Two BiTBSCRiBBBS who take one paper
between them have stopped thejGAZ-ETTE
because of its fearless and truthful po
sition. For that one subscription we
have taken in twenty new ones.
Win the Uudget should go back on
their townsman, Blair, is more thra any
republican can imagine. He was their
faction's slated choioe before the conven
tion, and they secured his nomination.
The Budget speaks of the great con
tempt ftith which the Gazette is held
in Heppner. Yes, it has the hatred of
those who cannot run it, nor bulldose
its proprietor. In Heppn6r and in ex
ington and in every part of Morrow
oounty, has the Gazette a subscription
list and its fast, firm friends.
Pennoyeb's ideas of consistency is to
veto the Portland water works bill be
cause of its non taxable bond provision,
and fig n the Baker City and The Dalles
bills which did permit issues of non-tax
able bonds. In the Portland veto he de
clared non-taxablejbonds unconstitution
al. If so, why did he sign the other two
bills r
It is interesting to observe jhat the
Budget editor's Belf-respect is not dis

tries to convince his neighbors of his hon
esty by traducing honorable people. So
with the Budget. He expects the people
will believe that he is the only honest
politician in Morrow county , and all others
are dupes of bossed and rings. There
is a loud call heard, asking the Budget
to explain how it was possible to form the
Heppner ticket without a ring or some
kind of a combination to keep out the
farmers?
The Spokane Falls Review has gained
a fine point by the reoent arrangement
made by the Union Pacifio in running
its fast trains between Spokane Falls and
Pendleton. It aflords the Review an op
portunity to incretse its already large
circulation and influence in Eastern
Washington, and enable it to compete
for patronage with the Oregonian along
that lint-. The new arrangment enables
the Review to deliver its daily with its
full report of the Associated Press tele
grams, along the line earlier than can
be done by the Oregonian, but it will
find it difficult to overcome the love of
the people for the greatest and best
newspaper on the ooast, which we are
proud to say is published in our own
state of Oregon.
W'hen the Budget says that the Ga
zette is defending any other man or men
than those who composed the republican
convention and made the county ticket
for their party, be he his boss man of
Btraw or his straw ring, it deliberately,
and with malicious intent, for th.3 purpose
of deoeiving voters, lies. The Gazette's
only and sole purpose is, and has been, to
show that the Budget lies when it says
that the republican tioket is a riug
ticket. It has not only proven that it was
fairly and honorably made, but it has
shown that there is something wrong
about the Budget's tiaket, when five of
the fat offices are distributed to Heppner
men, and the four worthless ones given
to the country. "Who is the ring?" is
pertinent question. Will the Budget
please answer?
The editor of the Budget has built
man of straw, and has deluded himself
with a fanciful idea that he is a boss of
the ring whioh owns the republican party
of Morrow county, and can lead its voters
by the nose into their conventions and
compel tbem to vote just as he orders
and directs. This man of straw he calls
the republican boss, and throws all sorts
of mud and nastiness at it as if he were
annihilating the republican ticket. An
idiot may enjoy himself in such work and
yet not discover that he is only pelting
inanimate sabstanoe, just as the Budget
is now doing. The republicans of Mor
row oounty are not fools that they should
seek the supporter of a democratic ticket
to be informed that thev are led and
driven by bosses. Republicans are not
that class of men. They make their own
ticket by voting for whom they please in
the convention and voting for the ticket
made in the convention by a majority of
the delegates. Will the Budget take a
rest and let its readers know who thr
bosses are who fixed up the democratic
Heppner ticket?
THE BUDGET'S CRUSADE.
In Shakespeare's greatest delin
eation of the crafty and hypocritical
villain, his kindly model uu bosoms
himself of his true character when j
he declares his purpose to '' steal j
the livery of heaven to serve the
devil iu." Now, as then, the same
disposition exists in some men, to
essume a character wholly antagon
istic to the low and debased nature
of the man. Every high and noble
virtue is assumed, as the garb un
der which vice may, for a time,
prey upon confiding victims ; high
places in church, or other organiza
tions for good and noble purposes,
are sought for and made the shield
to hide the corrupt practices of the
villain and the fraud. High sound
ing virtues are assumed to extol
the personal goodness of the ego
tistical hypocrite, who proclaims
from the house-top, that he is holier
than his neighbor.
In the name and guise of self-
respect, what a vast deal of cruelty,
murder and persecution has the
world witnessed since its creation.
Self and self-respect invented the in
quisition. It caused persecutions
by burning its victims at the stake,
and pains and death upon the rack.
It caused the maiming and banish
inen of quakers and baptists and
the hanging of witches in New
England. It enslaved and bartered
their fellow-man for gold, and at
the present day, it robs the weak
and defenseless poor of their na
tional rights, and murders the vic
tim who dares demand justice and
his lawful pi ivileges of him who
shields himself behind the gaudy
but deceptive garb of self-respect.
it is a relic of barbarism, which is
practiced to any extent by an igno
rant and brutal community only.
The same plea of self-respect,which
would not permit others, to enjoy
equal privileges as themselves,
hunted down and persecuted the
Huguenots in i ranee, the Puritans
in England.the Covenanters in Scot
land, the Catholics in Ireland and
the Jews all over the world. Even
the savage American Indian had
his self-respect, which forbade him
to endure the proximity of the
white man. And now, at the thresh
old of the twentieth century, when
such barbarisms and persecutions
as a necessity to protect the self
respecting man from contamina
tion with those who were of another
nationality or differed in opinion has
has almost faded away, comes the
enlightened Lexington Budget, and
declares that no self-respecting
man can endure a Jew iu the leg
islative body of his state.
The Budget assumes too much
upon what it asserts. It is unfor
tunately addicted to a habit for
assumptions and assertions, which
precludes it frotn basing them upon
facts for facts and history stamp
the words, deliberate and malicious
falsehood t upon its assumptions.
r or years, J ews as well as Irish,
Germans, English, Scotch, and in
fact representatives of all enlighten
ed nations of the world, have occu
pied seats in the national and state
legislative halls, who have acquitted
themselves and the country with
honor and distinguished ability.
And, nobody's self-respect was in
jured to any extent, so far as has
ever been discovered. But- it is
senate and house of represeiitatves.
and their state legislatures, had
no self-respect like that of the ed
itor of the Budget.
When self-respect extends itself
to nationality, and would exclude
an Irishman, Englishman, Scotch
man, German or Jew, because he
is of such, and exclude others
whose religion does not conform to
his self-respect, it is bald-faced
persecution, and ought to have no
place in American politics.
When this government was found
ed upon the grand truth of univer
sal brotherhood, it was an estab
lished asylum for the oppressed of
all nations, and declared the home
of a free and independent people,
whose political rights and privi
leges were alike and equal. VVhen
the foreign-born, of whatever tribe
or nation, sought this country for
a home, and became a naturalized
citizen, h j was elevated to the same
plane, with the 6ame legal rights
as he, to the manor born.
The self-respect which is enter
tained by the. Budget, and which it
would have the people follow, is a
crusade which, if followed, would
lead to disastrous results. The same
causes led to the vicious and irre
sponsible mobs, which destroyed
the convent in Massachusetts ; the
cathedrals and churches in Phila
delphia and Louisville all the rev
suits of stimulating a crusade of
race and religious hatred in poli
tics. Every man has a right to vote
as he may think best, but no man
or press which advocates a crusade
against the nationality, or religion
of any citizen, native-born or natu
ralized, who seeks political prefer
ment, is a true friend of equal po
litical rights and universal liberty.
And all attemps to engender ani
mosity and prejudice by appeals to
national or religious pride among
the people should be received with
universal condemnation in the so
cial circle and at the ballot-box.
THE TRUTH HURTS.
Almost every resident of Morrow
county is aware that citizens of
Heppner have been the recipients
of very uncomplimentary remarks
from the Budget, during this cam
paign, and it also stands to their
credit that they have taken it all
in good part, never wincing at the
storm of abuse and splenetic sar
casms. It is only the truth that
hurts.
Last week this paper opened up
on a line that did hurt It to)d
the truth when it showed up the
ring by a comparison of two tickets,
one representing Morrow county,
the other oue a magic circle of dem
ocratic brethren iu Heppner.
.Now, our democratic friends rush
in to say, "You are hurting Hepp
ner by your course." It did not
occur to these gentlemen that j
Heppner was being hurt any, when j
the tirads of abuse fell on Hon. W.
II. Ellis, or Patterson, of this sheet, I
and every republican of the town
who chose to support the regular
republican ticket of Morrow county,
which represents tiie county fairly,
anil not a select few of the circle.
When it fell on our shoulders it
was only fun, and we took the joke
well. It was our "ox that was being
gored." But when this paper pro
ceeds to show up the results of the
clever manipulation by which
Heppner got it all and the country
nothing, why then "You ought keep
your hands off Heppner." The fact
of the matter is, that our lucid ex
planation of "the situation" in our
last issue, is nothing new to the.
people at large, for it has been pret
ty thoroughly canvassed before its
ventilation by the (Jazette.
No candidate in the local canvass
has received so much personal
abuse as Henry Blackmail, demo
cratic candidate for joint-senator.
Have our democratic friends here
made a howl on the Budget in this
instance that "They are hurting
Heppner." No.
It is a fact that no injury has beeu
done to Heppner, unless the truth
hurts. The democratic chosen cir
cle has been placed before the peo
ple in the proper light, and that is
the whyness of the whichuess of
the wherefore of the howl.
THE GOVERNOR AND
SCHOOL FUND.
THE
Governor Pennoyer,and the press
which advocate his election, claim
great credit for himself for the
increase of the school fund of the
state. The accumulation has not
been caused by any superior wis
dom or effort of Pennoyer, that he
should in every speech to the pub
lic display the large figures as ev
idence of his exclusive sagacity.
They were not produced by any act
of the governor, and are not the
result of any superior wisdom or
business ability whicL is not pos
sessed by thousands of other citi
zens of the state, who would not
pose as wonderful statesmen, upon
a growth which was natural and
self-evident when the fund was es
tablished. Governor Pennoyer is entitled to
no special credit for carefully
guarding the school funds from
peculation aud waste, for that was
a duty imposed upon him by the
public.
The significance of the increase
of the school fund is, that it shows
the growth of the state in popula
tion and taxable wealth; and has
grown to the large sum from natu
ral causes arising from the laws of
the state, which only dishonesty
could prevent; and not from other
independent efforts by the board
having it in charge.
Governor Pennoyer is entitled to
all credit for seeing that
the funds have not been
squandered, and no more. The
growth of the state has built up
the large fund, not the governor.
He and the press supporting him
are deceiving the people by assum
ing great statesmanship upon the
good showing of the school fund.
The only credit Governor Pennoyer
is entitled to claim is, that he and
his compeers did not steal any of
the fund, and he wants the publie
to know that lie feels he deserves
the laws of the state. The public
are assured that David P. Thomp
son, tlie old blacksmith, will man
age the the school fund with as
much honesty, and at the end of
his term will mal e as good a show
ing as Governor Pennoyer does
now, only the fund will be largely
increased, and if his individual
efforts will avail, David P. Thomp
son will make a showing that will
be satisfactory to the people. He
knows how to do it.
THE JOINT-SENATOR.
Holding the opinion that the next
joint-senator ought to be selected
by each party, from citizens of Morrow-
county, the Gazette recom
mended and placed before the peo
ple of the district, the name of
Henry Blackman as a gentleman
who is well fitted and qualified to
serve the people in that capacity.
It soon became evident that there
was a disposition to deprive Mor
row county of the usual courtesy
extended to counties in joint dis
tricts. The Gazette defended her
claims,presenting arguments which
were irrefutable. The republicans
in disregarding the claims of Mor
row, nomiuated a citizen of Grant
as their candidate. The democrats
recognized them by nominating
Heniy Blackman. Mr. McHaley,
of Prairie City, the republican can
didate, is said to be a good man for
the position. Mr. Blackman, if
elected, the people of Morrow know
will honestly and faithfully work
for the interests of the district, in
all matters which may be brought
to his notice. Both gentlemen
being equal iu ability, the Gazette
supports and advocates the election
of Henry Blackman, not because
he is a democrat, and opposes Mi.
McHaley, not because he is a re
publican, but for the reason that
Henry Blackman is a citizen of
Morrow county, and is the only
Morrow county candidate for joint
senator. And the Gazette recom
mends to the people of Morrow,
who are unwilling to have their
county shorn of the rights and hon
ors due it, support Henry Black
man for joint-senator. They can
support him with the assurance
that he will not fail them, when
their interest requires attention and
work, for he is a working man.

A RUSE.
The Budget last week has a long
screed about somebody it sets up
as a boss of the republican party
of Morrow county, and straightway
begins a column of abuse of him,
about something he wanted to do a
long time ago with Sheriff Howard
and Judge Mitchell, and that he
didn't succeed. What it is all for,
one is unable to perceive; uuless it
is to extol the purity and honesty
of those officers to resist tempta
tion. As a story, it does very well,
but as a model for faithful officers,
it is not a success. Whether truth
or fiction, it shows that the honest
officers failed to do their duty to
the public who had intrusted to
their charge the duty to see that
the laws were obeyed, aud bring to
justice their violators. Aud they
deserve no credit that they have
after a lapse of time reserved a
secret knowledge of what the law
designates a crime, until the pres
ent time, to bring it to the front
and work it into an electioneering
scheme.
The republicans of Morrow
county recognize no bosses or lead
ers, who make any claims or pre
tention, to control thir votes tor
candidates for nominees on their
ticket, either in their primaries or
in the county convention. They
vote for whom they choose, without
dictation from a supporter of the
democratic ticket. The editor of
the Budget's cheap cry of boss and
ring, the best stock in trade h
possesses, do not disturb the equa
nimity of an intelligent republican
voter. Suppose the story or fiction
were true; is the entire republican
party responsible for a man's indi
vidual acts ? Will the Budget pre
tend that if a horse-thief should
be a prominent actor in the making
of a democratic ticket, that the en
tire party is responsible, and should
be classed as "horse-thieves? The
Gazette thinks not. Parties are
not responsible for the private acts
of individuals. When the Budget
can satisfy the people that there is
not a ring hovering around the
ticket for which it is laboring so
earnestly to cover, its efforts may
be better appreciated by the people,
and it will avoid suspicion of its
honorable purposes.
The editor of the Gazette is conscious
that he is battling for honor, justice and
is not troubled about the contempt of
the people of Heppner or anywhere else.
The good citizens of Heppner are all
right, Mr. Budget. It is only an illusion
of your editor. Nobody's contempt, not
even the Budget's will deter the Gazette
from it3 duty to the people of Morrow,
and defend them' from the b.ise aud un
just charge of iguomuco and corruption.
But what about that Hr prmer ticket ?
Will the Budget tell Its readers who ar
ranged it so nicely for its candidates?
What business is it any way to a dem
ocrat whether the republican ticket is a
boss or ring ticket. It is a ticket which
he would not support if it was pure as
snow. The Gazette can say that there
is no boss or ring about that ticket aud
for proof refers its readers to the ticket
at the head of its columns, and see how
eyery part of the county is represented.
The Budget is fearful that its read
would see boss, and ring iu the ticket at
the head of its i columns t H Unpublished
Tt would not look well to see county
judge, clerk, treasurer, sheriff and sur
veyor all citizens of Heppner. Has the
Budget found out who made that tioket,
and how? Where were the farmers that
they did not get a share of the fat
places ?
No one knows better tban the editor
of the Budget, tliafc no oue man can
oontrol and run the republicans of
Morrow county, because his experience
has proved that the effort of the Budget
editor to run aud control the primary
election of delegates from Lexington
preeiDot resulted iu his own overwhelm
ing defeat; he receiving one vote for
delegate to the county convention as the
extent of the recognition, by the republi
cans of that precinct of the confidence
reposed in him. And it looks as if they
judged well and weighed his political
honor in a balance and found it wanting.
The democratic Heppuer ticket suits
him better than the republican oounty
ticket. He has gone to his place. He
took to the Heppner ticket as naturally
as a duck takes water.

; COMBINE.
i Editor Gazette:
With your pt-rroission I -,vilt 's and up
aud say m) j-iece" iu regard to tn p"hr
icai pns;t;uM of Morrow conoiy at this
time. To a person not j-rtjsciit ;4 the
republican county convention, ii '.nu:d
appear from re-tdin the Budget that
twenty-live or thirty out of ine fortv one
delegates iu that convention were hal
tered and led up to vote for the candi
dates who were to be chosen bv that
body.
Now before convention- we all hjive
our preference as to whom we wish lo
see nominated. After convention it is
our duty as republican and democrats
to acquiesce in tlie chok-e of those to
whom we gavo the nominating power.
We work before convention for thowe of
our choice and work sometimes very
hard too; and even after we do not suc
ceed we feel the defeat s'trely, yet it is
the duty of every true party man to abide
the result. But let us look at the work
that was done before the convention.
The Budget says the world was almost
moved to defeat Howard, Andrews and
Judge Mitchell. As to Mitchell I did
not kuo ft he was before he republican
convention, and if he was not aud is a
democrat, a person woold naturally sup
pose republicans would work to defeat
him. Now, as to Howard and Andrews,
Will the Budget pretend to say they did
not do their. best and their very best tor,
to secure their nomination, which wab
all right so far as they i-sed laudable ef
forts. But were their efforts above
criticism? I think not.
iu the firHt place when A. Andrews,
the present nominee went to his nephew
and told him he would be a candidate
before the convention for sheriff, was it
"first class" for Clarence to say to his
old uncle, "Why iu b 1 diuu't von come
to me, by G d. You ought to have
come aud told me, etc. Again, a few
days after, a promiuent Heppner citizen
approached A. Andrews and told him he
had better withdraw his name aud not
allow it to come before the convention, if
he (A. Annrews) did not withdraw thev
would defeat him, or if any other per
sons than Tom Howard aud Clarenoe
Andrews were nonmated, they would de
fentthem. And when asked "How?" thev
said they would do so by electing demo
ci ats.
Well, the convention met and made
the nominations and the threats made
are now being carrisd out to the letter.
While Tom Howard and Clarence
Andrews made good officers and served
the people well and faithfully, it was
nothiug more than the people expected,
nay even demanded of them when they
elected them. They were both faithful
and efficient officers and not a word
would I, for oue. say that would be any
thing but respectful, yet I have the
right to criticise their mode of election
eering for nomination. It showed too
much of bulldozing. Their faithfulness
did not give them a third term lease to
their ollices.
Now as to the "bosses" the Budget
speaks of. There was probably as much
"bossing" done by one faction as by the
other, and that is not saying more than
ought to be said.
Again the Budget says, "There may
be good men on the republican tioket,
etc." Does this sage writer pretend to
say, or can he or any other man in Mor
row county Bay that the republican can
didates are any other than the best from
among Morrow county's citizens? If so,
let him rise up and speak out if each aud
every candidate on the republican ticket
is not the equai of the opposiug candi
date on the democratic ticket. Let Mr.
Budget point him out. The republican
convention did much more for the peo
ple than the democratic convention in
giving the best ollices, (as far as pay is
concerned) to the farmers. Examine
the two tickets carefully and see where
the candidates live, their occupation,
etc., aud then we are willing to let the
people say which party has shown the
most favors to the bnnebgrasser.
Now, while I wish to enst no reflec
tions upon anyone, I have tried to point
out a few mistakes the Budget is mak
ing, aud em willing to abide the decision
of the people the 2d day of June.
Again, the personal attacks of the Bud
get on Henry Blackman are uncalled for.
While I do not expect to vote for Black
.nian, I am willing to accord to liim the

A. C. Pettys, republican nominee for
representative of Morrow county, was
born Ai g. 8. 1836 in Steuben county,
N. Y. He moved ro Michigan with his
parents at an early nge, and in 1853
started across ihe plains with his mother
and younger brothers and sisters, bis
father having died when he was 13
years of age. The trip across "the
great American desert," as it was then
called, was oue of peril and many hard
ships. Hostile redskins were oontinu ally
on the alert, and during the sixteen
months trip many lost their lives seeking
the golden west, although the company
of which Mr. Pettys was a member, were
quite fortunate. lie settled at Salem
Or., July 12 'oi, and moved to Eastern
Oregon in 1870. The first mail to the
section now known as Morrow oounty
was carried by Mr. Pettys from the
John Dav at his own expense. After
ward it was carried by subscription
made up by the neighbors. He has
since resided at his home on Willow
creek, six miles below Lexington. Mr.
Pettys sterling qualities recommend
him a suitable man to represent
Morrow county in the next legislature.

Most women naturally look forward to
matrimony as their proper sphere in life, but
they should constantly bear in mind that a
fair, rosy face, bright eyes, and a healthy,
well-developed form, are the best passports
to a happy marriag-e. All those wasting- dis
orders, weaknesses, and functional irregulari
ties peculiar to their sex, destroy beauty
and attractiveness and make life miserable.
An unfaiUnff specific for these maladies is to
be found iu Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
It is the only medicine for women, sold by
druggists, under a positive guarantee
from the manufacturers, that it will givm
satisfaction in every case, or money will be re
funded. This guarantee has been printed on
the bottle-wrappers, and faithfully carried
out for many years. $1.00 per Bottle, or Six
Bottles for $5.00.
