H S Williams for assessor, E J O'Conner for
County surveyor, and Frank Varrellfor Coron
er are all worthy and competent for their re.
pective offices and should receive every dem
ocratic vote in the county.
Ed Davis has made a most satisfactory coun
ty recorder. Republicans as well as democrats
all admit this. Many republicans will vote for
"r.d and his majority will be phenomenal,
J J iVhitncy made a zealous, industrious
prosecuting attorney when he served iu that
capacity some years ago, and he has bst none
of his old time zeal in prosecuting criminals.
G F Kusscll is a regular rustle! and when
he takes charge of the office of county school
superintendent, which office he will be elect
ed by a good round majority, he will devote
himself to the building up ol public schools in
a practical way.
Wm Kumbaugh for county commissioner
and V E Curl for county treasurer are bot.i
competent and fit for the duties of the offices
for wl.ich they are running and we nredict far
each a big majority.
J K Weatherford and Jeff Myers candidates
for the state senate, and F C Hansard C J
Shedd and J F Henry for representatives are
all men of integrity of purpose and will faith
fully represent the people of Linn county.
They can not Le captured by the Portland
ling.
N I l'ayne for county clerk and Matt Scott
for sheriff are both competent and honest and
will be such careful and scrupulous officials as
people delight to have to attend to public affairs.
R A Miller was in the legislature when gov
ernor Pennoyer vetoed the nc n taxable bond
bill, He voted steadily at all its 'stages
against the bill and worked like a beavor to
secure a vote to sustain the veto. He is en
titled to the vote of every democrat for con
gress.

Judge Bonham has served as Judge of the
Third District and has served aUo on the su
preme beach. His personal and judicial integ
rity is not qujstioned by any man in the state,
repullicanor democrat. Without speaking
ought against Judge Bean, his opponent, we
have no hesitation in saying that it would be a
great credit to the voters of the slate to elect
Judge Bonham.
The Herald, finding Itself, since the re
publican county convention, with nothing
to stand on, seeks to vent its spleen on the
Democrat by saying that we arc throwing
dirt against Dave Thompson in this cam
palgn. This effort of that paper to vent
its spleen upon the Democrat, as a kind
of satisfaction for the very awkward atti"
tude which It r.ow occupies, Is unkind. In
the vears to come it will learn that such a
course only piovokes a scorning sir He even
from its own party friends. When the
Democrat tells how Da.'C Thompson at
tempted to get two salaries out of Holla
day's estate as receiver, when lie was en
titled to only one, quoting a decision of
the supreme court as proof of everything
we 6uid, the Jhrald calls that throwing
mud. When we tell how Dave Thompson,
in the legislature, voted against a propoI
tijn to prevent the Chinese from coming
into this country the Herald says that is
throning mud. When we tell how Dire
Thompson pns taxes on only 9171,000
when, in truth and in fact, he is worth
nearly a million and a quarter, taking our
'res oi his s,sic3sment from the assess
ment roll of Multnomah counly.tlie Herald
ca'ls that throwing mud. When we say
that Dave Thompson is reported to have
said that he would spend a hundred thotis
and dollars, if necessary, to secure his
election, basing ottr Htatcmen! ttot the v:ord
of a prominent republicans the Herald calls
'his throwing mud. The truth is the Her
ald is envious of the courage exhibited by
the Demobrat In speaking up boldly on
public matters while it seems afraid of its
own shadow, transparent and thin howev
er that shadow may be.
If it were no. for the plain, inelastic provi
sion of the constitution Mclvinley might at-
temp to place free speech cn his tariff list.

Remember that Governor rennoyer will
' peak at the court house in this city on Fridny
May 23rd at one o'clock in the afternoon,
We uuderstand that largn numbers from Scio,
Lebanon, Shedd, Tangent, and other locali
ties are making arrangements to attend. Every
farmer within reasonable distance should at
tend and hear the "friend of the people" in
their behalf.

The very biggest campaign li: of the season
is one being peddl;d out to the public in and
around Tangent to the effect that Governor
Tennoyer said in his speech at Lebanon, that
he was in favor of at cheap labor as he could
get, especially on public woils. We could go
on and truthfully say about this report that it
is one 6f the most brazen and unmitigated cam
paign lies ever set afloat in Linn county. Dm
It lliere is not an intelligent man in the ecus.
ty who is likely to believe the silly falsehood
we content ourselves by saying that the story
is a plain, patent lalseliood manufactured out
01 whole cloth by some one whose love for
truth has been extinguished ' No man ever
poke more earnestly and camliJly in behalf
of labor people than did the governor in his
Lebanon speech. This kind of campaigning
will rebound on those who carry it on, as will
be seen by the vote polled for the govern.r
June 2nd, 1 he writer of this and scores of
republicans and democrats who heard the
speech stand ready to deny this silly falsehood,
It is known also that the renullcan nariv
In delegate convention, which is supposed
to represent the sentiments of the repub
licans of the state, at the state convention
placed a plank in their platform (see phink
eight) deoaring In favor of taxing all
property not now exempt by the consti
tution. Upon this platform ther placed
iir inonipsop, woo sianus upon this plank
ms 111-atnr u.uii liny inner, ne nas ac
cepted the nomination, and If elected
stands pledged aunlnst exemption of bonds,
from taxation. I'laittdealer
1 es, the republicans say they are In
favor of taxing all property not now
exempt by law. but as the proposed bond
have no existence yet, they can not now be
exempted by law, so this plank is a mere
doublcdealtng for In: purpose of deceiv
ing. Dave Thompson voted for the non
taxable bond, and if he were elected '
wou'd approvcany such bill passed by the
legislature. Hit friends In Portland are
appealing to voters to vote for him on
the ground that he voted for, and Is still
In favor of such bonds.
David P Thompson voted against a
proposition to prevent the Chinese corn-in
to this country. Now In harmonr with
the eternal fitness of things the state com
