The Chronicle has no desire to
"chew the rag" with the Oregonian
over its falsification of the primary
returns of Waco county. It re
peats, however, that the Oregonian
lid falsify thes; returcs by injecting
into the Wasco county primaries an
element that was not thought of for
a single moment, fo far as The
Chronicle is informed or believes.
The "McBride influence failed utter
ly to appear" in the same sense and
io the same sense only that any other
conceivable influence that nobody
seemed to be thinking of '-failed
utterly to appear." The Oregonian
was after Mr. McDride's scalp. The
Wasco county Republicans were
doing what lay nearest tbam and
were not, to The Cukomcle's
knowledge, thinking of Mr. McBride.
When the Oregonian says it has
positive and authoritative informa
tion that the result of the primaries
here was reached "without promise,
direct or indirect, to tbe mousing
senator" it states what The Chkox
icle never thought of denying. The
result was reached, too, without
promise, direct or indirect, to Ex
Governor l'ennoyer. And just m
tbe same sense; and such information
would have been equally appropriate
in an edited dispatch. But enough
on this line. Tbe Oregonian's at
tack of yesterday has afforded a good
laugb for The Dalles folks, and not
at the Chkoxicle man's expense
either. It is time the Oregonian
should be informed that it is barking
up tbe wrong tree. Now it must be
understood that The Chronicle is
no more the "organ" of Mr. Moody
than it is of Mr. McBride, and neither
of these gentlemen is to be held re
sponsible for anything it may say;
but if the Oregonian really thinks
that the "resentment" of the editor
of The Chrxiclk "at the effect of
Mr. Moody's victory on tbe McBride
campaign is not in the interest of
Mr. Moody but in the interests of
McBride," we respectfully refer tbe
Oregonian to Mr. Moody for better
information. And if Mr. Moody, or
any of Mr. Moody's friends will say
the Oregonian knows what it is talk
ing about in this respect, even the
least little bit, The Chronicle, here
and now, promises to enlist, horse,
foot and dragoons, with the Ore
gonian in its campaign against Mc
Kinley and the Republican policy of
a protective tariff.
Senator Simon will vote against
tbe Puerto Rtcan tariff bill principal
ly because he thinks the overwhelm
ing sentiment of the people of bis
state is in accord witU him in Ibis
determination. He warns bis Re
publican colleagues that the passage
of tbe bill will cost the party a great
many votes. This may all be very
true, but the senator's reasons for
deserting his party are those of tbe
mere politician. Oregon bad a sen
ator once who dared to brave public
opinion and vote as his judgment
and conscience dictated. Time justi
Ged his action and today there is no
more honored name in Oregon history
than that of J. N. Dolpb. It had
representatives that kept their ear to
the ground as Senator Simon does,
and voted according to what they
believed to be the "overwhelming
scLtimcnt" of the people. Time
condemned their action nnd the party
repudiated them. Mr. Simon mis
takes the Oregonian for "the over
whelming sentiment cf tbe people."
He has bis reward in that paper's
present approval; but the mistake
tray cost him his head later op.
"The Republican paity is assailing
and the Democrats sre defending the
constitution and the supreme court,"
says Terry Belmont, the New York
Democratic Plutocrat. But be adds
with fine force: "Those who have
themselves attacked the supreme
court, standing on the Chicago plat
form, are disqualified from leading
fn such on issue.'
But tbe Repub-1
licaos stand tovraid the constitution
where thej always stood. If thiy
i-Uiip the light of congress to legis
late for our new possessions and that
congress Is limited in this right only
by the prohibitions of the constitu
tion, '.bey claim only what was
claimed and octed upon by Jefferson,
Monroe, Jackson, Polk, Pierce,
Lincoln and Seward. If that is "as
sailing the constitution," the Demo
crats Lave Icl in the assault from
Jefferson to Pierce, and the consti
tution is assailed today aud has been
assailed in every territory that has
ever come under the flag.
It is hard to believe that the an
nouncement made through the New
Voik Woild that Admiral Dewey is
"only too willing" to enter the field
as a candidate for tLc presidential
nomination is really true. And it is
still more difficult to believe that the
admiral could Lave uttered the twad
dle that tbe World puts in his mouth.
Be that ts it may, the announcement
comes too laie. There was a time
but it is past forever. Dewey is a
great soldier and the nation will ever
honor bim as such, but he will never
be president.
Speaking last Monday on behalf of
the Pueito Rican tariff bill, Senator
Spooner said : "The proposition that
the constitution extends of its own
force over acquired territory was in
vented in the interest of slavery by
Mr. Calhoun. Mr. Webster opposed
it in the interest ot liberty and in tbe
interest of tbe war of the rebellion.
I had supposed that after slavery had
been laid away we had heard the
last of this contention, which is by
no means new as many people seem
to suppose."
Senator Simon says the over
whelming sentiment of his people
compels bim to vote against the
Puerto Rican tariff bill. Malcolm
A. Moody voted for the bill. Since
then Republican conventions have
been held in ten counties out of six
teen in his district, and if from these
o:ie single vote will go to the con
gressional convention against Mr.
Moody there is not a man in Oregon
knows it. The senator had better
put his ear to the ground again.
There is little comfort for Demo,
crats la the municipal election re
turns of last Monday. While the
party made some gains in o few
cities, notably in Michigan, in Ohio,
the home of McKinley and Mark
Ilanna, tbe Republicans made gains
almost everywhere, electing in some
places officers where they had never
elected one before.
There is hardly a doubt that Con
gressman Tongue will be nominated
to succeed himself. Tongue is a
man of unquestioned ability and in
defatigable energy. The first con
gressional district will try a dozen
congressmen before tncy will find
Tongue's equal in these two import
ant elements of character.
"Shrewd Senator Simon," "Good
Politician," "Accurato Gauger of
Public Sentiment." "Exactly Cor
rect, Mr. Si mon." These are a few
of the endearing epithets that the
Me Too Telegram applies to the
Oregon senator for deserting his
paity. Their cooing tenderness mclls
us to tears.
Democrats are said to be again
agitating tbe question of starting a
Democratic daily in Portland. What
for, we should like to know? Is not
the Oregonian, with a free-trade
editor in chief and a Democratic
managing editor.Democratic enough ?
Oregon Democrats are mighty hard
to please.
The sight of the Sulzers and
Lentzes storming heaven and earth to
make political capital out of the sup
pression of riot, anarchy and murder
by tbe Democratic governor of
Idaho, is one for gods and men to
gaze at in astonishment and awe.
Tbe Telegram wants to know who
is to supply the Democrats with suf
ficient sense to enable them to win
next fall. Couldn't the Telegram do
it? It lias been trying bard enough.
Queen Victoria wants a new grand
son of hers christened Patrick. "Pad
dy Guelph" ought to strike a soft
spot in the warm Irish heart.
PASSED THE SEX ATE.
The house tariff bill for Puerto
Rico, after being amended in the
senate by the addition of the bill
providing a form of civil govern
ment, and by important modifica
tions of its tariff provisions, passed
the senate Monday by a vote of
40 tool. The vote in favor of the
bill was Republican, while tbe 31
negative votes were cast by Demo
crats, Populists, Silvcntts, and by
six Republicans, two of whom are
well known expansionists. Mr. Hoar,
another anti-expansionist, was paired
against the bill, anJ Mr. Beveridge,
of Indiana, was paired in favor of it.
Senator Simon voted against it and
Senator McBride for it.
The amended bill takes off 85 per
cent of the tariff duties now in force
between the United States and
Puerto Rico, and provides that tbe
remaining 15 per cent shall be taken
off whenever tbe Puerto Rican legis
lature shall have enictcd laws pro
viding a different revenue system
for the support of the insular govern
ment. The till further provides
that, in any event, there shall be
absolute free trade betweeu Puerto
Rico and United States from and
after March 1, 1902, and the con
tinued free entry into Puerto Rico
of the United States products now
admitted free under the military ad
ministration. With these amend
ments the bill is in substance a free
trade measure, since it places it in
the power of tbe Puerto Ricans,
through their legislature, to have
free trade whenever they want it, by
tbe substitution of such revenue
measures as they deem proper. The
Republican majority which passed
the bill declares that 15 per cent
being less than one-sixth of the
Dingley rate upon a part of the
products entering into tbe commerce
of the United States and Puerto
Rico, is simply a temporary revenue
measure, and that this method ot
raising revenue will fall more lightly
upon distressed Puerto Ricans than
the direct taxation proposed by the
opposition to the bill.
It is interesting to know that the
postal money order department is
being used quite extensively in many
of our large cities as a savings bank.
The depositor makes the order pay
able to himself and the receipt takes
the place of a deposit book. The
order is always good and like a bank
cbeck may be cashed at any poslofflce
upon proper identification of the
holder. Travelers from one part of
the country to another also find tbe
new system very convenient. De
posits made payable to self are made
at starting out and at at any point
when money is needed an order is
presented at the local office and the
money obtained.
Increases in wages continue to be
fashionable. The Notional Tube Co.
has just given its second advance
within six months, of 10 per cent to
more than 20,000 employees. An
other instance comes from the York
Cotton Mills, of Yorkville. S. C,
where 3 per cent has been taken
from the stockholders' dividend and
given to tbe operatives. "Open tbe
mints," said Bryan in "J6. "Open
the mills," echoed back McKinley.
Which knew most of the disease and
hew to cure it?
The money circulation of the
country, which was 11,509,725,200
on July 1, 1896, had increased to
12,002,931,791 on March 1, 1900.
This was a gain of nearly five hun
dred million dollars in tbrce years
and a half. Of this increase 1295.-
150,584 was in gold coin and gold
certificates. During the same length
of time, what could the free silvcritcs
had done if they had secured control
of the government? According to
their own theories, they would have
bad a largo number, of "50-cent
dollars to pay debts with."
The man who in any measure con
tributes to the promotion of content
ment and harmony between capital
and labor does more for humanity
than all the walking delegates and
revolving politicians under the stars.
It is said that tons of campaign
literature are stacked up in tbe Dem-
ooratic headquarters at Portland.
Tbe literature consists of extracts
from the Congressional Record and
treats upon imperialism usually.
E ch bunch of the stuff is mailed
under tbe fraDk of Senator Jone?.
Copies of the registration books are
on file at the headquarters, and every
man who has registered is sent a few
samples of "anti" documents. An
other campaign of education is on.
"What Lincoln was to his country
in his day, McKinley is to the
country today; aud tbe nation which
expressed ils endorsement of Lincoln
by re-electing'bim to tbe'presidency,
will set a similar mark of approbation
on the latest of his distinguished
successors." So says American Com
merce and Industries, the organ of
the commercial tiavelers of the
United States.
Specking of tbe late decision of
the supreme court in the case of
Otis Savage, the La Grande Chron
icle says: "Savage comes from a
good pioDeer fami'y, has always
maintained his innocence, is in ill
health, and tbe writer believes that a
petition for his pardon would bo
signed by all who know him."
Colonel Bryan ought to have taken
counsel of past experience and
steered clear of Oregon. It will be
remembered tbat the colonel re
marked after bis defeat in '96 that
he had lost nearly every state where
he made speeches and carried all
that he kept away from.
Tbe fact tbat Bryanism thiives
best when poverty and distrcsss are
most prevalent is one weighted with
food for profound reflection by every
man who loves his country and its
flag.
PROHIBITIONISTS' CONVENTION.
A Full County Ticket Nominated Thla
Morning.
The Prohibition county convention
met in the court bouse today at 10 a. m.
The convention was called to order by
Field Secretary E. G. Miller. Od mo
tion R. B. Hood was elected chairman
and W. C. Smith secretary. The chair
appointed Messrs. Miller and Smith as
a committee on platform, and on the re
port of the committee the convention
adopted the following:
We, tbe representatives of the Prolii
bitioo party of Wasco county, in conveu
tion assembled, reaffirm our allegiance
to tho state and national Prohibition
party. We declare the suppression of
the manufacture of and traffic in intox
icating liquors for beverage purposes to
be the most important iseue before the
American people. We believe the re
moval of this, the mightieet evil known
to the world, cannot be brought about
except through a political party created
for and pledged to this end.
Thus delaring and believing, we Invite
to party fellowship all those who in this
with us agree.
The convention then proceeded to
nominate the following candidates for
county offices :
For sheriff to be filled by central
committee.
For clerk Dayton Taylor.
For county judge E. J. Collins.
For assessor A. W. Quinn.
For surveyor W. E. Campbeli.
For coroner Wm. Michel).
For school superintendent George W
Brown.
For treasurer Wm. Ileisler.
For commissioner W. D. Richards.
For joint representatives Leslie But
ler, Joeiali Burlingame and Roy Black
aby. Supervisor of R. D. No. 13 James
Cameron. .
The convention elected the following
central committee: R B Hood. Wm
Heieler, E J Cdllins, Leelie Butler and
Dayton Taylor.
Delegates to the state convention R B
Hood, Dayton Taylor, O V White, Les
lie Butler, W C Smith. A W Quinn,
W E Campbell, E J Collins, Frank
Spaulding, D J Woodworth and Robert
Warner.
The central committee was given
power to fill any vacancies that may
occur.
At the Students' Literary Club meet
ing last night a committee was appoint
ed to confer with the directors of the
Commercial Club to see If some arrange
ment could not be made for the joint
nee of the bowling alleys and gymnasi
um of the Commercial Club, besides the
exclusive nse of a reading room and lec
ture room to be fitted up, if there is
sufficient space, on the same floor. It
Is tolerably certain that tho new club
will be organised along the lines of the
Y. M. C. A. The committee appointed
last night is authorized toconterwitb the
churches and see what encouragement
might be expected for t!ie scheme from
that quarter. Meanwhile there is a
splendid opportunity for some one who
has more money than St. Teler will
allow to pass through the celestial sates.
to make himself solid with that official j
by contributing some of it to help the
establishment of this most worthy
scheme.

point on the O. R. & X. road near the
John Day; thence up that river to Rock
Creek: thence to Canyon Citv, the
terminus. D. R. Badd, May Enrixht
and E. E. Lytle are tbe incorporators,
and Mr. Lytle says the road will be
built at the earliest pcsaible moment
through Gilliam county. The road will
be known as the Oregon Southern. The
Telegram says this road "will tap the
Columbia Southern as well as The Dalles
Southern at Canyon City." Of course
all these lines are in the air, but just
why they should all' meet at Canyon
City or all extend to that point is hard
to conceive. When they meet there,
however, we shall know all about it.
The steamer Reliance, of the D. P. &
A. N. Co., was launched at Supple's
yard in Portland at 10:30 o'clock
Wednesday morning. The ways were
swabbed the evening before and every
thing put in readiness for the morning.
There were a number of spectators on
the ground. None of the company offi
cials were present. The boat stuck at
the bottom of the ways, but was polled
off shortly before noon. Her boilers
were pumped up and in the afternoon
she bad steam up. She will be ready
for her trial trip within three or four
days. Little remains to be done on the
vessel except to All tier cabins. If the
trial Is successful, she will go on The
Dalles-Portland route within a we?k.
