"Tub people hate a traitor," says the
(Jazette. They do for a fact, tlwnirh thoy
do not make the application implied by
that sheet. It is also a fact that the
people despise a nonentity and a lick
spittle, as witness the general contempt
for the (liiZfUr. expressed in Jleppnor,
whore it is best known.
Tint miHDcukuhla bosh that emanates
from the den of the Morrow county ring

umns of the (Imette shows to what clap
trap men of ability will resort when
they direct their elloits to the task of
bolstering up the waning power of an
unprincipled boss.
Tiik secretary of the Oregon immitfra
' tion board thinks the population of the
state will be increased by lolOOO this
year. After Portland and "the valley"
have been packed it is hoped that the
board will inform throe oT four immi
grants that there are a few quarter-sections
of desirable land east of the Cas-
cuueB.
It has been urged against lion. W.

. Til a special couimitteu of the National
Kefiiriu league, appointed to impure into
the condition of the reform law, esti
mates that more than one-third of the
entire time of each congressman is cim
nuiiicd in securing oflices for his constit
uents. Taking the last congress for an
example, the committee found that the
tuimtwr of bills and joint resolutions in
troduced was 17,078 out of which more
than 11,000 were never reported from
the committee to which they were re
ferred; that about 1,41)0 were reported
but never reached consideration, while
less than .1,500 were finally acted upon.
Hon. lli.NtiicH IIuhmann, whose re
election will be brought about by the
votes of both republicans and demo
crats, has little of the flash and fuss that
, with some representatives and senators
takes the place of real work lor their
ronstrtiUMitn. He does not spend bis
time in preparing nnd delivering bun
comlie speeches, but earnestly, forcibly
tiixl with the eloquence horn of perfect
sincerity he advocates those measures
that will be of heneilt to the people
whom lie represents, and his labors ac
complish results. This course has en
listed the admiiation and respect of his
follow members and has endeared him
In the hsarts of Oregonians, both east
nnd west of the Cascades. The settlers
i( eastern Oregon note with especial
Matisfaction his dibits in their behalf.
Isolated and scattered, struggling with
disadvantages nyt known in the more
populous (tortious of the state, too often

which Is of the kind that doe not
epend itself in noise and (roth, seeking
applause, but with patient persistence

si nit and buckskin moccasins of tbe

REPUBLICAN NOMINEES.
Brief Sketci.es of the Men Whose Names
Crace the Republican State and
Gilliam County Tickets.
Never in the history of Oregon has
a better or stronger ticket been placed
in the field than the one nominated by
the Oregon state republican convention
at Portland on April 22, 18!)0. Unlike
the usual nominations, there is not a
weak name on the ticket, but all are of
the best material in the party.
HON, IlINfll'K HERMANN,
The candidate for re-election to con
gress, is too well known by bis long
and faithful service in that capacity to
need any recommendation. This repre
sentative has phown himself to be the
true and tried friend of the people, ever
ready to perform the most trifling of
services as well us grout nets for his con
stituents. Ho lias made for himself a
reputation Tor devotion to the interests
of the people, and for persistent and un

ablest members of the house of repre
sentatives. His mujority of 7,000 will
be repeated in June.

worthy to grace the gubernatorial chair
of Oregon; is ono of tbo ablest men for

and, thanks to his pluck uud push, en
joys the prosperity he so richly de
serves, lliw is an honorable, broad
minded man, with' nothing of the dema
gogue and blatant politician like his
opponent. On Juno L'd Hon. David P.
Thompson will be elected governor by a
largo majority.
HON. H. S. IlKAN,
Candidato for supreme judge, is ono of
our ablest jurists. He is an Oregon-raised
man, and was educated ut Kugeno City.

and esteem of the entire people.
HON. UKO. W. M'llHIDK,
Another Oregon-bom and liberal man,
has tilled the olllce of secretary of state
in a thoroughly satisfactory manner to
all parties; is an able, careful anil
obliging olltcial, and the eiithusiuHin
manifested on his renomination shows
the conlidence the people reposo in him.
His success is assured.
HON. Hill.. MKTSCIIAN,
The genial candidate for state treas
urer, is so well and favorably known
in eastern Oregon that any comment is
almost useless. He lives in Grant, our
neighboring county, where he has held
many ollices of trust to his honor. He
is a thoroughly reliable and M'able gen
tleman, possessing all the iih..lillattions
that go to muke up the ideal statu treas
urer. HON. k. h. m'bi.roy,
Who will succeed himself as superin
tendent of public instruction, is known
by bis works. He has done more for
the elevation ami advancement of edu
cation in Oregon than auv other man in
the state. Mr. Mc Kirov is one of our
most industrious and hardest workeis.
rHANK C. IIAKKK

succeed himself. He enjoys the distinc
tion of being the best Btate printer that
Oregon has ever bad. He is prompt
ami exact In Ins work, and fully tie
serves the re-election that surely awaits
llllll.
Suiely, no good republican can look
upon the above ticket with disfavor and
cratch a single name, nor can he search
the sWte over uud Hndi better one. We
are proud of it.
W. H. WILSON,
Candidate for prosecuting attorney of
Uie Seventh judicial district, is a promi
neut and successful attorney of the tirm
of Bennett A Wilson, of The Dalles. He
is a staunch republican, an able attorney
and a man w ho is respected by all w ho
know linn. Ms will till the othce in a
worthy and satisfactory manner. His
majority will be flattering to him.
GILLIAM COUNT TICKET.
HON. W. W. STEIWER,
The candidute for representative, is a
man of much more than ordinary intel
ligence, a life-long republican and de
voted to the interests of the county. He
has served well and faithfully in posi
tions of trust before. He is a fixture in
his county nnd lias the good of the
whole of Gilliam at heart, irrespective
of locality. He is a representative man
and one of whom we may well feel
proud in our legislative nails.
HON, WM. MARINER,
Candidate for county judge, is nlso well
and favorably known throughout the
county, having served as county com
missioner for the past two years, with
universal upproval. He is an intellec

he has systematized thoroughly. Mr.
Sanderson udheres strictly to business,
and is fearless in the discharge of every
duty, lie is criticised only for doing his
duty strictly, und will be re-elected by
an increased majority.
J. P. Lt;CAS,
Candidate for re-election to the clerk
ship, needs no introduction, having been
in tliut position until the people have
had ample opportunity to judge of his
fitness for the office. No complaint has
been heard of him while serving in that

mendation. ISAIAH HirRT,

fied for the position, and enjoys the

amid gieat applause, for the office of

recipient of many congratulatory mes
sages and telegrams, umong which is one
from lion. V. V. Mays, U. S. district at
torney at Portlund. Hankins is the man.

TIMELY TOPICS.
A Former Resident of Gilliam Discusses
Politics and Other Questions of the
Moment in Attractive Style.
I am glad to see the independent
Btand the lii'DGKT is taking in politics,
and hope its readers will emulate the
example. This country is boss ridden ;
every organization is cursed with bosses,
so much so that intelligent people smile
contemptuously when they hear dema
gogues proclaiming from rostrums in
every city and hamlet that " this is a
government of tho people, for the peo
ple and by the people." What non
sense! Take politics for an example.
Innocent voters imagine that men are
nominated at the county convention
through the delegates sent from the
primaries. Tbe bosses, big and little,
understand that a few educated wire
pullers have fixed the slate long before
TUB PHIMAKV FAllCB,
And that the prominent candidates are
virtually nominated long before the
county convention meets. I know of a
gentleman, not a thousand miles from
our state, who went around to the prom
inent politicians of his county und nomi
nated himself by getting till the available
delegates to the county convention to
promise t hut they would vote for him,
and in his own district he delegated
himself to attend the county conven
tion, for he and a friend of his, were the
only persons present at his district pii
mary, which was called by himself und
held in bin office; und yet the people
who elected him thought he was their
candidate, and bo was just us much so as
many a candidate is the people's choice.
l!ut there are some candidates that
won't go down with the most gulli
ble voter cod-liver-oil candidates, who
make the people gag. Such men ure
put up by their party bosses to be
traded off.
tiik "m noiox's" comihnation ticket.
I know the people will be glad to see
Binger Hermann's name ut the head of
the IintKiicT's political mosaic, nnd I
don't think Governor Pennoyer will be
ashamed to be on the list, and all the
signs seem to point to the election of
Hermann, Pennoyer and Mcllride. The
people of Morrow will only honor them
selves by electing ,f. W. Morrow their
county dork. Mr. Morrow is an intelli
gent man of known clerical ability, and
a gentleman besides, so well and favor
ably known in fact that nobody has to
introduce him to the voters of his
comity; so, with a Godspeed to him and
your joint senator, McIIaley, and a pat
on the buck of both ye editors for good
judgment, I quit this enticing, exciting
subject of politics anil turn to the still
more exciting subject of
TIIK POitTLAND STRIKE,
Where the bosses come in again. The
boss builders and the bosses of the car
penters are still at war, and trade is dis
hearteningly dull. Immense bargains
ure shown in windows, but as there is
absolutely no money in general circula
tion, the goods will he tuken out of the
windows and put buck ngainat ndvanced
prices in a little different shupe when
times ure better. To ndd to the general
depression tho Willamette is rising fast,
und merchants with ull their clerical
forces are foj tho second time within
ninety days getting ready to be flooded
out. In June they expect to move
ngain; but the weather is warmer now,
and malarial fever is preferable to pneu
monia, which prevailed last winter.
Tho lodging-houses, hotels und saloons
are in full blast, and if one can judge
from the crowds of oiiiireimed idle la
borers that fill the latter places of resort
tu overflowing, the fund that Iho feder
ated trades and others have sent will
inako bloated bond-holders of the beer
slingers; so one can see whore the
extta hour w ill be paused if tho strikers
gain it. llie
l TOPIAN NOTION
That the vast majority of workingmen
in cities will use the extra hour for im
proving their minds is as fallacious as
the idea that the exta pay will be used
in making their families more comfort
able. Not being un office-seeker obliged
to bow down and cringe to the will of
the foreign hoides which are turning
this country upside down, I dure to
speak my mind. It is only in cities that
the curse of this foreign immigration is
so manifest, for the vile lu..aroni of
Italy, tho seditious und treacherous
Poles, the anarchists of Germany, the
nihilists of Kusfia, the paupers of Ire
land, ami, worst of all, the Jews of
everywhere, are not fond of legitimate
labor, und there is always some way of
getting along in a city, so they leave tho
country to the honest toiler, and luugh
ut htm for toiling and being honest, liut
TIIK KAKMKHS
Can stand their contempt, for the sturdy
manliness of the granger is all that
saves this country from going to ruin.
Tho furmer bus something better than
hayseed in his hair. Ho meets the
seething masses of the great city und
bayonets them with his unhought ballot
at election time. Ha is the weight thut
keeps the scales of justice even. He
wears rough clothes; there is nothing
dainty about him; his Knglish is apt to
he more forcible than elegant, but he
reads tho country papers, which in the
main are published in the interest of the
people and are full of healthy senti
ments. He forms his own opinions
slowly, but generally sticks to them
though he is uot too oiistinate to listen to
reason, but political orators must not
attempt to gull him with soft soap and
sophistry.
UltA.NOKR BOVS AND THE " ELKPII ANT."
The city has its great temptations for
the granger; but as he invariably gets
into trouble whenever he enteis one, a
very little of city life goes a great ways
with him, and he is not apt to expatiate
upon the beauties of the "elephant"
he has seen in the gilded cages of a
city. Kach country youth has '"been
there" some time, but the glory of bis
adventures is a sealed book except in
the police courts. Hut never mind;
"experience is the best teacher," and
ho rarely repeats the dose, and the
beauties of nature shine resplendent
afterward, and more than rival the
beauties of a great city in the opened
eyes of the granger boy.
