date. Reports Iron) the several parts of

The special object of the meeting was
to act upon the resignation of Mr. Wm.

on account of the ill health of himself
and family w hich made it impossible for
him to give the time to the canvass and
to the office which should be

good and sufficient reasons for the failh
that is within him and who has shown
his colors in such a substantial manner
i hat the committee had no hesitation in
naming him as a candidate for represen

general approval and be pleasing to the
people of lsw go, w tio united in asking

Sjateiu of the I lilted mates.
To Til r Khitoh; The populist orators
and their printed organs am dally denounc
ing our national tianklng system, making
false alateineiits an to the manner In which
it waa adopted, and falsely iiiotlng Abra
ham Lincoln as predicting that all the
country's wealth will b aggregated In slew
hands tint the republic destroyed. To all
who are Inclined to put faith in such alate
me n Ik. and especially to young voters who
have failed to read and study the history
of the past, the writer commends not only
Hit perusal hut the ttidy.uuill It ia fully
understood, of tin following extract from
President Lincoln's llrst annual message to
congress, Pucemtwr 1st, IHil'J:
11 The suspension of specie payments by
th banks, soon aner the commencement of
your last session, made large issues of I'M
ted Stales notes unavoidable. In no other
way (Mold the payment of the tumps, and
the satisfaction of other Just demands, lie
so economically, or to well provided for.
The judicious legislation of congress, secur
ing the rts-elvabillly of these notes for loans
and Internal duties, and making them a
legal tender for other debts, has made them
an universal rurreicv; and has salisllrd,
partially, at leant, and for the time, I lie long
lelt want of an millorm cin'ulatlng me
dium, suv lug thereby to the people Immense
sums In discount ami exchanges.
" A return to specie payments, however, at
the earliest period compatible w lih due rr-
ttard load interests concerned, should ever
he kept In view. Fluctuations in the value
of currency are alwav Injurious, and to
reduce lhe.e lluctuationa to the lowest xint
will always tw a leading piire in wine
legislation. Convertibility, prompt and cer
tain convertibility into coin, ia generally ac
knowledged to he the best ami the turret
safeguard against them ; and it is ettiemely
doubtful whether a circulation ot I'nlted
Slates notes, payuble in edit, and snltl-
uiiisl peaceably disperse, and at an early
day, or It will meet with tt fale Its Innatlcal
leaders have not counted on. It cannot
long be fed gratuitously, nor can It longer
he permitted to steal and approprlatn In lla
own use railroad or other property, If II
persists to the eilent that many fear, and
that other here hi Oregon City hope lor,
the populist party will lose a large portion
ot Us number In hospitable graves In the
vicinity of the nallnn'i capital, If any one
Is shocked at this let lilui know that he w ho
sets his neighbor'! house In a blaie cannot
complain If he Is doomed to a deadly warm
ing at the lire. And II bloody anarchy la to
be Inaugurated the country over let those
who have home to protect remember that
Tom'i voltage and Jim's caall are no aaler
from plunder than the castles of the " plu
tocrats" a lew block' tlislaut on the same
bluir.
In lbs writer's view there la an element
In thia Coxey movement w Inch la not gen
erally rrcognlted. Communism is the un
derlying principle of lha whole thing, se
cretly managed ami guided by coiuiiiun
Isilo leader. The rank and II le may not
know fur what pnrpoe they are Is-lng used,
hut It la expected by roitimuiilsla that when
the demands of the army are not compiled
with, si Kiev certainly will not be, ami hun
ger ami starvation threaten, then the Inob
w ill "clean out" the national capital, over
throw "the present order," and then the
"co-operative leaders" are to alep In and
organle " the eo-oi-cralive common wealth."
Money, ronlrol of one' own tmliiea, Indi
vidual ownership of properly, are to Ix no
where, while -rnte and plenty without
labor, except under the direction of "clioneu
leaders," are to lie everywhere.
This article la loo extended to permit the
wrilerloglve extracts In proof of the si.lou
I taken, but he has cinumunisllc literature
j before him In which this "Industrial army"
movement as it now aliiuds la comnlrtely
j outlined. True, It Is given under another
I name, Jut what ia to le the tlnal act to ac
complish the government's overthrow the
(author of the IsHik dot-a oof aiate, but lie I
j suggest, that ''dynamite may U used,"
Ami It la well worthy id thai men who
have circulated thla hook In lha county,
and have defended Its principle In puhllH
discussion, are now candidate for nllicc on
the populist ticket. Can men who have
home to protect ami who wish to enjoy llif
blessing or a stable gover enl afford to
place their Interest In such hainUT l-el tin
Vole cast at the June election tell,
I have wandered somewhat from my '
Hut If any one exclaim that audi design
I have attributed to eommunli are Its)
ahslltd and fanatical to be entertained by
American cltlen I have only lo point hint
to Old John Urown who undertook wllh
an armed lon e of seventeen white men and
live nexroe to eaptuie the great alal of
Virginia. If a man of hie calibre etmhl
dream that such a thing were mslhle, and
could seduce talented voting luen to billow
him Into a death trap at Harper's Ferry, It
la easy enough to Imagine, with proof nil
the aiirfuce lo hark It. that lanathsof Tar

However the foregoing may t received

" Is there, then, any other mode In which
the necessary provision for the public want
can lie made, and thegrrat advantages of a
safe and Uniform currency secured?
"I know of none which promise o cer
tain results, and is, at the aame lime, o un
objectionable, as the organling of banking
associations, under general act ol congress,
well guarded in its provision. To such as
sociation the government might fumiali
circulating notes, on the security ol the
I'nited Staien bonds deMsted in the treas
ury. The notes, prepared under the iiM-r-vision
of the proper ulllcers, being iinllorio
In appearance and security, anil converti
ble l ay into coin, would at once protect
latsir against the evil of a vicious currency,
and laciliiate commerce by cheap ami aafo
exchanges.
" A moderate reservation from the Inter
teresl on lb bonds would compensate the
I'nited State for the preparation and dis
tribution of the notes, and a general super
vision of the system, and would lighten the
burden of that part of the public debt em
ployed as (ectiriile. The public ere, I It,
moreover, would be greatly Improved, and
the negotiation of new loans greatly facili
tated by the steady market demand lor gov
eminent bonds which the adoption of the
prcpnser system would create. '
From the above extract it will lie clearly
seen that Mr. Lincoln wa really the origin
ator ami projector ol our national hanking
system a well as an idvorateof isaulng gov
ernment bonds, ile stood for uc h a cur
rency only as could be promptly and cer
tainly converted into coin, 1'opuiista in
their ignorance are not generally aware of
this lad. Once convince them of it truth
ami we may expect to find them cursing
the memory of Abraham Lincoln and de
nouncing him as an advocate of plutoc
racy! To do mi would be perfectly consist
ent w ith their past record. From publish
ing a forged extract pur Kjrting lo Ix from
his pen, running it from week lo week and
year to year, they would naturally rush into
any absurdity however abhorrent It might
lie. Robespierre is represented In French
history a being a very aolt-lirarted, mild
mannered man when he started on his ca
reer in the French revolution. He estab
lished wild license where freedom should
have prevailed, even imprhnned and de
creet! the death of Thomas Paine who had
gone to France to assist in the establish
ment of rational liberty on the downfall of
Ilnurlmiil-ni, and w as cut off in hi career
w hile gloating over the flow of human blood.
In like manner the VV'alles, the I'ennoyers,
and the little Tom-tits who run for county
nlllces they are incapable of filling, and rep
resent liciltious stock In a subsidized paper,
are all alike on the down grade to anarchy.
Starting with false premises banking them
up with falsehood and forgery threatening
the use of dynamite and the deadly riflu
vowing they will wade in blood to their
horses' bridles unless their peculiar views
are adopted, they wind up with sending
an army of tramp (able-bodied men beg
ging and stealing their way ) to overawe con
gress into doing what it never can and never
will do.
