This was no doubt on account of the , political campaign being waged for the offices of Senator and District Attorney in this district The "Citizen's ticket" as named at the mass meeting held the previous week at Armory Hall was elected without any op position, although a few scatter ing 'votes were cast for other persons for the office of mayor. , In all there were only 71 votes cast which goes to show that few took interest in the election. The ticket as elected is: N. Farnsworth, mayor; J. A. Scott R. E. Myers and J. W. Hire, councilmen for two years; J. C. Hardman, councilman for one year.

B. Bourhill against the editors of the Sher man County Observer1. Judge Bourhill has retained the three leading attorneys of Moro, Messrs. Meindl, Bryant, and W. H. Ragsdale, and W. II, Wilson of The Dalles, to prosecute the cases against the Observer' people. Last Saturday, April ,11," Dis trict Attorney J. A. Collier filed an information, which under the Oregon law is equivalent to an indictment, against James Stewart of the Fossil Journal for criminal libel alleged to have been committed against Jay Bowerman, his political boss and benefactor. A bond of $1,500 had been fixed by Judge Little- field on March 30th 1908, twelve days before the information was filed. "When it became known that we were indicted by Collier, says the editor of the Fossil Journal, "six of our leading citi zens and temperance workers came to our office and signed the bond, and would have signed just as cheerfully for $15,000 as they did for $1,500." .

The work of the excavating for the big Catholic school which will be built in Condon this sum mer, was started last week and will be pushed to completion as rapidly as possible.
