time came. They knew and
boasted beforehand that George
Smith would be the nominee for
commissioner, Woodward the man
for judge, and Johnnie Allen for
precinct committeeman. It " was
also boasted on the street that Bel
knap would never be nominated for
fseaatofy and that, if Jie .should Jbsua
democrat not Belknap, would be elect
ed. All thisfs history. All this treach
ery shameful as it is, is fact. The fig
ures at the court house, don't 1 lie.
They show why Belknap, why Jol
ly, why Williams and the others
aredown and out, and how the
gang nearly fixed Hawley with aJ
democrat, from Washington county.
Hence, the manifestoes, calling
on the brethren to "stand in."
The bunch jobs 'em, gouges 'em,
chisels 'em, gives'ema swift kick,
and then sends 'em letters . full of
affection and love from Eliza and
the children, and with -slush about
"stand in" and be jobbed again,
As a surveyor, it has come to be
conceded that Thomas Jones is ex
actly the man for the position, . and
that is why he is on the ticket for
re-election without opposition. He
is a member of the county board of
road viewers, as well as largely
identified by law with the bridge
building and because of his com
petency in these regards, Mr.
Jones 'is by" all" "conceded to be "the
man for the place.

It is true that E. Woodward is a
gentle kindly , honorable old gen

that Roadmaster Smith, if both

party, Smith's friends are claim

-4 TTACKING CHAMBERLAIN.
It is general belief that A. J.
Johnson, republican candidate
for senator, makes a grae
mistake when he attacks Governor
Chamberlain,: There are some
things that even "Senator" John
reCn'earrnot wipe out. , It was Gov-
pracr 'Chamberlain that loaned the

ago promised that the school funds
should be loaned,, they have been
T6aned"and asTa fesuIET$45,666 ad

true that Governor Chamberlain ve
toed 29 bills and no republican
governor would have done it, be
cause to have done so would have
been to arouse the ire of the repub
lican legislature and through that
be ruined politically. It is true
that-every one of those 29 vetoes
saved dollars and dollars to the
tAxpayrSt-reducing.the.. state taxes
of Benton to about $12,000, the'
lowest they. have,-. been in fifteen
years. It is true that Governor
Chamberlain cleaned out the state
land office, got land thieves indict
ed, exposed frauds, and listed and
brought into the market lands to
the value of if 195,000. These and
scores of other acts by Governor
Chamberlain are known to all the
people of Benton county, and Mr.
T6TinsWeckraswTong when he
attacks the governor. Governor
Chamberlain lived; for something
like 20 years almost within a stone's
throw of Corvallis and it is the gov
ernor' s old neighbors that Mr.
Johnson is talking to, when he
makes his attacks.
The prettiest and best set of rec
ords in the state of Oregon is in the
county clerk's : office of Benton.

To add to their great value, is the
fact that they are accurate, for the
man that made these new records
Lis Victor Moses who is one of the
hnost accutatS'derks in the country.
These records ithat he makes are
the pride ef every Beaton county-
ite who has ever seen- them, and
the envy of people from other
counties. He makes these records
with his own . book type writer,
which he purchased at the price of
$175 and has placed at the disposal
of the county. It certainly seems
as th6ugh an official that does all
these things lor the people of the
county deserves to be given another
term. As a matter ot naked fact,
isn't it wrong to vote against him
when in the service he has given,
