f THE3 ELECTIONS
Next TuesTIay will be ilia Presiden
tial election. Before another issue of
the Lndepexdext wo will all le called
upon as citizens of this greac Republic
to expi-es3, by our ballots, our choice cf
candidates for that important ofiicc. It
is of more concern to. us -individually
and collectively how we"1 exercise that,
choice than at any preceding Presiden
tial election. ' -
Cfpon jthe suffrage of the voters, de
dejiends jhe prosperity in a measure
of fifty millions of our citizens. This is
of more importance to us all than any
previous election, because the issues and
principles involved are moro clearly de
fined than over before. Y c are called
upon to say whether a moneyed oli
garchy backed by corporate and concen
trated wealth shall own and control this
Government ; or whether the people
have rijrlns which these wealthy aristo
crats artj bound to respect. The issue
letween capital and labor h well de
fined in this casnpaign. We are called
upon to s.ij whether I112 : Dorseys, the
Bradys, Bess Slrp'urds, Dudleysj
Stsvcn Elkiris, and Hie mob with their
credit Mobiliers, whisky steals, star
route jobs and like frauds shall
longer speculate on the copies subsist"
ence andjrevel in! their iil-gotien gains,
while we all languish and suffer by the
hard times which the present policy cf
the Republican party entails upon the
country.
Democrats of Oregon do'your duty
and there will be'encuh honest Repub
cans join with you and all will bo well.
"Republicans, behold vjuv leader !
exclaims the enraptured organ. "What
a grand figure he presents at the head
of your column, marching now to vic
tory ! Is it strange that ho is called
the Plumed Knight of the army of
American progieas T iswhat the New
York Tribune says of Blaine .
ttw, M says the World, "behold him
meaking out-of Ohio with a cry of
victory on his lips and only a minority
cfall the votesfollowing at his heels !"
Behold him as he hurries by West
Virginia, where he has been making a
gallant fusion raid, pelted by a three
fold Democratic majority !
Mark him as he appeared on his
knees tefora Mulligan begging for
mercy !
'See him performing the dramatic
trick of falling cn the church steps
from a sham sun-stroke in order toes
cape facing Eppa'Hunton and his com
mittee S
f Xjook at him as he sneaks'! into the
Senate covered with ugly tattoo marks
to escape expulsion from the House !
See the "grand figure he ,piesents"
as he hides his Hocking Valley shares
under his coat and displays the brand
o "continental liar" on his forehead !
Contemplate him secretly intrigu
ing to defeat Folger in the: State ' of
NjwJYorkand then'writing a cringing
letter to the betrayed Secretary beg
ging his support 1
.Behold what" a "grand figure of
proportions" ho presents as he writes
a beggar's petition to "My Dear Mr.
Fisher" for a false character, and adds,
VBurn this letter !"
How noble helooks as he indignant
ly dashc3 off his blustering Uelegram
announcing his determination to de
fend the honor of his family with his
life if nscessary, and follows it up with
a private and confidential letter to the
Jersey Money-Bay, laying bare the
sscrets of his private life ;
What a bold and independent
Plumed Knight he appears as ho blar
neys with Patrick and "Prosts" with
Hans for the Irish and German votes, ;
How.' dashing and fearless in his
chivalry he shows, as he crawls to the
polls through a rain-shower to avoid the
women aud dodges thy Prohibition

What vender that tha Tribune
should burst into a glow of entusiastic
twadle over this gorgeous, gilt-gingerbread
Knight of white feather,
'Tlire must be a change at Washing
ton !
'ilERepnblieans boasted that they
wouTdcarVy West Virginia vrith. their
Republican Greenback combination,
bat that noble. Sia.te stood them off
handsomely by a large majority.
Blaine's high, tariff" views and favorit
ism to monopoly and rpecial interest is
ftt wanted there,
1 -"Stick t3 tha Party"
"Stick to tlio party." "Yes," they
cry, "stick to the party ;" let them rob
you of 1 land and products; let them
mako yqu, beggarsf and slaves ; let thi?
whole, broad, grain, fertile and glori
ous Northwest be delivered over in fee
simple, with all the products and all the
inhabitants -thereof, to a railroad com
pany! j Toil and-sweat, strive and.
save, suffer ami starve, to produce three
bushels of "rain that two niav be given
for freight charges to the railroad.
But for God's sake never desert the
l,sirt& j The party. Wha; party
The railroad party. Tlni land grant
party. The party that has granted
270,000,000 of your land and mine to
corporations, and allowed them nay
encouraged them, .to charge you and I
four prices for every piece of service
they perform. The party that snid in
it3 platform that it favored forfeiting
when that verv same dav its rt-mesen
tative.s in Congress the raiiroauV
representatives and net the people's
were to a man opposing forfeiture and
assisting by cvej'y device in their
power in robbing the people of their
sacred; heritage.' - ' '
The railroads have two representa
tives who make their home in Oregon.
One of ihem has been here the other
is comincr. It is a wonder that thev
dars j show their faces among the
farmers of Umatilla county.
It is the same battle i:i the Nation
ro-day as in Washington Territory.
We don't care to sav a word m praise
of tho! Democratic party as such or in
condemnation of tlie Republican party
as such, in this art'clc. We are talk
ing aUout the people's parry, or if you
please, the farmeis' parly, and tlie rail
road party. But tlio Democratic paily
did declare for forfeiture in Congress,
and the Republican Senate killed every
forfeiture bill. The Democratic party
declared for forfeiture in Washington
Territory, and 03 Republican, party
declared for th-S. railroad. Oregon's
true representative, J.tmes H. Slater?
a Democrat, did introduce, work for,
and vote for forf n ture bills ; while
Do!rli and George, Republicans ex
posed lijoa.. Don't blame us for facts.
Theyl are matters of record, and you
can not 'escape from them. Will you
ignore thee, and even though you ars
Republicans, vote tor a railroad party 1
The higher the office to be filled, and
the .broader the contest, the greater
will be your influence, n cno side or
the ether. Sir. Blaine is a tit candidate
of tlie railroad party. Not ? single
vote' of his can bo found on record in
favor of the people, Evory time it has
been on the sid of the railroads. Not
once, in all his twenty-five years of
brilliant political pyrotechnic display,
has this candidate ever lifted his voice
in defense of the people's rights against
the encroachments of corporate power.
East Orc-.'onian.
The following presents the ludi
crous side of the campaign, and illus
trates how a good joke will 'escape the
eagle eye of a newspaper man : James
D. Warren, editor of the Buffalo Com
mercial, who is rriak'ng a vigorous
campaign in behalf of Blaine for the
Presidency, recived a poem, which
upon its face was full of praise for the
Republican candidate, and was accepted
and printed in that journal. Special
attention was also called by the editor
to the beautiful tribute. Upon a care
ful reading cf the same after it was in
print, it was discovered that it was
nothing else than an acrostic, which
those who read might understand that it
was their bounden duty to "vote for
Cleveland." The editor's consterna
tion and indignation upon the unearth
ing of the fraud mr,y be better imag-
ined than described. '
It cost the Republican party at least
0300 for every majority vote thy re
corded in tho. Ohio election. It is a
dearly bought- victory aud shows
clearly the drift of public opinion in
the United States. Tlie country is
evidently for Cleveland r.nd Hendricks
so solidly as to bo beyond the reach of
corrupting gold. Blaine's magnetism,
which was so strong as to draw negro
voters to Ohio from Kentucky and
Virginia, leaves that State 8,000 nearer
the hands of the. Democrats than it was
at the October ejection in 1SS0. Let
i
the Republicans crow.
Roeixsox, the Republican candidate
for Secretary of Stale in Ohio, has been
elected by a plurality of 11,321, but
lacked 1,200 votes cf securing a ma
jority: This out of a total vole cf.
780,000 writes Ohio as a very doubt
ful State for the Presidential election.
In Weht Virginia, where Blaine also
made speeches, the Democratic majori
ty increased 2,000 over the wajoiity
for supreme judge in 1883, and over
3,000 above that given for Hancock in
1880.
iTiiE Democratic governor of West
Virginia has been elected by over 10
000 majority, a gain of 7,000 over the.
majority for supreme judge last year.
The bosses o the grand old party of
high moral ideas are having a great
deal of trouble in New York. John
O'Brien, who controls the machine in
the city, does not want Blaine, and
put up a local ticket with a view of
trading. The leading Blaine men saw
through the" trick and witdrew from
the convention. The brethren are now
in a kettle of hot water.

Tha llepubUcan party, duriiir iti ky.d, its
stolen, and its boiuiit tenurjj -f power, l:a
stealiiy decayed in moral ciiara-.-t'r aud po'ithai
capacity. Its platform promised arc now a list of iu
past failures. It demands tha restorati n of our
n ivy; it has sBaiioered hundreds of millions i t cre
ate a n ivy that docs not xi.;t it calls upon Congress
to remove the hur.H is under which Mr.uriean shipping
has been iicprcs.jc.1; it ' i.npjoc.l a il has c i.ilinu.-d
those burdens.
It prfcses the policy of reserving the publio lands
f -or snia'd holding by actual settlers. It h is kfivon
away UiJ peoples horita ji til! now few railroads,
and 'liou-resideut aliens, ladivi.l;ri!a:id CorpVTite. pos
sess a larg r area than that of all our f irms between
the sea". It prof esse a prc.Vronce for free institu
tions; it organized and tried to lega'.iza a control cf
'.State ole it ions by federal troops. " It jrnfas.-rs a de
sire to clevatf labor; if has subjected American', work
iiigrneii to the coiijcAit!on of convict and imooried
contract labor. It professes gralitudc to ali who
were disabled or died in the war, leaving widows snd
orphans; it left to a Democratic House of Ucpreseu
t.itivjs the Prst effort to equalize both bounties a-d
pensions, ts proffors a pis Ige to correct the irrcgu
Uritiasof our tariff; . it created and has continued
them. Its ovn tariff commission c-nfc.-wed ti t reed
of more than 2t per cent, reduction; its Conivt-u-sgave
a reduction of lc.5s tha i 4 per cent, it professes tho
protection of American iiraiuf.icturer ; it has nub
jecte 1 them to an increasing Hood of manufactured
goods, and a hopeless compet tion vvith manufactur
ing nations, not one of which taxes raw material. It
professes to protect all American industries; it has
impoverished many to subsidize a few. It professes
the protection of American labor; it has depleted the
returns of American pgriculturc, an industry followed
by half our people, it professes the equality of all
men before the law. Attempting to fix the saitus of
colored citizens, the acts of its Congress were overset
by the decisions of its courts. It- "accopts ur.ew the
duty of leadinir in the work of progress and reform;"
its caught criminals are permitted to escape through
contrived delay s or actual connivance in the prose
cution. Honeycombed with corruption, outbreaking
exposures no longer tdiock its moral seise. Its holi
est mc:flber3, its indepe lent j ournals, no longer main
tain a successful contest for authority in its counsels
or a veto upon bad nomihatons. That change is nec
essarily proved by an existing surplus of more th, in
S100,()':0,ijOO, which has yearly been co'dcc'ed from a
Miffeiinir people. Unnecessary taxation is unjust
taxation.
We denounce the Republican party forliavinfailed
to relieve the people from crushing war taxes which
have paralyzed business, crippled Industry and de
prived labor of eirplcA irent and of just reward. Toe
Denneraey piedoi itself to purify tho adivun
istratioo "from corruption, to retire econ
omy, to revive respect for law and to re
duce taxation to the lowo-tliioitcoiisi-itcatwi;!) a due
regard to the preservation of the faith of the naiion,
to its cra iitorj mi ! pensioners; knowing full well,
however, that kgisiai-ion afieeting the o"cuatio:is
of the people "sbbuid be caution and conser
vative in method, not in' ahem" of pubiic
opinion, but respwiiMve ,o its demands, the lemo-r-ratic
party is pledged t-V revise the turilf In a spirit of
iairoe?s to all ii teicsrs; but in makh-jr a reduction in
taxes, it is ;i..t proposed to injur? any domestic indus
tries but rather to proni' te t hoir bc-a l.th.v growth. From
the fo'.ui .Litis of this Goveniineiitt'bs taxes collected
at the Custoni-Jioaae 1ive been t he chu t source of
l-'cJcr.d nneuue. Such they iau;-t continue to be.
Moreover, nv.iiy industries have comu to rely upon
legislation fori successful coniinuaiicc, so that any
cl"ange of law mut be at every step regardful of labor
and cuyiiud thus involved. The process of reform
must tsa suliject iu its execution to this plain dictate
of justice -All taxation shall be limited to tlie re
quirement;; of an economic-el. Government. Tic;
necessary reduction in taxation can and must be af
fected wilh-iiit sicpriving American labor of theabii

demand that Federal taxation shall be exciu.dvely for
(ubUe purpose-, an 1 si. .11 not excee 1 the needs of the
roveri'.mcut t conoinii aliy admini.-u-re.!. The 5-vKti-m of
direct taxation, k iow.i as the "internal revenue," is
a wirtaN.und fo iong as 'he law continues the money

relief of the people from remaining burdens of the

paviiient of such pensions as Coiicrcs-i m iv from time

We fav -r en Amci 'uan eiuincntal poiicv, based
uofm more inri'.mtc commercial and jolitieal relations
with the fifteen si.-ter !tc,iubies of N.rtb, Central and
South Amtrb-.i. bi t. entangling alliances with none.

dc-aiin"s with the people, to mete out equal and exact
justice to all citizens, of whatever nathity, race, col
or or persuasion, religious or pooticaf.
We believe in a frej biliot and a. fair count, and
we recall to the memory of the people the noble
stru""de of the Democrat's in the forty -fifth ami Kor-tv-sixth
Congresses, by which a reluctant republican
onnosition w." compelled to assent to legislation
making evervv.hcre illegal the presence of troops at
the polls the conclusive proof that a IXmiwiatic
administration will pi-eserve l.bcrty with order. The
selection of Federal officers for the. Tcrr.torics Should
be restricted to citizens Ore viously resident thereof.
We opHwe sumptuary Jaws, which vex the citizens
aud-intefera with individual liberty.
We favor an honest civil service reform in compen
sation of all United States offices by fixed salaries, the
aeparati'm of Church and State, and the diffusion of
free oiacarion by ciramjn school.;, so that every chili
ia the land may be taught tfce rights and duties of
citizenship. I
While we favor all legislation which "will tnd to
the ei.juita.He distribution of proiJerty, to the preven
tion of monopoly, and to the strict enforcement of
individual rig-hts against corporata abuses, we hold
that the v eliare of society depends on a scrupulous
regard for the rights of property as defii.ed by law.
We bclievb that labor is best rewarded, where it is
freest and most enlightened. It should be fost red
and cherished. We favor the repeal of all the law
restraining the free action of lj,bor,and the enact
ment of laws by which labor organizations niay be
inerea-Sed, and of al! such legislation as will' tend to
enlighten the people as to the true relations of cap
ital ainl labor. ;
We believe that the public lands ought, as far as
possible, to be KeMtra-j homesteads fr actual tettler?;
tr.at all unearned lands heretofore mmrovioently
granted to railroad -corporations by the R:ublicau
party should be restored to the public domain, and no
