W. H.
II. Dufar Believes Mitchell Is
the People's Choice.
Dufur, May 10, 1896.
Editor Chronicle, Tlie Dalles, Or.
Dear Sir: In the daily Oregonian of
May 7th there appears an article charg
ing me with having met Hon. O. N.
. Denny of Portland, apparently
by appointment on Friday, May
1st. This information was given,
-so the Oregonian states, hy a well-
known citizen of Wasco county. The
" -article then goes on to state that "the
following dav a meeting was held at
Dufur in which my brotfier, E. B. Du
iur, the Democratic nominee for pint
"Senator of Wasco, Sherman and Gilliam
counties, addressed the citizens of
Dnfur and pledged himself and his col
leagues, if elected, for Hon. John H.
Mitchell for United States senator." It
further states that I was at this meeting
and that someone called oh me for a
speech and that I took up the Mitchell
and other propositions and said that
my kind of Republicans were endorsing
the position taken by my brother on
. these questions.
Now, Mr. Editor, if you wijl allow me
space in your columns, I will attempt to
answer these base and false charges
made by the well-known city of Wasco
and the better known brainy
editor of the Oregonian. In the first
. place, I am not, as is well known in
Wasco, a politician or political boss, but
. simply follow farming for a living, and
am what might be termed ;'one of those
poor farmers of the West that assists in
feeding that capacious maw of that long,
lank cow of , Ben Tillman's." Now, as
. to the meeting of Hon, O. N. Denny and
myself, there were no arrangements
whatever. As is known to most of you
I come to The Dalles every Friday to de
liver my butter and cheese to my cus
tomers and attend to other necessary
business. On that Fridav I had some
business at the First National bank, and
as I came out Mr. Dennv and some
, other gentlemon stood there talking.
' Recognizing me, we shook bands, passed
the time of day, and I Vent on about
my business, Jadge Denny attending to
bis, I presume, for I think be is compe
tent of doing so without any assistance
of the editor of the Oregonian or the
"well-known citizen of Wasco county."
I afterward met Mr. Denny at the Uma-
- tilla House as he came from his dinner",
' and as I was going to mine, I walked np
- the street a short distance with him,
. conversing on different eubjects. If the
editor of the Oregonian will interview
the judge perhaps he will be kind
enough to tell him what our conversa
tion was, seeing it worries the brain of
Harvey W. so mnch. . " " ' ' '
Now as to that meeting at Dufur. My
brother was billed to speak there some
thing like a week before band, and as I
am ' in the habit of listening to both
sides of the question and trying to lparn
all I can (for I an but a common farmer
you know) I attended the meeting, r
riying very late,' Mr. Armsworthy hav
ing finished his speech and my brother
having almost finished his, perhaps
speaking five minutes' after I arrived.
The audience was largely Republican,
and they appeared to be highly pleaded
with the stand taken by Messrs. Dufur
and Armsworthy. Tdid hear this much
of my brother's speech relative to the
election of a United States senator, and
that, was this, that if elected and bis
party was in the minority and could not
elect a senator, that in place of allowing
a deadlock, as happened two years . ago,
thereby retarding .needed legislation, he
would cast his vote for Hon. John H.
Mitchell. After they closed Mr. Bing
ham of Dufur was called upon and
talked to the crowd on the issues before
the people, handling the financial ques
tion in a comprehensive, masterly man
ner. Then I was called upon. Now, as
to my saying that I and my kind of Re
publicans were endowing "my brother or
were supporting him or any other legis
lative or senatorial candidate of this dis
trict, nothing of the kind was eald. But
I did say that I was for John H. Milch
ell tor United States senator, for I be
lieved his views on the financial question
and on other great questions were more
in common with true republican princi
ples and the interests of the masses of
the people than were the views of Har
vey W. Scott, the self-constituted boss
of certain political organizations of Ore
gon ; and I further claimed that the ac
tions of the Oregonian in the present
political campaign, in bolting the regu
lar nominee of the Second congressional
district for congress, was not in keeping
with true republican principles, and if
carried out would disrupt and destroy
the Republican party, and that the ac
tions of certain conventions, manipulat
ed as they were by self constituted
bosses and bossism, was an insult to the
voters of the Republican party, and that
I, as a Republican and one who believes
in the intelligence of that party, did not
indorse the action of the Oregonian in
placing in the field a candidate to defeat
the regular nominee, who, as I consid
ered embodies all the trno principles of
an honest, true Republican, and who
had never proven a recreant to the trust
the people had confided in him during
his official career as their representative
in congress. I further said that had I
been a member of the last session of the
legislature, and looking at it as I did, I
should have voted for Hon. J. N. Dolph
for the United States senate. Not he
cause I agreed with him in his financial
views, but because he appeared to be the
choice of a majority of the Republicans
in that session of the legislature, and I
believed in the right of the majority to
rule. That now Senator Mitchell being
a candidate for re-election, and Mr.
Dolph having had his contest and being
defeated, I believed it but'rigbt and just
for him and" hia friends to allow Mr.
Mitchell the field at this time. That I
believed Mr. Mitchell fo be the choice of
a large majority of the people.
This, Mr. Editor, is about the sum
and substance of my talk to the people
at the meeting held at Dufur, which is
worrying the editor of the Oregonian so
much. I have been in Wasco county
and voted at every election since the fall
of 1876, and can say I believe my record
as a Republican is much better than Mr.
Harvey Scott's of the Oregonian, as in
that time I have voted for but one man
on the Democratic ticket, and that was
prosecuting attorney once; the editor of
the Oregoriian during the same time
having boited the nominations on sev
eral different occasions; at least we,
the people, believe so.
If the Oregonian has ever advocated a
measure that was to the best interests
of the masses of the people, I should
like to know when. In the present
course which it is pursuing in bringing
out the independent candidate, Mr.
Northup, if to the interests of the ma
jority of the voters of the Second dis
trict, or if they think so, let them read
the following, which I clip from the
Portland Chronicle of May 1st:
Now that H. W. Scott has succeeded
in bringing out Northup as an inde
pendent candidate for congress against
W. R. Ellis, the regular Republican
nominee, the Chronicle will concentrate
all its efforts to defeat this man North
up. A more unpopular, arbitrary and
conceited individual never walked the
streets of this city. There are no com
mon interests existing between him and
the people. He is in the field as a
candidate simply to gratify the over
loaded ambition of - Harvey Scott, who
is willing to sacrifice everything in or
der to disrupt the Republican party of
this 6tate. A more vile and degraded
action never took place': than . that of
bringing out this man Northup for a
position that, under the laws of God,
man and the iirand old Republican
party, he is honorably barred from ac
cepting. Not one honest Republican '
vote in the whole state will be cast for
this usurping offspring of Harvey Scott's,
who is merely Eeeking higher, honors
for himself at a sacrifice of party honor
and principle. The Chronicle will nee
every means at its command to defeat
this aepiring applicant tor unearned po
litical honors.
. In conclusion allow me to say - that
when Mr. Scott, or any, other individ
ual, saya that I have been pledging
mvself to this man or that man, they
are entirely off, and are making state- I
meets not true. I am a supporter of
John H. Mitchell for United States sen
ator, and hope to see him re-elected
because I believe he is the man best
fitted for the place and will represent
the people and their . interests. , I am
also a supporter of W. R. Ellis, be
cause he is a consistent Republican and
has been an honest, faithful represent
ative of the people and their interests.
If my position is worrying the' Orego
nian I cannot help i.t. I have always
fought and acted for myself, never al
lowing my brothers nor my family to
dictate my politics for me, consequent
ly cannot allow Harvey W. to;
Very respectfully,
W. H. Dufur.
