Socialists Raise a Protest Be
cause Not Represented on
Election Board
s. PLACES
WANT DEMOCRATS
Claim the Vote on Presidential EIeo-
tors Should Govern Appointment Of
Judges and clerks-Supervisors Say
State Ticket Vote is tho Basis-Dem-
ocrats Already Appointed.

The socialist leaders Of the city
of the First ward of this city in next
Tuesdays election, unless Judge and
clerk of election are appointed from
among the members Of their party.
The trouble has arisen because of a
difference in the Interpretation OF the
law governing the appointment Oh
Judges and clerks Of election.
At the last general election the So
cialist presidential electors secured
more votes in the First ward than did
the democratic electors. On the head
of the state ticket the vote as hetweeu
the democratic and socialist candidates
for secretary OF state was a tie When
the supervisors took up the matter OF
appointing an election board they tol-
lowed the custom that has always pre-
vailed here of permitting the vote on
the head of the state ticket to govern
the appointments, and as the vote was
tie and as no names had oeen rec
commended from the socialist party, Il.
E. Carver and Robert Buchwald, DEM
ocrats. were selected to serve as judge
and clerk respectively.
These appointments were made
month ago, and now the socialists are
demanding that members of their par
ty be selected in place of the two
democrats. County Auditor McLeland,
as clerk Of the board of supervisors,
wrote to the secretary of state for Ms
opinion, and received a letter In reply
to the effect that in the secretary's
opinion socialists should be named and
that the vote on the first elector-at-
large should be taken as basis. Tne
state secretary said, however. that this
was only his personal opinion, and ne
recommended that the county attor-
ney be consulted. This has not yet
been done, but probably will be. as
Supervisor Jones has promised to take
the matter up. The board, however.
has adjourned without date.
The socialists say that they propose
to have men on hand on election day,
next Tuesday, to serve, and that II
they are not permitted to act they will
make an effort to have the vote of the
ward thrown out and may bring the
matter to the attention Of the grand
Jury

The presidents efforts to secure an
amendment to the liability act Of en-
ployers was successful. The railroad
men employed in the train service tried
for years to obtain some legal limita-
tons to the hours of continuous SER
vice. and the president took the ques-
ton up with every prospect of sue
cess. This is question that ought to
have been attended to twenty years
ago.
Among the most important legisla-
ton enacted by congress is the pure
food laws, wherein the people got much
more than they asked for. Senator
Dolliver said that no such practical
service had been rendered the com
mon people for generations as the pure
food legislation.
In regard to the trusts, the senator
said he believed the laws of nature had
done more to disintegrate them than
any act of congress- The only advan-
tage the trust has ovei. other corpof-
ations Is the secret arrangement Win
the railway managers for rebates or
special rates. There Is not one of opi
great trusts that has not had a con-
spiracy with the traffic managers OF
the trunk lines. The Standard Oil. the
American Sugar Refining Company ana
the steel trust were built UP by Grim
inal rebate. Roosevelt said the secret
rebate must go. and the senator pre-
dicted that the new commerce law
would kill off the trusts, and the pri-
vate freight car nuisance.
Senator Dolliver closed with an APP
peal for the support of the ticket, from
governor down. and repeated the per-
sonal appeal made at Boone, in which
he asked for endorsement of the adj
ADMINISTRATION by the election OF legis-
lature that would return him to the
senate.

USEFUL LIFE ENDED
j. p. Starr Passes Away at the
Advanced Age of 73 Years.

The sad intelligence was conveyed
to our community last Tuesday morn
ing that j. p. Starr had passed away
suddenly while on a visit to his
daughter, Mrs. George Richmond.
He was seemingly in the best Of
health and spirits upon retiring Mon
day evening, but at an early hour
Tuesday morning Mr. Richmond was
called to his side and assisted him to
a couch downstairs, where he passed
into the borders Of the Unknown be-
fore medical assistance could be pro-
cured. Mr.. Starr had suffered from
heart disease and it was an attack of
that trouble tnat caused his death.
James Percy Starr was born in New
Jersey, May 25, 1888, and when a
small boy moved to New York, where
he resided until going to California
in 1870. He came to Oregon in 1878
and had made his home here since.
In 1862 hewas married to Miss Adeline
Crawford in Duchess county, New
York. Mr.. Starr resided in Yamhill
county a short time and for many
years lived at Falls City, having been
engaged in trade as blacksmith and
upon his farm near that place. He
moved to Dallas in 1900. He is sur
vived by his widow, also three sons,
Arthur p, and G. L. Starr, Of Dallas. |
