VITUPERATION VS. ARUUMEM.
There is quite a marked difference
in the arguments tised in thiscam
paign by the Republicans aud those
advanced by the Democrats. The
Republicans have used uiaiuly the
general argument of prosperity
and the pood results of the l.epnbli
can policy in national affairs. They
have also criticised Mr. Chamberlain
in a legitimate way. by picking to
pieces some of his flimsy campaign
arguments On the other hand, the
Democratic press has conducted a
campaign of abuse, general and per
sonal, l'rom t ho head of the ticket
o the f ot. the Democratic brethern
have abused aiid libeled the Repub
lican candidates, but saying little
about their own. They have advanced
no affirmative " arguments for their
own ticket. They abuse Mr. Furnish
because he is a banker and has made
EOoie ironey, depending on a sup
posed aversion of the people to vot
ing for any man who has made a fin ancial
success. Against Mr. Fnr
siih'e character for ability and hon
esty they can show nothing.
They, will find that t hat the voteis
will not consider business capacity
such a very bad thing in a governor.
It is the same with other candi
dates. Ia one case,Mr. Crawford's.

SEE HERE, MR. CHAMBERLAIN.
Mr. Chamberlain makes some sort
of a claim that the Oregon constitu
tion is being violated in the payment
of salary and fees to the Slate ollicers
over the amounts specified iu the
Constitution. Now. a number of
these acts were passed during the ad
ministiatiou of (iovernor l'ennoyer,
and also while Mr. Chamberlain was
Attorney General. Certainly the re
gulur appropriation bills carried the
items for all of them. There have
been no iucreases since then.
It is
a pertinent ouestion to ask ,
Jir. namoena.u, u meui iawa j which are only oblaiiuvU.y long ser
nnconstitntional, why, as Attorney ! , hls prominence iu that
General, the -legal advisor of the ; ,M,(y Toi.gu. h1i..M receive a won

from being drawn out of the Treasu

A WORD OH VYARMNU.
The first step in the next pauie will
be for Oregou to declare to the world
that the policies under which the
nation has risen to the marvelous
prosperity of PJ.i'2 are disapproved
in Oiegou and may be expected to
be disapproved in the oongressi tusrl
elections all over the country- this
fall. If holiest money, expausiou
and regard for the new opportuni
tiesof Pacific commerce have lost
caste in Oregon, they hnv? lost caste
elsewhere. A Democratic Governor

FURNISH THEN ANI NOW. 1
While Mr Furnish held olliee as a
democrat a few years ago his honesty
was never ipiestioned by auy member
of his party. On the contrary, dem-'
ocratscousi lered ' Uilly' i'urni-h ail ,
right in every sen-e of the term. But j district than "dene'' I'arrott. Ke
now, as Mr. Chamberlain quotes, "'i ! elect him. .
cbangehascomeoverthespiiit of their
dreams." Mr. Furnish refused to
follow his party into the Bryan camp.
aud for this reason democratic stump
speakers aud newspapejs can easily
see that h- is dishonest and ha-made j at Washington, J). C, and all of the
entirely too much money. They even . people are awate of this fact. The
ridicule Mr, Fnrui-h because he isn't voters will then-fore be very careful
an orator. The logical conclusion ! about voting a young and practically
is that it is all right for a democrat j unknown man into this yery import
to be dishonest, and that talkative-; ant olliee. "Uncle tieorge"' has well
