By order of the City Council sll prop- arty owners are hereby requested field, making his announcement at another town, and these two are the only ones before the Republican voters of the district. Since the district will look to Joseph for the candidate, the H 'J raid proposes to state in an editorial manner where Joseph stands at between these candi dates, and why the Joseph favorite should be nominated. The Herald asserts that Mr. Eberhard is the favorite here in Joseph aud vicin ity, where both candidates live and are known, by something like two to one. It is also a fait that not oue prom inent Republican in thli vicinity is openly opposing Etwrhard. Besides these facts, there are other reason i why he is entitled to the noin inatiou : 1st. His especial fitness for tbe posi tion, by reasou of his legislative experi ence, and his large acquaintanceship ever the state. 2nd. His knowledge cf the law, coupled with the fact that he is a deep student of legal and public affairs. Sd. His frankness with the people and his expressed willingness to trust them. 4th. His enviable record as a public official and the confidence the people have io him ; and also his reputation for integrity aDd his spotless personal character. Mr. Eberhard resided over three years at Salem, took the university law course there, and at the last legislature was chief clerk to the important com mittee of judiciary of the House. He is acknowledged by all to be among the leadiug attorneys of Wallowa county, haviug three cases on the civil docket at the last term, while his opponent had none. Ijocallv. he has been en trusted with every position he would accept, boiii school clerk, secretary ol the commercial i lu . jiutice,- mid city recorder, all of which, except the latter, came to i.iin without nay effort on Mi part and iu a way be could not decline them, lie was lant your ehictud city recorder on the law and orJer ticket, receiving 90 vote out of 130, whib hi opponent who was then, as he is now deputy prosecuting attorney, received "open town ' Old Party Bosses Against H. M. Cake Antagoniiitio to the verge of bitter ness, remnants of the old machine which once dominated Oregon politics have taken up the flgrt for the defeat of Statement No. 1 and all who favor that method. Iu Portland and the other large olties of the state, the machine crowd is cen tering its fight upon II. M. Cake, candi date for the Republican nomination tor United States senator. Mr. Cake is a firm believer in the popular election of United States senators and because of his belief in the people, has incurred the enmity of the old machine politi cians. Those who are close to the situ ation, however, believe that the ma chine fight against Mr. Cake, is the best thing that could happen for his oamnaisn. The people of Oregon expressed by their adoption of the primary law and Statement No. 1, what they thought of machine methods. The old system had brought shame and disgrace upon the state had made the City of Salem almost a Gomorrah in the way of politi cal wickedness. Periodicals and news papers of national circulation pointed to our state as one of sodden political corruption, of disgraceful scandals. It is in the hope of reviving this old method by the defeat of Statemont No. 1 and of Mr. Cake, that the machine politicians have started such a bitter crusade against this new law. Indeed it is their only hope. Under the pres ent system, they are without a job. It is impossible for one dictator to sit in bis offloe and say what shall and shall not be done by the people of Oregon. No longer is a saturnalia of bribery and corruption possible in Salem. Evidences of this hostility on the part of the "system" have been appar entlu various towns where Mr. Cake has spoken during his present itinerary Large crowds have flooked to hear him, but conspicuous by their absence, were the old-time leaders. And In this con nection it is a faot worth mentioning that most of these" ai tagonlstic politi cians are either office holders or have some claim upon those who are at pres ent in office. The people who arc rallying to Mr Cake's standard are those Ro ublicans who are intensely hytil to their party but who resent any such dictatorial methods as the old machine was wont to use. It is a foregone conclusion that State ment No. 1 will prevail In Oregon at the coming election. It is also a foregone lonclusion that Mr. CaRe, .the only real active supporter of this measure, will be elected if the Republican voters of this state do their duty and there is no room for doubt but that they will peiform that duty. , Game Laws.
