LOOKING BACKWARD.
The jtfatform of the people's par
ty will not "hold water." The pur
chase of the railroads by the gov
ernment would cost $10,000,000,
000. We have been nearly twenty-eight
years trying to pay off a
war debt that was originally about
a quarter of this sum, and we have
only paid off a little more than
half of it. 01 course, we will nev
er consent to burden the people
with any such enormous debt as
that contemplated by the proposi
tion for government purchase of
the railroads. The government
-cannot in honor and honesty con-v-:
fiscate the railroads, and the peo
ple cannot afford to buy and oper
ate them. The government oper
ation of railroads would so increase
the number of government officials,
high and low, and employes, that
it would be impossiblo to dislodge
a corrupt administration save by
revolution.
The sub-treasury bill was made
the subject ot unanimously adverse
report in this congress. It is in
violation of the constitution; it is
class legislation; it would lend the
money of the whole people on
doubtful collateral to farmers.
People having a particular kind of
property to deposit could get
money at 1 per cent, from the gov
ernment and let it at a higher
rate to other persons. If there
should be a reduction in the value
of the goods after they are stored
below 80 per cent., the govern
ment would lose; if the value in
creased, the government would
get none of the profit.
:' Concerning this scheme Demo
cratic Congressman McMillin said:
"The inauguration of the scheme
would be the speculator's delight.
He could carry $470,000 worth of
wheat with less than $95,000 cash,
and pay " the government only 1
per cent' interest. The great in
crease in the number of officials
would make it almost impossible
to dislodge a corrupt administra
tion. ; No provision is made for
the redemption of the many mil
lions to be issued under the bill
and the banks would have power
to force the destruction of any
part of the government money."
The government of the United
States has not the slightest shadow
of right to lend the money of the
people to any person or. class
persons for the benefit of their
private business; the government
can appropriate public money for
objects that stand for the public
weal; the government can lend
the credit of the nation to aid the
completion of a vast transconti
uental railroad, .like the Union
Pacific, or a work of great national
consequence, like Nicaragua canal
it may subsidize lines of ocean
steamers to the end of increasing
the ereneral trade' of the " nation
nd building up its commercial
marine interests in our great fight
with foreign countries for the
trade of the world, and on the
same broad principle of nationa!
advantage it may help the world's
fair, since this gigantic enterprise
is of vast advantage to the pros
reritv and eeneral welfare of the
whole people, but the United
6tates cannot lend a dollar to any
individual or class of individuals
to help them in the transaction of
Drivate business;' to increase its
gains or limit its fesses; nor can
the United States issue legal ten
ders, which are a forced loan from
the whole people, for " the benefit
of any private . business, qr any
particular class of people.
The people's' party begin wrong
to accomplish anything; they
should begin by upsetting or evis
cerating the --constitution-"of- the
United States rand completely
changing our form of -government
from that of a government of in
dividualism ".wfeich'-governs best
when jt governs leait," to a gov
ernment of patT&alism or 6tate
socialism. l.
Under thf constitutional mon
arehiCsEurope the drift to pa- j
tciBftlssnknd State socialism is
natural, because under absolute
despotism the people had been
accustomed to have the state con
fiscate the individualism of
the citizen, his- liberty, his life,
his property, his freedom of choice
to live and move and enjoy his be
ing, but the United States began
a new departure from despotism;
it stepped forward and rested its
new experiment upon individual
ism instead of paternalism for suc
cess, and because of this stimulus
to the development of self-reliant,
self-governing individualism rather
than the paternalism and state so
cialism of Europe, we have in a
century passed all other people in
the race for prosperity, peace
and happiness.
The people's party legislation
proposes that we shall retrace our
steps; we shall surrender all we
have gained and substitute for the
individualism that has made
America great, the paternalism
that has made Europe's sighing
millions anxious to find under our
banner a freedom and a felicity
that is unknown and unattainable
under their own flag.
In a word the people,s party is
"Looking Backwards" when every
true American looks up and not
down; forward and not back, and
while ready to lend another a
hand believes in self-support, self
development, the survival of the
fittest by individual effort, rather
than in the survival of the unfit
test through the systematic pater
nalism and statu socialism that
seems to be the impending fate of
Europe. Seattle P-I.
What 6hall we do to be saved ?
This is an old question, but one
that the people of the United
States must ask themselves seri
ously. Demagogy is rampant, and
the ignorant and the unfortunate
and are being made to believe that
they are wronged and oppressed,
are being taught that the remedy
they must seek is that of lawless
ness and anarchy, the reign of mob
rule. It is another sin that the
democratic party has laid upon its
soul, that it encourages this spirit
of rebellion against social order in
its eager chase after votes. Some
of the leading democratic journals
have talked honestly about
the labor riots that have occurred,
and have joined with the republi
can press in condemning lawless
ness and scouting as utterly absurd
and inequitable the idea that any
set of men have a right to dictate to
others how they should manage
their business or whom they should
employ, or to prevent by force the
employment of men not belong
ing to their combination. These
papers deserve the more credit
that they place the good of society
higher than mere party advantage
and to that extent break , away
from their party. But there are
prominent leaders in the demo
cratic party and influential papers,
some of them in our own state,
that have turned their backs upon
the duty they well know they owe
to society, and have encouraged
the men who have committed
deeds of lawlessness and assert the
doctrine of the supremacy through
force of organized labor. These
papers and alleged statesmen
saw in the tragedies at Homestead
and Cceur d'Alene, 'and the out
break at Buffalo only a chance to
secure democratic votes by dema
gogic utterances, and were suffici
ently despicable to seize the oppor
tunity and make, the most of . it.
With such statesmen and public
educators matters may well be ex
pected to become worse and worse
until disaster overtakes the nation.
It is important to consider what
we snail do to be saved lrom the
natural result of such teachings,
without having to correct them
with powder and bullets. There
is but one way, and that is for the
belter element of the nation reso-
utely to set its face . against such
anarchistic doctrines and vote next
November against the party that
endeavors to 1 get into power by
catering to the element that sup
ports them. Portland Chronicle.

speaking of the Oregon state agri
cultural college, treat that institu
tion with a sort of contemptuous
sneer, and still dins to the belief
that it is only an agricultural col

"Repeal the McKinley law,"
was the expressed purpose of the
democracy one year ago yet,
with 150 majority in the house,
the party made no attempt to re
peal the act, which they declare is
'the sum of all villainies." It
would have been just as easy to
pass a bill wiping out "the mon
strous iniquity" as one putting
wool on the free list, but none of
the trur-reat democratic leaders
had the hardihood to initiate the
movement. The McKinley law
has come to stay. It may be mod-
ified in some particulars by a re.
publican congress, as time -may;
show the necessity ot the change,
but it will never be repealed by a
democratic congress. Statesman.
Those croakers who were so free
to predict the failure of the'Corval

operations this spring, are begin
ning to awake to the fact.that the
factory is here to stay. The com
pany is operating upon a solid
financial footing and is making
money every day , the factory is
run. The demand for their maim
tactured vehicles is increasing
even beyond the expectations ol
the stockholders. Forty to titty
mechanics have' been given em
ployment during the summer, and
the force will probably be increas
edtoone hundred within another
month. Oorvallis is surely to be
congratulated for having secured
the location of a tactory of such
magnitude here.
