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

Tbey are aa good Republicans and

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."

Death of Florence Johnson
Died In Lakevlew, Oregon, May
21, 1908, Florence, daughter of G. W.
and Dollie Johnson. Aged 5 years,
10 months and 11 days.
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.

All tbe Imperfections of government
cannot be corrected in a day. 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.

Quite a crowd ot fans cume over

The game In the forenoon between
the High School team and the All

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.

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

it is your duty to be at tbe poll

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

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

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.
