Tne republican legislating could

opposed one of your own parly

It was republicans who downed
H-rmann. It was republicans
who defeated Mitchell. It was
republicans who retired Ellis.

L'-t mo

workers for Yaquina
are not mere political accidents.
Did it ever strike you as peculiar
I hat Ihe same man who whipped
in the republican lorces to defeat
Dolph, also engineered ihe fight
against Mitchelll Was not Jona
than Bourne the leader in both
billies against these men ?
It ple:.ises yon newspapers to
ascribe their defeat to functional
politic-, the money question, etc.
These things were only raised to
receive sympathy and support.
Dolph, Mitchell, Hermann and
Ellis were defeated by business
interests for business purposes.
Portland and the transportation
companies centering there, are
quietly but effectively operating
against Yaquina and A.toria.
Fortunately, in defeating Yaqui
na's friends so far, they have not
succeeded in filling their places
with Yaquina and Astoria ene
mies. But they expect to event
ually control matters to their
wishes.
If the O. R & N. Co., the North
Pacific Terminal company and
"tuer large corporations can anoro
1 o put their business interests

can the people of the Willamette J

I do not believe that the Ga
zette nor any republican who op
uosed Dolph or Mitchell is in a

must have many other qualifica

any, man believes that Ihe tax
