SEYMOUR EATON- EC MrVOtt PARTIES. BT JESSE MACT. LL. D. Besides the two leading political parties hlch have embraced the great body or American voters little groups or coteries i of citizens desirous of inaugurating some political or industrial or social reform, or tactions especially opposed to certain sieasures or tendencies of the great par . ties-, .have sometimes assumed the name and form of political parties. Occasion ally tbese hae become powerful enough permanently to influence, lor good or ill. tae cour?e of political history. More fre- quently they nave proved of little lasting consequence and have only strewn along the current a series of grotesque or tem porarlly significant names, whose origin and meaning have been soon forgotten. Some of the earlier of -these names crept "into National political history from the Pactional strifes which very soon became Characteristic of New York politics. The superior wealth and. power of three great families In that state Introduced there as In no other state a tendency' among par ties and factions to divide along family and personal lines. "CllKtpaiams" and "Backfalls." After the close of the war of 1S12 the Republicans of flew York became divided in respect to the construction of the .Erie , Canal This was .the form which the, .pol icy of Internal improvements by the 'Gov ernment took in New York, and to the promotion of that enterprise De Witt Clin ton devoted a large part of hfs public life. Hs political Tollowets were called "Clln tonlans" and the canal was derisively named "Clinton's ditch." Hence those fa, voring the general theory of public Im- provements are sometimes referred to aa Clintonlans,', Those in the New York Assembly most strongly opposed, to. the Erie canal were the Tammany members of the Republican party from New York City. One of -the emblema of the Tammany society was a buck's tall worn In the hat, and from that came the name "Bucktalls," by which they -were commonly known. During the canal controversy the term came to be ap plied ln a general way to all who op. posed the canal system. The factions Jn New York parties always .tended to play an important part in what are known as "third-party" movements in National politics. This was true in re spect to the "wide question of interna! improvements, but 'tftese Jocal name, have, strictly speaking, no place in Na- . tionai party history. "HaBken" "Barn-Burnera" aeail "Lodo Focoi." These are all factional names originating In New York. The '"hunkers" are some times Identified with "bucktalls" meaning those opposed to the canal system ut such an application of the title is retro, spective rather than exact, for the nam did not come Into use until about 1844. It was applied to the conservative Demo crats representing, says Professor John ston, "the inertia of the party," and op. posed to the "barn-burners," who were the. Radicals. The name is believed e to. "have come from the Dutch word "houk," station or home, and so stands for the sta -at-home Democrats who opposed changes. Professor Von Hoist, however, derives It from "hanker," as Indicating" the greediness of the faction for the spoils of office. The' ''barn-burnere" were the extremists who v-,ould burn down the building to get Tjd of the rats. They followed Van Buren as their leader, and with him most of them went into the free-soil party in 1E4S. Into these two factions tho Democratic party was more and more widely split dur.hig the 5 ears' from 1S44 to 1S48. The dl ; vision -was apparently heated In 185$i-buc - reappeareH-a"mosrmmedtetely,nbe hunk ers calling themselves the "hards" or,, "hard shells," while their opponents were knownas "softs." The line of separation "vas drawn chjefly with, rferenpo to the slavery ,qnest4on. This factional dlelnte ,v gratlon of the Democratic party gave op portunity to the Whigs, who elected thelt fitate ticket In 1554, and the Democrats of New York did not regain a majority until 1S62. As the Democratic party in New York was split by the canal question and by the slaver question, so also was it split by the bank controversy during 1833-9. The 'regular" Democrats, while opposing the United States hank, favored the chartering of new state banks. The "loco tocos" called themselves the "Equal-Rights party," and opposed the giving of special privileges to any Incorporated bodies. The name "loco foco" seemed to strike thv popular fanc, and ere long became Na. tlonal in Its use, as designating the radi cal wing of the Demcratic party, antf was often used in a general way for the whole party. Tho -origin of the nickname- is assigned to the j ear 1S34, when at .a, stormy Demo cratic meeting in Tammany Hall, New York City, the regular Tammany Demo crats turned out the gas and wlthdfew. The other faction were supplied with candles, which they immediately lighted with ,Joco-foco (or friction) matches and went on with their business. The two branches of the partv in New York were brought together in 1837 by the skillful management of President Van Buren, hut for some 10 years .longer-the National Whig party .persistently applied the name "loco focos" -to-ttxeir opponents, ceeking thus to imply thalcthe Democrats were opposed to the moneyed Interests ot 1 the country. The Anti-Masons. In 1S26 a New .York man named William Slorgan threatened to publish a book which he had written exposing the secrets of the order orFreemasoirs. Shortly after ho disappeared and was never again heard of. There was widespread excitement. - The leading Freemasons of the region were- freely charged with having conspired for Morgan's abduction- and murder. Noth ing was ever proved, but the strong feel ing aroused took a political aspect. A large anti-Masonic vote was cast at local ' elections against candidates who were Masons. By 1S the anti-Masons had ab sorbed or displaced the National Republi can party in New York. Among tht prominent anti-Masons were Thurjqw Weed, William Hr Seward and Millard rtllmore. The new party spread and gath ered considerable force In some of the other states, and in 1S31 it took the flelo as a National organization. Its National convention of that sear was the first in . our history. By nominating William Wirt of Maryland for President the-anti-Masons hoped to prevent' the nomination of Clay hy the National Republicans. The result of the election was, to give the anti Masons, -the electoral ,vote of Vermont Pnl. They played some further part in state politics in .one, or two states, but aev er again figured Jn National affairs. Most of them went into the Whig pSrty, which they were able to influence in the campaign of 1S46 so far as to defeat the nomination of Clay and Xorce that of Har. rison. . The history of. the anti-Masonic -party illustrates the impossibility of effectively maintaining a National party organization upon the narrow basis of a sinsle idea not vitalb connected writh broad political principles. The "AmerlcanV or "KnoTr-Xoth-inr.' "" A unique epiae in our political hlstorj is the career of the American or know nothing party. It was a secret, oath bound, nameless order nameless ven to its members, until :they had 'reached the . higher degrees In the lodge. Its nomina tions were made by conventions of dele a gates from the various lodges, secretly held and of absolute binding authorlry upon All member, of the order. No public announcements were made as to the can- - didates. Sometime they were chosen Ironi the most acceptable names oa the tickets ot the great parties, and the cal culations of the party managers were often mysteriously brought to naught, and elec tions were decided in a surprising manner by an unknown,. Incalculable force dreaded by both Whigs and Democrats. The causes "of the rise of this curious order may be traced back almost to the adoption of the constitution, to the time when th& Bne of. division between Federal ists and Republicans began to be affected, by the character and temper of the immi grants who came from Europe. Many ot these were exiles from their own land as unfriendly to. its government. Thej were naturally attracted most strongly to the Republican or Democratic party, and na. turally also a disposition to resent aUen Influence in American politics gained strength among the Federalists. The alien and sedition laws passed in 179S by a Fed eralist congress illustrate this. In 1S3S to 1S37 a revival of the feeling against giving political place and power to foreigners was attempted In New York City, where the foreign population was growing rapid ly. For some years the idea of natlvism as opposed to alienism figured more or less in state and local politics in several states and led to occasional Violence and even bloodshed at the polls. But it was not until about 1S52, when the sectional Blavery agitation was be coming serious, that partisan Jealousy 01 foreign political influence, having as sumed a new form, began to take a de cisive hand In party struggles. The secret order was variously designated. Its real name is said to have been "The Sons of '76, or the Order of the Star-Spangled Banner' but It has come down in his tory as the "American" party, or more .familiarly the "Know-Nothings," "because its members when questioned gave the in variable reply, T don't know."" The ends sought came ere long to be known as the placing and keeping of all political power in the hands of native Protectant Ameri cans, and the making of opposition "to Roman Catholicism an issue In American politics. Advocacy of these principles was, of course, strongest in the Whig party, for the Democratic ranks were constantly- swelled by newly naturalized Immi grants, many of whom were Catholics. In the formation of the Republican party in 1856 those WTjigs who were unwilling to go the length proposed by the leaders of the new party In hostility to slavery saw nothing left for them hut to unite with the anti-alien party which had b that time accented tho name American. It was only in the Middle and Southern States that the "Americans" ever ac quired much strength. In the South, where native feeling was strong and the foreign element almost nil, it practically tobk the place of the Whig party. Its first appearance as a National party .vas In 1836, when a secret convention adopted an Imposing platform, and an open conven tion nominated Millard Fillmore for Pres ident. In the election which followed the eight electoral votes of Maryland were all that went to the ambitious American party, though the popular ote was S74.S5. Once more. In 1860, the "Americans" we'nt into the Presidential campaign and then disappeared, having shown, as. Horace Greeley said, "about as many of the ele ments of persistence "as an anti-cholera or an anti-potato rot party would have." The Liberty and Free-Soil Parties. The American Anti-Slavery Society be. came divided about 1839 Into two sections over the question of political action. The GarrisonJan abolitionists refused to recog nize or to have any relations -with a Na tional Government 'whose Constitution made compromises with the iniquitous sys-. i,tem of slavery. The more moderate wing iu.vuii.-u jrjuucu iueinous Oi WorKing against the evil, and urged -the nomination- end support of abolitionists for of fice. - A convention of. these speeders, as the were called, -net Tat Albany In 1S40. named themselves the Liberty party ana nominated James G.-Blrney for the Presu dency. Though he declined the honor, some 7000 votes were nevertheless cast fo? hlnT-at. the electron. In 184i Birney -as again the nominee of the Liberty party and received ,300 votes enough, it will he remembered, to defeat Clay and elect Polk. Though the Liberty party held a conven tion In 1847 and nominated candidates, the political conditions of the next 5 ear in duced the leaders to abandon the organ-, ization and Join with the barnburners to form the Free-Soil party. The new party held a convention at Buffalo. Their chief principle, as promulgated In the pre amble to their long platform, was de clared to be the seuri.ng of "free soil to a free people," and they avowed a deter mined hostility to any further extension of slavery. The .vote cast for the free soil candidate was 291,263, nearly all being from the free states. Both of the old parties were more or less surprised and demoralized, and the Whig candidate was elected. The compromises of 1S50 were rejected by the free-fiollers, and in 18S2 they took the name of "Free Democracy," and nomi nated John'. Hale and George W. Julian. Their -platform denounced both Whigs'and Democrats as each one wing "of the great slave compromise PArty of the Nation." The vote polJed.waa'but a litUe more than half that of the preceding campaign Before another Presidential election hoth Whigs and Free-Solars, or Free Demo crats, had disappeared from Congress. The party has a history of only about five years. At the end of that time It helpeo, to form the Republican party. Note.

The Portland Academy won the decisive game In tho Interscholastlc baseball series Saturday afternoon from the Bishop Scott Academy, and Thereby obtains permanent possession of the elegant Feldenhelmer trophy. The score was 21 to II. and the play was poor throughout. Both sides had rooters galore on the- field! but thy yells seemed to possess -mare of the power of rattling than encouraging. The B. S. A.'s lot was an uphill one, but they showed the superior stuff they are made of, and piled up eight of their 11 runs in tho last two lnntbgs. Thoy hod bad luck also, for Swingler. by far the best man. In the league, has been 111 for two weeks, and was barely able to stand up. Weatn erford, the captain, was Injured In .the sixth Inning and carried from the field, but he p uckily returned and took a pface in center field. Martin took his place he hind the bat, and Templln went into the box. The latter is rogarded as the coming ball player In Oregon. He has played about everv position on his team, and Is equal to them all. His three-base hit yes terday "was the feature of the game. For the Portland Academy, Stott and Pease were the stars, but the others were all In good f ornC Barber in center, Wood ard in left, and Labbe in right received a number of chances and came out of the game with a clean place In the error col umn.
