LlON. T. T. Geer is what might be called as a good mixer, and,
■ ’ as far as public officials go, managed to keep a pretty clean
record while in office. • Statement No. 1 has of course no terrors
for him. He is only running for congressman.
But Geer ac­
knowledges that he has no sympathy with that precious morsel of
senatorial safety, Statement No. 1.
More than this, the Pendleton Tribune, one of the largest and
most widely read and far-reaching daily and weekly papers of
Oregon, is Geer’s own property and its policies are dictated by
friend Geer. This organ, strange to relate, is one of the few
that has the nerve to set the opinion of the legislature*of Oregon
as a higher authority than its creator, the people, hence is loudly
proclaiming the foolishness of Statement No. 1.
These facts being true, it proves Mr. Geer in sympathy with
and fighting through his organ for machine methods, which
should be sufficient reason for every voter of Oregon to cast a
vcXe in favor of his retirement from public life. It is not the ma­
chine but the people just now and the quicker the politicians real­
ize this the better.
