not been lost to view. Ono of these Ideals wns tho dedication, of Tho
Times to tho people of this city. That Ideal haB boon renllzed. 1 have
tried to build up where 1 could nnd tear down nowhere. It hns over
been my purpose to help, not to hinder tho events of material nnd mo

been truo to my editorial trust. Mnklnfi duo allowuuco for mistakes of

it is In the hearts of a people generous und Just to admit some of these
things.

It. He has stntod his willingness to submit tho wnter question to n vote
of tho people but 'Mil not deny his porsonnlly oxpressed opinion ngnlnst
municlpni ownership.
During tho four yenrs I hnvo been in Mnrshflold nnd Including this
rtmp-ilgn I hnvo not spent In nil two hours' tlmo in tho company of Mr.
Copple. I hnvo spont many hours with Dr. Straw. I may not pos
ro. mnny of tho much vaunted virtues of Dr. Straw as voiced by bis
friends but that I havo some of his weaknesses, I nm willing to ndmit. So
cially nnd personally, Dr. Straw Is ono of tho most congenial nnd com
pnnlonnblo of mon. Ho hns llknblo nnd lovnblo qunlltlos. Dut tho ls
suo In this campaign Is not to bo solved nt n pink ten or a congenial
gathering of good follows whore tho ''tea" Is red. This la a question
thnt involves n vital lssuo for tho present and future wolfnro ot Murah
flold. When I came to Coos Day four years ago I expected to romaln only
n fow daye but fato and a kindly Providence provided othorwlso.

1 nm writing this to mnko plnln the fnct thnt thoro Is nothing por

oring to creato. I nm appealing to tho reason of tho renders of this
paper who know what Tho Times represents in Its advocacy of public
policies and principles. It Is not a question of Copplo, Straw or Mc
Crary. It is a question of J. W. Dennett nnd others domlnntlng tho Blt
untlon to tho detriment of tho peoplo nnd for personnl gnln. Tho
issuo Is fnlrly drawn. Let It bo decided upon merits nnd not upon mon.
It Is n prlnclplo not n person thnt Is nt stake In this election. Thnt
princlplo la ono that la vital to tho health nnd happlnesa of Mnrshflold
homes. A prlnclplo thnt Is vltnl to Its development nnd prosperity,
