Let all tba groat govern meats of tba world pane In review tie- fore your mind, and aee If you oau Hud oue of them not governed by peny. iverau any act or your own government since the constitution waa established, which bait hud a Uat Ing lufliiunce upon your country 'a dea (lay aud greatness, tbat waa not tba aot of a political purty, and wherein every name having a living association with it, la not thai of a political parti an. ion-paruuua cannot DoJ one aolntllla of comfort for themselves lo tbelr country 'a history. Geoige E. bamberluln knows all tbla, but thinks yoa do not. Teach him better on aait Monday. A non-partinan never did aocotn pliab anything in Conrgesa, nor never can. Mr. Chamberlain la willfully trlyng to deceive you. Ha if a strong parti nan of tbat school which aver baa leou, and yet la, oppoaed to pruteo tlon. If you are Interfiled in pro tec tlon, vote against him. If yoa ad mire a man who fllea false, deceitful colors, and intenda to act with a par ty with principles Inimical to the In teresta of an Important industry of lake County while holding out to you nn oliva branab, you strike oeuter in voting for Geo. E. Chamberlain. The eveu or first numbers of InUia 'tive and referendum measures on your dallot represent a vote for the nieas urea. The odd, or second uumbers attached to euch measure represent a vote against the measures, as your X may Im attached. The Examiner te lievos that to vote .KM Yes, IHXi Yes, 'Mi Yes, and li.'k Yes, will be proper. We sha:l place our X without fail at the odd, or second numbers attached to each of the other measures. This we believe to bo Our duty, except the four stated, we believe, those meas ures to be of doubtful utility, and most of them pernicious. Me sure to vote No on them. Every uume on the Republican tick et is of a uiun of kuwou merits aud was elucted a candidate by your own free choice. The men composing tho Couuty tick ot, you all know to be of sterling in tegrity, without reprouch us citizens, and uearly all of thorn having olllciul records iu which every act is a credit entry to them. If you bolt this tick et, the fact will como buck -tome duy to plague you, and may be the cause of repeal of tho law by which tho vot ers, and not boused, choose their can didates. We print elsewhero the Keullicuu ticket marked as voted, in every iu stauce, as will be our bullet. ' This we do to show our faith in the action of t he people, our souso of obligation to abide by tho untrammeled decision of the majority. This Is the only true Americanism. The only way purty organizations can be malntulued is to support the par ty's candidates for olllce. Thosa are ur feel lugs aud from having watched closely the result of previous elections, we can say that, at the Republican primaries' two years from now, is a proper time to "get eveu", if you have anything of that kiud to do. The more you try to "square up" by voting ugalust your party's candi dates, the more you will (lud will be doue by others iu the futuia lu the aame way, and the more complex the matter becomes. It uovergets squared iu that way. Fight fur what YOU want lo your party's primaries. If you fall, accept the result as you would have others do If you win, and right for what tba party wants, at the final election. You will thus'be ant lafltd with yourself. Tba people made tbla ticket it Is the choice of the majority or youraelvaa, not toe result r of bargains and trades, nor of boss 41 CI & dictation. To refuse any candidate on this tloket your vote, Is to do what you would not appiove In aoother voter, If the candidate were one you were anxious to elect Ilea Ides, you may, you certainly ill, some future day, bring some friend of yoors, and your party, to defeat, if you refuse support to any of our oandidates, so fairly cboaen. If the people would govern themselves. tbey most staod by every ticket they make. Oregon la the only state on tbla Coast where the people c boons tbelr officers. In all the others the voters do what tbelr masters tell them to do. Home years ago, you were slaves. Now you are free. To earn flee your party ticket it what moat of the old masters would bave you do, Such action it sure to restore them to power, and remand you to bonds, Support the ticket the majority bave made, or be prepared lo future to ao cept tickets made by your old masters. Bave tbe primary law, as yoa only can, by voting for tbe ticket you made undei It Every old dictator In tbe Ktate bas been put out of a job by this law, and Is praying tbat tbe people will discredit be law, by back lug down from what they bave done In tbe primary. ' Not an old boss will stand by tb whole ticket Tbe two greatest in tbe State, the one a Democrat, the other a Republican, are both diacluaimr non Allegiance to any party ticket They say there are no organized parties In Oregon. Yoa know whether you are Republican or Demo crat Tbtre are as pure tickets, com piete or partial, for each party to be voted for next Mcndy a were WVr made. Made by Republican ana Democratic voters respectively. Tbey are aa good Republicans and Democrats as ever lived, and as good men at are in tbe parties. Vote the tickets and save tbe law by which you chose your party's candidates, TO PINP CREilK B RAIL FROM LAKEVIEW Piled. at Salem For This Line To Be Built Tbe following from the Portland Oregonian of May 20, wld be interett log to Lake County people who bave watched tbe trend of railroad talk tbe past few moo tba: "Harriman Interests will build railroad from Lakevlew south to tbe atate line, a distance of IS ml lea. Amended articles of Incorporation of the Oregon Railway Company will be tiled at Salem today, In which tbe In tention of tbe company to construct this Una will be aet forth. . . . Tbe projected toad will be a branch of tbe Oregon Eastern, aod will run In a aoutberly direction from Lake- view, east of Gooee Lake, to tbe Cal ifornia line. Tbe country to be trev ersed is easy for construction work, it being level for the most part A recoaaoiaanoe baa been made by ear veyors for tbe railroad company. It Is expected construction of tbe road will be began daring tbe coming sea eon. Whether this line will be built for tbei aoutn la California cannot now be learned. It Is considered likely that this will be done and a connec tlon made with tbe Southern Pacific or tbe Central Pacific.' If this Is ac complished, it Kill mean the draining of tbe traffic of interior Oiegon to Han Francisco at tbe expense of Portland."

With bushed voices word went from lip to Up last Sunday afternoon that "Little Florence is dead". Every face was saddened, every eye was full of tears. While her death was expect ed daily, still while there was life there was hope, and this hope was clung to by tbe parents and friends even to the last Preparations were being made for a trip to,California as a last resort. Every one in tbe community loved, and felt an interest in this little oue; day after day went up the silent prayer ; 'Not here. O Denth, not here, i It there no other flower for thee to take? All the world is thine, and for its sake i Oh I Come uot here". But alus, "Death loves a shining mark" and so it cume. The funeral service was held at tho Methodist Church at 3 P. M. Monday 1 conducted by the Pustor of tho church. Many of tho relatives aud i friends of the sorrowing family were present, and as they looked upou the sweet, placid little body in its tiny uUHket aud surrounded by beautiful aud fragruut tlowers yet not more beautiful or puvo than the little face withiu their hearts swelled iu sym pathy for the bereaved family. But let us uot think of little Florence as dead, but ns living; not as a flower that bus withered, but as one that, transplanted, and touched by a Divine bund, is blooming lu richer color aud tweeter f ragrauce than those of earth. The suiishiue of love could not warm her life nor the affection of foud pareuts keep her from droopiug. She was ever frail, aud the tender care for yeurs for the fev brief years of her life made necessary by hrill health, made her eveu more dear to her foud parents. But she is at rest. purest Angela guard her Sunday 'a Ball Qames Tbe ball game last Sunday between the Bid well team and tbe Lakoview team waa one of tbe hardest fought battles on tbe Lakevlew diamond for a long time. Both teams played bard and contended vigorously for the technical points, when plays were close. Bldwell won by a margin of one tally, and tbe game ended with Lakevlew at tbe bat with a man on third base and one on second. Tbe slightest error on tbe part of Bldwell would bave lost the game for them. Tbe score was five to six Following is tbe line up and scote. B1DWELL R B1I E Wallace, rf Ill L.

Gov ernments grow, and. If they are to advance, tbey are of very alow growth. Like tbe human body, however, tbey may be very seriously injured by a single error, and suddenly collapse. The conditions mast be studied pa tiently, and remedies applied cau tiously. There are so many new prin ciples of government involved in the variout initiative bills upon which you are to pass next Monday, it it impossible that yoa shall have care fcliy digested them. Yoa know tbe evils, but, yoa may create others much more grevious In applying remedies tbe entire effect of which yoa do not foresee. It Is safest -to vote down nearly all of theee measures. Let them be submitted hereafter, one or two at a tii, o that It may be possible far them to be ttadied and understood. Tbe changes wbicn seem beat, may prove moat disastrous. It is far better to vote for one yoa have digested tnorugbly, and in tbe future take op another. Do not reck lessly make inconsiderate changes. Tbe evils oreated by hasty attempts at reform may be far greater than those from which we now suffer.

Tbe Lakevlew team will visit Bid well a week from next Sunday and try to regain their championship. Quite a crowd ot fans cume over from Bidwoll to see the game, and it is expected tbat a large crowd will go from here to return tbe visit. The game In the forenoon between the High School team and the All Stars was an exceptionally good game. An overwhelming majority of Ore gon s voterc by registration nave formally declared that they believe in tbe principles of tbe Republican Party. Let them now show that they are honest by voting in accordance with tbelr declarations. The Oregon election comes before tbe Republican National Convention. Let every Republican voter in the First Con gressional District uphold the honor of tbe Republican Party in Oregon and strengthen the influence of Ore gon's delegation in the National -Convention by voting for II. M. Cuke for United State Senator and W. C. tiawley for Representative in Con gress. 11 eitner 01 inese nominees iau of election, tbe primary election sys tem will bo discredited and a return of boxs rule will be invited. The good name of Oregon's voters will be smirched and Oregon's delegation to the National Conventiou will be placed in a humiliating position. For tbe effect it will bave on tbe Novem ber election it is imperative that all the Republican nominees iu the Juue election shall be elected by au over whelming majority. As a believer lu the principles of the Republican party it is your duty to be at tbe poll June 1st and to vote for Cake aud Hawley. Hymeneal Mr. 8. W. Miller and Miss Martha E. Henderson were married in Lake view Monday, May 25, 1908, by Judge Daly. A marriage license was issued for Mr. J as. L. Freemau and Ifla Corum, of Silver Lake on tbe 23d of this mouth. Elijah Smalley and Miss Pearl A. Hartzog were married at Pine Creek last Sunday, May 21, 1908 Both young people are well and favorably known throughout Goose Lake valley, and their many friends wish them a long life filled with happiness. O 'Neil at Pine Creek on Saturday morning, waa received In Lakeriew a few boars after the aged pioneer breathed his last Bat few people knew of his verioas illness, and In fact bis illness covered but a few days. For many months he bad suffered from abceea of the stomach, one ab cess following another, until finally one broke into a blooa vessel, distrib uting tbe poisonous contents through the system, ceasing death in a short time. Mr. O'NeiL being a pioneer mem ber of tbe A. O. U. W., preparation was at once made for tbe Lakevlew Lodge to assist tbe Pine Creek Lodge In tbe funeral. A large crowd, mem bers of tbe order and friends of the family left here early Sunday morn ing to attend the funeral, at Pine Creek at 11 o'clock A. .M .The Rev. Mr. Smith preached tbe funeral ser mon at tbe First Church of Pine -Creek. The house was filled with, mourning friends and many unable to find standing room within, stood out side the church. The- A. O. U. W. took charge of the remains after tne sermon aad conducted the funeral, paying tbe last sad rites at the grave. Poet nor artist has ever been able to portray the grave in colors of brightness and beauty. Bryant, In tbe "Hymn of Death," could not make the subject beautiful ; and yet the cemetery with its marble and its dead, the chair tbat bas no oc en pant, the fancied echo of the silent voice, and tbe vacant place In home, social and lodge life, are mellowing andjup- lifting in their influence. Tbey bring the best of human nature into me xouness 01 vigor, crowaing caca the selfishness and imperiousness of . men, and impressing them with the duty of recognition of tbe value of friendship. It is the gloom of the church-yard tbat reveala to ns more dearly the beauty of life It is the hrnbnn Has at tha mvn that nrnmnfi us to a fuller appreciation of tbe tenderness of the ties tbat are not ' yet broken ; and so while we mourn the loss of our dead we may rejoice tbat there is no cloud so dark tbat there is no light behind it, no sorrow so poignant that there is not a balm for the wound it inflicts. One of the first settlers in Goose Liake valley, was John O'Neil. When General Crook took charge of the Military forces in the Lake County, Mr. O'Neil came with him in charge . 1. I- . : j 1 1 ui ing iuu& iruiu, uiiu ri'ui'ueu uniu Warner in July, 1808. The party stopped at camp Warner for a time, and then proceeded through Goose Lake valley to Fort Crook, in Califor nia. Mr. O'Neil waa again in charge of tbe pack train tbat accompanied the soldiers. After General Crook left for Arizona, Mr. O'Neil returned to Goose Lake Valley aud settled near tne state line, early in inoii. John O'Neil was married to Miss Xitnnie Kitzgerald, who survive! ber husband. Four children also survive him, Mrs. M. P. Barry, Miss Etta O' Neil, John and Jim O'Neil, tbe sons and eldest daughter are married. Deceased was C4 years of age. Examiner sympathizes with tbe reaved family. Tbe b- Wool Market Opened Andrew II. Mclnnes, the Northern California agent of the Findley Com pauy, today opeued the Tehama wool market by the purchase of a total of C80 bales, represen ting perhaps a half of tbe total clip now in storage in Red Bluff. Mr. Molnnea is perhaps tbe shrewdest buyer in the busioess and the action he has taken indicates very clearly a loosening of the purse string and other deals may be looked for immediately. The price was uot stated but is understood to be better than 13 cents. Red Bluff Sentinel.
