of customs of a man not satifactory to

Fulton. The Astorian editor- wanted

ing himself hoarse. And that's modern
politics.
The Eugene Register favors the
candidacy of J. M. Shelleyfor collector
of customs at Portland and says: "So
far as Senator Fulton is concerned we
know he is vory friendly to Mr.
Shelley's candidacy, but even a man in
Fulton's position cannot always do as
he would like. Portland should let
loose, etc.'.'
