THE RING'S METHOpS.
This community is afflicted
with a ring of political bosses
whose methods have become re
pulsive to all self-respecting peo
ple. The purpose of the ring is
to deceive voters in order to con
tinue their adherents of the ting
in public office; to harass and
make false representations about
those the ring cannot control and
make do its biadine. its opera
tions and baneful influences ex
tend to every nook and corner of
Benton county. Its false repre
sentations and deceptive methods
are as numerous as the rapidity
with which human lmajinat on
can devise one falsehood to fol
low another. Its methods ex
tend to political adherents as
well as to opponents.
It tlie ring's bo-ses imagine
that more voters can be influ
enced by assailing a former party
affiliate, than can be had by let
ting him go in peace, they pounce
upon him with the vigor of a ti-
ger upon its prey, vvniie every
man or business not pliant Tools
to its schemes, becomes the ob
jeet of ifs attacks, slurs and in
sinuations that no gentleman
would pursue against a neighbor.
The ring applies its favorite vo
cation all year round, conveying
tattle from republican to republi
cs, in order that enmity between
neighbors may be kept continual
ly burning, creating strife that
may lead to assistance of the
bosses in future political cam
paigns. Political and paity affiliates
ate frequently found to be vic
tims of its disgraceful attacks
aud deceptive practices. The
homes of political opponents
have been invaded with unholy
hands and their private papers
dragged forth into the streets and
public gaze, when the papers so
wrongfully secured contained
nothing out of the common run
of private matter. But it suited
the occasion for a grand-stand
play of the bluff, brag aud de
ception ot the political bosses.
With the h'gh leader ot the
ring on the stump and in public
places, reiterating the fragmen
tary untruths and deceptive inu
endoes first published in the
ring's organ, assisted by the
ljng-familiar sayings of assist
ants, reiterated in the anonymous
booklet still-born without a fath
er to own it or a mother to car
ess it, and so freely laid upon
the dooi steps of the farmers of
this county, portraying in vivid
terms the daik methods and un
holy practices of the bosses for
the last ten years, plainly
branded on its face, is evidence
that the information on which
that intended calumny was baed
was collected in aud came direct
ly from the files of the county-
clerk s omce, snowing in unmis
tikable terms the headquarters of
the Corvallis ring of political
bosses, with the Corvallis Times,
the duly authorized organ of the
ring, stepping nimbly forward
in the open to "rake chestnuts
from the fire" and convey its
calumny abroad, assisted by a
few lesser lights expecting to
gather the few crumbs willed by
the greater bosses.
With three-fourths of a dozen
candidates nominated on the
democratic ticket all from within
the corporate limits of the Citv
ot Corvallis, it would seem t'j a
casual observer tbat the bo s s I the fjmf s immediately for puhlica
had p epared for a corporate city j Hon; all innocent and proper, when
election but such was the wi:l :
of the line, and certainly this j

gates in llie convention from the
country could have no influence
in presenting candidates lrom
the country, for it was so de
creed by the bosses that every
office which paid a good salary
j
for the service must go to a can- rendered in a similar case m Mult
didate in the corporate limits of nonaah county, which decision
the Citv of Corvallis. When the shows conclusive that - the claim

. j mnAA'a frT
atry presented a candidate for
ir choice who lived in Corval-
their

because the delegates did not
live within the corporate limits
of the Citv of Corvallis.
It was so decreed by the ring .
nt hnisp livincr wirhi:i the cor !
porate limits of Corvallis. As to
whether or not their candidates
so nominated are qualified to per
form the duties of t their office,
within the corporate limits of
Corvallis, is not the question, for
it was done bv the decree of the
bosses. But the living and all-
absorb in r issue in this campaign
is, will the people, the good
democrats of Benton county,
continue to lend their aid to per
petuate the reign of the ring of
the bosses? Or will they qu'etly
vote the republican ticket and
thus place their seal of condem
nation upon the sacreligious and
unprincipled methods of the ring
of the 'bosses? You have boys
growing up. You have families
that you love and cherish, and
the darkest cloud, the severest
blot, which for the past ten years
has enveloped Bentou county is
the demoralizing influences of
the methods of the ring of politi
cal bosses. Its tendency is to
corrupt the youth and demoral
ize every thing good and just and
honest. There is nothing free
from its unholy touch aud invec
tive. If you elect the democratic
ticket you will confirm the ring
of bo.-ses in its firm resolution
to continue to outrage and de
ceive the masses, as is decreed by
the Corvallis ring of political
bosses. The republican candi
dates are well qualified to perform
the duties of the various offices
for which they are nominated,
and if elected the ring: of bosses
will be notified by 3-our votes
that the people will not further
stand their deceptive, false meth
ods and ungentlemanly practices.
FARMERS NEED NOT APPLY.
The ring of political bosse?,
through their spokesman, the Times,
urges that J. O. Wilson should not
be elected clerk because he has a
farm. That means that no farm
er should run for office, and that,
accounts for the reason that the
ring of the bosses nominated thrt'p
fourths of a doon of all ot their
ticket, from people who live in the
corporate limits of Corvallis, he
cause it, 'has been decreed by the
ring of political bosses that not a
single man is entitle J to oliiee with
adequate salary, who is a farmer or
who lives outside of the corporate
limits of Corvallis. But the po
litical bosses have decreed that, an
office with little or inadequate pay
that affords starvation wage?, js
good enough for a farmer who lives
outside of the corporate limits of
the city of Corvallis. On the other
hand there is our congenial friend,
our dear Bro. Watters, who has re
sisted so long the temptation of the
bosses until he has lauded on top,
becoming the head ot the bosses.
With temptation put aside at last
on the stump he insists that his
opponent should not be elected be
cause he has not more property
than the dear Bro. Watters. And
furthermore on the stump he and
also the Time?, hio congenial
spokesman, contented with knock
down argument, convincing to all,
that by all means should be elect
ed the dear Bro. Watteis, bt cause
a man over in Corvallis, a kind cf
a man, jiifrt a scare crow you know,
has some property; who sells phy
sic, and runs a cheese factorv and
sells cheese, and for all these reas
ons the dear Bro. Watters should
be elected because it would not be
so binding you know. Then there
is the booklet laid so freely on the
door steps of the farmer. It is true
there is no one's name signed to it.
Tlu effort was still-born. The
booklet was printed. No author
appears to ell the good farmer who
invaded his door step to present
the document. The farmer reads
that the information contained
therein is on record in the ceunty
clerk s ofhee, and he can go there
and reed it for himself. The reader
then r asons that the information
was gleaned from the clerk's office
while the dear Bro. Watters was
asleep because if he knew of it, and
'as the wandering waif has lost its
paten. it y. go good and great a man

berlain's decision being ommit

one. The Times, Mr. Watters'
authorized spokesman, says that
the Times told the truth about the
transaction. A familiar saying
that "a tiuth half told is equal to
a whole lie" is generallyvr ver',
very irue. We are willn -o leave
the readers to judge whether the
Times told the truth or published
just enough to deceive the public.
If the la'.ttir, then the publication
was false in fact and untrue. But
in harmony with the profound say
ings of the dear Bro. Watters "these
are the facts, gentlemen, and you
are reasonable men "and we leave
this with vou to form your own
conclusion." Again we repeat,
will the voters, the good, candid,
fair-minded democrats, vote to con
tinue that soit of dissembling and
deception, or will they quietly vote
the republican t'eket and assist the
Gazette in purifying the impure
political metliods si long forced up
on thft people?
Voters wilJ call to mind that the
clerk's office when run by the late
B. W. Wilson was run entirely dif
ferent,. Mr. Wilson attended strict
ly to his own affairs, letting severe
ly alone patrons' and othpr peoples'
business. In his time the county
records were not used to cast slurs,
misrepreren'.ationB and insinuations
over the conduct of customers of
the office. He performed well his
duties as cleik, leaving the records
to be construed by the courts and
not by political bosss But since
those good old limes the conduct of
the e'erk's office has changed. Af
ter Mr. Wilson was elected lie knew
no friend, no foe. Those who op
posed his election got. precisely th
same treatment as his most devoted
followers. But since that time an
opposing party man, or any man
who happened to own more proper
ty than the c!erk thought h should
own, if he went to the clerk's office
or before the courts to do business
for himself or clients, was in danger
of having the reeords sent out of
the office, innocent in Ihemselves
but eo published as to be used as
political claptrap to annoy the par
ly. And for this infidelity to sa
cred duties oi the tiust imposed by
the office the voters are asked to
promote the gentleman to another
four yrar's term of office and that
to he h ludicial office. The voter
would naturally ask; If unfair in
a clerical office, can a man be more
fair and just in a judicial office?
THE TIMES' OWNERSHIP.
ine limes and its governing
ring of political bosses, takes
much exception to, and heralds
abroad to the voting public, al
aoout the Gazette and its
owner, and all about several le
gitimate business enterprises, run
in the community, employing
each year many valuable labor
ers, and paying thousands of dol
lars each year for these valuable
services. The Times deems this
detrimental to this community,
and to enlist the voters, ;he pa
rades tc all the world the owner
ship of the Gazette as well as
the owner of those several enter
prises who employs so mauy
laborers and pays them for their
valuable labor. A profound ar
gument, knockdown in its na
ture to be sure, is that one of
those enterprises sells cheese a
fact which should not bind Mr,
Watters and then sells physic
to relieve the distresses. The
! Gazette and its owner bears no
malice toward Ihe Times or its
political bosses, but it is their
methods of politics that cut
ranks Satan's devices, aud looks
to all Leaven for relief of their
de5picab!e practices. The Ga
zette has heretofore refrained
lrom mentioning anything about
the ownership of the Times, the
favorite organ of the political
bosses, but since the owner of
w A
the Gazette has been so freely
aired to effect voters, at the hands
of the Timei and its governors,
the political bosses, the Gazette
deems it important that the
voters understand the abstract of
title and ownership of the Times,
the ring organ of political bosses.
About fifteen and more years ago,
Mr. B. F. Irvine, the genial edi
tor of the Corvallis Times, re
sided in Corvallis for several
years worked vith the republi
can partv and was understood to
be a straight, conservative repub
lican. Becoming unfortunate in
health he moved east of the
mountains remaining: several
years, finally again returning 10
Corvallis, still understood to be
a republican. He had some
liking for the newspaper busi
ness. Besides the Times, an
other democratic paper, the Ben
ton Leader, was run in Corvallis
at that time by a straight demo
crat. The Benton Leader was
in some way controlled by offi
cers of the - Oregon Pacific Rail
Road Company, having their
principal offices .in Corvallis at
that time. Mr. " Irvine "made
satisfactory terms with' the ring
of political bosses- that he would
buy the Times, and also arranged
with the officers of the Rail Road
Company that the"' would shut
up, closing the business ot the
Benton Leader, and"5 the . Times
was turned over to Mr. Irvifie by
consent of the bosses. The
Benton Leader was also turned
over to riirn by consent of the
officers of the Rail Road Compa
ny, aud since that time Mr. Ir
vine has been steadfastly work
ing, ostensibly as a democrat,
with the ring of political bosses.
The reader will bear in mind
that Mr. Irvineis to be pitied,
because he is a victim of, and
in the iron grasp of the ring of
political bosses. Such, however,
are a few links only in the chain
leading up to the present time
in the methods of the ring.
They deem it proper to attack
legitimate ownership of several
enterprises, to influence voters to
their neiarious metheds. But
time and development 6f their
bi-annual practices have fully
shown that they would emulate
Judas to influence voters to fol
low the methods of the political
bosses. It seems like the voters
will certainly rebuke these meth
ods and quietly v6te the republi
can ticket, and . help all good
people to correct vthese scandals.
PERSISTS IN DECEPTION.
The Times still persists in its
attempt to deceive the public in
to the belief that if Sheriff Bur
nett had employed a regular de
puty during his 'term of office
the coanty would have -had -to
pay the bill. The Gazette has
made the statement, and the
Times does not'and can not deny
the truth of it: "The fact is,
Mr. Burnett, has not conducted
the sheriff's office any more eco
nomically for the county, than
Mr. Rickard, his predecessor con
ducted it. If he
employs a reeular deputy, as
sheriff Rickard did, he must pay
that deputy out of his own
pocket.- The expense does not
fall on the county."
The Times calls the attention
of its readers to page 83, section
11, of the session, laws of 1895,
to prove its contention that if
sheriff Burnett" had employed a
regular deputy, the county would
have had to pay the bill. Now,
let us see what the section re
ferrel to by the Times, says.
Here it is:
"Whenever any sheriff ap
points a deputy" for some special pur
pose; the law does not previtle for a reg
ular deputy sheriff in thi3 county "it
shall he the duty of such official to re
port the same to the county court of his
county, which court shall enter in its
minutes the said report, and if the said
COURT IS OP THE OPINION THAT THE SER
VICES or any part thereof of such deputy
should be paid by the county it shall fix
the amount thereof to be paid by the
county by au order, duly entered, speci
fying the same which amount shall be
paid by the county in the same mauner
as other countv charges are paid.''
Here is endorsement of these !
statements made by the Gazette:
" It the sheritt should hud it necessary
to appoint a deputy for some special pur
pose, he is required to report that fact to
the county court, and that body uses its
descret ion in rejecting the hill for such
services or ordering it paid.
'J.I credit is due any one tor economy
in the conduct ot the shenn s on;ce, it is
due the county couit of which Mr,
Knotts is a caieful and efficient member,
for the rouit audits the bills of the
sheiiff's office."
WHAT OF IT.
The Corvallis Times, that no
tonous rine rero-an, assumes a
very funny air. when it takes to
task the owner of the Gazette,
because its owner, so says the
Times, "owns and runs the Ga
zette, does a Jaw business, con
ducts an - insurance business.
owns and runs a drug business,
conducts a creamery business,
operates a Dankine business as
well as a newspaper business, all
in Corvallis." Weil, wliat is
the Times going to do about it?
In doinff all these things the
owner of the gazette must have
to employ many to whom is paid
good wages. Does the Times 1

pay its- employees any better
wages than does the owner of the
Gazette? Possibly the owner
of the Gazette since he has
been in Corvallis has given as
much employment to a greater
number of people in this commu
nity, paying themwages than
any other man now living in
Corvallis. If such employment
and conduct of various businesses
does not suit the Times and its
ring of political bosses, ''why do
they not get their , little hammers
and stop so much business? But
what inteiest has the voters or
readers of the town papers in so
much display about soms one's
private affairs? What a marked
contrast! It takes a quarter of a
score of political bosses to run
the Times, and it seems curious
that it isiot run better with so
many valuable assistants. Pos
sibly it may be that the numer
ous heipets are net all paid ade
quate wages. If the editor of
the-Times would run more kinds
of business, possibly he might be
able to better satisfy his numer
ous assistant?, the several bosses,
and more especially his general
readers, providing he can induce
his own mind and his several bos
ses to attend strictly to their own
coucerus, and cease their contin
uous meddling in child like imi
tation int their neighbors and
others private business. It has
long been an axiom that most
men who prosper do so by indus
try and strict attention to keeping
their nasal extremities out of the
"business of others. Without any
further joking on these redicu
lous subjects raised by the Times
and its political bosses to confuse
and befog an occasional voter,
do the voters, the good, straight,
honest democrats of Benton
county want to continue to en
courage the Times and the ring
of political bosses bv voting the
democratic ticket, or will they
vote the republican ticket, all
good straight-for ward men, and
thus aid in purifying the disrepu
table politics so long practiced
on the people of Bentou county?

As socu as Mr. Furnish learned,
