In the summer of '94 a carbuild-
er and some of his workmen had
la dispute -about wages. Because
of that dispute about a body of
railroad operatives, led by Eugene
V. Debs, attempted to stop the
traffic on all the railroads running
out of Chicago which would not
cease hauling the coaches of this
carbuilder. The result was an
outburst of violence. ' Trains were
sidetracked. Women and children
left half starved and burning with
thirst at way stations unable to
proceed on their journeys, men
traveled at the risk of their lives,
tracks were torn up and cars
ditched and burned, the mails
were stopped, train-wreckers piled
up destruction on roadbeds and
cut out the support of bridges, and
railroad operatives who in defiance

Hon. Beo Selling, of Multnomah
county, repabliOBn state senator-elect,
is in town oa business. All tho old
timers know Mr. Selling m member of
the old firm of P. Selling, formerly re
tailer! of Portland. In ye olden time in
the history of Morrow ' county many ol
oar people were wont to bay their sap
plies of Mr. Belling. The reputation of
this firm for square dealing and thorough
business methods suffered not when it
was merged into the wholesale house of
Akin, Selling & Co. This firm, however,
went out of business in 1893. Mr. Ben
Selling, who contributed so largely to
the splendid suooess of both firms, has
retained large interests in Oregon, and
indeed, in a certain sense, is as aotive as
ever. The opinion of snob men, (there
fore, on the politioal situation is worth
something, and with this idea in view a
representative of the Oezette sought Mr.
Selling yesterday for an interriew. It
was graoionsly granted.
'My mission to Heppner is purely a
business one," said Mr. Selling in re
sponse to on inquiry as to whether or
not it had any politioal significance,
Recently I have been o ailed to several
portions of our state on similar missions,
and as one interested in the outcome of
the present campaign I have taken
strict note of the conditions which sur
round us as stats, in a business as well
Bs a politioal sense. Indeed as an active
member of the county league of repnblio
an olubs I am thrown in oontaot daily,
when at home, with men from every part
of the state, and under the oiroumatanees,
and all in all, I have good ppportunity
to form an opinion as to what will be
the result of this election in Oregon. As
to the general result, why that is Just as
good as settled. McKinley will be our
next president.
"The depression which is upon us of
oourse began in '92 when it became evi
dent that sweeping obanges would be
made as soon as the new administration
assumed oontrol. The actual experience
wbioh we have gone through has proved
that our fears were not unfounded. But
I am in a position to know that the bare
possibility of Bryan's eleotion has tied
the oommeroial part of every community
band and toot, as it were. The avenues
of business lead in every direotion and

Extract from William MoKinley's
letter officially accepting the republican
nomination for the presidency, Aug. 27,
"The declaration of the republican
platform in favor of the upbuilding of
our merohant marine has my hearty ap
proval. The polioy of discriminating
duties in favor of our shipping, which
prevailed in the early years of our bis
tory, should be sgain promptly adopted
by congress and vigorously supported
until our prestige and suprsmaoy on the
seas is fully attained.
"We should no longer contribute di
reotlv or indirectly to the maintenance
of the colossal msrine of foreign oonn
tries, but provide a sufficient and com'
plete marine of our own. Now that the
American navy is assuming a position
oommensurate with our importance as
nation, a policy I am glad to observe the
republican platform strongly endorses,
we must supplement it with a merchant
marine that will give us the advantage
in both our ooastwise and foreign trade
that we ought naturally and properly to
enjoy. It should be at onoe a matter of
poblio policy and national pride to re
possess this immense and prosperous
trade."
