CITIZENS VICTORIOUS.
The election yesterday was a victory
for the Citizens' Party, for while they
did not succeed in electing the whole
ticket. they lauded five good. strong
men.
This insures to the Citizens of Skag
way a conservative and business-like
administration.
The men were elected on a plat fori
that was phrased in no uncertain lan
guage and the promises made will be
fulfilled to the letter.
FULTON OF OREGON
For the sake of public decency and
that the Taft administration may not
start out with a distinctively vile
stench of its own, we hope that there
:s no foundation tor the report that
President Taft is going to appoint
Fulton of Oregon to a federal bench.
This man Fulton was repudiated by
his own party and all parties in Ore
gon. Because of his record in poli
tics and out of politics, a democrat
kits in the United States senate, el
ected from a republican state by a
republican legislature.
To elevate Charles W. Fulton to th
L'uited States bench would be a
positive insult to every patriot who
believes in Roosevelt policies or
Roosevelt honesty of administration,
and make every law-breaking corpor
ation and every individual grabber,
from one end of the country to the
o'her. to snort with amusement and
take a new hold of public belongings
with satisfaction.

There's only one reason for Ful
ton's being put on the federal
bench, and it is a dirty one.
Ht's a barker of Frank Hitchcock,
who sent bulldozers to Oregon to de
feat the people's will and make
infamous liars and traitors
of legislators during the voting for
United States senator last January.
It will be discouraging to the com
mon people and tough on Uie honor
able judiciary of the nation should
Taft pay any cabinet member's little
pciitical debts by e'evation to the fed
eral bench of men like Fulton.
The people of Fulton's own state
killed and buried him, and not even
President Taft can resurrect that
corpse without creating a stench that
will stick to his clothes for all time. ?
