Harney News seems to hit the nail aqaurely upon the head ; JSu on who hns given the Bnhjcct proper thought will regret the absence of a public Chrittums tree in Harney this year. The time w as, perhaps, when a celebration of Christmas after this fashion was as appropriate as it was commendable, but not so now. The evident object Bought in thin mode uf observance in the years gone by was to plfHKe the little ones. lUit modem cus tom dictates differently. Only R com paratively few of the children are now privileged to gather fruit from a public Christmas tree. The gifts that are given and received nowa-days from a tree are mostly between grown up people. And a public treo only presents a public dis play of what the rich can do and what the poor cannot do. Jow, those who are abundantly able to make costly pres ents to their children or their friends, and feel like doing it, Bhould by all means make them; but to make a pul- iic display of them to a houseful of poor people is wrong. We have witnessed such displays with feelings of disijnst many times! One little child receives from' a tree a gold watch or silk dress, and its fair but poor companion, who sits bv its side, gets a scanty sack of candv." Whose svui pat by would not go out to that poor child? For reasons here given, and for many more that might he enumerated, we are oopoaed to the modern public Christmas tree. choice by separating dates for vorious offices by putting . them ! monev, not necessarily fortunes; them under a party heading ; in-, but h g) tfaat tfa wUl be stead of under the , heading of the lf ting. Dont conie here office for which they are running. The voters of San Francisco showed the most conscientious spirit in their voting. They went through the list of nearly four hundred candidates with a care that could not have been expected. Even on school directors there were nearly 500,000 crosses stamp ed. If every man who expressed a j choice at all on school director voted for twelve this would mean that over 40,000 voters made a choice on this office. As many did not vote for the full number it is pretty certain that above 50,000 voters stamped their choice for the school board. Over 530,000 crosses were marked for free-holders an office in which few are supposed to feel an interest. If every voter who had a choice among candidates voted for the full number of fifteen this means that over 35,000 voters expressed their choice on this office. But as many voted for lets than the full number it is probable that over 45,000 voters took part in se lecting these officials. The system it is plain puts the choice of offi cials on those who feel an enterest in the office. , Those who do not care who is elected governor pass the office in voting. The theory on which straight tickets are sometimes given the preference on ballots is that the people do not have the interest or intelligence to pick out officials for themselves, and turn this duty over to the various conventions. The voters then decide which con vention did its work most to their satisfaction. This arrangement may be necessary in some places, but not in San Francisco. It is the testimony of the election officers that there were few straight tickets voted in the late election. to be supported we are not a poor house, but come with enougn to settle upon. and improve the mil lions of acres of the fine govern ment land; divide up our farms into orchards, and smaller wheat fields, or perhaps better still, with money for manufacturing.

Dear Sir: To aid me in completing pending negotiations for the completion of a portage railroad around the dalles and a line connecting steamers, it is necessary for me to show that the traffic tributary to Columbia and Snake rivers is sufficient to pay the expense of their operation and interest on the invest ment. For this purpose I would ask you to furnish me the statistics, and where these are lacking; agricultural, stock, mineral, fruit and miscllaneous; your estimates of the quantity and de scription of all prod nets produced in your county in 1894, naming tons or bushels. Also the number of tons of commodities or freight shipped into yonr connty per annum.

Y., says : " Over thirty years ago, I remember hearing my father describe the wonder ful curative effects of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. During a recent attack of I Grippe, which assumVd the form of a catnrrh, soreness of the lungs, accom panied by an aggravating cough, I used various remedies and prescriptions. While some of these medicines partially alleviated the conghtng during the day, none of them aiTorded me any relief from that spasmodic action of the lungs which would seize mo tho moment I attempted to lie down at night. After ten or twelve such nights, I was Nearly In Despair, and had about decided to sit up all night In my easy chair, and procure what sleep I could In that way. It then oc curred to me that I had a bottle of Ajer'a Cherry Pectoral. I took a spoonful of this preparation in a little water, and was able to lie down without coughing. In a few moments, I fell asleep, and awoke in the morning greatly refreshed and feeling much better. I took a teaspoonful of the Pec toral every night for a week, then grad ually decreased the dose, and in two weeks my cough was cured." Ayer's Cherry Pectoral Prepared by Dr. J.C.

The present arrangement puts together all the candidates for each office, and the voter has only to follow them down and stamp his choice at each. Under the party column arrangement the 50,000 voters who waut to vote a mixed ticket would have to hunt all over the ballot to i find their men and thus save the 10,000 "straight voters" the trouble of going once through the list. The ballot law is all right. The .only trouble is in the count. It is (Undoubtedly desirable to lessen 4he labors of the voters and the .size of the ballot by cutting down the number of offices a measure that would also shorten the time of the count. But the arrangement of the names on the ballot is the best that can be had, and the legis lature should keep its hands off that part of the law. Mr. Ira 1'.
