DANGER OF OCEAN WRECKS.

1t is stated that the Atlantic ocean
contains may wrecked vessels which
drift hither and thither. and as their
positions change with the winds and
tides. they are constant menace to
ocean traffic. Because Of the great ex-
pense they are not destroyed until they
have inflicted actual damage. How
like this is the action OF many per-
sons. who wait until they are Ill be-

The independent candidates win
count for but little. Nearly all Of
them, 80 far, are men who have been
kicked out Of every recognized party
and are beggarr on the political high
way for any crumbs that may fall from
either or any Of the party tables. The
average voter has TO confidence in the
independent candidate. He knows
that in nine cases out OF ten
he has made every endeavor to
get on a party ticket and very Justly
argues that II his party considered him
unworthy Of a nomination. the inde-
pendent candidate is not worthy Of his
vote. How much more Is this true in
the case Of an independent candidate
who has been Kicked out by all the
parties, having been everything and
nothing for the sake Of political job?

IicanS need not greatly fear the inde-

The tendency to avoid discussing
charges Of ring, etc, leaving 1t to
the opposition to charge and the re-
publicans to content themselves with
simple denial, has been a mistake in
the past that should be avoided in the
future. Everybody knows of the
charges Then why should not the can
didates meet them boldly and disprove
them? For that matter, they should
not even wait to be charged with be-
ing connected with an imaginary
ring" but make 1t clear that
they come to the voters with clean
hands and on their own merits.
The republicans of Clatsop county
are not going TO have a walk over"
for their legislative and county ticket
this year.
Neither are they in danger of de-
feat, with proper work on the part
of the candidates and party leaders.
The ticket will be elected without
trouble If the proper effort is put
forth. but that certain conditions ex-
list this year that have not existed
heretofore. that these conditions tend to
count against republican success in
this county, is a matter of fact which,
while in no way presaging defeat, calls
for serious consideration in order that
the obstacles may be met and over
come. There is no use shutting the
eyes to plain facts. The greater the
obstacle, the greater the effort need
ed-that is all.
Nothing must be taken for granted
by the republican candidates this year.
If the men on the ticket work together
to the end. they will surely win. but
it is no year for individual campaigns
or shirking any Of the hard work the
opposition is sure to cut out for all
Of the republican nominees.
