It is the picket quard of the A. I. A that has given the Review its mortal consternation. The army H03 en trenched. In the womb of time there may be a political party with which the Review may form an alliance. If persistency is a virtue the fates may reward it. The lions and tho lambs of unterri- lied domocracy will lie down together behind the Eccrccy of the Australian ballot. At such a time, the mudsills will have tho bosses on the hip. Oar telegraphic dispatches in another column intorms us that the shah of Per sia was assassinated yesterday as he was entering the inner court of the shrino of tYbdnl Azim, south of Teheran. Editok Plai&dealku: Just a word or two. You have said that A. P. Aisra is 'the rrd flag" to tho Review. Hang it on the outward wall. The white flag of peaco will never be unfurled. A. P. A. The Plaixdealeh is almost daily in re- ceir t of news from the rural precincts stating that the republican ticket is growing in strength every day. The people are beginning to understand the animus of the Review's fight. Until certain kickers own two or three political parties they should temper their announcements with discretion. Sneak ing back into the fold is accompanied by mortifying fensations. "Rule or ruin," is an ancient f jrmula that is happily ob solete. W. E. Yatrs the republican candidate for the second judicial district is a lawyer and man whose personal character is above reprcoch. He is well educated, a native Oregonian, and is a self-made man. He should receive the support of the voters of this district regardless of politics. The I'ickler pension bill has passed the home by a vote of 1S7 to 54, the republi cans and populists voting for it, and the democrats, except six, voting against it. This vote shows bow democracy regards the soldiers. True to their antebellum instincts, the party as a party, stands op posed to the defenders of the nation, as all their votes in congress and the leaders and governnment officials show. The Review says there is no repuUi can party in Douglas county. This is an unmitigated falsehood and we will prove it by the first of June, 1S0C. We return tbo compliments cf the Plai.nde.iler by stating that there is no democratic party in Douglas county, a fact its little bantam, tbe Review, tacitly acknowledges by for Baking tbe time honored principles of democracy and devoting its pueril efforts to down an imaginary foe. The republicans of tbe second judicial district have nominated W. . Yates of Coryallis for district uttorney. The nom ination will reflect credit on the paitv Mr. Yates is entitled to this mnch being said of him. He is a man whose per sonal character Is beyond a shndow oi reproach. If this office falls to him when tho plums are ripe in June, the people can rest assured that it will be in the hands of an honorable and upright man Lincon County Leader, 'democratic.) Potatoes have been urea !or luel in New York State. What wonderful luck tbo Empire State has had Binco 1593, when its favorite (?) son became presi dent. Now tho farmers don't have to bother hauling their potatoes to market or to railroads. The extent of the mar kets is contracted by tbo closed factories Rnd low wages, and this saves the farmer much labor, besides having to advance freight money. Think, too, of the ad vantage oi growing one s own luel on one's own larm. What a blow at the coal monopolists and the labor they era ploy! Corn to burn, potalo2S to burn, wheat for hogs. Who wouldn't be r. farmer during Democratic Free Trade times? "Once a democrat, always a democrat" is a senseless, idiotic proposition. Just at this time it involves the conclusion that thoy who have from any catibe voted with the deuiocrate, havo bid adieu to their mental resources, their indepen dence, manhood and patriotism. The frantic local dictators dish out tho hoary old platitudo in hope to fatten the big otry of unfortunates and intensify their hatred for tho A. P. A. With sublimity of assurance, they contend tho sentiment, America for Americans, heretical and hateful, and despised by all who hayo been tainted with democracy. A dainty inoreol of assurance to the unintelligent faithful, but reactionary doctriuofor freo ineu ; for men who united with tho dem ocrats on questions of tariff or economics ; for men who love their own, their native ' land. Realizing tho degeneracy of ''honora ble" politics na illustrated by tho repub lican congressional convention and real izing its probable resentment by friends of Mr. Hermann, tho Reviow hastens to tho front with its condolence, and ex tends an olive branch to the gentleman's friends. With tricks that are vain, we are unfamiliar, but suspicion haunts us that the Review is a willing sacrifice in pointing the remedy of voting the demo cratic ticket, to the outraged friends of Mr. Hermann. The Ilosebars Plaindealer sneaks of "the Douglas county republican pirty." Uapllal Journal. A slight mistake you made brother Ho- fer. Yon should have said : The Rose burs Pl.mndealek speaks for the Doug las county republican party. But we forgive brother Holer. A Dutchman doc3 not always catch on to tbe proper connectives in the English language. Try again. Tho Review has cut loose from all party affiliation and will go it inde pendent hereafter. It has found that piping for democracy don't pan out. It is now for anything "forninst" men and parties. It does feel yery sorry, how ever, tor tno republican party it uas failed to kill with its little etilletto. But now that the republican party has suicided the Review eheds crocodile tcais for its sad and untimely demise. Hon. W. E. Yates, republican nom inee for prosecuting attorney, of this ju dicial district i not only an able lawyer but he is a man of unusual attainments, of unblemished character, Jand is one of the most genial and popular gentlemen in this district. That he will fill the office acceptably to the people, in tbe interesof justice and liht, and to his own credit goes without saying. A bet ter and more deserving gentleman for tbe important and responsible office, could not nave been found in the dis trict, and we hope he will be elected by the largest majority ever given to a candidate for any office in this district. Yaquina Post, Lincoln county, May 2, lS9d. The Review says : "As to the Re view's discussion of campaign issues that is no candidate's business," that "it is not a personal or party organ," and that it chooces to "discuss questions of public interest, and further than that it is not interested in political campaigns." Great Scott! What disinterestedness! No peisonal interest, no party interest, no nothing. It says it "has not re ceivsd a cent of subsidy from any candi date or from any party, and proposes to receive none." Ah, indeed! Such "will do to tell the marines" but it will not do tell Oregonians, especially to those whose memories of the past are still fresh in their minds. No, no, the Review wonld not take a cent for anything but its vapid abuse of good men who mav differ in opinion with it. We Told You So. In a recent speech by Secretary Carl isle at Chicago, especially addressed to the laboring class, he correctly discribed the condition ttiat ensued alter lite in coming ot tbe present administration when he said: "The people saw the operatuns of industry interrupted, banks failing,' great commerciil houses unable to meet their obligations, credit seriously impaired, mills and factories closed and thousands of laborers thrown out of employment, and a state of panic and business disorders prevailing in every part of the country." This state ment coming from so high authority as Secretary Carlisle will be accepted as true, though there is some surprise at the-candor oi the admission. Mr. Carl isle could not have truthfully made this statement three years ago. It is just what republicans expected and what they predicted would follow the policy proposed by our democratic brethren, when they said to the people that if placed in power, they would establish the untried svstem of free trade. It is tho condition which did follow tho enactment of the Wilson bill. This i? a case of "I told you sd," verified by high democratic authority. Still They Come. Tho tido of pauper Italiaus is still pouring in upon us. Why Italy should make a dumping grouud of tho United States just now, for her idle laborers and paupers is not readily understood. It may mean a good deal more than simply ridding her shores ofan undesirable class. It is a well known fact that when the occasion requires it, Tammany bosses manipulate the foreign element in New York city in a manner that battles the most alert. J 11 ?t now there aie 7.S0O more of the subjects of Kiug Humbert on tho ocean bound for our shores. 27,000 havo ar rived sinco tho first of January, 1S9G. Those remaining in the largo cities ni3V make their power felt on election day. Thoso who ecatler into tho country and smaller places will become competitors with whom our labor cannot compete. Thoaverago weekly wages paid a com mon laboror in Italy is f 1.70 or $G.S0 per month. Only recently in tho state of Idaho a contract was lot for constructing a dilcl to cost several thousand dollars. After the contract had been let it was found that tho contractor had arranged to employ transient Italian labor at a inuro pittance, wlnlo hundreds ol our own eitizoiiB were turned away, not only without work but penniless. If there i3 unv benefit in studying problems, hero Is one for our laboring men and women while thoy are out of a job. Protection to American labor and to American in dustries are live issues, the well being of our people and nation depend upon them. POLITICAL POINTERS.

Several band wagons which will be taken to St. Louis ought to be so con structed as to be utilized for ambulances later on. Chicago Dispatch. Judge Northup, of Portland, comes out an independent candidate for congress to the 2d congressional district as a sound money man. Now the Oregonian is happy; but how will it be after election? That's the question. The outlook for Senator Allison was never brighter than it is now. This is not a mere assertion.

There is a great deal of chaff written and said about unpledged delegations. referring to the republican convention at St. Louis, and it is alleged by some of the big California papers, that to pledge a delegation, is almost a crime. For my part I cannot see any grayo wrong in being pledged, if only you are pledged to the right thing. But why such a howl? Let U3 analyze the matter. Who are these people that are rinding so much fault, and are in snch deadly fear lest a pledged delegation should be sent to the convention? Are they the friends of one of the foremost candidates? Or are tuey tne aunerents oi Eome third or fourth rate man, whose only show is to slip into recognition by Eome unex pected turn inaffuirs? lithe delegations represent the people, and the people have a decided preftrence for a man who perhaps stauds head and shoulders above the rest, a man tittad to the time and exigency, why not instruct it to give that man their support while there is a reasonable hope of bis nomination. Tho delegation is not pledged in the strict Eense of the term, nor bound by an iron-clad oath. All that we ask is that the free will of the people shall fiud full expression, through their dele gates, and no smart trick or unholy com bination, may haye any chance to foist upon the party, and perchance the presidency, such men as Quay or Piatt, whoso only qualifications for high office, are their supreme cheek and well rilled sacks, l am glad to know Uregon was not frightened by their unpledged bng bear, but that she honored herself, by appointing men who are for McKinley, protection and victory!

Now in a certain city named Rose burg, located in the hill country in the southern portion of the province called Oregon, in- tbe realm of Grover the Great, there dwelt a man called Charlie, whose surname was Fisher. Now Charlie was a Hushite, inasmuch as he thought all of the people ought to .hush to listen to him. Charlie the Hushite was wise in his own conceit, and vainly thought all tbe people dupes and fools, and that wisdom would die with him. But verilv ho knew but little. And it came to pass in the fourth-year of the reign of Grover the Mighty, that an electioa was to be held in the coun try round about. Now it so happened that Charlie the Hushite thought he was a writer of no mean degree a scribe of the tribe of democracy. So Charlie the Hushite, through the columns of his paper, opened his month and spake, saying: Ye are my witnesses how in times past I have misrepresented everything; how I haye lied, and abused and villified tnaay respectable people, and have toadied to wealth and position, and how I have cringed and groveled in the very dust at the feet of the party bosses. Now hearken onto my words, for be hold : Lo ! I have reformed, and am the leader of the reforms, and my ways are now the ways of the just. And Charlie tbe Hushite opened his month once more and spake nnto the people, saying: Ye know that in the times past our community was peaceful and loving-. Ye know that neighbor Ioyed hi3 neighbor and sometimes his neighbor's wife. Ye know how loving and tender the church societies were toward each other. Ye know that peace, joy and happiness reigned supreme in our midsf. "When Io! a secret political organization crept in among our people, called the A. P. A's. An organization as dark and damnable as hell from whence it ema nated. And Charlie the Hushite spake more words unto the psople and said: Go to, now weep and howl, for the peace of our once happy community has departed. It has been driven away by the d d A. P. A's. Don't you see that life long iriends have become en emies? And Charlie the Hushite cried aloud and said on to the people : Verily calam ity 3nd disaster have overtaken us, for pugalistic entertainments, are given by the d d A. P. A's, and because of them incendiarism is rampant and our fair city has been handed over to corrupt political tricksters by the A. P., A's. and peace and good order are no more. And Charlie the Hushite continued, and spake many more words unto tho people, even unto the going down of the sun. For many days did he speak onto the people, saying: And now, uh! my dear people! what more shall I say? Only, beware! be ware! ! for although the d d A. P. A's. are not worth a whoop, or a good healthy cuss, yet devastation follows in their wake and they have plunged our country into chaos. Because of them tbe rain continues to fall in a beastly manner and the snn has hidden his lace for many days. Aud it came to pass that when the Hushite had uttered these words that a great stillness fell on the people for a time. Then there was a disturbance. The eietcents got a hot-box. Tbo Iront half of the stove fell upon tho car pet The clock stopped in the church tower. The bantam rooster crept under the barn with drooping tail, and tho elders of the tribe of demociacy bowed their faces to the earth and shouted aloud: Amen, amen! But under their breath they said : Be hold what an imbecile the Hushite has become. And thus Charlie the Hnshite contin ued to rave and tear his ,hair. and his fac friends stood aghast; but decent, re spectable people smiled at each other and wondered how the Hushite wonld ever get rid oi the deviKwhich possessed him, for, verily, their name is legion. S. F. Floed, late of the customs house at Portland and who was given ihs al ternative to resign on account of his health or be otherwise disposed of, and now of the Review staff, was sent out to Myrtle Creek last Saturday to pipe for do mocracy. In the midst of one of his passionate platitudinous perorations ho was greeted with a left-handed applause, "Oh, rats!" that completely tcok tne wind out of his sails aud ho soon sub sided and began to contemplate the in gratitude of man for his brother man.
