ARK THET Ol'ILTYT
While Ibe populists of Clackamas county
re continually clamonng of rumors of
trade between leaders of the repub
lican and democratic parties, who are
accused of leading certain candidates
to the slaughter pen, in the light of
past experience it would perhaps be well
for them to first cast the beam out of their
own eyes, in order that they may see more
clearly to pick Ibe motes out of the eyes of
their brethren of opposite political belief.
A prominent democrat is authority fur the
statement that two years ago the populists,
as now, were very anxious to capture the
patronage of Ibe sheriff's office. According
to this statement some populist leaders
made a proposition to C. W. Ganong, the
democratic candidate for sheriff, that if he
would guarantee the Industrial Herald the
patronage of his office, they would rally
their forces and elect him. During the very
last week of the campaign Mr. Ganong pos
itively refused to accede to the proposition.
If the ringleaders of the populist party
would sell out their favorite candidates for
mess of pottage then, is it not a precedent
that they would do the same thing now if
the opportunity presented itself? Is there
not some favorite candidate whom they de
sire to see elected to the legislature or tome
more lucrative position, if the object could
be secured by the slaughter of innocents
whose names adorn their tickets? Is it pos
sible that tbey are raising all this hue and
cry about " trade and barter" In the ranks
of the opposition to detract attention! Irom
their own maneuverings? Do they honestly
mean reform, or are they striving for the
honors, emoluments and perquisites of offi
cial positions? In the words of Christ, "Let
him who is not guilty cast the first stone." i
Fot consistency the great Oregonian takes
the bun. Ol lale it has been industriously
advocating a boll from the regular republi
can congressional nominee of the second dis
trict for congress. It is seeking high and
low for a candidate who will be instrumental
in defeating Ellis for congress. Du.ing the
last session ol the legislature th Oregon ian
descanted long and bard on the ruinous
policy of not abiding by the caucus nomina
tion in the election of a United States sena
tor. Day by day it gave vnt to its spleen
against those who opposed its policy, and
has continued the tirade with more or less
vigor until th present lime. And yet after
months of bitter opposition to those who
refused to abide by th caucus nomination,
it does the very same act by bolting from
the choice of a regular republican district
convention. Nor is Ibis the first time thai
the Oregonian has pursued the policy of
knifing a regular republican nominee, a
practice that is so much deprecated when
the act is performed by other peopl not in
accord with th interests of the Oregonian.
Tbe Oregonian mad a fight on Col. Corne
lius, the republican nominee for governor,
and elected Pennoyer (or his first term.
Nov it is making a determined eflort to
down Mitchell for United Stales senator. If
t succeeds in. this effort It Is likely it will
hsve the effect of electing Pennoyer, a pop
ulist, to the U. S. senate. It is possible
that tbe Oregonian wants to see Pennoyer
elected lo tbe United Slates senate. It
wanted Pennoyer for governor, and it is
likely that it wants Pennoyer for United
.Slates Senator.

I the past history of the United Stales it
has become a prevalent saying, that ibe
campaigning and consequent detraction
from every day mature during a presiden

one consoling thought,, however, at thi

any depressing effect on the commercial In
terests of the country.
STArrouD, April 20. To th Kimtor: In
tbe last issue of the EfiTxaeaisa you do me
a great injustice by publishing a comniuni
ration from some unreliable scoundrel,
whose words would not be taken in any
place, except by a few of i.iy enemies.
I was apointed by the counly court last
year as supervisor of rosd district No. 31, ol
Clackamas county. I was not looking or
bunting for the olllc. I am an American,
and believe in the office hunting the man.
But alter accepting the office I went lo work
lo perform my duty irrespective of friend or
foe. In the discharge of duty I know no
Iriend and fear no foe.
Last year I worked out, according to my
report and my books, (which are all ou
record and open for Inspection by any hou
est man,) $.181 In cash, and about in road
poll tax, and issued ninety-one road certifi
rates to different parties. That is ss satis
factory as your paier proofs to the truth of
tbe " two pels." After I had completed the
first month's work, Mr. Frank Ford, of Os
wego, an old road supervisor and a man
whose word will be laken any place, said I
had done more work in the right direction
toward making a good road than had been
done for a nuaiber of years previous. And
be was not alone: over thirty others, all
good men, asserted the same thing, some of
them going so far as to say they would pe
tition the court to reappoint me. But I told
them not lo as I was not looking for favors
from any one. Our chief engineer pro
nounced my work No. 1, and said I ad
done my work well with the means I had
to do it with. The court (or good services
performed on the road reappointed me.
The books show that I issued seventeen
different road receipts for the month of
March, and up lo the coiiiinur.iculiuii in
your paper twenty-three more names ap
peared on my books. There are not three
road districts in the county that have done
in the same period any more work tban I
have done ou the road, nor at a cheaper rale
than I have done,
Complaint is made in behalf of the " poor
men." I feel sorry for them, but 1 have no
orders from the court to use tbe road fund
for a pauper fund. Borne of these poor men
are in fact so poor they wont putln a day's
work at horn nor on the highway. They
are Ibe growlers. When I meet a skunk on
on tbe road I will get blm out of the way;
but If lie stays in his bole I do not offend
him to await tbe stench'.

exist today,
In N80 practically all the people In the
territory proposed to be annexed lo Multno
mah were iu faver of the move, and they
signed long and strong petitions for such
action and sent Ihem to me. Tbe section
wanting annexation had all Its commercial
interests in Multnomah. Portland was th
sole market lo which we bad a good wagon
roid. There wis no road between Oswego
and Oregon City without going nine miles
out of Hie my over the hills lo the west.

Iu this situation Oswego waa practically
cut off from communication and sympathy

its Clackamas connections only by Ibe tax

ties to Clackamas are a great deal stronger Main and Fourth StH
than they then were. So the arguments!
that then applied to the separation from
Clackamas county are no longer good, and
the people are not now in favor of tbe ac
tion they worked for then. I am one of the
people and am glad to recognize the changed
conditions that bind us to Clackamas; and
I am certainly not now In favor of the dis

A leaning American ornithologist says
that some of our most desirable birds
are threatened with extermination. The
common quail and ruffled grouse are
becoming very scarce. Wrens and blue
birds are driven from their old haunts by
sparrows. Terns are sla'ightered by thous-
nds fur the millinery business, and Florida
is similarly despoiled of its herons, Ibis, pel
icans and smaller birds. The wild pigeon
has disappeared. Fashion at present Is the
greatest enemy ol bird life, hut collectors of
eggs are also responsible for great destruc
tion. Protection ofliirds muni come through
Ibe education of the H-nple, especially the
rising generation, and by protective legisla
tion sustained by game wardens. Tims far
no state legislsture has given the subject
the attention it deserves, and must soon de
