Hon B F Pike of Moro is out for the
republican nomination for joint repre
sentative. Mr Pike is an abb, straight
forward man, above corrupt influences,
that have been so dominant to Oregon
politics, and is one of those men who
need have no fear of hb record being
attacked on account of past affiliations.
We hope he w ill be nominated and elec
ted. Outside of the representative all
other present oounty offleiab are ready
to go before the primaries, and so far as
we know there b no opposition, and
likely to be none to the republican
party. I f the democrats are going to
put up a fight they are quiet about it
