Some of tho frec-nllver Cleveland Weaver fusion Democrats aro not pleased at the gleams of sound finan cial doctrines tlmt nro enunciated in thesocolums. Their free silver efforts are now directed to running the Re publican party of Orojon, as their fi nancial fulmluatloits aro addreasod to Republican members of the legislature, for the purposo of getting tho Republi can party of Oregon committed to a financial policy that has helped wreck the Democratic party, and upon which the Populist party cannot make ar y headway. The hopes of these financial agitators and political silver demago gues now centers upon building up a distinctively silver party and getting enough Republicans Into It to gatvi.n ize this corpse of DemocraticPopullstlo financial nonsense Into life and respect ability. Pandering to ignorance n one hand and the silver barons on the other, these free-silver politicians howl for unlimited coinage as the last resoit of the defeated ambitious political mountebanks who would get ofllce and power at any price. They cannot phi w why. If It is a bad tiling, us it certainly Is, to found our whole finance system upon a limited quunityof gold, It is not equally as bad and unsound a proposi tion to found our national currency upon an equally limited quantity of silver. A true and flexible national currency can only bo founded on the wisely adjusted credit of the nation, resting upon good and stable revenue policies of a wisely conducted national government. They cannot show why a free-silver party, to coin value.Into silver, Is any more rational than a free-wheat party, or a free-wool party, to Ibbuo paper cer tificates or warehouse stamps to give wool or wheat (of which Oregon pro duces ten times as much as of silver) double Us present value. They wont to force the Ropubllcan party of Ore gon Into an untenable position, ho far as the national Republican party is concerned, and give new life and hope to eastern and southern Democraoy, Rut successful administration of na tional affairs, no essential to our finance system, and to the immense operations necessary In our country's treasury and lo the stability and confidence and security of (lie business of seventy mil lions of people, is Just what tlioto fusion froo-sllver Democrat-Populists cannot furnish, Rocouso they do not know enough to frame sound policies of government to keep our Industries alive, our laborers employed, our farm or prosperous, and business JlnurMi- UWt tliey resort to Jlimucilul quuoliury ft' (lie etiblcttt wuy (o liulp out tliuijr !gUQ.riiioo, nun puQlty um) general unfit lit to rule the aflulrs of a grout iiullon, Xlke (lie dootor who wu grtat on din Jug tlU, Mud (Jirew patients with oIIht disease Jnlo (humit'ihu ooul'l apply his nostrum tor thut illlllnuliy, tlu'u fusion utiiwli utlllbuUi all tliulll.of our country topiiu uuug unl lwluii they Jmys (he only spwl Do, Jn J6P9 (ho JtejiubJicjui umi Dm wulJO j)rUw Jnv) (w ll v-r Wiunm In Orison, in m ijiu vil nmntmiu wm JwuwJ y (ho nudonul IhnmittUv winmllUiv (o uruKw yotunuiM viwUuit 4yJ,if you mm in Jiwjji uJwhIhimJ yivr the Wwwr vhiimti," Ami H III Oniwii mi )l Ih" vkv nuilimru tw w m vuwi, rim mim liamWr of ilmn uwi uMvl um tmu UiDlWm, Uiw iMUjt m lu hujiu M!yJJWJ llHl)tlimlUu jiw;(y niiil Mv J'i'uIM $ily 'lltfuUmr wn Ut jwell Ihw iiiltf uf ltiimilh fMw) IHl JiM !

Tho plau Is ev ' dently to organlao a now pariy iuo national freo-sllvcr party. Silver has always been an honest money metal and the word frco has a taking sound. Free whlskey.free trade and free silver, is go jd enough war cry to make a vot er's mouth water aud catch his vole. That Is tho Way tho reason. That Is what Is behind all this prosent ogttt. tlou for free silver so far as tho fusion politicians aro concerned. There are honest free-sliver mas In the Republi can party and there aro ho test frlcudB of silver In both parlies who aro not free coinage men, or soft-mouey men, or ciepreciated-currency men, o Mexicanlzatlo i-of silver men. Rut the whole fusion, free-silver, combination movemont to divide the Republican party or form a new party or make a uew isaud In po'ltic, looking to a polit ical revolution In J800, Is the same old catch-the-laborer and catchrtho farmer dema oglcal pollti oil fraud now that It has evor been, and true aud Intelligent men, bo they Rupub lens, or anything else, hhou'd not be deceiveJ thereby. the argument that free and unlimit ed oluae of silver would be a panacea for the prepeut depressed conditions is unsound. Tho depression is world wld . It exists In Canada, in England, inG'rmauy, all over Europe, all over the wjrld. To blame tho Clevelaud admlulsttatl n for It Is not tho verdict of tluujhtful Inlolligcut men. The mo it that on bo said, Is, that so far a' our country Is concerned, the Democratic administration has not helped relieve the hara limes, indeed has undo them worse. Our country would have recovered sooner, labor would be better employed, farm products w)uld bring better prices, In dujttlts would be flourishing, silver would bring a bettor price, If we had had no Cleveland administration. No bidy doubts this. Everybody knows that all tho conditions would bo differ ent, a far higher grade of prosperity would be tho rule had Harrison been re-elected, and if Republican policies carried out by Republicans had pre vailed since march 4, 1804. And we all know It would havo been done without resort to froo and unlimited coinage of silver. It would have been done by continual applica tion of the sound money principles of national Republicanism, flood money would have passed from hand to hand among millions of luborers and for in creased prlco of millions of dollars, worth of farm produce and other raw material of mine and forest, tho pro ducts of laud and ocean -the only wuy tlut money oun circulate primarily uud the only way Its iilrctilutlou can huofuny benefit to the mnse of fho people, Jiouuiisuof u worldwide depression In b null) mis, beutnuunf Incapacity of the Dtfiiioorutlu parly (o oonduiit feiiu manfully (lie affairs nfthugrwtlest com merulul nation In (ho world, hecausu of t'je ullur l)uM)MnrM of (ho polllltml outlook fur " lot of fusion uglUtor ami (wrmoruiiU who will have lo go In work for a living If Ihvy tmnnpt get "i Miiltw in imi -Ihimtt urv (ho reasons why Him JUijhiIjIIhuii purty uf Urogun sbunliJ gut Um; u plulnmi) uf tM Willi iiulliiiltutJ Miiajjyuf silver, 'i'hoy um MA um.

't'lio ntnud you luwe taken In favor of reforms, and tho great responsibility tho Republican party has assumed In their responsibility to the people to see that the pledges made lu their plat form at tho last stato convention shall bo carried out to tho fullest exteut possible. Tho legislature should heed tho voice of tho creat ruuloritv of the voters cf the state, aud send no man to tho United States senato whose position n tin freo colnago of sliver Is iu tho lo.ut doubtful but one who is openly and avowedly In avorof tho same. Tho people have great ooulldence in tho ability and lutegrlty of tho senli r editor of the Jouhnai. to ox pose and to oppose all Jobbing aud extravagance at the coming session f tho legilature. Do something to restrict the powers a id ext r Ions of tho echool book truBt, and bring about tho stato publication of not only tohool books but also of the laws of our owu stato as soon ns pos sible. Il is a shame and dlpgrace to the state that we must be compelled to go to California to get our laws printed and then pay such an exorbetant price, $13 for the codes. Hill's compilation may be fairly well done, but the index- a Is a lamentable failure and besides he has without any authority of Jaw ucked on the session laws as an ad denda to cheat the state printer out of Ills sbaru of tho work and at the last session of tho legislature refuped to fur nish the members with codes without the addenda. Keep up your lioks for the reenact ment of the mortgage tax law and a carefully guarded exemption for In debtedness law. Yours for economy and a fulfillment of party pledges-for the right. J. TueJouhnal fought the repeal of tho mortgage tax law at the lastsetsion tn tlm best of its nbllitv and all that it then slated has como true. Money is not cheap to the borrower as was pre dicted. Oregon noto-holders who do not evade the law are taxed, while non resident note-holdors escape assessment. The money-lender charges up to tho borrower the taxes on money that, the law supposes him to honestly pay, and then evades paying those taxes, while thousands of peopio pay taxes on prop erty they do not own and cannot pay for. The old law worked badly In al lowing owners of real property to de duot personal evidences of unrecorded debt from their totul assessment. The class who got the largest exemptions for Indebtedness aud tho largest deduc tions from their assessment are not tho samo class that aro escaplug under the presout law. Tho present law Is worse than the old law in that it works a greater hardship and does a greater Injustfco to those least able to stand it the debtor class, As far us the work of the next legislature Is concerned, Tim Jouunal will do ull lu Its power to see thut the pledges made lo the people of Oregon aro kept. Rut It expects (he peopio (o do (heir purt uud tuke nn in telligent Intercut lu whut Is going on At Sulem for (he next three mouths, Money Is power, hut lulelllguutv Is u higher power.
