinn. Hon. T. B. Hoover of Fossil was elect ed chairman of the county central com mittee. That the reader may have some idea what the candidates resemble, we will give a brief personnel of them : J. II. Wood, fur representative, is the wide-awake furniture mon of Arlington. He is fully alive to the interests of this section, and would make a good repre sentative. C. A. Shurte, for clerk, is the popular manager and book-keeper for J.W. Smith at Arlington. He U ft young man of ex cellent character and reputation, and is thoroughly competent to discharge the duties of county clerk. W. L. Wilcox, forshevilT, has conduct ed that office so ably and economically during the last two years, that the tax payers st em to le almost unanimous for keeping him where he is. He has made an excellent ofllcial. ' J. R, RaIton, for commissioner, is a prominent and successful fanner and stockman of Ixwe Uook. He i a cart-ful and shrewd financier, and if elected ill serve our people in the umst; comjictent manner. I.. Pirkerof FoU1'', k r If" J ii't.. is our prcHf nt incumbent in that oMice. lie has made an excellent record for himself as an earnest and energetic; worker for the advancement of educa tion. ' . G, L, Neale of Condon, for treasurer, is well and favorably known throfghniit the county as an honest and intelligent young man of excellent habits. He is fully competent to discharge the duties of treasurer. Val Wheeler of Pine creek, for assessor, is so well and favorably known that comment is unnecessary. There isn't a man in the county better qualified for this important office than Val is, and judging from the manner in which he was repeatedly applauded upon his suc cess, it leaves no doubt as to his unmis takable popularity with our people.

School in the upper Lone Rock district began Monday. Ed Coppner went to Heppner on the stage Wednesday.

Lambing is in full blast, the per cent so far being about 80, which is very good considering the cold stormy weather. Monday a Mr. Halverson bought interest in Copner & Co.'s general mer chandise business. This late partner will stiffen np the firm about $2000, thus enabling them to carry a coinpleteittock ; of everything our .good people needs. Work on the Lone Rock and Heppner road will begin next Monday. If the 1000 big hog dollars that were donated is projerly handled and Rvalue received in hard labor on the road instead of in the pockets of a few favorites, a good road will be the result, and the donaters will be satisfied. Cowboy. Germany Gems. Olevia Martin is teaching the school on the head of Tine creek. Sorne new epidemic must have seized the cattle that are enjoying the excel lent grass, of which our productive bills abound so luxuriantly just now. meyj have nearly all become hornless. "Sam Weiler" has evidently got a bad case of it, judging from the 'Tine krick explosions" in latt week's Globe. We imagine if Chas. Huntley were to "sit dowo on him," aided by about 240 lbs of avoirdupois, he would 1 spread out woree than if he'd been welted a jolt by a Kansas cvclone. Like our distingnished namesake "Z;u harv" Tavlor. we want to see the , w candidates come out a little stronger, more visorouslv, as it were. We feci i like shriefcini;: "A little more crape, Cajit.
