THE COMING COSVESTIOM.
As every republican in this county is
aware, we are upon the threshold of a
county convention, when a list of men
will be chosen to represent the party
before the voters. Candidates are either
openly announced or arc trying their
chances, and plans are made lor the
campaign by both parties. Higher
matters than the selection of a county
ticket are engrossing tbe attention of
many of our political workers. These
matters should not be permitted to carry
antagonism into the selection of tbe
county ticket. Republicans of this coun
ty havealwayn fought harder for ouuide
parties thau they have for their neigh
bors and true friends, and this spirit
has arisen to such a degree that danger
threatens. Which ever way thia ten
dency leads, and may have power to
nominate every man on the county
ticket, it will be wisdom not to act the
part of tyrant. The minority must be
recognized. Compromises must be
effected. There should be no high hand
playing, but the best interests of the
party must be served. In the excite
went of a convention things are some
times done that would be considered
foolish in cooler moments, but which
might cost the loss of a man on the
ticket. But tickets are often practically
made before the convention is called to
order, and at such a time wisdom may
be nsed. We desire to support tbe
ticket, as we have always done, ardent
ly and earnestly, and there is a pleasure
in advocating the cause of strong, houest
men, who have been selected because of
their fitness to represent tbe party.
Competition is just and there should be
a keen rivalry among the delegates of
the numerous different precincts in
favor of men of t heir choice, and to se
cure a fair representation on tbe county
ticket, but not only the beat interests
of the party, but the best interests of
tbe county should be kept in the tore
ground. Let's lay aside thia strife over
outsiders and outside interests and guard
well and with strict fidelity the matters
which affect home interests first.
THREE NEW STATES.
There is a chance that three states
will be added to the roll of the forty-live
before tbe end of the present conjrresa.
The House committee on territories has,
by a unanimous vote, directed a favor
able report to be mat on tbe bills for
the admission of Oklahoma, New Mexico,
and Arizona to statehood. The Okla
homa bill baa already been reported and
others will be reported in a few days.
Tbe action of the committee shows that
the bills are likely to pass the House
without serious opposition.
A tight will probably take place
against some of there bills in tbe Senate,
but the chances are that all of them will
pass. The advocates of all three meas
ures have joined forces, so that they will
Have whatever strength can come from
onion. There is no valid reason for
opposing New Mexico's appeal for state
hood, and of course Oklahoma won tbe
right to admission several years ago,
although she is tbe youngest of the
three. New Mexico bad a population of
about 194,000 in 1901, which is about the
number required for a representative
in congress from the states. She has
been a territory for over half a century.
Oklahoma had 398,000 inhabitants in
1900, or enough to entitle her to two
votes in the House of Representatives,
though she has been a territory for only
a dozen years.
Arizona is the smallest of all tbe terri
tories, having only 122,000 population at
the time the census was taken two years
ago. As ber growth in the decade, how
ever, was 106 per cent, the chances are
that she has in the neighborhood of 130,
000 people now. The outlook for all
these territories is bright. This is par
ticnlarly true of Oklahoma. As tbe sil
ver issue has beeu shelved for good there
will be but little incentive for opposition
to the admission of these territories.
Partisan reasons may sway some votes,
and this may delay the admission of
some of tbe three. Oklahoma, even

territories, yet this win naruiy De sui
ficient to give tbein the election. Leav
ing partisanship aside altogether, there
is no reason to oppose the admission of
any of these territories.
Tomorrow, convention day, promises
to be a lively day. There are many
candidates for each of the offices for
which nominations will be made, and
siime must be prepared to meet defeat.
It is impost-ible at this true to forecast
with any degree ot accuracy wno is in

rivalry that exieta is indicative of a
unanimous support of the ticket, when
nominated. There are good men and
true aspiring, aud it will be almost im
possible for the convention to err in its
judgment in making selections.

is Quick to censure, quick to praise, but
quickest to forget. 1'olticans think that
by swaying with the breath of the
moment they can perpetuate themselves
in the affection of the multitude, but the
true leader is the man that does his own
thinkins and stands by his own con
victions. He may lose favor for awhile
but in the long run he wins and be keep
the respect ol all men.
Okkoox has a good example to follow
in the state ol New York, which tsap-
propriat ing a million dollars a year to
bulla good roads, uther states in tne
nnion are spending hundreds of thou
sands of dollars annually to better the
condition of their highways. It is as
serted that the Massachusetts highway
commission, which is empowered to
spend 50,000 yearly in building and im
proving roads in t hat state, has saved
the rural population of Massachusetts
from 33 per cent to 60 per cent in the
annual outlay for horses and vehicles;
and the increase there in the value of
real estate as a result of tbe couimia
siou'd efforts is said to be enormous.
Ths following editorial appeared in
last Saturday's Oregonian: "Columbia
county was one ol tbe counties of the
slate heavily stricken by "hard times,"
due largely to official mismanagement
and defalcation. It is gratifying to
learn that prosperity has returned to it
in full measure. This is fully demon
strated by tbe fact that the county is
square on the bonks of the state treas
urer, that all warrants have been called
in, and that by April 1 it will have a
caoh surplus ol flU.OUU in the treasury.
Compared with the financial manage
ment of some other counties (naming
no names), this is a fine showing of bus
iness and officialism working in tbe
public interest."
Timbre land of the United States is go
ing at the rate ol 40 miles square an

be exhausted, and wide awake timber

their attention to the Pacific uortbweal
forests.

Very frequently of late subscribers to
this paper nave made personal requests
that a certain item of news be suppress
ed, and tbe paper has in a few instances
complied with the requests and either
cut ont entirely or so mutilated state
ments of public interest as to strip them
of both literary and commercial valoe.
Occasionally a subscriber or advertiser
gets mad and quits because the paper
has ret used to comply wttn a seinsbly
unreasonable request. The news is tbe
paper's capital, its stock in trade. Upon
its ability to faithfully report the news
hinges its success or failure, the peo
ple buy the paper for the news it con
tains and the advertiser buys tbe space
solely for tbe purpose of conveying bis
statements to the subscribers. It some
times happens that tbe very man who,
for personal reasons, bss requested the
suppression of a news item, will prove
the loudest bowler when some private
matter of bis neighbor's is not mention-
couimerre. Tbe paper should be
reasonable in all things, but it must
print the news. If the public and pri

publication concerning him need be
