It was largely owing to Mr. Eddy’s influence that Mr. Severance was re-a u pointed. * * * Rollie is about the greenest person we have come across for a long time.

And ano ther thing. He was green in carrying a “blind pig" amljeasily trapped when lie delivered the goods himself. And still another thing, when the "pigs' began to squeal in camp some of the campers im mediately pulled up stakes and moved away because of the "pigs." We have Rollie over a barrel and he is so green that he cannot see farther than his nose Keep dinging awav at it, Rollie, tor vou I have already published enough evidence to justify a grand jurv in returning an indictment against you for having a "blind pig.” ft * * Another prominent citizen has passed away from Tillamook and gone to the great lieyond, and it is with a pang of pain that we have to record the death of Mr. T. B. Handley, which removes from our midst a character that was unique and peculiar in some things. Gifted with a bright intellect, a good memory, a fine flow of language, with a certain amount of native wit, lie was coqtent to remain amongst us nt n time, when, had he combined industry with his abili ty, he should have become prominent as as a leader and conld have filled any posi tion in the gift of the people with honor. Nature was good to him and endowed him with those characteristics, and it is a wonder to his many friends that be allowed his opportunities to pass away. As an attorney he was head anil should ers above the average lawyer. Perhaps we ought not to say it, but Mr. Hand lev was too large hearted for his own good and that of his family, but it is a characteristic often found in men. He will be missed in Tillamook, and there will be the vacant chair in the home, and a widow and sons to mourn the death of a loving husband and an indnl. gent father to mourn their loss. * » * There are some few republican news papers in the Willamette valley resort ing to dirty politics in the congressional fight This is not right, for instead of healing up the wounds in the republican partv it tends to keep them still bleed ing. We have the greatest respect for each of the aspirants for congress in the first district, and no matter who it is that lands the nomination, we want to see the defeated aspirants turn in and help elect the party nominee. If that is (’one, factional fights will soon be a thing of the past. If not, and if some of the disgruntled new »papers like the New. berg Graphic keeps holding up aspirants in the congressional fight in the republi can party to public ridicule, it is only paving the way to turn this distiict over to the democrats. Anyone can see that it is a personal, and not a party, fight that the Newberg Graphic is engaged in against Walter L. Tooze, but that is the kind of politics that is responsible for so many republican defeats in Oregon in re cent years. There will be no harmony in the republican party as long as the Graphic andother republican newspapers make harmony impossible. We have the greatest respect for the republican aspi rants for congress in thefirst district,and can say a kindly word for each of them, tor they are gentlemen who deserve the respect, and not the abuse, of the Press. The truth just as well come out as not, lor it is plain to those who understand the political situation that Tooze is now a long way ahead of the other aspirants, and it is generally conceded by those who studv the political weather gauge that Tooze will lie the next congressman, that is if republicans will put their petty jea. lousies aside and not climb into dis. gruntled republican band wagons which have rode .over party principles and de feated party candidates.
