MR.. MOORES' WAL

Charles B. Moores of Salem has
withdrawn from the field as a con-
gressiona1 possibility. Though
genial and warmhearted to a re-
markable degree, Mr.. Moores is a
man to whom the toadying, hand
grabbing and prostration of self, in
cident to vote-hunting was hateful,
and his intimate friends know that
this had much to do with his with

which doubtless have something to
do with his determination to re-

Made -"Ab" Woo1ey.

AD WO0leY.
A. B. Wooley, for many years a
resident of the vicinity of Corvallis,
and we'll known to all oldtimers,
died in Portland last Sunday night.
He seems to have fallen in a fit on
the streets of the city. Saturday af-
ternoon, and was picked up and ia
ken to the city Jail in the belief that
he was drunk. The facts in the
case are related as follows in the
Oregonian:
Mot drunk, but having fallen
n a fit, A. B. Wooley. was picked
iup by the police last Saturday af-
ternoon and conveyed to the city
Jail in a patrol wagon. He was
locked up in a cell as being intox-
icated, until Captain Moore discov-
cred that he was injured in some
manner. A physician was sum-
moned and about three O clock Sun
day morning the man was taken to
St. Vincent's hospital, where he
died at 10 O'Clock.
Friends of the dead man called
upon Acting Chief of Police Gritz-
macher, yesterday morning, to cor
rect the impression of drunkenness
that had gone abroad, and to ex-
plain that Mr.. Wooley was a total
abstainer, a Grand Army veteran,
and that he was a good man. He
was aged 60 years and lived at St.
Johns"
About twenty years ago, cab
Wooley left Corvallis and went to
Wasco to reside. He remained at
the latter place until a year ago,
when he sold his property and re-
moved to St. Johns. He served
throughout the Civil wal as a I'm
ion soldier, and was a member of
W. T. Sherman G. A. R. post of
Wasco. He was an honest, up
right man, and as such, during his
residence in Benton, as we'll as in
Wasco, he was esteemed and hon
ored by all who knew him. He
was a brother of Mrs. Henry FL
lott, who resided for several years
each at Corvallis and Monroe. Mr..
Wooley served a term or two as

Official Paper Of Benton County.
CORVALLIS, OREGON,
FRIDAY EVENING DEC. IS, 1905.
SENATOR GEARLN.

SEINA Oh OEANI1f.
These are days when there is a
strong drift in sentiment to men of
the better class for public place.
For decades, the social and political
forces in this country have moved
all too smoothly in a groove, where
in the public conscience was over
dormant. Late disclosures and ex-
posures of graft and of high and
frenzied finance have made almost a
universal demand for the best man,
and the best only, for public place.
The movement is the harbinger of
a better day, for one of the chief
weaknesses in Our system is the
wellknown fact that the men of
highest character hold aloof from
the dirty ness of politics.
In full harmony with the new
drift is Governor Chamberlain S
selection of a new senator for Ore
gon. The appointee is a child of
the state, and in every particular,
a product of Oregon. He was born
81 years ago in Umatilla county,
while the emigrant train that was
bearing his family across the plains
into frontier Oregon, was halted
for a few days. He was reared to
manhood on French Prairie, Marion
county, where shortly before there
had been ushered in the beginnings
of civic organization in which the
pioneers set up a government for
themselves. The growth of the
provisional society and the waif OF
the emigrant train, were contem-
poraneous,-the one into a power
full and populous commonwealth,
the other, into that character OF
man that makes for the safety Of
human society.
Nature bestowed unusual talents
on Mr.. Gearin, and 54 years of well
spent life in the state of his nativ-
ity have rounded him into a man
fully typical of the new ideal. of
public servant. He is for honesty
and probity in public or private
place, rather than for graft and
greed he is statesman, mor than
politician, patriot more than par
tisan, and, will be interested in
policies and measures, more than
in offices and ofice-hunters. He is
for all Oregon, rather than for a
small part, and is for all classes,
which is the masses of the people,
rather than for a privileged few.
Though a democrat his mental ho-
rizon extends far enough to discern
whatever of good there may be in
measures urged by republicans,
which is more than is true of all par
tisan senators. With the best
policies urged by the president, Mr.,
Gearin is in perfect accord, where
in he will be a better senator for
the country, and for Roosevelt than
is many a republican. He is, in
short, a man whose force, talents.
and polished address, will command
the respect of the senate, will reflect
credit on the state he stands for,
and who, in the brief term allotted
him, will be a helpful and health
full representative for Oregon to

that still delay his decision are per
