A PLAIN ISSUE.
That the Republicans of Wasco
county have n hard fiqht on their
bands is unquestioned. The action
of the Silver men, Populists and
Democrats nt their committee meet
ings last Saturday shows that each
party is favorable to fusion, as far as
this county is concerned, and will
put up but one conglomerate ticket
for the Republicans to oppose.
This determination to fuse causes
surprise to no one, as no logical rea
son exists vfhy these various elements
should not come together and merge
their single identities into symmetric
al unity. Theregular Democratic or
ganization, the Populists and the so-
called Free Silver Republicans have
all adopted the free and unlimited
coinage of silver as their fetich, and
no other idol do they know. Every
other consideration is swept away in
this nilchty rusk for cheap money
The tariff seems to be no longer an
issue, as it hrs been very forcibly
demonstrated to the country that a
moderate protective tariff is inclis
pensiblc to the maintenance of gen
eral prosperity. "With protection
and free trade out of the way and
settled to the everlasting glory and
credit of the Republican party, the
money question comes to the front
as the issue upon which the battle
must be fought.
It is well that the time has come
at last when we know what the issue
at stake is. In the last presidential
campaign it was supposed the nation
bad definitely decided that it wanted
nothing to do with cheap money ; but
it seems there are some people in
Oregon who have not read the re
turns.
To this state the eves of the coun
try are turned. Oregon leads the
waj, and it is for us to say whether
the cry of cheap money shall be
borne from the Pacific to the Atlan
tic, bringing devastation to business
wherever it is heard.
The Republican party in Oregon
accepts the issue gladly. The dec
laration made at the late Republican
League convention foreshadows what
the state Republican platform will be,
and when that is promulgated, no
one will be in doubt what it means.
The Republican party is for sound
money the gold standard, if you
will and no attempt will be made
to shuflle with terms.
The good things promised of our
Commercial Club when it was or
ganized give promise of being real
ized. There seems to be a decided
awakening among our business men
to the needs of the city, and the
Commercial Club furnishes the means
for discussing and planning how best
the continued prosperity of The
Dalles may be assured. The various
committees connected with the or
ganization are showing an energetic
spirit in peiforming their duties, and
are devoting time and patience m
investigating matters of importance
to the city, A great deal is gained
when we all realize that active, con-,
certed action is necessary before
anything of value can be accom
plished, and the Commercial Club is
the agency through which the com
mon interests may be served. This
is the decisive year in the history of
The Dalles. We must either make a
distinct advance in the way of ce
menting our trade relations with the
interior or lose our grip. Success to
the Commercial Club in all its un
dertakings, and may' it have the sup
port of every citizen. ,
The Dalles will make a reputation
tbis year for hospitality. In addition
to the regular conventions of the va
rious political particss, this city will
be the meeting place of the Grand
Aruij veterans nud the wool-growers
of the Noith'west. Wc came very
near getting the Republican stale
convention, and it is not unlikely we
may secure the state meeting of the
Democrats. Let them all come; wc
will see they are propel ly entertaii.cd.
Wc want a chance to show off our
new business blocks and tasty tesi
denccss, to say nothing of newly. dis
covered coal mines, which bid tair to
become a glltioring reality.
