In the count7unit district (exclusive of the city) a director will be named for a five year term. Harry Wilson, the in cumbent, and Ed Crawford, are the candidates. In the dty two directors will be elected, and the incumbents, Dr L L Truax and J. W. Kerns, are the only candidates. Both are able men and public spirited citizens, and they fhould have a strong complimentary vote, even if theie no opposition. It is not-good that school elec ions should pass with half a dor.en voters going to the polls. A recommendation for revision in Oregon's primary laws t SSrmH ; uninstructed delegates at national poli tick c was passed by the Oregon republican delegatSn at Cleveland. The delegates, as has not been unusual in the past, found themselves confronted with ridicule and impotency. This newspaper, for one, is wearVVseeing Oregon delegations to the national con ventions pledged to impossible candidates. It s just as Hkeb - to happen to democrats as it is to republicans. But trs "to make a sensible change in the primary law, and listen to the yowll Important news to Klamath: Early potato crop esti mates indicate a crop 12 per cent smaller than in 1935. and 27 per cent smaller than the five-year average. The forecast is from the U. S. department of agriculture. It strengthens the belief that potatoes are going to com mand good prices when Klamath's shipping season gets under way next fall. And it makes the old potato act of 1935, which never did have much approval here, look more ridiculous than ever. ' Oregon grangers got a great laugh out of Governor Martin when, speaking at the state convention, ht i pn ed Oregon's products, highways and financial sending, over other states particularly California without know fha roUfnmia. state jrrantre master was sitting behind him on the stage. From the way the governor has been Bpeaking his mind of late, we "rent at all jmre the presence of the California granger would have made .ti?r;o. .vt. had General Martin known about it. Who atato health office has issued a timely bulletin devoted to insect bites. "Don't Scratch" is the major r,'vn victims nf the well-known mosauito and similar insects. Biting insects, the. bulletin says, do not h.iioUv nmducA serious direct injuries. That may be so, but they can be darned nuisances. Wo tint in tha news that an official of the park 6 partment of the state highway commission visited Klam ath Falls Friday. Incidentally, what ever happened to the announced plan of that department to beautify road- siaes on mi mmu luguwnjo ojjiuvovmiis We haven't seen any work going on. Those pictures In today's paper showing four young Klamath women demonstrating the Fourth of July head gear are proof aplenty that Klamath boasts some mighty fine looKing gins. , . If you venture on the highways this week-end, you'd better say a prayer first WASHINGTON NEWS BEHIND TUB NKWS -... .. Tlra Inside Story From The Capital ' Bj PAUL M.iLIX)M Copyright 1S. by Paul Malloa Young Musician CLEVELAND. Juns IS One ot the smartest things tha Lnn- don managcra did was to keep booka meticulously on their cam paign' contribution. They kept themselves ready tor a conirros- stonal Investigation at any time. Perhaps this Is -why no Investi gation has been started. It will come out eventually that they have accepted no cam paign contribution ot mora than $2,600. This is something new In campaign financing. But the most Interesting Tiart of the story will never come ont. That is the one about the chocks they have sent back to big con tributors. Some very wealthy persons whose names are known to everyone have had their well Intended offerings returned with polite note to tha effect that their money was not needed. What the notes meant was their money was not wanted. Note The Landon bookkeep ers say privately that 76 per cent ot the contributions were In donations ot less than 100 each. Tho nature ot the campaign re quired very little money. - PLAY The shrewdest play ot the plat form committee her has been generally overlooked. That was the deep bow mnde to the Town sendites. The old age ponaion feature ot the platform was ac tually one ot its few surprises. What tho initiators of It did was to take the fundamental basis of the Townsond plan and propose to make It workable That is, they promised pensions (no ace mentioned) to aged workers financed by a sales tax. (The platform says only It shall be a broad tax. but what they had in mind was the sales tsx. al though they did not want to use that hated phrase.) The idea, of course, was that Dr. Townsend, In his bitterness against President Roosevelt, will invite his followers to vote the republican ticket. FERVOR To most observers, the cut and dried nature of the proceedings hers seemed unspectacular. On tha surface. It was a dull party rany, as parties ana rallies go. But underneath there seemed to be a religious type of fervor among the delegates, something like that of the grass roots con vention. It was not by any means a sectarian type of re ligion, but rather a moral seal. the energy and Inspiration ot Bryan. For Instance, the delegates seemed to let their lungs expand every time "Onward Christian Soldiers" was played by the band. The hymn typified their feelings. There will be more of that. INSTRUCTIONS Final - Instructions passad around to republican delegates twelve hours before Governor Landon was nominated were eon fined to one telephoned sentence: "Landon on the first ballot. Landon to write the platform The convention to select tha vice presidential nominee." This gives the accurate Inner tone ot the convention In the shortest possible Bpace. It work' ed out exactly that way. Note While Mr. Landon ob jected to certain planks In the platform, his objections are a HORIZONTAL I Brilliant young concert violinist. 12 Heavenly body.

As It stands now. with his amendments, It is sole ly his. e SKCOXD CHOICK The vice presidential nominee was really the choice ot the con vention and not of Ooveruor Landon. It seems that the Landon peo ple and the Knox folks had some personal Inner misunderstandings in connection with , the Illinois primary. Those were largely personal and unimportant, but the two camps did not get along well after that. Also Col. Knox was a close personal friend of Mr. Hoover, and the Landon peo ple consequently did not play pre-convontlon ball with him. The only thing which the Lan don people really had to do with the selection of tho running mate was m killing off a numbor of eastern candidates. There were certain persons In the vice presi dential race they would not stand for. The political generals In con trol here believed that Col. Knox was the second most logical choice. e e AMBITION The stories you have heard about tha Landon people wanting Vandenberg were not overplayed They tried by every means at their command to indue tho Michigander to accept. The real reason he would not seems to have been entirely per sonal. He is young in public life, titty-one years old. His nation al political future Is ahead ot him. He did not want to choose the vice presidential road bo caus he thought It had a dead end. He wants to go places, and It Is very likely that he will. . WILLING Ono vice presidential candidate sont word through a friend to Landon boforo tho balloting that he would accept tho vice presi dential candidacy it asked. The word sent back to . him was that he would not be asked.
