The. alitor of the rttur will confer n favor by mentioning the time in Oregon's history when the Kepublican party was not rent by factions ami when partv principles were paramount to spoils ami office. Fact is that a long period of mis. rule, graft and corruption is resiwtisiblc for the present state of affairs. The people saw no relief in aight, o lhe voted fur any meatir they thought would place direct power in the hand;' of the voters to convct nine of the evils their representatives refused or neglect ed to abolish. The election of Vnitwl States Senators from Oregon has at all times been a matter of trade am) barter, and lias leeu absolutely devoid of prin ciple. Has the Oregon Legislature, for the past twenty-live years, elected a senator becau.-e of his fnncs for the position and because of the principle of the party he represented ? For ti greater part of the time we have had an able man, but who will pretend that he rep resented any kind of a principle, or that his election was the result of his devotion to the tenets of the Republican party ? It it not a fact that the Senators from Oregon, tince the defeat of Ihilpli, have been opportunists who either con cealed their real sentiment or eagerly adopted what they llieTed to be the popular idea? Is it not also a fact that under the old system from the packed primary to the legislative caucus the methods employed were notoriously and openly corrupt? It was o plain that none were deceived. The tog was bought, either with cash r political preferment, and vet cur friends who oppose .Statement No. I talk blatantly about the good old days when princi ples were paramount to spoils and nff ices. In those good ol I days they were not even true to their corupt bargains, and they took lesions from the lesser thieves and practiced the "double cross" upon their wealthy victim. Do you re inemtier the holdup legislature, wiih all Its disgraceful and .ircicsl surroundings, when the pupil nut-peneraled the master in the good old methods 7 Do yoo remember the Sirnon Lotan primaries and the CorbetSimon sen atorial contett? I)o you remember when Senator McRride'a beneficiaries betrayed hitn in ti.e interest of Senator Mitcll-Il, to the crowning disgrace Of the State? How and why wera mem bers of the Legislature elected nnder that good old system? Was it on ac count of their fitrrietw. 'or because tlu-y stood pledged to (heir constiluents for the support of certain principles, or was it because they had given their pledge (and in some cases a written one) to stand for the selfish aspirations if a certain candidate? Really it is too early to talk about the good old ways of the Grand Old Tarty, J,et the people have time to forget and tin stench to float away.
