II. M. Lin&s on the Democratic
ticket, and Isaac Rutler, on the Re
publican ticket, are lacforo the
voters of the Fourth district for
Justice of the peace for the next
two years. Choose the one laest
suited for the position.
Tit Kit E is no more important
office in the gift of the county than
that of county judge, and no better
qualified man for the place than
Hon. S. T. Iiui ch, of Dixie. He is an
old pioneer, and hm been valued
always as an upright .citizen for his
unswerving integrity. No man is
more highly respected than S. T.
Rurch.
Li. nx county is out if debt and
has if US, 000 in the treasury. Linn
county has been Democrat ie for
years. Marion county is t? 1 1,000
in debt. Marion county has been
IJepubliean for years. The tax
levy in Linn is only about half
that, of Marion. Can't the voter
read between the lines?
We believe that a writ of mini
iVimus or Hotnething else ought
to be served on the Mn-itn Cmnhj
Jfemorrat f.r inflicting such a
travesty upon the good looks' of
Hon. W. 11. Rilyeu as it did hist
Monday. The picture is simply
profane. Mr. Rilycu is a fine
looking gentleman, and deserves
no such caricature.
Si'EAKiNO of the recent Demo
cratic convention at McMinnville,
the Tdrphoitc Jlyklrr says: "Judge
Shaw wits introduced and in a few
words had the attention of his
hearers. In personal appearance
Mr. Khaw resembles Judge Roise.
He is in the prime of life, and the
rosy hue of health is found upon
his intelligent face. He is a man
of few and plain words, but great
thoughtj.wiUi the ability to express
them in terse terms not beyond
the comprehension of the average
man. A largo number of the prom
inent lawyers of the state have
learned what they know in Judge
fJhaw's oflice. Among them is his
opponent, who, boylike, has the
egotism to think he knows more
than his teacher."
nw jittio eioetiitit w mm up

I Hniioenil ie t Icket depends alone up
on the Democrats themselves. We
have a ticket in the Held that com
mauds tttclrespcct of all, lemocnit
it ud Republicans alike, and the
only lYuuisito faar dticcm Is for
leiuoerats to do their duty, lay
giving their standard Waivm
hearty support, and standing up
manfully for them jnnd their prin
ciples. Let there Ih no kicking,
no refusal ol support on account
of supposed personal slights, but
let one 'and all bo truetothe
faith, true to our nominees, ami u
victory will be smiuM lhat. we
may lao proud of.
Our candidates are men of nhlli
ty, possessing all the iualitlentions
iHHHwsary for the performance of
the duties that may lata required of
them.
We will say nothing disparag
ingly of the Republican nominees,
but we can truthfully say that (he
names composing the Democrat ie
ticket are Una names of men lae
yoa.d the touch of calumny, and
whose record will hear the cltasivst
scrutiny, without, the least taint of
reproach or political dishonesty
lHiiag attnchiHl to them.
No local quest ious ana agitating
the luUulsof the peiaple this year,
(at least none appar on the sur
face;) then, let us go determinedly
to work, make battle for our own
candidates and principles, and
"Old 1'olk" will bo where she
should ever have boon, In the van
of Democracy. Inuring aloft its
standard triumphantly.
Thk olhw ot county assessor is a
verylthaukless one. Whenever he
starts tan his rounds the people net
suddenly very imku We need a
man tor tli.it position that w iltexer
else a ihhiI judgment ol his own,
and one which will give a just rela
tive value of all property. The
people say that J. W, McDowell is
the risrht man for that idace. So
all should vole for MclKiwell.
Tit k Deiutacrats tor some reason
have no iiouiimv on their ticket for
coroner. However, our friend Dr.
Ketchuiu will lae willing no doubt
to otlteialc nt the funeral ol our

same thiiiff several tunes in our
past history, and acted as under

CU'TUX ItKI.I, who Speaks III
Ktigene on the aftenuaaui of the
Rlth, made the following remark
at Newport, referring to Yaipiina
bay improvements: if protection
is a good thing, and you do not
desire to trade with other nations
of the world, or win the commerce
of the seas, why mat chase up the
harbor and depend tisaii the art ill
cial and contracted "home market"
for the fruits of the Ulnar of the
farmers of the Willamette valley
that seeks mi outlet from your
magnificent harbors! If otherwise,
break the shackles that now en
slave commerce, and Die Hag ot
every nation will gladden your
vision and build up commerce and
prosperity to bless ami enrich ymi.
A. . RHNSKTT, 01 Wasco, tor
supreme judge, is an able jurist,
and not a stain 011 his character;
(ieorge K. Chamberlain, of Linn,
for attorney general, is the first
iucunilaent of said office, and he
has faithfully discharged the duties
of the same and should be elected
by all means: J. J. Mhaw, of
Marion, forjudge of the Third ju
dieial district, is just the man to
succeed Judge Roise; he is a man of
experience, ripe and clean; W. R.
Rilycu, of Albany, for district
at torney, is popular, able, and just
the man we very much need al
this time;' and W. C Cooley, of
Lane, for member of state board
ol equalization, is well versed in
the general value of Oregon real
"slate, mill would do good service
10 the taxpayers of Oregon. All
these men deserve your voles, and
every man should go to the polls
and east a vote for them.
Wiiii.k tlio offices of sheriff,
clerk, and treasurer, are largely
clerical in their nature, yet the
office of sheriff is also an executive
one. The sheriff should be a man
quick to detect ami apprehend the
wrong-doer, and to execute the law,
and to use such judgment as will
entail the least possible expeifse to
the taxpayer, yet to leave nothing
undone in the strict performance of
hisduties. Is not W. II. Kuykeii
dull just such a man! His steady
grow th in popularity in this county
goes strongly to prove this propo
sition. A good comfortable major
ity for Rilly Kuykendall is already
assured. The clerical qualifica
tions of Hugh Raid win for county
clerk arc admitted by all, and his
close and economic application In
other pursuits in life plainly indi
cate that ho should be the next
clerk of 1'olk county. A. Caiu is
the honest, every-day man for
county treasurer. Ho will be
elected by a handsome majority,
Ho is fully qualified for the posi
tion. Now comes the question of
school superintendent. This ollice
relates to the educat ional interests,
of the county, and iu many rospids
Is I he greatest one entitled to eon
slderation, yet the one least spoken
of j and I he pout est paid laftloor la
theeouuty, is the scluaol miportti
tetident, as it relates to the amount
of work done. I'rofcsaor Churhw
Nimonton Is not only well qualified
to do this work thoroughly, but is
the proper man Intake up the work
whoro Ms worthy prtMlotvsstar will
leave it, and continue to raise- the
standard of schmal work In Rolk
county, that will make a reputa
tion for the elti.oii and school
people of which wo all may be
proud. IM the voters mark well
the fact that -Mr. Himonton will do
faithfully and well this noble work,
and nil should mat only help
him at the polls on elect Ion day,
but during his entire Itietiuitaency
of office. The taxpayers of the
county should, and generally do,
lockout for thelrowu Interests with
regard to the llnanclal manage
meut of county nlliiirs. Mr. Henry
Uyeily for county commissioner,
with his two colleagues, Messrs.
Simpson and Rurch, would make a
county court in which tho people
w ouhl have the greatest conHdciice,
Henry Ryeily has 11 knowledge of
county alluirs which would be of
great Interest to every titan or
woman that pays one dollar's lax.
Vote for Ryorly.
"Xtaiuiiav who knows anything
could suppose that Kngllsh work
ingiut'it th-siro to return to the pro
tective system," says tho (rioM,
Rut the laughable uud ridiculous
thing about it is, lhat ten or twelve
linos further on Mr. Scott falls into
his own trap by saying: "There
must free trade, (in Kiiglaud,
consequently, ami low triiirn,"
This is logic for you! Analysed,
it simply means that free trade
makes tow wages, ami lhat Ruglish
workitagnum are in favor of free
tiwle. What nonsense! In Amer
ica, says the Ocr.niiidti, working
men want luotiflion Immmusc it
makes high nages; in Kiiglaud
workiogiiien aaant free trade In
cause it makes low wages! lint
this is just like all the rest of tin
protect ion arguments, ami if tin
(hrtmni will only continue (o
talk high tariff it aaill make a great
many free trade votes, ilrolhcr
Scott may know much. t,we have
many misgivings on that score
however.) but he mixes thing'
sadly.
THK Illinois Democratic coiiveii
tioit has taken its place in the pro
cession. Ill 1111 exceedingly abb
platform it declare (hat the t.irifl
Is a tax and a burden, and w hen
"levied upon the suggest nan of
private greed to promote monopoly
and extortion, to build up the for
tunes of a few laeiielic lai'ies and
favored classes at the expense nl
the general welfare, it is le.tvenc
with injustice and oppression, 11
burden intolerable to freedom, am
inconsistent to every principle of
sound government." The plat
form indorses President Cleveland,
and without reservation fully and
completely improves bis mcs
sago of I.H.S. The delegates to
national convention were instructed
to vote its a unit in accordance ill)
the deci.Mon of a majority of tin
delegation; and as about two-third:
of the delegation are Cleveland
men, this L'ivcs the vole of Illinois
to the only Democrat who can In
elected. The Cleveland tidal wave
rises as it rolls on,
It is said a high tariff makes
high wages. This is the way
it diM-s it: a little more than
a year ago there was a high tarifl
tan sugar, and In Independence w
got ten pounds of the granulated
article for one dollar. Raw sugar
was put 011 Hie free list, and the
moment- the law went into effect,
the price dropped from one third to
one hall. .Now we get. iiitecn
pounds lor one dollar. Most fami
lies w ill use twenty pounds per
month, which under the old tariff
would cos now (lie same t wenty
pounds will cost only "fl..'l.'ti,
So here we have as the direct re
sult taf free sugar a net increase of
(10; cents per tuoiilh in t lit) t wages
of every head of a family. .Now if
free trade in sugar has increased
wages, how can anyone claim a
tariff inakesl wages higher! Will
the sadly mixed, (hrijonutn please
explain!
Hon. H. T. Ji-:rn;i,Y!s, of Cor
vallis, is a candidal) 011 the Demo
cratic ticket for representative of
Rciiton county. Tommy is a Rolk
county boy, and has the best of
antecedents. The voters of Kenton
county will do themselves an injus
tice if t hey do not elect Mr. Jcll'reys.
Wo have known him for many
years, and have known him inti
mately, and wo say willioul, the
slightest hesitat ion, that ho is hon
est as tlio tlay is long, eminently
caiable, thoroughly educated, ac
tive, and persistently energetic, ami
if ho were running in his native
county we would give him a rous
ing majority.
That was a curious lino of rea
soning which caused Editor Hcolt
to gravely announce his conclusion
that American woikingmen want
protection because it, makes high
wages, and English workingnicn
want JVeo trade because it makes
low wages. This is the first tune
wo ever litMirtl aiiyono seriously
say that a Jworkliigmau of any
tint ton wits lit favor of low wages.
