It is a deplorable fact Ihat the mania for office seeking is another of those dangerous diseases which have taken tiold of the nation. Every observing uan must have noticed this disoosition among the people, and it is indeed a deplorable one. Oflice-seeking lias Ocome a mania among young men, and it is not too much to say that it unfits them for the active business of life. The l abit makes a man a servile beggar, insteud of a manly man. No wonder that writers in leading newspapers con demn the habit of "young men of good abilities electing to Income seedy, leg g:irly sycophants choosing a life of perpetual disappointment, and frequent ly of dishonor, to an indejiendent, i.ianly effort to fight the battles of life on liis own merits." A young man, for example, has a good Fituatlon as a book keeper in some mer cantile firm worth to him f 1500 a year. On that he can live comfortably and put away a little money font rainy day. All election is to take place. Ho no sooner hears of it than ho announces himself a candidate for acertain place. The salary attached to it may not bo more than $1000 a year. It may cost him f00 for election expenses, and then he is uncer fain as to the result. The olfice will only hold for two years, when he will . again have to appear before his con stituents and beg them for their votes. Me will require to put on a little more ntyle than usual, and it will be difficult to imike both ends meet. Still he will ubandon his lucrative situation to enter the uncertainty of official life at a lower wilary. Why does he do this? Either lie oxpects to make some money in a questionable manner when he gets in office, or he values a little honor more than cdWort and respectability. When a young man, or a man of any ago for that matter, succeeds in getting a position in a bank or a dry goods store tit a salary of say $ 1500 a year, little is said about it. And yet he may deserve groat credit for roaching so responsible a position. To earn a position like this in the fierce competition of the world of trade is certainly very creditable. Such n victory is deserving oi notice, it Is evidence of ability, honesty, sobriety and trustworthiness. But beyond the emark that lie was a lucky fellow, not another word is said. On the other hand, when a man re ceives an apiKiintment from a governor of a state or the president of the United States because ho was a noisy politician, era useful henchman at election times, ibe people gather round him, shake him ny the hand, put him on the buck, put his oortrait in the papers, drink whisky a ml smoke cigars at his expense. The office to which ho litis been appointed may not be worth a thousand dollars a year, but that matters not, ho will be feted and feasted by fellow who have rigger salaries than he will get by his "dice. The mania for office has been raging more and more fiercely for the last 2") years, and now it attacks all classes and conditions of society. The motives which prompt the general scramble for place :ire usually a desire for the pickings' which are supposed to be incident to it, .is well as a disimaitiou to nhirk honest labor. llRYAN'S"COVNTKY-HIED" WIFE.

The attempted slur in the alwve par agraph ij on a par with all the sneering utterance of the gold-bug press in thii campaign. It demonstrates, says the Roeuberg Review, that there has grown up in this country a purseproud class of the Ilanna-Oarncgie-Vanderbilt stripe, who aro worshiped by the cringing toadiesof the Harvey Scottcaliber. They look with contempt upon the masses and their country-bred wives. Tlio contempt is returned. In Win. J. Bryan, the masses have a leader in whom they trust as they trusted Jackson and Lincoln ; and there is not money enough in the coffers of the predatory rich to secure his defeat, and inaugurate Mark Hanna as acting president of the United Stutes. The millionaires think it is a crime to lie "country-bred." Take away from American history its country-bred heroes, and it would bo stale and un profitable reading. CAM PAWN OF INTIMIDATION. The Oregonian is authority for the statement that one of the owners of the largest steel works in the country has notified his 0000 employees that if Bryan is elected the works will close down in definitely. This is followed by the San Francisco Examiner's declaration that all employees of the Southern Pacific will be notified by Huntington's agents that they must vote for McKinley or lose their places. The campaign of boodle and bulldozing will not win. American citizens are not to be herded to the polls like cattle. Hear what the manly Bryan, the champion of the people, had to say at Alliance, Ohio, on this subject : "I met last night a gentleman who told me that his employer was against me, but he was for me. I have heard that remark before, The employer ami the employe have a right to differ in politics, but remember, my friends, that we live in a nation where the salary that a man receives does not purchase citi zenship. No wages are high enough for that. The dollars which are paid for the labor of the hand or mind are paid for the lulxir, not for votes. (Loud cheers.) 1 want to suggest that the employer who attumots to use etuolovment to rob the employe of his citizenship does not deserve to'live in a country like this. (Loud cheering.) The franchise is given to each individual for his own use, and it must not lie taken from him by pur chase or by intimidation. It is his. It is his birthright, and the man veililing it up against his conscience anil ids judg ment sells his birthright and does not receive in return even a mess of wttage. (Loud cheers.) I ask you to do your duty as you see it, and trust your fellow man to stand by you in the eqercise of your rights." (Loud cheers.) The highest salaried employe in the United States is supposed to lie the president of the Equitable Life Assur ance society, Henry B. Hyde. He re ceivesannuallylrlOO.OOO. John A.McOnll gets $75,000 to he president of the New York Life. Samuel Spender receives $50,000 a year for telling Pierpont Mor gan what he knows about railroads. Mr. Cleveland receives $50,000 a year and a house and lot for being president. Mr, Depew's salary as president of the New York Central railroad is lielieved to lie $50,000. Cornelius Vanderbilt's cook receives $10,000 a year. The sheriff of New York used to make $100,000 and over every year, but his wings have been clipped. Masiui receives $50,000 a season for singing his mighty tenor in Mudrid. Jean de Reszke receives $5,000 for singing one song the "Salut de- meure." from Faust. Path's contract called for $5,000 a night when she was at the height of her fame, but she had to give $500 of it to her agent. Taral, the jockey, has made $30,000 in a season. President Felix Faure, of the French Republic, receives $250,000 a year. Admiral Greer's pay is $0,000. An Eng lish general's pay is $27.50 a day, and the pay of an English admiral is $10,000 a year. Ambassador .Bayard receives $17,000 a year. Sir Julian Paunceforte, British ambassador to this country, re ceives $30,000 per annum. Britain's ambassador to France, the best paid diplomatic personage in the world, re ceives $50,000 a year. That tlio machinery of tho govern ment in being usud by the administration to down tho party which placed it in power ia evident from tho fact that the treasury department is being used, just ag aro tho heads of tho great financial agencies tho Hradstreet and Putin com panies to divert the people, from the great issue of the present campaign. This bIiows, in unmistakable manner, tho overwhelming and fur-reaching power of money. It corrupts the stream at tho very fountainhead, and till the tributaries como surcharged with the venom of arrogance and bigoted presump tion. When it is borne in mind how easily an expert iHxikkeetx'r may "cook" the accounts of a coriHration so as to hood wink the stockholders, it must be ad mitted that the big figures involved in governmental transactions are suscepti ble of like transition under the trained bands of skilled accountants swayed by the arbitrary will of Carlisle, and other bureau ollicers, who, the dispatch says, have nearly nil contributed their share in compiling. Olympia Standard. The Examiner publishes a list of the fat pookot-liooks that will have to con tribute fat to the republican corruption fund, Iteginningwith ltockfcllor with his 123,000 ,01)0 and ending with Wash. K. Conner with his little 12,000,000. The numlicr ia 4tS and their aggregate wealth .Vx!,000,000. Twenty-four simple mil lionaire are also named and sixteen worth from a quarter to half a million each, who are thrown into the kettle not so much for the "grease" they con- tain as to show impartiality and recognize the identity of men who may not be worth even a solid million. The cor ruption fund so fur amounts to $10,000,. OdO and it is proposed to double it. If theso schemers should be successful in their plan to overcome numbers by deliberate purchase of the birthright ot citizenship, they themselves would be the greatest sufferers, for they would let loose the spirit of a demon that rages in every human breast after the limit of endurance is reached. Tiik free silver craze is rooted in every nook and corner of the country. It is stronger in New York City than any place in the Union. It is strong in the New England states, supposed to be solidly for gold. Let us face the facts The republican party never in its history had a harder struggle before it than it lias to-day to elect McKinley on a gold plank. New York D'ttpakh. Tiik Portland Welcome is the only democratic paper in the state that has refused to stand by tho Chicago conven tion. In Ohio McKinley' home, not t single democartic paper has bolted. The opposition would have you think that half the party had bolted, when, in fact, hardly ono per cent bus done so. Tub Aew ioric Jlerula is opposing Bryan and Sewall. This is explained by the fact that its millionaire editor, James Gordon Bennett, has resided in Paris for many years, and is out of touch with the masses of the people in this country. Roieburg liemeiv. Many democrats now disposed to sulk or to bolt will decide before election day that Bryan and Sewall are preferable to McKinleyism. Coot Bin New. That Mythical Pour-Bit Dollar. Pops any ono believe that if the gold bugs thought they could pay their labor in "50-cent dollars" after the election they wouldn't be fulling ovorono another to getthe-chunce? The "50-cent dollar" is a financial and political scarecrow. Stockton Mail. The Hanna lotto. "Put none but fat purses on guard," seems to le Hunna's motto in making up bis list of fat fryers. HohIoh (Holie, The Weather Is Warm, Too. It is a cold day when thegold-stitndard trusts and combines do not invent some falsehood todeceive the people. Orovitle M rcury. The man with the tattoo marks on his skin would be foolish to attempt to wear them off by hard work. The person with a severe cough or cold is about as unwise to attempt to wear that off.
