."AnD GEORGE DID,"

It seems that George T. Cochran
was not the "heal and front" of the
assembly business i'm Union county.
It was his brother and law partner,
Charles Cochran. A local assembly
ite says George did not attend the
assembly as a delegate, but it is
not denied George did" receive the
assembly, nomination for superinten-
lent of water division number two,
md his name is on the ballot be-
cause he had no opposition in the

Georges. He is first-class man, a
splendid officer. who is giving his
whole time. and attention to the
work. He deserves reelection.

THE ONLY SOLUTION.
EAST Oregonian, July 81

Voters of Oregon will be compelled
to pass upon 80 legislative measures
when they vote this fall The number
is entirely too large and many of the
measures are OF such nature that
voters simply cannot hope to Judge
intelligently as to their merits.
Conspicuous in this class are the
eight county division bills that have
been filed. Each OF Ahese measures
pertains to an issue that is strictly To-
cal in character. The people of the
state at large are not interested in
county division disputes. The average
voter cannot hope to judge of the
merits of these division bills. From
one side he will be lshowered with lit
erature favorable to division: from
another quarter he will be implored
to vote against division. Often people
residing in the proposed new counties
do not want division 20 carry.
Now what is the poor voter to do?
In the view of the East Oregonian
there is but one logical way to settle
county division problems. All those
problems should be held in allegiance
until law Sas been enacted leaving
the settlement OF such disputes to the
people who are directly interested in
them. 1t is pretty certain that such a
law win be passed by the next legisla
ture. Such law was passed by the
last legislature. but fo- some unknown
reason was vetoed by Governor Cham
beriain following the close of the ses
sion.

today an uninhabited wilderness.
Nos. S42,343. page ia. ConstiAI-
tional amendment prohibiting the
manufacture and sale of intoxicat-
ing liquor. This is a measure ON
which sentiment will play an import
ant part. The argument part is
largely reduced to the one point: Is
state prohibition practical and effic-
lent. However a very large number
of voters will prefer the present
county option law because they be-
lieve in each county settling the
matter for itself.
Nos. 352-S53. page 149. To pro

SELFISH MOTIVES BEHIND 1T.
Office Seekers promoting County Di-
vision Schemes.


vision Schemes.
Avowed office seekers seem to be
among those who are promoting the
cause OF county butchering in Oregon,
according to the Grants Pass Obser-
yer in its issue of July 29. Futher-
more, the people generally have no
conception of local situations as af-
fecting counties where the cry for
division is heard. Only about one in
ten voters would know what they
were voting for. Therefore, the best
way is to vote mo" to all of the
measures, urges the Observer:
1.-TWO years ago the people voted to
form the new county of Hood River
out of section of Wasco county. 1t
is safe to say that 80 voters out of
hundred had no acquaintance with the
conditions or geography of the county
they divided. The voters will be asked
next November to do a good deal more
of this kind of county butchering. Peo-
pie who are not at all acquainted with
the various territories, will be asked
to slice Crook county and make a new
county to be called Deschutes. 1t is
proposed to carve up Lane and Doug
las counties, and constitute the three
new counties, Umpqua, Williams and
Nesmith. Umatilla is prey for two
proposed new counties, Orchard and
Hudson. A piece of Grant county is
to be asked to make Clara county,
while Harney and Malheur may be
clipped off little to make room for
Otis. 1t is really scandalous and only
possible under the initiative. The
trouble is that the performance is just
commencing and it is not easy to see
where it will end. The best way, the
only right way, is to vote mo" to all
these local measures, of which the
people as "a whole have no informa-
ton. The Observer has no idea OF
the rights in any of these cases, but
believes they are just selfish schemes
to make little towns county capitals
and supply several good county offices
for the promoters"

Legislators Want Their Paw.

The members of the General Assem-
bly,. who only receive a pittance for
their services, SIS day, have been un-
able to receive any pay and besides
have had the depleted condition of the
State treasury dinned in their ears so
much the last two weeks, that the in
PRODUCTION of joint resolution making
the rest of the State officials take
pot luck with them is seriously con,
templated.
1t is planned to appropriate the
money on hand among the State Off
Gals including the members of the
General. .eAssembly in proportion to
their salaries. Many of the soIons.
who admit they are on hand-te-mouth
basis fer the lack of their per diem,
say that it is only fair that the other
officials who draw fat salaries from the
State. should be willing to share the
money with them, and that no real
objection can be advanced to this
method of each getting a part of the
money that is coming to them.

The things that contribute in great
est degree to swell the cost Of living
in the United States is thus briefly set
forth by the Philadelphia Press:
A tariff levied ostensibly for reven-
he. but actually to advance the price
of commodities in the home market;
Costly naval and military outlay;
Inflated pension payments;
Extravaganza in all departments of
the public service, and
Vast municipal expenditure.
Billions Uf dollars are thus annually
drawn from the pockets of the people
in the shape of higher rents. c)stlier
clothing, dearer food and increased
taxes. The distance between producer
and consumer is further increased by
the intrusion of combinations and
hungry and exacting go-betweens who
all compel enormous tribute.
Is it airy wonder it is such far cry
from the OK to the steak? From the
sheep to the blanket?
Of course there are contributing
causes of dearness-the swelling sup
ply of gold; the drift from the land to
the marts; the growth of dem and con-
sequent upon disapproportionate growth
of population to growth of production.
They do not explain why it costs more
to live in the United States than in
any other civilized country. When we
pull down the barriers TO trade we
shall also pull down prices. When we
restore governmentWe shall
restore lower cost of living.
