The state treasurer's ollUa was so foul
that even thu republicans c.ille-1 for a

If L. L.l'ortor thinks he can bo elected
joint senator by heaping abuse on his
opponent, a ministor.iu hia dirty she it,
he is mistaken.
Evkky candidate on the Union ticket
1 fills the Jefforsonian test of honesty and
capability. The pooplo should see .!iut
all of them are elected.
Job Simon is having his middle-of-the-road
Commoner distributed broadcast
throughout Clackamas county. A. J.
Kellogg, of Oregon City, is representing
tho sheet.
A votb for the union ticket Is one for
retrenchment and reform and against
tho gold standard, tho trusts ami every
thing inimical to tho best interests of
the people. Let this not bo forgotten,
i 1
Nation Chairman Murk A. Hamia re
fuses to pond any money or speakers to

Tim Enterprise "says that a man that
would reduce his salary to got into ollico
would steal B.vrup olf a blind nun's pan
cake," and then publishes tho statot
ment ot 11 candidate agreeing to do that
very thing.
Tub low ami unprincipled campaign
editor of the Enterprise wastes nearly
all his editorial page in calling the
Herald and Courier names. Why don't
he do something for the republican co in
bination ticket Instead. Ho does not
hurt our feelingi and we like to see him
pocketing Porter's money, as it is not
often he catches such a sucker
If the war tax measure, as passed by
the House, containing a $5(10,000,000
bond proposition, is not knocked out in
the senate, we fear ihe banking clique
will have gained the point they have
sought so long, to substitute bank rule
for government rule. '
Thb people of Oreaon might as well
elect M. Edwards.manager of the Amer
ican Book Company, as Prof. Ackerman
superintendent of public inistruction.
Mr. Ackeiman is Mr. Edward's proxy,
which will be revoked after election in
case of success. Portland Dispatch.
Makk Hanna has secured a -big coal
contract from MeKinley at a dollar a
ton more than o:her dealers offered to
furnish the' same quality of coal. A
million tons will net Mark a million' dol
lars over what is h fair price, for the
coal. St. Helens News.
Max Kamsby was-sent as delegate to
congressional convention and instructed
to support Hermann, but he voted for
Tongue and is now enjoying his promised
reward, a federal, position in Portland.
After election he can spend all his time
there as ihe people of Clackamas'connty
are not going to elect a third termer
with a government job to office.
One republican precinct chairman is
complaining because he has not received
some of republican campaign fund and
claims he cannot carry his precinct un
less he has money for beer, etc. This
man put up his own money last election
and was paid in promises and he' will
probably lo so again although he says
he will not. '
This republican candidal and their
steering committee might properly be
called a lawyers' brigade. The lawyers
on the district and county ticket are.T.
A. MoBride, T.J. Cleeton, L L.Porter,
Geo. 0. Brownell. Lawyers A; S. Dres
ser and G. B. Dimick are secretaries of
county cotniriittee and, are .attempting
to steer the combination ticket through.
The fellow that says that Geo. W. Mc
Bride is not trying to be re-elected U. S,
senator and is not in "cahoots" with
Mitchell must be pretty blind. L. L'
Porter, the Mitchell-Mc Bride candidate
for joint senator for Marion' and Clacka
counties, is a man well in hand. Sena
tor Gesner was turned down by the
AliteheH-Melirido manugers and this
young lawyer,, of Oregon City; put in
his place. Gesner had too much back
bone. Salem Journal.
.Do yoti want all the government pap.

If so, vote the g. o p. ticket.
"Til k proceeding of the present legis

The republican party is Joe Simon, and
Joo Simon Is the republican pirty.
The time will come that there will be
such a revolution anion; the people of
Oregon that the republican p.tity in Ore
gon will be bulled out of siht if this
one-man power continues." Ore hian,
Feburaiy 8lh, 1891. No tluOrj'
nian is supporting Mr. Simon. What
caused the change?
Wm. Haklow, the well-known pioneer
of CMatkanias county, was in the city
Tuesday lust. Mr. Harlow is an enthu
siastic supporter of the fusion ticket in
Oregon this year. He says U'Ken will
easily defeat lliownell for tho state sen
ate and piedictsiho election of the en
tire Clackamas county ticket. Mr. B ir
low is a silver republican and was ono
of tho first in tho statu to declare for
the restoration of the white mjt.it to its
time honoied position as a free and
equal companion of gold at the ratio of
10 to 1. Sitlein Independent
M. Poktkb is the candidate for joint

His plan is to induce tho middlo-roa.l-ers
to unite for him. lie claims they
are ull right inl'lackamas, but it is very
dillictilt to locate a single ono in Marion.
The program is to have tho right men in

looking on, just as well as the gambling
sharp who deals marked cards or plays
with loaded dice does that his scheme
must fail unless he can divert the atten
tion of his victims from the tricks ho
plays.
Mb. T.T. Geeb the candidate for gov
ernor spoke at Toledo in Lincoln county
on May 2. We understand that
they advertised that there w(as
to be a joint discussion between
Mr. Geer and Mr. King, the opposing
nominee. This was done to draw a
large crowd and' was successful. The
Oregonian stated that Mr. Geer ex
pressed his regrets that Mr. King was
never invited to attend such meeting
either directly or indirectly, He had
challenged Mr. Geer for joint discussion
which Mr. Geer refused. Mr. Geer in a
private letter to one of his republican
friends stated that he would not object
to dividing time with Mr.Kingat any of
his appointed places for speaking, but no
notice was ever extended to either the
Union Campaign Committee or Mr.
King to this -effect either by letter or
Otherwise. These are the tactics adopted
by the repubbtican party for the pur
pose of drawing a crowd and mislead
ing the people as to the true situation
of the facts. They were never known
to conduct a campaign in a fair and hon
orable manner and indications are they
never wi 11 be known to do so. :
Go it alone? Certainly. Let the demo
crats apd populists who favor a union of
all forces opposed to gold bugism have a
separate ticket.. Let the middle-of-the
roaders have another ticket , the single
tax advocates another, and those who
favor socialism still another. This Will
make it dead easy for the republicans to
carry the elections, retire the green
backs, provide for payment of govern
nent bonds in gold only, issue $800,000,
000 in new gold bonds, build up a great
bank trust with control of all paper
money in circulation and completely en
trench the gold gambler in power.
While the separate reform forced 'are
fighting among themselves the republi
can minority'will have no difficulty in
firmly riveting the chains of industrial
slavery upon the limbs of the common
people. What a glorious prospect for
humanity. ..What . magnificent patriot
ism. If the platform be all right on the
one or more great issues and yet does
not embrace every detail of reform which
you favor, then denounce your brother
reformer as a, traitor, spoilsman, an of
fice seeker and stay from the polls er
vote a republican ticket outright to give
vent to your injured feelings. This pro
gramme will make gold standard poli
ticians so happy, say the Vancouver
Register.

Third. They oppose the retirement of

Tihownkix has missed three of .hia

he afraid? The steering committee say
he is sick, and the election has some
thing to do with it.
As a matter of principle you cannot
refuse to vote the union reform ticket
in Clackamas county. If you refuse it
puis politics above principle. Vote 'er
