They voted by two and one-half to one against the proposed formation o f a PUD in the county in the election held last Friday. , The overwhelming vote by which the issue was decided should quiet the clamor for a change in the local electrical set-up for many years, although we suspect that the advocates of public power in the federal government and other places will keep the public power agents on the lower levels agitating for a change. Malheur residents and the Idaho Power com pany should be congratulated on the manner in which they conducted the campaign which .con cluded Friday. Most certainly they disagreed on figures and so-called facts, but the absence of vilification wps especially gratifying. The vote in the rural sections came as some what o f a surprise to some persons because most of the agitation for the proposed district was developed in those areas, giving a distorted picture o f the sentiment there.__________________ Adrian Mrs. John II.

The latest development of these "Hearing Lenses," featured In the Unlpar, will be demonstrated by Hollenbeck at the free clinic.
