AS TO PARTY FEALTY

Party allegiance sits lightly
on the voter in these early TWEEN
tieth century days. The day
has passed when the party boss
es can put everything and any
thing on the party ticket and
make the voters take the dose
straight. The voters did it for
a good while but they have
found what, to them, seems to
be a better way. They used to
vote 'er straight" no matter
what was offered them. Now
they think twice before obeying
the behests of the party bosses.
Very often the voters would
make wry faces over the dose
placed before them, but they
would shut their eyes and swal-
low it whole, party tag and all.
A few years ago the Austral.
ian ballot was adopted and the
voter could do as he pleased
while in the booth by himself.

When | was small boy l was told
by my parents that it paid to always
be a gentleman. I've forgotten that
advice occasionally, but I'm more than
ever conyiuced-as the years go by
that it was one of the best pieces of
advice ever handed out to ayoungster
A few days ago l learned that Bob
Burbridge, for many years travel
ing salesman for Geo. r. Newell Co.,
the Minneapolis wholesale grocery
house, had retired from the road and
now has fine position on the inside
OF the house. Perhaps you never met
Bob. If not, you've missed some
thing. Bob" is a gentleman at all
times and that fact has contributed
nightly to his business success, for
he was one of the best statesmen in tn,
state. Bob always had a smile for
everybody; he never failed to raise
his hat when he met a lady; he al
ways got up and gave his seat to a
lady or an aged person in a crowded
railway car instead of spreading him
self out all over two seats while 9TH
ers We're standing; in fact, 1 don't
know of gentlemanly act that Bot
ever failed to perform. 1t endear-
ed him to his customers and to every
body he met; more than that, it in
creased his orders. Good old Bob;
he always brought a ray of sunshine
into any room when he entered; all
were glad when he came and sorry
when he departed. And now that
he's left the road and been given a
snug place inside, all rejoice with him
J wonder how many of us, when we
retire from "the road" or shuttle of
this mortal coil, will leave behind us
such a record of sunshine scattered
around. 1t seems to me there's g
reward for such acts as these, and il
I'm so fortunate as to secure entrance
into the holy city, 1 verify believe
Bob" Burbridge will be among these
whom I shall meet.

Danger of Catarrh
Unless Properly Treated with Hiomei
Becomes Serious.

Becomes Serious.
CATARRHAL troubles are far more dam
gerOus than they seem at first thought.
If you have catarrh, there is an irrita-
ted state of the mucous membrane,
which affords an ideal Judgement and
culture medium for disese germs,
especially those of consumption.
Get cured as quickly as possible be-
fore you breathe some dangerous
germs that may lodge on the diseased
tissue and work destruction in the
throat and lungs.
The easiest and surest way to cure
caiarrn is by the direct method of
breathing Hyomei There is no stom-
ach dragging in this wonderful medi-
Gated air treatment. 1t kills all cstar-
rhal germs, making catarrh and other
germ infection impossible.

ITS tYESiGhI DETECTIVE

| The esteemed st. Cloud Times
is troubled with voluntary as
tigmatiSm. It fails to see
straight when it wants to see
crooked. The Times, in an edi-
torial last Monday, endeavOred
to show that The Herald'S classi-
ticatiOn, last week, Of the
Stearns county newspapers was
wrong. The Times takes par
ticular pains to try to show that
The Herald is Republican in
the newspaper directories and
Republican in its columns. V
When the present owner of
THE Herald took charge last
April, he caused the words An
Independent Newspaper to be
placed under the heading on the
editorial page--page 2. Those
words are there now and have
been in every issue since the
change. The esteemed Times,
being old and decrepit, and it's
eyesight correspondingly poor,
to say nothing of it's perpetually
sour stomach, probably did not
see those words. (?) The Times
knows very well that the news
paper directories are many of
them compiled without ever con-
sulting the publishers. For in
stance, the alleged newspaper
directory for 1908, compiled by
Edward Remington, credits
Sank Centre with two papers,
The Herald and The Avalanche,
when as a matter of fact the lat
ter has not existed for some
three years. The other. direct
cries, with one exception, were
compiled before the change of
management in The Herald; that
one has the facts. AS an indie
pendent newspaper The Herald
has criticised one political party
as much as it has the other. The
Herald has also criticised The
Times and the county commiss-
toner's, whom The Times openly
boasts that it owns AS to
this boast no one has yet dis
puted it. The Herald has stated
cold, hard facts; it has shown
up as bald-faced steal as was
ever perpetrated on a long -suf-
fering public. There's where
the shoe pinches on the Times
foot; that's what makes it try to
befool the public by Juggling in
to the discussion eXtraneOuS
matters; that's why it deliber-
ately misrepresents it's contem-
poraries. The fact that The
Times is Democratic is merely
an incident. The Times would
be just as malicious; just as
grasping; just as unfair; just as
inconsiderate of the rights of
others; just as eager to have it's
snout perpetually in the public
trough; Just as hidebound in it's
political ideas; were it Republi-
can, Populist, Prohibition or
any other thing In the words
of the Irishman: cts the nature
of the baste."

Now that Ed Young has come
out in the open with the an
nouncement of his candidacy for
the governorship, there are
many surmises as to what the
result will be. Both parties in
Minnesota are rent with internal
dissension and it will take a wise
prophet to foretell the outcome.
Ed had sense enough not to pose
in his martyr role when he an
nounced his candidacy, or to re-
fer to his legislative record on
the gross earnings bill. That
ought to help some.

The bosses could not control
him there. Then little later
came the primary election law,
which also helped. The voters
think they have found a better
way than to blindly follow the
dictation of the political boss;
they have put into operation the
plan of voting for whom they
please, as rule casting their
ballots for the best man regard
less of party a fiji liza ito n s.
This demoralizes party organi
zation. But possibly that makes
for the best interests of all con-
cerned. The bosses have learn
ed to their sorrow that in order.
to win they must nominate the
best men by methods that are
above criticism. Elections in
the United States for the past
decade bear evidence to the fact
that the voter has emanciapted
himself from party ties. Demo
cratic Missouri elected Folk,
Democrat, governor, and cast its
electoral vote for Roosevelt, Re
publican, for president. The
same year Republican Mime
sofa gave Roosevelt 100000
majority and elected Demo
cratic governor by 5000 plur-
atty. Two years later she re-
turned Mr.. Johnson to the state
house by the largest plurality
ever received by any Minnesota
governor, in round numbers Is,
900. Democratic voters gave
Missouri to Roosevelt and Re
publican voters elected Johnson
governor.
In view of these facts it ill be-
comes any person, no matter to
which party he belongs, to open
ly champion the policy of voting
the ticket straight, or to advo-
cate the spOils system. But
there are those who still cling
to the old theory that it is here
sly not to stand by party, and
that to the victors belong the
spoils. Right here in Stearns
county a prominent newspaper
openly and brazenly announces
that no person of political
faith different from that of the
paper in question is entitled to
any recognition. The author of
such utterances as that would
probably vote for anything from
a states prison convict to a
wooden Indian if that thing bore
the party brand. Some day the
people will rise in their might
and annihilate any person who
has the hardihood to advocate
such policies. The people are
in the saddle these days and if
parties and politicians would
survive they had best get in line
with the peoples ideas.

Newport, June 3O.-Announce-

the formation of a new firm,

operate gas schooners to the big
banks lying just off Yaquina bar.
The new firm has already pro-
cured hull in Portland, which
is to be fitted with engines of a
late pattern and put in commits
sion out of Newport.
oome years ago the United
States Fish Commission steam
er Albatross spent some time in
surveying the cod banks lying
just southwest of Yaquina Bay.
The report of the Fish Commits
sion was that the banks were ex-
tensive and that both cod and
halibut were to be found on them
in great quantities. This report
stirred up considerable specula-
ton but it came to little. The
fishing done so far has been by
small boat and has continued
during only small part OF the
J summer.
