THE nomination of E. R. Lake
as joint representative of Benton
and Lincoln counties, came as a
very agreeable surprise. He was
the choice of both delegations,
Lincoln county presenting no
candidate. Mr.. Lake is life
long republican, prominent hor-
ticulturist, an intelligent, wide
awake gentleman; a man of good
address, a capable business man,
and an eloquent and convincing
speaker. Mr.. Lake would be a
progressive man in the interest
of economy in the Legislature
and will be an efficient aid in
putting the business affairs of the
state upon business basis. He
is an ad1nirer of Senator Mitch
ell, and believes that he should
be returned to the United States
senate.

REPUBLICAN RESOLUTIONS.

At the republican county convention
several resolutions were adopted but were
omitted last week in the write-up of the
proceedings, owing to lack ofspace. The
first resolution adopted was one protest
ing against state aid for normal or high
schools, and also against appropriations
for the maintenance of benevolent or
sectariau institutions, The other resolu-
tons adopted were: -~.-
Resolved, That it is the sense of this
convention, that all county officers should
perform all the duties of their respective
Offices, for the salary as stated by law.
furnishing deputy hire at their own ex-
pense, except in extraordinary cases
where the preservation of peace and or
der requires a large amount of deputy
help.
Be it Resolved:
First-That it is the sense of this con-
vention, that the depressed condition of
country, and the shrinkage of values are
wholly due to the democratic free trade
policy. and therefore we demand the ell
actnent of high protective tariff laws,
so regulated ard adjusted that it shall
effect alike our commerce, our agricul-
ture and Oar manufacture.
Second-We favor the construction of
the Nicaragua canal, and that it should
be controlled by our government.
Third-We are in favor of a rigid en-
forcemeut of the Monroe doctrine by the
government.
Fourth-We are in favor of an econom-
ical administration of the state govern
ment, and demand that the salaries of all
state officers be kept within the letter Of
the constitution.

wonder the Times wants to start
the people off on a false trail.
The ilsinuation that the repub-
lican ticket is an A. P. A. ticket
is false. The covert claim that
the majority of the men On the
ticket belong to that organization
is also a lie. The republican
convention was free, open body.
There was a small proportion of
A. P. A. S present, as was also the
casein the democratic convention.
There was not a hint nor a sus-
picion of any concerted action on
their part. The result of the
convention was simply an ex-
preston of the popular will.
There were no Tanmany bosses
with an eye on the barrel to
scheme and plot in order to put
popular but independent candi-
dates out of the way. Itwas not
an A. P. A. convention, not a
Tammany convention; not a
Catholic convention. 1t was a
convention of American voters
who believe in the principles ot
the republican party, and it was
one of, the most representative
republican conventions ever held
in the county.
If there are any candidates or
the republican ticket who are
there as candidates of the A. P.
A., they will have to fight thei1
own battles. The GAZETTE is q
republican paper, and intends
supporting the republican no1ni.
nees. 1t knows no other politics
than republicanis1n. The mere
accusation of a Talnnany follow.

of a candidates disloyalty to the
party.
The sincerity of our indepen
dence can be attested by glance
at Our advertising columns
Where do the A. P. A. busines:
men advertise? In the GAZETTE
No. In the Times? Yes.

THE action of the republican
state convention on the matter
of the contesting Multnomah
delegations, was severe con-
demnation of the Oregonian and
its political methods. A major
ity Of the country delegates went
to Portland determined to seat
the Simon delegates, believing
that the reports of the Oregonian,
their only source of information,
were correct. But when the mat
ter was up for consideration, and
it was shown that the decent vo-
ters of the Simon crowd that the
Oregonian Dragged about, were
hired thugs, toughs and crimi-
mails, and the testimony of such
d inan as George H. Williams,
denouncing the Simon primary
and convention methods, proved
the Oregonian to be but the mis-
cradle hired sheet of Portland
ward heelers. The Oregonian had
better learn honest political me-
thods before it attempts to teach
people about an honest dollar.

WHAT ABOUT THE A. P. A.

Democratic duplicity often
overreaches itself. With ire
mendious pains the democratic
leaders in Benton county loaded
their guns for the campaign with
packages of powder marked A,
p. A. TIE 7 ley trained these guns
against the republican ticket, ap-
piled the pseudo-delegate match
and listened for the big explosion.
Alas and alack, the tnuzzle was
in the breech and the tiger is
scorched!
The democratic organ in Ben
ton county does not, editorially,
charge that the republican conven-
ton was controlled by the A. P.
A. organization. Neither does it
editorially condemn the A. P. A.
There are reasons, of course, for
this editorial silence. That pa
per, however, publishes long COM
munications from pretended del
egates to the republican conven-
ton, in which the howl about
the A. P. A's controlling the con-
vention is loudly set up. OF
course the Times is not response
bic for the utterances of its cor
RESPONDENTS. Of course the DEM
ocratic party is not. Of course
the democratic A. P. AIS are not
supposed to take offense at these
communications. Of course,
also, republican Catholics are to
swallow this tempting bait, thus
prepared by Tarnmany bosses,
and vote for a continuance Of
Tammany control. A pretty
scheme; but are there fools
enough in Benton county to make
it work?
Should A. P. Aism be an issue
In the politics of this county!
Decidedly not. The republican
party does not recognize any secret
organization as a political pow.
er, or as political issue. 1t ask:
no questions of its candidates a:
to their affiliations with churche:
or societies. If a man attempt:
to force himself upon the party
because of his connection with
the Masons, the Odd Fellows, the
A. P. IS, the Workmen, or any
other society; or because he is {
Methodist, a Catholic, Or a Pres
byterian, will be efectually sal
upon. But if he comes into the
convention simply as an Ameri.
can and republican, the ques.
ton of ''to what society ht
belongs?" or "what religion he
professes?" is not taken into con
sideration.
1t is the democrats who are at
tempting to make A. P. Aism al
issue. and they are trying to car
ry water on both shoulders. Free
Americans abhor such an issue
and will have none of it. The
fight is between republicans, pop
ulists and democrats. The prin.
cipal issue in national matters is
the tariff question. In local af
fairs the chief political issue is
one of party supremacy, and nc

Butterine Manufacturers Likely TO Get
Out of Trouble.

Here is something which ought not
only to interest every grocer or other
dealer who sells butterine, but many
householders, especially among the mid
die and lower classes, as well. II is semi
authoritatively stated, and apparently
borne out in fact, that the troubles OF
the Vermont Manufacturing Company, so
far as the recent conflict with the in
ternal revenue department 10 concerned,
are about over. In truth, it is understood
that the company has made acceptable
overtures and Collector Byxbec, District
Attorney German and President Tilling-
hast are more than half way toward an
amicable agreement. Furthermore, it is
understood that the various wrjts served
on the butterine people, amounting TO
something like 60, will be quashed and
never come TO trial. That is, it all depends
now upon the action of the officials In
Washington. At all events, President
Tillinghast is said to be in Philadelphia,
District Attorney German was away
when The NEWS man tried to verify the
report, and Collector Byxbee has his
headquarters in Hartford, SO be could
not be seen. In the meantime the Yer
mont Manufacturing Company is

stand on Jackson street.

Finding Of Jury in Pearl
Bryan Murder Case.
Scott Jackson is Found Guilty
of the Awful Crime.
He Hears His Doom Without Any
Outward Show of Emotion.

NEWPORT, KY, May 14.-The Scott
Jackson case went to the Jury at lr
o'clock this morning. Before retiring thu
judges typewriter instructions, bloody
clothes, letters and other articles that
were shown in evidence were placed In
their hands.
AT 12:05 the jury returned to the court
with verdict. Amid death-like sill
ence, the foreman handed the verdict to
the clerk who read as follows:
"We, the jury, find the defendant,
Scott Jackson, guilty of murder in the
first degree, and fix his penalty at death.n
The judge had previously announced
that no demonstration of approval or dis
approval by spectators would be permit
ted. Deputies were placed throughout the
room with instructions TO bring before
the court a1y person disobeyIng these
instructions. Consequently, the verdict
was heard with silence, but Immediately
upon the adIounrmept OF court, the spec
tators rushed to the jurors ana shook
their hands heartily. They also shook
each other by the hand, showing appro-
val OF the verdict of the jury.
Jackson himself received his doom
with no manifestation OF emotion except
an ashen paleness of the face. None Of
his relatives were present. The aged father
of Pearl Bryan and her brother, Fred
Bryan, were present when the verdict was
rendered.
The usual motion for new trial was
made and then Jackson was taken away
to jail He had been surrounded by q
half cozen or more officers when the fury
cane IN, and went out under their protec-
tion, although there was no demonstra
tion to indicate necessity for 90 much
care
