The Html court of ap peal, where the rights, the liberty and even the lives of the people are at times t stake, needs to be composed of men of honor, integrity and of undoubted ability and1 learning. Politics should have nothing to do with the selection of the man to fill this office.; The dem ocrats have nominated a man whose rvnord and character, learning, integ lity and ability are such as to, make him especially fitted to tills high posi tion. On the contrary, Ills opponent, .Judge Moore of St. Helens, is, accord ing to bin own testimony, unfit to prnctice law, let alo-ie being placed on tlm supreme bench. More titan this, though practicing several years in the sfnte, Judge Moore has never yet had a neln the supreme court. We give lelow the substance of Judge, Moore's les'imony in the case of Titus H. Tay loragainst Sum Miles, which was tried nvently. Remember that these state ments are Judge Moore's statements as 5- v jtness under oath. He testified that , Jie drew a will for Mrs. Titus H. Taylor nt her husband's request; that when t w will was signed by Mrs. Taylor she wits' unconscious, or so nearly so that . he (Moore) would not be a witness, 1 hat by the terms of this will Mrs. Tay lor's (-.hildrfcu. were disinherited, and -the property was willed to her hus land. Titus H. Taylor. That he (Moore) was then employed by said Titus H. Taylor to probate the will, mud did probate it, notwithstanding Mie fact that he knew the woman was atlmost unconsqious and totally incapa- Meof making a will at tho time she abrned it. This being done, Mr.Moore, according to his own testimony, went . 1 . . i Vvt Id ft. !iiwvlif(i i rf X ' 1 1 i . - .......... J lor, and offered for a fee of $1,000 to break the will, because the names of the children were not mentioned . in it, .-and was by said children employed to Jbreak the; will, and did break it and et it aaide, so that the children inher ited property valued at about $12,00& lie thus T;fok advantage of his ! own -wrong in not properly drawing the will for, which Taylor paid him, and which work he was bound to lo cor jp!tly if he knew how, which heevi i "iitly did, since ht knew the names of the children should have been men tioned, when it cume to breaking the . wilj '!. ThWVas bad enough in all con- n :vtwt uut jjiuure wna iiul jei luruuu tit" ting the milk out of that cocoanut. Kevt Iia went, to tha htlrirpn nnA ivn. - - - - f resenU-rt that ue could sell the property mi $0,000, and obtained authority to do fit He then made some kind of ar rangement with other parties to- pur rhuse the property, he (Moore) buying two-thirds interest and turning in his $1,000 fee as part payment, so that two th'rdtt of property valued at from $12, "l 0 to $14,000 cost Mr. Moore, through 1 lustryand energy in looking after .ho interest of his clieuts, $3,000 coin i iul his fees for looking after their busi nens in his own interest.' These, how evi r, were not the meanest things he 1il, for be went to "Killen, Starr & Thomas," lawyers of Portland, to give ) m a decent : character afterwards. Killen, Starr fc Thomas were connected in some manner, with the case in their business as attorneys, and this firm gave it as their opinion, and for publi cation;,' that "Judge Moore had done nothing unprofessional." , Th la opinion they are entitled to, but we sincerely hope that Messrs. Killen, Starr & Thomas are better versed in "the cor rectness of legal questions than they are of moral ones, for no decent lawyer would do what Judge Moore testifies to having done. We do not believe that Killen, Starr & Thomas, or any one of them, would do what Judge Moore testifies to having done; and we do not see how they can Justify his conduct Judge Moore admits having taken' fees on both sided of the same case, of taking advantage of his own wrong, and also of taking advantage of Jiis clients. ' He may have done noth ing discreditable from a Portland at torney's pointof view, but decent coun try white lolks will hardly adopt their opinion. ' Judge Moore should be left at home, where the field is amply large for the dishonest practices of such self confessed shysters. . . ; J ' The Supreme Judge. ; Tlie Nt.w of Wasco Sherman coun ty, an independent paper, in speaking 4f the' supreme judgeship, says: ".' '.' "There is one reason why Judge Ben nett should receive the unanimous vote of Eastern Oregon, and that is, he is an .Easier u Oregon man in every sense of lite naming. He is a self-made man mida man of brains.; We know him to be plain and honest. His success in ; practice is proof of his ability. His opponent has no such record. Neither i iav aii Eatrteru Oregon man. ' ' Another fact to be considered is tiu. i il r. Moore is and has been a cor )ii;iuiii attorney. Can anything of tlie kind be said of Judge Bennett? Jn.nlly. His record ou that score is -Uiir. He never took a case into court lr u rttilroad corporation in his lite, I tit, on tlie other band, bus Invariably Uti found upon the other side and be People's Party Ticket. Supreme Judge, 4 W.H.WALKER, Of Oregon City, Clackamas Co. Congressman Second District, JOHN C. LUCE . Of John Bay, Grant Co. '. District Judge Seventh Judicial District, J. F. AMES, f Of Mitchell, Crook county. J listrlct Attorney Seventh Judicial District, . . . E. P. SINE, ' Of Lexington, Morrow Co. ; Member Board of Equalization for Seventh , District, . ' H..B, ALLEN. generally came out ahead. 'Western Oregon already has a ma jority on the supreme bench, and East ern Oregon is justly entitled to a repre sentative there. There is no politics in the office Bennett is absolutely an Eastern Oregon man; he is in ho sense a corporation attorney; we alt know him; as a man and attorney he if above reproach. This is . an office for which the best mau for the position should be selected, and the : people of Eastern Oivgon should roll up an unanimous vote forjudge Bennett on the 6th of June. He would be an honor to the bench and an honor to the state. This is a case where political prejudice should be cast aside." '' ; Hon. W. R. Ellis had his leg broken Wednesday. 0 He was coming into Ar lington on the stage, when the single tree broke and the team ran away. In getting out, Ellis stumbled and fell, breaking his leg below the knee '"This is peculiarly unfortunate, and we ex tend our heartiest sympathies to him. Mr. Ellis is on the other side of the fence politically, but he is an upright, intelligent, conscientious gentleman who bears the respect of all who know him. There is one' consolation for friend Ellis, and that Is that whjle it terminates his campaign, and will lay him up for some time, it will nut inter fere with his election to congress. .1 . Judge Thornbury says the Indebted ness of this county when he went into office was $62,000, and is now $57,000. The financial statement made just be fore election in 4888, by County Judge Liebe and County Clerk Thompson, under oath, showed the indebtedness to be $42,700 in round numbers. In settling with Sherman county, last year, the debt agreed upon as a basis of settlement was $104,0ot . : It seems from this that the Wasco county debt is a very fluctuating one, 1 '., , : . ," " Tlie Eastern editora have completed their labors in San Francisco'and have returned to their homes. One carload passed here Thursday, and candor com pels us to state that their foreheads did not seem' to bulge In an v percept able manner. In fact, they looked Just as common as the brethren of the quill in the neighboring city 'of Portland or even the country newsgatherers of this state. . ' A Suggestion, Some one with a little capital could be sure of a profitable Investment in Hood River if they would start a brick and tile machine here. We have good clay in the valley at several points, and the demand for both products is con stantly increasing. Good bricks are both scarce and high priced, and tile is almost unknown here, not because it is not wanted, but because it is almost unobtainable. '' '. Much of our most valuable and rich creek bottom lands and other springy places are as yet unused because they need underdraining, but when once drained an acre of such land is as prof itable as forty acres of common dry land. Tile would be used also to a large extent in sub-Irrigation, as the advantages of this. method over sur face Irrigation are very great. ': : The undersigned being located near Hood River, wishes to inform parties who may be desirous of having sur veying done, that he is a practical surveyor of many years experience, and that work entrusted to him will be performed with dispatch and correct ness. He takes pleasure in referring to Mr. A. S. Blowers, (who for years was county commissioner in Minnesota,) and for whom he did county . work as county surveyor, as to his ability.
