The politician or office seeker who an tagonises the Headlight has something to learn in politics. * * * Those who think the political party they belong to owes them a living had better be getting out their shingle. * * * The two S’s who have been tried and found wanting—Simon and Sappington. Hadn’t they better form a silent partner ship ? * * * If you’re one of Judge Sappington’s political pups don’t get mad if the editor curries your back—the wrong way about —and makes the bristles stand up. * * * Judge Conder didn’t do a thing to Sap pington in 1894, when he beat him by 128 votes for county judge, and if the democrats nominate to ex-judge it will jiaye to be a pretty strong republican who can beat him. • * # * This is about the situation in the com ing senatorial fight : Little Joe Simon is seeking the office and the office is seeking Harvev. Joe will result to every politi cal trick to secure the prize, while it will have to be a spontaneous demand of the people before Harvey Scott would ac cept it. * ,* * Ex-Senator J. W. Maxwell called upon the editor on Saturday and assured us that he was not a candidate for joint representative or any other office. Altho ugh we had previously been confiden tially told otherwise by reliable parties, we will let that pass and believe that Mr. Maxwell is tbicere in what he now tells us. * * * Senator Simon lias a bigger political fight on his hands than he is aware of, for although he may have his hand on the political machine and the biggest political pot,- ttte citizens of Oregon fail to see whatJie has done in Washington for the state, and as he is looked upon as a very, very small potato, surely it will be little trouble to defeat him and send someone of influence to occupy the seat. * * * The editor hail a conundrum put to him on Saturday by a person who called upon him, and as they would notexplain we do not know whether it is a joke upon the editor or some other fellow. We can stand it if the other fellow can. This was the question : “W’liat is the price of political potatoes at Nehalem ?’’ We never heard of political potatoes be fore, and as we are in the dark will some one pie ise enlighten us. * * * From all indications the political fight in Multnomah c< u-ity will be between Simon and his political enemies, for the latter have become so numerous, influen tial and uncontrolable that thy political whip which Boss. Simon held over their heads so long is no longer feared. We hope Simon’s political enemies will come out on "top, for Simon’s domineering, dictating course is neither to the interest of the republican party, the taxpayers or honest politics. * * * Neither faction in the republican party of this county, political bosses, office holders or office seekers, do not and can not control the H eadlight or dictate to us who we shall recommend for office at the next election. It is not the advocate ! of a faction with the avowed intention l of capturing the party machine to thrust I objectionable and incompetent candi dates upon the party. The public should know who are aspirants for public office, | and in that resjiect we propose to carry 1 out the function of a newspaper and comment upon the merit and demerit of each, then leave to the convention and the voters to decide which they think are best to fill the offices.
