WHERE THE BLAME BELONGS
The threatened split in the Democra
tic party over the financial question,
says the Salem Statesman, is serving
the izood purpose of fixing the blame for
the distressful condition of the United
States treasury, and the piling op of a
great bonded-debt in a time of peace,
where it belongs.
The outlook is for a warm time in the
Chicago convention, and it has been pre
dicted by accredited Democratic authori
ty mat mere win oe two separate con
ventions and two nominees for the pre
sidencyone standing for the financial
policy of the present administration and
the other representing the large wine of
'the party desiring the free coinage o
.silver.
This condition that confronts them
-embarrassing to the leading Democrats
who do not sympathize with either of
these extreme factions. One of this
das says :
"No people of ordinary education and
intelligence can see the payment of
- colosal war debt continue uninterrupted
ly iluring the thirty years which follow
the attainment of peace, and then see
this process suddenly stopped and the
debt begin to grow rapidly again, with
out inclining to condemn the policy re
sponsible for it. It is no wonder that
the Democrats, still inflamed against
riches and prosperity by the party ora
tory of 1892, Mr. Cleveland being incom
parably the leader of such excitement,
should not vow destrnction on the
money standard which the same leader
tells them has compelled the new bonds
4 r PlMVAlanrl'a anneal trtr thft ornlri
standard are feathers before the storm
The deliberate policy of - misrepresen
tation entered upon almost at the begin-
, Ding of his present term and pursued
with studied faithfullness to the cause ef
mendacity, by Mr. Cleveland and bis
underlings, while it has resulted in de
ceiving a lew xtepuuiicanB anxious ior
such deception, and in scaring some of
the finicky old maids of finance, has not
been successful in blinding the eyes of
the great majority who favor protection
and progress, nor of the thinking, act
. inn men of affairs and toil of the country
while it has failed of its' purpose, it
has well nigh destroyed the party 'that
honored this conspicuous disciple of
Ananias with the loftiest position of
honor within the gift of any people.
Thus is the mortal crime of ingrati
tude added to the sin of lying in order
to further selfish aims.
The idol of the coming campaign will
be the plumed knight of protection and
prosperity, not the ' discredited hero of
hia country's distrees. - ,'
The same events that have elevated

of honor the brow of William McKinley

Cleveland.
tiie penalties of Democratic misrule. In
these times it must not f xpecfc improve
ment of its rivers and harbors. Im
provement is not the existing order.
Nor can our coasts be given protection.
The country must be pinched, because
che treasury must be saved.
This ia not the first veto of a river and
harbor bill by President Cleveland. He
vetoed a bill during his first adminis
tration, and as a result of the stoppage
of work on the Columbia river great
damage foil upon the' improvements.
Like loss and damage will again be suf
fered. But. the people are becoming
hardened to tbcee reverses. It used to
be that a bank fa lure, or the crash of a
large commercial concern, was a sensa
tion, but that is the case no longer. As
in war, many become so hardened and
infatuate ! with horrors that they long
to continue the fighting forever, so in
these times, many seem so fascinated
with hard times and crashing banks and
business houses that they are clamorous
for the continuance of the same conditions.
TRIUMPHANT REPUBLICANISM
WASCO MAINTAINS HER LEAD.
MR. CLEVELANL'S VETO.
Ab expected. President Cleveland has
seloed the river and harbor bill. The
situation required it. The treasury is
confronted with a deficit for the last
year of nearly $40,000,000, says the
Spokesman-Review, and the revenue
system of the government has been so
bungled and butchered that there is no
immediate prospect of relief.
The country is now paying another of
The voters of Wasco county did
nobly yesterday. At this hour it
looks as if the entire coonty ticket
is saved to the Republicans. The
verdict rendered yesterday can he
interpreted as meaning that Wasco
county believes firmly in the princi
pics of Republicanism and refuses
to swing in the direction of Popu
lism or Democracy.
As The Chronicle has reiterated
agrtin and again, the ticket named by
the county convention was one of
the best ever given to the voters for
their consideration and the large
majorities the Republicans received
indorse the work of the delegates,
Wasco county has repudiated popu
lism, and sends word to the rest of
the state that the banner county of
Eastern Oregon can be depended
upon to remain loyal to Republican
principles.
We congratulate the Republican
candidates upon their deserved sue
cess.

The lowered flag, the muffled drum,
. The bugl.-call in mouriii 'g tone,
The stately march ol warrior men,
And, mingling all, the nations moan.
I saw them stand in broken line,
Those heroes, now a dwindling band,
Their whitened locks and drooping forms,
. The blessed heritage of our land.
The self same men at Lincoln's call
Rushed to save a country torn
By rebel strife and rebel yell,
Ah dark the prospect and forlorn!
The men that fought at Gettysburg
So glorious those days and deeds!
When thartinn Pickett's awful charge.
They filled full well their country's needs.
The men that made the weary march
From Georgia to the sunlit sea.
And broke the rebel's tottering rule
And saved the land for you and me.
Ah youth ! the privilege is thine
To honor yet the noble throne
Whose Mood was spilt on Southern fields
While fixating slavery 's devilish wrong.
The years are passing. Hear me weU;
The roll-call dwindles oh how fast!
The noble veterans soon will be
But memories of a sucrel past.
The flowers are strewn.on soldiers' graves.
Bow little care the sleeping dead !
Their rest is Bweet; their work well done.
What better words could e'er be said 1 . -. ,
While still there may let honor flow
In ceaseless measure full and free
To those brave men. the noble men
Who saved our land for you and me.

The buele call in mournful tone,
Tne stately march of warrior men.
And, mingling all, the nations moan.

The result of the election through
out the state indicates victories all
along the line for the Republicans.
The election of Ellis is conceded in
the Second district and that of
Tongue in the First. Bean, as was
expected, won hands down. Pen
noyer will rule the destiny of Port
land, while the Mitchell Republican
ticket is in the lead. The conditions
in the Second district are particu
larly satisfactory, and the people
have frowned upon the bolter and
the bolter's supporters.
The lesson that can be learned
from Ellis' election teaches that the
people realize the great issue before
the dountry, and by their ballots en
dorsed the protective policy the
foundation stone in the Republican
structure.' The fight against Ellis
was a bitter one, and should he tri
umph, as there is now every indica
tion that he will, f will be because
his campaign was fought on the pro-,
tective issue.
. With the exception of Mr. Moore,
whose election i3 in doubt, Wasco
county is sure to be represented in
the lcgislatnie by men of firm ad
herence to Republican principles and
acknowledged worth.
The triumph of the Republican
ticket over the Be mo -Popu list fu
sion is a cause of much satisfaction.
The campaign has been fairly
fought and handsomely won. The
Chronicle, with hundreds ot other
Republicans, takes pleasure in say
ing that light has triumphed ana
champions cf unsound theories have
been defeated. .
A GREAT ATTRACTION.
Klllon and Dollta Nobles to Visit Onr
City With Their Own Company.
The announcement that this well
known actor and author is to play at
Tbe Dalles has caused no little excite
ment among our amusement-loving
public. Mr. Nobles is known on tbe
American stage today as our represen
tative player ana playwright. He is a
most versatile writer, as well as a great
actor. His wholesome wit. bright hu
mor and breadth of imagination are
something remarkable. ' He will be
supported by his pretty and charming
little wife, Dollie Nobles, and his own
company, which in its entirety is one of,
if not the best, dramatic and comedy
organizations on the Pacific coast this
season.
The engagement has necessarily been
limited to three nights, the first play
being Mr. Nobles' beautiful and pictur
esque American drama, "From Sire to
Ben," a play that has won for the author
world-wide fame. It is an interesting
piece, with a story that at once com
mands the attention of tbe auditor. It
will be mounted with some new scenery
which Manager Kinersly has prepared,
und all in all will prove one of the most
eveutful performances ever presented
njlhis city.
The company will arrive here to
day and the first performance will take
place tomorrow (Wednesday) June 3d.
G. W. M'COY LOCKED UP.
The Founder of the Fmnons Ditch Is
Mow lit the County Jail.
The inconsistencies of yesterday's
voting were everywhere apparent
Many ballots were found where the
voter had indicated his choice for
Northup and then voted xfor Popu
lists on the legislative ticket, thus
showing a straddle on the money
question wider than that attempted
by either of the great parlies. Just
how a man who favors the gold
standard could vote for Populists to
the legislature, who would, if elect
ed, vote for free silver and fiat
money, is past comprehension.
In the fall of 193 a son of Mr. T. A
McFarland, a prominent merchant of
Live Oak, Sutter county, Calif., was
taken with a very heavy cold. The
pains in his chest were so severe that be
had spasms and was threatened with
pneumonia. His father gave bim sev
eral large doses of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, which broke up the cough and
cured him. Mr. McFarland says when
ever his children have croup he invari
ably gives them Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and it always cures them. He
considers it the best cough remedy in
the market. For sale by Blakeley &
Houghton's Drug store.
The Discovery Saved Ills Life.
Mr. G. Caillouttee, Druggist, Bearers-
ville, 111. eays: "To Dr. King's New
Diecovery I owe my life. Was taken
with La Grippe and tried all' the physi
cians for miles about, but of no avail
and was given np and told I could not
live. Having Dr. King's New Discovery
in my store I sent for a bottle "and began
its use and from the first dose began to
get better, and after using three bottles
was up and about again.' It is worth its
weight in gold. We won't keep store or
house without it." Get a free trial at

Mr. G. W. McCoy, founder of the Mc
Coy ditch, occupies a cell in the county
jail. He was arrested Saturday in Port
land by Sheriff Driver and brought to
this city, on a warrant charging him
with obtaining money nnder false pre
tenses. Many of the workmen who
have been employed on the ditch are
now in the city, and, by the way, voted
at the polls yesterday.. We are in
formed that as long as these men are
here Mr. McCoy will, remain in jail, as
the officers fear personal violence. The
McCoy ditch workmen failed to. get
their money for labor performed, though
who is to blame will yet have to be as
certained. ' K. of P. Election.
