WEDNESDAY, APRIL 15, 1908.
Next Frida}’, April 17th, is the
tl>ty set for the diatirect primary elec
tion. This mode of nominating can.
ili lates was adopted for the of
purpose eliminating all possibil­
ity of “ putting up jobs’’ in the
< loosing of candidates. Every
vjler who possibly can should
attend this election and do his full
duty toward seeing to it that bis
party puts up good clean candidates.
In a general way this election is of
more importance than the general
election. If both parties get out
good men, it matters little which is
successful, and under the present
system, your vote counts, as the vote
is direct for the candidate, and not
for a delegato to go and missepre-
sent you at a purchased convention.
Nither can a man “ cross the line’,
nhd take part in the primary of the
oppoBit party and use his influence
in getting a man nominated who
would be easy for hin own party
oondidate to defeat. Come out and
do your full duty.
There was a meeting of the Dem
ocratic centrist cominitee in this city
Monday, at which considerable busi­
ness was tjansacted making ready
for the coming campaign. For U
g. senator-they will vote for Geo.E.
Chamberlain; for representative in
congress, first district, J. J. Whit­
ney; for joint senator for Coos and
Curry counties, Hugh McLean.
There will be a meeting of the com­
mitteemen in Coquille April 22 for
the purpose of forming a permanent
organization.

Robert Goetz, one of the Repub­
lican aspirants for the nomination
for School Superintendent,has been
a successful teacher of the county
for a number of years,
He was
born in Coquille in 1881, but his
parents soon moved to Cal., and
the first ten years of his life were
spent, there and in Massachusetts,
after which they moved to Bandon.
Mr. Goetz is a graduate of the nor­
mal course of Philomath College
and he has since completed a two
years’ course in law. He was prin­
cipal of the grammar school at Ori­
ent, Oregon, and principal of the
Canyon City public schools, dur­
ing which time he had charge of a
full four years’ High School.
The Educational League met at
the usual hour on Friday last, with
the president, Mrs. Chase, in the
chair.
Edith Perrott, Leanna Curry and
Jessie Goodman, each favorod the
League with a recitation.
The day being Arbor Day the ad
dress upon the subject,” Beautify­
ing the School Grounds,” by J. J
Stanley seemed very appropriate in
deed.
He told of the tree planting done
by his pupils, in a certain school
district in Kansas somo twenty
years ago and to show that their
efforts had been crowded with suc­
cess, read from a reply to his letter
of inquiry to the County Supt. of
that place. Tho results were very
gratifying indeed.
“ A sad mistako is made,” said he
when every vestige of tree and shrub
is cleared away iu preparing grouns
for a school campus.”

Statem ent.
To my fellow Republicans of
Coos. Curry and Douglas counties:
The duties of the office I have
had the honor to hold for nearly
twelve years (not sixteen as is some
time erroneously stated), prevent
me from making a personal cam­
paign for renomination.
In fact,
my record as a public prosecutor,
should make such a campaign un­
necessary.
Also in this connection, I desire
to refute the statement sometimes
made that I am rich.
I am sorry
that I am not. If I were worth one-
third the sum that some of those
opposed to me say 1 am, I would
gladly retire.
My propert) con­
sists of my home residence and my
farm which I have owned for thir­
teen years.
For nearly eleven years, I bad the
largest district in Oregon.
This
district was composed of Benton
Coos, Curry, Douglas, Lane and
Lincoln counties. For nearly eleven
years I devoted my entire time
the duties of my office, workio
hard and conscientiously and doing
all in my power to uphold the law
and punish crime and have en
deavored at all times to give a full
measure of labor for my salary,
The last legislature recognized
the fact that six counties afforded
more work than one public prose
cutor should be required to do and
divide the six counties, constituting
the second Judicial District into
two Prosecuting Attorney Districts
The office of Prosecuting Attor
ney is judicial in its nature and
informed men know that experience
counts for much in such an office.
Under the present laws of Oregon
the Prosecuting Attorney has the
powor, and it often becomes bis
duty to sit as a grand jury and
file informations in the Circuit
Court, and place men upon trial for
their liberties or their lives, without
the aid of a grand jury. This is an
extraordinary power and demands
the best judgement that experience
and knowledge can bring such an
officer. I have been tried and my
record as a public prosecutor has
been written in the court journals
of six counties.
My friends have led me to believe
that I should have the honor
serving for oue fnll term in the
present smaller district.
I ask
your votes, if you think I mer
them,
Very respectfully,
G eorge M. B rown .

Rheumatic Pains Relieved,
Mr. Thos. Stenton, postmaster of
Pontypool, Out., writes: “ For the
past eight years I suffered from
rheumatic pains, and during that
time I used many different lini­
ments and remedies for the cure of
rheumatism. Last summer I pro­
cured a bottle of Chamberlain’s
Pain Balm and got more relief from
it than anything I ever used, and
cheerfully recommend this liniment
to all sufferers from rheumatic
pains.” For sale by R. 8. Knowlton,
