The official count in the May pri mary nominating election completed Wednesday by the County Clerk’s office force leaves R. C. Todd, can didate for county commissioner from Hermiston, 26 votes behind his leading opponent, W. A. Gilliam. Four-hundred and eighty-six reg istrations were recorded on the east side alone in Hermiston and only 318 of those voters cast a ballot at the polls Friday. It would have tak en only 27 of those ballots cast in favor of Mr. Todd to have insured bis winning the commissioner’s race. It is too late now to say what | should have been done, but voters had been urged by this paper and through other sources, to cast their vote at the polls in the May pri- | maries. We now have a candidate 1 for county commissioner in the fall election from Pilot Rock district and a candidate for county judge | from Milton-Freewater, and the west end of the county remains as before, without a representative in the county court. The situation has simply been altered in positions. IT’S SMART TO BUY GOOD SHOES and then Keep them REPAIRED BOWMAN SHOESHOP J. S. Cheshire candidate for coun ty judge of Milton-Freewater re ceived the plurority vote in both Hermiston precincts but the 7 candi- date from the west end received more votes in Pendleton than he did in the east end of the county. The question is, will the race in the fall general election be a certainty? The defeat of Mr. Todd for coun ty commissioner was so needless when sufficient votes could have been cast in Hermiston alone to have put him over the top. you Today.

Among the citations which com prised the Lesson Sermon was the following from tha Bible: “There is one body, nnd one Spirit . . , One God and Father ol ail, who is above all, and through all, and in you all’* (Eph. 4:4, 6). Tho Lesson-Sermon also included the following passage from the Christian Science textbook, “Sci ence and Health with Key to the Scriptures”, by Mary Baker Eddy: “The Science of being reveals man as perfect, even us the Father is perfect, because the Soul, or Mind, of the spiritual man is God, the divine Principle ot all being, and be cause this real man is governed by Soul instead of sense, by the law of Spirit, not by the so called laws of matter” (p.302).
