A d-iutv constable, of that plmv, came up after lilm and ttMik Ii tin back for trial. The latest charge tigliist Mr. ltryaii is that he Is a poor man tliHt his taxes are very small. When one con sider that llrvau was In c mil-res fur two terms, and thai he came out a poorer um u than wheu he went In, it ni'Kht to be looked upon as the highest certificate of character. The follow ing dispatch, signed by the chairmen of three ditlereut con ventions of the state fit Was'ilngton, was sent to JW Itryan: "Three state conventions, democratic, populist and fiee-sllver republicans, meeting in state conventions In Kllensburi;, send congratulations, and promise you the electoral vote fit the state."

They have given to the larmers so far 4li,0U0 bas for use In delivering grain. At this date they have received lo.tsw bushels of the present crop. I he qnal ily Is good but the size of the grains is smaller than usual. The Salem Journal gets sarcastic a follows: "It G Dunn 4 Co, whose business it Is to pry into everybody's business, and let no one know about their own, asks the Journal for a state ment us usual. Here it is: We have no use for you, as you probably have tin uso for us. If we reeded your as sistance you would be against us, and we assume that you w 111 not volu iteer us any help otherwise.

IIEKK'S PIKkTiTlI,. Tlio Orcgoninn of yostorJay con tain this and more like it: "It is paid that Ilrynn's notifi cation speech wns cuitod anil re vised by campaign manager till the author hardly knew it, and had to learn it over ngnin, liko a schoolboy declamation. Tho story iH that tho manuscript was Bent on h'ast a week ago; that Jones edited it lirst, then that Gorman wont over it with a bluo pencil, and that finally it nf mutto senator Hill for such alterations and climina liona ns wus suggested by his shrewd jodgmcnt as a politician. Perhaps this schooling by demo cratic campaign managers is tho pricn Rryan pays for Gorman's participation in tho campaign and Hill's passive non-intervention." This shows the puro unadulter ated gall of Harvey Scott. He knows that tho production of this magnificent speech is tho work of that puro and patriotic friend of the people, William J Hryan, but he must try and discredit it nsheis unahlo to answer aeinglo principle enunciated. Tho voters of Oregon will not allow tho Oregonian, tho organ of tho bankers and monopo lists, to control their sufl'rago in November. Tlio common people proposes to elect a man who will protect their interests. All the money controlled by Mark Hanna will not cliango tho result. Win J Hryan in speaking of the (old democrats to -10,000 peoplo in New York stato, truly stated: "Some of our financiers bayo boas ted that they were in fuvor of gold, but you shall teach them they must enrry their ideas fur enough to be lieve not in gold, but in tho golden rule.whicli treats men aliko. (Great applause). I commission you all as soldiers to fight, and as mission aries to preach wherever you go from now until then. Our opponents in tho democratic party bavo been threatening to organizo a gold standard democratic party, (hisses) but we oro afraid you will search the pages of history in vain to find a battle ever won by an army of generals. They have not a private in their whoh ranks. Laughter and cheers. "Now, my friends, I want you to set to those opponents an example which they have not set to you. They have said tint they represent tho respectuble ele ments of society. Teach them that respectability cannot be manifested by slandering every man who diff ers from them in opinion." Ap plause, HonW V Keady, ex-speaker of the Oregon legislature, and a re publican, was on the train from l'ortland the other day, and ho is quoted by a reliable gentleman as saying that if the free silver senti ment in Oregon is not checked the late will give Hryan electors 20, 000 majority. The Oregon Press Association meets in Astoria next Thursday. It is to tin-interest of every pub li her to attend tli -e iii 'elitiu". TWO IXl'OJII'ATlBl.K TI1E0KIKS. X. Y. Journal: Tho Journal would suggest to the Kepubliean National Committee, that unless it ii planning to hopelessly befog tho voters it would better systematize its series of sound money tracts. The voter gets a circular ono day as serting that to give silver tho right of freocoinago at 1G to 1 is to enor mously enrich tho "silver barons," who will take 53 cents worth of sil ver to the mint and get a dollar for it. The next day's political tract warns the farmer and the wage-worker to beware of the freely coined silver dollar, because it would bo worth no more than its bullion value, or 53 cents. Clearly, tho gold advocates must either abandon their theory of a dollar of depreciated value or elso moderate their indignation at tho thought of tho fabulous profits of tho silver mino owners. The choice will bo n hard one for them, for with tho ono assertion they awaken the apprehension cf their dupes, with the other they arouso their envious indignation. That the silver miner will prof it by tho free coinngo of silver is unquestionable. He will profit as the gold miner now profits by the free coinage of gold. Tho prico of one dollar for 371 i grains of pure silver bears as little relation to its cost of production ns tho present price of ono dollar for every 23.22 grains of pure gold does to cost of producing gold. Hut the very fact that the miners will profit in a de gree varying with the richness and accessibility of their mines dis proves the assertion that tho silver dollars they get for tboir silver bullion will bo depreciated dol lars."
