Merrill for Mayor.

The Oregon Booster, new weekly
Portland paper, with lot of snap and
vim to it, in discussing the mayorality
contest, which will occur next spring in
the metropolis says
Candidates for the Office are looking
with some uneasiness in the direction
of Councilman Fred Merrill, who has
been frequently mentioned as a strong
possibility in the race. He has been
strongly urged to run by many business
men, who want a business man for may
OF. Merrill is an avowed believer in a
regulated town, and has not been in
sympathy with the theorists, who have
occasioned so much trouble in city af-
fairs. His independent course in the
council has shown that he is much more
likely to run the machine, than to let
the machine run him.
cit is quite on the cards that Fred
Merrill may be in the field next spring
as the business mems and working
men s candidate. If so, his opponents
will have to travel faster than the reg
ulation eight miles per hour, and they
win know they have been in a race." >"

MONEY

Lee Mann, who has been wanted by
the minions of the law Of Marion coun-
ty since September, was caught yester-
day by Constable Robert Donaldson.
Mann is charged with stealing $40
worth of hop checks from Miss Dora
and Mrs. Jacob Idlewine. The young
man, who had been boarding at the
Idlewine residence, went to the hop
yard with them in September, and as
sisted in picking hops. When the job
was finished the women gave Mann the
checks, and requested him to have them
cashed for them.
He had them cashed, but evidently
happened to think that he had an en-
gagement elsewhere, and had not been
seen since until yesterday, when the
constable heard that he was in town,
and started to the lodging house where
he was supposed to be stopping. There
he was informed that the man he was
after was in Independence, but some
thing about the story sounded sus-
picious to the officer, and he finally
concluded that he had better investi-
gate matters, when he discovered that

at Center street left the buggy, while
the horse proceeded on across the
bridge, where it was stopped by VIM.

Neither horse nor buggy were harmed

POLITICAL GRAFT.

The action of the Charleston
and Berkeley executive commit
tees in assessing Congressional
candidates $500 is not only a bad
precedent, but it's tendency is
towards exclusiveness- convert
ing the Democratic party into a
kidd Of political trust, and the
effect will be that a man of MOD
crate means, although possessed
of excellent ability is precluded
from offering his services. The
State committee should take
cognizance of this excessive as
sessment, and force those com
mittees to reduce the assessment
to a reasonable sum. The OBJ
ject Of the primary is to give
every Democrat an equal chance
with the people, and this cannot
be the case when the managers
of the political machine make
excessive assessments. Con
gresham Legare has no opposi-
ton, but that should not subject
him to extortion. His career in
Congress merits an unopposed
return, and it does not merit a
curtailment of his salary. We
make much ado about the Moor

Would it surprise the people
of this State, should Senator B.
R. Tillman swing the South Caro-
lima delegation to Cleveland in

would not surprise US in the
least, Notwithstanding his past
compliments paid to the ex-pres-
ident. Tillman is the ranking
Democratic member of the naval
committee, the naval secretary
ship IN the cabinet would be his
s'long suit The proposition
from Cleveland's managers, to
give Tillman a place in the cabi-
net, in our opinion, will find fav-
orable consideration, and it
would give our senior Senator
a good excuse to jerk his pitch
fork out of the ''fat sides of the
bag of beef" and come back
home to his people to acknowl-
ledge that Cleveland is Dot after
all, an ':arch- traitor to the Demo
cratic party" We expect the
opposition to Parker to be so
strong that those seeking party
success will abandon him with a
stampede to Cleveland, and
among the stampeded delegates,
if a suitable deal is effected: b.

ROOSEVELT AND FAIRBANKS.

The Republican National Con-
vention has met, adopted it's
platform, and nominated its
standard bearers. There was no
friction. no contention, every
thing appeared harmonious and
thoroughly organized to meet
the issues to arise in the coming
National battle of ballots. The
nominees are Theodore Roose-
velt Of New York President,
Charles W. Fairbanks Of Indiana
Vice President, and so thorough.
ly organized is this party, that
both nominees were unanimously
chosen.
The nominations are no sur
prise, as every one who has
kept up with current literature
expected none other. President
Roosevelt has been endorsed by
nearly every Republican conven
ton long in advance, and it only
renamed a question of whether
Senator Fairbanks would accept
the second place on the ticket.
The Democratic newspapers
call the convention 'cut and
dried" but we regard the unan-
unity of the Republican Conven-
tion attributable to wise leader
ship and thorough discipline: a
very Republican characteristic,
wholly in contrast with the
great scattered Democratic host.
The Republicans will go into
the battle with the precision of
train soldiers, led by experienced
generals, while the Democrats
are fighting among themselves,
and enter the conflict as an aim
less mob without a head that in
spires the confidence of a solid
party.
In our humble opinion there is
no possible chance to win the
Democratic party. unless that
party can geta nominee who is

citizen for a ransom, Raisuli did
no more than the Charleston and
Berkeley executive committees.
They held up Legare and unless
he pay the ransom they impose,
he can't get back to the seat IN
Congress he so ably filled, and to
which the people are anxious to
unanimously commission him.
The object Of assessing candi-
dates under our system, is to
raise funds to meet actual ex-
penses in the primary, and it
never was intended to extort
money to pay for :heelers''and for
whiskey and beer for ':bums'
who make themselves active
about polling places. These
extortionate assessments are so
fagrantly unjust, that it should
be an object lesson for the fu-
ture; the people should take a
hand in eradicating this evil,
and unless they do. money and
graft will control our politics,
and honesty, brain and patriot
ism will not be taken into con
sideration.
CONGRESSMAN Legare OF course
will pay no attention to the
"hold.up" in Berkeley, because
under the rules as made by the
State executive committee for
bid assessing Congressional can
didates, exempting Charleston.
This TOOLS unreasonable, the
State executive committee does
not pay one cent to help defray
the expenses of county prl-
mary and it should not demand
anything from the candidates,
but leave that aside, where is
the fairness in permitting Char
lesion to impose an unreasona.
BILE assessment on a candidate:
It looks to US that the committee
in Charleston is specially privi-
legged to run poor men out OF
politics, and especially to keep
them from being of service to
the people, and all Of this in the
name of equal rights to all and
special privileges to none. Con-
gresham Legare would add to
his popularity in Colleton, Dor
chester and Clarendon, did he
snap his fingers in the faces OF
Charleston's grafters, and refuse
to pay them a sou.
