UNITING AGAINST GOLD MACHINE.
Chairman Cooper now has his head
quarters at Portland. The People are
In Earnest
The Union of Keform forces over
the state of Orogon hat, considerable
local significance. It means tliat
the anti-tuonoiKliHta and the unti
gold i teg will get together and give
the gold advocates a hard fight in
the approaching campaign, u nion
has been effected in many of the
counties and notwithstanding the
opposition press has been trying
hard to split up the silver followers
the move to checkmate hue not pre
vailed. In all the signatures on
county culls sent to Chairman Coo
per are to be found the names o
the most prominent iiopuliste, min
gling with Bryan democrats and
republicans.
The silver people want a fight for
principle and they are now in a
way to get it. They are no longer
to be divided against themselves
and It augurs victory next June.
This is us it shoull be. The ma
jority of silver men want a clear
cut light and any move to set party
higher than th? issue will avail
nothing ugainBt the upheaval of
popular and sensible sentiment.
Mr. Cooper has received letters
from the leading populists of the
state in d they are ready to light on
common ground. Ofcourne, there
ure a few who object, notably John
C. Young, and Mayor I'ennoyer.
Mr. Young desires to "unite" under
populism's banner, while I'ennoyer
desires to unite on the Chicago
platform. As both are reasonable
men there is no doubt but what
both will support a movement coin
ing from the source of the people
who ure opposed to syndicate gov
ernment. One thing is certain
there will be a hot light in Oregon
next spring.
CHAS. A. BOWEN
A Prominent G. A. R, man and
Mason Died Christmas day.
Charles A. Bowen, well known in
this citv and a nrominent member
of the General Ransom Tost and a
seventh degree Muboii, died Christ

week from pneumonia. Mr. Howen

Doing here had worked at the
sSkle of carpentry.
Deceased was born in Washing
ton county, New York, and moved
to Iow:i while yet in his teens.
When the civil war came he enlist
ed in Company K, 22nd Iowa, was
at VickBburg and Cedar Creek, at
which letter place he was captured
by the Confederates before Sheri
dan arrived to save the day to the
Unionists, liowen served some
eleven months in the various Con
federate prisons before exchange
was made.
After leaving the service he wis

young couple moved to Kansas
where they lived many years; came
to Oregon in 1889. Besides the
widow, deceased leaves but one
child, J. A. Bowen, formerly con
nected with The Arqus. The sur

in the past four months. On Hun
day, the 12th of August, Ed., the
youngest son, was buried in this
city, he having drowned while in
the fishing business near Ilwaco.
Had the boy lived he would have
been twenty-one years of age on the
day of his father's burial. Sunday,

The Masons took charge of the
burial ceremonies, the sermon hav
ing been preached at the Christian
