NOMINATIONS ARE IN ORDER
The writuiDgs of the Oregonian
because of the dose administered to
its cherished idol, Joseph Simon, at
the late Republican convention fur
nish amusement to those people who
have little concern which way Mult
soman, county politics go. For a
day or two following the conven
tious there was a period of hesitancy,
i uncertainty what course to pursue,
on the part of the great d.nily.
- Considering the fact that the
forces of the Oregonian had been
defeated and Ibe "combine" had won
signal victories all along tlie line,
there was a marked absence of com
ment, upon the situation. Gradu
ally, however, little by little, edito
rial paragraphs Degan to appear
intimating that a candidate for con
gress in the Second district who
would represent the gold side of the
money question would be a desira
1 1 rwia . .
aoie ming. men came tuo an
nouncement that no Republican
should vote for Mr. Ellis, which car
ries with it the innuendo that he
Should vote for Judge Bennett, Mr.
McKercher or, possibly, Mr. Quinn,
the Populist candidate; since for
whom else could he vote ?
Bui there aie those who think the
Oregonian does not intend support
ing either Jiu.ge Bennett, Mr. Mc
Kercher or Mr. Quinn; but really
desires the nomination of a gold
standard Republican! Possibly so.
and if true the trouble has been that
no candidate has been found to fill
the bill. Mr. Mallory would not do,
because if he were nominated Mr.
Hume would take the stump against
him, and Mr. Mallory would lose his
temper. Joe Simon wouldn't do,
because he couldn't get any votes,
John C. Leasure wouldn't do, be
cause Mr. Leasure never runs for
office, and so on down the line of the
Oregonian favorites.
bad as the plight may be, we
think we think we see a solution
Modesty is the chief virtue of the
Oregonian, and it is modesty, possi
bly, that has prevented that paper
from announcing the candidacy of
Harvey W. Scott, a gentleman well
known to you all as the able, talent
ed and popular editor of the Orego
nian. Why not nominate Mri Scott ?
He is not a bolter. Did he not con
aemn inose wno Drone the caucus
rule at Salem? He believes in pro
tection, a9 his ai tides, written fifteen
years ago will prove. He is in in
lenect a giant; in influence sur
passed by no one in the state; and,
above all, he would represent sound
money in all its soundness.
A sick doctor should be willing to
take the same prescription he ad
Tises for others: Why should not
a statesman De wining o undergo
what he wants another to do?
Most modestly, timorously and
appreciatively do we present the
name Of H. W. Scott for congress
man from the Second district.
During the twelve months ending
with February the imports of foreign
wool into the United States amount
ed to 273,923,590 pounds. It is as
certained from competent statistics
that the American product for. the
months mentioned would not exceed
the amount of imports, so bad it not
been for foreign wool there would
have been a market for the entire
American clip. As it is, the East
ern markets are glutted, and those
who sell this spring will find the
price affected to a large extent by
the supply of wool left over from
last season. There is no reason to
expect a higher price this year than
last, nor until a tariff bill is framed
to give adequate protection to wool-
growers. Thib can only be done
after the election of a. Republican
president and congress.
Any tovn whose business depends
upon an agricultural or stock raising
country has its brisk and its dull
seasons. In the spring and fall trade
is lively and stores are rapidly de
pleted of their stocks. In the sum
mer, during harvest, and in the
winter, when roads are bad, business
is quiet. The establishment of in
dustries having steady pay rolls
would make business good the year
round and tide over the periods of
inactivity. The Dalles needs man
ufactures, and is sure to get them
when capitalists recover confidence
and seek investment for their money,
With better roads, an open river
(possibly) and a woolen mill and
kindred industries, this city would
soon double its population.

Blakeley & Houghton desire us to pub
lish the following extract from a letter
of Chns. M. Gutfeld of Keedley, Fresno
county, Calif., aa they handle the rem
edy referred to and want their customers
to know what a eplended medicine it is :
'It ia with pleasure 1 tell 'you that by
one day's uee of Chamberlain's Cough
remedy I was relieved of a very .bad
cold. My head was completely stopped
up and I could not sleep at night. lean
recommend this remedy." A cold nearly
always starts in the head and afterwards
extends to the throat and lungs. By
using this .'remedy freely as soon as the
cold has been contracted it will cure the
cold at once and prevent it from extend
ing to the lungs. ,

Ayer'a Sarsaparilla enjoys the extra
ordinary distinction of having been the
only blood purifier allowed on exhibit at
the world's fair, Chicago. Manufact
urers of other sarsaparillas sought by
every means to obtain a showing of their
goods, but they were all turned away
under the application of the rule for
bidding the entry of patent medicines
and nostrums. The decision of the
world's fair authorities in tavor of Ayer's
Sarsaparilla was in effect aa follows :
"Ayer's Sarsaparilla' Is not a patent
medicine. It does not belong to the
list of nostrums. It is here on its
merits."
