The following letter shows the estimate1
placed on the Republican ticket by a
prominent Douglas County Republican,
now in Alanka:
Skaoway, April 10, 1000.
Hon. E. D. Stratford,
Roseburg, Oregon.
Dear Judge: I have just received the
Roseburg papers in which is announced
the result of the work of the Douglas
County Convention. As a resident of
Douglas county and a member of the
Itepubhcan party, I wish to nay that I
am glad to know that the Republican of
old Douglas have nominated a winuiog
ticket. -The ticket it seems to me com
bines all of the elements of good Repub
lican strength and with good manage
mentBbould be elected "without the lore
of a man.'' The watchword with Re
publicans should be, "elect every man on
the ticket, or elect none." This is not
the year to scratch or trade. If there is
anything that I can do to help the mat
ter of Republicanism along, let me know.
It is not likely however that I will be
able to get to Roseburg to vote. My wife
and eelf ate well. Iam still kept very
busy, and don't have much time for out
side matters. Give my regards to
friends. Sincerely yours,
C. A. Sehlbbede.
