and bimlinjr (Hu Inlti'r bi'ing n very Hinnll item) will be increased wlien tlu ilefleits to lie ninde up bv the legislature are all in by about ten thousand dollars. There must be charged to the state printing ex pense the salary of the expert accountant under the direction of the secretary of state who gets from 7")() to $1000 a year, another item of ?:()00. There must he charged to the expense of the state printing ollice the biennial legislative investigation of that ollice (a rotten whitewash) that costs about 201)0, or four thousand dollars more. So that the taxpayer is bleached out of about for ty thousand dollars per annum for the state printing ollice. Allowing ."000 for white paper and 15,000 for labor in printing ollice and bindery, the 20,000 a year goes to the olllce-hohlers and Mr. F. ('. linker. On a flat salary system with the work done in commercial olllces the state printing would cost the people as follews: Salary of printer four years, 2."()0 a year . . .10,000 Printing and binding fur four years, estimated 00,000 5rand total under salary system for four years 70,000 Saving of salary plan over present system 8:1.000 If the state printing ollice were put on a salary the experts and legislative whitewashings would be unnecessary. The state printer would not have to lease the ollice of Mr. K. linker. The work would lie done in union printing olllces at fair union scale of wages, and not as at present, when there is a rush for work, at any old rat printing ollice. 'Phis ureal reform in the state printing ollice can only be brought about by defeating the Republican candidate, Mr. Whitney, and electing Mr. dodfrey, the Democratic nominee. You may say Mr. dodfrey is on the wrong ticket, but there is no political significance to the ollice, ex cept the present boodle there is in it. 'IM. ...... :.. .... ..II..,,. ,....1. .. K......1.

Keady want him elected, as they say, because he is the regular Republican nomi nee. "We do not blame these gentlemen for wanting Mr. Whitney elected, or for working for the Republi can party for all there is in it for themselves. Hut the people who are not working for the d. (). 1 for all there is in it should not be worked. If the people who read and understand the sig nificance of the above figures will vote for Mr. dod frey he will be elected, and the graft will be broken. If they elect Mr. Whitney they must not complain when they have had greater burdens of taxation heaped upon them. They have no reason to expect anything else from a continuance of the present system. 0 Inconsistencies of the Great Reformer of Oregon ff -OLLOWIXd is from Hditor Scott's pen of February 2.", 1001. lie was then roasting the very faction that he is now operating with for having passed a fraudulent pri mary law, by which he and this same crowd he then denounced carried Multnomah county for Furnish: "The direct primary law passed by the legisla ture is a fraud on its face. The plank in the Citizens' platform was merely to get in on. The reason for this betrayal of popular reform is, of course, that the outs who go in expect next time to be the ins. The Mitchell party knows that when it comes to make up its ticket for the election of 1002, direct primary nominations vould only be an impediment in the way of its pur pose. When they have decided who is to be the sena tor in Simon's place, and governor and mayor and sherilV, and so on along down the line, it would be a matter or grave peril to turn the whole thing over to the rank and Hie to disarrange. Hence, we have direct primary laws that do not enact direct primaries. "What is the result? Why the result is Hint a year from this spring, we shall have a set of Simon delegates and a set of Mitchell delegates, and the Re publicans can come to the primaries and choose be tween them, and the machine will do the rest. II would have been more to the credit of the reformers if they had refrained from oll'ering this gold brick to the people in the name of reform. Whose intelligence did they estimate low enough to be deceived by it?" JUST EXACTLY WHAT SCOTT I'KHDKTFI) HAS 11F10X ACCOM PUSH HI) HY 1IIM! Let us hear the opinion expressed by the same fac tion lie has now joined hands with. The following is from a circular by Mays, Hunt, Willis, Matthew's, et al., during the 1000 campaign : "The Citizens' legislative ticket will forever put an end to the Orcgonian receiving :iS,2ir.SI for pub lishing the delinquent tax list : It will insure the en actment of the Ilinghani Primary Law. "The Qregonian, desiring to IMOKPFITATF ITS GRAFT, will swing the parly lash and will seek to drive through all opposition to the Mnekay-dlass ticket. It will cry out that the salvation of the whole country depends upon electing the RIN'd T1CICFT. It will use invectives, sarcasm and ridicule. It will use persuasion, artifice and lies. It will PROMISF ALLTIIIXC.STOALLMIOX. It will pledge the ring ticket to the 1XITIATIVH and RFFIORFXDl'M to catch Populist voles. It will pledge the ring ticket to support FRIOF SILVFR to catch the Democratic vote. In short it will promise IOVIORYTIIIXd TO KYIOKYIIODY, but woe unto the man who expects it to keep its promises." Is not this a delightful interchange of compli ments between bosom friends? Men who are so insin cere with each other will never he sincerely in favor of any reform they may profess to favor of the people. The Orcgonian of April :!. lS'.ll!, had (his estimate of the faction that made the present Republican tickel: "It was quite a notable primary election. The line work was done under direction of Hon. Sol llirsch. The gross, dirty work was done under the direction of Hume ami his compeers. The money was furnished partly by Senator Mitchell through '! the Southern Pacific railroad, and partly by Ilia 'LOCAL dAXd.' It took a great deal of skill AilfJ a large amount of money to produce the result" hi' Urjl wards carried by the combine. The problem off ha day was to carry the primary election through m struclion at the polls, through the imported and hljfi rabble, and at the same time shut out actual citizmis. Jn several wards if succeeded." February P.), 1807, the Orcgonian said of the man whom Scott now praises and hopes to occupy a seal in ' the. Fniled States Senate alengside: "Only remove out of the way the man thaHuis" corupled and debauched (he public life of Oregon for THIRTY YFARS, who has kept the political llfpf;; 1. , flic state in turmoil all of this time, who has been$hlfv , l FOFXTAIX AX I) SOFRC10 from which LQ ' I DMAS and MISCHIHYors PCRPOSFS and pt-ftV j '. I ices have sprung, tainting not only the political life : of the stale, but tending to make private conduct, ! ' MFRCIOXARY, FALS10, YICIOFS and CO.RRUPT. ' Remove him out of the way, there will be opportunity for organization of the legislature and something ljfte. decent and disinterested action in the affairs oj" Ore gon. What is it (hat takes such men as Minlo, Ward, Denny, Carey and many more to Salem and k1fps ' them there? Everybody knows." " ; Here is his estimate of his present associates in the Republican parly: $ There can be no deliverance front the push of the 1 rained bauds of mercenaries, organized grtjT and pursuit of spoils, until the consuinmae' inaster of mercenary politics shall be finally relfrcd. " fliouul ' $,' he has met with a great reverse now, I here is no doubt. f J thai al the head of HIS ItAXD OF MtiRCICXAl'n FS he will make further attempts. The necessity 'of meeting Ihcnt promises some continuance of stir in our local politics." All men are guilty of inconsistencies at. times, but surely none so great as the present pntft-tunsl'or ftf ' Republican politics in Oregon.
