"NEVER SUPPORT FULTON"
STATEMENT MADE BY STATE
CHAIRMAN MATTHEWS
It Does Appear that Some One Wants
to be United States
Has Not Yet Been
Wanting the Office.
Tho following Interesting article
is takon from the Portland Journal:
"MULTNOMAH WILL NEVER
SUPPORT FULTON. I TOLD HIM
SO LONG AGO.
This was one 6T the interesting
statements made by State Chairman,
Jack Matthews at an interview wiui

in the matter.
This statement .appeared to rouse

Governor Geer, so Mr. Lyons says, is i
on the official ballot as a republican,
and he, acting for the governor,
came to demand of Mr. MatthowB an
explanation of the reason why the
name was omitted.
On being admitted to the office of
the state chairman, Mr. Lyon produc
ed a copy of a paper in which the
state republican ticket appears, and
asked Mr. Matthews for what reason
the name of Governor Geer had been
left out; was It the Intention to ig
nore Governor Geer's claims, or not?
Mr. Matthews in reply stated that
he had not given the matter any con
sideration, but that at a casual
clance he did not consider tnat gov
ernor Geer's name was entitled to ap
pear on the ticket, for the reason tnat
he was not a nominee of the republi
can state convention. In reply, Mr.
Lyon urged that under the Mays law
a nomination by petition of the peo
ple is fully as effective as the nomi
nation by a state convention, and
answers the same purpose. For that
reason he thought the name should
appear on the advertised lists the
some as it does on the official ballot.
Secretary of State Dunbar, he said,
had recognized Mr. Geer's nomina
tion by petition, and, although after
some delay, had consented to place
his name on the official ballot as a re
publican. This, 'Mr. Lyon claimed,
furnished a sufficient reason why
Gorevnor Geer should he recognized
as a ropublioan nominee.
Mr. Matthews denied that a nomi
nation under the Mays law made any
difference so far as he' was concerned.
He took no cognizance of anything
that was done by anybody other than
the state convention.
"I DON'T KNOW," he said, "WHAT
LsDUCED MR. DUNBAR TO PUT
GOVERNOR GEER'S NAME ON
THE OFFICIAL BALLOT, EXCEPT
IT WAS TO PROTECT HIS FRIEND
FULTON. I will say to you iranwy
Mint-. T rln tint believe that Governor
Geer has any right to be represented
in this list" (referring to tne printeu
advertisement). It is tho opinion of-
a number of my friends that HE HAS
NO RIGHT ON THE OFFICIAL
BALLOT AS A REPUBLICAN. Per
sonally I have nothing against Gov
ernor Geer, but he vetoed the Port
land charter when he had no right
to do so and for that reason I have
fought him."
To this Mr. Lyon responded that
the Portland charter was vetoed at tho
solicitation of a largo number of the
business men of the city, and hinted
that, although It had probably damag
ed in a pecuniary way the people

In a further discussion which en
sued as to Governor Geer's candidacy,
Mr. Matthews volunteered the state
ment that the candidates on his tic
ket had been assessed for the ex
penses of the campaign, "and," he ad
ded, "we have never asked Geer for
a cent."
Mr. Lyon replied without a mo
ment's hesitation and with fire in his
eye: "What Is Mr. Geer's assess
ment?" "We do not want any money from
Geer," replied Mr. Matthews, in a
tone which showed that the bluff was
"called," and for a moment a colli
sion between the representatives of
the two interests appeared to be im
minent. Matters soon quieted uown.
however, and although the sparring
was continued for some time, the
only satisfaction Mr. Lyon could ob
tain was the promise that Mr. Mat
thews woud consult with some of
his friends and that if it could be
shown to him that it was his duty
to accord Governor Geer recognition,
his name would appear in the print
ed slips within two days.
During the course of the interview,
repeated knocks on the locked door
of the sanctum sauctorium had dis
tracted the attention of the parties
to the above colloquy, and had, per
haps, on different occasions, prevent-
the heated argument from developing
into an open rupture, and as the ,
time of Mr. Matthews was being tak-j
en without possibility of any satis-!
factory understanding being arrived
at, Governor Geer's emissary depart-1
ed, convinced that his visit had ac-
cni pushed nothing, and with him
went the Journal man. hanny to
escape without Injury from what had
been so hot a corner.

A letter was received by the county
clerk Wednesday from Thomas H.
Scantlin, of Ilwaco, Wash., asking
for information about this county.
Mr. Scantlin says mat he is a black
smith and wagon maker and that he
wants the information for a number
of friends as well as himself. He
says "We wish to know the resources
of" the county, price of land, pro
ducts grown, wages paid for labor,

The East Oregonian Is requested
to publish the following song, writ

Bring the good old bugle, boys, we'll

We'll sing it with a spirit to show
that we're not wrong,
Sing a3 we always sing with a heart
that's true and strong,
While wo are working for Georgie!
Chorus
Hurrah! Hurrah! we sing the jubilee
Hurrah! Hurrah! for democracy
pure and free;
So we'll sing the chorus, till from
Scotty we are free,
While we are working for Georgie!
Chamberlain and his followers, "they
can't get there, you bet"
So Scotty bravely shouted but still
he fumes and frets
We've furnished 30.000 and there's
more to Furnish yet,
If we can only beat Georgie!
Chorus, Hurrah
Furnish is a nice young man, but 1
think he'll find it true,
He made a great mistake, my boys,
In Joining Scotty's crew.
And though tho elephant's big and
strong it will not carry him
through
When he is fighting our Georgie!
Chorus, Hurrah-
