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.

President Palma, the first executive
of the Cuban republic, has just said to a
meeting of Cubans that “ we owe all
that we have, and all that we expect to
be, to the American government.” It is
a pleasure to hear these words of grati­
tude. They have been rather scarce in
the Cuban newspapers.
