have Recorders-, as separate officers,
and onlv one of these is a Demo

Tiere are now six . Presidential
'ickets in the field. Debs -and
Handford, pf the Social Democratic
ticket, were the first out. The
Prbbibitio&ist were -second in the
field-withlSa-allow and Carroll as
standard-bearers, while later the
nominees of the Populists at
Springfield and the Sooialist Labor
party in New York jo5ned the pro
cession of candidates. These, with
thoregular Republican and Demo
cratic Dominations, cospiete the.
list of. Presidential tickets up to
date. .When it is remembered that
ouiofa total rote of 13,901,5o( in
1900 all but 393,57 were cast for
the Republican and ' Democratic
electors, it is' easy to estimate the
small figure -that the four, minor
parties will cut when th grand
taHy is made up in November.
"tfe notice, by a Portland paper,
that William Reidt, Jate a demo
cratic candidate for some. County
office in Multnomah county, whose
democracy was evidently for reve
nceonly, has experienced one of
these honest changes of political
faith, so-often met with in these
latter days, and gone over to the
republican cam p. FI6pped. Here
now is an opportunity for some
rjpple-tonguea has-been democratic-editor,,
whose intellectual dis
placement is -too infinitestima-1 for
accurate adm-easuremea't,-whose
hk in dodging the fool-killer is
pitnominalj ami whose anxiety to
justify his own- apostasy amounts
toa mania, to unmuzzle himself,
riag ip tho lire j department, do - a
fe Btep3ofthe political - scalp
dance and sing Grod save the -great
republican party until his vocalic
energy shakes the everlasting foun
dations of Mt. Hood. And as Mr.
Ittit is somewhat of a mining ex
pe?h; by way of remumeratiorr for
flapping, Teddy might tender him
the secretaryship of the mining
barenu as soon as that office is cre
ated. Perhaps that is why Port
lafccl politicians are so anxious to
have the nevsr mining bureau in
staHed ir the White house.

James W. Abbott, special a-ent
for the Rocky mountain and- PacN
tic coast divisiou, roid inquiries, of
iU !'.,;,,. c.. .1.,.. . ..e
agncultiwe, is at the Imperial. He
is making arrangements for a good
roads demonstratiou uuder the
supervision of government experts
at Euggne. This will b) the first
sample of good robd.s U be mada
under government auspices on the
Pacific coast, and U therefore
arousing, widespread interest
Some time ago the enterprisiug
citizens of Eugene wrote to the de
partment of agriculture and asked
that the experiment be made, and
MrAbboU was ordered tare in r
spon?e to the request. 'The sample
road will be from half a mile to a
mile iu extent, and of the best ma
aadaoi class. Linn county will
furnish the transportation, and
the road . making machinery con
cerns of Portland will be given op
portunity.to demonstrate their lat
ent machinery. There is. no section
of the United States that does not
need. better reads," said Mr.
Abbott, ."and.; I -suppose Oregon
needs them as much as any other
slate. The people of Eugene have
taken hold of tho matter with great
energy and determination to make
the demonstration a success. The
government's part in the work is
to furnish without charge the ex-,
perts and supervision. If the pre
liminary arrangements can be com
pleted without delay I think we
can begin wotk at Eugene early
th9 .coming week." In Columbia
county we do differently. Instead
of getting a U. S. government man
free, wt heve undertaken to educate
a man, who milks cows, at a salary
of $ 80 per month, by experiment.
In the course of 25 years he will no
doubt have a knowledge of how to
build a practically .good road. Ex
perience - is a good school, but
rather expensive.
Any man can take a new spaper. It is
the cheapest thing he can buy. Every
time a hen clucks and has laid an egg
his paper is paid for that week.,. Itcosta
lees than a postage stamp kss than toj
pay or receive a letter. Itcoraes to you
every week, rain or shine.calm or storm.
No matter what happens it enters your
door a welcome friend, full of sunshine,
cheer and interest. It opens the door of
the great world and puts you face to
face with its people and great events. It
is your adviser, gossipcr and friend. No
man is ju3i to his children who does not
give them the local paper. No' man is
good to himself who does not take news
papers. Junction City, Oregon, Times.
A few day's since we received a copy of
the Great Bend (Kansas) Iienister, Vol.
31, No. 5-.'. Twenty-nine years ago we
took up :the position as devil in this
office: -Having a fair school education,
lt'did nob take long for us to learn the
case and tho rodiments of tho art.- We
went from devil to comoositoT and soon
graduated, and emigrated to Rush Co.
Kansas, to start in business. The Great
Bend Register was always ourmodel for
a newspaper, and it wa the thought of
our first experience in Great Bend that
suggested thenarao'ofOolumbialtegister,
If Oregon people would put in more
time in discussing needed improvements
and allow the "old land marks" irtclud
ing "tho first school houses, etc." to go
their way, the state would be several
years forward in the march of progress.
A few antedeluvian cranks seeiu to have
enthused an overdose of "old" interest
