OREGON CITY, JAN. 28, 1893.
THE PROPOSED UNION.
The question of consolidating the silver-reform
forces of the country is pur
posely misconstrued and misunderstood
by the opposition press. It is not a ques
tion of fusion in the generally accepted
definition of the word. It is simply, as
the Roseburg Review, the leading paper
in Southern Oregon, says, a question of
whether the voters who supported Mr.
Bryan for president fifteen months ago,
desire to continue to work together for
the common good of all, and for a com
mon object. If not, the result will be
confusion instead of fusion the breaking
up into factions of a grand army of six
and a half million voters, for no other
reasons than the failure to agree upon a
common name and the lack of an un
selfish patriotism stronger than party
prejudice. The question of agreeing
upon principles was settled in the
presidential campaign, and the union
then effected has been cemented at every
convention of either of the allied parties
held since that lime.
The only objection to tho continuance
of this union is the word "fusion," used
by tho gold standard press to frighten
timid men whoso principles are not fixed
beyond tho power of ridicule to change.
An honorable union of forces in a good
cause is just as honorable under the
name of fusion as any other. Those
who voted for Mr. Bryan and are not
sorry they did it and those who did not
vote for him ami are sorry will be glad
to stand together on a platform declar
ing for the free coinage of silver, direct
legislation and reform and retrenchment
in state matters, and protesting against
government by injunction, tho fostering
of trusts and monopolies and the ex
travagance and incompetency within
the slate. Those voters who do not wish
to support such principles will naturally
oppose any union of forces, be they
democrats, populists or silver republi
cans. A DLIOUSTED EDITOR.
The editor of the Petersburg, Indiana,
News, is a rock ribbed republican and
during the latrt campaign was a prosper
ity shouter of acknowledged ability. He
whooped it up for tho g.o. p. and insis.
ted that it was better to open the factor'
its than the uiintH. He also insisted
that if McKinley was elected and a pro
tective tariff law enacted, prosperity
would come in a wave that would fairly
swamp tho country, After election he
said that prosperity wiih on the way and
lulvised hib renders to wait. Every tune
someone asked him why the wave was
not in sight ho merely replied that it was
so big that it hud to travel slowly, Inn
that it was just around the curve. Kvery
week he sum out tho "prosperity supple
mouts" furnished by the republican edl
lorial bureau (confidential), which afore
said "prosperity supplements Wire
filled With prosperity news and minus
all reference to wage reductions. Hut
the editor of tho Petersburg New s is will
ing to admit that hope deferred maketh
the heart sick. In the last issue he
says :
"During each month of the year we
furnished our readers with republican
prosperity supplements no more such
supplements will bo Bent out with our
paper. Tho supplements are a fraud, a
delusion and it lie, We are ashamed of
them, sick and sore at the idctt of Bend
ing out such 'prosperity supplements,'
when at the same time we are unable to
collect money to meet our bills after
having made them."
It was remarked a few days ago, says
the Pittsburg Gazette, Unit one of the
probable effects of the Ohio senatorial
contest would be to give an impetus to the
advocacy of tho election of United States
senators by popular voie instead of by
tho present process. It already has had
that effect, and in eoiisetiuenco presum
ably of the favorable comments along
that line a resolution was offered in the
Ohio assembly favoring the necessary
constitutional change to provide for the
election of senators by direct vote of the
people. H is probable that a similar
resolution will be introduced in the
Maryland legislature, where the condi
tions of the senatorial contest are much
the same as in Ohio, though lacking
some of tho acute features of the hitter.
Whatever may be the direct outcome of
either resolution the agitation for the
change to the popular voting plan for elec
tion of senators is quite certain to goon
until it ultimately effects the change.

The scurrilous attack made by Mr. Pain

The question as to whether Dingley

Mark Hanna and the president want
a special session in Oregon to secure the
return of Mitchell, All the appointments
have been made in the interest of the
Mitchell faction so far. Mitchell is to
come outinalelter in support of the
gold standard in the Oregonian and all
opposition to his return is to be with
draw. So says a little bird. Salem
Journal.
Tiikhe are 8'J members of the U. S.
senate and one vacancy. " There are 60
lawyers now in the senate. The house
of representatives is now composed of
358 members of whom 245 are lawyers.
This shows the advantage of learning

Don't go to Alaska unless you have
money and time to throw away. Some
200 a day are landing at Dyea and
Skagway. Any person who has a good
position is very foolish to give it up and
start for Alaska. Not one in a hundred
will make as much money there as he
had when he started. The money spent
this year in outfitting and going to
Alaska will buy all the gold that leaves
Alaska foi several years. The transpor
tation companies ate making about
$25,000 a trip from their bi.ats. Wait a
couple of years and go there at very little
expense comparatively. If there is as
much gold as is expected there will be
some there then.
