CHANGE OF PARTY AT
POLLS is HELD LEGAL

| SALEM, July 21.-The right of {
voter in Oregon to change his party
affiliation on primary election day ano
| while the primary election is in pro
gress, was upheld Thursday by Judges
Bingham and Kelley of the Marion
county circuit court, sitting en- banc
in sustaining the motion filed by at
torneys for Governor Olcott, to strike
from the petition field by Charles
Hall allegations to the effect that
voters registered as other than repub-
licans had registered at the pools dur
ing the recent primary election, con-
trary to the law, and had cast their
votes for Olcott.
The change of party affiliation at
the polls must be accompanied by the
filing of what is known as "hlank +"
by which the voter cancels his prior
registration, the court explained.
These blanks are returned by the
election boards to the county clerk
for use in correcting the registration
lists.
Olcott Claims Victory
While the court upheld the right of
registration at the polls as a direct
provision of the oregon primary law,
it took occasion to remark that 'the
court does not attempt, to pass upon
the wisdom of this statue"
The action OF the court on this
point, the only point argued in the
preliminary slSirmish in the Hall-Ol-
colt recount controversy Wednesday
is regarded by Ofcott adherents as
single victory inasmuch, it is contend
ed that this point offered the. only
possibility on which a charge of fraud
could be based. Proof of fraud, il Is
pointed out, is essential to {, recount
of the ballots in the present case.
The answer of Olcott's attorneys to
the other allegations contained in the
Hall petition will be filed with the
court next Tuesday and argument o
the case on its merits are expected to
be started the latter part of next week

TOURISTS ROADS
ARE FAVORED BY
. HIGHWAY BOARD
Commissioners Here Last
Evening Show No Zeal for
Roads of Economic Import. /
;t'QE
NEED OF GRANT COUNTY
EXPLAINED TO MEMBERS
Main Hope for Funds Rests
Forestry Fund; Commission
Sees Bad Grade Today.

The forest service is really anxious
to have the north and south road to
Grant county constructed but the state
highway commission as now constitut-
ed is not sold on the value of such
economic roads and believes that all
available money should be used for
completing and maintaining the tour
ist road system of the state.
This seems a fair analysis of the
situation disclosed here last evening
when the question of the Grant
county road was threshed out before
the highway commission However
there are some bright spots in the
situation and one of them is that the
commission today made the long con-
templated trip over the road. Ii is the
first time The commission has ever
been. over the John Day grade and
perhaps when they have seen what
it is like they will have more SYM
pathy for the folk in southern Una
tilla and northern Grant who have to
use that road.
Another bright spot consists in the
statement by District Forester Cecil,
made last evening, that the forest SER
vice will probably have $4,000 for the
road this year. Chairman Booth had
referred to this money as being avail
able next year and had said the forest
survey. would be made this year. How
ever there is a chance that if the $780,
600 can be had this year another sim
liar amount might be procured next
year. To do this however the en-
dorsement of the state highway COM
mission must be secured wherefore
the value of the trip south today.
At q meeting in the Commercial as
sociation rooms last evening strong
arguments in favor of state help on
the road south were made. Senator
Roy w. Ritner presided and presented
figurest showing that Umatilfa coun-
ty has devoted practically million
dollars to cooperation on state high
ways thus far. Fred Steiwer explain
cd in detail the necessity for the
Grant county road, how many stock
men in that county bank here and de-
sire a road whereby they may come
north. Mr.. Steiwer gave facts show
ing that the John Day highway does
not solve the road problem for Grant
county people and that they want
roads leading to large nearby towns,
such as Pendleton. In support of his
contention Mr.. Steiwer gave much
data.
Cold Shoulder Shown
n ". S. Caverhill. county commits
sioner from Northern Grant, ably
seconded the appeal for the road.
Chairman Booth was the first OF the
commissioners to respond. He indi-
Gated a "cold shoulder attitude to-
ward the proposition under discussion
and explained the value of the tourists
roads being cvonstructed. Messers
Yeon and Barratt also spoke but they
offered no hope of state aid on the
Grant county road though Mr.. Bar
raft pointed out the importance Of the
highway to the country as whole.

RETTFR MOVIES.

THERE is a noticeable improve
ment in the movineg pictures today
over what they were a year ago. The
producers aremaking an effort to give
the public more wholesome scenarios
and this is sure to meet with general
commendation.
The recent production of "The Lit
tie Minister" which was shown at
the Liberty theatre, was one of the
most delightful films seen in Mexico
in some time. 1t was as near per-
feet as a screen production as any
thing the writer has yer
Tastes differ and to meet the de-
mand of the theatre going public it
is required that various styles of pic
lures be made. However the whole
SINE trend in every phase of the film
productions will bring the movies
nearer to their real place in the So
cial life of the country.
Moving pictures can be made q
a great educational force for good
and we are glad to see them moving
steadily in that direction.

LARGE CROWD
ATTENDS MEETING
HERE WEDNESDAY

Over a hundred farmers attended
the meeting which was held at the
Barnes-B Boyd Motor Company We'd
nesday afternoon. Addresses were
made by H. C. Wright, head Of the
Fordson department of the st, Louis
branch of the Ford Motor Company;
D. B. Jones, an expert on power
farming and Gus Delaney of Edna,
Missouri.
Mr.. Wright told of the develop
ment of the tractor IN the last few
years and described the process by
which the machine is made.
Mr.. Delaney, vino is a banker in
Edna, was the first nan to raise 300
acres of corn in that section of the
country without the use Of horses or
mules. Mr.. Delaney is well acquaint-
ed with the financial problems now
confronting the farmers and is con-
WINGED that greater use of
power machinery on the farm will
decrease the cost Of prouction by elm
mating the overhead expenses and
turning non-productive acres into
profit.
At 3 o'clock those attending the
meeting went to the Mcmillan High
School Auditorium where they saw a
motion picture depicting the making
Of the tractor from the time the
metal is taken out Of the earth until
the finished product is sold.' Follow
ing the picture, D. B. Jones made an
address on power farming. MIR.
Jones said that the greatest problem
Of today was that Of production
as America must continue 10 be an
exporting rather than importing
country. He impressed upon the
farmers that they r running the
biggest business in the world and
must use ~up-to-date methods If they
are to be up to the standard Of et-
ficiency which conditions now de-
mand.
The local bankers, Mr.. Wright,
Mr.. Jones and Mr.. Delaney were
guests of the Barnes-B Company
at dinner at the Hotel Hoxsey We'd
nesday. evening. Informal talks were
made by the representatives of the
Ford Company and Mr.. Delaney on
power machinery as a good invest
ment for the farmers.
