SEN. MITCHELL'S PLAIN TALK.
Senator Mitchell in a speech be
fore a Portland audience last week
gives the people's party a little
sound advice, and scores the dem
ocrats for their political trickery.
Read what he says on the subject .
"I am surprised to find, oar demo
cratic friends in such a disorgan
ized condition. To quote the lan
guage f a well known Oregon
gentleman. they dont seem to
know what thev are : at? One of
them told me a story to illustrate
their attitude. He said they re
mind him of a man who tied him
self to the tail of a bull and was ruu
awav with bv the animal. As he
was bounding from the high
nlaces on the bull's tail a friend
asked him where he was going
'I don't know.' was his answer:
ask the bull.' Our democratic
friends in this state are in the po
sition of that man. It has come
to such a pass with their party
that it has no ninciDles upon
which it can stand before the peo
ple. On the eve of election it
hauls down its own flag and hoists
that of the nartv that it has abus
ed time and again, and it aks the
honest democrats of Oregon to
cast one-fourth of their influence
to elect a representative of the or
ganization they nave so empnat
ically denounced. I will call the

audience to what Weaver the

It makes a close contest possible,
so far as Harrison is concerned.
Without fusion, -the majority
would probably be large one way
or the other. With a large num
ber of votes for Weaver in the
west, even the preponderance of
New York would not insure Har
rison a large majority. He may
carry every state considered surely
republican and New York besides,
and -still lose enough scattering
electoral votes to Weaver to make
his majority perilously small.
"These considerations make it

For a good many years General
Weaver has followed politics for a
vocation. He knows that his pe
culiar doctrines can never be
looked upon with favor by repub
licans, but they are acceptable to
a number of democrats in the
north, and especially in Iowa, and
his object is to keep in the good
graces of these at all hazards, as,
if nothing bigger offers through
the election of Cleveland, he may,
with fusion bait, hook a seat in

From force of habit, if for no other
reason, he will continue to make
a business jof politics, and to get
out of it all , he can. Following
this line, it is his policy to condone
the offence of the young Georgia

tracts from the Congressional He
cord, 50th congress, first session,
volume 19, page 6146. They
show that in various places in
Iowa, during the years of 1866-69
General Weaver publicaly referred
to the democratic party as "a rank,
traitorous horde, whose acts com
prise murder, treason, theft, arson,
fraud, perjury, and all other crimes
possible for an organization to
connive, at." On the floor of con
gress General Weaver admitted
that he had made those state
ments about the democracy.
"Now, democrats of Oregon,"
resumed the senator, "this little
committee here in town asks you
to vote for this man for president.
Are you going to do it ? The ob
ject of asking you to do this is no
mvsterv. The whole business is
a trick. It is being played all
over the country. The real aim
of the democratic party's endorse
ment of the people s party can
didate is to get enough Weaver
electors seated to throw the elec
tion into the democratic house of
representatives. How does that
strike the republicans who have
entered the third party because
they honestly believe that they
could better their condition by so
doinst? How do thev relish the
idea of being deluded into voting
for Cleveland and no one else ? I
believe that when they see the
real object of this fusion they will
again rally themselves within the
old party that is not afraid to
stand fairly and squarely before
the people and ask for their suffrage."
WE A VER'S NAME OMMITTED.
Several contemporaries are no
ticing the fact that Governor Pen
noyer did not mention the name
of Weaver in his address at Rose-
! bursr. This is verv creditable of
the governor. Weaver's name
should not be mentioned in a re
spectable bodv of men. many of
whom had formerly been demo
crats, whom Weaver once called
thieves, murderers, etc., and evi
dently the governor was of the
same opinion. His antipalny to
Cleveland has blinded him so
much that he has undoubtedly
gone too far with the Lease
Weaver outfit, so far that he man
ifests his disgust for them on the
8tump.v. Mrs. Lease and Weaver
have wrecked what little political
force that they had created, and
Gov. Pennoyer, as well as every
bodv else, can see it. The
governor is sadly in the brine,

Mr. Blaine's parting injunction.
