A SCARECROW.
The Gazette objects to threshing over
old straw, when the Jast grain of wheat
has been garnered. It is not sensible
nor is it a paying proposition.
That is what many newspapers of the
second district are now doing. The
Portland Telegram opened up the ball,
then the little, one-horse papers began to
bawl, hut all they have suid or done has
not changed the opinion of the people on
the candidacy of W. 1$. Ellis, that he
will he elected June Gth next.
There are accusations that he is this,
that or the other thing, but where in the
name of common sense is their argu
ment? Not one single paper has oliered
the least particle of solid substance to
buck up its assertions, and bare state
ments without some reasonable sem
blance of backing, full fiat. The Kecord,
of Heppner, is singing the same "song of
sixpenoe" that was so popular with the
Telegruin a few weeks ago. These "ed-
itorials" are fearfully and wondorfully
made, being fathered by a democrat and
built up by a good republican. The re
publican is a graceful writer on any sub'
ject, und is worthy of his hire. But he,
no doubt, prefers to rehash old, wornout
claptrap rather than invent any new
"thunder," as it is easier and not at all
dangerous.
Our neighbor causes the subject of
tlio Cascade locks to bo handled from
the time Granny Slater begged for a six
bit appropriation, up to the present time,
and it would appear that the Record con
sidered the Columbia river about (ill of
the river Biid harbor work of the United
States. The Oregon senators and rep
resentative are assailed, (on suspicion)
of keeping the river blookaded in the in
terests of monopoly, and then moans,
"vote for Slater." If this campaign had
occurred one year ago, there would have
been a shower of chestnuts in the shape
of "billion dollur congress," und then a
sharp injunction, "vote for Slater." But
the present session having appropriated
$23,000,000 more than the first half of the
"billion dollar congress," not including
the very needful amount for river and
harbors, it is not good policy to say any
thing. Tbo whole thing is a move to
call uttention frc m Sluter's acknowledg
ed stuud on the wool question. It is a
political ruse. Tho Iteoord well knows
that there was never a more fuithful eor
vant of the people in the lower bouse
than Hermann, and with Ellis to SHsist
him, there would be a strong delegation
in the matter of un open river, It
knows better than all that there is not
nil iatu of reason in its opposition to El
lis, but us an organ, it must fall into
line. It weurs the collar, pure nnd nn
duliled. It does not own its own soul.
Tbereforo it must rant about what
it does not offer, nor can offer tho least
pruof. This is but n scuroorow to ut
tract the attention of the voters from the
result of the wool industry in Eastern
Oregon, should our congress be made up
of such men as Granny Slater. Why
don't its boss get the hired mun to show
the munificent results of free wool but
with a duly on imported goods? Why
don't il stop threshing over "old straw"
and explain what a muguilioeut showing
our sheepmen could make by Boiling
their wool in Boston for 7 oeuta per
pound, less commissions and freight,
with all woolen clothing at the same old
price? That is Slater's plan, and why
not strike something new? King ub up
o good, lively change, und stop chewing
the same old cud.
It ooneludes with "It will he well for
the voters of Eastern Oregon to look af
ter tlioir own interests and not be ilo
ceivod by false signs or misled by wolves
in sheep's clothing." You can rest as
sured that the voters will remember that.
Your free wool candidate is the wolf,
masquerading as the sheepman's .friond.
'Ihut was well said. Keep it up. The
sheepmen know that you aro not free to

REASONS WHY
Dr. Price's Crcain Baking Powder
Is The Best.
Firstly. It is the oldest Cream of Tartar Baking Powder
in the world, and has stood the test of 40 years.
Secondly. Its makers have never succumbed to the
temptation to introduce ammonia or alum in their goods, for
the purpose of cheapening the cost.
Thirdly. It is made from the purest Cream of Tartar,
refined in the immense plant at Jersey City controlled by this
company, by patented processes used by no other refiner.
Fourthly. The governments of the United States and
Canada have endorsed Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder after
thorough examination, as have also the heads of our great
universities, prominent physicians, boards of health and the
public. It is used in the United States Army and Xavy and
in the cuisines of the most select clubs, hotels and private
families.
Fifthly. It is just what it is represented to be, viz: a
pure Cream of Tartar powder and can stand on its record
without any bolstering up by means of fraudulent certificates,
or resorting to any other tricks practised sometimes success
fully by other makers of so-called "absolutely pure" powders.

"It is a tax, and I'll prove it to you in a
sentence. Suppose I have 1000 bushels

ica I must pay 15 cents per bushel, or
$150 in all upon my 1000 bushels, before
I am permitted to oross the line with my
barley, and when I do cross the line with
it how muoh do I get for it? Why, I get
American price, the same that American
barloy is selling for ovor there. I don't
add to that price the 15 cents per bushel
that I paid at the custom house. There

IN TDK INTEREST OF TAXPAYERS.
Editor of the Gazette:
I urn a fanner, and take the oounty
papers. As a render of the Guzctto, I
have something to say to tho voters,
which I hope you will publish.
It is to the interest of taxpayers to
have men in office who will handle the
reins with the idea thiit the taxpayers
are the men w ho keep the mnchiuery in
motion. That is the business view of it,
and I am aguiust extravagance. I have
noticed the ollioial acts of W. II. Wil
son, prosecuting attorney, during the
past two years nnd 11111 convinced that he
has done his duty. From what I cnu
learn ho bus saved this county many a
dollur, I generally vote for the man
more than party, uud will be found sup
porting Wilsou on election day. A good
many of my friends who are as strong
people's party men ub myself will do the
same. Our taxes should be lowered in
stead of being raised. The farmer is the
man who will soon pay the most of the
taxes, uud if be don't look out for his
best interests, who will do it for him?

GKOIKiB WATK1NS.
Cai.itiilate nir ,Im)ne on the Republican Ticket-Has
Served the District Faithfully in
tlmt PoHitiuu One Term.
Judge George Watkine, of The Dulles,
republican nominee for judge of the sev.
I enth judicial distriot, was born in the
! state of Ohio in the year 1854, but when
very small moved with his parents to
Nebraska, who in 1SG2 took up their march
westward with an ox team, settling in
the Willamette valley near Silverton,
Marion county. In 'b'8 the family moved
to Wasoo county, young George accom
panying them, where they have since re
sided, the elder Mr. Watkins follow
ing the occupation of a farmer.
In 187G George began the study of luw
with Col. W. H. Gates, of The Dalles.
Prior to this he bad followed the occupa
tion of a farmer. Iu 1880 he was admit
ted nnd oommenced to practice at The
Dalles in partnership with A. S. Bennett.
In 1832 or 1883, Mr. Bennett was appoint
ed circuit judge, and Mr. Watkins then
went into partnership with J. II. Bird,
remaining with him till 188G when he
wus appointed judge of the seventh judi
cial district. In 1888 he was chosen state
senator from Wasco county, introducing
and with the assistanceof others, passing
the bill providing for the portage road
now in operation at the Cascades, and
inasmuch as this is proyiug such a boon
to shippers, praotically opening the river
to Celilo, Mr. Watkins' services in this
particular should be, and no doubt are,
appreciated He very consistently takes
pride in this piece of work.
Since Judge Watkins left the benoh he
has been a member of the law firm of
Dufur, Watkins AMcnefee, of The Dulles,
which has a large practice.
His early life was fraught with obsta
cles, apparently unsnrmonntable, but
with a steady and fixed purpose in view,
lie passed from a farmer boy to the bench
and then to the state senate. His public
acts require no explanation, for they are
highly credituble; his private life is uu
spotted and unblemished. Voters, you
can eland by Geo. Watkins with a olean
conscience.
