More Reaervee,
8cnator Fulton wa notified on the
Slut that the Forwt Service contem
platea recommending the creation of
two new forettt reserve In Southern
Oregon, at an early day to be known
a the Fiemont and Oooae Lake re
serve. They will embrace land with
drawn aeveral year ago under the
name of the Warner Mountain with
draw aL The aggregate area, accord
ing to present plana, willbe nearly
.VXM.CJiiO acrea, about two-third of
tbe area ling in the Fremont re
aerve. Thl reeerve will He in the
northern part of Klamath afld Lake
Counties and the southwest corner of
Crook County. The Gooae Lake re
nerve will embrace the southeast por
tion of Klamath and tbe soutbweot
part of Lake countiea.
I'Iros showing tbe outline of the
proposed rewrve have len submit
tal to Mr. Fulton, with a request that
be make any suggestion which be
may deem proer. The Senator will
consult residents of Klamath, Lake
and Crook Counties and promptly lay
their view before the department. If
good reatton are produced, showing
why any land Included within the
proposed reserve should uot be re
served it is proltftble that such land
will be eliminated.
The irregularity of the outline of
tbeee reserve, following in many in
stances quarter section lines, indica
te the care that has tieen exercised to
Include only such land as i believed
to be adapted to forestry purpose.
Large are of agricultural land have
been eliminated and it I the opinion
of tbe department that what remains
I chiefly important for it timber, or
because it serves to protect tbe water
supply of Southern Oregon. Tbe con
struction of the Klamath irrigation
project make it highly Important
that the water supply of that region
dhould be protected. Tbe reserve is
to 1 created at this time partially oa
that account.

PERSONNEL OF THE
Bourne Victim of Calumny.
A man' political character is
proper subject of discussion ; and so
i hi private character, if be aspire
to public place. But it 1 cowardly,
despicable aud Infamous to make
anouvmou attack; the more so, of
course, if they are malicious and
false, a are the attack on Jonathan
liourne, printed aud circulated by
thousands, in the hope of defeating
him for the United State Senate.
Who are the cowardly calumniator
and assassins, who do this work and
shield themselve under anonymity?
Evidently they are person who have
money to iack their maliKnity, on
the one baud, and their selfish desire
to ojn the Seuatorship to purchase,
on tbe other. Circular by ten of
thousand cannot be printed aud sent
through tbe mail without money,
and a good deal of it. What pluto
crat, or croup of plutocrat, i "put
ting up" for these anonymous defam
atiou? They probably yet will be
discovered, aud braudod with tbe in
famy they deserve.
No creature 1 so despicable a be
who use the assassin' weapon of
anouymou attack.
Criticism of tbe political career of
Jonathan IJourue, or of any other
public man, i allowable, if done
ojeuly aud decently; but evee thl
never should !e doue by those who
work ia secrecy aud concealmeut,
afraid to avow themselves. Attack
ou the personal aud private character
of public men by a maliguaut coward
ice that conceal it own personality
aud utter caluuiuie from under cov
er, should be treated always with the
contempt that auch despicable work
deserve. To an anouymou circular
uo rlght-miuded person can pay auy
utteutiou whutever; and if callumn-
lous, tbe work cau only excite loath
ing toward those guilty of it.
Taking some of these libelous circu
lar to the iuvestltfutlou committee of
the Municipal Association of Port
laud, Mr. liourue requested au in
quiry into the charge they coutaiu
Several ersous, believed to be tbe
author or promoter of the accuse
tiou were called to come and testify,
but all of them refusod or declined.
Tbe committee bad no power to coin-

REPUBLICAN TICKET.
Two Candidates Have no Opposition Good
men for All the Offices to b Filled.
The election will have taken place '
tafore another Issue of the Examiner
and we feel constrained to again call
the attention of the voters to the ex
ceptional personnol of the Republican
Couuty ticket In this county.
There seem to be no contest for
the office of County Judge ana
Treasurer, Dr. Daly having no oppon
ent for the former and F. O. Abltrom
none for the latter ofllce.
For Sheriff we command to tbe
voters the RepubMcan candidate a a
man of strictest Integrity of whom
no word of criticism can be truthfully
spokea.
Albert Dent ha lived amongst us
for nigh onto twenty year, aud is one
cf the county's substantial citizens
and if elected, as he surely should be,
will make a capable, efficient and
trustworthy officer. Ills election is
assured.
For Clerk, the Republicans have
seen fit to place before tbe people E.
X. Jaquish aud we can assure tbe vot
ers and taxpayers of ihls county that
their interests will be beet conserved
by choosing him County Clerk. He
Is an honest, industrious and capable
man, peculiarly fitted to perform tbe
duties of that office.
"Ted," a he Is familiarly known,
wa the Republican candidate two
year ago and should have been elect
ed clerk at that time, but bis oppoa
ent at that time wa a candidate for a
second term and Ted was defeated by
a small majority.
Thl year Mr. Manrlng ask tbe vot
ers to elect him for a third term, but
we think two terms quite sufficient
and espoctaHy when B Dew niau lja
supetior qualifications to the one
who seeks a third term.
We predict that Jaquish will be
elected by an overwhelming majority.
For Commlsisoner the Republicans
have offered aa tbeir candidate one of
Lakev County's pioneer. Heary
Heryford need no iatrodactioa to tbe
voter of this county. He is a level
beaded man and the county' fiscal
affairs will be zealously guarded dur
ing the four ears which he is sure to
serve as. v
v Taking into consideration the excel
lence of each of our candidates for
county offices, the manner in which
they were nominated, and each a Re
publican majority ia the county,
there should be no doubt a to result.
anonymity refused to ' appear. Cow
ardly scoundrels, always are those
who pursue the work of secret defam
ation. But a some of these men are
known, they yet proWbly will have
tbe advantage, ia spite of all their
effort for secrecy, to tell la open
court what they pretend to know.
To oppose a man ia politics is one
thing; to defame his personal charac
ter is another, especially If it is done
under the cover of a cowardly aad ma
lignant anonymity. Nothing that
affect the character of men should be
published anonymously. Fortunately,
human nature 1 so constituted that
such publication usually defeut the
purpose of those who utter them.
The Oregon bin ha opposed Mr.
Bourne on ' many occasion hereto
fore. In former year, when tbe
money question wa supreme, it differ
ed from blm most widely. Tbat was
ten year ago, and it i past. Tbe
Oregonian never questioned the. boa
esty of hi motives, aad it gave blm
credit for tbe courage of hi convic
tions. That was more thaa it could
say for many or most of tbe conspicu
ous men of the Republican party who
tbea were juitgling with tbe money
question. That contention, however,
beloug to the pat. It never will be
reuewed. io more forever will tue
gold standard be questioned. Mr.
Bourne wa uo more lu error on the
money question, aud far more honest,
than a large majority of the active Re
publican politician, of Oregon;
among whom are those now making
on him these cowardly attack from
ambush, la tbe bope of advantage to
themselves through party disorganiza
tion. Oregon ian.
Necessity of Party Vote.
There 1 no doubt but that tbe
effort to defeat liourue at tbe polls
next Monday U tbe first step to kiuock
out tbe primary law. With 20,000
majority lu the state of Oregon, lie
publicans ought to be ashamed ' for
a democratic Senator or Governor to
be elected. It I a known fact tbat
the very spirit that ha put demoobrU
lu couuty office In countiea over
wheliuingly Republican ha led to
nearly every important office iu the
state, both couuty aud district to be
filled with democrats. With a Demo
crat a governor, a democrat a Unit
ed State Seuutor, and more than half
the couuty offices iu the state filled
with Demociat, what cau be exact
ed of Oregon a a Republican etute
and a suporter of President Roose
velt f There i uq surer way to defeat
the purpose of the primary law thaa
for tbe Republican voter to break
away from tbeir party aud vote for
Democrat, either lu couuty, district
or state. What cau state, accomplish
for the Republican party uulea it i
supported in tbe counties of which
it 1 made up? Couutie are an im
portant divislou of tbe state aud the
state an important divisloa of the na
tion. Why, then, should offices in
counties claiming a Republican major
ity be filled with Democrats, who are
oppposed .to the policies of the party
such counties claim allegiance to?

Your attention called to fact tbat
through Democrat io party slanderous
aad untrue circulars are being sent
through mail to every voter in State

is clear case of union between Demo

law to defeat Republicaa nominee at

primary law in Legislature with Sen
