The Cancer has denied repeatedly
that Banks buttonholed candidates for
nomination asking them to support
his temperance resolutions. Banks
has denied the same thing from his
pulpit. Now comes Thomas P. Orwell,
who says he il willing to make oath,
If necessary, that young Messenger, Of
Brush Prairie, called him into the
presence Of Banks, before the repub-
lican county convention was held, and
said Banks read said resolutions to
him, and demanded that he should
support them In convention and carry
them out in the legislature II elected.
Mr.. George Hitchcock and Mr.. Mes
ssngsr were witnesses to this. How
will Banks and Daniels now manage to
crawl out from under this?

One of the jurors at the recent term
OF court held at Goldendale has pub
lished Communication in the Kick
itat Sentinel, in which he goes for N.
H. Bloomfield heavily, accusing him
of neglect of duty, wilful dictation, and
bad treatment Of the jury. In conclu-
sion the juror says: "Our opinion Of
the matter is, that as usual he was
anxious to get home, and was regard
less enough of his duty, or small
enough to attempt to further his own
interests at the expense of the county
and few individuals" This is not
the first time such complaints have
reached the public of this officers act
ions. If he neglects his duties in court
he will also neglect his duties in the
legislature. A man who is putting up
jobs in everything he is connected
with is not safe man to send to the
legislature or to be put into any pub
lie Office whatever, hence the people
of this county rs we'll as those Of
Klickitat will support J. B. Landrum
for joint representative.

The Vancouver Register, edited by
Bloomfield, Daniels & Co., Attorneys
at Law, etc., pays kind of left handed
compliment to Hon. II. o. Dunbar, the
Republican candidate for Prosecuting
Attorney of that district, by pronounc-
ing him meet to Bloomfield, the most
prominent and able lawyer in the dis
trict. Judge Dunbar is second to no
lawyer in his district, either in point
of character or ability; but to set him
down as second to the senior editor of
the Registers numerous editorial staff
is, to say the least, modest mode of
footing ones own horn.--Sprague Her.

n. II. Bloomfield has tumbled to
the racket, and tries to defend him.
self in an open letter published in the
Cancer. He there boasts ofhaving re-
ceived a majority for prosecuting at
torney two years ago of 229 in the same
district in which Brents had SIS ma
jority, and seems to feel proud of it
probably because he had q majority
at all. Now, having the assurance to
bea candidate for the legislature where
in that same election each county cast
a majority against him, Clarke 81, Ska
mania Is, Klickitat 1876, he boldly as
serts that he shall he elected anyhow.
He ia sure of it, but no one else seems
to be sure oft. Mr.. Bloomfield further
states that he ''has no axe to grind"
when he gets to the legislature, but in
the same breath tells US that he is GO
ing to restore the U. s. Court to Van
ceuver; to amend the road laws; to
amend the bridge laws; to amend the
the city charter; ITO amend the Sum-
day law, II possible, practically, fairly
and equally upon ALL" and he pro-
poses to do various things for the glory
of Clarke county, the other counties
In the district being left out Of his cal
culations. He In fact makes bid for
everybedy's vote, after his usual style,
by promising anything and every
thing. No one but political trick
ster would openly promise the people
that he wonld fix up the Sunday law

dels, the church members, the tenn
perance people and the saloon keepers,
all at one and the same time. AS o

When Byron Daniels says in his
ring organ that the republican county
convention was convention repre-
senting either the party or the people
of Clarke county he is simply trying
to deceive the public. 1t was only a
convention gotten up by his little
church temperance clique. Did not
l.. A. Banks ride nearly the whole
county over in speaking and setting
up the primaries to send as delegates
to that convention just such men as
he and Daniels could handle? Did
they not get Vancouver precinct d.
vided just on purpose to secure por-
ton of the city delegation that might
be depended on to do theix bidding?
Did they not by using these temper
ance delegates they had thus secured
defeat Henry Christ, Thos. P. Orwell,
Robt. Robb and others in the conven-
ton because they would not assent to
Banks resolutions? Every one knows
they did these things, and yet Banks,
Bloomfield and Daniels deny that
such work is either bossing or machine
work. That is the name such work
goes by elsewhere, and as such it will
be sat down upon here.

Bloomfield and Daniels have re-
tanned Brother s. r. Whipple as their
political servant and striker, in place
of John r. Eaton, who has removed
from the county. Brother Whipple is
the champion button-holer of this
county, and will no doubt do the dirty
work OF his masters with neatness and

"A meeting of the Clarke County Re-
publican Central Committee was called
to be held in Vancouver on Monday.
We are informed on good authority
that the purpose of that meeting was
to force ]. HI. Timmens, and Helm
Kulper off from the so-called repub-
lican ticket if they had been endorsed
in any way by the Peoples convention.
The ring organ has already manifested
hostility to these candidates by refus-
ing to give them favorable mention.
These same candidates were advised
weeksago to withdraw from that ticket,
as they had no business there. Now
they are getting their reward for stay
ing with it, and in all probability will
be sold out by the balance of the ticket
wherever opportunity offers. Had they
been thrown overheard, Byron DAN
iels would still maintain that he does
not do any bcssing.
The Vancouver independent. (Vancouver, W.T. [Wash.]) 1875-1910, 1882-10-19

Byron Daniels in the ring organ
says, 'If boilers, sore-heads and hood
lums want him, (Chas. Brown), for
auditor, and unfortunately have the
votes to elect him, he will continue to
be auditor" Daniels does not say in
this exactly what he means, and he
has so much writing to do just now
that he cannot be expected to say at
all times just exactly what he does
mean. He knows perfectly well that
if Chas. Brown is reelected County
Auditor it will be chiefly by the votes
of the Peoples party. Therefore it
is not alone the republican supporters
and friends of Chas. Brown, but all the
Peoples party that he designates as
boilers, sore-heads, hoodlums and the
rabble. The Peoples party now or
ganized in the interest flair elections,
and to put a stop to the political job
work of the machine ring, is repre-
scented by such men as Hon. Louis
Sohns, Hon. B. F. Shaw, Hon. w. H.
Dillon, Henry Christ, B. L. Morrison,
H. C. Blackwood, ]. E. G. Durgan, d.

Winter, d. F. Schusle, DIR. David
Wall, and hundreds of other equally
good citizens whom we could name,
all of them men of intelligence and
possessed of property as well as hon
esty of principles in every respect.
And these are the men whom Byron
Daniels delights in designating as
boilers, sore-heads, hoodlums, and the
ra6ble. His impudence in this is only
equaled by his political venality. And
why does he apply these opprobrious
epithets to our best and most influen-
tial citizens? Simply because they do
not support the little church temper
ance clique of which Banks, Bloom
field and Daniels are the head, in their
self imposed task of running Clarke
county. This is very neighborly con-
duct on the part of Byron Daniels, and
the people thus traduced will proba-
bly, remember it as long as the Catho-
lie citizens of the county will remem-
Der his uncalled for assaults and abuse
of six years ago. The 10th century is
altogether too far advanced for Banks,
Bloomfield and Daniels to attempt
with a club to drive voters into their
net. The people are not to be driven
to vote the machine ring ticket by
either the party lash or the fear of
contemptuous treatment on the part
of these would-be leaders. The peo-
pie possess a sovereign power of their
own, which they have no hesitation
in putting forth to put down the men,
who would use the public service only
to further their personal desires and
make their little clique the ruling
power.

One of our valued exchanges says:
"There is no doubt that the republican
defeat in Ohio is due to the action of
the ultra temperance people who, by
partial control of the conventions and
the attachment of their peculiar and
impracticable ideas to the party plat
form, drove away from the republican
ranks very large number of voters
who have heretofore supported the
party. Nor is this the first time that
such results have followed like causes.
Nor will it be the last. If the repub-
lican party will attempt by some
practicable means to lessen the evils
of the use of intoxicating liquors, it
will find the people coming forward to
its support most willingly, but il it
wants to find itself in the minority,
let it inaugurate the tactics of the un-
reasonable and radical element of So
ciety which has led the party in Ohio
into such overwhelming defeat"
Such paragraphs as the above are
met with in almost every exchange we
pick up. The truths stated are almost
self-evident, and everywhere we find
condemnation of the policy which the
Banks Bloomfield Daniels element
have forced upon the people of Clarke
county. The people>of this county
willset down on them quite as forci-
bly, as the people of Ohio have on
similar element.

The state has gone democrat tic by

congressman out of 81. The losses of
republican congressman in Ohio, with
those sure to be lost in Indiana, and

The Best Man in Burke Oonntv

Not long since a traveller on our rail-
road, fully half flooded, stepped off the
train at the depot, and approached our
venerable Marshal, who was standing
near, and declared himself the best man
in Burke county The Marshal assent
ed that he might be. But" said the
traveller, 81 am the best man in Waynes-
boro.' Again the Marshal assented,
and thus failing to get up a row, the
irate traveller came down to PERSONAL
ties by saying, 81 am better man than
you are, sir,' The Marshal gave him
a cool look, and replied, you may be
a stronger man than l am, but | here
hold the strongest position" GLOW
