The candidates will open the canvass atLower Alsea on May 19, instead of Tidewater, as announced in last week's Gazette. The republicans do not propose to enteTtain any trading proposi tions this year. " They intend to vote the republican ticket straight. The people of Corvallis will have a big celebration on the Fourth of July this year. Over 3100 was raised the first day by the ways and means committee towards the celebration fund. Vote for Hon. J. 0. Fullerton for circuit judge. He is a man with large experience in public af fairs, an able lawyer and will make , a fair ana impartial judge, ana ' that is the kind of a man the peo- jpie wane ior mac position. It was Senator Gray, of Califor nia, who introduced the sweeping bill against Chinese immigration .and not Senator Dolph. Mr. Dolph favors the restriction of -Chinese to this country but is not willing to violate existing treaties. Some of the democrats of Ben ton county want the earth and all there is in it, but they know they can1t get it, hence they will give .all their interests in it and sacri fice every other candidate on their ticket for the offices of sheriff, re corder and treasurer. A max, feeling jubilant, said a lew days since, "A man might just as well have a good time so long as the democrats put up the whiskey. This is Osborn whiskey in this jug." Do our intelligent people want such a man to collect their taxes and look out for the criminals within their borders? Newport Times. Just because the office of com missioner is not a political one is no reason that republicans should not vote for Joseph Edwards, of Monroe. He has all the qualifi cations for the office and should receive the full suppovt of his par ty. This seems to be the only argument his opponents can lring against him. The Newport Times says: The defeat of Gsburn for ' marshal in CJorvalliSjWhen his oppouent stood isoci&Uy where he did, and also certain things concerning his failure in business in his own rtown, will not lend , him any strength in his political contest, mow at .hand.

Let each Toter look facts square in the face And not be influenced by a cigar or a drink. ' ' - "cA'CLBose for county VEATCJI GETS HIS NAME ON THE TICKET. Our distinguished fellow-citizen, the Hon. Robert M. Veatch, did noc get in at the iront entrance on the ground floor under the new Australian ballot law, having failed to file his certificate as a candidate for congress with the secretary of state. This knocked him out on the first round, and he had to go to Salem last Monday and climb up the back stairs into the attic with a petition of 250 signers. This was, like the nomi nation of Veatch by the demo cratic convention, a very foolish performance. The nomination was a burlesque at the start, and reached the point of a farce when the candidate had to go to Salem with a lawyer and 250 signers be fore he con Id get his name on the tickets, and will end in nothing on the 6th day of June. The Austra lian ballot law,like Australian wool and the products and inventions of pauper foreigners generally, is a great improvement oii the American ballot system, in the eyes of democratic reformers, in republican states. In democratic states they have no use for it. but in republican states it is supposed to reverse Darwin's theory of the survival of the fittest and give the democrats a chance. No doubt when this law was enacted last 3rear the democrats expected to draw some comfort from it, but we do not believe they expected at that time it would perform miracles and fill a 40-gallon barrel with a pint ot sour grape .luice, or expand to a still greater degree and fill the seat of Binger Her mann in congress with Robert M. Veatch. They did not expect the Australian law would ever be strong enough to hoist a democrat into congress over Hermann, by the seat of his Australian wool breeches, and although the conven . tion has tried to cet more out of the law than its most sanguine ad vocates hoped for, by nominating a light candidate, the coarse wool will tear out and dump him where he will do the state the most good in the Coast Fork bottom. But it brings to mind the old saying "give some people an inch and they will take a yard" and is a sad commentary on human credulity and cheek to see in a year after that law was passed what a great change has come over the spirit of the democratic d?am. The party has lost what little sense it had and is now com pletely rattled and does not know which end is up. A whole con vention of 265 men sat down on Governor Pennoyer and fixed him plenty, and capped the climax by nominating Veatch for congress. And now 250 democrats have signed a petition asking to have his name filed. The democrats have been petitioning along with the republicans for more appro priations all the time, praising Mitchell and Dolph and Hermann for the large appropriations they have secured for Oregon and demanding more, and now they go back on everything they have done and said and ask the people to vote for a man who is opposed to all such appropriations and to vote against the man - who has been carrying out their instruc tions and securing the appropria tions they demanded! This is in consistent, short-sighted, absurd and ungrateful. It is treason to the best interests of themselves, their state and the whole people. We do not believe the people, nor anything like all the democrats, will sanction by their votes such an absurd and ruinous proposition. State Journal. One thing is proving a thorn in the flesh ot the democrats they can find nothing in the past history of Wm. A. Jolly to dig up for campaign powder. One of the best nominees on the present splendid ticket is this same Wm. A. Jolly. A highly moral man, whose word is good as coin among his neighbors, and who will not stoop to buy his votes with money. A man successful in handling his private affairs, ' and consequently capable to satisfactorily handle the affairs of the people. Vote tor him and in so doing give to Ben ton county 'the most upright and moral sheriff she has ever had, and one in whose hands the people of the entire county can leave his portion of their businessy and feel confident it is in good and careful hands. Newport Times. WiLLARDLiNviiXE.the republican candidate for recorder, is gaining friends every day and from pres ent indications he will be elected by a handsome majority, as he should be. His large experience in similar work to that required of the county recorder, has well fitted him for the office. ' He is a genial, accommodating gentleman and everyone who has had business dealings with him speaks in the highest praise of him. He is a hard working man and deserves the support of the people. Vote for Wm. Jolly, the honest farmer, for sheriff. A REFUTATION OF THE CHARGES AGAINST HON. F. A. MOORE. Several of the democratic parti san papers of the state have pub lished charges against the integ rity of Hon. Frank A. Moore, re publican nominee for supreme judge, which charges were that he had defrauded the heirs of an es tate. A complete refutation of these charges is made by a well known and reliable law firm of Portland, who were attorneys in the case, and, being democrats, precludes any possibility of their statement being made for'political purposes. Here is what they say: Portland. Oe., May 5th. Our attention has been called to cer tain articles published in several of the newspapers of the state, re flecting on the character and in tegrity of Hon. F. A. Moore, pres ent republican candidate for su preme judge of the state. Having been attorneys in the case mentioned in the articles above cited, and being entirely familiar with the facts of the case, we deem it simple justice to say that the decision of the courts thou roughly vindicate Judge Moore and that, in our judgment, there is nothing in the whole transaction which reflects, in any degree, on the integrity of Judge Moore, either as a man or an attorney. The whole question of Judge Moore's good faith was fully in vestigated and tried, and the plaintiffs failed to establish, by one particle of evidence, any charge that they had made against him. Very respectfully, Killin, Starr & Thomas. It is with regret that we are compelled to announce that our popular candidate for representa tive, J. O. Stearns, of Waldport, will not be able to take part in the political canvass, which begins on the 19th inst., on account of serious illness in his fahiily. Mr. Stearns would make many frieftids in the canvass, especially in the northeastern and southeastern por tions of the county,where he is not so well known as he is west of the mountains. Nevertheless he is an honest, upright man and will rep resent the wants of the people for the best interests of all, and as the Alsea country has never been rep resented in the legislature he should be elected. Four more weeks for the politi cal pot to boil, and then we. shall see who will hold down the offices for a couple of years. We think the people will decide well, and elect the whole republican ticket. There can be no objection raised to this ticket, as the candidates are all representative men and capable' of filling the ofiices in an accepta ble manner. The farmers, espe cially, by considering their own interests, will not fail to send up a good republican majority. TuEr say our late congress was a billion-dollar congress. Why, it was more than that; it was si two-billion-dollar congress. For under the legislation of the fifty first congress we have increased the foreign and domestic trade of this country to two billion dollars, a point it never reached before. Governor McKinley. The city election takes place next Monday. There seems to be very little interest taken in the election up to the present time, although there are several im portant issues that should receive the careful consideration of the voters. We want careful and progressive business men to fill the various offices. A BOSS REPEATER. They have some enterprising men in San Francisco, and also some very' cheap ones. The con sequence of so much enterprise in some men and so much cheapness in others is, politically, curious. An example is at hand: In giving an account ot the primary elec tions in that city on Saturday, the Call says: "Down in the forty-fifth they tell a story of the boss repeater. Jack Martin fished him up some where on the water front heaving coal. His face was black as ink and Martin voted him. A few moments latei the coal dust was washed off and he cast his second ballot. A barber removed his beard for the third dash at the polling place and then his mus tache went by1 the board.' His fourth ballot went in with the loss of the mustache, and a change of hats and coats gave another vote for the Kelly and Crimmins ticket. Martin says the whole job cost just $1.50." It must be confessed that in this case the cheapness was ex cessive. There might be a chance for lightning change actors out of a job to make good wages at San Francisco elections if better prices were paid, and it is to be hoped that the enterprising men will hereafter compete with one an other sufficiently to raise wages, or, else the cry will be raised in the city, "We are ruined by lightning cheap voters" and the I people will clean out the gang. THE OREGON PACIFIC AND JUDGE DEADY'S DECISION, In another column we publish the gist of the judge's order on hearing the case of Lindley Smyth and others against T. Egenton Hogg and ethers. It seems to us not only a complete vindication of Colonel Hogg's course in the whole matter of the sale and i purchase of the road, through Mr. Job as his agent, but also that the judge recognizes the public interest at stake. He does what he can to re move the obstacle which the "kick ing" set of bondholders, for one reason or another, have tried, to put in the way of Col. Hogg aud his friends in their efforts to set the road on its feet and push it through to Boise City. It is plain that the order that Judge Deady made was the effect of the proofs submitted in the pile of affi davits on both sides, which evidently convinced him that as a bare matter of law he might very properly dis miss the plaintiffs' bill and turn them out of court; but that, through these same affidavits, the iudse saw also that the success of the whole great enterprise might de pend on harmony of action by all the bondholders, and that there was still a chance, throngh the agreement or stipulation which Col. Hogg had submitted to the plaintiffs several weeks ago, ot putting a final stop to this quarreling and litigation. This seems to have been the motive for Judge Deady's evident anxiety to have the agreement adopted by both ' parties. We sincerely hope, in the iuterest of this whole community, that the judge's well intended efforts to se cure and enforce peace may succeed. We have no doubt that, judging by the persistency with which Col. Hogg ap pears by these affidavits to have sought the same end, no hesitancy will appear on his, (Col. Hogg's), part in seconding the judge's efforts by a prompt adoption of the agreement pro posed by Judge Deady. THE ASSESSOR. It seems to us that the demo cratic papers are making them selves extremely ridiculous in the eyes of the voters of Benton county, by advancing the argu ment against Captain Robertson's ability to judge of the value of property that he has been a sea eaptain and master of a vessel, and that such a .-man has little knowledge of the value of pro perty. Such an assertion is absurd. We doubt it there is a man in Benton county better ac quainted vvith the values of all classes of property and who has had a wider experience in I hat line than Captain Robertson, the republican candidate for assessor. He was born in Maine and lived on a farm until he became a young man. Then he went to sea and worked his way up from before the mast to master, and lor a number of years was master of both sailing and steam vessels in the Merchants Marine. He has been in nearly every port of the world, with cargos consisting of almost every known article of commerce, from a mule, cow, or sheep, to a cargo of wheat, mer chandise or farming implements. Every one knows the master of a ship must be,thouroughly acquain ted with every article of freight on his ship and that he must keep a record of the exact value of each article, entrusted to his care; hence, to be master of a ship, it requires a man of good judgment in the values of property as well as in other matters. The enptain has always been a, staunch republican and was for a number of years a , member of the Kings county, N. Y., republican club, of which Tom Piatt was president, and did active service for the republican party ! during the Blaine and Cleveland ( campaign. i For the past five years he has 1 been in the real estate business at the bay and in 1890 was census enumerator of the western portion of Benton county, and in tins ca pacity alone he became well ac- i quainfed with much of the pro- J perty in Benton county. It is simply ridiculous to question the j ability of a man like Captain Robertson, whose wide experience in handling property of every description on land and sea has especially fitted him for the office of assessor, and ' we think the voters of Benton county will elect Captain Robertson by a handsome majority in preference to his opponent, a Kings valley man, who has lived all of his life on a little ranch over in - the burnt woods district, or in some 'logging camp,- who probably ... does not know how to make the Urst entry 1 in a set of books, or has had little i if any experience in actual busi-l ness. What would he know about ' the value of a town lot or a stock I of goods ? The people - want - a ! man of-practical experience for ' assessor,, and Captain Robertson ' has the experience and every qualification for the office. He will find all ot the property and j assess it as it Blioujd, be,. . ' The democratic candidate who counts on securing his election by trading votes, or the republican candidate who expects to add to his majority or save himself from possible defeat this year by resort ing to the same means will most likely et left, as he ought. There has been altogether too much trading and "combining" done in the past to suit the people of either party, and there is a general outcry against the nefarious prac tice. Every man has the right to vote as he pleases and use all honorable means to secure the election of the candidate he pre fers, but this trading business is not honorable, and it is going to be a cold day for traders and un derhanded schemers. Vote for E. H. Belknap for rep resentative. If you contemplate building this summer call on A. F. Peterson, con tractor and builder.
