Local Option at Pendleton.

Monte B. Gwinn was in the city
for few hours Thursday on his re-
turn trip from Boise, leaving on No
b for his home at Pendleton.
In answer to the question of how
local option works in Pendleton, Mr..
Gwinn said it was too early to give
a positive answer. He said that
beer and near beer" and various
other kinds of drink was being sold
and the city was receiving no reve-
nue. from it. But he said that the
farmers were more than pleased
with the present condition, as they
did not have the trouble during har-
vest to keep men. Formerly when
Saturday night came and the men
received their pay, large number
OF them would not appear again un-
til Tuesday, and then not In a con-
dition to work. 1t was different
this year, and they don't want a
change. He stated that the success
or failure of local option would be
fully determined by the time cold
weather arrives, when the soft drink
joints should be watched and the law
enforced.

COUNTY CONVENTION.

Before our readers will see an
other issue of The Tribune, the Re-
publican party will have placed its
ticket In the field. The primaries
are to be held Monday and the con-
Vention Tuesday. While we have no
hesitancy in saying that the Repub-
lican convention will nominate men
in sympathy with the State platform
The Republicans of Idaho have de-
ciared for county local option. Unless
the plank of the State platform is
to be made farce, men known to
be favorable to the plank must be
placed on the legislative ticket.
There must be no quibbling on this
point. There are hundreds of good
men in the county, who are opposed
to local option. We do not think
any the less of a man for so think
ing. That Is his right and privilege.
However, In State and county the
Republicans have decided for the
county local option. There is the
question raised, that party platforms
arc not always binding. The Re
publicans can afford to take no
chances. They must see to it that
men, naturally in favor Of local op-
ton are nominated for office, es-
pecially for legislative positions.
This does not mean that we must
send men who are for local option
and nothing else. However it does
mean that we must send men whom
we know are for local option. The
Republicans have pledged them
selves; the people want these pledg-
es kept; and we cannot afford to
jepordize our ticket by failing to
keep our pledge. The Republicans
we trust, will, by their nominations
at Nampa, assure the people that
the party is in earnest.

ers' association. Mr.. Gwinn has been
largely interested in the livestock
business in eastern Oregon for a good
many years, removing to Pendleton a
little more than two years ago."
The friends of Monte Gwinn in this
section of the state will be pleased to
learn of his continued success. The
fact that it only required ten days to
make the necessary change from a
savings bank to national institution,
looks as though Monte had not lost
any of his push and energy.

SUPERINTENDENT OF sCHOoIs

There is one Office in the county to
which the people should pay particu-
lar attention. That Office is the SUPER
intendent of public schools. Directly
or indirectly, they are concerned in
the schools every day of their lives.
AS long as the people have children.
so long will the public schools be of
vital public public Importance. Par
ents cannot help but be interested in
their children, and the public schools
are our main safeguard. The SUPER
intendent of public instruction, in a
large measure, fixes the standard of
our schools; and consequently indi-
rectly, in the same measure fixes the
standard of our children. At the
present time and for some years past
Canyon county has been very FORUM
ate in it's superintendent of schools
We think that a more capable or eff
cient superintendent cannot be found
in Idaho, than the one Canyon county
now has. Miss Bean has, and always
has had at heart the interest of our
school. She has accomplished a great
deal, but the development of our pub
lie school system is in its infancy.
Much yet remains to be done. MANY
important reforms are now in their
inception. Our present superintend-
ent is in sympathy with these re-
forms. She is for progress. She has
aroused enthusiasm and awakened in
terest. Next Thursday the republi-
cans Of Canyon county will be called
upon to name her successor. The
Tribune urges the party to think well ,
before it supercedes her. 1t urges the
republicans to remember their schools
and their children. 1t urges the re-
to lay aside partisanship
and prejudice, and unless a better
person can be found, to nominate
Miss Bean. We invite an examination
of her record.

STATESMAN'S SOPHISTRY.


The Boise Statesman, in an editor
ial published Tuesday in answer to
the Weiser Signal attempts to dis
credit Secretary Lansdon by showing
his vote at the last election in the
surrounding counties, in comparison
of the vote given Congressman
French. The Statesman accounts
for the small vote given Mr.. Lansdon
by the prosecution in the case
brought against him by political
pirates in his own county. We are
more than pleased to admit that those
false, dirty charges preferred i'm
mediately before election, caused
Mr.. Lansdon to lose hundreds of
votes. And the Statesman uses a
poor argument in calling attention
to the fact. In using this argument.
the Boise paper gives its approval
to political blackmail, and endores
canard as a legitimate argument In
politics. Its argument is on a par
with its usual methods.
AS soon as Mr.. Lansdon could, he
demanded trial and was acquitted
without trouble. Both Judge and
jury and what's more the people.
were fully convinced of his inno-
cence. Consequently the Signal of
Weiser is justified in saying that
Mr.. Lansdon will receive a much
greater vote than any man on the
ticket. The American people love
fair play and when they see a gang
OF digruntled politicians attempting
to unjustly prosecute a man they
cannot help flocking to his standard.
Mr.. Lansdon had a. hard fight at the
last election. He won. He then
indicated himself In the courts.
During the past two years he has
made an able and efficient officer.
What more could any Republican
voter ask of man.
But let us look into the votes cast
for some Of the candidates two years
ago. Governor Gooding was the
particular favorite of the Statesman.
That paper worked night and day
for the Governor. Yet in Washing
ton County where the big fight was
made against Lansdon, the Governor
only got two more votes than Lans-
don. In Canyon County, where the
Statesman says the situation was
fully understood, Governor Gooding
received 2146 votes and Lansdon
1896 or difference OF $50 votes.
1t should also be stated, for another
reason well known to the people of
Caldwell two years ago, Mr.. Lansdon
was unpopular here. The prejudices
against him has entirely disappear
ed, and he will carry this county by
at least 500 this year. In Ada
County where the influence OF the
Statesman should be great, II It
has any at all, and where that paper |
made its great fight for Gooding
and fought Lansdon, secretly IL not |
openly, the Governor received only
BOO votes more than did Mr.. Lans-
Ion. These figures tell a tale not
satisfactory to the States
nan. Again let us look at another
statesman favorite. Senator Borah,
he pride OF the Statesman, was NOM
mated in State convention, and yet
lie lost Washington county and half
II Canyon County in the legislature.
This is no reflection on Senator
3orah, but shows the unfair sophis-
ry of the Boise sheet.

Market Day.

Last Monday was market day in
Caldwell, but owing to the unusual
heavy rain which fell Monday morn
ing and continued until after 2 p. m,
the attendance was not near SO large
as usual. Then again. considerable
stock is being held for the big sale
to be held during the fair. The gain
to the ranchers by reason of the rain
more than compensates for the disap-
pointment on sale day.
