Mad at Paint.

Csc a gallon for paint is about
$3.50 on the average job, and lots OF
men waited last year for that; they
got mad; wouldn't pay it.
There are times to get mad and
refuse to pay; but when ones prop
erty needs protecting is no time to
get mad and not paint.
Besides, it costs more to get mad
and wait than to paint.
Getting mad doesn't do any good
to your property; paint does it good
by keeping-out water; no water 10
rot: no paint, some water and rot;
and a little rot is more than enough
to make a man liberal towards MS
painter and paint.
Paint costs not a cent. All the
paint in the world, so long as II
keeps out water, costs not a cent.

43 NAMES ON THE TICKET
A LENGTHY BALLOT WILL CON-
FRONT VOTER WEDNESDAY.
Only Contests of Local Interest Are
For Congress, SOlicitOr-General
and Representative.

Forty-three names are on the bal
lot that Terrell county voters will
have to vote in the primary election
Wednesday. Its length
is due to the fact that there are
so many state contests.
The average voter will probably
find 1t rather difficult to make up
his mind for whom to cast his bal
lot in some of the contests for state
offices. Many of the candidates have
not been in Terrell county, and they
are unknown to the voters either
personally or by representation in
many = faL~@S,
There are three candidates for
governor, two for United States SEN
ator, two. for attorneX-general, two
for commissioner of education, three
for commissioner of agriculture,
three for prison commissioner, two
for Judge of the court of appeals,
two for pension commissioner, and a
host of candidates for the various
positions of the railroad commits
sion. In the contests of local interest
there are three candidates for con-
gress, two for solicitor-general and
two for representative.
Few Candidates Have Been Here.
Very few of the candidates for
state offices have done personal work
in Terrell county. Jos. H. Hall Wis
tied Dawson early in the campaign,
but his opponents, Jack Slaton
and Hooper Alexander have not been
here. ]. D. Price, candidate for COM
missioner of agriculture, and j. j.
FIynt, for railroad commissioner, are
the only other aspirants for state
offices who have been in Dawson.
Friends of Mr.. Slaton claim with
seeming confidence that he will easily
carry the county, but the supporters
of Mr.. Hall dispute that and contend
that the Lion of Bibb has a good
chance to land Terrells two con-
vention votes.
For congress Messrs. Mercer,
Crisp and Shaw have all made an
active canvass, and each claims to
be confident of elections It is ex-
pected that all Of them will poll
large vote. Terrell will, of course,
give it's home candidate, Mr.. Mer-
Ger, a big majority.
The hardest fought contest has
perhaps been that between B. T. Cas-
fellow and Billie Bush for solicitor
general, and the result is awaited
with considerable interest in the five
counties comprising the Pataula cir
cult. Each of them claims that he
will be an easy winner, but the safest
prediction is that it will be close
race.
The race for the legislature be-
tween Representative B. F. Melton
and Hon. D. c. Pickett was about
as tame and uninteresting as was
ever known in a local campaign un7
til the latter part of last week, when
considerable ginger was injected into
it and it livened up suddenly. Since
then the dear people have been duly
apprised that a contest was on and
their assistance in electing the right
man impOrtuned.

given the consolation prize. Both
prizes were hand-embroidered hand
kerchiefs.

/ 1t is said that no devott2e of to-
bacco ever graduated at the head OF
his class at Harvard. 1t was recent
ly announced as a result of investiga-
that the average cigarette smoker
is at least ten per cent below the
highest average standing at high
school
When a boy in his teens becomes
steady cigarette user, demand is
created in his physical organization
for other and worse stimulants. After
the cigarette, as natural order, comes
drink, narcotics and the deluge.
1t is said that in this country no
less than 1900 boy in their teens are
learning the cigarette habit every
day. 1t means that 1900 boys are
punging recklessly into practice
that brings no benefit, that makes
huge money outgo, that harms
them physically, that INJURIES item
morally, and that will remain a hand
leap on their usefulness as long as
they continue it.
No dog will smoke a cigarette. A
little nicotine on the tongue Of
dog will kill it. No brute animal uses
tobacco. Only boys in their teens ant
grown men, and, alas, a few idiotic
society women, smoke cigarettes.
A clean, true boy in his teens who
doesn't smoke is a glorious object
He is full of vigor and buoyancy Of
life. There is so much OF
good, so much of delight, so much of
promise and so much of usefulness
before him,
What a pity when boy in his
teens has so failed to re1lize his poss
Utilities that he has plunged into
the cigarette habit and had to be
arrested Oregon Journal.

BOYS AND CIGARETTES

-Four Portland boys in their teens
have been arrested for smoking cigar
ettees.
II the boys in their teens only knew
what cigarettes mean to them, they
would stop the practice without ar
rest. 1.-THE cigarette has grip on
boyhood,' said Judge Lindsay, ''and
il invites all the other demons of
habit to come and add to the degra-
dation."
Cigarettes now and cigars later
mean a heavy financial drain. By not
sncFSing the boy in his teens can.
at fifty draw his check for probably
$4,000 more than if smoker
The boy in his teens with cigar
etc between his lips is at once under
suspicion. The business man of whom
he seeeks employment has learned to
doubt him. 1t is known that use of
cigarettes dulls the conscience. 1t
tends to kill the moral sense. 1t
STILES the higher and more refined
qudllIleS III the growing boy. 1t DIM
finishes his energy and tends 10
make him languid. 1t takes away
from him the very qualities that
the emlopyer wants.
Excessive cigarette smoking mater
ially increases the heart action, and
once the habit is acquired the whole
trend is toward excessive use.' The
eir is drawn into the lungs to meet
tbs blood and carry off impurities
When that pure air is thickly laden
with smoke, the faithful heart pumps
and pumps away to keep the circula-
ton going is denied the pure fresh,
uncontaminaed air nature provides

the threads of the noxious weed are
not curbed
The result of the discussion was
the passing of a resolution whereby
the club will communicate with the
Department OF Agriculture at Wash
ington ard also the department of the
Canadian government to see what in
formation can be secured first hand
as to the experiences in other sec
tons and what the most successful
means of battling with the pest haze
been. The club has written several
letters to the Oregon Agricultural
college, which have been unanswered
and as a last resort appeal will be
made to the agricultural departments
