HOB ART New Jersey For Presidential Electors, T. T. UEER Marion County 8. M. YOBAN Lane E. L- SMITH Wasco J. F. CABLES Multnomah THE TWO HEN. In a general sense, of course, the present contest is one .between op posing parties, principles and poli. cies. The candidates stand respect ively for certain things that are to be voted upon, and choice is to be made of one oi the other mainly b reason of his identification in this representative capacity with one or the other set of general views and poses. Nevertheless, -practically - speaking, this fact is subject to some modification. The personality of a candidate counts for a good deal, particularly in the case of the high est office in the land, and 'voters are bound to give more or less consider ation to it in making up their minds bow to cast their ballots. A com parison between MeKinley and Bry an as individuals is unavoidable, Aside from their political opinions and affiliations, it is proper to take account of their personal qualities as related to their fitness for the great position to which they aspire. The functions of a president in-volve many requirements of mind and manners that do not directly pertain to the enforcement of a given polit ical policy ; and it is right that such things 'should be carefully looked after in the selection of the man who is to exercise the authority of that exalted office in the eyes of rfl the world. It is to be said of both of these two men that they have lived clean and upright private lives', and that no breath of scandal has touched either of them through the searching processes of the campaign. But there are differences between them all the same. MeKinley is certainly the superior of Bryan in dignity, self-restraint and general propriety, He has more of yie bearing of a statesman, and suggests the idea of greater solidity and safety. Bryan is impulsive, emotional, and lacking in discretion and discrimination. He has made his canvass a kind of show, thus depreciating the soberness and importance of the matter; and it is easy to see that he is largely governed in his proceedings by ac cidental circumstances, instead of sound and systematic methods of thought and action. It is hardly to be doubted by any impartial ob server that MeKinley is preferable in point of level-headedness and the faculty of avoiding slippery places; and his long experience in public life is in itself a qualification that gives him a decided advantage. The country would never be appreben sive of any hasty or foolish conduct on his part as president, whereas there would be constant fear about Bryan in that respect. That fact is worth considering in a serious way. It has a positive bearing upon the question of choosing between the two men; and every good citizen should include it in his thoughts with regard to his duty as a voter. Mi. Reed states a great practical truth when he says that the riches of the country west of the Mississippi river, are worthless without money to develop them ; and the money for that purpose must, necessarily be bor rowed to"a large extent. Therefore, credit is a very important thing to the people of said section. They cannot borrow unless somebody is willing to lend; and nobody will lend them 100c dollars when there is the least danger that the debts 'thus contracted will be paid in 50c do! lars- EAST and SOUTH via rThe Shasta Route OF THE Southern Pacific Comp'y. Trains leave and are due to arrive at Portland. The truth about the Republicans who are going to vote for free 6ilver is that they have mostly been- in the habit of voting the Democratic ticket. Wheat, Cotton' and Silver. While Bryan is telegraphing the New York Journal that ' 'the cold standard makes a dearer dollar, a dearer dollar means falling prices, and falling prices mean hard times," the prices of wheat, corn and cotton are going up, and the price of silver, the supposed barometer of prices of farm products, is going down. MYSEft , SEPPy? JULY 3lff ' 6ZM--rf 66 - I I J0LYfft OCT.irr J JULY 24! f wHJ 7T0 Bryan must demodify bis farm prod net speeches or he will have to face snch hard questions as: "What about wheat and cotton? Are their prices go ing up in sympathy with silver or he cause of a shortage of foreign crops? What connection is there, anyway, be tween the prices of farm products and of silver? ' Of course Bryan can answer all snch questions. In faot, they are "dead easy" for a powerful' man who. can lift the price of all the silver in the world to twice its present height, but it is just as well to avoid, all unnecessary embar rassment. ' ' Xhyan'a "Bimetallism." Mr. Bryan still calls himself a "bi metallist," though he has never even attempted to answer the question : "In the -history of this country . has there ever been a time when gold and silver circulated upon equal terms as full legal tender money, with the-'mints open tc the free and -unlimited coinage of both?" There never was snch a time. Free and unlimited coinage at 16 to 1 has never, in any country, at any time, given a bimetallic currency. Mr. Bryan is a silver monometallist in fact, what ever he may think himself to be in the ory. If a merchant' marks up his prices and people refuse to buy, he still has his, goods. If a workingman-undertakes to mark up his wages and employers de cline to pay, where is he? What intelli gent wage earner can vote for the higher prices of cheaper money and trust to luck' to increase his wages proportion ately? ' Rev. I. D.
