BOyCe School Opens October i2.

Mr.. NJ. L. p. Reed, one of the
trustees of the Boyce High School.
one of the leading friends of public
education is this section. was in
town Monday on business. and in
conversation with the COURIER
man, stated that the Boyce High
School would open for the l9OS-9
session on October y.
The delay in opening the school
has been caused by the great work
of erecting the new building and
installing its appliances. but Mr..
Reed properly takes the view that
work of this character should not
rushed and neglected, and that all
the time consumed in properly
finishing the structure is time well
pent.
Boyce will have handsome,
commodious and convenient school
building, and the citizens of that
thriving community are to be con-
graduated upon their civic pride.

Mr.. Bryan'S Gains.

AS the campaign progresses Re
publican uneasiness is becoming
more and more manifest. Enter
ing the struggle with an assurance
amounting to jauntinesS, Mr..
Taft managers have come gradu ually
but irresistibiy to better appre-
clatlor of realities. and complac-
ence has given way to unconcealed
concern. These superintendents
themselves are not. it appears.
giving satisfaction. We find the
Chicago News. for instance, de-
manding in an excited editorial
that Mr.. Taft rid himself of these
ridiculous managers" and "amaz-
ing bunglers," who have mis-
managed obominably his cam
paign," and begin to fight. But
MIR. Taft, whether at Hot Springs,
Middle Bass Island or Cincinnati,
seems to have suffered from the
same pleasant hallucinations that
have incapacitated the bunglers.
Even our Republicans friends
are now ready to admit that as a
campaigner Mr.. Bryan leaves Mr..
Taft looking somewhat helpness.
The Democratic candidate has been
deluded by no dreams that the O..
h. of a distinguished citizen
higher up" insures a tenancy of
the White House. He has been
wol king, and with singular vigor,
ability and adroitness. He has
hammered the Republican weak
nesses squarely, and returning that
way next day he has hammered
them again. The material for
effective speeches which belongs
the Democrats is ample, and prob
ably no man could have made a
more telling use of it As a result.
the political map is undergoing
certain unmistakable changes.
The New York Herald'S weekly
forecasts are commonly considered
the most trustworthy now publish
ed in the United States; no doubt
they are as accurate as forecasts
can be. They show steady gains
for Mr.. Bryan, the gain last week
being notably large. On Sunday,
September 18th, the Herald gave
MIR. Taft 206 electoral votes, Mr..
Bryan 161 and 1I6 doubtful. Yes
terday the Herald gave Mr.. Taft
165 votes, Mr.. Bryan 161 and 157
doubtful. In one week, in short.
Mr.. Bryan removed forty-one cleo
torial votes from Mr.. Taft's posses
sion into the doubtful column.
Twenty-three of these votes, in
cldentally, are attached to Mr..
Taft's native State of Ohio.
Election day is still six weeks
away. The present situation, how
ever, and more significantly, the
present trend, is more encouraging
to the Democratic party than any.

PORTLAND, April ga victory
of tremendous and far reaching inn
port has been won by the people

1t is tremendous because a cor
rupt political machine, that for
years has maintained strangle-
hold on an entire state, has been
utterly demolished.
1t is far reaching because the
people have presented at the polls
a demonstration of the value of
the direct primary as a means OF
purifying politics-a demonstration
so clear and conclusive that every
state in the Union may read as it
runs, and perhaps profit.
There is a politician in Oregon.
He is U. S. Sen. Chas. w. Fulton.
He is a man of great personal mag
netism, a brilliant orator, prac-
tical politician who knows the po-
litical game. He is the exponent
of the dirty machine that was
thhe machine that developed Sen.
