County Official
Paper
I'olitical conditions are bo bad
ly complicated in tho United
States that the voter in at a Iobs
to know just "where he in at."
With three parties in the field in
most of the states, two of them
claiming1 to represent the great
IJcpublican principles, and with
county and state tickets nominal
cl by the Ilepublicans before th
gn-at Hplit occurred, many peopl
art' asking that state and county
nominees of the Ilepublican party
announce whether they belong to
the regular Republican party,-or
arc followers of tho Hull Moose
It is no more than fair that they
do so. If they "are entitled to the
8iiiort of a party by the use of
u party name and with all the
prestige that gives to one, they
hhnuld come out in the open anc
iiLilaro themselves. Ihey are
either Republicans or they are
J!ull Mixwers. If they are fol
oers of the great Hull Moow
Lemler they have no business on
a IJcpublican ticket. If they arc
Republicans and expt-ct Republi
can Hiipport they should say so.
ihe jieoplc are demanding this
from all Republican nominees
from the oUice of Coroner to
1'mted States Senator. The col
umn of the Mist ureoiwn for any
announcement fr-mi any of the
candidate.

Thero remains one great ob
stjicle in tho way of the building
i.f factories in Ht. Helens which
depend ujton the railroads f.w
transporting their goods. We
have no terminal rates. If a
tlmir mill, for instance, should
decide to locate here it would be
imK)Stible for them to do so and
successfully compete with Port
land mills for they would have
the difference in freight ii pay
from Portland to St. Helens.
Tliia means a big thing to any
such an industry and we cannot
hoe to secure any such until we
are able to say to them that the
rates are the sams here as at Port
land. Terminal rates arc in effect
at Rurlington, half way between
St. Helens and I'ortland and
there is no just reason why we
can not get them here. Of
course the Hill interests are the
promoters and owners of the
I'.urlington townsite and they
have no interest here, other than
to get the business, but if the
matter was taken up by the
right parties and in the proper
way it could very likely be
brought about. In any event it
is up to St. Helens to make a
move.
