that no attempt has been made in the
past to test the productiveness of sage
brush soil, but promised railroad,

ing: Iu Oregon he is elected to office

defeat or the defeat of their friends
in the primary, can think of no great
er punishment to infiiot upon the
whole people. He thrives on dissen-
sion. He is to the republican party
what the divorce lawyer is to the
home" Just so. No more salient
and comprehensive answer has ap-
peared than this from the pen of the
suave John. In it he deftly hides the
gross misrule CT his party in this state
and with his fine Italian hand spreads
a coat of whitewash over the party's
prize land thieves, grafters and brib-
ers, placing the blame of party defeat
on the heads of voters who are deter
mined to mop up the corruption mess
this misrule has brought upon the
state. If it takes a democrat in office
to do this, republicans who voted for
him are to be commended, and "Mc's"
