THE CORMLIS GWETTt. TUESDAY AUGUST' 28, 1900. Since Mr. Bfryan has become wealthy the "income tax" plank has been eliminated from the democratic platform. While Mr. Bryan is quoting from the sages, and telling the laboring man that his employer is doing nothing to earn his in come, it might be well for him to consider the wise words of Franklin: "The eye of the mas ter will do more work than both his hands." A few weeks ago the associated press dispatches announced that anarchists had threatened the life of McKinley, and the demo popic press immediately declared that the report was started by Mark Hanna to secure votes. Now comes the announcement that Bryan is to be the victim of an assassin. Jones led right back at Mark. The boy orator's explanation, that he favored the ratification of the treaty of Paris, because it "placed him in a better position to wage a successful contest against imperialism than he would have been had the treaty been rejected," reminds us of the physician whe always drove his patients into fits, because he could cure fits. Senator Jones, of Arkansas, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, is one of the directors in the American Cotton Company, a corporation with 300 plants in the cotton states and controlling the round bale process, says the St. Louis Crlobe-Democrat. The Ameri can Cotton Company is shown to have an omnivorous appetite for smaller concerns and for mon opolizing an important industry. Senator Jones is not disposed to let the Tammany ice trust put on airs over the western branoh of the democratic party. His cotton bale trusts is one- of the fattest monopolies yet taken into the courts. Hon. Charles Denby, of Indi ana, ex-United States Minister to China, and a life-long demo crat, has announced his uaten tton of supporting McKinley. In a public letter entitled "Bryan's Attitude Towards the Philip pines," he says Bryan had the power to defeat the treaty with Spain, but preferred to let it ere ate an election issue. In con elusion he says: "I am not de fending the republican party in this article, but I am defending William McKinley. He has been subjected to more abuse than any president ever was and he has deserved it as little as any one ever did. In the most diffi cult period of our history he has proved himself equal to all the demands upon him. He has acted with an eye single to the good of the country. The war with Spain was not the presi dent's seeking, but he met the issue with courage. In diploma cy he displayed qualities of the highest order, and in military affairs he was remarkably suc cessful. He eminently deserves re-election." River Conditions. The water in the Willamette is now lower than it has been for years and it is reported that when the water is turned through the locks at Oregon City the Willamette Falls go out of ex istence for the time being. Capt. Galbraith, of the Mathloma, is reported as doing excellent work at Lambert's in building wing dams, etc., and is materially im proving the condition there. The channel is becoming deeper and it is said that there are now xo inches of water at this place, which makes it less difficult for boats to pass over the bar at this point. From Lamberts, Capt. Galbraith will go to Eldridge bar, where he will commence work that is sadly needed. The improvement of the Willamette river is of interest to every resi dent of the valley, as it is one of the main arteries of commerce, on the waters of which is yearly floated to market thousands of dollars worth of produce. Few people realize the importance of keeping the Willamette open and in best possible condition for navigation. Bicycle for Sale. Lady's bicycle, new, for sale cheap.
