Too Many Offices.

Bend people have circulated pc
titions all over the county asking
that the office of roadmaster be abol-
ished, says the Prineville Review.
They argue that the officials salary,
$1,000, could be better expended by
supervisors over contractors than to
employ roadmasters, supervisors and
contractors. There have been many
good roads built since the roadmaster
took charge of the office, but the
work was in every instance let to
contractors who constructed them
under his supervision. The standard
for roads has been set now and doubt
less would be followed by the con-
tractor without the roadmaster. The
petition will be presented to the
county court, which body will con-
slider 1t.

The threatened delay of the rail-
road by Hector Mcdonald and pos
sibly other landowners between Wal
Iowa and the canyon, asking damages
or more money for right of way across
their land, Is reported as having been
adjusted, and that Mcdonald and the
other owners would make no further
move to restrain the laying of the
track, says the Enterprise News Rec
ord
The hint of trouble from this cause
created no little excitement in Wal
Iowa Tuesday and Wednesday. There
were broad insinuations of a scheme
behind the move, such as stopping the
road at Wallowa for the winter. or
the location of a new townsite near
the head Of the canyon.
II there is anything in the matter
other than appears on the surface,
the citizens of Wallowa are in lgnor-
ance of it, for they were indignant
and alarmed at the prospect of con-
struction work being stopped entire
ly.
There was danger Of that 1t Is be-
lieved, for the officers in charge OF
the work said the o. r. & N. would
not force the railroad on this county
when such actions indicated the peo-
pie did not desire the road.

Chicago, Aug S1.-Preparaton\
were completed today for the OPEN
ing of republican national headquar-
ters here The offices Of the commit,
tee are in the Auditorium hotel, Chi
cagos principal hostelry. The cam
paign for making the next congress
republican in its political complex
ion will be directed from this city.
The campaign of the republicans
both presidential and congressional
will soon be in full swing throughout
the west. The western literary bur-
eau, in charge of Victor Rosewater
publisher of the Omaha Bee, is now
sending out literature and If sufflc-
lent funds can be secured, the west
ern country will be plastered with
! republican arguments in the shape
of leaflets and pamphlets.
1t is admitted that the campaign
managers will have hard work to
hold several western states in the re-
publican column. Conditions in MIN
nesota and Indiana, especially, are
causing the republicans considerable
worry. While the managers declare
they will carry both states for Taft.
they do not minimize the necessity
for hard work.
Methods of raising money for cam
paign purposes are still a source of
worry to the campaign managers.
Speaking of the cost of conducting
the campaign. prominent republican
today said that 100000 to $4,000
would be needed to defray the trav>
cling expenses of speakers, and that
II would cost at least $4,000 to put
one piece of literature in the hands
of every voter.
He fixed the cost of campaign but
tons at more than $4,000, and said
that other large sums would be need
ed for the expenses of headquarters
Autographs and advertising. Then
there are other matters that will be
costlY
Where all this money is to come
from. now that the corporations are
excluded from making campaign con-
tributlons, is a matter of conjecture.
It is likely that the original estimates
will have to be greatly reduced.
No speakers who demand large pay
for their services will be hired and
the campaign in other lines will have
to be conducted on the most econom-
ical basis possible in order to make
both ends meet

As Ben fastened on the angry outcry ahead grew
captive's behavior did bring fatal wrath upon
him. The fear that it might at any have
this result impelled Ben, at risk from
noise, to quicken his pace to run.
1t from behind tree that Ben got his first
glimpse of Toddles That undaunted child en-
gagged in humping with both tiny fists at the chest
and head of the powerful brave who carried him,
and was also kicking sturdiy. Ben looked sharply
about, and when he discovered that he had but one
redskin to deal with, his courage of ali
proportion to the situation. He had feared come
upon a whole party of Indians.
The vgor of Toddes's attack upon his captor
fairly made Ben's blood cold at the thought of
such rash behavior. Surely the Indian would not
tolerate it another instant. He would-oh, what
might he not do? At the very idea Ben's rifle was
slowly raised and aimed. There fash, a sharp
report and then the Indian wheeled about. quite

Indian was nowhere to be seen, but Toddles lay

1t was a terrible game of hide-and-seek. The red
man darted from behind his covert, but vanished
again before Ben could take aim. The boy be-
lieved himself exposed to the enemys FIRE, and,
quick thought, he rolled over. The next instant
