Newspaper Page Text(Bite (&ve&on iifit CmtcdStatcs and County Official Paper, FRIDAY, JOSS I, 1894. MEN 'ABOVE RSPROACB; . TheimpendingdangertobeKuarded against' in the coming election i pu ting men into places of responsibility wno are -.pot responsioie. a puouc trust is not private snap. Men should by all means be selected who have shown themselves to be efficient; men who have. made a success of their ow private' business ; men who are not con tinually clamoring for office year after year; men who have been tried ana found to be capable ; men whose char acters are above reproach fur honesty and integrity. The men whom the people have placed upon the republi can ticket are possessed with business qualifications, every one or tnem They are not immigrant floating from Blace to place, but are substantial citi- sens. There cannot be one word of discredit uttered against one of them, The people of the county have koowu them lor years, and are willing to en trust the county's welfare to their keeping. Such men reflect credit up on any county or community. TBISR BEFORE TOD VOTE. There are a great mauy things to be considered in the election which lakes place next Monday. Upon the result depends largely the future welfare toe state. If the state should be car- tied by the populists' it would surely bring about revolution in business- circles. It would at once Overran the courts With litigation between the debtor and creditor classes, and there by cause endless confusion of businecs and then, as now, only to a greater ex tent, all lines of business would be suspended to await tire inevitable re sult of ruin to the country and double Slavery to the people. As it is today, the people's burdens are large enough but with the initiative and referendum plan of makine laws and holding spec lal elections therefor, together with the other proposed methods of getting money into circulation.no government on earth could stand. Take, for ex ample, tbe state of Kansas-, where the populists have been in power for just a few years. In that state' tbe publiu debt has increased! three-fold more than during the same length of time prior to populist ascendency to con troL Tbe people of Kansas, at the last election, repudiated tbe populists by defeating them at tbe polls, and if tbe credit and good name of this state . to.be preserved tbe same tbiog will be necessary here next Monday, From a strictly business standpoint. it is essential that Oregon should not be controlled by populists, for in every capacity they have shown their utter incapability of legislating in the inter est of the people. Whatever has been done in this state in tbe Way of ad vancement and whatever growth the state has enjoyed has been under re publican state administrations. These facts, no one will attempt to deny. Again, populist success would in sure Pennoyer's election to tbe United Ktatea senate, which could not possi bly result in any good to the state dur ing Cleveland's administration, which will be in vogue for three years yet. If there is a man in tbe State of Ore gon that would be absolutely worth Jess in the senate during tbe present national administration, it is Sylvester rennoyer. As we have before stated the pop olists platform, if it should become law, wbich practically declares that man cannot collect money loaned on property, would prevent investments of capital id this state and drive out the money already here. . These facts have been demonstrated within the past two years very clearly. On next Monday the people have it in their power to say whether this fair State shall be cleansed from tbe popu list menace which has retarded pro gress in every branch of industry lately. In Columbia county the contest is be tween tbe republican party and pro gressiveness ; on tbe oilier hand it is populism and depression. Which will Jrou chooser REMOVE TBS OBSTRUCTION. There is no sane man in this state trbo cannot see that with populist de feat business would revive and money begin to circulate. The great Cry that there is not money enough in the country is a mistake. There is plenty of money in existance, but it requires Confidence to make it circulate. Where are tbe two millions of dollars that were drawn out of the banks of Portland last summer? Has it been invested in any branch of industry? Has it gone but of the country to buy goods? Every man knos better. It is well known that tbe motley is in biding, stored away in closets, in old stock ings, and in sate depositories. People wbo had money would not let it get out of their sight. Populist legislation would wipe it out of existence, and the people well know it. Tbe populists are directly to blame for tbe scarcity of money to loan- by their threats of legislation tbat would prevent the collection of debts. The pops 'don't like to bear these things, but they are nevertheless true. The nomination of Judge Lord for governor calls to mind an amusing and possibly prophetic inciJent tbat occurred some years ago en the Bull Bun and Sandy stage. Re bad been out on the line and was returning to Portland, wben the driver.Leon Cohen, being in somewhat of a hurry to reach tbe city before dusk, touched up bit horses with the' whip and put them through at a lively rate. -The wheels touched the high and low spots in the road in such rapid Succession as to severely test this springs and keep the occupant of tbe stage bouncing about its interior like a rubber ball. Finally tbe driver slackened his speed, and Judge Lord thrust his bead out to ex postulate, but just then the whip Cracked again, the horses Jumped into a run, and as the Judge was jerked Violeuliy back into his seat, he heard the driver about : "My Lord, sit still, nd yon will get there." "BIRDS OF A FEAT HSR." Davison, Wood aad Merrill, the trio, whose names" amtear ui.on the popu list certificates of nomination filed with the County cfcrlr, are true typei of populism. Thn people of this county wtdl member the populist county conven lion held at Rainier March 10th last and at that convention II. T. Grewell of Uillton, was nominated for repre sentative in the legislature by the reg nlar delegates representing the peo pies party of Columbia county;- that the name of Orewell was associated with said nomination- until April 4lh, or 25 days from the date of said con vention ; that on April 4th, in another part of the county and not In regular convention the name oi ti. I. ureweu was taken off the licknt and M, Davison substituted therefor. Here is the wav Davison's certificate of nom iontion reads : ' "This certifies that a. convention nC dole- rates was beld m the town of Rainier, County of Columbia. Suite of Oregon, on ths 10th day of March, A. v. itm. mat M DnviimiV at aaiil convention aforesaid was duly nominated by said convention as a candidate for repreaeutative to the legis lature." This certificate is signed by M. Davison as chairman and V. A. Wood as secretary of said convention-, an subscribed and sworn to before Frank Merrill, a notary oUbRcurnder bis seal at Clatskanie, Oregon, April 81, 1894. Now, then ; don't the people of (Jul u in bia county know that Davison was not nominated at tbe Rainier convention or anv other regular convention. Slid was not placed ou the ticket until 25 days after said convention had ad journed, and then in another part of tbe county. And do they not know tbat H . T. Greweli was tbe regularly nominated candidate and the only one, at tbat convention. Further, did not Davison and Wood know when they swore that Davison was nom inated at the Rainier convention they were swearing falsely and committing penury. And did not Frank Merrill, notary public, know they were swear ine falsely. This is not the first time W. A. Wood has Violated the statutes of this state. Ha Was in the same business two years ago and B. 8. Hatton de fended him in it. Tbe law is very plain upon this point and we claim that Davison is not upon the ticket in accordance with the Australian ballot law. To this trio add the name of B. S. Hatton and mike it a quartette, or to make it a quintette we suggest in addition tbe names of Copeland Kyser, Massie and Schoonover. POPULIST IKCOirSISTESCT. The pops propose to issue irredeem able paper money based on tbe Wealth of tbe country. This, they claim, will relieve the debt burdens of the people. People of common sense cannot help but see that such a move would add an additional or double burden upon the bone and sinew of this country. Is it possible to raise a wagon out of the mud by doubling its load? The pop ulists are very loud in their howl about high taxes, and yet they advocate this double burden of taxation. Why? Be cause they do not have the welfare the country at heart, and because the party is led by a lot of ex-office bold era Who could nd longer manage to be elected by tbe old parties, and now hope to ride into office by deceiving that class of voters wbo do not read and study these questions for them selves. The populist orators abuse the last legislature, backed up by ren uoyer, for making extravagant appro priations, and in the next breath they tell you tbat wben tbe govern men creates a large amount of money tbey ill get it into circulation by makiug large appropriations. It is presumed these appropriations will bo like they were in tbe cases of Upton and Mc- E wan for populists to take pleasure trips at tbe state's expense. Or per haps like PerJnoyer is doing today- talking politics on a ten-dollar-a-day salary from the state. Such is pop ulism. Tee Oregon City Enterprise, after referring to Massie and Kyser, has this to say regarding populist officials "Does anyone suppose tbat with a full set of . populist officers that the steal ings in Columbia county would evei have come to light? So wonder the populist candidates talk so glibly about crooked work and stealing. They evi dently know how it is done, and their only anxiety is to get a whack at tbe crib. Thus the state at large points the finger of scorn at Columbia county for having elected to office such men two years ago. Last week's Sentinel says that Dav ison, tbe poppie candidate for repre sentative, is out making speeches and t advises people to go and hear bim and then judge whether be is capable to represent you in tbe next legisla ture. Stay at home, Mr. Davison, if you expect many votes, for tbe mo irient you show yourself the Sentinel's proposal gets a negative vote. It, aa the populist claim, the gov ernment can create money and loan it to farmers at two per cent, why can they not loan it without any per cent? It the government can create money, there is no limit to the amount it can create. Consequently it is not neces sary to levy a tax on tbe money be cause it can keep right en creating the interest the same as it created the principal. Wednesday was the day when the nation, at large, paid tribute to the honored dead. Throughout tbe State of Oregon, we are pleased to say the day was observed with appropriate ceremonies, bespeaking tbe esteem with which tbe people of tbe slate hold those who fought to preserve our country. JViLL S. M. Rice meet Mr. Cleeton at any of the places mentioned by tbe latter gentleman and then say what he said in last week's Sentinel? Such statement could only emanate from such an ignorant cur as Rice. Read Mr. Cleeton's letter under the head of The Lie Nailed" in this issue. Tarn is plenty of gold still left in the country for all necessary purposes. The only trouble is that under a threatened pupulist administration it drifts into the banks instead of into tbe peoples' pockets. REWARD FOR IKDUSTRY. There is one plea which the popu lists do most thoroughly enjoy to set un. and it is the statement that one ntwu has no right to posses more of this world's blosaiiiKS than does an other, and thev propose a remedy which practically declares that if oue man has more than another he shall divide. For instance, if a farmer has 80 acres of laud be must give 40' acres of it to the man who has none, and other nronerty tbe same way. This is the teaching of ivouulimn. Doesn't human nature defend the right of every man to accumulate property by his own efforts as the es sence of individual liberty? The con stitution recognises it by investing all ciliaens with freedom of personal ex eriion for the' promotion of their ow welfare and prosperity, according to tbe measure of individual ability. The hope of profit and reward is the basis oi all progress, anu any tneory wnicn antagonizes that idea is fulse and per nicious. We have prospered beyond precedent, ar a people, by reason of the sort of liberty which gives to every m'au the right to apply bis energies in anv direction, with the assurance of protection in the possession and en ioyment of all that ho may acquire The inequalities that we see do not Signify, as the populists try to teach us, that the philosophy of our political . i i.--...: :i system anu imiusirrai irurwru is u logical and unjustly discriminating, They are unavoidable under any sys tem, and simply mean that men ditto iu degree of capacity, and that they cannot be artificially tirade and kept equal iu that respect. We tail to seeany thing wrong in one mau having more than another if be gets it by his own energy. The right to accumulate wealth does not condemn any class or any persou to poverty. It merely oners the inducement that is the principal secret of success; and some meu profit by it more than others because of different circumstances. OFF TBE TRACK, The Sentinel man got several feet out of the "middle of the road" last week when he stated that it was a fact that T. J. Cleeton received bis nomi nation by pledging himself to create the office of recorder for this county. This was simply anothor of those sim pie, pure Jies wnicn Van does so l Bor on ghly enjoy telling, now van, yon lied, and you know it. The persons interested in this affair can and will prove conclusively that the statements to that effect are blank, unvarnished lies. The very fact tbat Mr. Rice lowed bis name to go before the con ventlon is evidence tbat there is no truth in the statement that Rice had been sidetracked Lfurther, Jaa. Muckle, whom it was said, bad Cleeton pledge himself, publishes a statement defying any man to come before bim and make the statement and he will prove the whole thing to be false. - Moreover,!. J. Cleeton challenges S. M. Rice bring the man before him wbo told him of this transaction, as it appeared in the Sentinel. Read Mr. Cleeton's challenge in this issue. And, not un til the Monday last preceding the con ventlon was Cleeton aware of tbe fact that his friends Were going to propose his name to the convention. And further yet, Van, if you had the first inkling of sense you would know that it is out of the general order of busi ness for a representative to create law of that nature and create tbe of ficial, and create the date for that cre ated official to take charge of that cre ated office. You may think so be cause your father Davison told you that be could do sometbing of tba kind. Van, your argument is as sbal low as your brain, and bears out very plainly that when you cau t see i tree yon will grab at a straw. Yon editorial (?) is tbin brain food, indeed No one should be in doubt as to the ticket you should vote next Monday, A great republican victory will dem oust rate to eastern capital that tbe crank populists do not own the state, by any means, and money will once more come here. Tbe tidings of a re' publican victory will have tbe result to overthrow theorists and fanatics and will be a blow to the rasping pop ulistic doctrine. It is in tbe hands of the people, however, and the ballot box is the supreme authority. Thb government should own the railroads and banks, say tbe populists not tbe socialists. Yes, and the fac tones, and the stores, and the barber shops, aud tbe farms, and the steam boats, and the peanut stands, and the hotels, and other industries. Knock the ambition of man, elect Pecnoyer president, give him more servants, and let him declare himself king. Our populist friends claim that the government stamp on a piece of paper makes it money. Well, well, suppose our populist friend is oassing a corral where mules are being branded, and the man using tbe iron stamps it on Mr. populist, does that make him mule? Oue is just as sensible as the other. Thb State of Oregon is now paying Governor Fennoyer a salary of 1U day while he is making populist speeches. Why don't you pops bowl extravagance at Pennoyer? Because yon haven't tbe fairness to own the truth. Thb people of this county have had a taste of populism, and have arrived at tbe conclusion that a mild dose is sufficient. Massie, Scboonbver, and Kyser have killed populism in Colum bia county. About the only legacy which tbe populists of Columbia county will have wben they are driven into retirement on the 4th of June, is the fond recol lection of once electing a sheriff who has their spoils. The pops denounce the "inte-mill bill" as a steal of $190,000. Governor Pennoyer recommended its passage and signed it and all the democrats in the legislature, save three, voted for it. Wait! Wait and watch 1 1 Wait, the election re- watch and listen for turns. Listen loud. Wheh tbe Sentinel man reads the eleotion returns he will write in a dif ferent key. ; . Wins R, 8. Hatton was Iu St. Helens last Friday w oUVred' linn space,, free of clVaru, to publish any reply lie might have to make in reference to the charae of brib ery, bnt lit remained silent. In1 ths ClaU kanle Chief ws llnd in ths shape of a peti tion signrd bv soma cltiiims of Olarskenie. saving that they believe he did- It in the iu tereat of "humanity," lo. In this ItsMins Hatton- does not deny ths charge but claims the rU;ht to take the law Into his own hands and sit as judge and jury both in compromising crime. It ths people would' elect him sheriff his task would be easier. Our populist friends have a great deal to say about "wo taxpayers." Who, hi the name of common sense, do they refer to? The populists pay a comparatively small amount of taxes. The names of Davison and Detriok are not to be found upon the assess ment roll at all. All tjt0 taxes Chat have been paid by the populist candi dates up to noon yesterday is (he $16.83 paid by George Fowler. On Hie re publican ticket five candidates have paid $144.50. In fact the republicau caudHlate have all paid their tax ex cept one; while on the populist ticket only oue has paid. Yet they talk about "we taxpayers." The county is today paying- 8 per cent, rwbereat on every dollar of luxes unpaid by cniiuly warrants being ouUlacding and un paid for want of funds. Why don't 'we taxpayer" relieve trio county of this burden try pay nig their taxes. Ma. Copklano says in his article in last week's Sentinel : "I am not seek ing a position, nor do I propose to empty my pockets setting up cheap whisky to get office, that I may fill them befoie I get out." Jo. you are on the wrong ticket; for there has not been a populist official in this county yet but has endeavored to fill . his pocket, and that very fast, too. Your very utterance is an implication thai you are in it for what you can get out of the office The populists want the government to loan money to farmers at two per cent interest. Why this discrimina tion? Why not also loan to the poor fellows who cannot afford to have farms to all and at one per cent? How can the government loan when it has to borrow? Knox made more republican votes than he did populisttwo to one. It is really a loss to tbe republican parly that he went awav so soon as he did. Cleeton branded 8. M. Kit e as a liar and proved it by Itice's own wilnessess, in the presence of tbt two principals and their friends, yesterday evening. The question at issue was the accusation by Rice in last week's Sentinel tbat Cleeton had agreed to have tbe office of recorder created if nomi nated fnr representative. The crowd went away satisfied that somebody had lied. ONE OF THE DELEGATES. Editoi Mirr. I desire to sav afew words in regard to the very indefinite piece of gos sip wnicn Mrs. urundytB M. Klce)favored us with in the la it issue of ths "Sentinel." He says "thiv went to Rice, etc." Now what we want to know is who went to Rice and afterward to Cleeton? Why don't he give us the whole of the story f Or had that part of the story not been made up yet? I am not doubting 8. M. R.'s word, uossips generally tell the truth. It is "thst" tbat teli tbe gostip who make up the story. I presume 8. M. could tell a that so and so told him; that so and so told btm. etc. Now rs to the republican convention If 3. M. thinks that "thst" could have con trolled that convention, it must be that re publican conventions were made up of dif ferent stuff wben "B. M. and his friends rsed to meet in then in yean gone by." Perhaps at that time "thiv" could have dictated who tbe e invention should nomi nate. If a I tbt delegate were like ' 8. fti. and his friend" I tbink it likely that this wondenul "thst" could bare told them who to voie for. At this convention beld in fit. Helens, on April 4. ISM. "thkt" did not show un. At this convention tbe delegates were men wbo knew their own minds sod nlo the wishes of their constituents, and also the wishes of tbe republican party, which was to place in nomination men wbo we will not be obliged to Bi.svaT to tbe office; men who will con fer honor and dignify to the office; men who will be controlled and ituidej bv one supreme rle.ire to perform their duty and promote the public good. "Men whom the lust of office does not kill; Men whom the spalls of ofttae cannot boy; Men who possess opinions and Willi Men who hare honor; men who will not lis." The nomination of T. J. Cleeton was the result of a large majority of the delegates, and of ths people of the county, believing tbat he was the man wbo could carry the republican banner to victory .and who. when be shall have served his term in the legisla ture, we sbalt be proud to say, "I voted for him." I feel safe to sav no man was nominated as the result of trickery or chicanery, but each man was nominated with a full under standing of tbe seriousness of the situation and of toe absolute necessity of placing in nomination men wbo were known to be careful, thoughtful, capable, and honest. And this is casting no reflection on anv other candidate before ths convention. The defeated candidates were generally of as good timber as ths county possesses. Once more I sav. there was no barsain. and anv sensible man in this county knews tbat such a bargain would nave defeated any canal date. C. H. Nswth. Vernonia, Oregon. PERIS. R. H.

Cleeton at Mainvifle last week on the money question was Co tbe point in every respect. Mr. Cleeton gave the populists a chance to cor rect any statement he might make, but there were no contradictions made while he was here, however the populists found plenty to say after he had gone.
