VOTE OF CONFIDENCE
The record of the republican
party, since its accession t
pnwer in I860, appealed so
forceably to the goodseuce and
patriotism of the voters of
Oregon on last Monday thut
every county in Oregon lines up
in a solid columns for the
doctrins, and policies the re
publican party. When the
condition of home life, the com
forts that in 1904 gather around
the firesides of the sixteen mill
ions of homes in the United
States are compared with the
comforts enjoyed around the
American firesides in 1860 aud
prior thereto during the reign
of democracy, it is not to be
wondered that the vote on last
Monday was au emphatic dec
laration of approval of republi
can principles.
