A talk is being told by the free silver
press nod harped by advocates of the
white metal ou street corner to the
effect that brother of Presideut J as.
A. Garfield has oome out for Bryan.
The facta (n the matter are that ha
signed a statement that he was in
favor of both gold and silver as money,
meaning under present restrictive ar
rangements, and not knowing to what
nse it would be put. Concerning the
statement, Mr. Garfield, who ia 75
years old and lives on a farm in Ot
tawa oounty, Michigan, now say : "If
my martyred brother were alive hi
voice would be heard fiom ocean to
ocean iu favor of the republican party
and its principles, and I should prove
myself a traitor to his memory and to
l ho -people of my country who placed
liim in toe presidential chair, a pott
lion the highest in the gift of the peo-
pie, were 1 to oppose them, when
believe the principles he advocated are
as true today as they were when he
was here to proclaim them. From
this time uotil after election a banner
bearing the names of McKinley, llo-
bart, Filigree and Smith shall be seen
floating from my quiet little home in
the township of Jamestown." It seems
this is a campaign of misrepresents
tion instead of education on the part
of the Bryan management.
1,200,000 men engaged In this indus'
try realised the truth of McKinley'
prediction that free wool would "fall
with terriblo severity upon a million
people, their households and depend
encios."

IT won I take lone to put a veto on
Bryanism this time two second;

It would be iu keeping with dodo
listic assertions for that party to claim
.Pennsylvania as going for Bryan.
Thk great newspapers of the eoun
try can't all be mistaken, and they are
practically unanimous in the confident
opinion that McKmley will be elected.
Thk last accusation against Mark
Hanns is that he caused the big rise
in the price of wheat If this is the
case the farmers should say "well done,
Marc, come again."
Evert citizen of Columbia county
should rote in the county, whose repn
tation is at stake in this matter. The
credit of the county is at stake, and a
republican majority will preserve that
credit. : Bee to it therefore that each
one performs his full duty.
Portland dealers in Columbia
county warrants do not hesitate to say
that if Bryan ia elected they would
not purchase this county's paper at
any price. Tbey do not care to invest
their money under snch uncertainties
as populist success would bring about.
Some, fellow who claims to hare an
infallible system of his own, which has
never given a wrong estimate, figures
out Bryan's election by a large major
ity, giving him, among others, the
elates of New York, New Jersey and
Ohio. And even such a lunatic in
r. euesting as this can get his table of

and threatened disintegration, of the
Union on the other. It is for the
electors to choose between a certain
and an uncertain policy of govern
ment, whether present conditions shall
prevail or the homes of this countrv
be made happy by the workingman
having employment at remonerative
wages, whether our public institutions
shall stand or fall, or American citi
zenship lifted to that high standird to
which a civilized nation might aspire.
The day is at band and every man
who loves his country and its institu
tions should place the stamp of con
demnation upon anarchy, riot and
socialism by repudiating the Chicago
platform upon every word of which
Mr. Bryan stands.
The populists down in Georgia some
days ago began to realize their deplor
able situation and their total subserv
iency to the democratic party. A. meet
ing was held and an ultimatum issued
to the democrats in which the former
made a final plea for fusion ia behalf
of Watson. This effort met the same
fate at the hands of the democrats that
all previous eflorls had met and the
proposition was rejected. Hon. Wil
liam H. Felton, populist candidate for
presidential elector at large, in a ring
ing letter announces that he was a life
long democrat; "that Clevelandism
drove him into populism, a jd now that
he discovers that anti-Cleveland demo
crats are as venal as those whom they
have displaced, be ean ouly find hon
est politics within the ranks of the re
publican party." In declaring to
support McKinley, Mr. Felton con
cludes : "I therefore choose to protect
my business interests, which are com
mon to all farmers of the state, rather
than submit any longer to democratic
incapacity.
Onk of the great questions to be de
cided next Itiesday is whether th
workingmen of this country are to re

when he proposes another departure,

was wrong once. Is there any evidence
that he is right now?

it is certainly poor uow.
This has beeu a new way of getting
republicans into the democratic parly

in good faith has no doubt discovered

IT BEES THK LIQIIT,
Mr. Betas boldly declares that he
would vote for a silver republican
rather than for a gold democrat. Then
he cannot blame democrats who can
not agree witn mm on the money
question, ana wno, luce himself, recog
nize that as the paramount issue, for
voting for McKinley or Palmer. And
a host of democrat will prove them
selves as independent aa Mr. Bryan is.
Thk lumber industries of Columbia
county should have the market which
British Columbia has taken possesion
of by operation of the Wilson law.
Our neighbors to the north do not pay
one cent toward the running expenses
ot. this government, yet they receive
the direct ben6t of our borne market.
This ia a condition which cannot bring
prosperity to our people, and the
sooner a cuange lanes place in our
tariff laws the sooner will relief come
to the toiling masses.
Do you know what changed several
votes from Bryan to McKinley the day
Tillman spoke here? says the&IcMinn
ville Transcript. Just a few words did
the business. During the speech some
one shouted for McKinley. "That fel
low," said Tillman, "is a son of an old
soldier that this government sent down
south to lick us, and is now drawing a
pension that we are helping to pay,
whether through merit or fraud ; but
we get no pensions." And this ex
pression probably came from the bot
tom of the heart of this man who
would today be a slave-driver had it
not ben for "Old Abe Lincoln and his
hirelings." The sectional spirit has
died down ia the hearts and minds of
the rank and file of the people of this
country; in the bosom of the Tillman
stripe the spirit of hatred lurks as
deeply as it did in the dark days of the
rebellion, and it will crop out.
1st no western industry were the
beneficial effect of the McKinley act
more clearly exemplified than in stim
ulating the prune industry and the
fruit industry generally. Take plums
and prunes, for instance, and mark
the effect of this act in reducing the
importation of foreign plums and
prunes into this country. Take the
importations for the three years im
mediately preceding the passage of
the McKinley act. In 1887 we im
ported 92,032,625 pounds of plums
anrt prunes of the value of 82,999.648 :
in 1888, 70,626.017 pounds of the value
of 12,197,150, and in 1889, 46,154,825
pounds of the value of $1,423,304, or
an aggregate in these three years of
208,813,477 pounds of the sggregate
value of 16,620,102, or an average an
nual importation for these three years
of 69,604,492 pounds of the average
annual value of V 1,206,201.
Evert business interest of thecoun
try would be eohanced by the election
of McKinley .hence those) either directly
or inoirecny aepenaent upon those
business interests would be benefitted
in like proportion. Labor cannot be
employed unless capital yields a profit.
The one is dependent upon the other,
out tor either to succeed capital must
first be employed. If the mill or the
factory or the farm dries not make s
protit on the money invested they can
not employ labor. If indeed the rail
road or steamboat have not the oppor
tunity to make a profit upon the in
vestment they have no nse for labor
It is not a question so much with
them whether tbey have more money,
it is business they want to operate the
money already invested, and without
traffic their money lie idle and labor
is unemployed. 1
Wheh McKinlev fr.iri.ed the rennh-
lican tariff bill in 1890 he increased
the duty on wool, and for three vear
the wool growers had better protection
than ever before and wool growing' be
came prosperous industry in this
country, with increasing flocks in
Ohio and in the West. Mr. Bryan
may sneer at this industry as belong
ing to the "mutton sge," but there
were 700,000 wool growers in the
United States in 1892. and thev em
ployed 500.000 laborers to take care of
their 47,273,554 sheen, which war a
Ocr populist friends have been tell-
ng us all along that the demonetiza
tion of silver caused the low price of
wheat, or that the price of wheat was
regulated by the price of silver. Can
this be true, when within the past
six months the price of wheat has
doubled while the price of silver ha
been gradually decreasing, and is to
day lower than at any time in the
history of the country? How. then
does the price of silver regulate the
price of wheat, or of any other com
modity? All such arguments explode
themselves in due course of time.
EDITORIAL NOTES.
The result in Georgia will be watched
with the keenest interest. McKinley i
chances for carrying that state are ex
ceptionally flattering.
Can a country prosper when a large
percentage of its people advocate
policy which will destroy the purchasing-
power of it medium of exchange?
Washington, in reality, is more apt
to cast its vote for McKinley than it
is for Bryan. Conditions in that state
have changed wonderfully in the last
mouth.
Three months ago the best brands
of flour were selling at 70 and 75 cents
per sack. Today it is quoted at f 1.00.
Will our populist friends attribute
this nse in flour to the demonetization
of silver?
wno win invest his money in se
curities when the debtor threatens to
repudiate the obligation at the earliest
opportunity? And if he invests it
what assurance has he that it will
ever be paid back?
If the "great crime of 1873" caused
the financial depression; why did
times continue g'd until after the
election of Grover Cleveland in 1892,
and then drop all at once, after nine
teen years of prosperity?
The supreme court is the balance
wheel of this government, and be who
would decry the integrity of the high
est judicial authority in the world
takes upon himself an odium which is
no ornament to American citizenship.
"Where are those great principles
of populism V asks the true middle of
the road populist. Why, dear brother,
they have merged into the fog of
fusion. When the fog lifts a chemical
analysis would find them in the dem
ocratic turene.
The populist party has only the
name left. The democrats have de
stroyed the principles. Fiat money,
government ownership of railroads,
postal sayings brinks, 2 per cent loans,
etc., do not find place in the demo
cratic platform. Free trade and free
silver followed by free soup is their
motto.
The Oregon Frator Iteallaea Menace
of the Chicago Platform.
A fraternal pspsr, the Oregon Frater,
published at Portland, Oregon, ha been a
free eoiiiage paper hitherto, and ia yet, on
that issue, but in its last number, dated
October 24th, It changes front from Ilryau
to McKinley. We reproduce a portion ol
its leading article:
"Wo have tried to bellove that the 'free
and nnliiuiitd coinage of silver' was not
nly the paramount Issue, but the only I'
tut to be considered In the campaign now
about to clos. Thus who hava read the
Frater know with what earnestness w have
urged the issue in favor of hitnetalism, and
must believe in our sincerity. Ws have
been nnwiliing to consider any othfr Issue
behoving that to bs the one overshadow
ing and Important thing to be considered ;
but the awakening has corns, and, not in
ntr, but In sorrow, w are forrad to ad
mil that there Is an issue of vastly mors
Importance than that Involved In the flnan
cial planks of the party platforms, and, thai
issue plainly stated, is, 'hall the govern
ment be perpetuated, or shall anarchism
reign supreme in this land of ours?' "
All other Issues can wait. The suprem
acy of the government must first be aisurvd
before other matters are considered. What
benefit will th country derive from voting
In favor of the free n l unlimited coinage
of silver If, at the same time, th govern
ment shall be turned over to an li responsi
ble mob, and anarchy shall reign In lien of
government? What would the stamp of
the goverment be worth upon a coin if it
had no authority to protect itself against
riot, anarchy, treason, rebellion and diain
tegration?
"The Frater has kept steadily on in Its
advocacy of silver and those who represent
that issue, but, we have corns to th part
ial; of the ways, and where one rond plain
ly leads in the direction of anarchism and
the other toward law and order, the main
tenance ot our government with all It
functions unimpaired, and. we repeat, all
other issues can wait nutil th integrity of
the government, th perpetuity of our in

this paper, a paper which represents th
fraternal orders of the land, with their
principles of obedience to all lawful author
ity, devotion to right and justice, love of
country and mutual aid, we repeat, Ibe po
sition of this paper must not be misunder
stood upon that issue. And, when it is
mad clear, as is now the case, that those
political leaders, wso most nearly represent
anarchy are the closest adviser of the can
didate, and the cblel manipulators of the
political machinery used In behalf of Mr.
llryan, and that thos leaders do nothing
to discourage the th anarchistic tenden
cies of their followers, and dare not offend
them, the Oregon Frater can no longer
ask its readers to support such a combina
tion, but It will ask all members of frater
nal orders to make common cause against
outlawry, anarchy and the threats to the
perpetuity of our national institutions."
A Forecast of the Result.
If the president has not authority
to suppress riot and insurrection why
bold ao election next Tuesday at a
cost of millions of dollars? Let us go
back to the early days of Rome when
revolutions took place whenever any
considerable number of people be
coming dissatisfied sought to over
throw the government, resulting in
the survival of the strongest.
Mr. Bryan in 1893 while supporting
the Wilsou bill in the house declared
that the McKinley tariff was the cause
of the great depression. Subsequent
events show th&t he was wrong. Now
he declares that it is the financial
j question that ails us, and time will no
aouot prove wist, ne is wrong strain
valued at f 125,000,000. All these Indeed if be was wtong in 1893 is
The following is taken from the New York
World, the leading democratic paper of the
nation, of its issue dated October 21st:
First Mckinley's election is certain. As
th World showed over two months ago in
its '-nutshell" Illustration and map, he Is
reasonably sure of 17 Eastern and Middle
slates New England, New York, New Jer
sey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland,
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wiscon
sin and Iowa. They east 229 electoral votes
five more than a majority.
Becond Mr. Bryan is reasonably sure of
17 states. II will get every state that fully
or partially entered the confederacy South
Carolina, Virginia, North Caroliula, Geor
gia, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Missis
sippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri and
Texas. He will get every silver-mining-
camp state Nevada, Colorado, Utah, Ida
ho and Montana. These 17 states cast 145
electoral vote.
Third Of the remainina 11 states, four-
Kentucky, Minnesota, West Virginia and
North Dakota are also certain for McKin
ley. They cast 31 electoral votes. They
were not Included in the 17 McKinley states,
because their votes sre not needed, sod the
simplicity of the comparison is greater
without them. They will increase McKln
ley's vote from 22! to 280. This leaves seven
states to be accounted for California, Ore
gon, Washington, Wyoming, floutu Ilako
ta, Kansas and Nebraska. The probabil
ities are that Bryan will get the vote of four
of these states, and McKinley will get the
ol her three Kansas, Washington and Ore
gon, which add J8 votes to the McKinley
strength, making a total of 272, giving Mc
Kinley 48 votes to spare.
Populist Representative From Coos
and Curry Counties.
Coo.uii.ls Citt, Or,, Oct. id From the
commencement of the people's party up to
the great sell-out at St. Louts I had been
consistent inombcr "ml au earnest worker
In the causa uf reform as mapped out b
th Omaha pluifurin, and ahhuii;h 1 had
been elected joint representative to our
state legislature fur Cuo and Curry conn
ties, when oifr leaders, trcauherotis leader
sold us out to the defunct democratic party
and undertook to. deliver th goods, I for
one refused to bo delivered. This greatly
incensed tha dsnioorntio portion of my
party hereabouts, and they have heaped all
kinds of odium upon me, and made man
threats, asking m to resign, etc, But
bays gon steadily onward about by busi
ness, claiming to bs mor consistent than
any fualonlst of whatever nam or party
regardless of all th Calumny that bin been
hcajied upon me, .
I now propose to give my reaona for not
supporting Mr. Bryan, even if I did klhv
in fudou, which I don't and never did, am!
want to see the parly or parties severely re
buked that undertake It.
I refuse to support William J. Bryan
first, because ha is a free trade democrat
snd boldly says, "I am for free wool," and
a duly on eoal Is Indefensible," and "ll (a
protective tarltf, a well as reciprocity) can'
b defended," etc. Now, in my mind
while tho tariff question may notbeas
great as th flnunoittt question, it I of much
more importance than th silver question
and while I hav been an advoeats of free
silver, I am not so certain but free silver,
in connection with ths rest ot th linaciclul
doctrine enunciated by the Chicago plat
form, would be a curs rather than a bless
ing, for it proposes to redeem all govern
ment paper in coin, which, according to
eminent authority, nisans ths destruction
of greenbacks, thereby making less money
Instead of more ani no one trm of Mr,
Bryan would be suthVicnt to allow hint to
coin enough silver to replace the paper he
would destroy.
A protective tariff Is the bulwark ot
Americas liberty. The party that Is now
crying tor mors money hi the party that
proposes to open our ports to cheap foreign
good, and thereby send our money awa
to foreign countries and deprive our own
workmen ot the labor it took to produce
those goods. Why not protect our own
laborers, sad keep our money at home?
Bpt this is Bryaoism, pur snd simple.
Again , t cannot support Mr. Ilrvco be
cause he ts an enemy of the old soldier, ot
which I was one fur over ton r years. The
Omaha World-Uerald (Mr. Bryan's paper),
November Id, li02, said in referring to th
appropriation for pensiuns in that year
This tremendous sum would in itself be
enough to run a reasonable government
One would uot complaiu if it was an lionen
debt, because it was not earn d by any ci
of patriotism or heroic service, Th gov
eminent is held up and despoiled of n-
mean portion of this, and it seems twwrr-
less to defend itself, ' etc. Thus Mr. Bryan
places hi.nself squarely as sn enemy of the
Union soldier, and how any old soldier can
support bun is beyond my comprehension
Comrade, you who are becoming aged, and
all of us arc, and who are depending olir.ost
wholly on your little pension, well earned
years gone by, and, Mr. lirvan to the
contrary notwithstanding, I say heroically
earned, should this party take the reins ol
this government, have you any assurance
of retaining your pension any more than
you had under the Cleveland administra
tion, if indeed as much? Far Mr. Cleve
lana never said your pension was not
earned by "patriotic" or "heroic" service.
I am glad In my he.irt that Oregon, as well
as every state in the Union, has such who!
souled men as my friead l.uco, and a host
of others who refuse to be led by such
treacherous leaders as Allen and Butler and
Weaver and FifTer and men of their Ilk.
Ia conclusion I want to sav that If th
democratic populUt are going back to the
old democratic party, I see no good reason
why the republican populists, with equal
propriety, should not go back to the repub
lican party.
The Chicago platform advocates none of
the great principles of populism, except
free silver, and they do that in such a wav
that X dont ee how It can be accepdible to
any true populist. The pnpuli.t party ba
been called anarchists, but they have never
had the temerity to declare s gainst the su
prerae court, nor yet against the president
calling out the troops to quell a riot when
necessary In any of their platforms. There
youarel Then why should the true popu
ist disgrace himself by going In with a
party that does declare against the very
bulwarks of this republic. Yours for true
patriotism. W. If. NOSLER.
