tics, save under extraordinary cir
cumstances, when some great good
can be accomplished by such
course. These circumstances do not
exist at present. , The Republican
convention gave to the voters of
Wasco, Sherman and Gilliam coun
ties candidates for the legislature
which it should be a pleasure for
every Republican to support. They
are men who have labored long and
successfully .in their respective com
munities, and deserve whatever
honor may be attached to a seat in
the legislature.
The candidates on the Democratic
ticket, also, are men of ability and
character! Personally nothing can
be said against them, but when by
any political bargain they seek Pop
uhstic support, and in return expect
their friends to vote for a Populist
candidate, their defeat becomes
matter of necessity. There were too
man Populists in the la.t legislature
some of them, we are sorry to say,
were there under the guise of Re
publicans.
Let us have no more of this action
for policy only. The Republicans
should see' the danger that may at

until the election. It is really not
so much a matter of principle with
those who have brought out the
judge as it is to make sure the de

will stand solid for Judge Bennett,
his election is assured. The contest
is between Bennett and Northup.

Judge Bennett is out for election.
There can be no doubt about it
He is prosecuting the campaign with
all his old-time vigor, and his efforts,
if made in a different pursuit, would
undoubtedly result in success. . We
doubt very mnch, however, if Judge
Beunett will leceive many votes
save from .Democrats and Populists.
Shortly after his nomination the
friends of Mr. Bennett gave out that
he was in favor of a tariff on wool ;
that he believed it right that the
wool-grower should be protected in
order that the results of his industry
should be large enough to reimburse
him for time and money spent. This
was a great concession for a Demo
crat to make, especially in a wool-
growing district, and local pride
among some Republicans was
strong enough to overlook the sud
den flop and to cause Judge Bennett
to expect that he would receive some
votes from outside of his own
party.
But all this is shattered. Judge
Bennett delivered a speech at Pen
dleton Saturday, when he failed to
reiterate his previous statements re
garding wool, , la tact, be toot the
opposite side and condemned pro
tection save for revenue only. His
remarks are quite in line with this
statement:
"I am not a protective tariff man,"
he said. "I don't believe in the
princip'c of protection. I don't be
lieve that' tbe government has a right
to take from the farmer of the land
a tribute to build up the m ana fac to
urers. If the West must be subserv
ient to the East, if I must be a
traitor to my people, I am not a
Demociat. We want a reasonable
tariff for revenue only."
This is Judge Bennett's true posi
tion. He is a free trader in belief,
and his statements about a tariff on
wool for protection's sake are made
because he well knows that to pub
licly advocate free wool, with the
sheepmen in the humor they now
aie, 1' political suicide.
The people of Eastern Oregon will
not be deceived in Mr. Bennett's
position on this important matter.
We have had enough of Democratic
free trade. Let us not give it fur
ther endorsement by sending to con
gress, from tbe greatest wool -grow
ing section in the United States a
member of the party which has done
all it could to cripple the industry
upon which we depend for our pros
perity. (Jan it oe urged that we
may regain prosperity through the
same agency that has brought us
disaster? If Eastern Oregon in
cline to any such belief, let the flag
be folded and the drum cease to
beat:' the battle belongs to the
enemy.
stated that an expression of the
people in the matter would be a
good thiDg, and that an issue could
be made of it in the coming election.
