ANDREW J. JACKSON.

Andrew J. Jacksonville name sounds
good to democrat is the democratic
candidate for sheriff, and those who
know him best vouch for the statement
that his election would give Chehalit
county the best sheriff it ever had, and
his appearance gives belief to the asser'
ton.
Andrew j. Jackson is Pacific Coast
product, having first seen the light Of
day in Coos county, Oregon in 1860. He
was raised and received his education in
South western Oregon, where he was en-.
gagged in the hotel business for number
of years.
Next Sheriff Jackson came to Wash.
ington in the spring OF 1898, locating at
Hoquiam, where he remained until a
year ago where he purchased farm at
Wynooche, near Montesano, which he is
now engaged in cultivating, and resides
with his family. A vote for Andrew
Jackson for sheriff will insure the cleo.
ton of capable official as peace execu-
tive OF Chehalis county.

zen should align himself with the party

respecting citizen will BELONG to party
in the sense of being owned by it, nor
will he assign his franchise to few self

That few persons in the republican
party in this county carry the votes of
that party in their pockets, has long
been matter of common talk and belief.
This has been maze a certainty Of late
through the struggle for supremacy be-
tween the would-be custodians of the
republican votes OF Chehalis county, as
will be seen by the following article
clipped from the Daily Bulletin of Sep
TENDER 2:
ave presume it is legitimate for Benin,
and Anstie, and Hood, and Sherwood,
to meet secretly and parcel out the coun.
ty offices on the republican ticket among
themselves and their adherents; it is
probably legitimate from their point OF
view to secure the appointment of deputy
assessors who will manipulate he assess
ment rolls Of an entire city in their INFER.
ests. The same stamp OF legitimacy
rests upon the substituting Of the Cos
mopolis Enterprise in the vain hope OF
dividing the delegation from that pre-
cinct in the interest of this same crowd
of ward heelers. Attempted deception
and betrayal of the labor interests OF the
city is equally legitimate, as are pledges
OF everything to everybody if only sup.
port can be received. The one thing OF
course which is not legitimate, is for any
republican to presume to differ from the
views or oppose the plans OF this precious
coterie."
Again, on September 8, the Bulletin,
representing another bunch Of wouldbe
bosses, makes the pertinent inquiry:

W H0 THEY ARE
Biographical Sketches Of
Some of the Demo-
cratic Candidates.
DIR. JOSEPH KENT,

DIR. Joseph Kent, of EIma, democratic
nominee for representative from the Goth
legislative district, is dentist in a luc.
rative pratice who is we'll and widely
known in Chehalis county. A lifelong
democrat, DR.. Kent, if elected, will 60 to
the legislature a free agent, under no
obligation to the lobby or anybody else,
save his constituents, whose interests he
is we'll equipped to care for. He owes
his nomination to no ring, the honor 90.
ing to him entirely unsought, and the
only pledge he is under is to act as the
agent OF his district, and to do all
in his power for the best interests of his
constituents and the state OF Washington.
DIR. Kent was born in Van Buren,
county, Iowa, in 1852, and with his par.
ents crossed the plains with an OK team
in 1868, to California. A few years later
the family moved to Oregon, and in
1880, TO the territory of Washington. In
1899, DR.. Kent came to Chehalis county,
locating at Aberdeen, where he practiced
his profession until May 1901, when he
moved to Elma to make his home, and
where he built dwelling and office and
enjoys a good practice. If you desire to
administer rebuke to the political
pirates who captured the republican
organization at Tacoma last May, vote
for DIR. Kent and the other democratic
nominees for the legislature.

"By what right do Messrs. Hood
Sherwood, Anstie and Ed Benn assume
to dictate the nominees OF the republican
county convention? Who has delegated
to this ring of chronic Office. seekers the
authority to say who shall and who shall
not hold Office in Chehalis county? Why
is the gang 80 frequently in secret con.
clave? Why has the quartette organized
so-called republican club to which no
republican is eligible who does not bow
subsequently to its will? These are
questions taxpayers and voters Of Aber-
deem are asking, and they are naturally
more concerned about a ring of which
they have had positive knowledge for
years, than about ring which exists
wholly in the rings imagination.
1t will BE- noted that three of this
coterie of bosses have succeeded it get
ting themselves nominated for office,
Benn, Sherwood and Anstie, and it now
remains to be seen whether or not their
title to the votes OF the republican ma
jority will be held good at the polls.
According to the same authority, Sep.
TENDER s, we find this quartette had filed
a lien on the labor vote, as shown below:
"Laboring men are bitter in their
reputation of the quartette OF ward
heelers which has 80 blatantly as as.
sumed that they owned the labor VOTE"
Just why the 'laboring men were bit
ter" is revealed by the candid Bulletin
on September 8, when it said:
'ln the last republican county conven.
ton there were dozen union labor men
in the Aberdeen delegation. That dele.
CATION was lined up for Benn and Anstie.
In the naming of delegates to the state
convention, not labor union man was
recognized. Their utility ended when
they were used to pull the gangs chest
nuts out of the fire."
When these little bosses start in to
turn trick they are not at all particular
whose aid they seek, so, on September
8, we have the following wall from the
Bulletin:
"Rudolf Dister. OF Cosmopols, is
spending most OF his time in Aberdeen
working for the Hoo |, Benn, Anstie and
Sherwood combination. The interest of
democrats in the success of that ticket is
peculiar"

DemOcFats denOuncing the alleged ex- travagance of the governments postal service will find small sympathy among the farmers who are using the rural free delivery system.
 Not alone in the postal service. but in all the government departments serving the people and thus requiring large outlays of money, there is one important point which is overlooked by those who make these charges of extravaganza. This is the vast growth in population and in the development of the nations resources in general since the democratic party was last in power A full loaf costs more than a half of one, but is infinitely more satisfying and worth the price.
 That is the way the farmer feels about the rural free delivery system.
 This innovatoin, product of repub- Icanism, was first tried on a small scale in 1897, there being forty-four routes established at a cost Of S4O.OOO. Such was the success achieved that in 1890 there were 1,276 routes, and there are today 24,56O of them, covering two

The British Imperial Floating exhibi- tion has reached an impcWant stage, says London cable dispatch to the were recently made with Sir Alfred Jones to charter the Elder Dempster liner Lake Megantic, $500 tons, which has been running for some time in the north Atlantic trade.
 This steamer is well fitted in every way for a long cruise. Her ample space on the between decks and enor- nous coal carrying capacity are ex- ceedingly well adapted for voyage to the most distant parts of the empire. Numerous important manufacturing firms have already secured space ir the exhibition, and applications are the United Kingdom. It has now been decided that the steamer will leave London on or about April 27.
 The object of this long journey to the east, west, north and south is tc give British manufacturers an oppor. tunity of showing the colonies and foreign countries that Great Britain can hold her own commercially with Germany, France or the United States.
 Each firm will be entitled to send a representative on the Lake Megantic In Montreal, Melbourne, Sydney and Buenos Ayres stay of six days or more will be made, while in smaller ports like St. Johns, Barbados or East London the steamer will stop only two or three days.
 The cruise of the Lake Megantic will embrace Canada, the West Indies. south, east and west Africa, India, Cey- lon, Burma, China, Japan, Queensland. Australia, New Zealand. South Ameri- ca and the Grand Canaries.

BACKED OUT
Friend Who Was About to
 Offer Bail for Man in . Police Station.

James Walsh, who is held ill the po- lice station pending an inquiry into charge of theft, may be confronted with the additional and more serious crime of burglary. A short time ago r. II. Garrity, the plumber, did some work in the residence of 0. B. Sander son. Apparently it was satisfactory, at least no complaint had been maue to the plumber about it. Consequently he was very much surprised the other day to be told that the man whom he had sent to the house to examine the work had scared MT Sanderson's S housekeeper and that she is now very i'll.
 It seems the woman came upon the man very unexpectedly, soaring her so that she tainted. He explained his presence in the house with the state ment that le was sent by MT Garr.ty to examine the work recently done there. The man was described by the woman as lacking two teeth in the front of his mouth.
 This afternoon a friend of Walsh called at the police station and gave bail for him, but as Walsh was issuing from the corridor Chief Egan saw that he lacked two teeth in the front of his mouth and that in other ways he somewhat tallied with the description of Mir Sanderson's housekeeper. Walsh's friend thereupon withdrew his bail.
