How is the Bull Moose nartv goina to reconcile its cardinal platform plank "Thou shalt not stel" with its avowed intention to choose in every tate where it can be done, so-called republican electors who are pledged to cast thier vote In the electoral col lege for Colonel Roosevelt running on a third parry ticket? Is it strictly ethical for a pary that la busing its appral to the people on tho commandment, "Thou shalt not stel" to profit bv the votes of men who are masquerading under the col ors and name of the party that it has expressly condemned and cast off? Is it in accord with the spirit of the commandment "Thou shalt not steal" to stack the 'deck against an opponent? For if the Bull Moose party succeeds in uledsing republican electors to cast their ballots io the electoral college for a man who is not the choice of the republican nary, the republican voter will be playing agairst a stacked deck. He will be bucking a surething came. He will be conifonted with the alternative of votirg for an elector who is pledeed not to carry out his will; or of not voting at ail. Ha will thus 1"! bis vote if he does, and will In; f. ho does not. The elector is bound by an irm ten pledere to naet his Plectc&i n-,l'os for the candidite.cominatec! by hi 4 p;.it. Is he-fccting in the fpirit of thd com- j -rrtundmont "Thou snait not steal whan he breaks that pledge? A few years :: there was an effort here in Oregon to induce state legislators to break their Statement Oue pledee, which is essentially similar to the elector's pledge. Was that consider ed an ethical procedure? Or was it not condemned with a violence that was measured onlv by the limits of the condemners' vocabulary? Can it be that the plank "Thou shalt not stal" ia tut a fly-batcher sct out to gather in votes. Ejgeue Register. The Republican National Committee will divide the conutrv into four parts, for the forthcoming eampaian The Pacific Coast h ariquarters ill be in Portland, Ralph E. Williams havins charee. He is a well known Oregon organizer. Considerable the lancor that followed the close of ihe Chicago convention, is wearing out and during the next few months, it is believed that the campaign will settle down to a straight out inane as between the Repubilran and Demo cratic candidates. Should a third can didate enter the field, it is not believ ed that he will cut much cf a figure and the support that he gets will be drawn about evenly from each state Charles D. Hilles until recently sec retary to President Taft, has beet chosen national chairman. At thfc time, Republicans believe they have a chance to carry fonr Southern states namely Maryland, Knetuekv, Tenn rssee and Missouri. Mr. H. H. CoheD, the gerial cron statistican and commercial editor of the Oregon Journal was in Condon this week and made us a Dleasaut call. He hai been all over these three coun ties writing up crop conditions for his publication. Mr. Cohen's estimate of Gilliam county's grain exports this fall i3 4, OCO ,000 bushels aud he has not over estimated, as we are suing to have an enormous crop. We insured some wheat this week that will make all of 40 bushels to the acre and per haps more. Weather conditions are ideal, and numbers of harvest hands are coming in every evening. . Let them come, there will be jobs for all and to spare. In another couple of weeks or ten days harvest will be general all over the county and no man need be idle that really wants to work. Condon limes. We rejoice with our Gilliam County neighbors over this splendid crop showing. They are entitled to it. Morrow county is not behind either and will deliver the greatest crop of wheat io ita history. All we need is a few years of what these counties are to turn off this season. Now if the proper time to be mak ing selection of grains, for the Fall fairs and care should be exercised in preparing the grains in bundles of proper dimension!. It will pay to taki a lutle lime for this and get gra.iiR with uniform heads and length of straw. It shoold be made uo In brndUs measuring about five inches around and carefully ti d and labeled. AH camples should bn delivered to Judue C 0. Patterson, aeoretarv of the Booster Club and he will care for them until thu time for their shipment to the fairs. All interested ptrties can receive further information by calling on or addressing the Secretary at Heppner. Don't pass this uu for Morrow county must have a proper showing at the fairs and land ehowa. There is not a better way to adver tise our resources. There ia a $300(1 prize to be carried off by some local ity in the Northwest: Morrow conuty has always stood at the head n the grain contests at world's fairs and county fairs and it shonld stand a gocd chance to get this prize this sea son. Heppner's streets are getting mighty dusty, especially Main street, and thn nuisance is almost, intolerable when the wind blows, even slightly. Just why the water-wagou has jumped the job, this paper does not know, unless it is a sort of a holtl-np same. The city is not ready with their water yet for this pupose, and it is begin ning to develoD that they will not likely have enough water from the well recently dug. In the meantime a number of the business men are be coming very much interested in the proposition to oil the streets if it is found that the experiment can be car ried out without too much expense. Many believe that the oiling of the streets will settle the dust pru'ulem. as well as kill off the weeds and grass that grows along the edges of the walks and becomes such a nuisa nce. At all events let something be done just as soon as possible for thert s a slight possibility that the whole towu may be buried rtikh w'th tie dost if relief riot s not come.' FROM OVER THE STATE. CVnui unity spirit was demons'rated to a remarkable extent by Oregon cities at the recent TJkls convention in Poralnd. This was one of tiio most notable features of the gathering. The various places where Elks lodges exist made a surprisingly good show !ns in the big Elks parade that opened wide the eyas of Portland and of the visitors. Those who have beleved Oregon to be a state with one city changed their minds when they saw the parade ;and the long column of Elks from the four cornors of the state sweep along Port land's streets. The active support of the state cities made the parade the big success it proved. The occasion further proved how much Portland relies on its friends in the interior in accomplishing any really big thing Tillman Reufer. who makes train grow on the Ftnui-arid lauds of Cen tral Oregon where none grew before, does net want any one to overlook the forthcoming International Dry Farm ing Congress to be held at Lethbridge, Alberta.

Soouring Interior Orpgnn, picking ut the best routes for a flvirg squad ron of automobiles that will make the run to Lakeview late in August for the convention of the Central Ore gon Development Leagne, is a party of men intersted, headed by C.

Everv dis trict of the Northwest baa an oppor tunity in this "dirt show" for valu able exploitation.

Rrlgnoli. the famous Italian tenor, always expected hu encore, 110 matter where or what he snug, iind If It wus not. forthcoming he was off In a rnge Instantly. In some small town be sang his ftivorlle Hong, "Com e (ietitil." n seivnude from Donizetti's "Don Pint quale." with unusual cure and walked off the stage perfectly satisfied, pa us ing at t lie wings to listen to the up plause. To his utter iininzcmeiit there was not n sound of iippi'oliaiion. lie strode Into the dressing room mutter ing that he would not respond to an encore: he would refuse to slug an other song. Still the house remained silent. "No." be died to those about him; "I refuse to sing agulu. I refuse to respond to the pucore." Rarhagelata, who was more clever than the ordinary servant, humbly ap proached and said: "Signor Brignoll, you snng that like an tingel. The people could not appre ciate it." The old fellow nearly wept. "Harliagelaiu," he exclaimeif. "give me your hand. 1 did not kuow you were such a musician. Taglhipletra. I must Introduce you to Barbagelata, my servant." turning lo "Tag." who Rtood uenr by. "Me Is a great miislchtu." went on Krignoll, still in n temper, "lie appreciates my slugiug more than all those fools." INSTANT DEATH. It Is Not So Quick but That the Mind Has Time to Act. It Is questionable If such n phenom enon us Instant death Is known to the scientist und Investigator. Physicians and surgeons tell us that dentb by kud shot wound Is the easiest mode of terminating life; yet, rapid as sucb a mode of taking off must necessarily be, the body has leisure to feel and time to reiU'cf fiiiij . !j rare occasions even to net, Ou fit! fiit nftempt of one of the adUr'.vtifa of she Spanish monarch to nsm 'simile William, prince of Orange, tho Lall passed through the bones of his face and brought him to the ground. In the Instant which preceded stupe faction, however, be was able to frame the notion that the celling of a room bad fallen In and crushed hitn. Another question In this connection Is that of probable pain. Although nu merous Instances could be cited In support of the view that the mind acts In .cuses of so called instant death. It by no means follows that the Infliction of a fatal blow is attended by the least semblance of pnln or a single pang of feur or regret. Unless death results immediately, however, the paiu may be as varied as tbe nature of the In juries. Winning a Fur Coat. Tbe artist Hans Canon once paint ed a Husshin prince lu a miiKuitlcent fur man tie wbicb took his fancy so greatly that be endeavored to bit on a plan by wbicb be might retain posses sion of it. On sending home tbe por trait he omitted to return the garment, and to the letter requesting blm to do so be made no reply. One day when looking out of a window be saw the prince coming toward his bouse, nas tily slipping Into tbe garb. Canon sat down In an armchair near the tire. The prince, who bad come for bis coat, starred on seeing Canou groaning and trembling at tbe fireside. "What Is the" matter with you?" he asked. "Oh." groaned Canon. "1 don't know what it is, but 1 feel so weak and wretched, and I cannot get warm. Two days ago my brother died of smallpox, aud I am a bit nervous about myself." The artist kept tbe coat. Disdrich Knickerbocker. It may be that a Dutchman named Knickerbocker did live in the early history of New York, but if he did there are no records extant to prove It Tbe truth Is, the name was created by Washington Irving, who applied It to all residents of New York In bis time who happened to be descended from the early Dutch settlers. Irving used this quaint Dutch character lu bis "Knickerbocker History of New York" to burlesque the early days of the city. The volume purported to have been tbe work of , Dledrich Knickerbocker and gnve nn amusing and satirical ac count of tbe early Dutch settlers. Rec ords of the period tell us that tbe book bitterly offended their descendants, who never forgave Irving for his fling at them. New York Tlmea. Boiled Oysters. In "Social Life In tbe Reign of Queen Anne" Swift writes to Stella. "Lord Masbam made me go borne with blm to eat boiled oysters," and then be obligingly adds tbe recipe: "Take oys ters, wash tbem clean that Is, wash their shells clean; then put your oys ters In an earthen pot with tbelr hol low side down; then put this pot, cov ered. Into a great kettle of water and let it boll. Your oysters are then boiled In their own liquor and do not mix with water." A Leading Question.
