Portland. Oregon, Aug. 21: Where
did Dr. Smith, Democratic candidate
for Governor, get the nice little fixed
u,i Mpeech which he gives almost word
in every place where he talks? There
are some H.-oplc in Portland who are
uu.'haritable enough to the ".Weal
candidate to suggest that the eech
wa edited in the inner editorial office
of t te magnificent new building recent
ly put up by t'ol. Jackson for the
Oregon Journal; they further whisper
that the speech was afterward care
fully censored by Governor West him
self so that nothing dangerous to the
V t interest should apcar therein.
Then, the story goes, after the speech
had been pruned und patched up, it
was type-written on a nice clean nice
sheet of paper and given U lr. Smith
to learn. Those who have heard the
speech in different places declare that
he has learned "Ills little piece" just
a it waa given to hun and is reciting
it without a slip of the tongue.
It IS wondered li home here if the
present ncrvou aetiviH of the Oregon
JoafMl und lit- editorial ctfort to make
out that )r. Withyconiaeis a "corked"
candidate, fl nt an attempt to dlxtract
attention from iti Mm rcHirtcd activi
ties in "canning Dr. Smith's apsasfc.
Thc point out that it wmn only a short
nine ago that the Journal was throw
ing Umuets at lr. Withy combe for his
fearlessness in expressing his opinion.
These editorial appeared under the
headline, "li Withyeombe's candor"

was without aerlou check. Having
taken Brussels, the troop of Kmperor
William forced their way steadily and

western Belgium, and southeast of
Brussels they invested the fortified
city of Namur on the Meuae.
