MOOOrS HONORABLE RECORD.
gome of the demagogic, democratic
papers are trying to humbug and prej
udice careless voter by loudly pro
claiming hint to be a banker, and as
serting that bis bank "busted. Tbese
same fellows are daily seen cheek by
jowl with the alleged "detested" bank
ers of their own towns, without whose
s saints rice they would lose their own
paste pots and scissors. People who
have at least a little bit of sens sre
not fooled by soy such nonsense. It
is true that Mr. Moody is a banker of
The Dalles, and that his bank tempor
arily suspended, but it afterward paid
dollar for dollar. Is the Hon. C. M.
Donaldson's financial record as good?
"Comparisons are odious," hut we
challenge the democratic press to fight
it out on the line of the financial rec
ords of the two candidates.
During the panic of the last demo
cratic administration, when a 110,000
farm could not be sold for f 500 in
money, Mr. Moody's bank held largely
in the paper of farmers wham Ibey
had accommodated with loans. His
bank saw the hard times coming and
could easily have saved itself by sell
ing the property of its debtors at ruin
ous sacrifice to them. Other banks
did this and weathered the storm, but
it was the action of the captain throw
ing overboard his passengers to save
bis ship. Mr. Moody would not and
did not do it. He said to them : "I
will stay with you to my last dollar,
and my bank will share your misfor
tunes, win or lose." The result was
the bank was compelled to suspend,
but the farmers who saved their little
homes by the most generous, noble
hearted and disinterested actions of
Mr. Moody, will unanimously support
him for congress, regardless of party
affiliations. Appeals to anarchistic
prejudice against "bankers" will fail to
produce desired results in the face of
such noble acts as those. Pendleton
Republican.
Wi have been requested to print the
amount of tag paid by the various
candidates for county offices, and in
order to have the matter absolutely
correct we have made a careful exam
ination of the tax roll, now in the
hands of the sheriff, and find the fol
lowing foots to exist: The amount of
tax paid by Dr. J. E. Hall is 921.66;
by Mr. Fullerton, 116.81 ; by Mr. 3. G.
Watts, f30.M J by Mr. H. Henderson,
116.60; by W. N. Meserve, 126.97; by
J. N. Rice, nothing; by P. A. F rakes,
1141.68; by Jared West, 1 18.67; by
Dr. Edwin Boss, $10.17 ; by W. B. Dil
lard, $30.24. I. H. Copeland is on the
tax roll for $112.67, but just recently
sold his property, thus he paid no tax
this year, yet the fact remains that
Mr. Copeland has paid that amount
of tax in the county for many years,
while the amount charged to Vf. A.
Wood on the tax roll is only $5.32, yet
Mr. Wood is directly responsible for
the payment of 122.94. Martin White
pays $28.78; H. Moulton pays $8.38;
George Hayes, $16.07 ; Edwin Merrill,
$54.85; B. P. Morton, $13.21; Dr. A.
P. McLaren is not on the tax rolL
The total amount of tax paid by the
republican candidates is $276.27; by
the fusion candidates $180.70.
JUST M fEW TO ANSWER,
The opposition to Mr. Wm. Meserve,
candidate for sheriff on the republican
ticket, sre putting great stress upon
the report that Mr. Meterv charged
?5 for services as dork ol school dis
trict No. 33 in the year 1890. Mr.
Meserve was elected clerk of that dis
trict that year, and he served faith
fully. He emphatically states that he
did not promise to do the work for
nothing, before his election, but at the
annual settlement of the district's af
fairs Mr. Meserve asked $5 for his ser
vices, an the amount bad repeatedly
been allowed. At that parlioular
time Mr. Meserve says the reports were
unprepared, the census bad not been
taken, and be labored unceasingly un
til he had the district's affairs in good
shape; and so long as it had been cus
tomary to allow the clerk $5 for such
services, be believed tnmseii juauy en
titled to the fee.
For this fee of $5, which the pop
press is endeavoring to make a mount
ain out of, Mr. Meserve served two
years, for one year's service, less thsn
Mr. Rice chsrges for making one tax
deed, tbs proceeds from wbion Mr,
Rice appropriates to his own use.
But se Ions ss argument is placed
Id the form of questions, we wish to
ask J. N. Rice and his mouthpiece if
he did not pledge himself before the
election two years sgo to perform the
duties of sheriff for the salary and pay
his own deputy.
Will Mr. Rice sxplain to ths people
why it is that if he made such a prom
ise he did not keep that pledge and
oat out cf his own pocket the ex
penses incurred in recapturing those
two boys who escaped from the county
jail on the 2nd of October, 1896, in
stead of sending a bill into the county
court for their recapture of $14, when
the boys were no further away from
St. Helens than GobleT
Will Mr. Rice explain why he
charged the county $7 for taking Geo.
Upton to Portland, in the face of the
fact that he had pledged the people of
Columbia county to perform all the
duties of the sheriffs office for the
statutory salary?
Will J. N. Rice explain how it cost
hiru S7 to take George Upton to for!
land, when he (Rice) rides on one of
those much despised annual passesT
Does Mr. Rice call such "conduct
keeDinc his promises to the people!
Will Mr. Rice, sheriff of Columbia
county, explain to the people bow it is
that be feels such a keen interest iu
the welfare of the taxpayer iusofar as
reduction of expenses in tue way oi
reduced taxation is concerned, when
be (Rice) is not on the tax-roll of Co
lumbia county, and does not pay oue
cent of tax to this conntyr
Will Mr. Rice explain why be did
not pav Ed Carlson, as he promised
be would, for serving as keeper of cer
tain loss under attachment, in the case
of Fiak Johnson, when he (Bice) was
Maseie's deputy!
Will Mr. Rice explain why he so
violently bsndled a defenseless woman
in a certain borne in this county dur
ing the month of October, I897T
Why does Mr. Rice change his mind
so quickly about convention time.
when before the meeting oi tne con
vention he repeatedly stated to differ
ent persons that the sheriffs office
could not be ran for the salary and
oav the deputy out of that salary T
Why does Mr. Rice not (tick to the
text and come out openly and say now,
as be has repeatedly said, that be
would not accept the office another
term for the salary and pay bis own
depotvi
Does it not look upon the face of it
ss though Mr. Rice bad been drubbed
and beaten into a thing which he feels
is doing himself and family a wrong T
Why does Sheriff Eice charge $3 for
making s sheriff's deed, and put the
three dollars down in bis pocket, when
be had promised - to perform all the
duties of the sheriffs office for the
statutory salary? This duty is only
one of the duties of the sheriff as pre
scribed by the statutes, and yet Mr.
Rice, in open violation of his pledge,
performs that prescribed duty, takes
the money and keeps ltT
Do our people believe Mr. Rice is
running the sheriffs oBice for the sal
ary alonef
Mr. Rice has at different times stated
that he could not or would not run
the sheriff's office for the salary and
pay bis own deputy if re-elected T
. So far ss we can find out Mr. Rice
has never pledged himself to perform
the duties of tbe sheriffs office for the
salary, if again elected.
If be baa let him openly make tbe
statement through the press as has
Mr. Meserve.
We believe the facts in tbe ease to
be that it is th hope of Mr. Rice and
other populists that Jared West be
elected commissioner, in which event
Mr. Rice could then, through a popu
list majority on the county board, have
tbe salary of his deputy paid by the
county.
Will Mr. Rice have bis mouthpiece,
the News, deny that the editor of that
paper stated to Judson Weed that it
was a burning shame that Mr. R. H
flatten was compelled to work for the
paltry amount allowed him by Sheriff
Rice, and on that amount be com
pelled to educate, clothe, and feed a
family?
Will Mr. Rice, who is the sole exist
ence of the Hews, permit that paper to
openly advocate anarchy and treason T
Were it aot for Mr. Rice's support that
paper receives it would cease to exist
in less than two months.
If you see s fellow especially inter
ested in fusion in your neighborhood,
keep him in mind. Just sit down and
think why be is taking such an active
part in destroying the people's party.
8es if you can't figure out that the
same cbap "Will be directly benefited
by this destruction. Maybe its an office
in sight, or a promise of a deputyship.
Perhaps it means that some of bis fellow-wreckers
have promised him s pull
two years from now. Maybe be is s
sort of ambitious cuss and wants to be
with what he has been ld to believe
is the biggest crowd. Whenever you
see populists working teeth and toe
nails for the destruction of the party
you can just bet he has found an extra
inducement, says the Oregon Populist,
a middle-of-the-road paper.
Over 60 populist papers in Kansas
are reported to have dropped Mr. Bry
an's name for president. The phen
omenon of the Platte has run his
course, and will be forgotten by 1900.
If good times and prosperity have
any meaning In politics, what reason
have tbe people of Oregon to bang on
by the eyelids to free silver or to talk
fusion-for-offioe? In tbs Chicago mar
ket wheat was qnoted at about $1 the
last week in April, at $1.25 a few days
ago; today it Is $1.70 a bushel. What
that means to Oregon and Washington
a blind man can see. There ought
not to be a populist left alive in all the
Inland Empire. They should all have
died th natural death that comes
from innocuous desuetude, and while
ths mortal man survives to enjoy life
hugely on geueral principles, the pop
ulist that was in him should be rele
gated to realms of forgotten deprav
ity. There ia a project ahead for the
Paciflo Norihwest that has no room
in ita perspective for any remnant of
the dark ages that created populism.
Eastern Oregon oorrspondeut to tbe
Sunday Oregouian.
Tbi News says "to know Mr. H. R.
Kinoaid is to trust and admire him."
How is it that th News has beoome
so reconciled to Mr. Kincaid, when,
as it heretofore has claimed to be so
true to populist theory a straight-middle-of-the-road
advocate and Mr.
Kiacaid bad to be sued and re-sued
before he would place the populist
ticket on the official ballot? Mr. Kin
caid realised what it meant for him if
the ticket was filed and placed on the
ballot, and the News has acknowledged
ita sacrifice of principle that it so earn
estly advocated in the start off of the
campaign, and proved to the public
that it is in favor of anything that will
put a conglomeration of isms in power.
It becomes more apparent each day
that the whole combine is a slraight-fusion-for-offlce.
When it oomes to reducing expen
ses of offioes we wish our readers to
bear in mind that the office of district
attorney was never so cheaply main
tained ss it has been under tbe able
management of Mr. T. J. Cleeton.
Tbe criminal account in ths circuit
court for Columbia county the two
years Mr. Cleeton has been in that of
fice, or up to April 30, 1898, amounts
to $678.58. For the two years pre
ceding tbat time the criminal account
in the circuit court for this county
amounted to $2,946.52, or a saving to
the county of $2,267.94. These figures
are taken from the records.
Jared P. West will lake Phil F rakes'
place as county commissioner after
next June. He will uot offer an officer
his deputy's salary when said officer
has pledged himself to run the office
for the salary alone. News. How is
it that if Mr. Rice pledged himself to
run the sheriff's office for the salary
and nothing more, that he has repeat
edly asked assistance from the county.
and on different occasions received it?
Does it look as if he were honest or
sincere in his promises?
The people of tbe Uuited States are
today in better condition to supply the
money necessary for war than on any
former occasion. Tbe n.oney in cir
culation in ths United States today is
more than ever before. It has in
creased $246,333,445 in the twenty-four
months since the Chicago convention
took tbe ground that money of the
country could not increase materially
withou free coinage of silver, and stands
today at "high'-water mark."
Ms. Hrndersox doss not say he will
perform tbe duties ol county clerk for
the statutory salary, but says, if elect
ed, he will perforin those duties for tbe
constitutional salary. The constitu
tional salary may meaa $3,000 annual
ly, but the statutory salary reads and
means $1,800 per year. Mr. Watts
has pledged himself to perform tbe
duties of the office for tbe statutory
salary.
To look at tbe fusion ticket as it is
printed on would not know .there
were democratic csndidales for pre
cinct omces in this (Uaion) precinct.
Mr. A. N. Clark snd Mr. John Scott
are the regular nominees of the dem
ocrallo convention for the offices of
justice of tbe peace and constable, re
spectively, and Ibey wish the fact to
be remembered.
Where are tbe men in St. Helens
who lost their patience with President
McKinley for his conservatism and
were so anxious for war? Have they
asked to be taken to tbe front? Come
out, gentlemen, and tbe least you can
do is to hoist tbe American flag over
your door. Memeniber there is a dif
ference between patriotism and politi
cal jobbery.
How ia it that tbe News does not
keep its promise to print ths county
court proceedings free of charge? A
bill is sent to the county court regu
larly for printing the proceedings. The
bill is not allowed, however, because it
was tbe agreement when the News
was designated the official paper that
the proceedings should not be charged
for.
Contrary to reports, Mr. Malcolm
Moody, candidate for congress in the
second district on tbe republican
ticket, did heartily support Mr. Ellis
two years ago. Mr. Moody was a can
didate befere tbe convention for Mr.
Ellis' place, but was defeated, and like
a man he openly declared his inteo
tion of supporting Mr. Ellis, and be
did so earnestly and ardently.
Tub people of this county will come
far from voting for an element tbat re
