G. Beals for joint representative, for it would be a political blunder to send a democrat to the state legislature from this county. * * Incorporated cities “graft” the man who drinks for city improvements. That is not a square deal to the man who is in the habit of taking his drops. * * * One cf the speakers ata political meet ing at Springfield said the democratic party is troubled with political appendi citis, which Dr. Withycombe will cure. * * * How are you going to vote on Mon day ? So that people can come to Till amook City and “load up’’ with whis key or “load up” with merchandise for their wives a nd families and homes ? * * * At the last term of the circuit court, while addressing the bench, attorney McCain laid special emphasis upon what he was saying when he remarked ‘ I hope the people of Tillamook won't elect that fellow VVoolfe again.” * * If The Headlight is not advocating the e’ection of any one of the republican can didates. It is for the entire ticket, from top to bottom. If republicans can’t get together and vote together this year it is hard to tell when they will. * ft ☆ Every aspirant for office was given a “square deal” in the primary election, and if the primary law is to be made a success of republicans should not scratch nny of the candidates and should vote for all of them. * * * Bricklayers are getting $7 a day in San Francisco and their help $4 a day. That must be a big temptation to the editors of country editors to learn bricklaying, for $42 a week, and eight hours a day, would make most of them feel good. * * * Dem ora tic leaders say foreign born de mocrats are only fit to voce but not fit to hold office. The republican leaders say foreign born citizens are fit to vote and fit to hold office, and to show their sincerity republicans are supporting Dr. With) combe. ' for Woolfe two years ago. The tax payers who pump the cows don’t get i double pay for their milk, by any means, but thev have to help pay Woolfe the $1,600 and the extra money for making 1 arrests. Who’s being milked ? * * # According to a report in the Corvallis Times, the “jail expenses” of Benton county for the past 12 months were less than any other county in Oregon, being onlv $29 67. This extraordinary show- ing in Benton county mav be phenome nal, even there ; it may lie due to un usual economy on the part of the sheriff and other officers of that county ; but it is only fair to assume that it is due in large part to the fact that Benton conn- ty is “dry,” has no saloons within its borders. “No booze in Benton ;” there fore, no need of a jail.—Oregon Journal. * * * No one can deny this, yet it is some thing the voters ought to know. W. 0. Chase, who claims to be a republican, and has announced himself an independ entcandidatein opposition to the regu lar republican candidate for justice of the fieace in the second district, is being sup ported bv several attorneys,one of whom is the paid attorney for the liquor inter ests in this county.
