From tho Portland Mercury (Hep.)
Tho Democratic tiurty promised, beforo
leaving here for Pendleton, to give us
"thu bust in the shop," ami it is quite
evident tliuy have done so in their selec
tion of Hon. .lolm M. (icariu, their can
didate for Congress. Hu Is ono of tho
"Native Sons of Oregon," born on the
desert out of which have arisen such fair
and beautiful young cities us Pendleton,
Weston, Walla Walla and Arlington. Ho
grew up in this city and read law with
Mitchell Dolph, then the leading law
llrm of thu Statu. Hu has since been
one of tho hard-working lawyers In thlH
city, mid Is professionally the peer of any
man in this Stato, of Ids own age.
What he wants of this nomination for
Congress, unless hu thinks his chiinccft
for election butler than those of his pre
decessors, we cannot Imuglnu. I ur idea
is that .Mr. (icariu will either lie elected,
or else that ho will be defeated by 11 ma
jority so small that Mr. Hermann will
nave nothing over which to exult. Mycin
took thu nomination in 18S2, looking to a
federal itPHiutmcnt in the event of a
Democratic President two years later,
whllo Fenton and Kntler belong t.o a cer
tain class of politicians who regard it
nomination for Congress iisiicompHmeiit,
even with tho certainty of defeat staring
them in tho face.
(icariu Is a man of diU'ereiit material.
Hu is not looking for anv federal upwlnt
mcnt, nor does hu ask the nomination as
an advertisement, to let thu people of
Oregon know there is such 11 lawyer in
Portland as John M. (ieiirln. He would
not risk tho expense of it canvass of tho
Stato If hu did not foresee a very fair
cliancu for an election ; and as he liclongs
to the tribe of Ivll, It would not surprise
us If ho gut there with both feet. Mr.
Hermann has had thu advantage of the
vote of u majority parly, hitherto, coupled
with thu fact that neither of his opponents
w ere men capable of making tin aggres
sive light. This lime hu lias struck 11
very dnTcront kind of an antagonist, and
it would not astonish us if he were com
pelled, however reluctantly, to lower his
Ilg.
