: i- v "'.; : t Tim; EVE:Nra pin iitiicmif ii Hit Banker Unpopularity ' in Marion Letters f: of Disapproval."' (Journal Special 8ervlce.) : .; SALEM, April 22. The unblushing hi rrtlons of the smalt faction of Furnish partisans that there exist too dlssatlsfac of Marlon County are producing no mall amusement' among tha knowing ones In Salem. It . la not and never has been contended that the professional polltlclana of tab county would bolt the ticket put lip in accordance with their methods of political manipulation, even though they are not much pleased with ths plant Which baa been forced on them., They Iwlll awallow their medicine with the best ferae! they can muster. But It la the mass or we people, tn people wno ao not make a business of politics, who are rebelling against the money dictation of the Furnish gang, and whoa votes, will - ftrery.' effectively rebuke them on the day . Not a day passes that the leaders of the ami-Furnish movement here do not re eelv letters from Jeadlng men elLjsver the atate declaring that they will : not submit to be bandied by a small coterie of i the "politicians of Portland nor will they be scared Into the support of the nominee of that faction by the old buga- boo of party politics. The choice of the people, run their letters, win be the next Governor of Oregon, and that the choice of the people' 1 George Cbamberlatir their letters: very1 plainly indicate. The cry that because Marlon County Republicans will in hundreds of easea Vote for the Democratic nomine for GOV ernor tby thereby negative all their pre. vlous proteatatlona of belief lh the policies of that party they simply laugh at This contest, they assert,? nas nothing to do with the national policy of tha country, Its alia and object Is simply to seen re for Oregon a Governor who will be under the domination of no such ring as that one in Multnomah County which-made the nomination of Banker Furnish possl hie and turned down tha present Gov. ernor. Another matter which- has caused no Uttle' amusement is tha repeated post ponement of the visit of Banker Furnish t Salem. "Can it be," say his opponents. "that he has beard how the people of , the ' county regard his candidacy and -Is afraid to comeT" At any ratewhatever the motive for his delay It la certain that It has been unfortunate- for hi aspirations.- He was expected to arrive in Salem' today,1 but for the third time has seat word to,, his henchmen that his" visit must b again postponed and all .their- piss.' Stars' thus been rendered of no avalL " ' No better evidence of the fact that even, his supporters know that Furnlsh's case ls'aopeiess, st-Jeast In so far as Marlon County Is concerned, could be asked for than the statement of one of the old-line Republicans .who Is on the county central committee and who said openly that he well understood the rea son of the opposition to their candidate and that he himself was convinced he oould not be elected. "We know the case Is hopeless," he said,, "but we ar con vinced that some "of our men are as good as can be bad and as we will up port the county ticket we may as wall swallow the whole thing." . . The petitions which are In circulation throughout the atate for the purpose of having Governor Goer's name on the Sen atorial ticket are hailed here with pleas ure, not only as affording some promise that justice will be doho Mr.- Qeer, but also as indicative of the certain downfall of th ring of Jenifers1 who turned htm down. Every vote for Chamberlain for Governor la believed to be a stone thrown at the Scott-Matthews-Mitchell gang and the Republicans and Democrats alike of Marioto:. County neartllyT applaud. J" B.

Although the Cltlsens' ticket was nom inated in caucus and by only a few peo ple the old-time members of the non partisan movement, who successfully car ried out the Citizens' movement of two years ago, are highly pleased with the ticket There was more or lees talk on the street this morning about 'a third ticket but maj one could be found Who would vouch for it - The statement was made that there would be a Oood Government ticket, an other straight Republican ticket a Union Labor ticket and various other tickets.

The people of Portland have long endured the Ills that arise from ring rule and party political methods, but endurance has ceased to be a virtue, and the time Is now ripe for good cltlsens, however strong their party affiliations may be, to rebuke the partisan- bosses. "This I believe they will do at the gen eral election In June, for the majority th ticket will receive will be large enough to convince the political dema gogues that they have trifled too long With th people'a affairs. ; I hav been a Republican, and closely allied with the Republicans for Si years: 1 have never until two years ago cast a vote for a Democratic candidate. o matter for what office; but. today, when men of the caliber of George E.
