The CmiONici.E had occasion a short
time ago to refer to the county-seat con
test in Wheeler county, by reason or the
attempt that was being made to drag
into it, in a manner they utterly reEent,
certain Dalles parties who have large
property interests in the new county.
If we' refer to the matter again it is only
because there is an unwritten code of
morals for newspaper men in their rela
tions to one another that we think
should not be violated without a solemn
protest from every generous mind.
E. M. Sbutt, who used to edit the
Antelope Herald, is conducting a little
sheet at Twickenham in the interest of
that place for the county seat. James
S. Stewart edits the Foesil Journal, and,
of course, urges the claims of his own
town. Stewart is a clean, honorable
and able Scotchman, who lias lived in
Fossil since his boyhood and whom hie
fellow citizens of Foesil have honored
with the mayorship of the town; his
brethem of the Knights of Pythias with
first chancellor commanderehip of that
order, and his brethem of the Oregon
press with the presidency of the stato
press association. The fight between
the rival editors, as was natural enough,
has been vigorous, not to sy bitter. It
remained, however, for Shutt to adopt
tactics that, happily for the honor of
the profession, as well as our common
humanity, is never resorted to save by a
sneak and a poltroon. Io the lesue of
the Wheeler county News (Shutt's
paper) ol the 25th of April, Shutt pub
lished the following:
The editor of the News is by no means
a saint ; but here are a few things, Bro.
Stewart, the people of Wheeler county
can never accuse us of being guilty of :
The News editor has never served a
term in the penitentiary of Scotland for
the commission of a dastardly crime.
He was never compelled to learn the
cobbler's trade while confined in the
penitentiary.
He never flew from Scotland or any
other country through disgrace or be
cause he could not look his old neighbors
in tiie face."
Mr. Stewart's Scottish friends four
highly respected residents of the county
came to the reFcue with incontestable
proof of Mr. Stewart's honorable boyhood
In his native land and of the fact that he
left It in the full ordor of respect of his
companions and fellowtownsmen of Ills

which this man Shutt has disgraced,

work. A direct charge of felony would

A Mltnll(l Ituuortl.
ShrrlH' Kelly submitted to the county
court this alte'ruoon his books, rolls and
vouchers, and a summary of the business
that has been done in his office since he
entered upon the duties of sheriff in '98.
Accompanying the books and documents
was the following communication :
To the Honorable County Court :
As tin time for which I have been
elected by the citizens of Wasco county
will expire before the next meeting of
tliis court, I take this opportunity of
bringing before you the books, rolls, etc.
of this county, entrusted to my care,
showing the rolls properl) balanced to
the 1st of this month, together with an
itemized statement of all collections
made and turned over to the county
treaeurer, and for which I hold his re
ceipts. It is my belief that the books of
the;6herifFs office should bo carefully
gone over at the close of each term of
office and I would ask of this court that
a thorough examination be made of
mine. I will at all times be glad to
aseiet the court in this matter, and am
ready to explain eacli and every item.
Koiikut Keu.y.
The summary is a splendid testimony
to the efficiency of Mr. Kelly as a tax
collector. It is beyond question the
beet showing that was ever made by
any eheriirthat Wasco county ever had.
It shows that Mr. Kelly has collected
no lees than $53,202 13' of taxes that
were delinquent in 1898 and of the as
sessment rolls of '95, '96 and 97. The
roll of '98 called for the collection of
.$100,931.01, including the sheriff's own
assessment list. Of this sum $92,330 40
have been collected, and Tin: Ciihonici.i:
is assured that when wrong assessments,
double assesemente and other onors are
counted up there will remain not to
exceed 1(3000 of delinquent taxes on the
roll of 1898. This is a shotting that any
man has a right to be proud of. On this
showing the republicans have a right to
claim the re-election cf Mr. Kelly by
the largest majirity ever given to a
sheriff.
It Wat HOKUM After All.
A short tune ago Tin: Chuoniole
called attention to a card that was being
circulated among railroad men in these
parts on which was printed w hat pur
ported to boa "Hsilroad Plank" adopted
by the late democratic state convention.
The Ciiuo.SH'i.B viewed the card with
suspicion, not only on account of the
surreplilious way it was being eliculated
but bmiu?e tho alleged plank it con
tained did not appear in tho Oregonlan's
report of tho convention, It will be
remembered that J ml go Bennett came
to the rescue of the sunpicious plank and
published u letter in Tin: Ciikomci.e ex
plaining how this particular plank camo
to be out and another substituted in
its place. The matter wan then fall ly
1 up to the Oregonian and that paper has
elnce mado un investigation tutu leaves
little doubt that the early (suspicious of
Tin: Ciiitosici.K were correct, that tho
whole thing was a democratic scheme to
catch railroad votes. Here it is being
used in the interest of Judge Bennett,
"the poor man's friend," God wot, and
he has it printed on tho obverse side of
his campaign card. Of the plank the
Oregonian says :

Kedlleld have certified to a plank which

The Oregonian further says Unit this
bogue plank was brought into the dem
ocratic convention by a populist the
evening before the platform was adopted,
and waa rend, and that that was the
flret and only glimpse the democratic
state convention ever had of it. It
was drafted by Judgd Uennett, as n

"that he might pose as the champion of
tho oppressed servants of corporations."
