The Pendleton Tribune persists in
saying that Judge Hartman is a selfish
man and cites as an instance the pur-
chase of the county poor farm. In this
citation the Tribune directly slaps ia the
face Horace Walker and T. p. Gilliland,
the two republican commissioners who
hold the balance Of power in all tran
sactions made by the county court. II
there was any graft or steal in the pur-
chase of the farm why did not the two
commissioners block the dealY The
truth of the matter is that the county
poor are now being better cared for and
at less expense than ever before, and the
Tribune will have an uphill pull in try
ing to belittle the poor farm purchase.
Anyone with the least touch of business
sense knows that the buying of the
county poor farm was good, sound busi-
ness foresight. Evidently the Tribune
fight against Hartman is personal one
and is being waged because Hartman
as county Judge and the commissioners
cut down the county printing bill.
The present county court has done all
in its power to reduce expenditures and
get the county out of debt. The differ
ence and methods Of the previous adj
ministration and the present are very
marked. For instance, on July l, 1900,
the amount OF warrants outstanding
against the county was l85,U78. For
purposes, perhaps political, the court
had in January, 1900, made levy by
which SAG, 900 was raised. The average
yearly expense had been $65,000. This
$4,000 increased the county debt, in
cluding interest, to at least $220, 600.
So much for the previous county ad-
ministration. Under the present ad-
ministration county script is now called
for redemption up to March l, 1908, and
the county is soon to issue call for all
script up to May l, 1908, thus for the
first time in years, leaving but one
years Indebtedness outstanding against
the county, the actual debt as 1t now
stands being about $32, 900. OF course,
if such bills as the Tribunes were to be
allowed the reduction of the county
debt would be practically imposs BILE,
but as the present county court can dis
criminate between assessors blanks at
95 cents per M. (original bid) and "half-
sheet" blanks at 800 per M, every in.
dication is given that if the taxpayers
will be content with the present man.
agement in county affairs, but one year
more will be needed to entirely wipe out
the county debt. Had it not been for
the excessive state and school taxes,
amounting to $780, ,245, the debt, with
the present levy, would have been
cleaned up. The extra state levy
amounts to $40, 1856 and the school So
AGO, over last year, or about 81 mills.

HOW A WATCH WORKS,
4 Vibrating Wheel Takes the Plac.
of the Clocks Pendulum.

4 Vibrating wheel Takes the Place
of the Clocks Pendulum.
A watch differs from clock in its
having vibrating wheel instead Of a
vibrating pendulum and as in clock
gravity is always pulling the pendulum
down to the bottom Of its arc, which is
its natural place Of rest, but does not
fix 1t there because the momentum &c.
CURED during its fall from one side
carries it up to an equal height on the
other, so In watch spring, generally
spiral, surrounding the axis Of the bal
ance wheel, is always pulling this to-
ward a middle position Of rest, but does
not fix It, there because the momentum
acquired during it's approach to the
middle position from either side carries
1t just as far past OH the other side,
and the spring has to begin its work
again. The balance wheel at each vi
bration allows one tooth Of the adjOin-
ing wheel to pass, as the pendulum
does In a clock, and the record Of beats
II preserved by the wheel which fol-
lows. A handspring Is used to keep up
the motion of the watch instead Of the
weight used in a clock, and as a spring
acts equally well, whatever be it's posi-
ton, watch keeps time, although car
ried in the pocket or in a moving ship.
In winding up watch one turn Of the
axle on which the key is fixed is render
ed equivalent by the train of wheels to
about 400 turns or beats of the balance
wheel, and thus the exertion during a
few seconds Of the hand which winds
