Tall Timothy Talk on Attitude in 1902 Campaign
A lengthy interview excerpt from the Moro Observer recounts Timothy Timms, a Republican candidate in Oregon 1906, defending his stance in 1902. He details vetoing the Portland Charter Bill amid county opposition, denounces slander by a Republican faction, and explains his later bid for U S senator while facing coordinated attacks and manipulated ballots. He calls for cleaner politics and fair play. The piece also includes brief notices on medical recovery and public proclamations about constitutional amendments and initiative petitions in Oregon.
