A few of the Itrpnlilii.au leaders
in I he present campaign ate turning
out that they did a very poor day's
work when they turned down
influential workers in every pre
cinct in Polk county. The average
voter does not care to follow the
leadership of a few gtlf-eone titut d
bosses who have tricked and traded
the Republican ticket for years,
and who are ready at this minute
to trade off sonic of the best men
on the' Republican ticket in order
lo carry out their Bullish ends. The
pleading and begging of men who
knifed the head of the ticket two
years ago and Who care absolutely
nothing for the pr nciples of the
Republican parly will not accom
plish much this year. The voters
will no longer support a man who
is willing to trade every other man
on the ticket to save his own bide.
When a few of these mugwumps
are buried too deep for resurrection,
we will have some straight Re
publicanism in Polk county again.
If the Portland Journal could
hear the sentiment of the people of
Polk county concerning that paper's
bitter and unreasonable attacks
upon Hon. Ringer Hermann, its
publishers would be forced to con
clude that there is at least one
county in the First District where
such campaign methods are not
indorsed. It is altogether probable
that the existing feeling here ex
lends to every county in the
district. It is a noticeable fact that
the wail of the Journal finds no
echo except in the columns of one
or two rabidly partisan newspapers
in Western Oregon. .Neither Re
publicans nor Democrats in the
First District believe the slanderous
tales that are being circulated
against Mr. Hermann, and the
people will show their disapproval
of the Portland paper's mud-clinging
and abuse by re-electing their
present Congressman by a majority
of 10,000 votes.
C. D. SIMPSON IS DEAD
VEATCH THE KICKER.
Bob Veatch, who is running (or
rather walking, as they say in Ger
many, or standing, as they say in
England) for Congress on the Dem
ocratic ticket, is a good man in his
way and an accommodating neigh-
.Jiiio I9 home town. But if the
moon should turn to green cheese
and he should be elected to Con
gress from the First district, he
would be a nuisance there. He
would be a detriment to the people
ho represented, or misrepresented,
lie would do very much more harm
than good. Bob Veatch was bom
in the wrong time of the moon.
He is a natural kicker.
If Mr. Veatch should be elected
to Congress, it would pay the people
of this district, and pay them big,
to make up the money and give
him twice the salary he would re
ceive from the government, to stay
at home, or to go off some where
and hide himself. Ve want things
from Congress. ' We need a great
many things. And we cannot
afford to send a man back there to
simply find fault and paint the
dark side and exhibit a chronic
case of the dyspepsia. Congress
has troubles enough already, with
out borrowing any from the Firtt
Oregon district. Salem Statesman.
The promoteis of the Dallas
Salem railroad ask a bonus of
$15,000 from the business men of
Salem. They will he lucky if they
get 15 cents unless the citizens o
the Capital City show more enter
prise than they have shown in the
past. The Ohskkvkh is of the
opinion that the road will never be
built, if Salem is to be depended
j upon lo furnish any considerable
I amount of money to help build it.
Most of the big undertakings over in
that town start with talk and end
in talk.

Shipment of Rainbow Trout.
County Commissioner John Teal
received word from Washington,
D. C, this week that a shipment of
31)00 rainbow trout will he forwarded
to him ut once to stock his new pond
at his mountain home oltove Falls
City. Mr. Ten I says the Eastern brook
trout sent him last. August are thriv
ing finely and making rapid growth.
Eight thousand of these trout were
sent out from the Government hatch
ery, and were placed in a pond pre
pared for them on Mr. Teal's ranch.
The lish averaged one inch in length
when sent out from the hatchery, and
were shipped in large cans. Mr. Teal
says that most of these trout are now
fully six inches long ami growing
rapidly.
Dallas is enjoying an era of
prosperity and substantial growth
unprecedented in her history. New
buildings are going up all over
town, property owners are im
proving and beautifying their
premises, and more important
public improvements are under
way than ever before. The hotels
are crowded with guests, and new
people are arriving eveiy day to
make their homes lure. Merchants,
without a single exception, report
trade lively and growing better all
the time. The spirit of progress is
in the air, and the year 11)0-1
promises to be a record breaker in
the number of buildings erected
and the consequent increase in
population. Dallas has put nside
her village ways ami is rapidly
taking on a city appearance.

Funeral at ftlonmoulh on Monday
Attended by Hundreds of
Sorrowing Friends.
Claud" I). Simpson died of typhoid
fever at bis home in Monmouth, Satur
day night. Ho had been in failing
health ever since suffering an attack
of the same disease several weeks ago,
and while it was known that his con
dition was serious, tho news of his
death came as a shock and surprise to
his friends and relatives. After par
tially recovering from the first attack
of fever, he resigned his position as
teacher in the Independence public
schools and went out to tho logging
camp of his relatives on the head
wa ers of Pedne creek, hoping that the
mountain air would restore him to
health and strength. The change of
climate did not have the desired effect,
aud he returned to Monmouth about
ten days ago aud placed himself un
der the care of a physician. He con
tinued to sink rapidly, and death end
ed his suffering on Saturday night.
Dee Simpson was a son of Mr. and
Mrs. Reuben Simpson, well known
pioneers of the Luckiamute country,
and was one of the most popular
young men in Polk county. He was
atnoiti ous to make himself a userui
man, and no work was too hard for
him to undertake where the object
meant advancement. While teaching,
in tho Independence school, he carried
on his studies in the Normal School
at Monmouth, and was graduated
from the latter institution with high
honors. It is believed by many of his
friends that the breakingof his health
was caused by long hours of study
and overwork.
He took an active interest in lodge
work, and was a member of the Odd
Fellows and Woodmen of the World.
He was Noble Grand of Valley Lodge,
No. 42, I. O. O. F.,of Independence, ut
the time of his death. He was a Dem
ocrat in polities, and was often honor
ed by his party by being sent as a del
egate to tho county convention. Two
years ago he was nominated for
County Clerk and made a cleau and
honorable campaign for that office.
He was defeated in the election by his
Republican opponent, but came out of
the contest with clean hands and with
the respect of all citzens.
As a school teacher he enjoyed the
couildeuce of the parents, and was
loved by the children. The pupils of
his room iu tho Independence school
attended his funeral in a body, and
their grief at the loss of their teacher
and friend was a scene never to be
forgotten. As the little people marched
by the casket, crying as if their hearts
would break, strong men turned away
to hide the tears that could not be re
strained. The lloral offerings of the
Normal School faculty, students and
friends were numerous and beautiful
beyond description, ami banked about
and upon the casket almost covered it
from view. The burial rites were
witnessed by a large concourse
of friends.
In the death of Dee Simpson, Polk
county loses one of her best young
men one who would have written his
name high as a useful and honorable
citizen had he lived. Cut down
in tho beginning of a bright and
promising career, his early demise
til ings forcibly to all minds tho truth
of the saying that "Death loves a
shining mark." His life was a lite
example of nil that is best in young
American manhood.
