so many. occasions such trivial
thing, to influence the voters of
this county. Is that sincere
journalism, meant in good faith
to benefit the public? We are
satisfied to leave the public to
Judge whether they will be hum
bugged by such chaff or not.
The leaders of the democratic
party in this county have con-
tinuously urged upon the con-
sideration of the public trashy
stuff, published and circulated
about opposing candidates, to
deceive the voter, when in fact
the facts related amounted to
nothing but a great noise, so
far as the public was concerned.
Every democrat and populist,
as we'll as every republican,
should be interested sufficiently
to see that such insincere politi-
cal work should cease. If they
will vote and elect the republi-
can ticket, it will put the stamp
of condemnation upon that un-
holy quality of journalism and
political methods.
The tact remains undisputed
that Mr.. Gellatly has most ex-
cellent qualities to make one of
the best county clerks which
Benton has ever had, as shown
by his good and popular services
as recorder of this county. He
has been raised from childhood
in Benton county. His family
haye always been good citizens
and taxpayers of the county for
many years. The name of Gel
latly has always stood for hon
esty, integrity and for outspoken
frankness, free from any faint OF
deception. It will be re1nem-
bered that Mr.. Gellatly has twice
run for Office in this county and
he has steadily refused and now
refuses to encourage his friends
to circulate any tales or matters
1ehecting upon his political op-
ponent. Mr.. Gellatly expects te
be elected On his own merits.
The Times cannot say anything
against Mr.. Gellatly's good quail
ties as public officer, and there
fore gives the voters subterfuge
and deception to draw attention
from the important question.

How 1t Happeeed.

We do not desire to do any jockeying,
and greatly prefer that intending pur-
chasers carefully consider the matter. but
if you have any notion of piano or organ
you should be glad to buy of us such
goods as we have and at such prices as We
are anxious to sell them We can now
give you larger and finer selection than
has ever been shown here before, and it
may be many day again before another
such line drops in In fact only one car
load was intended for this place to be
left with Mr. Lowther, while we personal
ly intended to sell the other carload at
another point further south But our
farm work will not permit of our absence,
even for short time, so we dropped both
cars close to our Polk county home
Come right along and finish up the
deals and there will be many happy peo-
pie in this ueighborhood

the following: The Corvallis

Skeels, the Demo-Pop candidate
for the lower house of the legis-
lature from Benton county: "He
is himself a living platform, on
whose face is written. in indelible
lines, the words, Honesty, in
telligence, sincerity" Chester
Skeels must have great face.

back, when several living plat

written over their honest faces,
organized themselves into a he
harem in Salem and refused to
take the oath of office.

The Times soon after the
county nominations were made
pretended a desire to avoid "mud-
"but has..ever since hunt
ed for a chance and at this early
date it has thrown the mud and
been SO completely driven in a
hole that it questions the veracity
of the democratic leaders in the
lower house of congress, Mr..
Dockery and Mr.. Catchings, for
speaking the truth as to Mr..
Tongues conduct in favoring va
quina bay. These two lifelong
democrats have been in congress
for nearly 1o years and they have
a national reputation.

A public newspaper owes to
the public more than anything
else TO speak the ''truth and
nothing but the TRUTH" and one
which publishes truth in such a
colorado way that the public
may be misled thereby, is similar
to the individual who spends his
life assembling and playing
with the words of truth to mis-
lead his neighbor and soon be-
comes so that those best ac-
quainted with the devices en-
ployed do not expect anything
but deception and untruth from
the source.

NEEDS NO DEFENSE.

The Corvallis Times assumes
that this paper has said some
thing ''in defense" of J. A. Gel
latly, present candidate for coun-
ty clerk, which is another great
mistake in the forlorn hope of
that great journal. Mr.. Gellatly
needs no defense at the hands of
this paper. The only object in
noticing what the Times said
is to show with what amusing
ehild-1ike simplicity it prints
"little fairy stories'' relating to
its neighbors and endeavoring
to color them so as to east insinu-
ations and inuendoes in the hope
that its readers may be misled
as to the true nature of the facts
related. These flights of fancy
published in connection with
such public matters are intended
to mislead and to influence and
and change so solemn a matter
as the peoples vote.
Suppose Mr. Gellatly did go
to Eastern Oregon to better his
Financial condition. or to
''make money" Suppose he
did make ''good or bad invest
ments' or lease the t'Golden
Eagle hotel with its fine sample
rooms," and sold these interests
and returned to Benton county,
or bought forty acres of land near
Sumpter. What about it? What
is the Times going to do about
it? What harm did this do any
one? Mr.. Gellatly went to
Eastern Oregon, and returned a
republican. If Mr.. Gellatly had
returned, as others have, Topped
over as a democrat, and ever
afterward turned his tongue and
pen to befouling the good name
and motives of his former politi-
cal associates, he would have
been a good fellow according to
his present traducer's estimate
of political manhood.
The Times, in three distinct
articles on three several occasions,
referring to Mr.. Ge1lat1y, has
made use of the words, Golden
Eagle hotel, with fine sample
rooms" +" If the Times wishes to
be candid with the public about
an important matter, why does
it not explain what it, means by
such expressions? Every hotel
considers that its best trade
comes from commercial travelling
men, who go from town to town
carrying their samples of dry
goods, boots, shoes, hats, cloth
ing, etc., with them to sell by
wholesale to merchants in coun-
try towns, and in order to ac-
commodate such travelling mer-
chants, we'll regulated hotels
have sample rooms where these
travellers can spread out and
show their samples of goods to
the town merchants, whom they
wish to secure as purchasers.
Such is the only sample room
the hotel had. What a great
ado about nothing to publish on
