THE STRONGEST CANDIDATE
npllERE is hotlov inaloi'ial
- dHlaloji for goyornoi thau among Iho roimDlican tuts
vohr.' Tho list oontainti somo of Iho loading oitizons of tho
state, -who havo nuulo their mark both in private and pub
lic life.
There is some driftwood oil tho stole. 0. A. Cobb, for
instance, who proposes to magically "restore prosperity"
nnd nbolisb Honor." is to fame unknown.
Colonel K. A. Miller, who
and oluinty platform, was raised m Jackson county, but
does not seem to be seriously considered as among the pos
sible winners.
The race has narrowed down to John Manning, former
district attorney of MulUiomnh county; .Judge A. b. Uen
nett of The Tlaflos, and Dr. C. J. Smith, formerly of Pen
dleton, now of Portland.
Mr. Manning is appealing for support upon a self-made
issue of "state aid for settlement of rural lands and reduc
tion of taxes." His strength
he is but little known through
Tiult'o Uenliett is a leading lawyer of the state. His
plat form is intended as a slap at Governor West. Tt reads:
"Enforcement of law according to law; lower taxes; hon
est government; business administration." lie has grown
wealthy in damage cases brought against the railroads.
Dr. Smith has boon dubbed bv the Oregmiian as the
"residuary legatee" of Governor "West, and his platform
reads: "Strict law enforcement; lower taxes."
A close scrutiny of these candidates will show that Dr.
C. .T. Smith is the only one with any previous executive
experience, lie was mayor of Pendleton and a good
mayor. Ho was state senator for two terms from Umatilla
county, and made an excellent record. He has been for
years a member of the state board of health and stands
hitrh in his profession.
Moreover, Dr. Smith is the
the candidates. Judge Jiennett is really a reactionary. Jle
fought Tho Dalles public schools for years. He fought
public improvements like street paving in the courts. He
is opposed to road bonds for highway work. Ite repre
sents the old-time, old-stylo Oregonian who was content
to vegetate and kept the state lagging behind the proces
sion of progress.
Dr. Smith is evenly balanced and well poised. Do is
of true gubernatorial size, and will make an excellent gov
ernor if elected. That he stauds for the people as well as
for progress, and is, in fact, the strong man of democracy,
is shown by the bitter, venomous, unfair and dastardly
campaign being waged against him by the Portland Ore
gonial), which has hired a would-be cowardly murderer to
assassinate Dr. Smith s character!
Dr. Smith, alone of the leading candidates, is familiar
with the resources and development of Jackson county. He
has been a frequent visitor here. He made the fight in the
state senate for the Crater Lake and Ashland normal bills
and could always be depended upon to help southern Oregon.
Dr. Smith will undoubtedly be nominated and proli
ably elected. 3Tc is the one man the Oregonian, creature
of vested interests and organ of predatory plutocracy,
dreads, and the fact that this arch enemy of the common
people fights Dr. Smith is reason enough for his success.
lie is recognized as the onlv
elected.
Democrats of Jackson county have h chance to show
their appreciation of Dr. Smith's efforts in their behalf in
the senate, and he should receive a record majority. . The
most progressive county should go on record for the most
progressive of candidates.
ADVERTISED BY LOVING FRIENDS
?
IN the Portland papers appears the following advertise
ment, evidently inserted hy Postmaster "Myers in bo-
half.oL his personal candidate for national cemmitteeman:
Ueinocrots! The Mcdford Trlbuuo knifed Harry I.ano and supported
Dourno for senator. Shall such treachery bo rewarded by clotting tho Tri
bune's candidate for National committeeman? Democrats, take no chances,
but vote for a Rcnulno Wllwon democrat, If. M, Ksterly, for National com
mitteeman. Paid Adv.
This is good advertisement for the Mail Tribune, but
political assininity on the part of the advertiser.
The Mail Tribune is not a candidate for office. It is
an independent paper and supports the candidate it deems
best for the office, regardless of party. Hence its support
of Jonathan Bourne, Jr., for the senate.
The Mail Tribune is supporting Mr. Canon for national
committeeman because he is the best qualified for the
piece, because his party work has earned party reward,
because southern Oregon is entitled to recognition. The
Mail Tribune did not bring Mr. Canon out, and had noth
ing to do with liis candidacy,
sible lor its various sins ot oinission and commission.

THE DEMOCRATIC LAFFERTY
IN an interview in the- Oregonian, Postmaster V. 13.
Mvers of Portland answers the charge that ho had reg
istered as an independent at
Dr. Lane became a candidate lor senator 'changed to demo
cratic registration, as follews:
' It any perron will' havo tho nerve In my tbeso thlncs to ino himself,
1 will slap III in In tlio face."
Just like the Honorable A. AValter Lafferty! Almost
that great statesman's exact words! Next, Postmaster
Myers will stand on his head at some public function to
show that he also has social breeding!
Put the dignified democratic Lafferty really did not
mean that he would be so bloodthirsty not in this age of
watchful waiting. What ho really meant to say was that
he would slap him on the wrist.

The records show that Mr. Singler was appointed upon
his agreement; to provide for the widow and family of his
dead brother. They show that ho tried afterwards to don,
making such a pledge and was forced 'hy the county court
to live up to hisNigrooiuont as he would never have licen
appointed otherwise. . .
The records also show that Mrs! Singler. widow of Iho
late sheriff, has twice since the present sheriff's appoint
nient applied for widow's pension, making oath that she
had no moans of support. ISaoh time the present sheriff
pleaded her cause, claiming that he did not agree to care
for the family.
Phat the sheriff is living up to his agreement is no
fault of his own simply a case of necessity.
