However one may think as to whether
or not the McKinley club was organized
to distribute old shoes and ham bones to
the deserving poor, the Dispatch must
admit that if a number of individuals
desire to get up a parade and buy uni
forms it is their own business and does
not violate any law of morals or expedi
ency If it is all right to hire a band to
increase the efficiency ot a - political
demonstration it is all right to buy uni
forms, if tbe ones who pay for them do
so with their own money. Under the

have a right to smoke a cigar, wear" a

keep a continual lookout for objects of
charity. - -

PROTECTION 'WE WANT.
So
Says
Mr. .Kills, and tlie Financial
Issne Is Secondary.
Mr. Hurley, a' California orator, had
the audacity to hold an audience until
11 o'clock last night at tbe Baldwin.
Tbe fact that the door kept squeaking
for two hours, with departing auditors,
before he quit made no difference to Mr.
Hurley. He kept hammering away,
until tbe few who remained so long ab
solutely showed signs of an open revolt
before he shut down his talking machine.
It is a marvel bow anyone remained,
and shows the remarkable tolerance of a
Dalles audience. His 'climaxes al
most all ended in a whisper of an inaud
ible gutteral tone, the last chance of de
tecting his words being destroyed by bis
making a loud noise with his hands,
clapping them together or pounding on
the table. He spent the latter part of
his address in attempting to prove tbe
oft-repeated charge, originating with tbe
Popnlist party, that the act ot 1873 was
a crime. He read sections of . that act
proving it to his own satisfaction, and
quoting tbe alleged utterances of dead
men. He did not point to one living
man ' that composed, tbat congress, nor
one living Republican statesman of tbe
present day cotemporaneous with .that
time, who can yet be approached on this
side of the grave, and declare that it was
a crime. The cause before the Ameri
can people today is oeing argued like a
case before a jury, and the testimony tbe
great jury composed of the American
people demand is that of living witness'
es. The words of the defenseless dead,
without affidavit, and under past condi
tions that may not apply at the present
day, are not competent evidence.

C. C. Cooper, Record Keeper.. ' '
sHon. W. R. Ellis demonstrated to a
large audience last evening that he lacks
jieither for ideas nor words. He spoke
for an hour and a half with an impetu
osity of language not yet approached in
this campaign. Mr. Ellis does not pro
pose to sidetrack his Republican prin
ciples for a single. issue.. He repeated
what he said a few. months ago to the
McKinley club here that there are other
important issues to' maintain which are
of paramount importance to that of tbe
free coinage of silver. Referring to his
own action in having ' voted for a free
coinage measure, he said that made no
difference. He may have been wrong:
he was ofit here to apologize for every
individual act'by every individual mem
ber of the Republican party. He'inav
have been wrong in .the ' past. He did
not look behind, but before him. He
now - believed that free silver, coupled
with free trade, or what is - known as
tariff for revenue only would only sink
ns deeper in financial distress. "The
Republican party," said Mr. 'Ellis, ''is
tbe only party who are real bimetalists,
for the effort to maintain bimetalism. in
dependently of tbe great commercial na
tions is impossible. 'We are a grand na
tion, but we cannot stand 'against the
universe. ' Today we have a candidate
pledged to promote bimetalism, and the
platform provides the only feasible way
to get it, through international agree
ment. England, Germany and France
are now moving in tbat direction, and I
believe that the plan to obtain it
through an agreement Of the nations in
safe and can be accomplished. '
"Silver has been demonetized. . That
is a fact. There exists only a question
of when it was done. Some say it was
in 1873. But I say it was done in 1834,
for that was the effect of aJaw passed
through congress in that year. Tbe Re
publican party has done more for silver
than any party. In a single year it has
coined more than from the foundation qf
the government op to 1873.' I will
frankly confess that , at one time I
thought there was something in this cry
of 'the crime of 1873.' But after, a
studious application to tbe facts in tbe i
matter I found there was no evidence of
fracd. Nobill was more generally dis- !
cussed than was that bill. It 'was
printed thirteen different times and was
placed on the desk of every member of
congress.
The declaration for bimetalism in
the Republican platform is an honest
declaration, but to' try for' it independ
ently would be an experiment, a jump
In tbe dark; Senator Teller' himself
says that in his opinion it will bring
good times, but it will take twenty years
to do it. Are we In & condition to wait
twenty years for prosperity? r I affirm
that if we replace on the statute books
the laws that were written there in
1894, we will have" immediate 'pros
perity. :
"Bryan never said a word in 1892
about free eilver bringing prosperity.
He claimed then with his party it was
the tariff. But the promises of 1892
were bioken. When I passed through
the East recently I saw the closed fac
tories on account of the operation of the
Wilson bill,.
"It is not the amount of money, but
the activity of it. We want confidence
that when money is invested it. will
bring a return to the investor. We
want the factiories opened, then there
will be plenty of work at remunerative
wages." Mr. Ellis drove home the pro
tective argument by a simple illustra
tion. A sheep herder had told him . he
had saved $6 on the" price of , a woolen
suit of clothes in a year, but his wages
bad been reduced $20 a .month,' and had
therefore lost in that year 240 on wages.
"Four times have we tnrned from the
free trade policy to protection and every
time we have re-established prosperity.
Is it not safe, therefore, to return to it
for tbe fifth time in full confidence that
prosperity will return?"-
Notice to Observe Flag Day.
When you oiant to bay
To the Rf publican Clubs of Oregon:
Saturday, October 31st, having been
designated by Chairman Hanna, of the
Republican National Committee, as
".flag day," wjien all who intend to vote
for McKinley and Hobart and to main
tain the honor of the nation and tbe
perpetuity of its institutions, are re
quested to decorate their bomes and
places of . business with the national
colors and display the stars and stripes,
to remain until after election, the execu
tive committee of the Republican League
of Oregon urges Republican clubs in tbe
state to make a liberal display of tbe
national colors as requested ; also that
each individual member of the clubs do
tbe same and wear a bow or knot of the
national colors on tbe lapel of the coat.
It is the desire of the national commit
tee that all clubs get up as large a local
demonstration as possible, winding up
with a procession and speeches. This
should be the program in every locality.
