FUTILITY AND FOLLY OF MISKEPi
RESENTATION.
M
ISREPRESENTATION and false
hood never pay. The Individ
ual or the organization which
resort to them Is either foolish or
jgnorant or both
When the Coqullle Sentinel states
us It does in its last Issue that about
140 Republicans attended the Coos
County Republican assembly it in
dulges in a wilful and deliberate He.
The editor of The Sentinel was secre
tary of the assembly and he knows
there wore not half 140 Republicans
present.
To bolster up this foolish and futile
falsehood The Sentinel prints a list
of the delegates that were selected
to attend the assembly. In this list
North Marshflold is accredited with
thirteen delegates, as follows:
North Marshfleld Dr. C. W. Tow
er, F. P. Norton, M. J. Butler, D. L.
Buckingham, H. Lockhnrt, M. C. Hor
ton, Albert Sellg, Jens Hanson, J.
Luse, E. C. Hall, H, Sengstacken, C.
Nasburg, A. D. Wa'cott.
As a matter of fact, North Marsh
Held was represented or rather mis
represented by two, E. O. Hall and D.
L. Buckingham. Of the other names
at least three publicly renounced and
repudiated their selection as dele
Kates bcause they believe in the direct
primary as a ' State law and are
against the assembly. Jens Hansen,
J, A. Luse and A. D. Wolcott are
names given as delegates and each
man of them Is against the assembly
unci did not attend.
Another notorious fact Is that there
were less votes cast at the caucus at
which these delegates were selected
than there wero delegates.
This Is a fair sample of the meth
ods by which the ring leaders seek to
crowd the assembly down the throats
of Coos county Republicans. But the
yank aud file will have something to
say about It later, and when they do
the men who are identified with the
assembly may lmvo cause to regret
their promlneuce.
No man or group of men wits' ever
.-Jncorely desirous of attaining justice
for himself or others or who wished
tu promote n new Idea who could not
oiTure It more certainly and securely
ly honest, honornblo and tru'.hful
means than by misrepresentation and
falsehood. The Times will stand for
no such methods nor the men behind
ihein.
The- Myrtle Point Enterprise seek 3
to become an apo'oglst for tho ass::r.
ijly by picking out a typographical er
ror in The Times as a matter of cen
sure. The Times repoior wrote that
ihoro were C7
v;nvo tho names as proof. The lluo-
Truth Is mighty and will prevail.
The assembly program is merely
the new gear for the old machine.
This Is evident by every movement
since Its inauguration. Falsehood,
misrepresentation and dark lantern
methods. The Times still stands as
It has always stood, as the representa
tive of the rank and file of the Repub
licans of Coos county. Tho Times
moves Into the Insurgent column and
will "hoe Its own row," along with
the men of the party who have some
other purpose than "rule or ruin,"
and the blatant arrogance of a falso
dlptatlon that finds Its limit only in
the personal, selfishness of the little
coterie that shall attempt this thing.
The day Is past when a handful of
men in Portland and in this city and
co.unty can say what shall be done in
the nanje of the party here and who
shall do it and how.
The attempt of the central commit
tee to usurp all the authority of tho
party organization is intolerable. We
have had all we want of "skull-dug-gery,"
and the people are In no tem
per or mood to stand for its revival.
The Republicans of Wisconsin held
an assembly the other day, but there
was nov thought or suggestion of
evading the State primary law by dic
tating a ticket. The Republicans got
together and discusged party princi
ples and platform. That's the as
sembly .hat Tho Times favors and
that It asked- he held In Coos county.
The Portland ring do not want that
kind of an assembly. They want to
dictate to the party who shall be Its
nominees.
Above all things, The Times is de
sirous of a "square deal" within the
party Hues. It desires to have the
party reorganized upon this basis.
This would afford a unanimous oppor
tunity for the entire party to align
itself and declare its platform and
principles and then go into action
with the best of partisan faith and
cheer and zeal. Such an assembly
would make for a revivification ot
the old spirit of activity, success and
victory. This program of a massing
of old and new men In an honest at
tempt at reorganization with all the
old zest and smiles and cheers and
rational expression that once marked
the party and its career would be suc
cessful but a machine-dominated as
sembly operated from and at the be
hest of Portland never.
Such a system put Into effect at
the capkal would have a beneficent
influence on all American cities. We
have not yet learned that the indi
vidual should be Willing to sacrifice
something for tho benefit of the
whole. The more beautiful a city Is
the more pride will its citizens take
in it, and the more in earnest will
they be that It be well goevrned.
PEOPLE OX TRIAL.
Tl
CITY IMPROVEMENT.
EFEREXCE was made not long
since to the fact that Congress
was considering a bill, which
has since been passed constituting
an art commission to control t1io se
lection of pictures and statutes to be
purchased by the government or
erected in any public place. The de
sirability of extending control, so as
to regulate the character and height
of buildings, was referred to, and It
will be an encouragement to those
who hope for the Improvement of
American cities that there has been
brought forward a measure which
will, If adopted and found workable,
help to make the capital the beauti
ful city It ought to be, equal in sym
metry and architectural effect to any
in tho world. In situation, In its
general plan, broad avenues and
streets, parks and open spaces, Its
public buildings, and in its ca
pability to become one of the great
est and most splendid cities of all
time, It is unsurpassed if not un-equaled.
But there has been lacking the
willingness to sacrifice In any degree
individual taste or preference as to
the stlo and character of structure
to be erected in any locality. Rather
Ins it seemed often to be the delib-j
orate purpose of architects and build
ers to produce an effect as Inharmon
ious and incongruous us possible with
the environment of the houses they
have put up. The tout ensemble of
a block which should be treated as a
unit has been wholly disregarded and
any consideration of adjoining or
neighboring properties altogether
neglected. Illustrations of this can
be found In nil parts of the city and
In all our cities, and whereevcr found
mar their beauty and help to fix lower
HEY TELL us the assembly can
didates will be on the primary
ballot "on equal' terms" with
other candidates. Then how is
Chairman George to carry out his
promise to give us "beter officials?"
If all the candidates are to be "on
equal terms," what Is the use of
holding an assembly?
The hope and desire of the assem
blyltes Is that their candidates will
have the advantage. If that was
not their purpose, they would not, In
violation of law, hold an assembly.
Their game Is to concentrate on as
sembly candidates and to see division
and distraction among opponents of
the assembly.
If once thev can win bv the nlan
Oregon will be theirs. Ono defeat
will prevent future candidates from
seeking a nomination in the open pri
mary, the primary law will become
Inoperative, voters will cease going
to the polls on primary day and the
assembly-cbnvention will be supreme.
Or, what is more certain and more
deadly, an assembly Governor and
assembly Legislature will, by attach
ing the emergency clause to bills,
carve and slash the direct primary
out of recognitiin, will take direct
selection of Senator out of the hands
of the electorate, and the people will
bo powerless to prevent. The men who
are for the assembly are the 16.354
who voted against It In the beginning,
have been against It ever since and
will bo against it forever. They op
posed the 56,205 who voted for it,
who have seen their judgment con
firmed by the splendid results the sys
tem has achieved, and who, in the
peace, the prosperity, the clean State
government and orderly legislative
sessions see not the slightest reason
for a change.
The issue is whether this disgrun
tled minority which was disgruntled
In the beginning, is disgruntled now
and will be disgruntled always, Is to
rule In Oregon or whether the people
will rule. The contention of the as
sembly Is that the people are Incom
petent and must be directed by repre
sentative leaders. It is as to their
competency that the people are on
trial, and the test, In the next fall's
election, will decide whether or not
they are competent to govern, or
must be governed. Portland

Why not make your show windows work 18
hours a day instead of i 2?
f People have more time AFTER DARK to
examine the displays 'in your windows than
they have during the busy daylight hours,
A well arranged, well lighted show window is
like a handsome picture in a frame That is
why people stop to look at it at night although
they pass it by in the day. BUT THE NEXT
DAY THEY COME IN AND BUY.
fl Modern ELECTRIC show window lighting
brings increased public esteem and increased
PATRONAGE.
Let our ( New Business Department explain
the small cost of good show window lighting
and how it is done.

'Bout the mother, saintly, sweet;
But you'll have a time a-searchin',
Eyes will be er-achin' bad,
Ere yo'll overtake a poem

Of her old man sottin near.

All the bouquets made for mother,
Xot a bloom for pore old dnd.
