We learn with regret that Mrs. S. L.
Bates has sold the Grafton News and
Times and will discontinue work in that
field. which she and her husband have
carried on for nearly % years. The
News and Times has alwas been a first
class newspaper under their manage
ment and has enjoyed a generous pat
ronage from the people of Walsh county
and vicinity. The newspaper fraternity
of the state will miss the trenchent pen
of Mrs. Bates greatly.

About the New Primary Law.

Editor OSnabrock Independent:-
Several times Of late my opinion has
been asked regarding certain features
OF the primary election law. and so. as
many may not have either the oppor-
tunity or inclination to carefully read
and interpret the different provisions
of that law, a few timely pointers for
the benefit of voters might not be out
of order.
The chief intent and purpose of that
law is. at least supposed to be. TO purify
political conditions. Firstly by causing
nominations for Office. to come to the
nominee directly from the people through
a popular or primary election.
Thus, supposedly. eliminating or
heading off the bosses. dictators. poll
teal p%lotters and manipulators, etc, who
have been. and perhaps still are, too
rampant. And secondly. by prohibiting
the members Of one political party from
interfering with the vitality important
affairs. like caucuses Of another party.
or otherwise averting any undue in
huence which might be detrimental &c
the best interests of the party. as such
interfered with.
Now therefore. without quoting from
the law, party nominations are supposed
to be made strictly within the lines O.

Organize Baseball Team.

"The Tribunes" is the name of q
baseball team that has been organized
by the young men of Dallas for the
season of 1906. The members of the
team range in age from 16 to IS years,
and all have had experience on the
diamond. They are arranging a
schedule of 10 games to be played
during the coming spring and sum
mer. Having no inclosed grounds,
where an admission fee can be
charged, the team is obliged to depend
upon cash donations to defray the ex-
penses of the games. A subscription
paper was circulated Saturday and
about S95 was secured. The boys
hope to increase this fund to $50,
which will be amply sufficient for all
purposes. The lads are entitled to
liberal encouragement in providing
clean, wholesome amusement for the
people of Dallas, and it is only fair
that those who care to witness the
games should pay the expense, which
will be small.

DIR. THOMPSON RESIGNS
Veteran Presbyterian Divine Lays
Down Work After Thirty-fiVe
Years In the Pulpit.

Announcement of the resignation of
Rev. E. J. Thompson, pastor of the
First Presbyterian church, of Inde-
pendence, was made Sunday. DR..
Thompson rendered his resignation
Friday afternoon at meeting of the
board of the trustees, owing to his
health being such that he wished to
discontinue active service as pastor.
DR.. Thompson has been in the Pres
byterian ministry 35 years, having
held many important charges. He is
a graduate of Middlebury college,
Vermont, and was professor in the
University Of Minnesota at Mime
apolis for 18 years. In 1883 he came to
Oregon, preaching in Salem three
years. From there he went to Corvallis
where he had charge Of the church for
over five years, since which time he
has been in Independence. In the five
years that he has had charge Of the
Independence church there have been
80 accessions to the church, and there
is now membership Of 1875, while the
church is out Of debt and in prosperous
condition.
The relations between pastor and
congregation in the five years have
been most pleasant and he is
particularly popular with the young
people In his ministry he has united
in marriage ], 1888 couples. DR.. Thomp-
son will make Independence his home,
supplying churches as his health
permits.

The Commercial Cream Company,
operating creameries in Salem, Lyons,
and Lewiston, Idaho, has secured as
manager of its Salem plant Mr.. }. T..
Shepard, of Zena, Polk county. Mr.
Shepard took charge of the business
Monday. The company is now max
ing more butter than any other con-
cern in the central Willamette valley,
and expects to increase its output six
fold.
The Salem Journal says: Fore
seeing a rapid growth in their bust
ness, the directors of the Commercial
Cream Company havefor some months
seen the necessity Of securing q com
petent man to take charge OF their
business, They believe they have the
right man in Mr. J. r. Shepard, OF
Polk county. Certainly he will sue
ceed if he brings to bear the same
energy, intelligence and courtesy up
on the business Of the company that
he has always manifested in his own
private affairs, in the newspaper
business, fruit growing and farming
generally. For nearly "a years, he
has been almost as much identlhed
with Salem and its interests as though
resident here, living across the river
in the Zena neighborhood, in POLK
county. He informs us his seed, hay
and fruit growing interests will now
be under the management OF his son,

Would Take OnIy SaIary.

Hon. E. v. Carter, Of Ashland,
candidate for the Republican nomi-
nation for State Treasurer was in
Dallas, Monday. Senator Garter has
represented Jackson county several
terms in the Legislature, and is one
of the most widely known men of Ore
gon. He is making an active canvass
for the Office of State Treasurer, and
believes he has excellent chances Of
winning. His pledge to pay over to
the State all interest earned on its
funds, thereby saving to the taxpayers
from $4,000 to $4,000 annually, is
something new In Oregon politics, as
state officers are usually ready to take
not only their salaries, but all the
perquisites of Office as well. Mr.. Carter
says he is willing to take the Office for
the salary, and turn all interest
earned on the funds into the treasury,
where it belongs. He estimates that
such course would save the tax
PAYERS at least 800, 900 each year.
