JUDGE BENNETT'S SPEECH.
Judge Bennett's speech at the
courthouse last evening was a re
" markable one in many respects.
The speaker is skilled in subtle argu
ment, and understands how to pre
sent his facts in their strongest
light, hiding their unfavorable sides
and showing a pleasing exterior.
While1 Judge Bennett can in some
jrespeets be complimented upon his
.effort last evening, we doubt if he
.-carried -conviction to many minds.
Mr. Bennett -declared that the Wil
son' bill was a much better measure
- than ; its 'predecessor, the McKinley
- bilL The tariff, he said, is a great
humbug. It is a means of highway
robbery ad takes from the pockets
. of the "West to fill those of the East-
. ern .manufacturers. The East, ac
cording to Judge Bennett does not
. like the West and for every dollar
we pay it for manufactured goods it
ueinrns not a one. . (At this point the
speaker failed to remind his hearers
of the immense amount of salmon,
fruit and wool shipped from the Pa
cifio coast to the people of the East.)
The speaker declared that the Pacific
1 coast wa nearer England in com
mercial relations than to the eastern
part of the United States.
Mr. Bennett is opposed to manu
factures, and said The Dalles should
seek to be a commercial city, with
out the aid of such institutions.
He drew a picture of this city glow
ing rich throagh commerce with the
outside world, but was not very
specific as to details.
Free silver, says Mr. Bennett, is
what the country needs; lots of
money, and if it takes too long to
coin the silver bullion, set the presses
- to work and grind out silvei certifi
cates. Like all other De'mocrats, he
was very willing to put the tariff in
the background and make the finan-
cial question the absorbing one.
Mr. Bennett asked for the votes of
Republicans, Democrats and Popu
lists; told the Republicans to lay
aside their principles and vote for
him, but admonisheu the Democrats
to cling to the party standard and
vote for the regular nominee.
Judge Bennett is a free trader in
nractice and belief. His talk about
tariff on wool is done to catch the
wool-growers vote. The country is
looking to Oregon to render its ver-
vict whether or not the Wilson bill
h hppn Kfinpfit or detriment to
-
the country ; whether the people
want a protective tariff or whether
our markets should be open to the
competition of the world, our lac
tones closed down ana laborers
starving.
If you believe the last three years
have been prosperous for the coun
try, vote for Judge BennPtt But if
not, vote against the system for
which he is the exponent.
ARLINGTON'S SORRY PLIGHT.
A new circular issued by the O.
R. fe N. Co. gives the" following
tariff rates from points on its line to
the Atlantic seaboard: From The
Dalles, $1.15; Arlington, $1.55
Heppner, $1.65. The rate by the
boat company will undoubtedly be
much lower. In this connection the
following article, taken frcm the
Fossil Journal, we deem of interest
to our readers, ana consequently
give it editorial space;
In the first place the difference in
favor of The Dalles, or rather againsi
Arlington 40 cents is too great,
as wool is being hauled to The Dalles
from here for 75 cents, only 25
cents more than the cost of the haul
to Arlington. Besides this, the
buyer who buys wool at Arlington
will, in addition to the 40 cent rate.
deduct for extra handling charges,
and Mr. Rettie considers that alto
gether buyers will, on account of
this, discriminate at least half a cent
in favor of The Dalles, even if ship
ping over .the O. R. & N. East. Bit
the grower who- hauls hi wool to
The Dalles need not ship over
the O. R. fc N., as he will t.en have
competition, and may eet better
rates East from another eornpany.
Besides, The Dalles being a bigger
shipping point, there are- always
more buyers therer and the- seller has
the advantage of keen competition
among buyers for bis clip.
And yet Arlington is wondering
why the sheepmen of this section are
hanling their wool to The Dalles, in
stead of to Arlington a formerly.
The fact is, the skeepmen are beeom
ing awakened to their own interests,
and need no longer be expected to
haul their wool to Arlington while
they can make a clear saving of 25
cents per hundred ponnds by haul
ing it to The Dalles, leaving the ad
vantages of a better market out of
the question altogether. This
makes an average difference of more
than $100 on one year's clip to every
sheepman in this vicinity.
It would eem to be poor policy
on the part of the O. R. Jt N. to
drive the "wool away from Arlington
to The Dalles, where they stand a
chance of losing the long Eastern
haul, but a gentleman who recently
interviewed the agent at Arlington,
informs us that he told him his com
pany would get tbe wool at The
Dalles anyhow, owing to pool ar
rangements they have with the other
companies.
Be that as it may, this does not
help Arlington, and her citizens bad
better be stirring themselves for
better rates for our wool-growers if
they expect to handle much of our
wool. Already 40,000 pounds have
gone to The Dalles, and there are
yet 250,000 pounds in this immedi
ate vicinity that will be shipped
there unless the railway company
come down on its rates to The Dalles
and the East. Then there is about
the same quantity in the Lone Rock
and Lost Valley sections, and as
much more in the Condon neighbor
hood yet unshipped, the bulk of
which will no doubt find its way to
The Dalles, unless better inducements
are offered to haul to Arlington, their
rearest and natnral shipping point.
One other, and not the least, reason
why Gilliam county wool is being
hauled to The Dalles is contained in
the fact that all the county papers
contain 'a strong advertisement re
questing tho sheepmen to haul their
wool to The Dalles, and setting forth
the advantages to be derived from
compliance with such request.
In this article nothing has been
said of back freight, which is being
hauled out from The Dalles by the
wool freighters. Much of this
freight reaches The Dalles by water,
paying no tribute whatever to tho
railroad company, which it would be
compelled to do if Arlington were
the shipping point. Every freighter
who goes to The Dalles with wool is
bringing hack a load of merchandise,
and Arlington will be blind indeed if
she do not gather a hint from this.
Our desire is to have Arlington for
our shipping point, but it would
seem that, as things exist at present,
it is to our interest to transfer at
least a part of our shipping trade to
The Dalles.
Prosecuting Attorney Jayne has
made an able, conscientious official.
He is zea.ous in the performance of
his duties, and his record will bear
comparison with any of his prede
cessors. Ihe interests or the state
are in good hands when Mr. Jayne
conducts the office of Drosecutmsr
- . o
atlornev. He should pole a larger
vote even than he did two years ago.
The crowded house that greeted
Judge Bennett was a flattering com
pliment to that gentleman. How
ever widely we may (litter from him
in politics, he is one of our distln
guished citizens, and the community
is honored by his nomination. If
Judge Bennett is elected, he
cairv with him to Washington tne
good will of nil his neighbors.
No count) clerk has ever made a
better record than A. M. Kelsay,
He is certainly entitled to a re-elec
tion, and we confidently predict his
success next Monday.
AN UNMERITED CHARGE.
The Dalles Clironirte seems great
Vr worried over Che rombine cf the-
minority parties. It says: "De
uwcracy and Populism joined in
holy wedlock! What will the har
vest be ?" The harvest will . be the
election of a good dean ticket that
wii serve the mass- f the people.
It, will mean the defeat of the Joe
Simon henenmen wfc tell one thing
ut always ower to the dictates of
theiii master. Wasco- News.
This article from the News is a
direct blander at tbe- ffoor estimable
gentlemen eminated for the legisla
ture by the Republicans of Sherman
and Wasco counties. Jobn Michell,
Walter Moort, B. S- Hantington and
N. Jon are not Joe Simon
henchmen. They belong to no man,.
and the political collar has not yet
been forged that would fit their
necks. They are honorable gentle
men, every one of them, and when
eleeted to the legislature will guard
the interests of the people as a sacred
trust.
It is true the last legislature
brought no honor to the state or the
Republican party, but the trouble was-
a lot of Populisis were elected to
seats in that body under the guise of
Republicans. The fault was with
the men, not the principles of the
party. Tbe candidates upon the
Republic 'n ticket in this legislative
district are men whose word in pri
vate .life is aa good as their bond.
They have pledged themselves to
resist all uneconomic measures; to
abolish all useless commissions; to
use their best efforts . to secure for
the people of Sherman county relief
from exorbitant railroad rates, and
to obviate tbe discrimination that is
practised against them.
The trouble in the past has been
too little care was shown in the nom
ination and election of members to
the legislature. Men were chosen
not because of their ability, but for
their willingness to stand in on the
election of a United States senator.
This is not the case now, and if the
people ot Wasco and Sherman coun
ties want to be well represented in
the coming legislature,' let them vote
for Messrs. Moore, iMichell, Hunt
ington and Jones.
v To deny that Judge Bennett is a
free trader is to fly in the face of all
his utterances. A free trader is one
who believes in free trade. Judge
Bennett is wedded to that theory as
he is 10 free silver. . All his speeches
Specialties for Saturday.
25 per cent reduction
on all
LADIES' WRAPPERS
Lights, Darks, Plains or Fancies.
All, from the cheapest to the best, have that one .important feature
confirm this statement. Time and
again he bas said -that free trade
would benefit the people of the coun
try, and followed this remark with
the further one that the finances of
the government were in such a shape
that revenue was necessary from
some source, and so he would con
sent to a tariff for revenue onlv.
He is opposed to the essential prin
ciples of protection, and has de
nounced them wiih all his vigor. If
this does- not make a free trader,
w hat does ?
Should Robert Mays be elected
county judge nexl Monday, the tax
payers of Wasco county will receive
the benefits of an economical admin
istration. Mr. Mays has every qual
ification for this important office. It
will hardly be a case of changing
from an old and tried official to
New Man" when Mr. Mays sue
ceeds Judge Btakeley.
