JUDGE WILLIAMS AT LA GRANDE
Boy Orator a. Blatant Dcxnaffoyue and
in No Wise I'ittod Cor tno
Prpsldcney.
X.A. GRANDE, Oct. 25. Judge George H.
Williams, of Portland, spoke at Steward s
Opera-bouse last night to an audience of
about 1200 people. He arrived, on the
morning- train, and was the guest of the
local Hepublicans during the day. A com
mittee of 100 met Judge Williams at 'the
train and escorted him to the parlors ct
the Hotel Foley, where a pubLc recep
tion was held for ono hour.
In, the afternoon, in company with
prominent Republicans, be visited the
bepxsugar factory.
A torchlight procession had been
planned for the evening, -buf a heavy
downpour, of rain prevented its' belnjg car
ried out.
Judge Williams' remarks were d liv
cred extemporaneously, but were replete
with a sincerity and vigor that won. the
lavor of the audience. The speaker r.
late4 in the outset that, inasmuch as
other speeches had been delivered h"re,
lie would not cover the same grpun.d, but
woujd confine his remarks chiefly to Can
didate Bryan. He proposed, be raid, to
convince his auditor that the fusion"
nominee fox the Presidency is cot worthy
of the support of the practical, thlnjUlng
people of th.e United states, and tha he
is npt a safe man to trust with the af
fairs of the Qcvernmenf. "There are two
candidates," said tbe speaker, "which do
you Intend tp suoport? In making up
your answer, "consider 5Vll the 'candidates
and their principles. One is racing about
the country begging and pleading for
votes, telling what .he SJTpuJd do Jf e.ected,
and belittling- his opponent. With such a
man there is great danger that in office
lie would descend from the plane ol
statesmanship Jo mere demagogy, fcr, ac
cording to the definition, Bryan is a. dem
agogue pandering tp the people to in
fluence their prejudices and their fas
eions. "His actions during and preceding the
present campaign have shown him a dem
agogue in several Instances First, in the
matter of the treaty wjth. pain. It re
ojiircd a twp-thirds yote pf fho Senate,
and therefore a number of Democratic
votes to ratify, 3?Ji.owlng tljis, Bryan
rusbed to Washington and bent tyery ef
fort to secure the ratipcatlpn, TM? ha
admits, and Senator Hoar and others
claim that without Bran's influence tl)e
treaty would not have heen ratified. His
purpose in. so dolpg was nojt to increase
our commercial greatness and extend, the
Influence of the flag, but to create an
Issue and subserve his own intere:ts.
Be knew that free silver was a feeble
issue and that some other must be cre
ated. He accordingly worked for the Tat
ificatlon, though it gave the United States
a. clear title, provided for possession and
the payment of 520,000,000, and gave the
Inhabitants civil rights. If is manifest
that if Bryan had remained at home the
treaty would not btv, e been ratified, and
all of the turmoil which iie now depre
cate would hae heen avoided. I ask
without party prejudice whether such a
candidate is worthy of support?
'McKinley is criticised because he dees
not withdraw the troops He nas no right
to do so. The treaty is binding, it de
clares our title and ownership. McKinley
is bound by the Constitution to execute:
the treaty, and if he gave aw ay any ter
ritory would deserve to be removed from
office.
"A second instance la which Bryan re
veals himsejf a demagogue is Jn hjs ef
forts to divide the people 3pd create an
tagonisms, especially between the laborer
and the employer. The whole drift ot his
speeches is that the men who employ la
borers ore the unprincipled enemies -of
those whom they employ. He recognizes
that the laborers are 4n the majority, and
hopes py arousing their nrejudices to In
fluence their votes. He holds up the busi
ness men. to scorn, as if they were en
gaged in criminal pursuits He denounces
all people who have accumulated wealtji.
""A third example of Bryan's many Jn.- I
consistencies Is his attitude on the trust
question. He continues to make the fa'se
assertion that the trusts are all yrjthjn
the Republican party, when as a mat
ter of fact they are mere business asso
ciations, unaffected by politics. Thir ob
ject is to make money, and business
Democrats are just as eager to ajaty
themselves of the means as are the Her
publicans. There 4s no difference hetw-en
men in this respect, -and Bryan therefore
bears false witness against a iarge part
of our people when he asserts that trusts
are restricted to itie Hepubllcaii arty."
Judge Williams was vigorous in his de-
nuncjatjon of Bryan's insincerity in this j
regard. He touched lightly -upon the
money (question, but .emphasized the fact
that whatever might be made of Impe
rialism, the trusts and otfrer similar is-J
sues, the real issue was whether thsl
American people wished to retain the
present prosperity or enter. pon a period j
of doubt, uncertainty and depression, if
not of vicious legislation. Nothing, he j
6a1d, was worse than uncertainty, and
uncertainty and a lack of confidence -in
the money centers was certain Jo ensue 1

Representative Tongue and .C E. S.
"Wood "Were the peahxjx.
GRANT'S PASS, Or., pet. '6. It was a
Srreat day a toe history of the present
campaign ip Oregon when Hon. Thomas
H. Tongue and 3Jon. C. E. j. Wopd-appeared
on tho platform in the opera
house in joint discussion yesterday after
noon and xA4iIng.
Lirfre audiences irreeted the speakers
at both meetings, and folio wed their de-
bat vt 1th close attention. It seas evident I
from the outset that Mr. Tongue was
master of the situation, and as the dis
cussion proceeded impartial judges could
see hat 2r. Wdoa was no inatch for the
honorable gentleman from HHJsboro.
In a tjc-o hours speech, Mr. Tngue
Te"ievftd the present prosperous condi
tions and how thej -uime abjut, yoinicd
out that the promises made by the Re
publican party four years ago had been J
fulfilled, and that if it was wrong to re
tain the Philippines it is also wrong to
hold Porto RJtgJ, Alaska, California, or
Txas. He was interrupted by frequent
applause.
Mr. Wood's reply occupied but half an j
hour. He sfafed that it was impossible
for the Administration to make prosper
ity, .adding: "What are you going to
mike it out of?"
In the ovonlng. Mr. Wood spoke for 2
hours, on imperialism, comparing Aguln
aldo to Washington, and stated that the
Philippines should ics Iree as Is Cuba.
He plalnlj said that he was in favor f 3
the row tanaarc, and that it would be
a great economic fallacy to have free J
coinage of silver.
Mr. Tongue ably replied to every point
made by Mr. Wood. The 'depjteendedi

paigning this part Of- the state in behalf
of the Republican ticket, and is very
hopeful for his party. In an interview
with an Qregonlan reporter he stated:
J'I have been -making speeches in Qwy

Jjemhl are old Republican counties,
but they almost unanimously 'sup

They were considered" the stronghold of
the Democrats in this campaign. Can
yon 'and Washington were also strongly
for Bryan four years ago on the same
issue I have spent about 12 days in
those counties, from, 'which we expectea
jhe strongest opposition to the Republl
pan parry. I do not .say that Owyh'ee,
Lremoi or Custer will give a majority ior
Mclftniey. but I do say that tho Demo
cratic "majority -will be so small that it
will be easily overcome by the heavier
majorities from Republican counties.
"In some of the counties the Republi
can nominee for Governor will have a
majority, and in each some of the Re

In a pew and clearer light than they had
yet been placed before an Ashland audi
ence. The speaker took up many -of the the
ories advanced by C. B. S. Wood, of
Portland, Jp support; of Bryan at his
speech in tho Tabernacle this afternoon,
and proved their inconeb?tcncie3 in a
telling way,
His address occupjed more than three
hours n lp delivery, and was marked
by frequent bursts of applause through

J. Dean, pf Tafent, an old echoolinate
and friend. Music was furnished by the

Foiled to Interest Audience.
4SHIiAiND, Or., Oct. 26. The .first Bry
anlte meeting pf the campaign was held
in the Chautauqua Taberpacle thl3 after
noon, C. E. S. Wood, of Portland, being
tne star orator. An audience of less than
150 greeted the speaker, ..many of them
belqg Republicans who had a curiosity to
hear the much-heralded former Gold
Democrat,
Mr. Wood's address vas very long and
tjresome, to his audience. He touched on
mapy points at issue Jn the caznpaign,
but wobbled v,ery badly on most of them.
The only two points that he seemed to
bo well grounded in were tha theory of j
xree fraae ana fie so-called issue of im
perialism. On nearly every other subject
Ijp said hjs mind was not fully deter
mined. He quoted the spook "so-called
Lincoln letter from the Democratic text- j
oook, opt declined to vouch ior its au
thenticity, sajing It was "good" read
ing, and he would jet if go at that.
His audience gradually dulndled in
numbers and after half of them had re
tired he closed his remarks.

F'pREST GROyE, Oct 25. Charles
Johnsop, of Gaston, Or., a strong Dem
ocrat, said today that he would cast his
vpta November f for McKInley. fie said
he. saw to his sorrow the extreme hard
times of iS82-95. His -vote aided in brinsr-
iiyr on thajt crisis, as it was cast forJ
wpver yieyeiana, ana ne is or the oplplop
thaj the same conditions would follow

Mr. Johnson is Jhe gentleman who re
ceived J5 cents per pound for his hops
this year the highest price pId in "this
vicinity, Last Saturday he purchased of j
j. a. isriEDine tne rarm on which he
raised these hops for $3200. His returns
from the crop this year were $1600, or one
half the purchase price, and with the
i-election pf McKinley, which will insure
another four years of prosperity, he ex
pects to cjpar up another 1GOO ne year,
and be abe to free the place of'debt.'
Political Parade Jiot Aoycd.
SPOKAE, Wash., Oct. 26 -Spokane
Democracy Is almost in arms against
'Mayor Comstock, who is. a Republican,
oecause ne rerueea to grant a permit for
ja. Democratic parade the night preceding
ejection. The Republicans had asked for
and obtained a permit for that night, and
the Mayor explained tp the Demociats
Jthat he feared -a coljislon if two demon
strations were carried on at the jsame
time. The Democrats contend that 'the
city is large ,enough for two, '-and there
hasnever .been the slightest cause for
apprenension tnat rival ppimcai organiza
tions will come to blows' The Democrats
are muttering and growling, but the
Maor is the court of last resort, and J
tnat seems to settle t$ matter.

expresses the opinion that the oencnes

considerable extent, and with profit. He
thinkri that much xnore gpid will be taken
out of that region next year than has
been this jear, for the reason that more
careful prospecting will be .done. This
year he says the miners went to that
country In a sort of stampede and ran
over a whole lot of country without do
ing much careful prospecting. Next year
they will p& more caieful and will meet
with better results.

"or the past wo years the" Northwest
h'as.been ijirnlshlng most of the animals
used'bythe United States cayalry In tlje
PbJl.iPBines. It seems to be an estab
lished fact thjkt the jjardy animals taken
from he Eastern Qregpn range are" vfell
adapted tp lard servlpe n the trpplcs.
jLast year! Captain Wainwrishtpurchased
JJ200 borsef, securing the greater number
in Eastern and'lYestern Oregon and "Pastr
ern" Washington. During the Jatter part
of the year. Captain Cheever was also
in the field, and made an equal number
of puYchasesf -
So far this year, paptaln 'Walnwright
has' bought about 1200 horses. He has
iakett the animals from the Willamette
yalley and Southern Oregon mtil tho
present contract, whilp Captain Cljesver
operated in this seption. No reports have
been received from the Philipplns on the
endurance of-the Eastern Oregon horses
sept .to the Lslnd, but the fact thaf
calls, for more 'fplj-0 each other In sapid
succession jvpyUi indipate that the anl
n)als are "satlefactpry.-
4"he h,orses ecure,d thp present' trip
are a "fine lot- No diminution In thp
quality or quantity Is noticeabkv beoause
of M-e large demands made J?y the jGov
efnment during the past two years. When
seen after the work of receiving the An-ims-fs
had ,, been finished Captain "Vain
wright expressed ilmset as well pleased
J and In the course of conversation paid a
nujh compliment to tne pastern orjjgon
horses for cavalry in the field..
'The bunchgrass horse of this section,"
said he, "has been found especially val
uable, on accpunt pf. his excellent wind j
anu gooa reet. ne is propamidine Dest
horse-fpr good, hard service that can be
pnreha3ed anywhere.
"For the regular cavalry service a little
better-bred animal of larger size Is re
quired fhan most of those presented for
Inspeotlon now. But I must say many
of the horses now being recelyed for serv
ice in the tropics would make excellent
animals for the regular service. They
combine proper size and breeding with
all-the qualities of endurance. Gpod wind
ajjd fine feet are characteristlps pf Jhe
bunchgrass animal. When llsay that ths
pass is not sp suitable to the reguiar
cayajry, I refer to the general run of
range horses I have bought horses in
Baker GJty today which, with their very
little ha.ndllng.'are as fine a type of the
regular cavalry horse as I have ever seen.
"It'ls well knpwn that these Western
hprses have a streak;' of 'what used to
be known as broncho blood This is, what
gives them, their bucking proclivities. Bui
this ;taint o'f brpncho blood does not at all
detract from the value of the hocse fpr the
service, if he Is constantly handled. The
perfecj; cavalry horse should combine 'the
hardy and gpod qualities of 'the" Western
horse wlihthq .docile disposition wjich Is
found '"mainly in" the hprses""pf"Kfin'tujcKy
and" Missouri- 'All gpQdAcavalry"horse3
must be thoro-ughly broken, in the fullest"
sense of the term, obedient to the wU of
his rider, but in seeking th)s disposition
we cannolL iose sight pf thp hardy qualities
found in the Western horse in sue a pre
eminent degree.''
In choosing horses for the cayalry of
the Philippines, Captain Walnwright has
kept within given limits. His action Is
best indicated In hfs definltlpn of the
most desirable animal for that service,
which is as follows:
"My type of a cavalry horse for the
Philippines Is one from 14 to 15 hands
high, weighing betweeh 850 and "10Q
pounds, closely built, short-coupled, fine
feet, large barrel, good, solid color, which
means I would take an iron gray, but
prefer, brown, bay, black or sorrel. The
animal filling these requirements should
also be properly broken. Of course there
are many other minor points taken Into
consideration in passing on a horse, such
as hfs legs, -how he Is set up, his moye
ment and carriage, etc."
The result of sending Eastern Oregon
horses to the Philippines will be watched
with great interest by stockmen of this
secilon'of the"state. "Until the past three
yars, demand for Eastern Oregon horses
was notnIn5- They were generally re
garded as a burden, almost without yalue.
Increased vpe of cavalry Js brJngIns
horses to the front, as there are more
than United States Government agents in
the field. A short tinie ago an agent for
the German Government, who had failed
to find" what he wanted In California,
spent considerable time In Eastern, Ore
gon and made pome pui chases The Phil
ippines will fully demonstrate the yalue
of this Jjardy stpek for tropical service.
Should it' be found, 4s stockinen belEvo
Wilj be the case, that Eastern Oregon
hprses rival those from any other partion
of tjie country In the field cayalry service,
a market ls,ppened that will again ren
der horse-raising on the ranges'profitqbje.
Mining excepted, horses have beep one
of trie most prolific sources of Jncome for
Baker gtaupty during the past two ears.
Of the "173 shipped today, nearly -nJJ wire
gathered In this county. The tockmen
and farmers were paid nt about the rate
of $40 and J50 a head by the contractors
Many uch lP.ts 3 present pne have
been taken away,' bringing ,to the count
many thbusand dollars. But better horses
have been received by Captain Waln
wright this time than before The de
mand Js not exhausting the supply. A
stimulus has been given the business, and
the ranges arc again being stocked up
with better animals than ever before
