Just as well have awarded Mr. Brodhead the contract when the bids were opened, but -it seems the bosses did not want him to have it. * * * Missouri was al ways democratic but last year it went republican. Who knows but what someday the political bosses will knife the republican party so badly in Oregon that it will put the state in the democratic column ?
