The senate committee on com merce has finished the considera tion of the river and harbor ap propriation bill, and it will be re ported to the senate without delay. The Oregon appropriations were considered and Senator Dolph had a lively time in the committee, but succeeded in increasing the appropriations for Oregon and the Columbia river $420,000, as follows: Old. Siuslaw harbor $10,000 Yaquina By 75,000 Mouth of the Columbia 300,000 Lower Columbia aod W illamette rivers . . . 50,000 New. $ 20,000 85,000 350,000 150,000 The senator also had inserted an appropriation for $250,000 for the commencement of the boat rail way at The Dalles rapids, with Tjower iriven to the secretary of war to contract for the completion of the work, a provison similiar to that for the canal and locks at the Cascades. The senator says the aDDroDriation for the mouth of the Columbia will virtually comDlete the work, and place it in such a condition that it will not suffer until another appropriation ran be made. He hopes the $lo0 000 ; amoroDriated for the lower Willamette and Columbia rivers in addition to the amount beiru expended by the city of Portland will continue the work without loss until another appropriation can be secured. The provisions for the boat railway secures the immediate commencement of the work, its prosecution without in terruption, and its speedy com pletion. Under the provision made, the boat railway will pro bably be completed at the same time the Cascade locks are com pleted. The Yaquina appropriation would have been futher increased but the committee were not wil ling to appropriate the whole amount to complete the improve ment, and divided the amount, leaving $80,000 for the next river and harbor bill. Senator Dolph secured the provisions in the bill ibr an examination of the upper Willamette for a new project and improved navigation, and of Ya quina bay, with a view of secur ing twenty-five feet of water on the bar. The senator feels greatly elated, over his success in the committee. Vote for W. ounty recorder. S. Linville for Somk one has said. "This is ;Mr. Jolly's third attack of par aphimosis" aud then goes on to -ay that Dave Osburn is the best .man for sheriff. Strange, that while being defeated is a crime if the candidate be a republican, the more times this independent-democratic paper finds a democrat has been defeated the better it loves Jiim-. This is friend Dave's fourth attack of the paraphimosis and yet be is liable to have it any time. If Dave is the best sheriff timber Benton county supports, she ought to have free raw material and go into the manufacture of this use ful commodity. See that Jolly fias your vote he is deserving in very sense. Newport Times. There will be 444 presidential lectors in the electorial college to be voted for this fall, and the suc- Aast receive 223 votes. HOUSE DILL NO. 160. Introduced by Mr. Belknap and read first time Jan. 29, 1889. A bill for an act to appropriate money to aid the county court of Benton county to construct a wagon road from Alsea valley to Tidewater. Sec. 1. That out of the funds now in the treasury of the state of Oregon not otherwise appropri ated, the sum ot two thousand dol lars be appropriated in aiding the county court of Benton county to construct a wagon road from the Alsea valley to Tide water, at the mouth of the Alsea river in Benton county, Oregon. Sec. 2. That the county court of said county is authorized and re quired to superintend the con struction of said road within Ben ton county, and that when said road shall be completed and ready for use, the county court of said Benton county is 'authorized to draw upon the treasurer of the stafe of Oregon for the amount herein appropriated. The above is an exact copy of the bill as introduced by Hon. E. II. Belknap, in 1889. The sum this bill appropriated was the amount recommended by the county court. The county court, had at that time already expended money in the road and had made carelul examination and estimates as to the amount required in their judgment to complete the road to Tidewater. As the petition failed to name any sum as requi site for the purpose, Mr. Belknap acted on the advice and opinion of the county court, and asked and obtained the sum of two thousand dollars, which sum the said county court proceeded to ex pend, as provided in the bill, and Mr. Belknap is entitled to the credit of securing the first and only appropriation for that road from the state of Oregon, llle last republican legislature passed a bill appropriating $l,5uu more for the same road, but His Ex cellency, the Governor, vetoed the bill. Newport Times. W. S. Linville, the republican nominee tor the omce ot county recorder, is a native Oregonian, a thoroughpaced business man, who, by years of industry and close ap plication among us, has built up a reputation for perlect honesty, capacity and faithfulness in the discharge of every duty assigned him, second to none. He is well versed, through an extensive and varied business experience, with all legal papers, is a fine penman, an exnert book-keeoer. and his methodical habits acquired in keeping accounts tor large inter ests, sneciallv aualifv him for Ihe 7 Jt W JL office of recorder of Benton coun ty. His wide acauaintance with business and affairs generally, his steady habits, his high standing in social as well as business circles, his push and energy exhibited ' in all his undertakings, are factors that will draw to his support all men who desire to see a compe tent, honest and obliging man nlaced in the important office of recorder. If thorough compe tency and worth count in the se lection for an important office, then Mr. Linville will be elected recorder of Benton county next June and none will have cause to reerefc casting their vote ior him. Toledo Post. Our friends ot the democratic party are constantly urging as a reason whv Wm. Joilv. the re publican candidate for the offiice of sheriff, should be rejected at the polls next June that he has already been defeated and must necessarily be a weak man in con- quence. Would they consider the defeat of Grover Cleveland for president a valid reason for his defeat a second time? Will the Leader and the Times use that kind of an argument if he is nomi nated ? Mr. Jolly's democratic opponent, David Osburn, has been twice defeated right here in Cor vallis in a democratic stronghold. Jolly was defeated by only 18 votes in a close county, by a man the democrats considered unap proachable. Under such circum stances Jolly's defeat by so small a majority speaks volumes in his behalf. Jolly will make an effici ent officer and will always be found on hand when duty requires. Ever since Hon. Binger Her mann was first elected to congress the democratic press of the state has been seeking by every means in their power to injure his re putation and besmirch his char acter. Just the same, the gentle man - steps in at each succeeding election with a handsomer ma jority than before, and he will beat all previous records this year; 6ee if he don't. All who vote for D. C. Rose for county treasurer can rest as sured that they will vote for a worthy man, one who is honest, capable and obliging. He is a veteran who has served his country well, and he will serve the county well, if elected. QUESTIONS FOR REPUBLICANS TO ANSWER. ' In view of the fact that republi can patronage has been so be stowed as to build up an excess of democratic newspaper circulation it is time that a lew .uipu.ta.Ji. questions should be pressed on the attention of all earnest re- nnKlins While but lew demo crats patronize republican papers great numbers of republicans take rlpmorx.ilie papers regularly and give them liberal support. They will, no doubt, continue to ao so. Republicans are disposed to read both sides and listen to what the onnosition has to sav. and while no objection may be made to this practice in itselt it is certainly time to protest when such patron age of the democratic press is ac companied with neglect of repub lican papers. It may be, ot course, that some republicans are so throughly informed that they can learn nothing horn their local re publican papers, but such instances are certainly rare. As the most powerful agency to pro mote the success ot the party and to inclncate and preserve patriotic principles, the local republican naners in every locality merit rne generous support of earnest repub licans. Take democratic papers if vou choose, but not to the neglect of those of your own party. Let everv reouplican put nun- self on the stand and propound such questions as these: Is there a republican paper puo- lished in your county? If so do you get a copy of such paper reg ularly, and Jo j'ou pay ior it promptly? Do vou make any effort to in duce vour friends to aid in extend ing the circulation of local re publican papers? Is vour lnendship lor the republican press active or passive? Are vou aware that the republican party has been put at a great dis advantage through the lailure oi republicans to give liberal aid and support to the republican press? Koseburg JtMaindealer. Some democratic miscreant, with a woful lack of good sound horse sense, has taken it upon himself to promulgate the report that Hon. C. B. Crosno and SVil lard Linville had combined for the purpose of defeating B. W. Wilson for the office of clerk, elect Ira Hunter to that position and in two vears elect Linville to the clerk ship. The utter foolishness and nonsense of such an absurd state ment must be apparent to all, and the fact that any person in the possession of their faculties should make such a declaration makes it easy to see that the opposition is hard up for campaign ammunition It is scarcely necessary to say that there is not the slightest shadow of truth in the report. As the day of election ap proaches, the democrats are be coming desperate. They are busy circulating reports (among republicaus however) how one republican candidate is working against another, and how republi cans are fighting like Kilkenny cats in some other precinct. At present the precincts are widely separated, but of- course the nearer election day approaches the nearer the fighting will be When a true republican hears such things he either traces the re port to an authentic source, and if it is found to be true, endeavors to harmonize the differences, or else pays no attention to rumors, A dispatch " from La Grande, dated May 17, says: "The demo cratic campaign was to have been opened in this city today by a speech by G. W. Bell, of Washing ton, who was extensively advertis ed as an eloquent expounder of democratic doctrine. Notwith standing the efforts made to get out a crowd, so few appeared that the gentleman refused to deliver his address. Several of the demo cratic - candidates of both the county and district are in the city, and are much discouraged at the apparent lack of interest shown. Oregonian. The Reporter, of Ellsworth. Kansas, has this to say of D. C Rose, the republican nominee for treasurer; "D. C. Rose, we re member, was one of the early set clers of the Mulberry, in this county. Several years ago he re moved from Mulberry to Corval lis, Oregon, where he has since resided. We congratulate Mr. Rose and. feel proud of the honor conferred upon him." Do the voters want a sheriff who will make that office one to which they can point with satis faction which Mr. Jolly's well known carefulness and high stand ing will assure for it? Every person iuterested in the management of this county's af fairs should help to elect Joe Ed wards, of Monroe, for county commissioner. HO W THEY ARE DOING IT. Ed. Gazette: Last Sunday Virgil Watters, the 'democratic candidate for recorder, was elec tioneering for himself and Osburn in Kings valley, and his method of so doing is deserving of some attention. Not only does he make use of the old democratic plan of setting up the drinks to the boys, but also tells them that whenever they are in Corvallis to call on Osburn and their meals, drinks and cigars free of charge will be furnished while they are in town. I would like to say that the Kings valley people do not have to sell their votes for whiskey or meals when they come to Corvallis. They are well able to pay for their own meals and drinks; if not, they can take a lunch with them. Kings Valley Resident. Editor Gazette: I desire to see fair play on all sides and while I do not beleive in throwing mud during political campaigns, the democrats have seen fit to circu late the report in some portions of the county, that Captain Robert son is a whiskey sot and is not . fit for the office of assessor, for the purpose of injuring his reputation among the temperance people and gaining votes for their man Alex ander. While the Captain is a jolly good fellow and may take an ocassional drink or cigar with the boys, he is far from being a whis key sot, nor was he ever guilty of keeping a public saloon in his own house, as did Asa Alexander for three weeks before the election two years ago, where Mackay whiskey flowed as free as water and the young voters of Kings Valley gathered on Sundays and were fill ed up to intoxication. The writer drank Mackav whiskey two years ago with Alexander at his house, but the whiskey did not buy his vote for Mackay nor will it. buy it for Osburn or Alexander at the coming election. A Voter. For the office ot prosecuting attorney for this judicial district S. W. Condon of Lane county hjis served one term and has filled ihe office with universal satisfaction to all. He has had learge psactice as an attorney and should be re elected. See that his name is on your ticket when you vote next June. Our democratic contemporary asks if Mr. Jolly has ever shown any particular qualifications which make him capable of filling the office of sheriff if elected. We think he has. He has always been success! ul in the manage ment of his own business affairs, and has shown himself a good business man in every way. Can as much be said in favor of his opponent on the democratic ticket? From present indications, says the Portland Oracle, judging from what you hear in "going around," Hon. F. A. Moore, the republican candidate for supreme judge, will carry Multnomah county by over 3,000 majority. For twenty eight years B. W. Wilson has occupied the position of county clerk. During all that time lie has discharged his duties faithfully and shown that he is just the man to retain in that po sition. Not only do we want a man of ability lor county school superin tendent, but one of broad edu cation and culture. That man is T. H. Gragg. You certainly want the funds of the county to be in sale hands. Then vote for D. O. Rose for treasurer. The county campaign opened in real earnest at Waldport yefter day. Jos. Edwards is just the man you want for commissioner. A REPBESEN TA VIVE WA N TED. In former articles we have advised going to the next legislature hy our citizens to obtain the relief necessary from undue taxation. This, of course, should be done by and through the city council if possible, but if failiug in this, a strong petition of property own ers backed by tespunsible uiun to urge the necessary changes in the charter, must be adopted. Another effective weapon may be used in the coming election, for at that time two repre sentatives to the legislature are to le elected. One ol the candidates is, or was, city attorney during the sitting of the last legislature, and was there urg ing the passage of the charter under which we now live. . All this time very little was known outside of the council as to the fea tures of the charter. But with the citizens, or many of them, there were grave forebodings. - These led to a petition being sent to our represen tatives with letters praying them thst nT'tlie charter preparedly the council for their . use, the interests of the property owners should be proteoted,. The city attorney and members of Ihe council were aware of these proceed ings and, we suppose, caused our ef forts to miscarry. It is not out of place here . to say that when we saw the charter in print, it was more serious than we expected.; it is, we think, whether intentional or not, "Tam many" through and through. Further, that though Mr. Jeffries frustrated our -wishes of softening the lines of the taxpayer, the work no doubt was done under instruction, "and now, if he would undo that which never should have been done, he would be the best representative the citizens could have. Otherwise, no vote of the property owners should be cast foi him. There is no one who can regret more than the writer having to write the words we have written, for we have always held the gentleman in great respect and desire his prosperity, but our complaint is serious and se vere, nor can good citizenship give way to friendship.
