THURSDAY. MAY 1S8S.
D. F. May, candidate for County
clerk, fails to smile upon us as
broadly as of yore, since our gentle
mention of his doings in lust week's
issue. Just hold yourself easy, broth
er; before election day you will be
pleased to feel such gentle taps.
Governor Pennover is having a

bridge. Most laboring men have
had many times that amount of
work already, and will have more,
yet certain demagogues -expect -the
laboring hien to support 'an nnti
bridge ticket next Monday.
The Courier in a seeming spirit of
deliberate malice prints a gross lie
week after week like an advertise
ment, accusing Capt. J.T. A person
of being the author of a certain res
olution relative to the expulsion of
cfi., !ut;ni., I the Chinese from Oregon City. Mr.
Last fall Mr. D. FMay,now dem
ocratic nominee for clerk, wa a rank
prohibitionist. He worked that rack
et for all there was in it. Now he
largely, puts in his time orn?ment
the fronts of giu mills. After elec
tion he will probably cuss both.
The legislature to be chosen next
month will have to elect a I'nitcd
States senator to succeed Hon. J. N.
Dolphu The senate is now republi
can by a bare majority, and it is of
the utmost importance that this state
clecfa republican. This is sufficient
reason to cause republicans to be
staunch to their, ticket, thereby in
suring a solid republican delegation
from this county. ' , .,
The republican nominees for the
legislature are men of Ability, ac
customed to deal with en and af
fairs. They are qualified to repre
sent this county well. .Their influ
ence in the legislature orrtjlls of iiil
jiortance would count more than the
aggregate vottfof the delegation, am

can be relied upon for the right a

fifty years, conveys one thousand
horse power and means business.
We are fast Incoming a part of Port
landthe quicker the better for Port
land and for Oregon City.
If Mr. May wants a continuation
of his Chinese record wo are pre1
pared to give it, and will need to tell-
no lies to make it savory, seasoning

Hranr Cochran met last night
and nominated himself for Mayor
on the Anti Chinese Labor Ucfornt
Democratic -Cochran ticket, with
20 vot'S. The insincerity of this
great anti Chinese apostle is mani
fest when we assert without fear of
successful contradiction that he ) a

Cochran, Miller and Chase, job
