Free silver at 16 to 1, anti-expansion and Bryan are the demand of the fu aioniets ia Oregon, LOOKING CAU1LY AT PORTO RICl. Tkls being a camp itgn yeir we mmt, ol course, es set to endure a itret deal of dust-throwi ig and gener.l muddling on the part o( i i teres t d parties; but there ia on thing about which the coun try should rema n as cl-a'-yisiunei at possible, lest a grant mistake be made which once made would ba long correct log, perhapt f rever. The thing w refer to ia the true nature of the Porto Ricaa bill. The hysteric 1 frame of mind ia a very bid one in which to examine a measure of this kind. We may, some of at, have been ruoro or less affected by the wild shriek for absolute free trade with Puerto Rico as a full-till meot of our pledgee made to the Puerto Ricana through General Miles, and for a season have join-d the clatter, which was simply assigns I to put me aaminisira lion in a bole iu this very important matter; but now, after we have had time te get thoroughly cool, a mere glauo at this measure is sullicieot K stow lit much a burden it will be to the Puerto Rican, and how gr.tt a breach of the al leged good faith which sons ot the djo tora laid down as our guide. Some people clamored for absolute free trade with Puerto Rico. That is just what ihU bill affords absolute free trade nothing short of it. The 15 per cent of the Diogley law ra'es provided in the law hava not the slightest margin in them ef protection for the mainland pro ducer. and were not intended to have. It is not even a revenue bill, for the receipts fiom its op nation are to go right back to the Puerto Ricana. The only thing saved by the bill ia the principle that congress baa power to place an im portant tariff on goods landed here fiom oar tropical islands. That principle is fixed byj it, and in it there may yet proye to be the salvation of producers here on the mainland who may require protection against competitors paying their labor o0 cents a day. GLARING INCONSISTENCY. We noticed a marked improvements in the last issue of the Eugene Citzen the fusion organ of Lane ciunty. The editor was off duty. The more clearly the Potto Rico bill is understood the plainer it becomes that the republicans in congress did tbo prop er thing in passing it. . The present cold and otherwise dir agreeable weather is probably due to the presence of the Texas "Cyclone" in this eectioa of the state. Davis and the weather came simultaneously. A second great shipyard is to be built at San Francisco and will give employ ment to 3000 men. That town made a valuable reputation when it turned out the battle-ship Oregon. The national congressional committee has done Congressman Thomas II. Ton gas, of Oregon, the honor of selecting one of bis speeches on the financial question as a campaign document. Con gressman Tongue is in pretty good com pany at the national capita!, and rank among the big brainy men of the country. Our Democratic friends are gradually overcoming their prejudice toward the "money power. Their nomioee tur Congress in this district is tho Hon. Ber nard flaly, a Lakeview banker, who won over our own Captain Heath by a vote of SO to 09. And it ia understood that the Populists, except a few middle- of-the-roaders, have aeri-ed to fuse on his kind of a layout. "It's tougb, hut they like it," yoa know. Sheridan Sun. There are men scattered throughout the district whi will refuse to fuse on this kind of a "layout." Mr. Daly is a gold democrat. He has no sympathy with tin Uryanit-w, and the result will show that they have little sympathy for b m. In regard to the turning down of Capt. Heath great consistency was tuaoi fes ed when ae taka in consideration the following extract from the fusion . state platform. "In time of war, the citizen soldier should he a Republic's defense, and as an example we point with satis faction to the brave and gallant cervices of the Second Ortgou in the late Spanish American war." Pointiog with prid to to the record of the Second Oregon, the ringing voice of the fusion parties is in spired to pronounce against "wars of conquest and colonial possessions," and that thx orave and gsllaot service of the Second Oregon stirred to the nether most the pairiotic deeps i the democrat ic bosom is abundantly illustrated by trie prompt manner iu which the (Jongraa-sion-d candidacy of Captain He till was squelched, and the honor conferred up on the Eastern Oregon bauknr. Boseism in politics is dangerous and corruptive, and we are surprised that the populists and free silver republicans have for the second time been hood winked and brought under this demoral izing influence in this county. They are owned and controlled body and soul by the Koseburg ring, the high mogul of which presides overtbe nocer hi.. dot tinies of the Review. Notice for Publication.

Ths simple and easy way for the qualified voter is to register at once. Mr. Fusioo Populist, how do you like your experience of being used as a cat's paw to rake Chestnuts out of the politi cal fire in the shape of ottices for the democratic party? And bow do yoa like the boast of your friends and aulas, these same democrats, that there are no po pu- lists loft but middle-of-the-road popu list'.' And, further, hor does ths pres ent democratic attitude toward you com pare with tbatol the time when your party stood second in Oregon in point of votes cast for state officers? Transcript. There were no printed tickets in the union primaries or county conventions. A party of the poople has no use for slated delegates. Review. Neither has the republican party. Nor has it ever had any use for such a farce aa three conventions under one common party name, with a single plat form dictated and written hy a small gang of spoilsmen ; nor for the appor tionment of candidates by a boss in sec ret conclave with the ring over which he presides. "Party of the people," shades of Anninias ! DISTRICT ATTORNEY. Geurge .M. Brown for dii-trbt attorney is the selection of a man whose tltnees for the office cannot he iiuesliotied. He is young, energ.-tic, and one of the ablet t prosecutors in the dit-trict. ilis services in that office in the p.st have demon strated that the state's interest have al ways been guarded by a worthv hand one who was always equal to the occas ion, and of whom ths law-breakers have a horror as George prosecutes with a ven geance, f. very one in the district knows George Brown and the republicans have selected a man with an unbeaten-record. He will have a handsome majority on election day. Mareblield Sun. DOES OUR STORY FOOT THE BILL? "Cyclone" levia is doing Oregon just now, and Debs and Coxey are coming toon to whoop it up for fuion.

Capital Jour nal, (Pop ) We are much gratified, as the republi can party of thtt county may well be, at the flattering word, of commendatii n pouring in from all parts of the county in behalf of the head of the county ticket Hon. A. C. Marwtere. The people are wgiouing to recognise in him a wise counselor, au ardent, enthusiastic work er for the county's wellfare, a shrewd, practical and economical business man. In fact a wine, .judicious party leader, but in no sense of the word a boss or dictator. In him is louad all the require ment for a safe, competent and success ful legislator. A. Noltaer, editor of the Portland dis patch idem.) sue up thi stale fusiou proposition as follows: ''The democratic state convention did not complote its work until Friday evening. There was a kind of outwsrd 'fusion consummated by a portion of the populists and democrats, but to say it is 8) inwardiyby many on both sides of the contract would be a vio lation of the troth." In another place he slaps bis party with this statement: "When the republican managers run up againitt a hard knot, they let it alone and go around it. The democrats, on the contrary, are always hunting up hard knots to i un unaii.gr. The latter lias loo many platform-constructors and want ofanusft." Noitner was evidently on to the inside worUiriKa of fusiooist, and, aa a democrat, ma ie discoveries that did not s jit biru nd that were detrimental to his party.

Its opponents eaid it would fail. It is bringing a greater return than was expected. Hawaii has been annexed. The long-threatened . war with Spain has come and gun and an honorable set tlement has been effected. An insurrec tion that disputed the validity of the treaty with Spain haabesn put dawn. A financial bill clinching tb guld ataudard has been paused.

Democrats proclaimed that the PueitoRinan la' would disrupt the re pub lies n party, but as (ien. Grorvenor aptly pointed out, it is afe to distrust democratic anxiety to save republican from odium and outraged public senti ment. Republicans cmctiva that they are placed in authority to settle public questions after due deliberation, and they ' proceed to do it. Iu this respect the democratic party is in a totally different class. I COUPONS i i t Jackson Street, 7 If.
