American League Clubs Standing.
National League CIubs' Standing

Manager Stahl and his band of Washing
ton players did not reach home until $3.50
this morning, and everybody showed the
effects of the long journey from Chicago.
They left the Windy City Sunday night, but
struck slow train and had been on the
cars nearly thirty-six hours. The Boston
team left st. Louis the same time, and beat
the Nationals to Washington, arriving here
at I 80 this morning
When asked for news this morning by a
Star reporter Manager Stahl said there was
nothing to give out with the exception
that Lave Cross has been suffering from a
carbuncle on his left leg, and was in a
DAD way for several days. but is now doing
better The veteran will probably leave for
nome tomorrow. and will play no more hall
this season. Mr.. Stahl has also picked I'D
new tWIrIer by the name of Wilson. who
mas nas oeen working so we'll with the Canton.
ONO team this season. Stahl caught a
SAmpse or Wilson in several games and
ne looked so good that Garland decided to
gobble him up. ~
AS to the management of the Nationals
next season, Mr.. Stahl had absolutely moth
ing TO say, but remarked that he had not
seen newspaper man in st. Louis to talk
TO- ana that an alleged interview with him
III me Mouhd City was pure fabrication.
had Manager Stahl reached Washington
last night the chances are that there would
nave been no game today, as the Boston
manager had been sending kilograms beg
glng him to call the contest off and double
up tomorrow. The Boston club needs a
good rest and wanted to put off the hard
work until the FAST minute MIR. Stahl NOT
being at home the kilograms could not be
answered and the game today stands as
originally scheduled.
Jimmy Morgan. the popular ex-George-
town player, Is with the Bostons, and held
quite reception at the Arlington this
morning. many students dropping in to give
him shake of the hand and whisper words
OF good cheer. Morgan got bad start with
Boston. but for the past month he has been
putting up grand game and attracting at
tention ali over the American League cir
cult
Manager Stahl had decided at noon to
work the new twirler Goodwin this after
noon. while the Bostons will have in
Swarmstadt, recently secured from the
New York State League. There is not a
veteran twir.er with the Bostons, the man
agement having let Cy Young off after
playing in st. Louis, and Dineen and Tan

The little tug James Jackson, jr., belong
ing to Mr.. Augustus Dean Of Alexandria,
had a narrow escape from being lost in the
river Sunday morning last by sinking in the
deep water Of the channel of the naval
powder magazine. The jackson is employed
as a tender to the dredge engaged in dig
cling the trench In which the pipe for the
outlet of the big sewer from this city is
being laid. Sunday morning she had made
a trip to this city and was returning to the
dredge, when she ran ashore on the edge of
the channel bank not far from where the
dredge Is employed. Where the tug lay
was about three feet Of water. and outside
her was the channel with twenty-five feet
of water in It. The tide was falling. and
the little steamer listed In such q way that
she was In danger of filing with water
and sliding or the bank into the deep water
of the channel, where she would have been
hidden from sight. A big scow was run
alongside the sinking boat and she was
made fast to It, This noated her until she

THE "LIFERS."

The declaration is made that
Mr.. Burnett is a very competent
sheriff. This is true. More
over, Telt is a good fellow. How
ever, unfortunate as it may seem
to certain interested ones, he
has not a monopoly on all wis
dom and clerical ability. A life
time in office should make a man
conversant with the duties of
said Office. Mr.. Burnett has
been in the sheriff's office for
ten years, four as deputy and
six as sheriff and yet.
From what democracy would
have us believe Benton would
cease to be without Mr.. Burnett
in the sheriff's office. Really,
this does not seem probable to US,
Notwithstanding the source Of
the proclamation.

VIII SUPPORT THE TICKET

Men are republicans because
they believe in and accept the
principles and purposes of the
republican party, They believe
these principles and purposes
embrace everything necessary to
TIE welfare, prosperity and hap
pIuess of the Individual citizen
and for the development and
progress of the state.
They desire to give place and
influence to men who believe in
and accept republican principles
and purposes as earnestly as they
themselves do. To this end they
name a republican candidate for
each Office, from governor all the
way down to precinct officers.
This constitU = the republican
ticket. 1t must b. elected by the
republican voters. No man on
the ticket has any right to de-
nand other than republican sup
port, but every man on it has a
just right to the unfailing sup
Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Benton County, Or.) 1900-1909, 1906-05-18

port of every republican voter.
The candidates were placed on
the ticket by vote of the rank and
file of the party, and not at the
behest of any self-constituted
leader or aspiring party boss. .
For this reason they have a pecu-
liar and unusual right to expect
the support of every republican.
Benton county is republican
county by a safe majority. If
republicans will do their plain,
simple duty in a straightforward,
manly way, the anomaly of demo-
Gratis holding the most response
BILE and lucrative offices in the
county will cease to exist. We
are gratifed by the multiplying
assurances that republicans
throughout the county will stand
firm in the support of the county
ticket, as well as of the state and
congressional tickets.
No candidate should receive
anything short Of the entire re-
publican vote that it is possible to
cast for him, and no candidate
receiving this can fail of cleo
ton.

THE INSINUATOR.

LET him who is without sin
first cast a stone" From a GER
tain unreliable quarter, a source
not burdened nor weighted to
earth with reputation for YER
-acity nor fair dealing, comes the
continued wall that the republi-
cans put up a job and defeat
ed certain men at the primary
election.
Why does the brother so bother
himself about what the republi-
cans are doing? Desperation
prompts it. 1t is necessary to
exist, at least so it is presumed,
and to keep soul and body to-
gether our friend must have a
county rake-off. Cry economy"
in county affairs! Bah! What
a farce, when our contemporary
charges a good sum for printing
matter which we run as news and
have no thought of making a
charge for. Why so economical
all at once? Those thoughts
should not be allowed to rise so
suddenly and with such violence
for they might do bodily harm to
a soul of unusual purity.
Some people can make a re-
mark and have their fellows feel
that it was made in conviction of
it's TRUTHS this a case? And yet
We hear the cry of jobbery. Did
the man who now cries "jobbery
and combine in the columns of
the Times ever job anybody in
Corvallis? Can anybody prove
that he is not jobbing the people
of this city and county right
now? And yet in the face of
what his reputation is thought to
be he dares to cry jobbery. Let
him prove his job.

ALWAYS A PARTISAN.

When any considerable number
of men hold to principles and
policies which they wish to apply
to the administration of public
affairs they naturally form a
party for the propaganda of their
tenents. This is the reason for
the formation of parties and the
only sufficient reason for their
existence.
1t sometimes may occur that a
party once having distinctive
principles, has, for some reason,
come to a point where it really
has no principles Of its own and
is unable TO formulate any whi ch
men earnestly embrace.
When such a party engages in
a political campaign it must pur-
sue three courses. 1t must re-
sort to vituperation and misrepre-
sentation of opposing candidates;
it must steal and appropriate, as
deftly as may be, the principles
of the opposing party; it must
decry drawing party lines. 1t
must do these things because it
has no principles of it's own.
These things are exactly de-
scriptive of the democratic party
in the present campaign. 1t as
sails the republican nominees
with vituperation and misrepre-
sentation. Especially have they
assailed DR.. Withycombe, repub-
lican candidate for governor. So
mean, causeless and senseless
have these assaults been that
fair minded and honorable demo-
Gratis resent them and rally to the
support of Withycombe.
When it attempts to palm off
Republican principles as it's own
no one is deceived, for everybody
knows the democratic party has
no principles, and for long has
not had any that the people
want.
For democrats, like G. E.
Chamberlain and J. M, Gearin to
deprecate party lines, is little
short of amusing. When and
where has Geo. E. Chamberlain
done political act with his eyes
closed to the consequence to him
self and party? So also of Sen
ator Gearin.
Republicans have principles
and policies. They know these
are safe only in republican
hands. They will be republican
partisans until the polls close
June 9Th, and leave it to Gov
