The Oregonian Ims been trying to drive about two-thirds of the republicans of this state out of the parly. It Ims at last kicked itself out and is trying to take some others with it. A few persons were so misera­ bly dense ns to consider the article entitled “Advice to Voters” last week to be written in a serious vein. Such persons really should employ some one to do their i hinkiiig.

Mr. Brooks, tlm nominee for joint representative form Yamhill and Tillamook, is said to be a ever have been vitally opposed to each other. Since the understanding and misunderstanding of a talk be­ tween Jesus of Nazareth and his disciples about I860 years ago, or the misconstruing of truths spoken by him as recorded by St. Mathew, XVI, 18, of his gospel contained in the Christian Bible as printed by the American Bible Society. There has been a dispute as to the foundation upon which the church of Christ was built. One party claims that the church of the humble Nazarene was built on the truth that Peter gave as an answer to the question of his Mas­ ter, “But whom do ye say that 1 am?” And the other party claims that the ehurcli was built on Peter. Humanity, as proven by the his­ tory of our race, is devotional and however unreasonable and cruel we as a race have been, or now are, we are still devotional and claim a right to sustain what we claim as our privilege, if merely approved by the object of our de­ votion. Thus it is easy to explain tlm cause of the massacre of Christians by the Turkish soldiers. They have nothing in the object of their devotion to restrain them, and their rules allow them to continue their brutality for conquest and superiority. There is doubtless much ignor­ ance among the inhabitants of Til­ lamook of every creed, and the wisest of us know hut little com­ paratively. Let each draw the screw and let on the light. E. B. C hamberlain . OUR LAST LEGISLATURE. E d . H eadlight :—Almost every man knows tlm record of our last legislature and can remember the battle carried on by tlm republi­ cans in their effort to elect a gold standard mail for U.S. senator. Many people believe that the light was curried on in order to divert the people's attention from the ex­ travagant appropriations made. You will please call to memory that a huge majority of our last legislature were republicans, many of them if not all were pledged for retrenchment mid promised to abolish all useless boards and com missions. Not a single one of their pledged were kept except the re­ tiring of Senator Dolph. Even the Oregonian could not refrain from expressing its approval of a smaller majority of republi­ cans in our legislature. The lol- lowing language was used by the Oregonian: “Possibly it may occur to the people of Oregon to make n change in the quality of mem whom they send to the legislature. Possibly it would he bettor if a less propor­ tion of them were members of a single political party.” I agree with tlm Oregonian in that, and now that the election is near at band, the people should take th« advice of tlm Oregonian mid not give tlm republicans 72 out of 90 members of our next leg­ islature as they did two years ago. Whenever one party gets too strong, many would-be leaders arise, and in limit- scramble for political prominence in their party factions, they forget their prom­ ises to tlm people and become tlie tools of unscrupulous p-ilitieians. Records are sometimes line things to refer io, but I hardly think the republicans will have the nerve to refer to tlm records of our last leg islature. It would hardly do to recall to tlm minds of the taxpay­ ers how hundreds of tliousmids of dollars of tlm people's money was appropriated for useless purposes, and only one thing could be said ill furor of our last legislature mid that is it was not quite as bad as th« one proceeding.
