A POLITICAL BULL.
There is a peculiar self-contradiction
in the Chicago platform.
Two of its chief planks are as op
posed to each other as political
economy propositions can very
well be. Were it not for the fact
that the people would have to pay
dearly for the entertainment, it
would be worth while to elect
Bryan, and watch his contortions
in trying to reconcile the oppos
ing demands of his platform.
By implication the platform
professes to favor the maintaining
of our gold and silver at a parity,
and "demands the free and un
limited coinage of silver at the
ratio of 16 to 1." It is perhaps
possible for the government to
maintain the -parity of the two
dollars awhile longer, even with
free and unlimited coiuage. It
bS a. very, expensive process,
but it can be done,
In the very next paragraph the
platform "opposes the policy and
practice of surrendering to the
holders of the obligations of the
United States the option reserved
by law to the government of re
deeming such obligations in eith
er silver coin or gold coin," and
"opposes the issuing of interest
bearing bonds in times of peace. ' '
It should be perfectly plain to
every thinking man that the on
ly wiy the government can main
tain a dollar worth in bullion only
53 cents, on an equality with a
dollar worth a dollar in bullion,
is to "give the holders of the ob
ligations oi the United States the
option of redeeming such obliga
tions in either silver coin or gold
coin." The very moment the
government discriminates infavor
of itself by forcing the deprecia
ted coin upon its creditors, the
"fiat" in the silver dollar looses
its virtue, and silver money will
circulate at its bullion value.
The bonds that especially
invoked the "anti-bond" plank,
were sold, not to raise money,
but to secure gold. They were
issued not "to maintain the policy
of gold monoinetalism," but to
maintain the parity of silver.
Those bonds must be charged
against the silver dollar, not
against gold. What manner
of statesmen are these that declare
they are in favor of maintaining
the silver dollar at its present cir
culating value and also declare
against the only methods by
which this can be accomplished ?
The defenders of the Bryan
platform, fall back upon the the
ory that free and unlimited coin
age of silver will create a large
demand, and thus raise the bul
lion price to the present coin val
ue. This can hardly be called a
new device. In 1878 silver was
-worth about 6 cents less as bul
lion than as coin. To remedy
this the Bland bill was introduc
ed and passed over president
Hayes' veto, resulting in the
coinage of nearly $430,000,000
full legal tender dollars in 18
years, a coinage of silver unpre
cedented in the world's history.
If coinage creates demand,, and
demand raises values, this im
mense use of silver ought cer
tainly to have increased the bul
lion the desired 6 cents. But the
theory failed to work in practice.
Silver continued to fall " until to
day a silver dollar is intrinsically
-worth but a little over 50 cents.
A plan that failed to bridge a gap
of 6 cents cannot be recommend
ed to close one of 50 cents. -
The Bland dollar has entailed
misfortune enough" upon the
American people. We cannot
afford the immense loss and con
fusion that would arise from the
populistic program, even for the I
amusement 01 watching a med
iocre politician like Bryan, hand
Kng the bull of the Chicago platr
form. . ,
The Northrup bolters should
understand that they have no bet
ter standing in the real republi
can party, than have the Teller
bolters. To elect a populist, was
flie real object of both bolts.
author of "The True
Money System For the United
States," believes in the demoni
tization of gold. His idea is to
have a paper currency only, ex
cept the use of silver for fraction
al currency based on bullion de
posited in government vaults.
Whatever of merit or error there
may be in his plan, his discussion
of it reveals a clear comprehen-
siou of present conditions. Con
cerning free coinage of silver he
says:
"Free coinage of silver -at 16
to 1 would drive out of this coun
try one-third of our money and
cause "Contraction by that much.
The $500,000,000 of demand
notes would be used, as in 1893
aud since, as an endless chain, to
make the United States govern
ment stand sponsor for payment
in gold of all the corporate and
individual debts in the country
when liquidated. All the gold
we have, say, $600,000,000,
would not pay $5,000,000,000 of
debts. The crash would come.
Then it would require two dollars
of our money to pay one dollar
of our gold debt, and most of the
debts held abroad are of that kind.
Europe would own by foreclosure
nearly all our railroads; the banks
would fail; commercial industries
of all kinds would tumble; the
farmer, the mechanic, the wage
earner, the frugal poor, would not
escape. The millions of poor
people who have their $1,700,
000,000 in savings banks would
have to accept 50-cent dollars;
the billions of insurance, kept
alive and earned by payment of
premiums in gold dollars, many
times in deprivation, would be
paid in 50-cent dollars; soldiers'
pensions would be paid in 50-cent
hilars. The laborer who is now
getting one doll&f a day would
not get two; the farmer would
not get two present prices for his
corn, wheat, cotton, and other
products. The individuals and
corporations having gold are the
only ones who would get nearly
two dollars for one. Language
cannot describe the extent of the
disaster and the destruction of
'values."
The republican party has al
ways favored and advocated main
taining in circulation at all times
all the gold and .all the silver
which it is possible to maintain
and keep all classes of coins on
an equal value, so that all kinds
of money will circulate side by
side in the various channels of
trarle. What else ran anv rea-
sonable man want? The populist '
orators in the late
r1einrrrah"r
; national convention acknowl-
I edged, during their great enthu
siasm anrl Minrl "freal that their
plan of free coinage of silver atfPerieace of a11 aes before us-
the ratio of 16 to i would result
in forcing gold out of circulation,
leaving silver - alone to float as
money. William J. .Bryan, tne
uuiiiiucc ui we muvcunuu :
president, in one of his speeches, !
convention for
acknowledged that that was the
effect and purpose of the plan,
but said it was better than on the
present basis. These people at
the same time, and almost in the i
j same breath, declare that we have
now too little money, yet they
advocate a plan that they admit i
will drive $6oo, 000,000 of money
or $10 per capita, immediately
out of circulation. It seems that
their plan will "benefit only the
mine owner and the . speculator
in silver bullion. .
Senator McBride returned
last week from Washington and
will remain in the state until the
next session of congress. He is
in much better health than when
he left the state last fall, although
greatly fatigued, owing to the in
tense' heat. Mr. McBride has
done some very effective work in
congress for the people of Oregon
and haS attained considerable
prominence in his short senato
rial career. He praises the work
of the rest of Oregon's delega
tion and especially that of Repre
sentative Herman and Senator
; Mitchell. Concerning- the latter
he says : ' 'Whatever I have been
able to do in obtaining appropri
ations for river aud harbor im
provements has been due to my
position on the commerce com
mittee, which, it is only fair and
just for me to say, I owe wholly
to Senator Mitchell's influence
as chairman of the committee on
reorganization of the senate."
Those people who advise the
retiring- of Mr. Bourne from the ;
secretaryship of the state republi
can committee because he has a
reputation as a silver man, might j
exnerience some trouble in ex-!
plaining their presidential prefer-j

Austin Craig, who edits the
Washington Qounty Hatchet,
and -who has been one of the
most aggressive advocates of free
silver, will ttot bolt the party,
but is vigorously urging the sup
port of the republican ticket. In
the last issue he says among other
things:
ltTn nil Vmf nrli nmnf tr, tllA
silver republican the: present plat-
form is one worthy of the party's
glorious past. Clearly and strong
ly the principles of the party are
stated, evading no public question
aud leaving nothing ambiguous
or equivocal. Its dominant note
is a loral Americanism which
overlooks no right and disregards
no duty of the great republic. It
knows no section and favors no
class, but aims at the prosperity
of the whole country and the
happiness of the whole people.
' 'To the silver republican there
are no allurements outside the
party. Far better to remain with
the party from whom one differs
only in one point than to go to
one with whom there is no point
in common. A money system
independent of Wall Street alone
is as impotent to secure the pros
perity of this country as a wall
of sand to restrain the waves of
.1 1 j,
rne sea, unless ic is sustained ay
a protective tariff and a restric
tion of immigration .that makes
the workingman independent also
of foreign pauper competition at
home and abroad.
' "And so it is that with regret
that silver is not in the platform,
but with confidence that to' the
wisdom and honor of the republi
can party the prosperity and wel
fare of our country and every
citizen and interest in it can safe
ly be entrusted, tUe Hatchet
pledges support to William Mc
Kinley, of Ohio, a patriot in
childhood, a hero in youth, a tried
and true public servant in "man
hood, the embody ment of all the
virtues of the noblest type of
American citizanship, upon the
difficult questions of national tax
ation and revenue easily the mas
ter of all living men." '
The republican platform adop
ted at St. Louis sounds the key
note to the only possible method
which can be accomplished to
promote bi-metalism with the
coinage of gold and silver on an
equal footing, both with equal
legal tender privileges, and that
is by an international agreement
with the leading commercial na
tions of the world. To calculate
that any one nation can perform
mat unaertaKing aione ana main
tain tlie parity ot tne coins oi
the two metals, is to contradict
the laws of nature and the ex-
From Our Exchanges.
The populists have not strength
ed their ticket by the nomination
or Mr fcjeweil. He is even more
obscure in. national politics than is
Mr. Bryan. He is very rich. He
is ambitious, disgruntled, does not
represent his party in his own
state,.and cannot bring an electo
ral vote to the ticket and proba-
bly not a dozen unbought votes to
the polls. . He will repeil a good
many workingmen who might have
been seduced by Bryan's plausible
talk, because of his unfortunate
reputation as ah employer. A
wealthy shipowner whose ships are
commonly known as 'floating
hells" is not likely to be a popular
candidate among those to whom
the populist movement must ap
peal. New York Times.
. Silver republicans, who hold that
the tariff question is paramount to
all others, get some consolation
out of the fact that the republican
party was compelled to recognize
free coinage as a just economic
principle. These men - should all
support' the man whose name is
the synonym of protection, Major
William McKinley, a man who will
welcome the day when the money
question can be settled without
dange or damage to anyone, and
over which there can be no con
troversy. Personally, the Gazette
relinquishes none of its eld . opin
ions on finance, but it holds as it
ever has that there is a paramount
issue, and this issue should hold
republicans together till the good
work is accomplished. Because
one does not like one plank out ol
fifteen or twenty is no reason that
it should be exchanged for one that
has nineteen-objeclit nable fea
tures for one good one. Stay with
the ship, boys. Heppner Gazette.
It must have been an astonish

The truth is that the issue is not
more important than many which
have disturbed the country before.
The slavery question, green buck
ism, know nothingism, the turilF
were all mattery of equal impor
tance with that of the free coinage
of silver. " It has assumed large
proportions for the moment be
cause a great party, driven from
every point it lias ever maintained,
lias in desperation robbed the pop
ulisls of the, only likely stepping
stone to office it ' ound lying around.
The excitement at Chicago has
served to make it seem to be a real
issue; but as the delegates disperse
the populists will begin to rally,
and will rush to the rescue of their
banner fiom the hands of brigands.

You talk about "flopping."
Every democratic paper in tin's
?tate, when Cleveland wa? up for
office the last time, claimed that
the only issue was the tariff, and
that free coinage had nothing to
do with our financial conditions.
Now that the villianous and vi
cious Wilson bill has nearly ruined
the country, this same press is
ready to cry "chestnuts," when
protection is mentioned, and cry
"Hop" to every man in the repub
lican party who has ever advoca
ted, within its ranks, free coinage.
If protection was an issue lour
years ago, it is one now, audit will
be made one in this campaign
however much the democrats re
fuse to take their own medicine.
The appeal for protection will be
made, most forcibly, to the reason
and consistency and decency that
there "is yi the American mind,
and it will create a very substan-
tial leelinc in the, people's voting.

why they start at every slight but
sudden sound; why they do not sleep
naturally; why they have frequent

The explanation is simple. It is found in
.. that impure blood which is contin
ually feeding the nerves upon refuse
instead of the elements of strength and
vigor. In such condition opiate and

do not cure. Hood's Sarsaparilla feeds
