"Lego's" Views on the Silver Ques
tion Criticised.
To the EniTiut: As your colunm art
always open to thoso who 1ihm any
thing in say (or think they have). 1 beg
Bpace for a few lines.
Your correspondent Lego in an article
ou the above subiect in the Plain-
dealer of the 7th iust says: "I bold
the view that eventually we will adopt
free colnago as tho only solution of tho
silver question ; and also hold that its
solution in that way will cause a restora
tion of our former ptoperity, etc."
Now, holding so strongly us he does to
this view, ho should havii given a reason
for tho faith that is in him in order that
we may know how free coinage is to
bring about this result. Does he boid to
the view that by free coinage the covern
mentcan hold at par w ith gold all of the
silver in all of Ihecountries of Hie world?
For unless it can do this the freo coinage
of silver would Le a calamity, the like of
which this country has never known,
and God grant that it never may.
Gold will be bought and sold at a
rplpous premium with not a dollar of it
in general circulation. Then the agri
otiltii'ist, the mechanic and the laborer
w ho, according lo "Lego," are demand
ing free coinage of njlver, will reap the
beniflts of silver with a vengeance.
Lel.us ' pause for a moment that wo
rnay'realize'just'wbat this means.
It means that silver will be the only
metal money in circulation. It means
that these samo mechanics, agriculturists
and laborers must pay the p'cmium on
gold in every transaction. It menus
that thu speculator will he iuapiriion
to reap a harvest that with open the eyes
cf Wall street with astonishment. And
lastly: It means poverty and ruin for
every man and woman in the country
who earn their living by the lat-orof
their hande.
This is just us ineritahle as that twice
two is four, ur.d the man who le!iveJ that
the demonetization if silver bv the
United States alone is the cause of (he
present Lard tiroes is as far from the true
solhlion as the north pole frmn the south.
If all of the great powers of the world
will undertake this in concert it may be
!ossit)lo to hold the two metals at par
(which I do not believe by the way,) but
for any one of them to undertake it
alone is simply th invite financial ruin
It is something of a puza'e why those
who think that the United State; can
double the purchasing power of silver
have never thought of doubling the
power of gold, and I bhould like for
some of them to explain why the one is
not just as feasible as the other. AH we
have to do is to say that one dollar shall
purchase as much as two dollars do now
and presto! the thing is done, and we can
drop the question of silver altogether.
The defeat of Mr. ltolph is cited by
your correspondent as voicing the people
of Oregon on 'he money question, when
in fact it was simply in keeping with the
antics of the late lamented legislature.
No one who followed the balloting of
that remarkable assemblage could rea
sonably 'suppose for a moment that a
free silver man could have stood a shadow
of a chance for election. The fact is Mr.
Dolph is in up sense a politican. On the
contrary he is a man who would never
sacrafice his self respect for the highest
office in the laud, which I should hesi
tate to say of' some of those legislators
who, elected bv republican votes con
tributed :." his defeat.
In conclusion I will tay I hat I fully
concur in the opinion of Lrgo that the
American ieopIe know pretty well what
thev will dowith this qneution. hut I
have to much faith in their intelligence
to believe for a moment that they will
ever adopt a policy so rninou an the free
toioage of silver. And I further believe
Lego to tho contrary notwithstanding,
that tho party in the next presidential
election that makes this tho leadiug issue
in its platform will be, as it deserves,
hopelessly snowed under. X

ABSOLUTELY PURE
St. Patrick's Day.
The 17th of March baa alwajs been re
garded as the anniversary of the birth of
St. Patrick, and on that day the "green"
has been displayed all over the land.
Yet the date of his birthday is a much
disputed question. A witty Irish poet
gives an account of the jnatter, and sums
it up as follows:
On the 8th of March it was. some people
say,
That St. Patrick, al midnight, first
saw the day,
While others declared 'twas the Oth he
was born,
And 'twas all a mistake between mid
night and morn;
For mistakes will o cur iu a hurry and
shock ;

Sentiments of the Pope.
Albanv, N. Y , March II. In a letter
written to a state official by General
Georo S. Batchellor, formerly minister
to Portugal, are details of a note worthy
interview with the pope. The pope ex
pressed regret that certain newspapers
and public men of America objected to
his sending a delpgulo to Washington, or
sendinc out an encyclical, as tending to
meddle with the affairs of a foriegu gov
ernment. "This is an error," raid the iwpe. "I
do not seek lo meddle with governments
except to admonish my people to obey
the civil law and conform to the author
ity of the land in whi h they well. 1
sent a legate to America in order that I
might be informed as to the character of
American institutions und the peculiar
ities of the national Hnd state govern
inente, and above all, to reconcile any
conflict, if there should be any, between
the government of Ihe land."
General Batchellor writes: "His holt
nrst) had no criticism to make on our
school system. He said: I aui informed
that the liberal party controlling the state
of New York chose ono of our priests as
a recent of the miivorsity, and I am told
two senators of that great state represent
two creeds, one Protestant and one Cath
olic. How, then, can I complain cf the
institutions of America? The more I
etiidv them the moro thev iileaso mo. I
have admonished hII my people in Amor

IS HAWAII A REPUBLIC?
The World's Fair Tests
showed no baking powder
so pure or so great In leav
ening power as the Royal.
A "Mares Nest" Discovered on the
Islands.
Ed. Plaini)E.er: May 1 say a few
words in regard to the present Hawaiian-
government, erroneously styled a repub
lic by manv well meaning but ill in
formed persons.?
Webster defines a republic as : A state
in which the sovereign power is exercised
by representatives elected by the ieople.
Is that the case on the Hawaiian
Islands? Certainly not.. -.Mist look at
the constitution adopted by those cun
ning pirates.
I. The president is elected by the
senate, and appoints every official of im
portance. II. The senate consists of 15 mem
bers. Only persons having a clear in
come of $1800 are elegible as senators,
and only persons having an income of
I $900 are qualified to vote for senators..
By this simple provisiou all persons bar
ing an income of less than $900 are en
tirely disfranchised as far as the presi
dency and senate is concerned.- Fine
young republic!

IV. Agricultural and personal ser

the s'avedrivcr's cunningly disguis d
whip? And what would you think of
the person or party that would advocate
such constitutional amendments for the
state of Oregon? Wonld such amend
ments, if enacted, not disfranchise nine
tenths of the voters of our state? Why
then pr.ite about that young republic,
when it is nothing hut a cunningly de
vised scheme of bold bnt conscienceless
scoundrels to enrich thetnsrlves by plun
dering the inoffensive natives under the
guise of a republican form of govern

heart, can defend such a monxtrous

The Holy Ghost.
Rev. T. N. Wiisori preached a very
lucid discourse Sunday morning from the
text; Have ye received the Holy Ghost
since ye believed?" Acts: xix-2. The
speaker discribed the Uolv Ghost as a
subtle power that cannot be demon
strated or described by reason, logic or
language on the intellectual plan. This
he illustrated by calling the attention of
his hearers to onr every day experience
in our cntcrcourse with "men. Thus, we
always feel upon meeting and conversing
with strangers, a repulsive or attractive
influence, we can neither understand or.
describe, except in the foimer case we
I eel a relief when we separate from them,
and in tho latter we feel a pleasure in
their presence.
So iikewise the Holv Ghost sheds a
halo of delight in the tnin 1 of tba be
liever. Its presence awakens a beatific
sensation in his soul which the world
can neither give nor ttie away. Its
presence must !m experienced to be
known. The possessor is fillod with in
effable joy. By it he learns that ha is
born again is a child of God. htir aud
joint heir with Christ. Mr. Wilson is an
earnest and forcible speaker and com
mands the attention of hi- hearers.

Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder
World's Fair Hlahtst Medal and Diploma.
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder
World's Fair Highest Award.
World's Fair
HIGHEST MEDAL
awarded to
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder
The highest award was given on every claim, comprising
superiority in leavening power, keeping properties, purity and
excellence. This verdict has been given by the best jury
ever assembled for such a purpose, backed by the recommend
ation of the Chief Chemist of the United States Department
of Agriculture, Washington, D. C, who made an elabor
ate examination and test of all the baking powders. This
is pre-eminently the highest authority on such, matters in
America.
This verdict conclusively settles the questionand
proves that Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is
superior in every way to any other brand.
NotE. The Chief Chemist rejected the Alum baking powders, stating
to the World's Fair jury that he considered them unwholesome.
