They would question. We were shown a letter yester day from a highly responsible guarantee company offering to guarantee satisfaction and refund oil mnnif nnul hv nurchasers of .

And if they could have 8on and Hughes who are acting as their way it is quite sure there; special agents of that company would be spoils enough to go around. I Luckily, the party paper is by no means the great palladium and official fortress the politicians im agine it is. In fact, the people have pretty generally come to re gard the petty creature at its true value, which is a trifle less than nothing. Common sense teaches this to be so, because the party organ is paid to deceive the people, to laud candidates and officials who have no right to public confidence and to abuse other men whom they have no right to condemn. In questions of officialism the party organ cannot afford to tell the truth about the public business but must color its stories to shield and to please the officials from whom its patronage comes. There are other newspapers whose pat ronage comes from the people and not from the politicians. The dif ference between them is as wide as between day and night and exactly in the same proportion as the paper grows strong in one direction does it grow weak in the other direction. The newspaper that tries to be honest, reliable, prudent and considerate, whether it is repub lican or democratic, occupies t strong position in the public con fidence, and becomes a great force to the right side. Seeing this, knowing this, the politicians, with singular blindness and folly, im agine they also can set np a graven image that the people will hasten to bow down to. However, the cut-and-dried party organ seems to be a fad that the officials must have as long as they can make the public business pay for it, so let it come and have its fling until the people get a chance to pay their respects to the combination. citizen similarly fcfEicted, ami to eivehim one is simply" ft misap propriation of public funds,'-but this is no crime, because ii occurs ilailv tinder the government as carried on at present.

From Independent, John Jackson, a prominent business man of Condon, was iu the city lnt week. It is reported that he was here spying into our camp, and it is snspi- cioned that Mr. Jackson has designs on some one of the Arlington charming young ladies. B. T. Snell came in Tuesday' from his To trie Consumers of Gilliant County: We desire to state that we are determined to reduce our large stock of goods and for the noxt 90 days will make great reductions in all Hues for cash. , By referring to yon local papers you frequently note the ad. of Interior merchant who, with cbnsplcious signs, say! "We sell at Arlington prices," Is this not evUlonce that the Arlington merchants must liad in low prices or thora would be no nd for such statesuients?

The work on the Rock creek grade is pro gressing, and in a short time the people of the south end will be greatly bene fited In the throwing open of the new thoroughfare. If thecity of Arlington wonld like to do something that will put it on the good side of the wheat haulers the op portunity presents itself now. These cold nights require a shelter for hard- worked teams, and the Independent sug gests that a lonir shed, witb a row of mangers in it, would be a much appre ciated convenience to teamsters who FINE AVINES, LIQUORS and CHOICE CIGARS, camp oere over nignt.

In 1887, when Portland's water system was owned by a private company, the water for a dwelljng with one bath and one water-closet was 13.50 per month. The water furnished at that time was muddy, nasty stuff from the Willamette river. Since that time the city has taken over the water system, and, at an enormous expense, Has brought in pure water from Bull Run, and the rate was decreased to 11.75 a month. At a recent meet ing the water committee made a further reduction of 25 cents a month, bringing the present rate down to $1.50. This is a pretty good argument in favor of munici pal ownership of public utilities itself. S. A. Thompson, a farmer of the Con don country, was in town Tuesday witb wheat, lie brought In a load of thirty sacks, which he disposed of at 42 cents. Mr. Thompson says that it requires three days for him to make the trip to Arlington and return. On an average, this wonld mean the delivery of ten sacks a day. The people of that section feel the need of a railroad. - BILLIARD and POOL TABLES. FIRST-CLASS GOODS OUR PRIDE. FRESH, COOL MILWAUKEE KEG BEER o.n Dkacoht.
