SUFFRAGE Confined to Males.

1.-THE election of a county school SUI
Derintendent is not common school
district election, but is county cleo
ton, and since it is county election
the right of suffrage in such election
is confined to male voters" This is
the opinion of Superintendent of Pub
lie instruction Barksdale Hamlet, ex-
pressed in communication to number
of candidates for the nomination for
county superintendent. He adds that
he regrets that he finds himself to
hold to this opinion, as he favors wom-
en- voting for county superintendent,
and he hopes that the next legislature
will remove the obstacles in the way
of their taking part in the nomination
and election. The failure of the law
to give women the right to vote for
county superintendent does not affect
their right to hold the office. 1t is ex'
Dected that test case will be brought
before the Court of Appeals before the
General Assembly convenes, as the
opinion of that court in the case OF
Mrs. Nannette NJ Bullock against
Theo. Lewis, county clerk of Fayette
county, left the question open, and pro-
ceedings may be Instituted upon the
refusal of precinct election officers to
permit a woman to vote in the pri
mary.

Baker, Ore. Feb. 2S.-Charles Ped
icord a we'll known barber employed
by H. A. Mullins. in the Geiser
Grand barber shop. probably owes the
fact of his being alive today to a
gold watch which he carries.
While walking down Washington
street last evening, on his way home
from work he was accosted by a
rough looking man, who asked him
for -four bits to eat on" Pedicord
answered that there was nothing do
ing and started across Fourth street
He was followed by the man and
asked if that meant mo-" He was as
sured it did, when the stranger pulled
a knife and made a pass, striking
Pedicord near the region of the heart.
He made another pass, but the bar
Der raised his arm to ward off the
blow. Upon investigation he found
his coat and vest cut and large dent
had been made in the case of his
watch, which was in his vest pocket
over his heart, by the point of the
villains knife.
The man was of small stature, wore
small slouch hat tilted over on the
side of his head. and was evidently
under the influence of liquor He was
left handed.

{. OREGON LAND
NOT OvERPR|CED
Criticisms from Ill-Advised Sources
Said TO Hurt Cause: Hundreds of
Settlers Kept Away as Result.

Portland Ore, Feb. 2S.-Hundreds
of settlers are being kept from east
ern oregon because the condemnation
against over-priced land is applied,
not to the comparatively small tracts
where prices make criticism just but
to the whole country, declared E. E.
Cleaver of Pendleton, while In Port
land yesterday.
ANY quantity of first class irri-
gable lands and lands under irrigation
can be purchased in the different val
leys of eastern Oregon from $25 to
SIS an acre" declared Mr.. Cleaver.
Some of these valleys where pri-
ces are low and crops unusual are
John Day, Eagle, Grand Ronde, Wal
Iowa and the valleys of various
streams in Umatilla county. Some of
the best land near Hermiston can be
purchased at these prices.
But you never hear anything
about these opportunities. You'll hear
it said that in eastern Oregon
the prices asked of the unsuspecting
are $3.50 to $3.50 an acre.
Cause Is Injured.
Speeches were made in the irri-
cation congress which was held in
Portland recently, to this effect and
with such damage that ever since we
who are really interested in the set
Ting and development of eastern Ore
gon have been calling it the "irriga-
ting knockers congress-
For instance. 1 know of a 600
acre farm in John Day valley. 1t is
all under its own irrigation and can
develop 200 horse power from it's ir-
rigation bitches. 1t has 3S acres of
apples, it is all the best kind of pro-
ducing land and can be bought for
$50 an acre.
''I know of an 100 acre farm in
Umatilla county as good as the best
Butter creek land which can be
bought at SIS an acre and this is $25
less than the old government project
price for water right
''I could multiply these instances.
But the trouble is that those outside
talk as If eastern Oregon were but a
district of a few square miles where
reckless promoters and spectators
have formed a league to string the
unsuspecting settler, get from him all
his money and let him shift for him
self.
False Reports Hinder.
THAT isn't justice to the country
and until the facts are learned false
reports are going to hinder develop
ment. 1t Is lack of information on
the part of the majority that makes
II possible for designing minority to
get an audience"
Mr.. Cleaver insisted that more sure
returns can be obtained from eastern
Oregon irrigated lands than from the
Willamette valley, saying:
'The value of land Is based abso-
lutely on the production and the net
profit therefrom. Irrigated lands in
eastern Oregon with this basis are
worth $500 an acre because they will
produce a net profit in producing the
most staple crop known, alfalfa, and
feeding to cattle, a net annual profit
of $40 an acre. 1 mean by net hir-
ing all the work done, cultivating. ir-
rigating, water maintenance, taxes
and all labor being performed by day

the work and charging nothing for
his time. over 5000 acres in alfalfa
