Governor Pierce is in a Salem
hospital following an operation
for relief from Rail stones, and it
is expected that he will be unable
to resume office duties for about
two weeks. President Jay Upton
of the senate will perform such
gubernatorial duties as may be
pressing in the meantime.
Yamhill county is in a volcanic
state, socially speaking, on ac
count ol a small scandal in which
Walter Tooze, Jr. is involved, lie
has been indicted for furnishing
whiskey to a girl of 111 years, but
Walter denies the charge and
says it is a frame up in order to
take reprisals on him for his po
litical and other activities.
A dispatch from Washington on
the 2fth, brings news of deep in
terest in matters which have been
widely discussed in Oregon of
late. The message reads:
"The United States supreme
court todav upheld the ancient
principle that a man's home is
his castle,' by restoring to Fred
P. Violeme of Montana, a small
ranch which prohibition agents
had seized and offered for sale
because of charges that Violeme
was operating a still and making
liquor. The lower courts had up
held the seizures.
Violeme denied the charges and
had claimed invasion of his con
stitutional rights by tl e dry of
ficers." lk'ppner papers through dopei
furnished them by smooth, un
scrupulous propagandists, are
publishing articles on the school
unit system, Heppner would like
only too well to shoulder their
hugh school indebtedness upon
outlying districts, and in this

Baker and Kubli Lack Sincerity
L. H. McMahan of Salem, who
has a sneaking idea of running
for United States Senator as an
independent, writes editor C. C.
Chapman of the Oregon Voter,
as follows:
"We might forgive Baker and
Kubli their lack of refinement in
person and character, but not
their laek of sincerity in the eause
of reform. They are unable to
see, as vou evidently do. that
this country is on tbe eve of a
great economic adjustments and
that to make these adjustments
gradually, being neither ultra
radical or ultra conservative, re
quires the steady efforts of men
whose ability and sincerity of pur
pose is superior to theirs. The
greatest evidence of danger is
that men of their kind can be
seriously considered for that of
flee. It would be far more danger
ous to stable government for
them to be elected than for a
Zimmerman to win. I should
think business men would see
this."

two or three points nifference in
the score at any time. Wasco
however, managed to keep the
lead most of the time and nosed
the local boys out by tne smallest
possible margin by a score of 20
to 19. The score was lied 19 to
19 at the end of the game and the
winning point was made on a put
throw after time was called.
