Wesley Uoodin for county Jud He waa the choice of the repub- lirans at the primary election, and the party should aee that he ia elected. for congress from thla district, la alto entitled to your vote. Those who beard him at the court house in thla city a couple of weeka ago, know that he ia a man fully capable of watching Oregon interest in the halls of congress. Ha represents everything a true republican deairea and should be elected by an overwhelming majority. " iraiidmV Wood will have to hurry if ahe catches up with the old lady in Clinton, Ia., who is said to be 14J years old, ami the oldest iersoa living. A lcs Moines dispatch of recent date savs: ''The oldest woman in Iowa, and poa Hi hly in the world, is Miss Abbie IVr- ham, a Clinton, Ia., woman, who has j'K-t celebrated her 140th birthday. The blood of three races runs in her veins and this ia held responsible for the ten' ni'ity with which she clings to life. Miss 1 Villain has d'icuments to prove her claim to ago and telN how aa a girl of 18 tihe saw Washington's troops pass her miner s rutnii. Hie woman is bent and feeble, an I hur memory is uncertain. .She has smoked incessantly since she waft a girl of 14 and declares that it has prolonged her life." Mrs. Wood, who lives on First street in this city, celebrated her ll'Jth birth' day the IMth. Shu has been considered the oldest woman living, b:it this Iowa maiden goes her 21 years better. Tha democrats are claiming that there ia no politics In this campaign. It is urged that Gov. Chamberlain has made a good governor; that Senator Gearin has mals a good senator, and that Cbas. Galloway would make a good congress man, therefore, republicans should as sist them to elect these men. But ought republicans to be influenced by these arguments? The Independent believes that the republican nominees are just as well, if not better, qualified to fill tb positions, and will make jut aa good, if uot better, officers than the democrats above named. If a man la a republican he Is a republican because he believes in republican principles, and because he knows that when ever those principles have been applied to the practical man igement of public affairs in the last forty years, that the country has been more prosperous and conditions have been mors satisfactory than when the democratic party controlled public af fairs. It fa useless to urge that there are no politics in this election, when we are voting for men to fill the highest politi cal offices within the gift of the people of the state There are politics in the office of United States senator, congress man and governor. In fact, The Inde pendent believes that there are politics publican senators and republican con gressmen ws must maintain our party organization, which can only be done by sleeting republicans to all otfices. This srgument that there are no politics In this slection Is made by democrats ex clusively for the republicans. The dem ocratic organisations of thla state and tha democratic papers are supporting Gearin, Galloway and Chamberlain be cause they know ,that tbey are demo crats, and because they know if they are elected they will promote and advance the Interests of their party.

Theie women who are flooding the mails with tills chdee bit of the photographer's art, will be the very first ones to put on "Politics cut no figure in the present! campaign, especially with county af fairs," says the "independent-demo pop" candidates who niUHt have republican votes if they land the offices they so much desire. Things were different two years ago. At that time J. W. Seweli was the sheriff of Washington county, mid throwing the patronage of I that office to his democratic friends, a I right he had, and to which no one ob jected. This is simply mentioned to tiiiow tliut lie was living up to his prin ciples us a democrat. Along about that time the Guston mill property was in litigation and there was a sheriff's sale to be publinhed. S. II. Huston and Ben- t ui Bowman were attorneys for the UuHton mill people and they asked Mr. Seweli if he would not have the sheriff's notice publiched in The Hillsboro In.le- pendent, and this request was alio made by the mill folks. The editor ol this paper went to Mr. Sewell and asked he intended to comply with the wishes of the attorneys in the case and the par- ti'.s most interested, and waa told with out hesitation that he would not. He said he was a democrat, and the notice would be published in a democratic paper, and it was. And now this same Sewell is going about the county asking republi cans to vote for him for countv indue. Mr. Sewell ought not to get a republican Vole in asliington countv. lie waa democratic ollice holder in tha court houae for four years, by the grace of the j republican party, and four years at the public teat ought to satisfy him. Be sides, he should not ask favors of repub licans when he is unwilling to grant any I to them. If he can be elected by demo cratic ballots, all right, but he has no right to ask republicans to go back on candidute of their own choice to vote for him. Volt- fk 1 -aaeasV. Hiciai Ballot for X MK X BETWEEN THE fs J QTATF I ltUt The Crescent theatre contained be tween 000 and 700 people last Monday evening, to welcome Hon. James Withy combe, the next governor of Oregon, and to listen to short speeches on the pres ent political issues by Hon. II. M. Cake, lion. II. V. Gates and Hon. 8. B. Hus tbu. Mr. Withycombe is not a brilliant platform orator, but what he says has tho right ring and can be readily under stood. He told his hearers what they could exju-ct if elected governor, how he stood on many important issues, and ex plained how the present governor had saved" so much money for the taxpay ers. Ir. Withyconibe's remarks were well received and at the close of the meeting, many of his old friends and for iniT neighbors gathered around him, ' gave him the hand of welcome and prom ises of their support next Monday. The doctor lived in Washington county for many years and still owns a splendid farm adjoining this city. He is a man of sterling integrity, his evsry-day life an open liook, his character is with out blemish, and Washington county will roll up a go.! majority for him. The speeches by the other gentleman mimed above were to the effect that in or.ler to maintain Presideut Roosevelt in Ins tight against trusts and monopo lies, republicans must endorse his policy bv sending republican aenatois and con gressmen to Washington. They advised republicans to vote the ticket strsight, from top to bottom, state ami county, and proclaim to the other states that Oregon was not only republican In name, but in reality. The Withycomlng Trio sang a number of songs which were re ceived with loud applause, and Miss Maud Hiannon, of Forest Grove, sang two selections which were appreciated by the large gathering. The music by the 1 111 hIhito band was, as usual, one of the pleasing feature. The meeting was in'everyjw ay a success and added enthusi asm, loyalty and patriotism to the cause of true republicanism. Next Monday is election day and the prospects for a republican victory all over Oregon are encouraging. The election of lr. James Withycombe ia conceded without a doubt. It has now simmers, down to only a question of msjority, and we h"i that Washington county will give him the news Tuesday that the friends of his old home have remember e 1 him by giving him the largest major it y ever received by a candidate for gov-, eruor.

In national issues the administration has taken advanced grounds. The rights of the people are near to the heart of President Roosevelt. It is false that outside of the republi can party can Roosevelt hope for the ac compiishment of those great and good purposes which dominate his adminis tratiou. Therefore, a vote for the re publican ticket here Is an indorsement of the administration and the voters' op portunity to make the people's interest paramount. ine ouruinu i i n., ! ,.,;....., ,.i ,... mmp waa nuried into the street, as soon .,i,.t tu i n i...... as possible and th. burning fluid upon Lj on tneir ..atute U)okg . jirei.t Hilt nn l . .-(nbl.. . ...

The democratic attack upon Withy comoe mai ne was Dorn abroad is an attack upon a largo part of this citizen ship which will be discountenanced by true citizens, both native and foreign born. Falling in every other method of checking the increasing popularity of the republican nominee for governor, democratic desperation turned to this petty plan, which has so signally failed. According to the democratic advertis ing bureaus, "nobody works but father" J the governor has done the whole thing. Space prevents analysis in detail of the measures he touches, but the governor's part in the enactment of the lcginlation during his administration was necessar ily small. How could it be otherwise? As to his vetoes, tiie list will show that many of them were based upon personal and partisan motives and are a source of weakness rather than strength to the state. Home democrats expect that the re publican vote will be light and in conse quence democratic schemes may again be put through.
