Tpb Couhier Herald has received
from Ex-Secretary of State Kincaid a
copy of his biennial report. It is bound
in morocco (at the expense of the state)
and includes much information.
The rotten and embalmed beef still
stinks, but as yet no move bis been
made to call the big plutocrat packers to
an accounting: for selling such vile stuff

no such move will he made by the

war too liberal in their donations to Mr.
Banna's campaign fund in 1898. . That's
why.
The tramp is one of the products of
the"prntected"mlllionaire trust. Hence,
in the large number of unemployed,
such blisters as the lying "commercial
agencies" of New York see unbounded
prosperity in this country for (In
trusts. But how about the prosperity
of the Fmall manufacturer, the small

and the day laborer, who are idle?

The Courier-Herald has this week
moved its oilice to a larger building on
the ground floor and added a new elec
tric motor, new type and machinery,
which was made necessary by the con
tantly increasing Uwiness. The people
appreciate a good county paper and we
come nearer publishing it than any
other. It don't cost any more to take
the leading paper than it does an infe
rior one and our advertising rates are as
low as the small organs.
It is a painful stu ly to note how aw
fully awful generous some of the skin
flints who aro so s'ingy that they almost
deny themselves a square meal when
they have to pay for the same them
solves become when they are injected
into some oilice where they are em
powered with a vote to expend and
appropriate public funds. They are
then willing to be very generous indeed
and more especially so if it is with
some contractor who has "seen" them
properly. atou this and you will

It is now given out that Hon. William
Solzer, of New York, wi'l be the leader
of the democrats in the next congress
This would be a happy solution of the
democratic muddle in New York and
would mean that New York bimetalists
were to, in future, ignore such false dic
tators as Hill, Oroker, Sheean, Cleve-
lanu, Belmont and all such auxiliary
ciaiaers of the gold clique. And it
might also mean that Congressman
Sulzer would be the nominee on the
democratic ticket for vice-president in
1900. Bryan and Sulzer would be a
winning ticket in 1900, and don't you for
get it. '
Hon. Albert Gallatin, who was secre
tary of the national treasury under bo'h
Jefferson and Madison, from 1801 to
1809, said, in speaking of the power the
banks were even then striving to gain in
this country: "The right of issuing
paper money as currency like that of
..... . ...
gold and silver, belongs exclusively to
t ie nation " and Thomas Jefferson,
hen president, agreed with Mr. G.lla-
un, in tins expression: "Bank ramr
must lie suppressed and the circulating
medium restored to the nation to whom
it belongs." But since Markie Hanna's
president and Markie Hanna's Gage
have control of the Ship of State, they,
changed the combination.'
BRYAN TO BELMONT.
When asked at Chattanooga, Tenn.,
to state point blank if he would attend
the Jeffersonian banquet in New York,
William J. Bryan replied :
"I will come to New York on the loth
of April if it is made distinctly a Chicago
platform banquet in honor of Jeffer
son."
The controversy between William J
Bryan and Mr. Belmont, of New York,
is growing warm. Mr. Brvan has iust
written Mr. Belmont a spirited letter
containing all of the correspondence re
sulting from Mr. Bryan's letter declin
ing to attend the Belmont banquet.
Mr. Bryan expected Mr. Belmont
to
make this public, but he has failed to
do so. On that account Bryan's last
letter to Belmont was given out Monday
night.
Mr. Bryan said that he expected to
attend the dollar banquet to be given in
Ne-r York, if it is held about April 15
but that expensive banquets were injur
ing the democratic party. Speaking of
Belmont, he said:
"It certainly requires a great deal of
effrontery and gall for Mr. Belmont an
those gentlemen who have always fought
us, and who are still our enemies ene
mies to our cause and principles to
organize a banquet to celebaate the
birthday of Thomas .Jefierson and to in
vite distinguished democrats from all
over the nation to be present and
participate with 'them. I have all
the respect in the world for those gentle
men who have differed with us, but to
those gentlemen who are attemptin
such enterprises as this I have nothin;
to say."
SORE II R A D PORTER.
The Enterprise last week devoted
nearly all its editorial columns to th
Courier-Herald. We are surprised to
see the great editorial "we" and the
jo'nt senator from Clackamas and Ma
rion (Clackamas should be omitted as
he was not elected in his own county)
spend so much of his time and editorial
columns in making himself ridiculous
because he lost the county printing after
having had a la v passed so he could
control it. He claims we robbed the
county by charging 20 cents for pub
lishing the tax list when the last time
the Enterprise printed it, it got 25 or 30
cents. We have had a bid on file in the
county court records for several years in
which we agreed to do all the printing
for 25 per cent less than the prevaing
rates. Wo are glad to see the county
save $2,000 on the printing but th
would not h ive happened had Bro,
Porter received the job as he expected
After the bids of the Press and Courier-
Herald were opened, when he-knew 1
could not get it, he made an offer to do
the printing for "5 per cent leBs than
Chenev's bid." How silly. Just think
of a lawyer making such a proposition
as he did to the court.
Millions of money, and the keenest
villians of the lard are even now
pledged, and at work, to capture the
next national democratic convention
in order that the "dead issue," the sil
ver or money question may be suitably
doctored to meet the approval of the
gold clique. The only way to beat those
hessians at their dastardly game is to be
evorjalort. It is the duty of every loyal
bimetalist to be ever vigilant. Com
mence the great battle now by being ex
acting in every political move, and see
to it that no person be raised to a posi
tion of trust by your voteB or your voices
who was not an ardent surporter of the
Chicago platform in ISM- Let no cry of
distress from traitors in the camp draw
your attention or sympathies from the
just cause of the people to the aid of the
worst enemy of mankind the gold
usurers and national pawnbrokers.
Tub Enterprise is making a great
noise because a couple of mid llo-of-the-
road populists stopped the Courier-
Herald and took the Enterprise.
Didn't the Enterprise support their
ticket in the last campaign? If are-
former of any kind can see more merit
in Bupiorting a republican paper than a
democratic or populist sheet he has a
perfect light to do so. But. Mr. Enter
prise, when we lose a mid-road sub
scriber we gain half dozen independent
republicans who can't stomach the or
gan of the trusts and grafters. Mr.
Porter makes a great bluff by saying he
is willing to compare subscription lists
with us. This is not a game of poker,
Bro. Torter, a you should know by ex
perience. If the Cocribr-Herald has'nt
two subscribers for every one the Enter
prise hat in the county it will quit.
To the honest, loyal or concientious
man a public office is a position of trust
and a sacrifice to any ordinary
business. That is, no man who has a
fair business or a good situation can
afford to assume the duties of a public
office without making a sacrifice. It

TRUSTS.
What must be the state of one's mind
who has acted with the republican party
during the last quarter of a century,
when it is getting to be universal.y ad
milted that the great trust octopus
which has been built up under the fos
tering care of the party of great moral
ideas, bids fair at the present time to
become stronger than the government
itself. When we reflect that since the
bloody shirt was abandoned, (he great
republican party has bad but one issue
and that was protection to our infant
industries It does seem that anyone
with ordinaly intelligence would have
seen the unevitabie remit ot sucn a
system, and republican leaders can not
plead ignorance for this policy was
opposed by some of the brightest mi nds
in the country, and results at this time
are exactly as predicted. The howl at
this time by those who see, as did Bel-
shazzer, the hand writing on the wall,
should deceive no one, and the apparent
conversion of some of our so called
statesmen should be taken with a great
deal of allowance. The irresistable tide
of public opinhn is settng strongly
against the trusts, and the unity ones
are beginning to seek shelter from the
c lining storm bv denouncing the trusts
as a menace to our government. Our
republican brethren should possess their
souls in future. They have built up
this gigantic oc'opus which will work
their n in just as sure as night follows
day. The great mass of common people
will settle the trust question over the
combined opposition of centralized capi
tal and the midnight scheming of cor
rupt politicians. It is, in leal, a vary
unenviable position into which our re
publican brethren have fallen, and it is
presumed that they really did not know
that the diminutive infant industry
fowling piece which was loaded for for
eign bear would eventually anihilate the
party who pulled the trigger. 'Tis sad
indeed, to contemplate that the most in
teligent, the most patriotic, the most
oyal, and the most progressive portion
of our matchless American citizenship
have met the enemy in their own house
hold, and in the language of one of old,
they are "his'n.

Oh 1 what a fearful change there has
been in this great country since it fell
into the hands of brigands and robber
chiefs the agents of the heartless shy
locks. In the year 1842 Charles Dickens
visited the United States. He stopped
for some time in Boston, and from that
city wrote to a friend in London, an fol
lows : "There is not a man in this town
nor in this stile who has not a- blazing
fire, and meat every day for dinner, nor
would a flaming sword in the air attract
more attention than a beggar in the
stieet." Yes, indeed, there has been a
change, a terrible change today there
are thousands of beggars in the streets of
Boston , and every other city in the land j
and many thousands there are also with
no blazing fires. This is the "progress"
being made in this country since its laws
are made lor the exclusive benefit of
the usurous money loaning classes; and
whose commerce is rapidly concentrat
ing into the hands of unscrupulous cor
porations and soulless trusts. In 184 J
there whs no legislation to "strengthen
the public credit" by killing off a part
of our m n'-y and issuing gold int-rest-bearing
bonds to loot the national treas
ury with It must have been 'hat let
ter of Charles Dickens that put the
hum in hveanas on the scent that they
have fol'ow-d up with such enormous
profit to themselves and misery to
mill ons of our people who today have
no meat fordinner.no blazing fi'6 at
home but are called tramps.
What would you think of a farmer or J
a merchant who had ten thousand dol
lars in money in bank and who would
let it lie there for the banker to specu
late on or steal; and then borrow
another ten thousand dollars to carry on
hit business with? This would certainly
show that the farmer or merchant had
very little personal regard for bis own
welfare or that of his family, would it
not? Most assuredly it would. But
this is precisely what our gold worship
ing administration does when it issues
bonds for the shy locks and vultures to
loot the treasury with and when they
Ignore the silver in the treasury and pay
all bondholders with gold, which they
iasue bonds to purchase Is it not
about time to turn the rascals out and
put honest men in charge of the affairs
of this na'ion?
Here's what "Honest Job. "
man (as the republicans a i
Sher
to be
proud to call him) says:
I do not hesitate to state that this
expansion business w ill ruin the Ameri
can people, and that the extravagance
of the administration will rivn the re
publican party. Just think jf it! The
debt of the country has b i n increased
within the last two years two hundred
million dollars. I had hoped to live o
see the entire civil wa.' debt wiped out.
I have no hone of that now.

The Silver Knight-Watchman gives
some interesting figures in regard to the
ection of 1896. It shows that :
"Bryan's vote in 1890 was 946,007
greater than Cleveland's vote in 1892,
nd 1,326,817 greater thin Harrison's
vote in that election. Mckinley re
ceived 602,514 more votes than Bryan.
The republican gain was in the states
that are dominated by liic banks, cor
porations and trusts. Hi.rn-oii'g plu
rality over Clcvelan I v. 92 in thestate
of New York. Pennsylvania, Massachu
setts, New Jersey and- Connecticut
amounted to only 21,988, while McKin-
ley's vote in those five' states ex
ceeded Bryan's by 975.043. Three of
these five states gave their electoral
votes to Cleveland in 1892, namely, New
York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
The vote cast for Bryan outside of
New York, Pennsylvania and Connecti
cut is larger than that cast for MiKinley
McKinley's plurality over Bayan in the
whole United States being only 603,514
while his plurality in these threa states
foots up 6i7,837.

East was calculated to interfere with or
dinary business, the sleepless promoters

as a result more trust movements can de

unions might as well disband, for every
organization can be proceeded against
in a similar manner. Thj contest is a
momentus one and is being watched

capitalists alike.
The city council of Danville, Va.,
decided to reduce the price of gas from
$1.25 to $1.00 per 1,000, from April 1.

be given all consumers paying their
bills on or before the fifth of eyery
month. The city owns and operates
the plants. Alexandria, in the same
state, has been making its own gas
ever since gas was first used in this
country, having established one of the
first plants.
Serious Crisis in Jamaica.
NEW YORK, March 29. Special dis
patch to the Herald from Port Antanio,
Jamaica, save: This island is passing
through a severe crisis. The governor
is afraid lo occupy his residence, and if
anarchism does not break out it will be
entirely due to the unequaled loyalty of
the peoile.
Though the island is taxed to its ut
most capacity with a tariff of 60 per
cent on necessaries, a weak government,
in order to provide funds to prevent the
teductionof its members' salaries, has
actually introduced a higher tariff. The
salaries of the Jamaica officials amount
to nearly 50 per cent of the revenue col
lectible. The people, while willing to
cupport hese officials, have not the
means to do it. The home government
will not permit contervailing duties, and
thus the sugar industry is crippled.
Coffee can find no market owing to
the enormous output of the world, and
banana-growing is the only industry to
which the people can look as 'a means of
support. Dependence upon this article
will soon be impossible.
Jamaica wid then be driven by the
British government to anarchism or,
perhaps worse, rebellion.
The island parliament is in session,
and the people's representatives are
fighting hard to throw out the tariff
bills as a measure of relief, and as the
government side is further strengthened
by an additional four members to out
vote the people, it will Bucceed. The
