Mr. Hani'i Speech.
Hon. Wilson T. Home's . speech last
evening was a good one for the regular
nominees and the platform and princi
ples of the Republican party.' The at
titude of Harvey Scott in the Oregonian
and its bolter candidate for congress,
Judge Northupi was .shown up in . a
truer light than by. any other speaker
who has thus far addressed a Dalles au
dience. , The platforni. of the. Republi
can party in 1892, and again in 1894 (by
the way formulated by Harvey Scott
himself) pledged the party to a bimetal
lic standard, recognizing silver and gold
eqnally, and maintaining both metals
on an equality. . This was similar to the
Minneapolis platform- . . .
After the election of 1892 which re.
suited, in electing Cleveland the Ore
gonian published an editorial predicting
the bard times that would follow, and
representing the reason therefor. . The
reason given .was solely the abandon
ment of the principle-of protection. No
prophecy was ever truer. Now the Ore
gonian claims the money proposition is
responsible for the hard times and that
they will continue until the., principle of
sound money is established. . As for Mr.
Hume, he claimed .to more truly repre
sent the Republican party by the prin
ciples of protection and bimetallism. .-'
j. Taking , up Mr.- Northup's candidacy,
he called attention to' his statement that
he had consented to the use of his name
by his friends, who wanted a representa
tive of their views on the money ques
tion. Mr. Hume' reviewed the charac
ter of many of those friends who signed
the petition, and if a man is to be judged
by the company he keeps,' Mr. Nirthup
is more or less smirched. -The first man
who came' under the scrutiny of Mr.
Hume was a murderer, the second was
No. 11,711 of San Quentin, who bad just
completed, a term in the penitentiary.
Two. or three more .were, forgers and
thieves, half a dozen were proprietors ot
third-class saloons and. .dives ,.in Port
land. And these were the men to whom
Northup, .would be under obligation if
he were elected. ;Mr. Hume closed with
an ' appeal, to vote the straight, ticket
throughout, r f , i ;A n . ij-ij ;
i- The speaker was introduced by Mr. E.
Jacobsen, of this city, who prefaced the
introduction, of.. Mr..,Hume: by ,,a, few
timely 'and1 well-chosen remarks con
cerning tbe need of the complete success
of the regular Republican, ticket. The

attraction?, the meetings at the armory
hall hod.buta slim chance last evening.
For these. reasons the audience was the
smallest that has attended these meet
ings, there ..being not more .than .150
preeent. Mr. Carpenter, before making
the announcement?, spoke of being sorry
to see tbe article in the paper rather re
flecting on him. Now Tbk Chbonici.e
does not wish to reflect on any one, nor
would we have Mr. Carpenter or any
one else go back on his word after it had
been given out, but. we would have all
lovers of this country, our beloved land,
remember that once a year there is a
day eet apart to keep in memory the
deeds of the brave, men who gave their
lives that we might have .a country.
We .... would . respectfully inform our
brother and all ptherp that that day is
the 30th of May and hope that in the
future be will remember that "all things
should be sidetracked" for that, and in
his expressed love for the old soldiers
living, we would , crave some of his re
gard for the, memory of those .who died
lor liberty.

at 8 o'clock. Tbe pastors will fill their
own pulpits on. Sunday morning. Sun

ing at the armory at 8 o'clock. Mr.
Wallace's solo "We Shall Know Him by
the Print of the Nails in His Hands,"
was very fine. Without scripture lesson
or even announcing, where the subject
was found, Mr. Carpenter said he wished
to speak about Elijah, one whom God
could trust, and then gave . a running
sketch u of that - old . prophet's . life, as
found in I Kings jcviii, dwelling on the
part where it. spoke of the. test between
the prophets of , Baal and .Elijah (God's
prophet) and the people., were reqoired
to choose who was the, true God, eo it is
for all to choose death or life. After
