was afterwards appointed to the Su-

the Senate refused to confirm him In
conse auence of this scandal. 1t would
seem that this would be lesson ;hat
would teach other cabinet officers to
shun this rock upon which their hopes
and ambitions might be wrecked. But
news now finds the light Of day to the
effect that not only does every head Of q
department have u carriage at public
cost, but nearly every deputy, chief
clerk, and bead Of a bureau has one.
The aggregate annual cost is many
thousands. That for which Williams

The impression is gaining ground
very rapidly that it would be far better
for the people of the state that the
Supreme Court should be made up from
different political parties. The present
court is made up Of a full bench of Re-
ipnblicans, one of whom is to retire next
fall. For these reasons many RepubIi.
cans have signi6ed their intention to
vote for Ex-Governor Thayer who has
been nominated by the Democrats.
Mr.. Thayer is eminently qualified for
this position. His legal attainments
are second to none in the state, and
bis conservatism and Iiberality recon-
mend him to every voter of the state.

THERE'S mUsIC N Tng AIR.


We have often had occasion to say
in these columns that the Republican
party is in the hands of rings and fac.
tionS who seek to, and do control and
manipulate the party organization for
purposes of personal sggrandisement,
and that the better element of tie
party Is utterly powerlsss to shake off
the burden that weighs them down.
This is very clearly shown in the ticket
nominated BY the ring Republicans in
Multnomah last Saturday. This ticket
was cut and dried month ago, and
was given to the public then by the
Welcoms and other Independent papers.
And now this ticket is openly denoun-
ced by the North Vest Neacs, the stall
wart Republican paper of Portland.
Preparations are already being made to
put An Independent ticket in the field
by the more decent aud intelligent part
of the Republican party in that county.
It's very happy family.
