CltOCKIIt, of New York, has won an
important political trick from David It.
Hill, In having the delegation Iroin llt.it
state to the national democratic enliven -
Hon instructed for llryan.
IT looks as II the Hocrs don't know
when they are whipped. This lack of
perception lias been the salvation ol some
people, but it will probably not serve the
South African Dutch to that extent.
I.OONI-Y'S vole hi Siimpter, where the
Mine Mountain American is supposed to
circulate, den slrales the inlliience of
that noisy uutlit. Tile people of this tow n '

or town that plays the political game on
the su.uaie, enacts the role ol a sucker.

'Wli stop the piess to announce" that ,
Sumpter is going to have the gieatesl
I'outth ol .lulvielebi.ition in the history
ol eastern Oregon aiidth.it everybody,'
together wllh his sster, his cousins and
his aunts, are cordially invited to be here
on that auspicious occasion.
No Idei o the political complexion of
Maker county tan be gained by an
analysis ol Hie vote cast Monday. Sec
tional trieudships and anamosiili-s and
the personal popul.uity ol candidates dc
tided the contest. I. veil the miicli ills
cussed pioblein ol how the large uuiuhr
ol new cornels to bumptei would devlde
political is still unsolved.
IN the senate Monday .Morgan made a
report, traveislng Hie grounds lor the
abiogation ol the Clavtou-Hulwet tieaty.
The lepott Is pi.ictlcilly a plea tor the
house comiiiittee ol the Mcaiagua c.iual
bill. .Morgan says II the treaty stands In
the way ul the pulpites ol our govern
ment, it must give way to the paiamount
law ol the house bill enacted Into a statute
ol the United States.
ONLY one vote was cast against the
anti-liiist bill passed by the lower house
ot congress Satuidav ; Maun ol lllin
. i
0s,
a lepublicau, voting in the negative. All
the democratic amendments, except one,
vvete killed. I hat one declares that
nothing in the act shall be construed to
apply to Hade unions or labor organiza
tions. I he bill amends the anti-trust
law so as to dec lire every contract oi com
bination in Hie torm ol a trust or con
spiracy In the resii.tlut ot commerce
among the states or foreign nations

' 'I III: Western Mining World gives
these reasons why a mining property
should be patented: "It is always busi
ness, and usually necessary to secure a
I United States patent to a mining location
1 The possession of suih a title argues pow
erfully for (lie owner's belief in the value

axiom that few mines can hy claim to
real greatness or value until or unless it

property, and in sucli likely case a United

SUMPTI.R seems ipilet now, compared
to what It was two months since. The i
rsll' mr this is that Hie crowd that then
i mronged the streets, hotels and resorts

mining. 'I his Is as it should be. These

future and permanent prosperity of this
'camp, hverv dav reports reach here that
' their labors are being crowned with sue-
