Officer and Delegates of Local Clnba
Llcclcd.
Hon. l.T. Oeer, of Marion county,
now often spoken of In connection with
the next republican nomination for gov
ernor, came In on Tuesday's local In re
sponse to an invitation from the M Kin
ley club to address the people of Hons
burg from a republican standpoint, the
special occasion being the lime for ibe
election of nfllcers of the ( lob and ibe
selection of delegates to attend the
league convention at l'ortland neat
Tuesday. Mr. Ueer was met at tho do-
pot by a committee 01 prominent repu'i
lican of the city who escorted hl.-n lo
the Hotel MvClallen where apartments
had alroady lieen provided for him. aud
lu thu evening he delivered an address
at the court house. I be attendance was
not large, hut very fair considering that
tho stakes to be paid for, politically
speaking, in the coming campaign are
not yr t up. In Die absence of Judge
Laoghary, president of Ibe club, K. I).
Stratford, presided aud announced th
drat order of business the election of
officers, and the following were elected:
President, K. I. Stratford.
Vice Presidents, J. W. Wright and I.
H. K. bulck.
Secretary, J. It. IMdy.
Treasurer, W. A. Frater.
Delegates to the state leagus conven
tion : (ieo. M. llrown, D. S. K. Hoick.
I.C. Fullerton. J. 1J Kddv. K. L. Mil
ler, A. M, Crawford, Koland Ages, (ieo.
r.at'B, r . rage-lin'in, nimon Caro, O.
K. Godfrey, M. McCoy, H. C. Nlocnm,
F. 1). Hirstford, I. It. Kiddle, W. A. Fra-
ter and John II. Shupe.
I he president then introduced Hon.
T. T. Oeer, who entertained tbe audi
once with a plain, every day common
sens) talk on Ibe question of Ibe free
C iosge of silver. He began by giving a
History nv me coinage laws 01 Hie L oiled
Stales from 1701' to tbe local led crime
nf 1H7-), and showed conclusively that
unless (he legal ratio of the two metals,
gold and silver, correspon led precisely
wuh me market ratio mere never had
bepu and never could be, under free
coinage, concurrent circulation. The
m ney that was overvalued at the mint
Invariably drove oat the dearer coins.
He s'-otiied the idea that because the
world's debts were many times in
in excels of the world's coin or money
ttiat therefore the debts could not be
paid till the volume of tbe currency
equalled the amount of the debt. A
twenty dollar piece is not destroyed
after it has paid a twenty dollar debt,
ll can be used at once to pay anolber. It
does not teijijire a thousand bushel bas
kets to measure a thousand buohelsof po

The Mass Convention
l'tirfetiuiit to call Ihe pupuiisls held
their meeting at Orange Hall Saturday,
January i'l' I. to fouler wiib the demo
crats, who had melon ibe previous day
and selected their commutes to make
arrangements with Ibe popuhsis. The
committees ol the two pat ties held their
caucus and decided that Ihe only way to
dfeat the republican party was by
fusion. The convention put the fusion
question and it was carried. At this
juncture several of the leading populists
got up, bade the party good bye, and
walked out, declaring that their party
had been swallowed up by the demo
crats.
The following delegates were elected to
attend the state convention at Portland,
.March L'.lrd: li. tsrown. 11. M. .Martin,
II. Whitset', J. F. Os.ley, James By
ron, J. II. Yi lies, s. s. liolHinger. lien
Uiltette, L. T. Thompson. The delega
tion was instructed to favor fusion.
The proposition agreed upon for the
comity is that each party shall have half
the nominations.
Just what will he thu outcome of this
fusion is hard to determine, but it does
not seem to be agreeable to all. From
our point ot view, it seems that
Itro. Lemiuer aud others who walked out
bad the correct view. If tbe populists
had the right principles, then the demo
crats should have let the populists nom
inate their ticket, and tben they could
support it. Hut the democrats are just
a little too shrewd. They concluded that
if they could get only half a loaf that it
would be better ttian no bread at all,
hence the fusion. Some of the honeet
democrats admit that they do uot care
a atraw for principle. Their object is to
get the paying ollircs, and principle cau
go to the dogs. Scants.
