ST. HELENS. ORKGO, MAY 8.
OPINION SUDDENLY CHANGED.
Since hi nomination for congress
In the first district Mr. Thomas II.
Tongue has almost daily received the
plaudits of the OregonWn for being so
"sound" on the money question. But
last week Mr. Tongue made a speech 1
in East Portland in which, anion
other things, he said :
"The republican -psrty always dealt with
silver In a friendly spirit, and tudeavored
to get onr own product hi circulation, either
in coined silver or in paper representing It.
If restored to power, it will put in circula
tion every dollar of silver that it can main
tain at par with gold, and it will not put iu
circulation one dollar more, and ought not
to do so. It will not sustain the present
policy of contraction, nor do I believe it
will permit the enormous circulation of
small bills."
In Monday's Oregonian, under the
head of "A Total Misconception," Mr.
Tongue is accused of showing a misap
prehension of the monetary situation.
Then taking the Oregonian as a stand
ard by which republicanism is to be
measured, all else being populism, Mr.
Tongue cannot be classed as a repub
lican, because all who differ from the
Oregonian are classed by that paper
as populists. If the Oregonian will re
fer back to iu files of less than eighteen
months ago it will discover that Mr.
Tongue has repeatedly declared him
self in favor of coining a greater
amount of silver than heretofore, or,
in other words, he would coin every
dollar that could be kept on a parity
with gold, and that he believed that
the limit of coinage might be extended
to include the product of the mines of
the United States. The difference of
opinion, however, is not so much as to
the question of parity of the two
metals, as to the amount that may be
coined and still maintain the parity.
Let us look at what Mr. Tongue
said in a letter to the Oregonian on
November 3, 1894, upon the silver
question, in which he pleads for an in
creased coinage of silver in the follow
ing language: .
"Heretofore onr silver mines have been a
vast source of wealth ; they have furnished
employment to thousands of men, who be
came consumers of the products of the
labor of others, and have furnished a good
share of tbe increased circulation needed
by a constantly expanding population to do
its increasing business. Nearly all of this
has been overthrown by legislation in the
last year. We have reached a condition
nnknown to our previous history. Our
silver mines are absolutely worthless to us
as producers of money metal. If run to
their full capacity, not one ounce of their
products could pasa through the mints of
the United States, or get into circulation
amenc our citizens as money. Not a dollar
of additional silver can get into circulation
as money, except by redeeming a treasury
note, When the silver is got out tbe treas
ury note is redeemed and destroyed, and
the circulation remains the same. A vast
amount of silver money b lost and destroyed
every year by abrasion an J by accident
and there is ns way to supply the loss.
Constantly increasing population demands
increased silver circulation and the demand
is ignored. On the contrary, as the popula
tion increases, the silver coin, by abrasion
and destruction, constantly decreases. This
vill lead Inevitably, if long continued, to
gold monometallism. With tariff laws de
signed to increase onr imports, while ex
ports are diminishing enormously in value,
the products of our gold mines, inadequate
even to pay the interest on our public,
private and corporate indebtedness to Eu
rope, what will be the endT And where
will the supply be obtained?
'A continuance of this legislation means
constant contraction. Scarce money means
dear money, with Increased purchasing
power; it means a decrease in the price of
every other specie of property, real and
personal in the country, and in the city; it
means decrease in the wages of all classes
of labor, skilled and unskilled, msnuel and
professional. But worst of all it means an
enormous increase in indebtedness of every
class, public and private, with dimuhed
power to pay. It means confiscation of tbe
property of the debtor for the benefit of the
creditor. It will make the United States s
paradise to tbe class of people who are ex
clusive creditors, bnt it will make it a hell
to everybody else."
The above would seem to indicate
that Mr. Tongue was very much of
silver man, and that all tbe recent
twaddle about bis "sound money"
ideas is entirely imaginary. It is true
that the convention which nominated
liim contained a majority in favor of
the gold standard, but this is not sur
prising iu this- year of inconsistency.
The convention which nominated Mr.
Ellis is also said to have favored the
gold standard, but that did not prevent
it nominating a man with more than
a single idea, although on the one
proposition inconsistency is shown.
But it must be remembered that there
are numeions interests to be served,
and the most important should be first
considered. In this we believe the
convention displayed good judgment.
And when all is said, by comparing
the speeches snd vote of Mr. Ellis
with the speeches and writings of Mr.
Tongue it will be discovered financial
ideas of the two republican candidates
for congress from Oregon sre not ser
iously at variance, while they are
both "sound tariff" men.
Judge Nohthcp'8 candidacy for con
gress ba in it but one object the de
feat of Ellis. Judge Northup cannot!
hope to 'be dec ted liimielF, and mak
ing the race only shows himielf to ba
the subservient tool of a few men who
see in him (Northup) the kind of ma
terial necessary to accomplish their
ends. It the object of Korlbup'e can
didacy shall be attained, to-wit: (he
defeat of Ellis, then the second dis
trict will be represented in congress for
the next two years by either a demo
crat or a populist, and either would
be a free-trader. Success in this con
test lies between Ellis, Bennett and
Quiun all for silver, and the two lat
ter for free trade ae well which will
you chosef Every republican vote
cast for Jiorthup is a Imlf a vote in
fuvor of the populist or the democrat.
It i easy to conceive how a tree-trade
republican, if there be nch, can vote
for Northup, thereby anting in tnc
election of a free-trade congressman ;
but it is inconsistent for any protec
tionist in this district to vote for any
man for coocreas except w. . Jan
for the reasons above stated. The re
publican party, as a party, stands for
protection as its fundamental princi
ple. It has been the issue for years
and is now the issue. How, then, can
a man vote for free-trade, either direct
or indirect, and still claim to be a pro
tectionut?
REMEDY IN THE BALLOT.
It does not necessarily follow that
because a man, in the exercise of his
judgment as a free American citizen,
declines to support certain nominees
of a convention that he is guilty of or
has committed any crime or breach of
trust. The republican form of gov
ernment, of which wo boast so much,
gives every citizen the right to cast
his ballot for whoever he sees lit. That
is why we are proud to live iu a repub
lic, and aoy other couditiou would be
a monarchy. A free people are not to
be bridled by a few designing politi
cians and led up to tbe rack and
forced to take their medicine without
resistance. It never was intended to
be so by the frmr.ers of the constitution
of this country. The ballot is tbe
remedy for existing evils, and the peo
ple have a right to exercise it accord
ing to their own judgment. If the
people had not the right to dissent
from the acts of conventions their
rights would, year after year, be bar
tered away, and each year tbe per
formance would become more bold.
The candidates nominated by packed
conventions are not always ineompe
tent or unworthy men, but it is the ob
jectionable manner in which certain
nominations sre made, the means em
ployed to bring about cei tain results,
and lastly the total disregard of tue
wishes of those who have been mis
guided in electing a delegation to the
convention who misrepresent their in
terests. Such has been the case and
such it will continue until honest vot
ers rise up as by one common impulse
and repudiate such acts by the ballot.
Of course the man who refuses to wear
his political collar meekly is called a
bolter by a class of bulldozers, but is
not the term bolter an ornament to
any man who refuses to wear the col
lar of political chicanery?
Now that H. W.Scott has succeeded
in. bringing out Northup an an inde
pendent candidate for congress against
W. K. Eilis, the regular republican
nominee, the Chronicle will concen
trate all its efforts to defeat this man
Northup. A more unpopular, arbi
trary and conceited individual never
walked tbe streets o! this city. Ihere
are no common interests existing be
tween him and the people. He is in
the field as a candidate simply to grat
ify the overloaded ambition of Harvey
Scott, who is willing to sacrifice every
thing in order to disrupt the republi
can party in this state. A more vile
and degraded action never took place
than that of bringing out this man
Northup for a position that, under the
laws of Uod, man and the Uracd Ulu
Republican party be is honestly barred
from accepting. Not one honest re
publican vote in the whole state will
be cast for this usurping offspring of
Harvey Scott's, who is merely seeking
higher honors for himself at a sacrifice
of party honor and principle. I he
Chronicle will use every means at its
command to defeat this aspiring ap
plicant for unearned political honors.
Portland Chronicle.
Bt the favorite son dodge Pennsyl
vania helped to beat Seward in the
convention of 1860, Blaine in that of
1876, and Sherman in that of 1888.
Each of these men. was far in tbe lead
of all the other aspirants at the outset,
though not to tbe extent to which Mc
Kinley appears to be ahead of his riv
als of today. It is said that there is
more sincerity in Pennsylvania in the
movement to push Quay than there
was in those of Cameron in I860, Hart
ranft ij 1876, or Filler in 1888, and
possibly this is true. Yet tbe chances
are that it will not be successful.
Congressman Grotvenor, who is
handling the arithmetic end of the
McKinley boom, is probably an exag
gerator in large degree, but it seems
entirely safe to assume that at least
half of the delegates already chosen,
and these number much more than
two-thirds of the whole convention,
will vote for McKinley. Moreover, in
most of the states yet to select dele
gates the Ohio man appears to be the
favorite.
There is no good reason why any
republican should decline to vote for
W. R. Ellis. He is the peoples' friend
and is laboring for the interest of the
masses. His record in congress has
shown him to be on the side of the
people, laboring early and late for their
interest, and notwithstanding bis po
sition is in danger, and every effort
has been and is being made to defeat
him, he remains at his post of duty.
leaving the wishes of the people to
their own judgment. No doubt if Mr.
Ellis was a political trickster the op
position to him could easily be har
monized by promises of future favors,
but such promises are never made by
an honest man, and should not suc
ceed when they are made. A vote for
iulu is in the interest of the people.
