Sentiment in Portland Is tor him
and from every section of the state
comes the word that Belling has more
strength than anyone would have be
lieved.' It. looks very much like
Bourne's platform will be retained by
Oregon in her next senator, but that
, the people are going to chooBe a much
better and more able man to carry out
those principles than Mr. Bourne. ;
Democratas of Oregon begin to see
their mistake In not coming out firm
ly for W. J. Bryan for their leader
this year. His visit to the state has
caused a revival of the old time admir
ation and he has welded again those
chalnB of friendship which made him
so popular In years gone by. He is.
the logical leader of the democrats
this year and our prediction, wh'.ch Is
of several months' standing,' is
if the national convention at Baltimore
does not do its work quickly the
"Peerless One" will yet be the choice
of that gathering.

little good natured raillery that ousht

the most ardent reformer, while the
superior wisdom of the "profound J.

o a movement that is only accelerated
hv the discord complained of. As far
as the socialists are concerned, they
cannot be expected to fuse or affiliate
with any political action,, "regardless
of their party affiliations," because
such action would be contrary to the

meat ucceeds In proportion to the
kind of opposition that it is capable
of arousing? From the discussion of
a question, wherein the light is thrown
upon it from evefy ' possible angle,
there should arise the truth laid' bare
in all Its nakedness, But to assume
that one point of view discovers all
the truth Is a mistake and gets peo
ple in a rut from which they cannot
extricate themselves. Brother Norris
should welcome discussion and even
criticism rather than indulging in
vain regrets and assuming that he
