REPUBLICAN PARTY NEEDS A
GOOD SAMARITAN.
The following correspondence by
Thomas Harlan upon the political situa
tion is a true resume of the past and a
prophecy for the future. The points
enumerated are all within the domain of
fact, and the conclusions are their legiti
mate outcome. Mr. Harlan is a well
known ex-politician of Nebraska, who
is as well known to tbe Nebraska press.
In naming Robert Lincoln for tbe stand
ard bearer of the republican party three
years hence it is believed he coincides
with the present general sentiment of
republicans, who, though now so de
moralized, Mr. Harlan believes to be
again destined to victory.
Mr. Editor Having been requested
by a reporter of your paper to contribute
something concerning the political par
ties of today and the cause of the defeat
of the republican party in the last na
tional campaign ; also something con
cerning our hope of success in the future,
I have to say that I do not feel able to
make a post mortem examination of the
remains of the once "grand old party"
and tell everv cause of its demise. One
thing, however, is certain, whatever the
cause was, the republican party that
Lincoln and Grant belonged to is dead
Blaine, Logan, Garfield, Grant and Lin
coin are dead.
The mass of the people are always
right. A large majority of the Ameri
can people are republicans in principle
The party has lost nothing in strength ;
but they will never put the republican
party in power while it is controlled by
by the present political bosses, who
manipulate its conventions and domin
ate its actions in the interests of spoils
hunters. It is an army without a gen
eral. Give it a good general and it will
win. The managers of the party may
publish calls for conventions, and pass
resolutions that the party still lives and
that the people will know more and be
wiser when they are told more about
the McKinley law ; but they are gener
als without an army and have no power.
As an existing fact the old party is dead
There was no other way of getting the
old leecheB loose. The machinery of the
republican party killed the party. It
had become a disgraceful scramble of
mediocrity for spoils. Thousands upon
thousands of republicans bolted Harri
son in all of the states because he was
the machine nominee, the nominee of
the spoils hunters, many voting for
Cleveland, a few for Weaver, and many
not at all. Ingersoll was silenced, or
rather kept silent ; Gresham went over
to the other side ; in fact the heart of
the old party was torn out of it. The
party without a heart then became close
communion. Weaver had no real fol
lowing. There was really no third
party, and there is none today. They
had no principles to follow. The demo
crats gave Weaver the states that he
carried to keep Harrison from carrying
them. The disaffected and disgusted
republicans went everywhere and any
where to get away from the political
hyenas, and they will stay away until
the hyenas are properly disposed of.
Of all the republican states Nebraska
has suffered the most from republican
misrule, and yet Nebraska, fairly man
aged with an unpacked convention with
the old professional politicians laid
aside, would be overwhelmingly repub
lican. The same is true of Kansas in a
less degree, and pre-eminently true of
Colorado and Nevada.
None will doubt that Illinois, Indiana,
Michigan, Wisconsin and Connecticut
are republican states, if fairly managed.
The principles of the republican party
are as good now as they were in 1858,
when the martyred Lincoln sounded its
principles in his immortal words, that
this nation "cannot exist half slave and
half free ;" that "a house divided against
itself cannot stand;" and later when the
flag had been trampled upon, that "the
union must be maintained between all
the states if it should take a drop of
blood for every drop of sweat that had
been wrung from the brow of a slave."
The modern democratic party, like
the wreck of the republican party, is a
party of spoils hunters. It is already
going into factions over the distribution
of spoils. It cares less for principle
than for office, and will be worse divided
as the administration goes on.
A new generation of men has come
upon the stage. They know what is
the matter. They must have a new,
clean, and fair management of affairs,
which affects tbe present time and the
rising generation. The old party of Lin
coln and Grant is torn to pieces ; it is
dissevered and mangled and bleeding at
every pore. We want a Samaritan to
bind it up, to heal it, and to save it.
This is a free country and we are free
men, and we must choose.
Now comes tbe more delicate part and
vital question, t. ., who can be that
leader? A leader whose views upon the
tariff question are known to have been
extremely liberal is the only leader who
will do.
ROBERT T. LINCOLN
is a broad-minded, liberal republican of
the Blaine style, known to be conserva
tive upon the principles of tariff and
reciprocity. He may not be the ablest
man in the party, but he belongs to this
generation of men. He ia of the right
age, and has shown enough ability to
prove that he would make a good presi
dent, and the fitness of things points to
him as being the man now in sight that
it would be in the power of the republi
can party to elect.
Lincoln is not a politician ; he is a
statesman that can be supported by all.
With Robert T. Lincoln at the head of
the republican ticket in 1836, the repubi
licans would sweep the country. Not
because he is the son of Abraham Lin
coln, a fact that Robert would scorn to
take advantage of ; but because he is a
modest, unassuming, able, capable man.
In fact, as above stated, the republi
can party has lost no strength. Fairly
managed it is stronger today than it has
been for the last twelve years. And
upon a platform framed according to the
wishes of the republican voters ; with a
new set of men at the helm young
men the men of today, it can take con
trol of the government at the close of
this administration and hold it indefi
nitely. Thomas Harlan.
Wool men have doubtless observed
that through rates to the east from San
Francisco are now reduced to 75 cents
per hundred pounds. The way to avail
themselves of this big reduction, as
they probably have also as astutely ob
served, is to ship by the D. P. & A. N.
Co. to San Francisco, by which means
the total cost for carriage from The
Dalles to Boston will not exceed a cent
and a third per pound, as compared with
2.40 to 2.65 cents per pound heretofore.
This means a saving of many thousands
of dollars.
The installments given us every few
days from Hawaii have all the horrifying
fascination of a continued story. It
may be that the finale will be as insipid
as is the last chapter of a love story.
Burled Alive.
The sad news was received in Baker
City Saturday of the death of a young
man by the name of Flick under pecu
liar circumstances.
The young :inan lived with his father,
Mr. Michael Flick, a farmer and wool
grower on Snake river below the mouth
of Connor creek. The father and son
also owned the placer mines in the vi
cinity of their home which they worked
every spring.
On Thursday afternoon last, the
young man was engaged in digging a
ditch through which would be con
veyed water for use at the mines. While
at work in a cut about 20 feet deep the
bank suddenly gave way and he was
buried beneath tbe heavy weight of
earth and he was unable to extricate
himself, no one being near to render
him assistance.
At supper time when the young man
failed to put in his appearance at home,
his father went to where the boy had
been to work and was horrified when
the awful realization dawned upon him
that his son had been killed by being
caved on. One hand extended above the
debris, being the only portion of the boy
visible. The father hurriedly gave the
alarm and hastened to extricate his son
in the hope that life was not yet extinct,
but without avail, as the body was life
less when removed.
The parents have the full sympathy
of all in their sad affliction and irrepar
able loss.
There is one unvarying rule for wom
en, married and single. It is never
right, says Harper's Bazar, to sign
one's name with the addition of Miss or
Mrs. You are Mary Emily Jones, not
Mrs. Patrick Fitzgerald Jones, to
whomsoever you may be writing. If it
be necessary to notify your corre
spondent of vour married style and
state you may dp so, and in one of
several ways. Please observe that a
correspondent should not be left in
doubt as to this, much embarrassment
being frequently caused by the omis
sion, in letters between strangers, of
exact information as to whether the
writer is married or single. You may
easily indicate all you wish to tell. You
may plaoe Mrs. P. F. before the Mary
Emily aforesaid, in brackets. You may
write Mrs. Patrick Fitzgerald out fully
and plainly in the left-hand corner of
your 6heet, below your proper sig
nature. Or you may simply inclose
your engraved visiting card in your let
ter, this being on the whole the most
elegant and also the most convenient
method of showing one's relation to society.
The more Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy is used the better it is liked. We
know of no other remedy that always
gives satisfaction. It is good when you
first catch cold. It is good when your
cough is seated and your lungs are sore.
It is good in any kind of a cough. We
have sold twenty-five dozen of it and
every bottle has given satisfaction.

At the head
of all blood-purifiers is Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. But it's
different from all of them. What
ever is claimed for this, it's guaran
teed to do. The money is refunded
in every case where it fails to bene
fit or cure. It's because it is differ
ent that it can be sold so. All
diseases originating from a torpid
liver or impure blood yield to it.
It cleanses and purifies the system,
freeing it from all manner of blood
poisons, no matter from what cause
they have arisen. For Dyspepsia,
Biliousness, Scrofula, Salt -rheum,
Tetter, Erysipelas, or any blood
taint or disorder, it is an unequaled
remedy. Nothing else can take its
place.
" Golden Medical Discovery "
contains no alcohol to inebriate,
and no syrup or sugar to derange
digestion.
It's a concentrated vegetable ex
tract ; put up in large bottles ;
pleasant to the taste, and equally
good for adults or children ; works
equally well all the year round.
