CHASING FALSE GODS.
The approach of the time for holding
the Republican state convention is
caneing the political situation to become
more interesting every day. While
there is no state ticket to be nominated
at this time, the choice of congressmen
and selection of delegates to the national
convention, together with the fact that
members of the legislature will ba nom
inated, all combine to make the next
few weeks exciting ones for politicians
and incidentally for the people of the
state.
The congressional situation has
changed considerably since two years
ago. Then . the opposition to Hermann
and Ellis, while it existed, was not of
the kind nor degree to bother these gen
tlemen, and their re-nominations were
ABily secared. This time, however, de
feat is hovering near, and in the case
of Mr. Ellis it looks as if he will fail to
obtain any delegation save from his own
county. Hermann will be more fortu
nate, and it is possible he may muster
votes enough to secure the victory. The
opposition to Ellis comes from several
sources. There are those who think he
lias not accomplished for the state dur
ing his four years incumbency, what he
should .have, and for this reason think
some other man could be eent to Wash
ington whose efforts would redound
more to the material progress of the
state than Mr. Ellis'. Then, there is an
other class of people who can always be
counted upon to oppose the man that is
in. This class comprises the rival can
didates and their friends, and the influ
ence they possess can be exerted to but
a limited extent.
The real opposition to Ellis comes
from another direction, and is far more
formidable. The people of this district
lave learned a good deal this last year
or two, and many who failed to under
stand the vital principles of our mone
tary system then, are beginning to seejthe
light, and are able to appreciate, in
some degree, the necessity of a sound
and stable currency. Ellis votes for
free silver, and by doing so, no longer
represents the thinking portion of his
constituents.'
Stranger things have happened than
that Mr. Ellis should be re-nominated,
and if he is, he ought to be, and will be,
' elected. A free silver Republican is
Better than a free trade Democrat ; and
so long as our present congressman votes
for a duty on wool, he is better than the
man who by voting otherwise aids in de
stroying this industry.'
We are not among those who think
the money question is the paramount
one. The tariff exceeds it in import
ance,' and to just such an extent Mr.
-Ellia is more right on national questions
than wrong. But why choose a man
who bnt partially represents the state
when one can be elected who will do so
entirely? ' : '
. There, are more reasons for Mitchell's
re-election than there are for Ellis', since
the former has proven himself an unusu
lly successful worker for the needs of
tbe state, and so bis silver record can, to
a certain, extent, be lost sight of,
Mitchell, however, is an unusual man,
and Mr. Ellis cannot expect thac tbe
same charity that is given to Senator
Mitchell will be extended to him.
Oregon does not want to be known as
a free silver state, and v so should look
well to the choice of her delegation.
THE COMING PRIMARIES.
At the primaries, which will be held
next Saturday, every Republican should
vote. The success of the party this year
can only be jeopardized by the nomina
tion of unworthy 'men whose choice
would be repulsive to the voters through
out the state and county. The make-up
of a ticket can, in a large degree, be de
termlned by tbe result at the primaries,
and it is of - vital importance that repre
sentative citizens, who will vote aa they
think and are not subject to the control
of any clique, be sent to the county con
vention.- The ' man who stays away
f.om the primaries is neglecting a duty,
the performance of which is ts neces
sary as that of voting at elections.
-. Another thing voters should keep in
mind is to select only such delegates as
will Eurely attend the convention.- The
proxy system is fraught with dangers,
and by it tbe will of tbe people in the
locality from which the proxy is sent is
often defeated. No man should hi
ft
chosen a delegate unless he has intereb
enough in tbe parly and community to
cause him to attend the meeting of the
convention.
Let representative citizens be chosen
to name the ticket, and let only those be
elected who. are certain to attend. In
this way the ends of good government
will be served.
