PAXTON, of Multnomah County, TILMON FORD, of Marion County, J. C. FULLERTON, of Douglas County, W. J. FURNISH, of Uma tilla County. THE PEOPLE. On his recent trip to the south west, Gov. Roosevelt was every where greeted most enthusiasti cally by the people. When he called on President McKinley at Canton he was warmly greeted by the entire populace, and said: , "My fellow citizens, I thank you most cordially for the way you have come forward to greet me. . I know that none of you, least of all my old comrades here, will grudge my saying that I thank particular ly those who weat the buttons that show that they fought in the great war (applause). "I cannot say how I appreciate this, coming as it does from the townspeople of the President, who is now in a particular sense my leader and whom I shall follow and support with , every , ounce of strength that there is in me. And, at least, there is to be said lor our side that we know what we be lieve. In Kansas City they have had a little ' difficulty - in finding out what they believe. : . I see by the papers that they had some difficulty, extending finally to a vote of 26 to 24, in putting in free silver. Now, we believe with all our faith in a dollar with a hundred cents. Apparently, they have 52 per cent of faith in a 48-cent dollar, MR. FENTON'8 IDEA. Hon. W. D. Fenton, of Portland, is a pretty well-known man. He got his start in old Yamhill, and has always been a prominent na tional Democrat. The Democrats of Oregon once se) toted him as their congressional standard bearer, and he did honor to their cause. Speaking of the national candidates, Mr. Fenton says: "The Democratic platform adopt ed at Kansas City I believe ib sub stantially as radical upon most questions as the platform of '96, The only new position taken, as I understand, is a strong declaration in favor of our withdrawal from tht Philippines. I have not changed my position upon public questions, I stand where I stood in 1890, and upon the so-called new issue of abandonment of the Philippines I am with the oountry and the administration, and expeot. to support the Republican candi dates. It seems to me that the cry of imperialism , and the fear of a standing army is insincere, un warranted, and in the face of the patriotio sentiment of the country. This coast, in particular, ought to answer the challange by an over whelming majority in favor of Mc Kinley and Koosevelt ' REMEMBER THE MAINE. A dispatch from Canton, Ohio, says A statement by Judge V. D. Day, pres ident of the Paris Peace Commission In his address here at the celebration of Independence day, has been construed by many to mean that the United States government held Spain responsible for blowing up the Maine. When questioned today about the paragraph, Judge Day said he meant in his speech just what the words said Asked for a direct statement whether the government did not regard Spain as the party responsible for the destruc tion of the Maine, he repeated that the words of Wednesday's address meant nothing more nor loss than they read. He gave the following additional state ment on the question. "I do not think it requires elabora tion. As is well known, the destruction of the Maine was one of the causes that led to the war. Undoubtedly, while anchored at a pier choeen by Spanish officials, the Maine was blown up by the explosion of a mine outside of the vessel.' Just who did this has never been demonstrated, so far as I know. It must have beeu by some one who knew the looation of the mine and had access to the means by which it was exploded." Judge Day then quoted a statement from the protocol. All honor to the finance committee and Treasurer Hunlock for rustling the Fourth of July funds, and special credit is due the,, executive committee for so judiciously expending them. The latter committee, wise'y selected by Chair man Judge Bartholomew, consisted of g. P. Garrignes, Oscar Minor, U. W. Swaggart, Jas. Hart and J. B. Beal.

Bryan of Nebraska as its candi date for president, and Adlai K. Stevenson, of Bloomington, 111., for vice-president The latter gentleman filled that office daring Cleveland's second term. Qrady nominated Hill, of New York, and everybody wanted him, but Hill would not have the nomi nation, and positively declined to have it pushed upon him. The regret of the Oregon dele, gation is preat that Hill was not willing to be nominated. They explain Hill's declination on the hypothesis that he wants to be in trim for the presidency in 1904, and Judge Bennett 1 inclines to think that to force a vice-presidential nomination upon a man who has long been considered in con. sidered in connection with the first place would be an act of extreme gracelessness. The delegation ad. mitted the plausibility of the hypo thesis that Croker and Hill each view the democratic ticket as a forlorn hope this year, and hence the desire of Croker to sacrifice Hill and Hill's determination not to be slaughtered. WAR IN A SHANTY. London, July 6. The Colonial Office has received a dispatch from Gov. Hodgson, of the Gold Coast Colon', saying that owing to the non-arrival of the relief column at Atekwaute, June 2G, and - the re duction of the food supply he has decided to push through the rebels and has deceived the enemy re. garding the route followed. The column suffered great privations, ;but tne loss was only six men ' killed and several wounded. .' NATIONAL -POLITIX. Fouryears ago McKinley car ried Maryland, Delaware, Ken- ucky and West Virginia. Eepub- lcans of conservative temper ao not expect to win these states in November, save West Virginia, says The Oregonian. Delaware may be carried if Republicans rec oncile their differences. These oeses will be more than made np by the probable return of Kansas, Washington, Wyoming and South Dakota to the Republican electoral column. . Bryan must have 224 votes to be elected. The solid South will give him 112 votes, which, with the 34 votes likely to come from west of the Mississippi, will bring the total to 146. ; Ken tucky, Maryland and Delaware would add 24 to the 146, making 170, or 54 short of the number re quired to elect. To gain this nuov ber, the Democrats must carry New York, with 36 votes, and In. diana, with 15, besides one other state; or Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, or some other equally . formidable combination of three or four north ern states east of the Mississippi. The Democratic fight will -be in New York, Indiana, New Jersey, Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan. In all these states McKinley will lose something of the so-called "independent vote," something af the gold Democratic vote, and he is threatened with a serious loss of the German Republican vote, which, while still earnest for the gold standard, is said to be opposed to McKinley as the executive of the so-called "imperialist" policy. It is altogether too early to deter mine how many of these independ. ents, gold Democrats and Republi can Germans are sufficiently hostile to McKinley and the Republican party to vote for Bryan, standing on a platform of dishonest money, state socialism and ultimate an archy. Not many, it may be, will stand up at the last moment and be counted for Bryan. , Nevertheless, the fate ot the election will be decided, as it was in 1892 and 1896, by the working. men's vote. If the workingmen generally are disposed to be con tent with the high degree of pros perity that has been maintained under the present Administration and rule of the Republican party, Mr. Bryan will be disastrously beaten in every northern state east of the Miisissippi. Naturally the workingman's vote would be cast for the policy of expansion and the upholding of the American flag. A Life and Death Fight. Mr. W. A.
