some of tbo democratic candidates. He
is sly, but those who know him can see
through this trick.
J. C. Thomson, democratic nominee
for representative from Morrow county,
was bom in Pennsylvania in 1H47, und
has resided in Virginia, Iowa and Mis
souri. 1' roin the latter state lie drove a
mule team across the plains to Oregon

and highly recommended by mil who
know him. If elected ho will consci

THEIR DEFENSE IS DECEPTION.
Kvidently tbe regular editorial writer
of tbe Gazette took a rest last week, turn
ing over bis space to at least three
other writers of acknowledged capacity,
whose work is easily recognfeed in this
instance. But these gentlemen, w ho thus
prostitute their talents in the service of
a weak cause, use their ability not to
express their real thoughts but to avoid
so doing; for, lacking the long and evil
career of their master, they are not yet
so calloused but that they can occasion
ally bear tbe voice of conscience. While
the general contempt w hich is felt for
them on account of their present posi
tion and surroundings is well merited,
yet to a certain extent they are deserv
ing of pity. They are to be pitied be
cause they have allowed themselves to
he drawn into such a predicament.
Yearning for public office, their ambi
tion became a convenient leading-string
by which the ringmaster conducted them
so far that they now find it no easy
matter to retrace their steps, and must
perforce brazen it out, to tbe end of this
campaign at least. Thus enlisted on the
side of the ring, if not now actually ini
tiated into probationary membership,
these gentlemen fill three long columns
of the Gazette with pompous verbiage
directed at the audacity of the little
IIcdokt in opposing the manner in
which the ring anil its satellites would
use the republican party and the inde
pendent voters of the county in the
present campaign. Probably this week
still others will join the new editorial
staff and add more rhetorical circumlo
cution to tbo mass, And yet the Bidoet
is in no way abashed by tbe weight of
wisdom broiightagainst it; neither is its
solitary scribbler flattered by tbe attacks
of so much talent; but the reader's at
tention is directed to this mobilization
of the ring's forces as further evidence
of tbo fact that, having over-reached
themselves, tbo bosses are now strain
ing every nerve to repair tbe damage to
their plans which their own indiscretion
has caused. That their strait is desper
ate is now well know n, even without the
prominence which these editorial gen
tlemen give tbe fact in their very ell'oits
to conceal it. 8ee bow they attempt to
throw dust in the eyes of voters, dodg
ing tbe real issue and dealing in sopliis'
tries of the most transparent texture
What else can they do? Willi no foun
dation upon which to base their case.
they can only hope to gain strength by
their specious arguments based on false
premises. No one knows this better
than the chief of the dinette? new stair,
who in his professional career has hud
experience with similar cases and
knows bow it feels to bo worsted.
Smoothly and sweetly be asseits that
the ticket nominated by the republican
county convention was in accordance
with tbo w ill of the majority, and that
the minority should bow to the gooil old
republican doctrine, that the majority
shall decide in all questions of dispute.
Farther alung he says: "Personal honor
and integrity to self, as well as the pub
lic, demand of all w ho were represented
in that convention by delegates of their
own choice and selection, as well as the
delegates who acted, the Rcquicsonce in
the ticket which was there nominated
by an honest majority of iho delegates
after an honest and fair contest."
Words, words. Ho would have the
voter believe that the primaries, the
convention, and tbo whole business,
was conducted in purity and simplicity,
uud therefore all republicans are in duty
bound to support tbo resulting ticket.
If tlio proposition were correct, the con
clusion would ho good doctrine; but be
is talking against his own knowledge.
He knows better. Ho i" well aware of
the unfair means, the tricks, jobs and
manipulation that wore used in prima
ries and in convention. I'nder the sur
face of child like Innocence and pretty
prattle about party purity, he "know
mur'n he lets on" in regard to the true
inwardness of the matter. lint he hopes
to deceive some ami to herd others into
line with the party whip. Prating of
majority rule under these circumstances
becomes the merest twaddle. Tbo ef
fectiveness of this course will depend
upon tbe credulity and blind partisan
ship of those w ho know nothing of the
facts, but republicans geneially are
neither simpletons nor cattle. The
"personal honor uud integrity to self"
that requires the minority to submit to
the decree of the majority when that
decree is really the woik of the majority
and evolved by honest means, also re
quires that men w ho do not wish to be
Considered as members of a coterie of
corrupt politicians will avoid too close
atbliulion w ith the boss of tbe ring uud
will decline to assist in the boss' dirty
work. The gentleman will perceive the
application,
The second writer also tells how pure
and upright everything was, and hints
that the IU'ikikt is tbe only impurity in
sight. W hut is "crawling on him"
seems to bo the fact that the price of a
column of space in the Hi pokt for the
riiiMi..,m 1'iiniliiliitoa to laud tlioni-
"f , . . V ,,
Helve in would Hot induce tha IU iuikt
to refrain from editorially oprnwiiigtlioae
candidate. In view of hi position in
tlit campaign, hi rightoou babbling ,
about those who take pait in politic,
"for revenue only" would indicate that ;
lie " n res other in hi own half
bushel." And when lie attempt to
critioiao tho political course of other he
.eeum to have forgotten the defeat of
tho wouM-K t'iUnlidato w ho "ftuoil in"
with hoth the ring and anti-ring, be
traying the latter and being "let down
gently" by both. The " personal en
emy" referred to by him is the per
sonal enemy of every honest man in
Morrow county, though a few have not
yet found that out, and as such will be
opposed by the Budget as long as he
continues bis nefarious practices. The
vaporings of this writer will not enlist
the sympathies of "the intclliuent voter
who does bis ow n thinking" in favor 0f !
the ring or its parasites.
The drift of the third writer's screed
may bo stated under two beards a will
ful distortion of the Bi'dokt's statement
which he follows up with argument
based on this false ussuinplion, and an
attempted defense of the ring-master.
If we are not mistaken as to his iden
tity, this young gentleman is much
more to be pitied than either of bis co
laborers. His original intentions were
good, but bis rapidly rising ambition-
laudable in itself so long as it did not
overmaster bis judgment blunted his
perception, destroyed his caution and
left him an easy prey to the winning
wiles of the arch conspirator. Learning
too late tbe equivocal position in which
his overweening desire for office has
made it possible for the boss to place
him, and lacking tbe moral couruge to
renounce tbe ring-master and bis meth
ods, bo now tries to put a bold face
upon tbo matter, defends bis master
and denounces the opposition. By mak
ing his evil genius to appear pure and
good he would clear himself, but the
tusk is one impossible of performance.
The character of the boss is too well
known to be whitened in tbe eyes of
men by any efToitsontho part of bis
dupes. This misguided young man has
gone too far to set himself right before
the voters by disingenuous argument
or pathetic appeals for support. Misap
plying the trite saying, "Every Ameri
can citizen claims the proud privilege of
voting and laboring for whom be may
please without compulsion or dictation
from any source," he states tbe very
principle that will defeat him in this
campaign. While there may be good
men on the republican county ticket,
they were not the choice of the people,
and voters do not propose to bo coerced
or cajoled by party bosses and under
lings into supporting them.
The meat of this whole matter, which
these writers have circumnavigated so
skillfully and so cleverly attempted to
conceal, lies in tbo fact that tbe result
put forth by tbe republican county con
volition was not in accordance with the
will of the people, but was the out
growth of unfair methods, trickery and
manipulation by the corrupt bosses and
their emissaries. This fact is well
known, and fallacious arguments bused
on false hypotheses, though presented
in bulk and urged with persistent repe
tition, will not win the voles of men
who have the strength of character to
oppose corruption, oppression and ring
rulo.

WHAT IS
WHITE DOUR A?
IT IS COMMONLY CALLED
EGYPTIAN CORN,
WHICH IS A
SUPERIOR FORAGE PLANT
AND I'KODUCES
A HEAVY YIELD OF GRAIN.
A FEW FARMERS IN MORROW COUNTY
liave tried it and are more than HatixfU'd
with the ruKUlts obtained. Try It and you will
never be without it. All the seedsmen speak
highly of it. Here Is what two of the best
known sav about it:
The yield of crain is very great; and cooked
when the kernels are not fully ripe, like green
eorn, It has the ituvor of chestnuts; or after
fully ripe, eooked like rice, or Krouud Into Hue
Hour or meal, and used for baking. Rawsou.
All the varieties of Douras stand firm aealnst
the highest wind, root deep, and will endure,
without injury, a drought that ruins corn.
The (train, which Is abundant. Is readily eaten
by cows, horses, iioks and mules, it fields an
immense mass of green foraue, aud bears the
grain in large heads at the top. Gregory.
It requires hut little moisture: succeeds
much better than corn; when cut green it
makes a miner or fodder: gives a heavy viebi
of line large white grain, which when coarsely
ground makes superior mush. A Scotchman
pronounces tms meai itir aneau 01 oai meat.
Chickens leave everything else for Egyptian
eorn. Cattle will break in to gut it. Horses
and mules want nothing better.
