Newspaper Page TextTHE CORVALUS GAZETTE, TUESDAY, MAY i2, 1903. IN PARTY HARMONY-. Mr Reames says neither party tan abandon the Philippines. We think this is trne, for public sentiment has now so firmly crys- talized around the republican purpose, expressed immediately we acquired possession of those islands of retaining them that no party could survive the public odium of abandonment. But Mr. Reames is not able to give authoritative declaration of his party's purpose. The only authorative statement of demo cratic purpose on this subject is the last national platform cf that party. . This declared in favor of. abandoning the Philippines, per mitting the Fi ippinos to govern themselves as best they might, or, as a democratic statesman phrased it "go to the devil." We are justified in sa ing that abandonment of the islands is the democaatic purpose and that Mr. Reames, who is a democrat if anything, is in harmony with his tartv. . But the democratic candi late is in favor of unrestricted free trade with the Philippines. On this ooint he has no advantage over any one of Oregon's mem " bers of congress in either branch and none whatever over Mr. Her mann. The commercial spirit of tne Northwest desires free trade with the PhilioDines. The ma jority in congress deemed this in expedient at present, but made a large reduction in tariff rates in favor, of insular commerce. The republican policy will ulti mately give free trade with the islands bv retaining them and j - bringing them into closer rela tions with us. The policy of abandonment carreis us far in the other direction, would indeed take the control of Philippine trade quite out of our hands. It is easily seen how illogically our democratic candidate reasons, forced to it because as a good democrat he must 'stand on the national platform of his party and as a successful candidate he must secure republican votes. We are not concerne'd as to his securing republican support. , He is a democrat in harmony with bis party and will not be permit ted to assume any different char acter. Commissioners Court. Commissioners court met in regular session last Wednesday for the transaction of tlje follow ing business In the matter of a fill and cul vert on stage road leading from Monroe to Junction, near - the residence of C.

" Shows Coming Saturday. :- Saturday is circus day and the country lass and ber beau will be in town early" to enjoy with the city folks a gala" day of pleas ure and amusement. Norris & Rowe's Big Shows will be here. Since the days our childhood cir cus, when old Dan Rice was the brightest shining star in the con stellation of arenic celebrities, it has been' the usage of traveling shows to give a street parade and although Norris & Rowe have nothing of the old school "flavor" about their shows, but a thor oughly up to date aggregation, they still adhere to the- old cus tom and give a grand parade each - morning at 11 o'clock. The principal reason for continu ing the old custom is that while they, are giving their thousands of patrons a free treat they are, by displaying their magnificent animals and equipage, advertis ing their splendid performances and showing the wonderful growth of their aggregation since its former visit. The show is too well known to require a detailed description, suffice it to say they always bring a multitude of new acts and novel features which are equally enjoyable - to old and young.
