THE WEEKLY MrssAcE.-Wc OBJ
serve an clitolial headed "explana natory"
in the first number ola pocket edition of
the 7. Tribune called The Weekly Mes
sage" and purporting to be published in
Port Townsend. in which its "cat's paw"
editor is made to give the reason why he
supports Flanders rather than Clark. The
idea of boy who is scarcely out Of his
diapers, staggering about "thc true prin-
ciples of Democracy which ,ce have i'm
bibcd from youth up" we understand is SO
highly appreciated by his father, that lie
contempla;es giving the youngster hearty
spanking upon his return from among the
swiue into whose company he, like another
who started upon his travels at too early
an age, has fallen. AS for the deep con-
victions of duty to his country under which
this new convert seems to be laboring, We
have been told by Delegate to the Dem.
ocra,c Vancouver Convention, who resides
in Olympia, and the initials of whose name
arc II. Il. McElroy, tha: Immediately after
Clark's nomination he was approached by
this conscientious supporter Of the Demo-
cratic party" who after enquiring whether
or not the Democrats would publish a
campaign pap,r in Port Townsend,
said that if they did he wanted a chance.
"Nrpl" of the Ir;Lanc says that the
statement that Flanders joined the Good
Tcmplars and then fell from grace, is a
"Copperhcad lic," and that no has not
"hcard Of his doing so, except upon Cop
perhcad report. which he would not believe
under oath" Now Ncph., you know you
are lying about this matter. You do know
from ''loyar' report that he did join the
Good Tcmplars at Portland on the Goth of
April last, while on his way to canvass the
Sound country. and you do know by
'loyal" report from persons innumerable,
who were eye witnesses to the fact, that
Flanders did drink "iikc fish," as one
of them expressed it. while here in Olym-
pia. Oh what great liar your politics
has made you! If you keep on at these
lcks your testimony would not be taken
in Siwash whisky case unless corrobora-
ted by nn Indian.
