Tbe results of the republican clnb oon- veotieo seems tn be worrying tbe Ore gonian, A torian and Pendleton Tribune. For papers that profess tallest satisfac tion witb tbe harmonious gathering, tbey exhibit a surprising anxiety to "ex plain" that tbetr political favorites were not "drowned." And tbianooneolaime. Tbe convection was not held to "down" any one, but to help the repnblioan party. If Mr, MoOamant lost prestige it was bis own fanlt, and as for Henry MoGiun, the oountry delegates quote the old saying, 'a bad egg oannot be epoiled." Tbe letter of Hon. 0, W. Fulton, pub lished in the Oregon fan last week, was a manly and straigtforward declaration and worthy of oarefal consideration. Many republicans at one time believed tbe tree ooinage of silver to be of bene fit to the country, and Mr. Fulton bas al ways stood on the party platform. Tbe republican national convention held at Minneapolis, in its platform, advooated the free and unlimited coinage of rilver, and tbe Oregon i an aivooated the plat form and supported tbe nominees. The Oregoninn has changed its views sinoe that time so have a large number of republicans. There was a time in the history of Oregon politics when tbe Ore gonian, under toe management of Mr. Soott, was a rank free trade paper. Tbe Oregonian has changed its views on that question. There was a time in tbe his tory of Oregon when Hatvey Soott lav ished his effections on a two-year-old heifer. As to whether be bas ohanged bis views on tbia subject we have not sufficient knowledge or information to form a belief, eto. The Oregonian treats Mr. Fulton's letter witb contempt, and infers that Mr. Fulton is not a good republican. Mr. Fulton is a better and truer republican than Harvey Scott ever was. Mr. Fulton bas always worked for tbe sucoess of the party, no matter who the candidates were, but witb Scott It is different. He is a repubiloan on con dition tbat be is tbe repnlioan bogs and diotator, otherwise he will attempt to defeat tbe party. Astoria Herald. Tbe Oregonian is doing untold damage to the repnblioan party in Oregon by its attempt to rend out of tbe party men who in former years may have misunder stood the money question and leaned a little toward the side of silver. Tbe Oregonian forgeta that time makes changes, and men's opinions are changed itb greater study and observance. There are many voters in Oregon, earnest believers in tbs gold standard, who four years ago did not ste theVlght so dearly and these men the Oregonian would he glad to hound from tbe party ranks. Are we not seeking converts, and glad to get them when they come? For wbat other purpose are speeohes made and editorials written? Yet whenever former silver mao wants to come back into tha repnblioan party, tbe Oregonian objects. It all comes baok to tbe aame old question tbe Oregonian is aerving Joe Simon and bia gang more than it is tbe republican party or tbe general wel fare. Eiobange. when the vote In the bonse on tbe Teller resolution, was first aouonnoed and tbe Kepoblioan learned tbat Oon greaaman Ellis voted against its adoption, we wrote him a letter congratulating him on tbe position he bad taken, although assuring bim that we bad do doubts as to bow be would vote after bia publlo declaration In tbis oity daring tbe last campaign. In answer to nnr letter, among other tilings, Mr. Ellis says: "I hope my friends bad no doubt as to what my aotinn would be in regard to thai matter, as I took particular pains to state in tny canvass throughout tbe ataU lo after tbe adoption of tha Hr. Loo Is platform, tbat I was in bearty ee cord witb tbat platform, and would do everything lo tny power to oarry ont tbe principles therein eounctaled, and every dap I am more and more ooovinoed that the principlrs therein promulgated are the true ones, and tbe aaooess of tbe re pnblioan parly depends on lite faithful carrying ont of tbe aame,' Tbis atatsrosnt from Mr. Ellis to qnite satisfactory to lb Itepablkan. It is al tbat any republican eonld eak for Congressman ElliS bears ao i eel lent reputation aa clean mao, and nbite be does not poaaees tbe gift of gab of Dude Le is of our sister state of Washington be knows bow to vote, and, as tha Or- gnniao says, "that ia all weeersaboat." I'eodletoo lUpoblioso, It Is question carrying witb il some peculation as to wbat iasna or issues tha populist party of Oregon to going before lbs people of tbe elate with in ins neil campaign. Aerxirding lo Dr. Fin brie, f folk souaty, a ltaditig popalial the frea silver fad la deed. This is tbs only tblog left, bowever, for that party to cling lo. Their "cheep" wheat and "cheap'' every other stents product cry to ao longer ac argument li present to tbe people. Tbe voters of Orrgoo are too well eoevltxed bow I i lletee lo cue ctatensaats. Oa every bead are to k seen erfnmeate agaiost tbetr fa-Is and lama Tbere to sol thing Uft It do bal lo relnro to Ihair "rsfrreudiirn," whinh was lost sight of so completely ia tbeir fraatio ff -rte U wio 00 Ida free silver fsoottoMU. IsmmI conditions ere ejfalosl tbot. f'rle eai Cusditivn arc co changed tbat no hope remains for them from tbat quarter. The same is said of the entire state. Tbere is not one con vincing argument left for them. Con ditions are so wonderfully changed from eighteen months ago tbat tbe honest voter will consider well his action before casting bis ballot with them again. Every oondition bas resulted absolutely reverse to the populist prediction, and in socb, people have lost faith. That their strength is weakening there is not a question. Tbere is not one thing for them to base an argument upon. Tbe stroke tbat has the paralytio effeot has been conceived in tbe tact that the oonn try is forging ahead in a business sen si' at snob, a rapid rate as to render all ad verse argument unconvinoing. Their bBttla ory will oertainly be "We want tbe offices ; they, at least, are desirable." Oregon Mist. Tbe gathering of populists, democrats and silver parties in separate .conven tions at tbe same place, savors too muoh of tbe dioker plan of "how muoh will you give" and "how much do you want."

Representative Tongue says tbat a correspondent in tbe Portland Oregonian bas done bis col league, Mr. Ellis, a rank injustice. He said to Tbs Tribune correspondent witb reference to tbe publication : "Tbe recent communication from 'Sound Money' in one of the Portland papers tbat oharged Representative Ellis witb having voted in favor of silver in supporting an amendment from the sen ate upon one of the appropriation bills for tbe support of assay offices, is very unjust. There was no question of silver involvbd. The existing laws with re lation lo assay offices provides tbat if gold is deposited at assay offioea tbe government pays all express oharges on snob consignment of preoioos metal. The tendenoy of tbe government at Ibia time is to close tbs exieting mints and center all its ooinage at tbe Philadelphia mint, In one of tbe appropriation bills recently passed tbe house oommlttes bad inserted a provision that tbe oost of transporting tbs bullion offered for ooin age should be paid by tbe owner of the bullion, Tbe senate struck out tbis provision, leaving tbe law as at present tbat ie, tbe government Is to pay transportation obarges. Representative Ellis, having In mind tbe interests of tbe gold miners of Oregon and other West era states, voted to sustain tbe senate amendment. The queetion of silver coinage was in nowise conoerned, as was obarged by 'Sound Money.'" The Greateat Dlsoovcry Yet. W. M.
