OFFICIAL PAPER TOWN OF LEXINGTON Subscription, per year, - $1.00 Advertising rates on Application Entered as second-class matter October 6, 1905, at the post office at Lexington, Or egon, under the Act cf Congress of March 3, 1879. THURSDAY APRIL 12, 1906. A representative of the Pendleton Tribune was in Lexington yesterday soliciting orders for job work from our merchants. We understand that he made the assertion that we could not do good job work because we did not have the presses to do good work, and that our prices were too high. We use the same kind of presses, inks, type and stock as used by the Tribune. It is true our presses were second hand and so was the Tribune material and presses when they purchased from the Baker City Herald. We are not ashamed to place pur work alongside of their work, and we believe our price compares favorably with theirs. It is needless to state that he failed to con nect with orders here, and lost sub : scribers for his paper by his abuse of The Wheatfield. Ernest G. Rice, traveling salesman for the American Type Founders Co., spent a few hours with the Wheatfield man last Friday. We knew Ernest in 1901 when he was office boy for the firm he now represents. A close appli cation to business and never loosing sight of the company's interests has been a great factor in the rapid rise of this young man. It has been a pleas ure to us to watch this advancement. W. O. Hill, Candidate for county clerk, was in Lexington Saturday last. Mr. Hill says he is well satisfied with his prospects and thinks the voters will give him a nice majority over his opponents. LOCAL NEWS " He who has no patience with chil dren has no power with men.
