The Retiring County Officials.
Sheriff Rogers having turned
the keys of office over to Elmer
Montague, is again a private cit
izen. He has not yet. decided
what he will do in the future,
but at present is with his mother
atCorvallis. It is probably with
in the bounds of truth to say
that Gilliam County never had a
sheriff who combined fitness with
popularity to a - greater extent
than Ray Rogers. We have had
some good sheriffs too. Johnson
filled this difficult office with
high credit, and Sanderson was
an especially good official. But
some way Rogers seemed to 3uit
more people and to discharge his
official duties in a more satisfact
ory manner. He took great in
terest in his wt-rk. He has been
courtesy itself yet firm in the
discharge of his duty. We do
not doubt but what if he had ask
ed for the office again he could
have had it without an effort.
The democrats could scarcely
have afforded to refuse the nom
ination and no republican could
have run within forty rod3 of
him. In retiring from office Mr.
Rogers will have the hearty good
will of all Gilliam County and
wish that health and prosperity
may attend him all his days.
Another official who retired
from office the first of the year
is County Judge Dunn. At the
time Mr. Dunn announced his in
tention of declining renomina
tion, the Globe, as a public or
gan, thanked him for his untiring
efforts in behalf of the welfare
of Gilliam county during the past
eight years. At the same time
we gave a report of the condi
tion of the affairs of the ct-unty
at the beginning of his term of
office and also of their condition
at the time he declined renomin
ation; which report reflected un
limited credit upon the official
guidance of Mr. Dunn. Further
comment is unnecessary at this
rime sufficient to say that Mr.
Dunn is deserving of unstinted
thanks from every taxpayer in
Gilliam County.
From the timi of his appoint
ment by the County Court to
fill the position made vacant by
the resignation of B. T. Snell,
C. C. Clark of Arlington has
served the citizens of Gilliam
County in a manner that is
worthy of commendation, and he
will be remembered as one who
looked to the interests of the
many rather than the interests
of the few. ,
Ninety-five cities in this coun
try are now reported as having
adopted the commission form of
government. There may be
some in which it has not given
satisfaction, though as yet we
have heard of no such instance.
On the whole it certainly approxi
mates the ideal method. No
method springs perfect from the
devisor's brain, but must pas3
the ordeal of application to reveal
its weak points as well as its
strong ones. But the experi
ments thus far vindicate tbe plan
as excelling at every point any
and all methods heretofore em
ployed for the government of
municipality.
Montana, the home of Clark,
and Daley and Thomas H. Cart
er, is now to join the ranks of
the progressive and follow the
nolitical lead of Oregon. Gov
ernor Norris has sent a message
to the Montana Legislature in
"Oregon Plan" for electing
United States Senators. If half
the reports published about the
political history of Montana are
true, then it is time that state
started a reform movement by
Adopting progressive systems of
Government, whereby the people
can speak for themselves.
The merchant who does not
advertise is either ashamed of
his wares or ashamed of himself.
In either case it is well for tue
buying public to leave him alone:
At a meeting of the County
Court of Wheeler County this
month P. P. Tetty was declared
a county charge, says the Journ
al, and was authorized to take a
bath and have hi3 hair cut.
Some generosity to that.
We might call attention to one
fact that the regular readers of
THE GLOBE ore well aware of,
but newcomers may not have no-ticed-you
will never find in these
columns any patent medicine ads,
unless, perchance, some of our
home druggists put up standard
preparations, the ingredients of
which are no secret and are not
harmful. Such headlines as
"Asleep at the switch," "Died
in the night," An awful death,"
and such like cheering inform
ation are never found in these
columns never were, never will
be. And ve say it with a good
deal of pride, particularly when
we see some of our contemporar
ies using these ads to fill up their
editorial space.
Oregon found a brick in its
Christmas stocking when the
reclamation apportionment was
announced, giving this state but
?925,000 to carry on uncompleted
irrigation projects cut of the
appropriation of $20,000,000,
despite the large contribution of
Oregon to the reclamation fund
The Oregon Development League
and Portland Commercial Club
have taken joint action to secure
are-apportionment, so that this
state may secure its just share to
continue reclamation work.
This is the season of the year
when our farmer friends have
the spare time to discuss, thru
these columns any and all mat
ters that concern the rural pop
ulation. Why not take a hand
in such discussions and utilize to
the advantage of the farming
class the free space allotted to
you in the Globe without money
and without price. The farmers
of Gilliam county are intelligent
and are just as capable of hand
ling questions that concern agri
culture as our city people are to
discuss social, moral, political
and municipal questions. Take
a try at it anyway and help to
advance the material prosperity
of the field and farm section of
the county.

A GOOD POSITION
Can be had by ambitious young
men and ladies in the field of
"Wireless" or Railway Teleg'
raphy. Since the eight-hour law
became effective, and since the
Wireless companies are estab
lishing stations throughout the
country, there is a shortage of
telegraphers. Positions pay be
ginners from $70 to 190 per
month, with good chance of ad
vancement. The National Tel
egraph Institute of Portland, Or

vision of R. R. and Wireles Offi
