also engaged in the real estate and in
sufaiRe business. As county auditor he
has made friend of every taxpayer
with whom he has had business rela-
tions, and his conduct of his office has
been most efficient and up to date in
every way. His methods are systematic
and he is always and invariably the
same affable and efficient officer and
public servant'and the county will, we
think, show their appreciation by re-
clecting him by a large majority.
Two years ago we told the people
that Mr.. Amsbaugh was a thoroughly
well qualified man for County Auditor
and'that if they elected him he would
make good" In his conduct Of his
office since he has been Auditor we feel
safe in saying that every patron of the
Auditors Office will agree with us that
he has made good.
We solicit for him the support of all
fair-minded svoters and can promise
them, on his behalf and in his name,
that he will continue, if elected, to

Dakota county, Nebraska. September
Is, 1873, being 2s years of age. He
received a high school education,
afterwards entering the Iowa College
of Law department of Drake Univer-
sity, Des Moines, Iowa, one of the lead
ing colleges and law Tschools of the
Middle West.
He graduatedfwith honors in May,
1900, at the age of q, and was admit
ted to the bar of the Iowa Supreme
court. Attracted by the great posi-
bilities of the young state. of Wash
ington he.came.west in April, 1901, and
was so impressed with the state that
he filed on a homestead in Adams
county three days after his arrival.
He was admitted to the bar of the
Washington Supreme court in Jan
uary, 1902, and opened an Office in
Ritzville the following June. To
prove his further faith and perma-
nency of his residence here he mar
ried a,.Washington girl two years ago.
W. T. Warren, present judge of the
Superior court, gave him the appoint
ment of Court Commissioner in Jan
uary, 1905, and he has very capably
filed the position.
Possessed of keen perception of
right and wrong and high moral
sense of justice he has all the neces-
sary qualifications for the conduct of
the prosecuting attorneys office.
Mr.. Rathbun possesses an affable
and pleasant disposition and is out
spoken on all public questions. Since
coming to Ritzville he has made
many friends in both a social and
business way. He wishes to meet all
the voters before election. His Offices

A Short Sketch of the Lives of the Nomi-
ne6S for Election Nov. 6.
These Are Few of the Men Who Will Rule the Affairs
of Adams County During the Next Two Years.

Almost unaidcd he postponed the opera
ton of a law abolishing third grade
teachers certificates, which if passed,
would have raised the cost of country
schools at least one-third and greatly
increased the difficulty of finding teach
ers in the smaller districts. He was
probably given more important com
mittee assignments than any represen-
tative Adams county has sent for
number of years, was factor in the
senatorial contest, kept himself free
from all suspicion of jobbery and was
respected by all as an Industrious, con-
scientious member. The coming ses-
sion will bring up many matters of i'm
portance to the citizens of Adams
ccounty. The railroads will test the
commission bill in every way possible,
the tax commission will present new
methods of taxation, the sack-making
machinery at the penitentiary must be
increased and new legislation to better
distribute the sacks passed, the road
law must be finally settled, some legis-
latiOn must be secured to overcome the
weeds and pests in our wheat fields, a
bank regulation bill will come up and
probably the friends of Tacoma win try
to remove the capital with it's accom-
panying expense.
Mr.. Bassett has the experience in
legislation and with men which fit him
to deal with all these problems. His
business interests are probably more
varied than are those of any other man in
the county. He is at home in banking,
mercantile and farming departments.
He is very public spirited, the founder
of the Ritzvlle public library, model
of its kind; the first president of the
Ritzvile chamber of commerce, and
always ready to respond to all calls for
the benefit of the community. He is a
ready and effective speaker, used to
political life, industrious and above re-
proach He makes friends easily and
seldom loses them, while he never
allows himself to have an enemy.
During the coming session, with no
senator to elect, political considerations
will give place to business matters and
without any disparagement to the can
didate on the other ticket we feel sure
that Mr.. Bassett could give the county
so much better service as to be entitled
to unanimous vote of all good cit
liens.

Edwards was elected to the Office of
assessor, which he filled with satisfac-
tion, and he has from that time been
practically out of politics. He recently
acquired an interest in the Myers
Shepley CO.. large department store
in Ritzville and is himself one of the
influential taxpayers of Adams county.
The nomination for the Office of treas
urer was rendered him by the Republi-
can county convention because of his
eminent fitness for its duties, and in
recognition of his lifelong adherence
to the party. A vote for Mr.. Edwards
is vote for a man with whom the
county's funds will be perfectly safe, a
gentleman who will always be found
courteous and agreeable in the trans
action of the duties of the office, and
who will in all ways make capable
treasurer.

in public school work, teaching one
year in rural school and two years in
the graded schools of Centerville,
where he was in charge of the gram
mar department. This position he
resigned to enter the University of
Michigan, where he remained four
years as a student in the literary and
law departments, graduating from the
law department in 1904. His college
course completed Mr. Truax decided to
locate in Washington and came to this
state and county in the autumn of 1904.
During his two years residence in this
county he has taught in and near Lind
and the past year in the Michigan
Prairie (Sutton) district east of Hatton.
He has been uniformly successful in
every position he has held and takes
pleasure in referring to the schools
where he has taught.
Mr.. Truax possesses all the legal
requirements for the Office of Superin-
tcndent, holding II lirst-gradc Washing
ton certificate and first-grade certifi-
Gates from Michigan and Idaho as well.
He is a man of strong mental equip
ment. is thoroughly modern in his
methods of teaching and is capable of
giving the county an excellent school
administration. If elected he will give
his undivided personal attention to his
official duties.

J. D. BASSETT.
Republican Nominee for Repre-.
sentative.

1t gives the News great pleasure to
remind its readers that Mr.. j. ID.
Bassett is the candidate of the Repub-
lican party for representative once
more. In the last session Mr.. Bassett
fully fulfilled his pledges to work for
the interests of Adams county. From
the first of the session he was one of
the leaders in the fight for railroad
commission and introduced the first
commission bill containing many new
and valuable features, on which the
bill as finally passed was based.
The final passage of the measure, which
will probably prove the most beneficial
legislation to the farmers of eastern
Washington of any passed for years,
was due as much to him as to any
other member of the legislature. He
introduced and succeeded in carrying
through the house the bill for the bet
ter regulation of banks, line of leg
islation in which his experience made
him an authority.
Both parties in their state cOnven-
tions have complimented him by de-
manding the passage of his bill during
the coming session.
He introduced and succeeded in car
rying through, in spite Of strenuous OPP
position on the part of the city insur-
ance companies, the bill for the incor-
poration Of the Adams County Mutual
Fire Insurance company, which reduces
the cost of insurance to the farmers of
Adams county at least one-half. At
his suggestion the laws concerning
bank checks was amended to confine its
operation to checks passed with intent
to defraud, changing a law which might
have been dangerous, TO one proving
every week OF great benefit to the
business classes of the state. He was
chairman of the committee appointed
by the members from eastern Washing
ton to draft a road bill, which he hopes
to see passed during the coming session.

SHORTAGE ACUTE.
oregon Raiiroads Virtually Unable
to Get Cars.

Although ever thing is being done
that can be done by the Oregon rail-
roads to re ieye the congestion. the car
shortage tha. b embarrassed shippers
for he past few months has reached an
acute stage. 1t is now worse than ever
before and the 81 .tion is said by those
in a position to know, to be the most
damaging to business in the annals Of
Oregon railroading. Cars are we'll nigh
impossible t. SECURE. Business men
Interested in the moving of all kinds OF
freight are clamoring for cars, but to no
purpose. No elf is in sight.
The wheat crop in the interior is wait
ing to be moved to Portland, where
ships are lying ready to take the grain
to foreign ports. There are no cars
avail bic to transport this years crop to
tidewster and grain exporters are des-
perate. Savmil men see ruin staring
them in the face, for unless cars can be
hsd to carry their products to market,
shutdowns and heavy losses are un-
avoidable. Hop dealers are anxious to
have their hops hauled East and merch.
ants genera " are at their wits end for
transportation.
The supply cf cars is strikinglv made
uuBte. There are two sources from
which the Oregon lines of the Hartman
system secure empty cars. These are
the delivery OF "empties" by the
Southern Pacific at Ashland or Dy the
Oregon Sort Line at Huntington
