FEBRUARY 18, 1896
EVERY REPUBLICAN TAKE
A. HAND.
The meeting of the Republican cen
tral committee will be held next Satur
day, at which time the date will be
chosen for the county convention, and
the call for the primaries issued. With
this action of the central committee the
political campaign actively opens. The
convention will probably be held the
last week in March or the first one in
April, as the meeting of the state con
vention, April 9th, precludes a later
date being chosen.
The time is ripe for the Republicans
of Wasco county to be up and stirring,
making ; every endeavor -that the men
chosen at the primaries shall be repre
sentative Republicans, wbo will go into
the convention carrying with them a
deep concern for the welfare of the
party, and not bound to any clique or fac
tion, which will feed the flames of party
dissension. The Republican party in
Wasco county was never in better favor
with the people than it is today, at the
entrance into a campaign which, it can
te said, will continue until the great
November election. The men who two
years ago were elected to fijl the count
offices, have brought no discredit upon
themselves or upon the party, and
whether they be chosen again or new
candidates nominated, no apologies need
be made for the county management
eince the last election.
At the primaries the battle will be
fought, and the entrance of the eena
torial fight into the situation will make
the contest a very sharp one. Upon the
men selected at the primaries depends
the future i f the party during the com
ing campaign. The almost certain vie
tory to which the Republicans look for
ward may cause a lukewarm feeling and
carelessness upon the part of the voters
in the organization which might result in
a serious handicap later on. At the
primaries the people are given an op
portunity to make an expression of their
choice. The delegates selected should
be men who will guard well the trust
IVltnmirioil t r tVlOtll I n .1 atnmt- Ka Kit..-..
on a victorious march. Every Republi
can should participate in the choice of
delegates to the county convention in
order that the best representatives may
be chosen. A healthy interest shown in
the party before the nominating con
vention ia a good guaranty that its fu
ture course will be a satisfactory one.
With the subsidence of war talk, the
dropping of Durrant into obscurity and
the refusal of Cbauncey Depew to be
interviewed, enterprising newspapers
Lave been forced to go to the Arctic
circle in order to feed a curious public.
No fishier tale was ever sprung upon an
unoffending people than thetwo reports',
, coining from points as widely separated
as the Missouri river and the Pacific
ocean, that Nansen had found the pole
and waa bringing it back ,with him.i
The public will stand a vast amount of
bumbuggery and relish it, as the late
Mr. Barnum waa wont to declare, but
.there are instances when newspaper en
terprise can be carried too far, and the
Nansen incident ia one of them.
There is merit in Fitzsimmons' query
' to Governor Ahumada when, after
watching the disemboweling of three or
four horses in a bull fight, he asked him
if fighting with gloves were anywhere
near as brutal as what he had just wit
nessed. Without wishing to disparage
the Mexican authorities in their lauda
ble attempt to thwart the wishes of the
sluggers, we cannot help thinking their
inconsistences are certainly ingenuous.
Bad as a slugging match may be, it is
nettling in comparsion with the popular
diversion of a bull fight, neither in its
brutality nor demoralizing effects. The
Mexicans are straining at a gnat and
. swallowing a camel.
What The Dalles needs -is the intro
duction of outside capital to bring out
.resources now dormant.' In commercial
lines we are fully developed, but are in
want of the stimulus given by manu
facturing. ' Nowhere can better oppor
tunities for the establishment of almost
any kind of industry be offered than at
The Dalles. An article upon this
phase of the city's, needs in last even
ing's Mountaineer meets with our full
approbation. When it comes to work
ing for the advancement of our city, the
two local papers will wor as a unit.
The Salem hog must give way to the
Russian bear. Not content with mo
jiopolizlng things in Turkey, the czar

marines to. Seoul, Corea. The- king ia

gation. Were it not that bis services
will be needed in the coming Mitcbell-
Dolph senatorial fight, it might be well
for Judge Denny to resume his position
as confidential adviser to the Gorean
king, and try and straighten things out
a little.
Pendleton haa developed a great ca
pacity of acquisition. She has just been
chosen as the (place for holding the an
nual tournament of the Eastern Oregon
and Washington Firemen's Association,
which takes place next June ; and is
threatening to win from Walla Walla a
meat packing and cold storage establish
ment, which was contemplated being
started there. . In many ways Pendle
ton is a good example for other cities to
follow.
The agitation which is being carried
on for a reduction in letter postage can
not be expected to bear fruit till after
March 4, 1897. There are already
enough deficits in tnp Democratic ad
ministration without another being
caused in the postoffice department.
With the enactment of a tariff measure
that will revive the business of the coun
try, and at the same time provide a suffi
cient revenue for the nation's needs, one
cent postage may find realization.
But littleover a year remains till the
Democratic administration goes out of
power. It is to he hoped enough bonds
