chase OF 12O acres of land five miles
south OF Dayton. The land will be

ITCHING CURED
With Cuticura Remedies i'm
Three Days After Six
Months of Suffering.

IL suffered fully six months. The
trouble began on my arms In little
red pimples and it was not long before
it was all over my body, limbs, face,
and hands. 1t was so bad that l could
not rest night or day and during the
six months, did not get good nights
sleep. / doctored for three or four
months and spent at least twenty dol
lars trying to find cure but none could
be found. Then / saw the Cuticura
Remedies advertised, and the next day
l purchased some for seventy-6ve cents
at the druggists. I used them and
was relieved Of the itching in three days,
and have never had sign Of any skin
disease since. The Cuticura Remedies
are the only remedies to use for skin
diseases, they have cured me and they
will cure others in the same way. j. w.

HURRY WORK ON CELLO CANAL

After 4 great amount of preliminary
work, revised plans of the government
canal between The Dalles and Cello,
have been completed and forwarded to
Washington for approval Government
engineers in charge of this important
work have assurances that the revised
PLANS will be Immediately taken up by
the government authorities and if APP
proved, q substantial appropriation for
continuing the work will be made. The
Cello canal is the only really import
ant work to be done in order to open up
4 channel from Lewiston to the sea,
and it is hoped that the revised plans
will be approved and the necessary ap-
rrcprations made. Within the past
year numerous distractions to navi-
CATION in both the Columbia and Snake
rivers have been removed by govern
ment Gredges and the work is to be
continued with unabated energy. The

makes it imperative that an open chan
mel to the sea be constructed as quickly
as possible.

Washington, Nov. 24.-Promise Is
held out tnat-there will not be even
ia jarawhen the Roosevelt administra
ton ends and the Taft administration
beginscon Marehf4 next. Almost world
wide attention has been attracted to
the coming merger" of the two ad.
illustrations. The opinion is freely
expressed that history does not re.
cord a case of such frictionless change
in the headship of a great govern
ment.
There probably will be fewer imme-
diate Cabinet changes than ever be-
fore marked the incoming of a new
President, except in cases where a
Vice President has succeeded. This
is due, of course, to Mr.. Taft's having
so long been a member of the Roose-
welt Cabinet and having associated
as such with MT. Rooseveltts present
advisers. The only man who has en-
tered the Cabinet since Mr.. Taft quit
it, except Secretary Of War Wright
with whom he was associated in the
Philippines, Is Mr.. Newberry, who has
just succeeded to the Secretaryship
of the Navy, and the P~resident-elect
knows Mr.. Newberry and his qualif-
cations almost as well as he does any
other member OF the Cabinet. There
is no reason, therefore, why he should
not take all the time he wants in max
ing up his own Cabinet, appointing
his members one at a time and
thus always having experienced hands
at the helm. Mr.. Taft is the first man
to be elected President since Martin
Van Buren, who served In the Cabinet
his predecessor, and Van Buren,.
been elected to the Vice Pres
idency. was not In the Cabinet dur
ing Jackson's second administration.
Not only will there be lack of fric-
when the new President takes hold.
but he will be in harmony to a re-
degree with the leaders OF
his party In Congress. Even Uncle

EDD C. DUNN FOR TREASURER

Among the various candidates for
county Offices this year the name of
Edd @. Dunn, democratic candidate
for county treasurer is deserving of
special mention. Born In Polk County
little over 26 years ago, he is known
we'll and favorably to nearly every
man, woman and child in Dallas
where he has spent the greater portion
of his life, Mr.. Dunn has been en-
ployed by number of business men
in Dallas, and his best asset today is
the unstinted praise for his honest
and efficient work bestowed upon him
by his former employers. Edd G.
Dunn is careful, clean, energetic. of
exemplary habits, possesses excellent
clerical ability, and is entirely COM
petent to conduct the office to which he
aspires. He is making a clean and
vigorous campaign, and it is generally
conceded that he will be elected treas
urer of Polk County next Monday by
a substantial majority. (adv.)

10 years Of age he began teaching,
and followed this work continuously
in the country and town schools OF
Missouri for il years. He came to
Oregon 10 1887, and resumed teaching.
He first took charge of the school at
Buena Vista for six months, and was
employed at the end of that time for a
second term. In April of 1888 he was
nominated by the democratic party
for county school superintendent Of
Polk county, and elected, in which
office he continued for four years. He
was one OF the first superintendents to
introduce graded work into the schools
of his county. AT the close Of his Sec
ond term as school superintendent he
was elected as principal of the Dallas
public schools, which position he held
four years. Prof Reynolds, by ardu-

A FINAL WORD.

Before the next issue of the Observer
the state and county political cam.
paign will have drawn to close and
the people will have chosen their
officers for the respective official terms
The contest In Polk county has been
remarkably clean and free from per-
sonalities, aud gives promise of Sc
continuing to the end, leaving the
best OF feeling among friends and
neighbors and nothing to regret
among the candidates. The Republican
ticket, both state and county, Is COM
posed OF good men, and there is no
reason why II should not receive the
united support of the Republican
voters. While this paper believes In
the principles OF the Republican party
and naturally desires the success of
the Republican candidates, 1t has no
word OF dlsparagement OF any candi-
date on the opposing tickets. They
are all worthy citizens, 80 far as we
know, but they are not In accord with
the principles and purposes OF the
Republican party, and for this reason
have no claim to Republican support.
II Is true that county and precinct
officers have little TO do with the shap-
Ing Of party principles. but It Is also
true that the defeat of one OF its candl-
dates by a Democrat weakens the
Republican party just to that extent.
The Observer does not believe that
any voter should be an ahject slave to
party, but In case like that OF this
year, when the Republicans have put
out none but clean. able men, we see
no reason why any Republican should
not 90 TO the polls aud cast a straight
Republican ballot thereby voting his
principles and strengthening his
party.
The contest between Mr.. Cake and
Mr.. Chamberlain Is one OF vital
importance 10 the future OF the Repub-
lican party in the state OF Oregon.
There is absolutely no reason why a
state with a $1,000 Republican major

LETTER TO VOTERS.

DALLAS, Or, May 27-It is a mis-
taken claim that Polk county was out
Of debt when the present Court went
into office. On April ], 1905, the time
to which the former court made It's
last levy, the amount of outstanding
warrants which constituted the in
debtedness Of the county was $33, $40 20,
and this amount was paid off by the
present administration the first two
years OF its term.
In addition to this, the present
administration has furnished new
metal furniture for the Clerks and
Recorders offices; finished the court
yard; caused to be constructed one
steel bridge, (the first ever built In the
county, and let the contract for three
more. II has done more good road
work In the last year. 1907. than In
four years before, and has more work
laid out for this year-than last year.
The present court raised the road levy
some each year, and are extending the
road work as rapidly as any reason
able person can expect, without vast
ing the road funds. II requires time
to become acquainted with the various
roads 10 the county and the conditions
and methods Of doing the work.
All matters concerning the above
statement OF Indebtedness can be veri-
iicd by examination Of the records,
and as to the road work. all a person
has TO do is 10 travel over the county
and examine what has been done. M
given another term, know we can
more than double the amount OF i'm
'rovement that has been made the
irst term, and Of permanent character.

In this, our last issue before the
election, we have nothing farther to
say on the local option question than
was said in Tuesdays paper.
All that was said is the result of the
writer's own personal observation, and
authority is given for every assertion
made The statements cannot be
disproved, for the very good reason
that they are true. The article was
not written to make either friends or
enemies, but it is gratifying to us
that some of the best people in the
community, leading church members
and otherwise good citizens, have in
dorsed what was said as fair and sin
cere. The opinion OF a few persons
who have permitted their zeal to get
the better Of their discretion and led
them to say things Of which they may
some day be sorry, are nothing to US.
1t is an important question, and one
that should be discussed calmly and
without prejudice as between neigh
bors and friends. The Observer has
no i'll will against those who disagree
with 1t, but is willing to leave the mat
ter with the fair-minded men and
women of Polk county to decide. The
editorial was written as an appeal to
the people who are fair and free from
prejudice, and by their decision it will
abide.
