After a debate of FIVE hours,

After debate of five hours,
the house concurred last Wednes-
day in the senate amendment to
the Puerto Rican bill, by vote
of 161 to 153, and the measure
went to President Mckinley for
his signature. When the people
see this much maligned measure
in operation and come to under
stand it, it will be pronounced
one of the wisest and most gen.
erous bills ever passed by con-
gress. Its object is to afford rev.
enue for the islands and not to
"protect" the United States
against Puerto Rico. None of the
critics of the bill have offered any
other means of affording revenue
for the islands, more just or prac-
teal.

The Republican County Conven-
ton of Benton County, on last Sat-
urday, finished their labors after
nominating a complete ticket. The
several candidates nominated are
long and respected residents of the
county, favorablY known and thor
oughly we'll qualified for the duties
of the respective Offices. It is not
possible for everyone to get
his favorite nominated for posi-
ton, but there is no reason for any
person to hesitate to vote for the
ticket, because had others been
nominated instead their qualifca-
tions to discharge, properly, the
duties of the Office might not have
been any better than those nomin-
ated. The defeated candidate in a
political convention who cheerfully
and sincerely acquieses in the NOM
ination of his more successful rival
shows highly commendable quail
tiles in any man.

One of the most deplorable con-
ditions of American politics is the
conduct of many of the newspapers
and individual members of oppos-
ing parties, after candidates are
nominated for office to. continue
through the campaign preceding
the election a persistent and con-
tinuous practice of communicating
defamatory stories regarding the
character and integrity of opposing
candidates. That members of So
ciety and neighbors shall meet
socially and transact business to-
gether pleasantly for nearly all the
intervening time between elections.
and as soon as one is nominated to
run for an Office, his neighbor or To-
cal newspaper shall begin attacks
upon his life and conduct, is prac.
tice that should be condemned by
every good citizen. This paper will
endeavor to abstain from the class
of Journalism indicated, prefering
that its efforts shall be conducted
as business enterprise, and not
used as political machine to ma.
lign its neighbors, simply because
they happen to be serving the pub
lie by running for Office. In SO do
ing we will not forget or neglect te
support and maintain republican
doctrines and report the passing
events Of the day in a reliable man
ner, and at all times thus be 8
helpful instrument for the public
good.
