To show how Eastern Oregon stands
Lon the Gubernatorial situation, the
Statesman has. during the p&it few
weeks, gathered a few excerptfroin
the papers of that section' of the state,,
ihowjng the feeling there. In regard
to the Governorship:
FROM REPUBLICAN PRES
Admits Furnith'f Unpopularity. '
Kta tesman : The Democratic East
Oregonlan. which launched the boom
for- an Eastern Oregon man for Gover
nor, is almost desperate because the
Republican papers of that section re
fuse to champion the cause of the can
didate aprlng to the nomination to
the Governorship end under fhejjead
line of "Show Your Colors," It fays:
"The Salem Statesman assert that no
Kastern Oregon Republican Journal Is
supporting a- candidate from this part
of the state for the office of Governor.
The Statesman rha' overlooked many
expressions that hare "come to the at
tention of the exchange reader of the
ICast Oregonlan, yet ltis true that the
Kastern Oregon Republican papers are
slow" to take advantage of the situation
to come out openly for . their ' men.
Show your colors Is a good motto, to
offer these Journals Just now. Can
didates will have little debt of grat
itude towards tries silent papers- In
the event- th-y receive recognition In
the Republican Convention." - The
Statesman has exercised great care in
itsJsearch for an expression from any
Republknn paper east of the Cascades
favorable to the candidates mentioned
from that purt of the stats. , However,
some may have escaped notice, and If
the Kant; Oregonlan will furnish a sin
gle favorable'comment from h Republt

An Orsgen Man Wanted.-'
i Duf or Dispatch : ,There seems to b
a disposition on the part of some of our
contemporaries, in Ewstern Oregon, to
give to the office of. Governor a sec
tional cast, by suggesting that this or,
oimcs
Press of That Section,
Past few Weeks, Showing
that man would be deshfible candi
date because he is an' Eastern Oregon
man. To this proposition" we are unable
toiaceede. The Governor of Oregon
should be an Oregon man, sufficiently
broad minded to be Governor of the
whole state, without regard to section.
The two principal Qualifications for
Oregon's. Executive should be strict in
tegrity land the ability to properly dis
charge the duties of the office. There
are, of course, other considerations, but,
without these two, no man should; be
thought of for the office. The Lewis
and Clark Exposition, in 1905,; Will oc
cur during the term of office of the next
incumbent. This fair will attract to
Oregon the attention of the entire civ
ilized world, and naturally . Oregon's
Governor will be a noticeable figure.
He should, besides , the qualifications
mentioned, be a genial, courteous man
of good address, and capable of doing
and saying the right thing at the right
time. These are, to ouismlnd, the con
siderations that should govern in the
selection of our Governor at this par
ticular time qf all others, and the fact
that a man is a resident of Wasco,
Umatilla, Multnomah or Jackson .coun
ty, or of Eastern or Western Oregon,
should cut no figure In the selection, i
Geer Will Bs Rsneminatsdw'
Malheur Gazette: From present In
ications Eastern Oregon will again
have to be content without a prominent
candidate on the next Republican state
ticket. The only gentleman from this
part of the state who lave announced
their Intention to be candidates before
the next State Convention are Judge
Lowell and W. J. Ftirnislj, both of pen
dleton, who have both announced tbelr
candidacy for Governor. It is unfortu
nate for Eastern Oregon that these
gentlemen, both ' from the same town.
should announce themselves hoth- for
the Same office, as about the only pur
pose the candidacy of each will serve
will be to kill off the 6th?r. And. un
less the unforeseen happens,. Governor
Geer will be renominated without- any
very serious opposition. Eastern Ore
gon is certainly entitled to some recog
nition, and if the "cow counties' could
unite on Williamson of Frlneville for
Secretary of State, or Young of Baker
county for State Printer,! or Miller of
Ontario for Attorney General, we would
be ulKiost sure of success. And there
Is no gool reason why Eastern Oregon
should not ask for and recrlve all of
these places on the ticket, as we have
about two-thirds the-area and- one-
third the population of the entire state,
L . . Grsecs's Fidelity. !,.::
Baker City Republican: If there Is
an example of fidelity to. Eastern Ore
gon interests by those high to author
ity It Is found In the work of the pres
ent Governor. He Is, as a matter of
(acU more exclusively a citizen from
this part of the state than' from any
other, notwithstanding prolonged ab
sence from Union county, but the Gov
ernor's' early experience endeared this
part .of the state to him and when he
left strong ties of friendship were not
severed.. He manifests his attachment
for the people of this region whenever
possible. In his ofBclal acts Eastern
Oregon has not been forgotten. The
chief executive of the state urged
proper division of certain patronage, in
the selection of appointive officers, this
region has been well -remembered by
Governor Geer and grows in his-.atten-
uoji. j ion. s. a. jenni 01 uan'r vnjf
vim a member of the Tpxt-Book Com
mission, a very important body. In
other selections a non-partisan spirit
has '' been manifest, which, perhaps,
leaned toward Eastern Oregon. '
A Model Administration.
Malheur Gazette: The present state
administration has been a model one
in the management of state affairs, and
the economical administration ot the
different state institutions, and can go
before the peopb' without any charge
of mismanagemert or extravagance.
This excel'lnt record will aid not only
In the election . of ; Republicans to the
state offices to be filled this year, but
win aid materially in the county, elec-
tlons alt over ths stte. A fe" months
ago, men rambltiotis for political hon
ors, were very Industrious to have their
names mentioned In connection with
tbej Republican 'nomination for Gover
nor but now, after having felt thepub
llc juls, they are announcing that the
ntenUoning of their r.ames was unau
thorised, and that they never had any
intention of iisking for the nomination.
The5 people -of the. state are well pleas
ed with'Oovernor Geer's administration
and will employ the "farmer Governor'
for another four year. i.
He lis Their Frisnd.
Wheeler County News: Governor
Geer used to liv? In Eastern Oregon,
and he has traveled over nearly every l
portion of Eastern Oregon, and, is ' as
familiar with Its needs a any man
could be who lives in Eastern Oregon.
In his -last biennial messasre to the
legislature we r-;mmber that he was
partial to Eastern Oregon Interests,
especially the scalp botinty law and
other measures whic h he reH-ommend-
ed. -Indeed no itiatt could do more for
Eastern Oregon than has r Governor
Geer. He Is a, good enougn Eastern
Oregon man for Wheeler, county,, and
his party In this county will take no
stock in the attempt to work up sec-
tlonal prejudice to foist
some other
man onto the ticket because be Uvea
fa Eastern Oregon. '-'
r Thty Art Not Sheep.
Union Republican: The Pendleton
Tribune boastingly asserts that W. J.
Furnish1 will deal the Eastern Oregon
delegation to Portland, The Tribuns
must think the people of this great
section are a lot pf sheep. The Repub
lican ' asserts that the delegation from
Eastern Oregon wilt not fall over each
other to do the bidding f Mr. Furnish
or that of any other self -constituted
candidate for office, and they should
not. Delegates are elected to go to the
convention to work for the best Inter
ests of their party and of the state, and
not to further the ambitions of any one
man. Officers are chosen to Serve the
people, and any intimation that the
people are becoming slaves to the dic
tates of an individual is distasteful to
the true American and ought to be to
every true" Republican.
Did Net Down Him.
Union Republican: Over In Marion
county a few aspirants for office, and
ether disgruntled ' Republicans,! have
been making considerable noise telling
through the press bow they were down
ing Governor Geer in his own county.
A few weeks ago, when we were in
Salem, we asked one of the Governor's
friends what so much noise meant. His
reply was : "Oh. it's Just like a pig
under a gate, lots of noise, but it does
n't hurt anybody.? The reWfc of the
primaries last week; proves that the
"pig under the gate" was not counted
at the primaries at all. The Gover
nor's friends carried every one of the
thirty-nine precincts 'with big major
ities. r
A Dsep Laid Schema.
Sumpter Reporter: Hon. W. J. Fur-
nlsh, recently the Democrtic. sheriff of
Umatilla county, was in town yester-j
day, twit gave the Reporter office ' a
wide berth. This did not prevent the
editor from "getting onto" a. deep laid
plan of the Democrats, to obtain con
trol of the executive department of the
state. It Is short and to the point.
Furnish is to secure the 'nomination lor
Gbvernbr. 'Chamberlain will be the
Democratic nominee, and after the
nominations are made the rest is, easy.
No matter which one is elected, the
Democrats will have the Governor.
Such nefarious schemes when once ex
posed are easily defeated, hence this
warning.
The Democratic 8trswMsr.
Union Republican: The more some
of the little Democratic papers have to
say about their "straw maa" lletKland
swindles the more It becomes evident
that they do not know what they are
talking about. -The whole work of these
partisan sheets in this connection is
rlmplyan effort to liscredlt Governor
Geer and other Republican officials. If
any citizen nas violated the law, why
do not some of these' ''patriotic Demo
cratic editors Institute leagl prosecu
tlons? This would settle the matter.
But they are too cowardly for that. It
looks as if they had no Issue and were
trying to make one- for the coming
campaign. j
i . A Pertinent Question. f,
Union Republican: Some of the Ben
ocratlo papers are saying Eastern Ore
gon demands the Governorship and are
urging the Republicans to nominate .an
Eastern Oregon -man and turn down
Governor Geer. While it is true this
part of Che state has not received Just
recognition in the past, yet why are
the Democrats insisting that e Re
publicans go after the Governorship,
end that alone? Is. there some other
reason? Isn't it possible that in such
an act of the Republicans they see
their only show of ejecting a Demo
crat from Western Oregon Governor?
The Bt Man.
.Sumpter Morning Reporter
When
the Republican State Convention meets
we believe Governor Geer wili be" re
nominated. The party could npt make
a better choice. Geer is morse or an
Eastern Oregon man than any who
have yet j been named to succeel him.
His personal acquaintance in Eastern
Oregon is far more extensive. lie has
lived in Eastern Oregon more years and
does and will do more for this part of
the state than any other so-called East
ern Oregon men who are pushing them-
selves for his place.
-Efforts at Sectionalism;
Arlington Record: The question of
who will be the next Goverpor is exc it-.
ing a great deal of comment In the
press of the state in both panties.
There seems to be a strong effort to
array. Eastern and Western Oregon
against each other over this office.
We are unable to see whfere; either sec
tion is to get any advantage by having
the offices of c Governor, beyond what
crumbs might fall here or there.

FROM DEMOCRATIC PRESS.
. . . ' '
, Useless Palaver.
Baker City Democrat: To a casual
observer; to a man up a tree; to one
who is willing to furnish an the rope
necessary for them to hang themselves
with, it does seem that a great deal of
useless palaver Is being Iniulged in by
the Republican press of the state con
cerning the nomination of Banker Fur
nish, of Pendleton, or some other East
ern Oregon man to be Republican can
didate for Governor. It Is true, that
from a: purely Republican, partisan
standpoint Banker Furnish would make
an idea candidate. He passes the . two
necessary Republican . qualification's;
he has & long roll andhe Is willing to
be separated front it. Aside from this
be has no more claims on the guberna
torial claim, than have fifteen or twen
ty thousand other good and useful citi
sens of the commonwealth, except that
he possesses the virtue of having been
a. Democrat up to a few months ago.
But I the long green" owned by Mr.
Furnish has unduly excited the Repub
lican editors and the campaign is now
on. Herein lies the fallacy of it all. Mr.
Furnish might as well keep his hard
earned simoleous; the Republican edi
tors might as well keep their shirts on.
and the entire Republican party of the
state might as well keep cool, because
there is no known quantity In Oregon
politics that can defeat Tat Timothy
Geer in the race for the Republican
nomination. . The "Sage of the Waldo
Hills" can give Mr. Furnish. Mr. Nov
ell or Mr. Fulton, either of themisepar
ately, or all of them combined, cards,
spades and big casino, and then easily
win out. It is Geer8 nomination.
Gubernatoral Timber.
The Dalles Mountaineer: It is sev
era! months yet until the State Conven-
tlons will be held to nominate various
state officers, yet there is a' bevy of
live prominent Republicans who are
already willing to be aerified on the
altar of the. party in the capacity of
nominee for Governor, First, of course,
Is Governor T T. Geer, '. the Marion
county farmer, who desires to succeed
himself. Then comes W. J. Furnish,
the renegade Democrat and Pendleton
banker, who owes everything he ever
attained in politics to the Democratic
party, but Jumped out of that party
Ano the Republican ranks In 1896, and
In 1900 was a Presidential Elector for
McKinley. ' Then comes Jonas VI.
Church, the Union county banker and
president of the Oregon League of Re
publican Clubs. :Henry E. Ankeny, the
Southern Oregon mining man. and bro
ther of Levi, the Walla Walla banker
who wants to be United States Senator
froth Washington, Is also In the race.
and is ready to open his "barrel, pro
vided things come his way. Last but
not least by any means Is Judge Ste
phen A. Loveil, of Pendleton, a bright
lawyer; who has either been after office
or has held official positions at the
hands of the Republican party ever
since he has been lu the state. This
quintet of statesmen does not probably
contain the names of all the gentlemen
who have their own consent to accept
the nomination for .Governor on the
Republican ticket, but it Is a lair start
er to say the least, when It is taken into
consideration that the nominating' con
vention is three months off. ,
Not a Question of Locality
The Dalles Mountaineer: Several of
dur contemporaries, are contending for
a Governor from Eastern jOregon. Their
contention is In a manner commenda
ble, but we fail to see why a Governor
from this section is an absolute neces
sity, or why he would be able or wlH
ling to do more for the Inland Empire:,
than one frotii any other part- of tht
state. The besjt legislation ever enacted
for Eastern Oregon the bill authoriz
ing the construction ot the portage road
at Cascade Locks was enacted while a
Portland man was Governor. It mat
ters little from what section the Gover
nor comes so that he ia-an honest, pa-triotic,TpublIc-sp4rited
citizen.
