OREGON APPROPRIATIONS.
K the voters ol this congressional dis
trict have any business eeuse, to say
nothing of political seuse, tbey will
never consent to turn down Iboruas LI.
Tongue, who has demonstrated iu a re
tnarkablc manner his ability and fitness
to serve the people of bis district. The
people of this district are peculiarly in
terested iu the improvement of theii
rivers anJ barbora, and they must de
pend jn the man whom they elect to
congress to look after their interests in
this regard. Tongue is not only a wcrk
er and a man of resource, bat he is in
accord with the adminibtration and the
majority in each house of congress.
Veatch has always been known as an
obstructionist and a kicker, one who was
on all occasions opposed to appropria
tions ot this kind. Not only that, bat
he would be absolutely without influ
ence in a congress which is overwhelm
ingly republican, and which his a oat
sanguine friends would not claim could
be changed "during his term of office.
There is not a congressional district in
the United States which has been better
taken care of by congress in the way of
appropriations, by reason of the fact that
it has been represented in both houses
of congress almost continually by repub
licans, than has the district which in
eludes Western Oregon. Let ua see.
Prior to 1897 there was appropriated
and expended the following sums for the
improvement of the rivers and harbors
of Western Oregon :

In aiJitioa to this for the Wiltamet'-e
river ani Yamhill river there was ap
propriated Jutts 4, !ti'J7, during the pres
ent conjress, tlti'J.oOJ. The same bill
appropriated for a custom house at Tort-
land 20J,0jj, and for the Indian school
at Salem $71,700.
la addition tj the abjva there hai
been a lare number of appropriations
for Indiau aneuciea and schools, fish
hatcheries and wnttbrs of that kind, all
of which were secured throdgh the iu
flueuee of our delegation iu congress.
Of course Oreguu has been for a long
time ably represented in thu United
Mates senate and these result were fee
cured by a delegation iu both houses,
which was able to work iu harmony with
each other and itilb. thu adminttlaliou.
The voters of this district should cou
bider well these- matters aul protect
their ioturcsts by returning Thomas li.
Tongue to congress by au overwhelming
majority.
tkiili the billion faction uud the
Mitchell faction of the republican party
io the state ought to be satisfied with lbs
result of the state convention. The
foimou faction captured the organisa
tion and the Mitchell faction captured
the nominations.
WILL MR. VliAICH LXPLA1N?
The democrat stale convention held in
Portland, Tnetday, April l' ISlK, at
which It. M. Watch was nominated for
congress in the frst congressional dis
trict, was practically unanimous for Mr.
Cleveland ami named as delegate lo
the national it im ralie convention
eilit U'Hiitleineii, all if about cr at
that titnu gold atandaid men. This con-
veutiu was not oulv iu svuipathy with
Mr. Cleveland pereoially, but were
thoroughly in accord with hia financial
views. Tbey were as well known then
as ther ' ' He had never hid
(hem under alunliel. Ilia views itpjn
the coinage ol (ilver ere made public
before be took his seat as ptosiJent the
first trui. Io every annual meaeago to
conjures they had been repeat d, aud
be had brcg-Kl ,'ptaclically for tLe repeal
of the Hland-Allison ait long before the
Sherman Uw was pataed. As an in
stance tti.it that convention knew what
they were doing iu electing Clevelaud
delegates, and that they understood
Cleveland's .position, Ihry adopted the
following plark io Ibeir platform
"Fourth. We tvlieve in holiest
money, the gold and silver coinage of
thejconstitutlon, and in eurrenoy con
vertableinto vuch coinage without liw,
and of sufficient volume to meet all the
demauds of the people ; wo demaud that
all money coined or issued by the
United States should be of e-iual mono
Ury vslue, and of e-inal put chasing
power for tlieiich and the poor, aud
that all paper currenr iscued by the
government should bo redeemable in
either golJ or silver at the option of the
holder, aud not at the discretion of the
secrets l j of the treason."
On thu platform as it theu was, cou
laiuiug this plank on the money ques
tion, Mr. Yeatcb accepted the nomina
tion and made the mce fo coogrees,
knowiug that it was a Cleveland plat
form, lie not only stood ou this plat
form, but after he was defeated for coc
gieesandMr. Cleveland was elected he
accepted au otlice uuder the Cleveland
administration which he hoMs lod.iy.
The question ie, did Mr.Yea'ch believe in
the pi incipa's of Mr. Cleveland aud the
platform adopted at the lVn'.and con-,
ventiou, and if so, wheu did he chaugc !
bis views'.' Oris it possible that Mr.,
Yeatcb in cider to make himself solid
with tbc populists, and get himsell in
line for an otlice, abandoned the princi
pal) for w hich he stood in 11'.'?
The Eugene Guard in commenting on I
the preamble to tbe tepubl'can state!
platform, which congratulates the pec
pie on the return of prosperity, sas that
tbe change for tbe belter in our condi
tion is due to providential causes. This
is quite true. Providence has frequently
interfered to tsave this nation from utter
ruin. Providence was present at the
very birth of the republic and raised up
Washington, who was aljle by the help
of providence to pilot the ship of state
through the rocks an J etiosli which
threatened its deetructiou and launch it
on the smooth waters of prosperity.
Again, when the black clouds of ioaur
rection, which gathered over tbe land in
13C0, found a weak and vacillating demo
crat in the presidential chair, providence
again came to the rescue and raised up
the immottil Lincoln, who saved the
country from destruction at the bands of
those who sought to destroy it, not oce
of whom were repupiicaus.
And now, like the editor of tbe Guard,
we can distinctly distinguish tbe hand of
providence in tbe return to power in tbe
nation of the republican party, which
has always brought prosperity to the na
tion. Yes, there is no more doubt that
providence had a hand in the election ol
McKinley than there :s in the undis
puted fact that providence gave us a
Washington, a Liacolu and a republican
party.

Washington, April 20. The Cuban
reiolution is now a law ot the laud, and
tbe. ultimatum to Snain an accomplished
fact. Tho president al 11 :'.M affiled bis j

gress requiring paio to evacuate the !

the announcement was made at the .
White House that it had been signed by
the president and been sent to the Span-
hh government.
The ultimatum
the White House
was brought over to !
by Day, who went
over it with the president before the lat
ter allixed his signature.
After this public announcement lay
said the ultimatum would be trans
mitted this morning to Madrid, ad
dressed lo Minister Woodford, who will
deliver it lo the Spanish government.
As soou as a final determination to send
it bad boeu reached it was started on its
wa to Madrid.
lho Spanish minister was furnished a
copy of the pa er, and as soon as he le
ceived it he made brief reply and asked

island aud its waters, and that in tbe
eveut a satisfactory response ie not re

Wasiiinuion, April CO. The applica
tion of the Spanish minister for his pass
ports reached tbe state department
about noon. Secretary L'ay gave orderi
that the be forwarded to tbe minister
immediately.
No instructions have been cent to
Minister Woodford at Madrid to withdraw-
from Spaiu. The French ambassa
dor and Austrian minister were with
Senor Polo when the ultimatum was re
ceived. Arrangements were at once
made for the transfer ot Spanish proper
ty to their legations. This includes the
archives and the Spanish iiaga.

The
President Fully Realizes That
Mis Latest Act Heans War.
Nnv Yokk, April IX). A diepatca
to
the Herald from Washington says ;
Conscious in the belief that be has
done all in his power to avert war, the
president today attaches his signature to
the act of congress and the ultimatum to
Spain which it contemplates, knowing
full well that in so doing diplomacy has
failed aud that war must bt the outcome,
it is expected that tbe answer which
will be given by Spaiu to the president's
ultimatum which will be presented by
Minister Woodford will be the presenta
tion to that diplomat of hie passports
and that he w ill at once leave for France.
Fully appreciating that 8paiu will
spurn the demand, if she docs not retali
ate by declaring war on tbe United
States, the president has made all ar
rangements to begin active aud mili
trry operations tbe moment the time
expires. Non-compliance by Spain with
the terms of President McKinley's ulti
ma im will be followed by tbe dispatch

gent read tbe speech from the throne.
Tbe queen reviewed tbe situation, and
referred to the efforts of the pope for
peace.
Tbe queen tegent announced that she
had summoned the cortes to defend
Spain's rights. She appealed to the
Spanish people to gather behind her
eon's throne.
The opening o! thu cortea was a mag
niticent sight. All the wealth and beau-
ty of Madrid was gathered iu tbe senate,
where every available foot of space was
occupied. All tbe members of tho di
plomatic corps were present in lull drten.
Large bodies of troop ware draw n up
outside the buildiug. The iueeu regent,
j in reading the speech from tbc throne
referred to the trouble mentioned at the
last session of tbe cortes, esying it had
increased, "owing to the altitude of tho
people of the United States in fomenting
the rebellion," and adding that hitherto
Spain bad submitted to threats and in
sults, but there becoming iutoleiablo
"tbey would be obliged to break rela
tions with the United States."
After referring to thu pope's endeavors
to reach a peaceful conclusion iu Cuba,
the queen coutiuuea: 'ToHsibly, how
ever, the peace efforts may fail to con
trol tbe evil passions excited against
Spain, and lest this moment arrivo, I
bavc sumtnoncl the cortes to defend
oar right i, whatever sacrifice tbit course
may entail."
Referring (o the trouble iu the Philip
pines, the queeu says:
"Although a somber aud blxidy fu
ture is before us, the diillcultiea are not
beyond our power. With our glorious
army nay and a united iialioii before
foreign aggression, we tiust iu Ciod that
we shall overcome without a staiu ou
our honor the baseless and uujuut at
tacKs made upou us."
All Quiet at Madrid.
M.tuaio, April -.'0. -All is quiet aud
orderly here this evening. Minister
Woodford continues his preparations for
departure. This morning's newspapers
are very warlike io tone. Imparcial
contrasts the manner in which the two
nations enter into the conflict, saying
"the aggressor is noisy, insulting and
clamorous, and the aggrieved is reso
lute, calm and self-contained."
Spaniards Enthused.

is reported throughout Spain at the
