The convention will not accept John

Clipped Here and There
When the various county courts of
Oregon meet to pay the hill for the
primary election this month thev will
lirid that the item of furnishing ballots
will be one that will have mounted
considerably in price Fince last time.
The chief cause of this is. of course.
the cost of paper of the quality of
which ballots are ordinarily printed;
anoui uouoie wnat it was two years ago
And another thing has to be taken into
consideration: The law provides that
he Democratic primarv ballots must
be printed on blue paper. This is un
obtainable in any of the papers which
are ordinarily used m ballot printing
and the only paper which can be had in
tins particular color is in the bonds.
which are the highest priced papers on
t he market.
The Dispatch tried every paper house
in Portland m an effort to tret enough
blue book paper for the Democratic
allots for Wasco county, but the same
reply came from all, "We haven t got
it and can t get it.
Oh, well! Such is life when you get
used 10 u. wuiur utspatrh.

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
The Farmer's Truck
The Ford One-Ton Truck may well be classed as an
agricultural necessity, it fits into and fills so many wants on
the farm. It is a reliable bearer of farm burdens, not only
doing the work of several horses quicker and better than the
horse, and does not ''eat its head off" when not working. The
aggressive farmer has only to consider the possibilities of the
Ford truck and he is ready to buy one. We judge this to be
so from the way farmers are buying them.
