THE M'KINLEY CLQB TONIGHT
Let ever' man in The Dalles who
believes that lawlessness should be
restrained whenever it interferes with
the operations or property of the
national government; eveiy man
who believes that this government
cannot and should not attempt to
coin all the silver in the world into
dollars worth 53 cents and allow the
holders thereof to force them as pay
ment upon those from whom they
received dollars worth 100 cents;
every man who believes that the in
dusties of the American people
should be encouraged; every man
wno has suffered from the unwise
legislation of the past four years ;
every man who desires to see an ex
perienced and capable statesman
elected to the presidency, come to
the courthouse this evening and lend
his aid and encouragement in the
opening event of the campaign.
Let this organization of a McKin
ley Club be so positive and strong,
that the Republicans elsewhere and
everywhere will be assured that Ore
gon will cast its electoral vote for
JIcKinley and Hobart.
The Dalles has a single industry
which every year affects the price of
all wheat marketed at The Dalles,
The Diamond Flouring Mills, whose
product sells in all markets at the
highest figure, and which consumes
from 50,000 to 75,000 bushels of
grain annually, selects its wheat from
the large amount marketed here.
" taking only the best ; and for the
privilege of this selection pays from
one to two cents more per bushel
than the warehouse price. This fact
has a constant tendency to pull the
market price up, and, without ques
tion, does raise the price among all
buyers here. The same fact would
be true as to a woolen mill, could we
once get a good one established. . "We
pay no more for our flour indeed
. we pay less than when we shipped
it from abroad, although the farmer
gets more for his wheat. A he same
would be true as to woolen goods
The farmer, selling direct to the
manufacturer, is encouraged to raise
the best possible grade, so 'as to sell
to the mill and; get the highest prise
The- same principle is applicable
possibly not so' apparently so, but
just as truly to the industries of
the nation. . The nearer the producer
comes to the consumer or manufact-
uier, the more ready is the sale, the

"I am in favor of the free and un ;
limited coinage of pig iron at the
ratio of 16 to 1 with gold, by the
United States a!one.
It may be urged by some who do
not understand the subject that 'a
free coinage act for iron would not
raise its price to a tatio of 1 6 to 1
with gold.' To them I reply : 'The
stamp of the government and the
'legal tender qualities' of the iron
dollar would instantly make the pig
iron the same as the mint value.
'For who would part with an ounce
of this precious metal for anything
less than the mint value?' Stew

In 1871 the United States had 52,-
920 miles of railroad, which paid
annual dividends aggregating $56,-
456,681. In 1894 we had 181,454
miles paying annual dividends of
$85,278,669. The mileage increased
250 per cent; the dividends increased
51 per cent. The average freight
rates in 1894 were less' than one-half
the average freight rates in 1874;
and all very considerably less than
the average rate in Europe. This is
one of the "blighting, deadly influ
ences" of the bi-metallic system,
under which we have been living
since 1873; the system Bryan calls
the single gold standard.
A prominent sheepman of this county
yesterday declared that should Bryan be
elected, be should raise no sheep next
year, but would retire from the business
He is not the first man who employs
labor and uses large amounts ot capital
in hia business whom we have heard
make a like declaration. The election
of Bryan means' the withdrawal of cap
ital from active employment, and this
means the end of employment for those
who are now employed.
Almost the first utterance which es
caped Bryan's lips 'after his nomination
was : "This does not mean keep off the
grass, boys." His declaration and his
thought was that when he became the
highest executive officer of this great
nation the theories of Coxey, of Alt geld
and of Waite should be encouraged. If
he meant this, be is unfit to occupy the
presidential office. If he did not mean
it, he is a demagogue and all the more
unfit for the exalted office.
