Bush Is working at Seappnute in Chapmana camp. both himself and Groner and Rowell. That in so fir as said letter refers to- E. B. Ton ue. it is absolutely false and untrue. He never at any time haJ any thing to do with rlther of said cases, and neither of us has at any time held any convemMon concerning said cases. Therefore E. B. Tongue, "Never told us or eitncr or us that he would not prosecute Groner and Rowell be cause they were any customers oi nis,- ana mat neither or us ever mado any such statement to Wenstrom, and such state ment by Wenstrom is false." Thos. II. Tongue has handled the.se bases from the beginning, and he has ALWAYS BEEN willing to prosecute the Groner and Rowell cast whenever, we 'presented him with certain evi dence, which we all agreed was material and necessary to obtain a conviction. This evidence was not secured until a few days ago and when so secured the case was immediately set down for trial. The attack therefore by Wen strom is a baso misrepresentation of the facts. , While our work extends over the entire State, the service that we have received from the Dis trict Attorney's office in Wash ington County, Vai been better ounty and we h.tve si cured more c i 1 vidian fr m lr.,l fii.,t th '! t.rn- fio iaiv o'l.i'r l)i t-iit Aiii..i The dance given by the Band PPtfXtltXTX ci Sllrrry Boys last Saturday night was a WUWVUVUU U VwLj w decided success. .

Mr. Morton is unknown to the majority of the people and can hard ly expect to figure in the race. Mr. Selling is widely known, is a Success ful business man, has been a consis tent Republican and a progressive and he has all his interests in Ore gon. He has been a State Senator j and rraJe good. He is capable and ' honest. Therefore it looks reason- j able that Mr. Selling should receive j tie Republican nomination for this: office and should he -do so, and be elected and would be a Senator who f would carefully guard the interests l of Oregon and at all times have the j full confidence of the people.
