OREGON CITY, SEPT. 30, 1898.
WE'RE FOR CORBETT.
If we mutt have a U. S. seuator elected
right now J if he mud be a republican
and if we can't wait a few days until the
time arrives for the regular session but
mutt, at a great expense, feed the Salem
hog and elect somebody to draw a sena
torial salary, then, in the name of the
g. o. p. and under the seal of the great
state of Oregon give us H. Moneybags
Corbett. i
He is the logical candidate. The re
publican party is old, decrepitate, fos-
eilated j so ir Oorbett. He is an ideal
republican candidate. He is a goldbug.
He is a uationul banker. He has a
young .wife, who would really enjoy at
tending to senatorial duties at Washing
ton. True, he has lost his voice, but
lie can have if'extended in the records."
He has been stricken with palsy, and
shakes like an aspen leaf but he could,
in a pinch, wink at the president of the
senate, while Joe Simon could dish Out
whatever patronage fell into the old foe
sirs basket. He is a large taxpayer
sold lots on the installment plan and
, took them back under the gold standard
alter the purchasers had built houses on
them. And, above all, he has a sack
a long? fat sack the patent factor in
republican politics and the joy and pride
of the average republican legislator.
By all means give us Corbett, the
prototype of the Hannaissed republican
party the statesman the financier
the logical colleague for Hark Hanna
and the friend of labor.
Corbett wants it, poor old Corbett
By all means let the republican, party o:
Oregon go down to its grave with senator
Corbett at the helm.
THE VNIOX MEMBERS.
The 24 union members of the present
special secsion have started out well.
The experience of the last session will be
a safe gui le to them. If this "over
wbelmingly republican" legislature re
fuse to bleed the state unmercifully and
give worse than nothing in return for
their salaries it will be the first one to
lo so for many years.
The people have, however, given them
one more elm nee. Upon them tests the
responsibility; let them bear that re
sponsibility. The union members elect
have a grand ( pport unity to put them
on trial. That the unionists will assist
in every good measure and introduce
and force to an issue reeded remedial
legislation, we do not doubt. In such a
course alone lies the future success and
influence to the anti goldbug forces ol
Oregon.
Horace Whitb, editor of the New
York Evening Post, in a vain attempt
to defend the gold standard at the money
conference at Omaha said that the rea
on of this plethora of gold was easy to
understand . - The large crops of the past
two years, coinciding with the partial
failuiej abroad, had turned the balance
of trade in our faor. Accordingly we
luul imported $lll,000,000of gold during
the fiscal year ending June 30, 1898.
Yes, that is vory easy to understand.
This is what the silver advocates have
txien claiming all the time, and the gold
inonometttllists will have to prove that
they are responsible for good crops in
this country and the famine in India
and other foreign countries to substanti
ate their claims of being responsible for
the dollar a bushel wheat last spring.
What is the matter now? Wheat is
quoted in the Chicago market at from 60
to 65 cents and in the Portland market
from -W to 46 cents. The republicans
are siill in power. Give us some more
McKinley proaocrity.
Th Oregoniau and Telegram are sure
that II. V. Corbett will be elected
United States senator on the first ballot.
Quite likely they are riht, all indica
tions pointing to that result. Graham,
Glass, the gold democrats who is secre
tary of the republican state committee,
lias toured tl e state u.id interviewed
inomWs of the legislature in a met 1 lie
tone of voice that carries conviction with
it, so it said. At any rate Corbett stock
is raising, and probably will continue to
do so as long as his barrel remains on
tap. The state is pretty Bure to be
represented hi the highest lawmaking
body in the land by an inilrai old fossil
with one foot in the grave, who will lend
-valuable assistance to an almost helpless
invalid who is already there. Or egon is
a great state, barring its politics.
Senator Hrow wsi.l, of Clackamas, has !
the honor of introducing the first bill in
the senate of the 20th legislature. It is
a bill to abolish, the railroad commission.
Watch it pass into the pigeon-hole.
