"It has substituted:

PROGRESSIVE VOTES
COST $40 APIECE
Out Of 80 Registered, IS
VOted---Ben 0lCOH Gets
Six Of These

1t cost Marion county $40 for each
Progressive vote east at the primary
election held Friday May 10. Al
though 33 progressives nad registered,
only Is cast their votes. 80 total of
1920 ballots were printed of the pro-
gressive ticket, 20 oIIicial and 90 sam
pie ballots, for eacn of the 10 voting
precincts in the county
The total cost of the progressive
ballots and delivery to the precincts
was about $50. In each of the pre-
cincts the progressive ballots had to
be handled separately, and taking into
consideration the clerical worn every
where, the cost to the county totaled
close to $3.50.
The progressive party was born four
years ago, but at the end Of this year,
as a dominant party ceases to exist
and it will not come before the voters
at a primary election. The law prohib-
its 4 political organization casting
more than 20 per cent of the total vote
from holding convention, If it casts
more than five per cent of the total
vote, it becomes a party and may hold
conventions, but its candidates wnl not
be voted on at the primaries.
According to the abstract of the
vote of the progressive party in the
county clerk s office, the largest num-
Der of votes received by any one man
was 10, and tsese were on the ticket
for presidential electors. Roosevelt re-
ceived II votes for president and there
was one peace at any price man, for
Henry Ford has total of one vote to
his credit for president.
The progressive strongholds and the
number Of votes cast are as follows:
Aurora ]; Brooks, /; Rosedale, Il Sa-
lem precinct !, ]; Salem precinct 5,
l; Salem precinct 70, |; Salem pre-
cinct 13, !; st. Paul, >; ,orth Silver
ton, .; East Woodbun, l. Although
but Is votes were cast by the progress
sives, the impression among po.-,lcians
in general is that the average progress
sive knew his vote would be practically
thrown away, aid for this reason reg
istered with the republicans, from
which he originally came.
len Olcott was remembere in Rose
dale by one vote and it was from this
prune district that enry Ford receiv-
ed his one vote for president Taeo-
dore burton has one friend voting in
precinct 5, Salem. Walter Keyes was
remembered in the Rosedae district
with one vote.
Roosevelt received four votes in Sa-
lem, two from St. aul and one each
from aurora, brooks, North Silverton
and East Woodburn, making total Of
IL. ram johnson o. ,.nfornia ap-
peared to the progressives as proper
timber for vice president, as he was
given eight votes.
Seymour Jones, for representative,
was not forgotten in the progressive
fold, as he was remembered lay one
vote, while W. AL Jones was somewhat
stronger, with a total of three. A. NJ
Clough for coroner received ais share,
with the one vote, while /. II. m,Aa-
hon polled total of two votes, as rep
resentative in congress.
Ben Olcott also ran well. The vote
was rather gathering, but when total
ed, it was shown he was sat,.l.ctOry
las secretary of state to six of the fif-
teen progressive votes east.

Stomach troubles such as indigestion,
wind, and omlch-ache are simply evi-
dence that fermentation is taking place
in the food contents Of the stomach,
causing the formation of gas and acids.
Wind distends the stomach, and causes
that full, oppressive feeling sometimes
known as heartburn, while the acid ir-
ritates and inflames the delicate lining
Of the stomach. The trouble lies en-
tirely i'll the fermenting food. Such fer
mentaton is unnatural, and acid for
nation is not only unnatural, but may
involve most serious consequences if
not corrected. To stop or prevent fer
mentation and to neutralize the acid, a
teaspoonful OF bisurated magnesia,
probably the best and most effective
corrector Of acid stomach known should
be taken in a quarter Of glass Of
water Immediately after eating, or
whenever wind OF acidity is felt. This
stops the fermentation, and neutralizes
the acidity in a few moments. Bisurat-
ed magnesia can be obtained from any
druggist. II enables the stOach to do
its work properly without being hin
dered by poisonous gas and dangerous
acids.

Oregon city Enterprise; One hundred
and eight steelhead salmon were res
cued from holes below the falls Monday
and placed in the upper river by Depu-
ty Fish Wardens Jewell, Parker and

and the water which went through the
mills during the week went over the
falls, flooding the rocks below the falls.
Sunday the fish fought their way up
the current, and when the mills resumed
operations Monday morning they were
left stranded in holes in the rocks.
Scores Of fish are caught each Mon
day in this way, and the deputy game
wardens have found il necessary to lift
them out Of the holes, carry them 10

Candidate for the Republican Nomination for State Auditor
MISS REDFlELD RECOMMENDED

Miss Eehtl e. Redfield, candidate
for the Republican nomination o
state superintendent of public instruc
| ton, has received the stronest en-
dorsement by City Schools Superin
| tendent +. W. Simmonds. Mr.. Sim.
monds' work In the Lewiston schools
has given him exceptional opportmi.
ty for Judging the administration OF
Miss Redfield as county school SUI
perntendent and her equipment for
the more important duties of state SUI
perintendent.
An endorsement coming from Su.
perintendent Simmonds is of special
value because of his high standing in
the educational circles Of the state and
in fact the entire northwest His ad-
mnistration of the Lewiston schools
has been copied i'm many of the large
eastern cities. his courses for high
school work have been endorsed and
recomme nded by the educational as
soc.ations and his general efficiency
as an educator and his ability as an
administrator are generally recognized
by those familiar with educational
work. In speaking Of Miss Redfield s
candidacy, Mr. Simmonds said:
Il regard Miss Redfield as one of
the most successful county superin-
tendents | have ever known. Her
successful experience in rural and
city school work, her thorough grasp
of educational problems, together
with her splendid ex cutive baility,
make her emiaently fitted for the i'm
portant office of state superintendent,
to which she aspires.
Miss Redfie!d's wellknown fear
lessness and courage in adhering in
what she knows to be right in sodv-
ing educational problems, is safe as
surance that she will discharge the
duties of her office faithfully and eff
ficiently ."-Lewiston Morning Tr!-

In all probability this will be the
last issue of The Republican that
will be gotten out under the personal
supervision and direction of the pub
Usher. Though he will very likely
have to keep control OF the paper UNI
I'll the expiration OF his lease, the
first OF next March, the active man
agement of the paper will be in the
hands OF another man as the rspre,
sentative OF the publisher and lease
holder. This should. not be taken
as an indication that We have in the
least lost faith in the ultimate sue
cess and rehabilitation OF this town
and the country surrounding it, for
such is not the case. Our confidence
has not been shaken in the least but
conditions have arisen that make to
our advantage, from a financial stand
point, to give up our labors here.
The newspaper business here affords
only moderate remuneration, and
since we have an opportunity to go
into one of the best fields in the
state, We feel that we must accept the
offer In justice to our own wellbeing.
During the short stay in this COM
munity we have received a great
many fayors from the people and have
been granted the hand of good fellow
ship. Our one great regret Ia that
we have been able to do so little for
the community and for the country.
1t is our hope that things will begin
to pick up in the very near future,
and that the development will never
cease until such time as Mountain
Home takes her proper place as one
Of the leading towns of the state,
and this section of the country be
comes recognized as one of the richie
and most prosperous in Idaho, We
are unable to give the name of the
man who will take charge as no deti-
mite arrangements have yet been
made, but 1t is hoped that a good
man will be secured, and We bespeak
for him the same cordial reception
that we were given.

CONSIDERATION.

AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 1l.-CandIdatcs
for the thirty fifth legislature are giving
considerable time to discussion Of the Glib
son bill, a measure which practically pro
vides for the repeal of the Robertson in

Harry J. Jordan, member of the house from
McLennan county, and q candidate for re-
election, II shall certainly support the
measure, a. ! believe in turning Texas
loose"
Expressions of this character are heard
daily from other candidates on their visit
to the capital. Governor Ferguson j. also
a champion Of the measure.
