SHERMAN of New York. For Presidential Electors J. D. LEE, of Multnomah County F. J. MILLER, of Linn County A. C. MARSTERS, of Douglass County R. R BUTLER, of Gilliam County WHY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY Should be Successful. The following article, written by Mr. Frank Hendrick. of New York, was awarded $150 by the Republican Congressional Com mittee as the best article submit ted on the subject : I. THE PARTY OF EXPANSION. The Republican party was founded upon the principle that this gove cnment was established to protect for all times the rights and opportunities of every indi vidual from abridgement. That principle is successfully main tained. Through the. Civil War it consecrated a reunited cour. try to. free and equal American citizenship. It has kept the channels of Interstate Commerce open for all and, through the Na tional Banking System, the re funding of the National Debt, Resumption of specie payments, the Gold Standard and the Emer gency Currency Law, has sus , tained the life current of national integrity. As trustees of the National wealth, it has investigated min eral regions, surveyed soils, de veloped waterways, including the Panama Canal, irrigated deserts, conserved watersheds, and hus banded the public lands Pro tecting American labor by regu lating immigration and by taking at the Custom House, to pay American taxes, foreign capital's advantage from low wages, it has'preserved to American indus tries the home market of eighty millions of the world's greatest consumers and so laid the surest basis for American competition in foreign markets. Uniting capi tal and labor, thus, in a common posed conflict of State and Na tional law, the double prohibition of existence serving but to foster tneir development, it has never, in an attempt to destroy trusts, withdrawn, in Stata or Nation, the protection of law from prop erty, but has through Executive investigation and resort to the courts, resolved the conflict which had silenced law and given trusts existence. : - It has never proposed to ad vance American workingmen and American institutions by banish ing American industries and building up those of other lands, and scorned to insult labor with an illusory promise of immunity from law. Yet it passed the Pure Food Law and the Employ ers' Liability Law, secured equal accommodations o n railroads, 1 aidfd agriculture, created the Civil Service, established Free Rural Mail Delivery, reduced for- j eign postage, and increased pen- j s i o n s. Continuing naturally marked-out progress, it will keep its pledges of Tariff readjustment Currency Reform and develop ment of the Merchant Marine, and make the United States the financial centre as it has made it ' the industrial centre of the worlds in. THE CONSTRUCTIVE PARTY IT ORGANIZES THE NATIONAL WILL. In the evolution by which party government has become the extra-constitutional method of se curing responsibility to the peo pie, the Republican Party has be come their traditional represent ative and the Democratic Party the organized aspiration of indi viduals for power without - re sponsibility.

Call at Gazette job work.- Prof. E. E. Elliott, head of the Department of Agriculture in Washington State College, at Pullman, has investigated the so-called "Alaska" wheat, grown by Abraham Adams, at Julia etta, Idaho, which was heralded through the press of the entire country as a discovery which would' revolutionize wheat grow ing in the United States. The publication of these articles caused great excitement among farmers, many of whom had ar ranged to buy seed wheat at fab ulous prices. One farmer wrote to Prof. Elliott and offered him $5 for a single head of the wheat. Prof. Elliott is regarded as one of the best authorities in the United states on wheat. He visited the farm .- where the wheat is grown, took photo graphs and made a thorough ex amination. His report is that the wheat is a well known vari ety and of poor quality ; that the whole bombastic story pub lished is a fairy tale with hardly an atom of truth in it. .
