A TKJIPKisT IN A TBA POT.
One of the most forcible rqrecnlailoi;s
ot the ''tempest In the tea pot" racket I
found In the cock-snd-bul! story told by
the OtfgoniuH about the Portland Lumbei
Ing And Manufacturing Company In
which governor Pennoyer ha an Interest,
making a bid to supply the Board of
Asylum commissioners with lumber to en
large I he asylum. The governor I a
member of the board and when the bid
were opened It was found that lbe bid
made by the Portland company was the
lowest bid. The governor, bring unsophl.
Heated enough to think that the object lit
advertising for bids was to get the lowest
bidder, he, Mcllrldo snd Webb a
greed at once that the Portland company
should have the contract. But before the
next meeting of the Hoard the lumber
compan; at Salem whose bid was next
lowest, (and which company by the way
are republicans,) had found out by some
mean (hat there was an old musty statute
'hat prohibited any company In which any
member of the board had an Interest from
bidding on contracts let by the board.
Probably not one man In ten thousand
knew that such wa the law, snd the gov
ernor, It seems, did not know there was
fitch law.but just aisoon a hi attention
wss called to It he at once declared that
the order giving the Portland company
the contract must be rescinded. Up to this
lime Mcilrlde, Secretary of Stile, hsdbccn
entirely Ignorant of such a law, and he
greed also, well W ebb, that the con
tract must be resclndcJ, and It wa done.
The OrrgaHuim attempts.but in a glaring
y feeble way, to make political cap'tal out
of this little affair. Rut the boncl tax 1
payir I not a gudgeon to be caught In
that way. Suppose the contract Mad rW

V V Thompson, while on a visit lo Europt

higher protected country, pay only about
half the wage of Er gland. Italy, with
higher protective policy than Germany,
pay still les wage than Germany. The
American Consul' report show one re
markable fact, and that Is, the higher pro

have been Ignorant of thete fact; but It I

APPEAL TO THE CITIZENS OF OREGON IR-
RESPECT1VB OV PARTY A t'KILI AT10NS.
OH ICR Or THE DEMOCRATIC STATE CENTRAL
COMMITTEE, PORTLAND, OREGON, MAY 14,
IS90.
Reliable persons inform us that the manag
ers of the Republican party have sent money
into most every county of tint State, lor the
purpose of buying up tuch purchasable votes
as may be had to vote the Republican State
ticket. Indeed, so bold are the managers that
they have openly boasted on the streets of
Portland, that they will spend one hundred
thousand Dollars to carry lhe election, and we
are informed that one corporation, the Electric
light company, has subscribed ten thousand
dollars to tuch a fund. We cannot believe
that the large and respectable part of the
Republican party in Oregon can, or will, sanc
tion such practices,and we appeal to them to
put a stop lo lhe same, and a stamp of disap
proval upon a practice which if carried out, must
brine the blush of shnme npon the cheek of
every true citizen of this fair state. . If the
highest offices of the state are to be purchased
from those who are so vile as to sell their votes,
then better let ut put up the offices at public
auction and knock them down to the highest
bidder. This is no' campaign document, but
is an honest anneal to all of the citizens of
Oregon, irrespective of party, warranted by
the danger which is known to exist and if not
defeated, will make citizenship quite worm
iest. B. Goldsmith.
Chairman Dem. Slate Cen. Com
1 1
Hon T I Lucv. our former efficient and
worthy County Judge, now living in the Will
amette Valley, who is in the city, says scores
of Republican fanners in that locality will vote
for Pennover for Governor. If the same isn't
true in Umatilla county it ought to be. How
a farmer can vote for Thompson a againjt
Pennoyer.merely on account of politics, -'beats
our time.". B 0,
Judge Bennett, of The Dalles, who is in the
city attending court, says that Pennoyer will
surely carry Wasco and Sherman counties
(originally Wasco, hich gave about 425 Re
publican majority two yean ago. He also says
that one Republican farmer told bim he knew
of fifty others in his portion of the county, of
the same politics ami occupation, who would
vote for Pennoyer. E 0.
"Dollar Mark" Thompson ha gone from
our gaze and the impression left behind him is
anything but pleasant fur republicans to con
template. Better had he never stepped a foot
into Baker City to insure him votes la June,
His very presence and his cold hand shak
sent an iceberg chill down the tphal column
of every whole souled and honest man who
met bim, His very countenance depicts
Shylock, in whose "hands no quarter could be
