Fusion by populists aud democrats it becoming more apparent s tbe day of election approaches. What are the platforms of these two parties but mere formalities, glltterlus; generalities, to which they bave but little confidence, and which are strikingly deceptive lu their purpose. The (union of populists and democrats prove that Uieir ouly object la to defeat republican legisla tion and to defeat the election of a re- publican senator. Populists and demo crat of the better ckus are cognizant of these facts, and are not disposed to din- card principle and by fusion surrender their Independence at the beck of would-be leaders of either party. Dem ocrats who have held to the life long principles of the party and have abided by and advocated thoBe principles lu the truest sense of the word, cannot, by political shysters, be luduced to work and vote for souse other policy, that, by so doing would be doing violeuee to lifelong political convictions. Muuy who have hitherto voted a fusion ticket have seen their mistake, ami cannot be caught In tbe same trap again. Demo cratic "prosperity" Is not making dem ocratic votes, and by fuslor. with the populists the democrats will be shorn of ail future hopes of a successful aud honored organization. Everything points favorably for a sweeping victory for tbe republicans In June, and with that victory tbe hopes of the people will be revived. people, aud bring upon them a discom fiture from which they could scarcely ever recover. An unworthy ambition, Individual aspirations for official pre ferment, and motives which can be easily conceived of, place them lu a position from which the people re coll, and will on the 4th of June ex press them wives In terms of condem nation which will relegate them to an obscurity front which they will never emerge, , Ho man can doubt but that the passage of the Wilson bill will deepen and luteu sify the depression of business now pre. vailing. The pending bill Is purely a sectional measure, framed by three or four senators, aU of whom represent state that have little or no Interests In manuraeturers, They have to some extent prelected their local Industries but are Indifferent to all omplo) menu but those of their respective states. In fear of the effects of this measure, thousands of worklngiuen are out of employment and Amertcau produc tions are greatly reduced. The meas ure as It now stands Is revolutionary. TUfi WILSON BILL. The Wilson Urltrblll Uonly In favor of Importers, Many so-called demo crats In congress voted for it because they do not know what Is right or for the beuettt of the people t large in this country. The people t the elections bave lately, lu different parts o'f the country, prove! however, what they thtukof the Wilson bill. It Is not so much the democratic or republican party, as the tariff question; but nlue- teuths of our present congressmen and senators who voted for the Wilson tar iff bill may consider this their last term of oflke. We should favor pro tection for the reason that the products of American labor are as good as the world produces, aud good enough for any patriotic American. Protection means prosperity and happiness. Free tiade means disap pointment and disaster. '. PROTECTION Cleveland, in his speeches for years past, and by bis so-called rtafe papers and policies since the mistake of the American made it possible for him to inflict his ideas on the country, has been steadily and persistently sowing tbe seeds of discord and discontent among tbe masses, aiid now, having aroused the class most impressible to bis inflated, pompous and high-sound lng style of phraseology and expres sion, he has become alarmed for his own personal safety, and proposes to put down tbe uprising he has thus incited by the strong power of the United States army. What do the poor, oppressed and downtrodden peo ple now think of their champion? Ex. The populists would tax the rich by means of tariff legislation. The demo crats seem inclined to tax the necessa ries for consumption, as these would furnish the largest revenue. The re' publicans would tax all imports which can not to be produced by the Industry of the American people. Let ail progressive and fair minded Judge which would be the most popular and conducive to the general welfare, and it. j . . men vote in accordance wiinyour Judgement; and, the republican policy of taxation must surely prevail, Protection should be studied as to its meauing and application. It Is a word that should be held dear to the hearts of every American man, woman or child. It means cfofeuse, shelter from evil, a passport exemption from being molested. It Is very hard to explain to a mau who is not informed what Is a cartel of commerce; that It Is a writing containing stipulations that gives aid and lomfort to him. in hlseveryday transactions. It covers his bead, shoes his feet, clothes his back aud feeds his stomach. Protection Is the safeguard to American liberty. The man wbowill vote against protection who Is a laborer and agriculturist, Is certainly a deluded man, for In so voting he voles against bis own Interests and against that Mil- icy that guarantees prosperity to the individual and secures tbe welfare of all classes of people. aud there will follow at ouce a restora tion of oonflduuee which will start up the mills aud factories, give employ ment to labor, halt the industrial armies, put an end to labor conflicts, aud bring In an era of general prosper ity. . -(- .' Hut one democratic paper thus far has aunouueed that it wanted a cam paign of education, and yet, notwith standing this announcement a cam paign of education has been going on for the past year, by which the people have learned that demooiatlo promise and democratic leglslati m have not advanced the welfare of the people. They have learned that the threatened destruction of the protective tariff sys tem, has creaUd dismay among our manufacturers and business men, that it has thrown untold numbers of labor ers out of employment, that it has led to the Coxey's armies moving on to Washington, oreatlug distress among his own men aud oreatlug alarm aloug the route of their travel. Who is re sponsible fur the prevailing distress? surely not the republican party, for under the rule of that party peace and plenty prevailed in the land aud no populist armies under the lead of Coxey sounded the tocsiu of alarm, not only on their travels, but even lu the halls of congress, where they were apparently determined to have their laws enacted, or bring on a civil war. Ob, democracy I democracy, hide your hydra head aud let peace again dwell lu the land. The democratic party,whloh in 112, on account of the tariff, threatened the dissolution of the Union; the demo cratic party which lu 18 3 demanded aud secured the repeal of the tariff act of 1828 and brought rulu upon the country; the democratic party which In ISM demanded and secured the re peal of the Whig tarilfof 1N4J, which In 1801 on account of the tariff que tlou and In order to promote aud ex tend that sum of all villainies, human slavery; the democratic party which, since 1832 has been a free trade party, bits again secured control of the gov eminent, aud Is determined that uotb tug shall staud lu tbe way of the de struction of .Northern Industries and the degredatiou of Amor lean labor by free-trade legislation, and that nothlug shall prevent the promotion of the suj postd Interests of tbe Kouth at the ex pense of the North. o a o o to 3T O Q s - I men's SHOCsTFil "HARD TIMES" PRICES S-OUH--PRING STOCK HAH AKK1VEU.

Free wool from all parts of the world, coming in competl tion with the American wool, affords no prospect for an Increase of the price of wool, nor an increase in wages to the aheepsheanr. Governor Pennoyer and Judge Boise are perambulating the state urging the populists to stand by their ticket. Pennoyer, an old time democrat; Boise, a democrat the first few years of his residence In Oregon, then a republican, now a populist, are wasting their time and exhausting their wind In their at tempts to lead men of true and tried principles to abandon their party or ganizations and flock to the standard of political weathercocks, who, to sub serve their own purposes would sacri fice the interests of the masses of the C, E. W'olverton as supreme Judge would be-the right man in the place. Mr. Wolverton Is almost a lifelong Or- egonlan, is Identified with all her In terests, Is a Just and upright man, pos sesses high qualifications for the posi tion, and withal, Is the very man that Oregon wants at this time to fill that position of trust and responsibility. A vote for C. E. W'olverton Is a vote for an- honest Judiciary, a competent and impartial ofllclai. "Are you for England or America? I have noticed that whenever England desired to acquire additional territory from Africa, "that she would send her soldier there and demaud It; but when ever England Is desirous of acquiring the markets of Amcr.on, she makesaii alliance with the democratle party. A cloud has settled over this country and all of lis Industries within a year more awful in Its blackness than any that has o'ercast the sky since the terrible days of IStiO and 1801. The simple threat of free trade, and power to carry that threat into execution has caused a loss ol propeety and a sbriukage of val ues that can hardly be comprehended by the human mind." Hon. A.

Vote tbe republican ticket, and by so doing you voto for a principle true to American Interests. - A PATRIOTIC VIEW. The man who is able to see nothing but gloom and disaster ahead does not understand the character of the Amer ican people. We have passed through periods of depression quite as severe as that from which the country has been suffering for the past twelve months. As was said by General Harrison, the gathering and marching to Washing ton from all quarters of the country of so-called armies of unemployed work- iugmen, is a spectacle that our country has never witnessed before, and it is one that demands serious considera tion. How shall we escupe from ex isting conditions? Slop the warfare against the protective policy, and aban don s all financial schemes which threaten the stability of the currency, Tills Is no year lor seratculng. Every republican - should vote the straight ticket. I f even the J ustice of the jHitce or constable Is elected It qualifies the opinion of tbe people to a certain ex tent as to the great lssucof this year. We want the sentiment to be unani mous and so plainly sKkcn that it can not be misread. If It cannot he said, as Polk county goes so goes tlio nation, let it at leass tie said, as the nation goes so goes Polk county. Vote the straight ticket and old Polk will be all right for the uext two years at least. ' SL ... . .. .
