"No, lr," said a prominent repub

lice commission business a farce. One

Joke. That kind of politics will not be
Indorsed even by those who have been
in the habit ot swallowing anything the

Is determined to purify national poll-

"What will the council do about the
police commission r said a councilman
yesterday morning, In answer to an In
qulry. "Well, I'll tell you what they
ought to do. Some time ego I was tin
portuned by a republican leader to ue
my efforts to have the offices of Barker
and Cook declared vacant, and have the
mayor appoint two police commission
era I agreed to It, provided that one
republican and one democrat be ap
pointed, aa Barker la a republican and
Cook is a democrat, leaving the board
aa it now stands, we are willing to do
this or w will put up candidates
against their candidates and elect them
The offices of Barker and Cook ought
to be declared vacant by the council
and the vacancy filled. If this Is done
and Mayor 8urprenant appoints one
republican and one democrat, I am
satisfied the council will confirm the
appointments unanimously.

"The time has come," said a prom I
nent business man, "for a reorganize
tion of the republican party. All of Its
best workers bave been read out of
the party, and It Is completely demoral
lzed, so far aa city and county politics
are concerned. I will tell you what we
are going to do. We are going to form
an organisation ot all republicans op
posed to ring rule, unite with the cltt
sens at next December and Juno elec
tions, and put up a citlsens ticket, com
posed equally of republicans and demo
crats. The democrats have agreed to
this. Then the manufacturers of do-
lice commissioners on the Installment
plan, can put up their slate and we'll
put a bigger crack in It than has been
discovered In the moon. A large ma
jority of the republicans are with us
In this movement, and It is a sure go.

Well, sir, what do I think of the po
lice commission business? Well, I be
lieve as a great many others do, that
when men leave the state, take their
families with them, and have no in
terests here, as neither Barkr or Cook
have, that their offices should be de
clared vacant, and the vacancies filled
according to the charter. They would
hold until the next city election, at
which time a new police commission
can be elected. I am opposed to poli
tical chicanery and the nomination of
officers by a few of the select. The re
publicans will not stand for it any long
er .and it Is time this was understood1
by those who are trying to wreck the it
party."

"No! Honest to God, I didn't know a
thing about my name being put on the
ballot for police commissioner until the
votes were counted In the Second
ward," said one of the recently self
elected police commissioners. "I havn't
decided what to do in the matter,
am like Carnegie, I don't care to be
Interviewed on such a painful sub
Ject."

"Oh, I don't care," said Chief Hal-
lock. "As soon as the item appeared in
the Astorian, I was offered three dlf
lerent Jobs, at larger salaries than I
am receiving now. I have tried to be
honest, and there is not a man living
who can say there has been any graft
in my office. I know I am accused of
it, like everybody that holds a public
office, but I am charitably inclined and
overlook the Ignorance of politicians
who are only actuated by mercenary
motives. I expect to continue as chief
of police untu my successor Is appoint,
ed. I bave handled over $30,000 of the
city's money this year, and every cent
has been turned . over to the proper
officer, and I have the receipts. No city
on the coast Is as free from crime as
Astoria, and I think the police ought to
be given some credit for it. It has
certainly saved the tax-payers of the
city and county thousands of dollars.

"My opinion Is," said a conservative
republican, "that the police commission
should be reorganized. We have no
police commission now, and haven't
had for Ave years. It Is a disgrace to
the city that such a stats of affairs

Red Cedar Shingle Assoeistion Held
Meeting.
At an executive session ot the Red
Cedar Shingle association, which was
held in this city yesterday afternoon,
It was decided to dissolve the organl
aatlon. The meeting was executive
and no one outside of the regular
to b present. From an Inside source,
however, It was afterwards learned
that the general Impression prevailed
that the conditions warranted the
radical measure of disincorporating
the association.
The action terminating the official
existence ot thla association will prob
ably not be taken until after the first
ot the year, when the stockholders will
hold a meeting.
The real object to be obtained
this action is the organisation of
new company on an entirely different
plan from the first. !t is desired
provide for a better control of the
market, steady prices and to Improv
conditions generally for the mill own
era.
ine particular renture or the new
organisation la said to be the object
of cutting adrift from "the agents' or
dealers' Interests, which heretofore
have bvn largely Influential In the
working In the Interests of the cutters
or mill owners. To secure this result
It Is declared that the executive com
mlttee has worked diligently, and, for
obvious reasons, the members attend
lng the meeting exhibited great ills
inclination to speak of the matter for
publication.
Originally, when the market was be
coming demorailxeii, the mill owners
formed the organisation to protect the
sales and better prices for their goods.
For a time this worked out success
fully, but the bad winter In the east
and other conditions brought about
poor trade there and the mill owners
themselves refused to cut the output
materially. The result was that the
eastern markets became overstocked
and the overplus, or a portion of
It
from the Washington mills was dls
patched by the association In transit.
The dealers and intents then came In
and It is from this direction, the
lulm Is miule, tliut trw existing trou
bles came.
It Is the intention, after the present
association Is dissolved, to reorganise
with an entirely different set of stock
