Lost His Claim.

The Walla Walla land Office last Sat.
urday gave decision in the hard fought
land case Of A. M. Reed of Hope. Idaho.
VS.. VIM. G. Norton of Bemis, Wash.. IN
which the homestead entry OF Norton
was cancelled. Nor.on's claim of good
faith and the hard luck that attended him
made the case an interesting one. He
built a cabin before six months after
filing which was bodily stolen by some
enterpring setter in the next four months.
He built another shack without doors,
floors or windows before the contest was
instituted. fourteen months after filing
He also presented testimony that his
family had been under smallpox quaran
tined two months when the entry was
nearly year old, that he had been teach.
ing school. that he had been postmaster.
that his foot had been crushed in a road
scraper. that his wife had rheumatism
and that he had gotten his family on the
land sixteen months afrer filing. The
land Office held that this was too late,
and recommended cancellation on the
ground that he had not established resi-
dence before the misfortunes overcame
him. The character of the improve
ments he made weighed heavily in the
decision.

Five Good Reasons.

That the Rio Crande Route is the
most popular one between the Pacific
Coast and the East. is evidenced by the
fact that the greater per cent of trans.
continental travellers use it.
First, the scenic attractions in view
from trains are unequaled in the world.
Second. the daily personally conducted
tourist car excursions being especially
adapted for ladies travelling alone OF
with children. affords comfortable mode
of travel at rates within reach of all.
Third. it is the only route between the
East and West passing directly through
salt Lake City or modern Zion.
Fourth. the choice of two distinct
routes through the heart of the Rocky
Mountains.
Fifth. three fast through trains daily
between Ogden and Denver equipped
with every modern convenience.
There are many other reasons why
this route is the most comfortable and
enjoyable IN the whole country.

Daniel A. Scott who is candidate for
joint senator from the ninth district is
one of the best and most amiable men
in whom all have well founded conf
dence. His integrity is unquestioned and
always will be. Characteristic of his fami
ly and Scotch forefathers his honest de-
termination and and lofty principles will
pass unscathed through the heat of a
campaign, his incumbency in Office, and
in the service of any constituency. We
should look carefully to the man indiyid'
ual.y in whom we are to about to place
our trust. Adams countys' honored candi-
date will bear the scrutiny of the critical
eye of the public and will never be found
wanting. Mr.. Scott will always and even
keep in touch with and remain near the
people at all times. He is grandson of
the late Hon. Daniel Buchanan who was
our faithful member in the constitutional
convention in 1850 and prominent and
highly respected man among our fore
most citizens. Mr.. Scott strongly favors
and entertains abiding faith in Mcbride
and in appointive railway commission
and being one of the leading and most
successful farmers in the state will prove
a useful man in the upper house where
legislation demands broad minded and
fair view of all matters pertaining to the
general welfare Of the commonwealth.
To chickering's and jealousies he prefers
peace at any price. Mr. Scott stands on
his record and merit and not in the light
that some of the opposition are trying to
make 1T appear. Mcbride for governor
and Scott for joint senator should look
good to Adams county.
The writer knows OF no better material
for the Office. He is a vigorous young
man, progressive liberal and enterpris-
ing. and withal square toed and with a
fine hea of common sense. The emol
uments OF state senator Is one that should
be bestowed upon man who is capable,
just and unbiased. Dan Scott is such a
man; so say we who have known him the
longest and best. His personal qualities
have won for him the respect and esteem
of all classes and we believe he will
make an upright and able senator. BY
electing such men Of this stamp the bet
ter interests Of the state will be rightfully
conserved and the bulwark of national
safety made stronger. For the first time
in the history Of Adams county An oppor-
tunity is open to us to obtain representa-.
ton in the state senate. Every voter in
the county should be desirious of assist.
ing such cause and contributing most
hearty support.

Political Pot.

1t is very great pleasure to this
paper to support Daniel A. Scott for
joint senator for Adams, Franklin and
poi ton of Walla Walla county which
comprises the ninth senatorial district.
This is not only because Of the friend
ship we bear for him but, also because
long acquaintance with him has con-
WINGED us of his upightness of character.
his intelligence and his capacity for at
fairs. He stands so much above the or
binary politician that his name may not
receive much consideration from the
medicine mixers, but if should be nomi-
mated he would be elected and he would
be credit to his party and to his state.
Mr.. Scott has labored in Washington
as farmer for many years and he has
always stood manfully for the best things
IN his community. The state could find
no worthler son to honor with state
Office.
Mr.. Walter Staser the studious young
lawyer announces his candidacy for the
nomination of prosecuting attorney at
the hands of the democracy. He is a
well known young man whose conduct
and character are above reproach. He
is the eldest son of Judge and Mrs.
Clinton Staser and has been associated
with his father in the law practice here
since 1894.
Spencer S. Irby is out for the sheriff
ship and his name is among those in the
Candidates Gard" column. Mr.. Irby is
a republican, husky young man full OF
life and vigor and stands ready to do
the bidding of the people in the Office he
seeks. He is a land owner and has
been following we'll drilling for num-
Der of years. He is younger brother of
Postmaster Irby.
Ohio Hauschild candidate for surveyor
on the Democratic ticket has spent near
ly his whole life here. His father Theo-
dore w. Hauschild is now county survey
or, and by reason of holding the second
term is in eneligible. is without doubt one
of the best skilled surveyors in the state,
so that for many years Ohio has been
under the tutorship of an experienced
and practical teacher.
G. F. Christensen county clerk in pro.
priety asks for the denomination to the
office which he now occupies and to
which it would seem to us he is again
entitled to run the gauntlet of cam
paign. Mr.. Christensen is the Demo
cratic State committeeman for Adams
county.

manner of the satin faced cloths of re-
cent and pleasant memory, is an essen
tial. On the contrary, such surface is
impossible in many of the new weaves
because of open mesh and coarseness
There are many faced fabrics, besides,
but the manner in which the stuff will
drape is more the test than is the charac-
ter of its surface.
Voiles were 20 much in favor last fa1
that it would seem to be time for a
change, but manufacturers held to the
opposite opinion, and already women are
focking to their standards. Voiles of ey-
cry possible description meet the shopper
at every hand and of their complete styl-
ishness for the coming spring and sum-
mer there cannot be the least doubt
They range from the extremely coarse
meshed and transparent, to the closely
woven voile of firm texture Embroid-
cred weaves are impressively numerous.
The shopper who has but one trip of
'just looking" at these fabrics will recall
distinctly, too, voies SO sheer as to sug-
gest linen and crepe de chine. Examines
are to be in excellent standing and are
numerous. A linen etamine for shirt
waist suits is new. Next to these goods
in Importance are the linens. They show
substantially the range of last summer,
and will give the same good degree Of
satisfaction to wearers. 1t is pleasant to
note the likelihood of stylish favor for
these materials so long as the shirt waist
suit remains in fashionable standing.
Rough surfaced woolens are offered by
tailors for suits with skirts of walking
length. And even then it is rare that
these fabrics have surface of novelty
roughness, though in making this state
ment it should be added that the winter
brought so many materials of fanciful
