What would he fight Mexico for? The state of Oregon certainly needs more than one normal and as to whether it is located at Pendleton or Weston not many particularly care. Both these towns have started an ugly fight which if continued, will disgust so many voters that neither one will ever get a normal. Just after the Monitor had said that you don't hear much about the tariff in the present cam paign, Walter L. Tooze, Jr., goes over to Browns ville and says something about it. We attribute this to Mr. Tooze giving credence to a rumor that there was a man in the audience who wants a tariff on prunes. aiie was fox conmfbri arid convenience NEW PERftCTlON OIL COMjSTOVE No coal, wood or ashes to lug no waiting for the fire to burn up.

The Astoria pork bill failed to pass congress, it being side-tracked for investigation by the secre tary of the navy. While but a few of our people have any great "fear of a foreign foe", still a naval base is a nice thing to have, and if Mr. Secretary Daniels concludes to distribute any, we hope he will give Astoria one. If he becomes very liberal, we will also take one for Tillamook, Newport and Marshfield. There will be a joke on the November election ballot. The word "Progressive" will be printed after W. C.
