I Kugene City Guard. BA i'UHDAY MAY :8 H R KINCAIU'A KKCOHII. The Cor vail is iazcite and tho Kugen.' Register are howling about Secret iry of Stalt: Kiocaid employ -iiiK lawyers to beat off the Oregon Kail way commission from the pub lie treasury. They Maybe that "is attempting to unnul tin-plain law." The people wish wc had a few more state officials willing to annul the ''plain law "enacted by TTGcer and other republic i!.- in the matter of the Oregon Railway commission and other unclean commissions. Those papers nay he has cot the state thousands of dollars for attorney fees. Ask your re publican ca didate for Circuit Judge. He was one of Kincaid's attorneys again-t republican bood lers. He will tell you that the at torneys never charged even halfu thousand dollars. Your republican attorney general I tot id In with the Railway commission and made necessary the employment of those attorneys you are kicking ahout, No. TheBe republican editor- make a mistake in attacking Kin- caid. They sin' ply call the peo pie's attention to his many lights against the republican boodle com missions and attempted raids on the Slate Treasury. the Qunrjoa run mi votrr Diverse Financial Policies of tfcpuull can and Union Parlies. it is no wonder that the money loaners, the bmkers, anil tlie holders of the worlds obligations stand for the gold standard. Those classtg practically control the money sup ply and would he greatly enrichul by the final enthronement of gold as the only inonev of redemption Money is a commodity as much as wheat or any other product of labor and the soil. The metalli money of the world is divided about equilly between silver and gold. One half that money has, in ellect been cheapened and discredited by legislation enae'ed through tho in lluence of the men who control the credits, tho money loaners und bankers. Tho other half of the money has appreciated in value by such artificial regulations just tho same as hops, cotton, wool, oats , wheat, etc etc, appreciate in yaluo whenever there is a scarcity or n contraction of the supply. A bountiful wheat crop insures clnap bread within the reach of all. A poor crop high prices for bread. A halfBupplyof money makes that money more valuable, and requiios more of the products of labor and the soil to purcha-e tho same, thus cheapening all else in comparison with gold. The Republican party of Oregon plainly and unequivocally places itself on the gold standard. The Union party lor gold and silver, the money of tho constitution. It we elect Republican congressmen. and a legislature of that faith to elect a senator, those men will vote in congress to further discred it silver, retire the greenbacks with interest bearing gold bonds, and to fix the country more firmly on the gold standard. That is tho record of tho Republican party and its standard bearers and representa tives do not seek o evadf the issue. The Union party stands for gold, silver, and paper money without discrimination. Ii representatives in congress, Silver Republicans, Populists, and Democrats stand shoulder to shoulder in resisting machinations ol the gold standard party. The people of Oregon nre soon to say If two congressmen and a senator shall represent them or the gold standard beneficiaries. e cannot believe the verdict at the po Is on the 7th day of June will be in favor of ths gold stand ard financial contraction policy.

Republican I'latiorm, 1800. An examination of the report of the State Hoard of Equalization for six years beginning in Jt92 shows that the total value of all real and personal property within the State of Oregon as returned by tbe Assessors from the several counties, afterward being equalized by the State Board of Equalization, was is follows: 1892, value $228,398,677, under Cleveland gold standard 1893, value, $177,249,086, under Cleveland gold standard. 1894 value, $159,540,406. under Cleveland gold standard 1895, value, $153 067,177, under Cleveland gold standard. 1896, value, $151,864,670, under Cleveland gold standard. 1897, value. $143,539,696. under McKinley gold standard. 1H3H, value 11111 under Present gold standard." The above platform and statistics show two things. First, the republican pirty has completely abandoned the money of the constitution and the principles advocated by them for many years and has boldly adopted the Manna single gold standard. Second that the taxable property of Oregon has decreased nearly one half in value since 1H'J2 under the Cleveland and McKinley gold standard or "present gold standard'' as the Republicans are pleased to call it. TOT Cow mi Lntz, of io, to SihmIi In " Eugene KuK STATIC PKI.VtHt. Ohsfl A Fitch ol Clackamas county is up for state printer and will likely be elected. Fditor Fitch is a practical printer of long ex perience, he is a mm of excelleut ability, and 1ms made his record us a reformer. He has been accustom ed all his life to live by the "sweat of his brow", and when he gets in olli , ho will work to simplify the dulii s, to lessen the expense ami to make the offlos a credit to tho state. and an instrument for tho peoples good and not personal gain. Mr Fitch should bo supported and elocled for tho good of the tax payers of the state. Something has Imen said about Admiral Dewey's politics. His son.lieorgo Dewey, who lives in New lork, says: "I have often heard my father say that he never VOMd In his life; that an army or navy olhcer should not dabble in politics, but serve his country, no matter who is in power. If niv father has any politics, which I do not believe, I do not know it." Wednesday June 1st. Special to the Guard.
