A sort of political family conference. The republican party In Oregon nt present Is In tho Btato of tho boy who went out to herd tho cows. When asked whero ho went he eald: "I went up tho lnne to Johnson's, then went to the end of tho lnne and then scattered." Tho democrats are being galvanized Into the semblance of life by the shock thnt haB temporarily Jarred tho republican party. As my friend, Geo. Wntklns, said In that strong and Interesting statement In The Times last Saturday, It was n "poppery family row" while Jt InBted. By tho way, Judgo Wat kins' nrtlclo was one of tho best thnt I have read on tho present situa tion. Judgo Wntklns was with Tho Times In opposition to tho Assembly, but our fighting Is all within tho party lines and on tho preservation of principles. As the Judgo pointed out, tho primary law was given us by tho republicans of Oregon, and not by tho democrats. If thcro aro somo who wish to take It away wo should not repudiate tho entlro party for the sins of n few. It Is true that some of our Assembly friends do not accept tho verdict with very good grace, but that Is no reason for refusal to stay by our principles. My feelings In referenco to some of our As sembly friends arc similar to thoso of the little fellow who, having In his morning devotion expressed n wish thnt tho Lord might 'bo nblo to make his brother Charlie a good boy. In his evening prnyor ho said: I still hppe, Lord, that you enn mnko Chnrllo n good boy; but to be frank with you, it don't Beem to mo tho ronl Charlie has changed n bit slnco morning." Whllo this Is truo of somo ABsemblyltcs, tho majority havo accepted tho situation, and from Jay Bowormnn down to George Trcndgold havo endorsed tho choice of tho prlmnrlcs and pledged fealty to tho candidates and tho party principles. Republicans Bhould not bo misled by democratic pledges and prom ises nt u time like this. Tho democrats lovo us not for our principles but for our votes. The republicans of Coos county Bhould support tho party nominees and roll up a rnttllng old-tlmo republican majority for every cnndldnto nn tho ticket. Tho majority of republlcnnn nro partisans from principle.
