"It can be counted upon, also, that NONE OF THEM will aspire to the third term, and on the other hand that they will KEEP SACRED the American policy, which holds the THIRD TERM proposition as dangei < us to good government.” Upon the election of Hutchings,' Gagnon, Kenton, Oliver and Hie others, the Kalla Cit> News, in the issue ol Nov. 10, Hiu.'i, made the above pi online in their behalf. The i|iie.u oris now arise: !s tin1 promise of political bosses worth anything? Are the voters to lie promised one tiling and four years later he satis tied with the statement that "condi tions have changed?" Isn’t it time for the voters the in dependent voter, republicans and democrats alike to teach ANY t'AN DIDATB, regardless of party, that more than two terms at public of fice is too many?” "At times HOUSE CLEANING is a remedy that needs to be applied to every party which has controlled public offices. Without the house cleaning process EVERY PARTY OF POWER DEGENERATES and the acts of the politicians become more brazen and less considerate.”—Falls City News, Nov. 3, 1905. You, Mr. Voter, were promised a square deal. Did you get it? No! Young aspirants were "turned down" for chronic office holders. Will you stand for it? The personal abuse that is being \ handed to Geo. Kallstead and "Dick" ! James, was taken up last week by Col. Dalby In his sightly sheet, the Sbubert Citizen. The Colonel was honest enough to brand the article, ‘"paid advertising." The democratic machine seems to think that these gen tlemj-n can in some unknown manner control Hie utterances of The Tribune in showing the voter just how these gentlemen were treated at tie late primary election, where they sought a nomination for clerk and judge. While we admire these gentlemen for their nerve in standing pat. when given to understand that the machine had settled that matter in favor of the third teilileis. Me cannot aiiou them to dictate a policy for The Tribune Just because the said machine desires it. These gentlemen were not the only aspirants turned down by the machine that insisted upon the third-termers holding on. If they de sire their names we can give you the names of the gentlemen from Dawson. Vertlon and Shubert who were told to "sit down,” and who obeyed the edict. Kallstead and James did not obey, consequently Hie sore spot on the machine. •lolm Hutchings served on the county hoard; lie is now finishing tip two terms as county clerk. lie lore ho is willing to leave the clerk’s office he wants the voters to make it possible for him to just walk aeros the hall and take the treasurer's of fice. To use the words of the Falls City News (September 15, 1005), “once an office holder, always an office holder” seems to be “Johnny's" motto. According to the democratic bosses it must be Hutchings, Gagnon, Fenton and Oliver forever. But the voters are alive to the fact that there are other people in the county worthy of consideration. And they remember ■the false promise that was made them after the alectloA, foyr years ago, too. “NOW AND THEN.” Under the above caption the dem ocratic echo makes vain effort to show that while it was all wrong to elect third term republicans four years ago, it is Just the proper thing to re-elect democrats so long as they Pave clean records and are < apnblo officials. Ii is unite strange that a third term was tm-American four years ago. but has lost its savor along that line. Perhaps that great moulder of public opinion can thrust this, their new idea, down the throats of the voters just now, but we doubt it. These same voters said "no more third termors" by a very large ma jority. They will do the same this year, the di mo echo to the con trary. To prove the capability of these hangers-on, the same echo tries to cast a shadow upon the ability of George Belchers, by falsely c-hnrg- i ing him, while book-keeper tor Mar tin Zook, with “making numerous blunders that cost the county $(121.112.” Now the assertion that this amount had been stolen from the county by anyone,or an extra expense made by “blunders,” the echo well knew was a false statement, but it is Just as close to the truth us that machine ever gets. After the retirement of Mr. Zook and after the funds had been turned over to bis successor, there were a lew claims in dispute, and Mr. Zook chose to wait for a settlement on these until an exam ination was completed on the four years' service. When litis was done the supervisors found that the amount of $621.(12 was Justly due the retiring treasurer and Issued a war rant for that amount In bis favor. What tan the public think of a paid liar, who will translate a mat ter of public record as the echo did Iasi week? It will take that time-honored, mass-covered, institution a long lime to make the volt rs of this county be lieve that Martin Zook or George j Bluchers ever cost tills county a cent that they did not justly earn ABOUT ROY DAGGETT. Mr. Daggett needs no introduction to people living in the central part; of the county. For the benefit of! those living in the remote parts, or those others 'who do not happen to know him, we will say that, to use | a slang phrase, "he is all wool and ! a yard wide.” He is just that. To' meet him is to like him; to know' him is to trust .aid honor him; and! to be Intimately acquainted with him Is to love him as a brother. Mr. Daggett is seeking election to the office of county clerk. It is Ills very FIRST request for a county office. As to his ability to transact the business of that office, The Tribune i will say right here that the county ! affords no better material. Mr Daggett recently suffered the loss of a limb, the result of an ac-1 cldent in the mill at Salem, and Is Just now recovered sufficiently to got | around over part of the county to make new acquaintances. If you; meet him, you’ll vote for him. .If you don’t happen to meet him, v«*e for) him anyway—you'll not make a mis- j take. Tlie communication from "In dependent Voter” in another column is, proof positive of the outcome of the election on November 2nd. The | independent voter plays a very great part, in fact the most important, part,) toward determining who shall and who shall not be elected. That the independent voters declared against the third term policy four years ago there is no doubt; that the same in dependent voters will declare against the present democratic candidates— who promised NOT TO RUN FOR A THIRD TKlf.M is a foregone eon elusion. Gagnon lias been in the county Judge's chart', off and on, as far hack as the writer can renieniln r Four years ago when he was elected the Falls City News said for him, and the rest of the present democratic candidates, that it can be counted up on that he WILL NOT aspire to another term. Really, Judge, don’t you think you've been there long enough? Why didn’t you keep the promise made through the News four years ago? Don’t you think a young aspirant could mete out justice? it seems that the democratic bosses would keep Gagnon in office forever. For the fifth time he is running for that office, notwithstanding that .“Dick” James, a “young aspirant” with ability galore, sought the posi tion, believing that Gagnon had had enough. Then, too, the bosses virtu ally pledged themselves to James; In t forgot their promise when they found they couldn't “use” him. Say, let's not forget the primary vote at Barada. Who'll say that there was no machine,when it thresh ed out 31 votes for Gagnon; while hie opponent. James, didn’t get a single one. Machine!
