Gen. Otis will !x) warmly wel comed on his return to this country by all who appreciate patrotism, ability, fidelity and manly modorty. The people of Kentucky still think that the selection of a Gov ernor is their business and not one of the functions of the legislature. In 18 the Populists were solid for Bryan. Now they are divided, and the larger half is assembling at Cincinnati to get out of -ths Democratic traces for good. Republicans are a unit as to their national candidate, and their state platforms are substantially all alike. It is plainly a year of com plete Republican harmony. Republican platforms are event ually embodied in the laws of the country and are therefore to be pro nounced mighty interesting read ing. Opinion on the Nicaragua Canal is almost unanimous among the people, and the bill passed by the house to begin the work is received witlj general applause. In June the population prophet will step down and out, followed in November by the man who gets up the electoral pyramids showing how a sure loser can win. Bryan informs his audiences now that he will win in November When nominated four years ago he told the convention that he would carry every state in the Union. A large majority of the regulars in the Philippines re-enlist as their terms expire. They are evidently satisfied to grow up with that new section of the boundless West. Sewall says be is out of politics and Tom Watson remarks of him self that he is politically dead, Only the senior memberof the firm is revisiting the gilmpses of the silver moonshine. It is a Republican idea to throw open 33,000,000 acres more for free homesteads, and the proceeding is exactly in line with Republican policy from the earliest history of the party. The per capita crept up another peg in April and now stands at $26.58. In the pockets of Ameri can people is currency amounting to $2,000,000,000 and every dollar as good as gold. It is proposed by the Goebelites to amend the Kentucky election so that a man who votes the Re publican ticket can have his sen tence commuted to imprisonment for life. Mr. Bryan says that if he can carry the countsy in November the silver men may soon thereafter capture the senate, which is true. But ihe "if" in the case is a tre mendous obstacle. - A Republican Congress has again shown where to look for the party of free homes. The homestead law was the work of the Republican party and one of the great deeds of its early days. Col. Bryan will rest from May 15 until after the Democratic con vention. During his vacation he ought to revise his picture of the distressed farmer of the West, who liveB in a hovel, without books or papers, or any of the comforts and bardly the ban necessities of life, TUG KUTIlLtm TICKET. Our Duty Is to Tote for ThU Ttrirt Jnn 4th 1900. The time is fust drawing near when the voters of Polk county will be called upon to decide by their ballots who shall have charge of our public affair for the ensuing two years. Before casting this bal lot, 'lot us stop and reflect for a moment, that we do not err or fall to do our duty as Republicans anxious to uphold the principles o our party and to support the ad ministration in these trying times, We must bear in mind that our state is the first on the l;t to show its colors. We are upon the eve ol national election. That as coun ties, go, so goes our state; that as states go, so goes our nation. Ie us then throw all personal matters and strifes anide and stand by our ticket. ' Our nominee for District At torney, Julius N. Hart Was born In Illinois thiry-one year ago. He came to Oregon at the ago of 10, Brst settling in Marion, and then in Polk county, where he has resided continuously since. He is a self-made man, having paid his own way through sehoo ilrst finishing a literary course, atu then a law course.

Al of which, with his past experiences as a legislator places him in jKKsition to obtain greater results for our county and place it in the front rank, than any other candi date. We should see that he is returned by a handsome majority and thus lay the corner-stone of success for our county and state. Our nominee for Joint Repre sentative, Hon. W. L.

He is an old resident of Polk County and will be the right man. in the right place. Our nominee for Sheriff, Robert 8. Conner Is a native son of Polk County. Having satisfactorily served the people of this county in an official capacity in the past, you will make no mistake by electing him to of fice again, because he has fully demonstrated that he has the ability to execute the duties ol any office in a proper manner, and as our next Sheriff he will do . credit to the office aa well as to himself, Our candidate for County Clerk. U. It Laughary, Is also a native port of Polk County, having been raised on a farm and educated in Polk County schools, llolia graduate of tho Portland Business College, wlikh together with his experience in a commercial way during the part several years fiti him out (or the office of County Clerk to perfection.

Wain- wright, a modest subordinate, who took an old yaoht and fought all around the enemy. So far from being a dull, spirit ess meeting, it now seems that the hiladelphia convention will be one of the most enthusiastic and spirited in the history of the Re publican party. In point of ora tors alone it will be worth going. miles to participate in. CAMPAIGN Kl'F.AKMU.

' He paid a tribute to the Republican Mny for freeing the slave ami men tioned Abraham Lincolu In connection therewith, btit claimed that the Repub lican parly ol today and the Republican party of that time were totally different. "There I a trii In American history now," lie said, "and William J. Bryan la the Mute to Ivad the people out of the wildeme ol monarchy or Republi. cattlsm."

He promised, if elected, to perform the duties of hi olllce to the best of hi ability and to administer the law with out fear or favor a far ai'watinhii power. And now Salem proposes to tax steamboats $50 each for landing in the city limits. It seems that Salem's council is devising all sorts of schemes to drive business enter prise away. Why, somo people we know of are willing to pay subsidies to have steamboats come to them. A United States army officer has invented a, shell which peno- trates the famous Krupp armor as if it wero paper. This will necessi tate another revision of the arma ments of tho world, as some new armor must bo found whiclji will resist the new shell.
