UMATILLA LEADS.

Just think of it! Umatilla county
leads the United States at the Lewis
and Clark fair, in receiving the great
est number of gold medals awarded
to any county!
She is third in the list with total
number of awards. She didn't half
try. either!
Think what she could have achiev-
ed had she began collecting exhibits
for the fair last fall. Think what
showing she could have made had she
expended $4,000 for a county building
and exhibit, instead of losing herself
in the midst of the agricultural build
ing.
Well. people expected something
from Umatilla and she didn't deceive
them. To lead with As gold medals,
in a state of such magnificent re-
sources, is something! And to think
that she is only an infant! The old
counties of the Willamette valley
were grown up and fully matured
when Umatilla was discovered! In an
industrial sense, Umatilla's eyes are
not vet open. She has not begun to
grow yet
)Forty-five gold medals! Well, that's
going some, with Marion, washing
ton Linn. Lane, Benton and Clacka-
mas in the race, too!
Why, those old counties were EN-
nires of wealth when Umatilla was
iackrabbit haunt! The Willamette
valley was feeding the state on spuds
apples. rutabagas and pumpkins be
fore a plow ever dared the sageorusi
roots of Umatilla county or ever al

And to think that Umatilla has woi

DECLINE OF PARTIsANIsM.

Never again in the United States
will there be exhibited the strong and
partisanism which has
been the bane of the past three de-
cades
Issues have arisen over which laen
of good morals and good Judgment
cannot afford to be divided on partisan
lines. and so there will be clasping
of hands all along the line hereafter
The curse of partisanism is 'h"ing
revealed every day in different poo
tions OF the country. Grafters and
frauds have been the chief promoters
of bitter partisanism in the past, and
today their main object is made appar-
eut in the many trials for frauds, cor
ruption. public malfeasance and all
other phases of misconduct in and out
of office.
II was to the personal interest OF
these frauds to keep alive bitter par
tisanism which would insure their
election in their various sections
Really. there has been SO little cause
for a division of the common people
in the past 10 years, that one wonders
how a dividing line has been main
! tained.
Roosevelt's administration in United
/ States history will mark the decline o
nartisanism. 1t will be the dividing
line between the old order and th'
new. II will usher in new and NOR
sensible policy in which merit will b'
recognized no matter what its politica
brand and crime will be punished NJ
matter what its political color.
i Public and private morals are nov
more important than hair-sph,hh
difference over the tariff. Herear
n will be more and more importai
in the selection of candidates, whe'hA
candidate is a man Of good moral
and clean character. rather than
man of certain political qualification
; Honesty, rather than partisan
will be the principal distinguishll'
> characteristic which the people wl
, demand from men seeking public ,
t flee, hereafter.

CATARRH
A UNIVERSAL DISEASE

Catarrh usually begins with cold in
the head, but does not stop there. The
mucous membranes all become infiamed
and secrete filthy, unhealthy matter
which is absorbed by the blood and dis
tributed to all parts of the body. The
patient is then continually hawking
and splitting, the nose is stopped up,
the ears have ringing or buzzing noise,
the throat becomes sore, and as the un-
healthy matter more thoroughly satu-
rates the blood general feeling OF des-
pondency takes possession OF the system
Ihad Catarrh for about fifteen years,
and no man could have been worse l
tried everything L could hear OF, but no
good resulted. ] then began 8. 3; s.,

Lapeer, Mich. M. mAtSoN'
Local applications cannot cure Catarrh,
because they do not reach the seat of the
trouble. They allay the Inflammation
and temporarily relieve the disease, but
as soon as they are left off the trouble re-
turns. The only way to cure Catarrh is
to treat it through the blood. S. S. S. soon

A "PoLITlcat" ISSUE.

LAST Saturday the Border Vi- dette asserted that the criticism of the county physician, leveIed by THE OASIS, for neglect of the two children run over by a railroad train three weeks ago, was actuated by political motives" Of course 1t was. Government is always a matter of politics. Those who stand for good government have from necessity to be lin politics. When an official of any rank or degree neglects his duty, those who have to stand for bringing him to d just responsibility for his neglect have to De lin politics per force. And 1t is no defence at all to in- terpose on behalf of a negligent or criminal official that move- ment to call him to a just respon- sibility is grounded in politi cal motives.
 But that has been always the cry of the Yidette. It has been always ready to defend those in office who were subjects Of just criticism ,swith the plea that they were victims Of political perse- cution' And 1t has been just asI ready to defend republican crooks and grafters as to defend demo- crats caught in the tolls.
 The Vidette is helpless in these matters. It never yet stood for principle. It don't know how. And it cannot shift from the coun- " physician just responsibility for his neglect by crying that he is a victim of political persecution.

With rare good sense MT. Bohall declined to become guilty of any sneh gross and offensive partisanship, and he turned the remonstrances over to Doctor Bristol. local chairman of the anti-stateh ood league, for him to circulate, which that gentleman is doing.
 In this connection THE OASIS has received several letters from post masters and others throughout the territory, protesting against this gross attempt of the self constitut- ed guardians Of Arizona to pros titute the public service for vio- lent partisan ends.

THE anti-statehood press point with pride to the fact that but three of all the newspapers in Arizona are for statehood--annexing New Mexico to Arizona. Very true. And in 1879, when Californians changed their state constitution the proportion of the newspapers supporting the new instrument was yet smaller. But the people voted to adopt it. History will repeat.
