How many of our merchants are like the
boy? They have goods for sale, but they
fail to .tell what is in their sack. If you

DEMOCRATIC MEETISG LIST E K51SG.
Addrcs of 'ol. Cornelini Tmylor t Occl
dental Hall.
Col. Cornelius Taylor, of East Port
land, nddreased a Democratic meeting at
Occidental hall last evening. The speak
er was introduced to the audience by A.
A. Cleveland.
Colonel Taylor began by saying that
he was not a soldier; be got his titlo in
boyhood, and in that particular ho was
like Major Blaine. He was, however, a
Democrat and would proceed to discuss
the issues of tho campaign. Ho would
ba candid and deal only in facts.
In selecting a president it was evident
that the selection was a matter of great
concern to the people of this country; it
was a matter that required careful
thought. He thought that this time the
people were in earnest. The Republi
cans had presented a candidate who was
WELL KKOWN TO THE COUJTTBT.
He would call attention to the record of
the Bepublican party. That party
claimed great honesty. How is this?
Why have they the assuranco to make
that claim? The questions involved dur
ing the early years of that party's his
tory are nil settled; they require no dis
cussion. While the war was successful
the Bepublican party could not claim
sole credit for that success. Democrats
fought on every battlefield and share the
glory of a common triumph.
After the war tho Bepublican party was
full of patrioLs and cursed with vampires
who wanted office and spoils. In July,
1867, as much territory was given away as
would make three such states as Ohio.
This was done by tho Bepublican party.
Up to tho present day they have given
away as much territory as is occupied by
the farmers between the seas.
He would now talk of local matters.
Corporations whon they get hold of prop
erty became a tyrant; they respect no
rights unless compelled to. They man
age to get all the power they want. With
the amount of land the O. & C. got the
road to Astoria should have been built.
They had got 2,000.000 acres. Tho Re
publican party had not the interests of
tho people when they gave away so much
land, though the peoplo had condemned
it, refused to forfeit it. Under the law
no contract can be called en
forced unless both parties have
complied with its provisions. Tho rail
road company had not complied with the
contract, therefore they had no vested
rights. George had amended the bill
sent by the Astoria 6hamber ot Com
merce, making a great difference. This
he had no right to do. All he need do
was to present the lull as sent him. As
far as that road is concerned the Bepub
lican party had kept it back and thus
worked a wrong on tho country. The
soil should be held as sacred as the liber
ty of the individual. An attack on the
soil is an attack on liberty. Such action
as that of the railroad company was sub
versive of liberty. In California the
railroad had nearly every presg, pulpit,
court, and many public men. They were
all creatures of tho railroad company.
Tho Union Pacifio and Central Pacific
R&ilroad companies got a munificent gift
from the government, without getting
any adequate compensation for such a
tremendous portion of the national do
main. During the last four years over a
million dollars was due in delinquent
tax-s to the stato from this corporation.
They bad captured the legislature and
had everything their own way down
there. The government was too prodi
gal and not careful enough of the her
itage of the people. They have even given
foreign corporations and syndicates
power to acquire 21,000,000 acres of land.
The Bepublican party was also lax in
the matter of finance. They have taxed
the nation too much, and ore collecting
too much money for the government.
For what purpose he didn't know. It
might be for protection. Mr. Hendricks'
idea of revenue of public taxes was to
collect enough taxes to pay the expenses
of the government and no more. On
Erotection tho spaaker thought that the
emocratic party would protect to the
extent that the interests of the people
demanded and no more. Justice is what
the Democratic party wanted. How they
were to get it ho didn't know. Their best
statesmen didn't know and couldn't
agree.
The great wealth of the country was
not due to the Bepublican party. Blaine
had figured up some fine statistics: but
protection
HAS NOT BEKKHTKD
the workingman. The Republicans had
not cared for the workingman. They
have Jones at the head of the national
committee. He had introduced pauper
labor in this country. That is the kind
of a man he is, and is a specimen of the
party. It is a matter of record that
while Republicans were asking pro
tection, other men were hiring contract
labor in Europe. The Republican plat
form was not in accordance with its
actions. Their record on the Chinese
question proved that. Blaine was all
right on that topic, but where was his
party on that question? They were not
true to the interests of the working peo
ple of this country. Why did they put
the notorious Logan up for second place
on the national ticket? To capture the
electoral vote of the Pacific coast, and
for nothing else.
He wished to call the attention of his
audience to the fact that after looking
over the record of the party was found
nothing but repulsive monopolies, repul
sive millionaires, and demoralized forces.
It was only a repetition of former histo
ry. When Rome ravaged Carthage, and
had grown rich with spoil, she fell through
demoralization brought on by the riches
acquired by contest. These millionaires
say, "Damn the people!" This is the
language of Huntington, Vanderbilt and
Gould. All this was brought about by
the Republican party. They are dishon
est. They rob the poor. General Grant
fell into their clutches and after a while
they will control the whole government.
That was what ought to pull doxn the
Republican party.
There ought to bo a change. During
the last twenty years there have been an
enormous amount of rottenness, steal
ing, corruption and demoralization.
Their interests are not the people's in
terests. They would never reform the
government. It was for the Democratic
party to do that. That party wanted to
examine the books. Blame was not the
man to do it. He is not for civil servioe
reform. What has he done for any one
to believe that he is? He had been on
government pay for nearly thirty years,
yet there was no record of his interest in
tho matter of civil service reform.
Grand old Senator Edmunds said when
ever any bill was got up to hold the rail
roads level, that Blaine was always jump
ing nr from behind Jav fJonld to nrAvent
it. The press of New York and Harper's
Weekly were against Blaine, so .were other
papers. Only three papers in New York
city supported Blaine, and he thought it
was time to halt and ask if something
was not wrong. Why didn't thev sup
port tne nominee of the party? Had he
time he would read what the New York
Tribune had said about Blaine in 1876;
the Chicago Tribune said the same thing.
All ..over the Union Republican papers
refused to support Blaine. Ho thought
that Blaine would not be elected by rea
son of his record.
He thought that Mr. DolDh shouldn't
have talked in the manner ha did about
the editor of Harper's Weekly. That
newspaper was a splendid journal and its
editor is a good Republican.
He wouldn't support Blaine because he
had reason. Suppose that a judge in a
case should say to one attorney "Tho
attorney on the other side should look
out, or else he would lose the case."
What would be thought of thejudge?
While holding the nigh position of
speaker of the house of representatives
he used that station to forward his own
personal interests. The Mulligan letters
proved this. These Mulligan letters
wore not brought out by Democrats.
They were first used by Levi P. Morton,
who wanted to beat Blaine for the Re
publican Presidential nomination in
1876. They cost Blaine the nomination
then. They should cost him the presi
dency now.
Col. Tayler then passed on to the con
sideration of the Democratic nominee.
He was a man with a different record,
Cleveland, tho proud governor of New
York, like a tall, cliff which though the
storms might beat upon it base, eternal
sunlight settled upon its head. He had
been elected sheriff in Buffalo; ho bad
been elected mayor of that city; he naa
been elected governor of the great Em
pire state by nearly- 200,000 majority
over the candidate of the administration.
In all these high offices ho had been a
foe to corruption, a friend to reform; he
was sober, honest, and economical. His
record wasa grand one. The same "ap
athy" that elected him governor of New
York would elect him president of the
United States. "He was the peer of any
for solid, upright, good sense. That was
the Democratic candidate. He alluded
to the Oregonian where the citizens of
Buffalo had given their favorite citizen a
grand reception the like of which had
never before been witnessed by any city
of its size on the continent. Mr. Dolpn
had tried to deoeive the Astoria public
in trying to make them believe that the
people of New "Fork didn't honor Mr.
Cleveland. Was' it right to utter
deliberate falsehood? Tho New York
people said that Cleveland's vetoes were
right. Thev ought to know. There was
some dissatisfaction, but ihat was only
natural, and would not affect the result.
.Mr. Cleveland was not an enemy of the
people. He was their farm friend.
The speaker thought Mr, Blaine would
to-dav give all he possesses if he bad
half as fine a record as Mr. Cleveland
has. He thought that men high in office
should walk in rectitude, and that scan
dal had no part in the campaign. Mr.
Dolph had saw fit to impugn Mr. Clove
land's private character: why hadn't ho
brought up the charges against Air.
Blaine?
He thought that tho Oredpnian was in
consistent, and in its inconsistency was
characteristic of the Republican party.
He thought that tho people should not
place Blame in power. The Irish vote
should not be cast for Blaine, who had
given no proof that he was in favor of
the Irish. He had been egainst foreign
ers in Maine, and it was fair to presume
he was still.
In conclusion Colonel Taylor thought
that Cleveland would bo elected; there
was every reason to nope so, pnu mat
when it was taken into consideration
that such men ts Cleveland and Hen
dricks were on the Democratic national
ticket, tho choice of every seotion of the
country. suoces3 was assured. Tho man
tle of Tilden should fall on Cleveland,
and on the 4th of November, the people
of tho oountry would elect tho Demo
cratic ticket. After recounting the prob
able complexion of Mr. Cleveland's pros
pective cabinet. Colonel Taylor thanked
tho audience for their close attention and
in a peroration of great force ho bid the
audience good night
C. J. Trohchard came forward and af
ter stating that the next meeting would
be on Saturday, at the hall of the club,
proj osed three cheers for Cleveland and
Hendricks which were given and the
audience dispersed.

Prof. James P. Welch, of Philadelphia,
an old-time dancing master, is going to
begin a crusade against the waltz. HoJ
says that tho waltz, as now danced, is
peculiarly immoral and shockingly vul
gar. o thought likely that just as we
so that we could walk around over .a
lady's train to waltz time, and felt as
though wo could mingle in good society
and join the giddy throng, 'some great
reformer would sail in and bust tho
whole business. Thjs is not the first
time we have been left in" a similar man
ner. Prof. Welch claims that the danc
ers, especially among the lower classes,
becomo too contiguous, and that at the
seaside resorts waltzere are too-sociable
altogether. This is a natural result of
the two sexes going in swimming to
gether. It was not allowed when we
were a boy. Of- course, the Atlantic is a
pretty big pond, and there is room for
all; but man is a social being, and. he
hates to go four miles away and bathe
by himself wh6n he is liable to have a
cramp and get drowned. Be"1 naturally
wants to bathe somewhere where a young
woman, wearing a blue dressing-sacque'
and a bracelet, can run in and rescue
him when he gets a cramp. Waltzing,
however, should be reformed somewhat.
The young man who thinks he ought to
insert his nose in the ear of his partner
wane romcing ouvui to oo taxen out in
the cloak-room and his attention callori
to his error. A large man with a two-year-old
club could explain it to him so
that the whole matter would be perfectly
uunuus. iiniuui xa juijfc ji kq every
thing else it can be perverted. Even
tho camp-meeting has recently been thn
subject of harsh and bitter criticism.
When tho camp-meeting gets perverted,
it is time for us all to beware. None of
us are safe. Whether in the ball-room,
at the seaside, tho camp-meeting, or in
the sleeping-car, the journalist is sur
rounded by n cordon of disguised foes,
any one of whom will down him if he
don't keep his eyes constantly peeled.
We live in an age of temptations, and
consequent viotories or defeats. Let us,
therefore, brethren of the press, so live
that the first man who points the finger
of scorn at us may be worn out on the
cold besom of earth. Laramie Boom

Ladies are wearing their last year's
dresses, writes the Isles of Shoals, N. Y.,
correspondent of the New York Graphic,
and tho decorative art which now dis
p'ays itself in clothing children has
adopted cheaper and less fanciful mate
rials. Broad Mnckinaw hats and a few
yards of white illusion are all that is
necessary for a fashionable hat this sea
son, while last year everybody run to ox
pensive plumes and the breasts and the
wings of bright-hued birds.
As for the men, those who have good
calves ore all wearing knickerbockers.
Even the spindle-shanked fellows will
have to come to it or people will think
their limbs are worse than they are. Nine
out of overy ten men Pve met here have
appeared in Ocsar Wilde's costume, lack
ing the velvet and long hair, but I think
the new fashion is due quite as much if
not more to tho bicycle than the disciple
of the utter. The same custom prevails
all along the beach, and in tho moun
tains it is even moro prevalent. It strikes
one oddly at first to see a man of 50
dressed in tho same pattern that is com
mon for boys of 10, and you mentally
conolude that you wouldn't do it if you
were in his place, but tho convenience of
the dress is at once acknowledged, and
after a little when you becomo accus
tomed to the novelty you say to yeurself:
"Well, if everybody's going to do it, I'll
get a pair of these myself."
In boating, fishing, tramping and
other pursuits which the man at the sea
side is naturally expected to follow, the
knickerbockers are a great improvement
over the ordinary pantaloons, and to a
man who has a good pair of legs there is
a certain amount of gratification in be
ing able to show them without trans
gressing tho bounds of modesty.
There is everything in favor then, and
nothing against the acceptance
of the suggestion Mr. Wilde of
fered, and while knee-breeches may not
bo introduced on the stock exchange, on
the board of trade or in the counting
houses at present, you may expect to see
them pretty Generally in the country next
year, and perhaps in the cities during the
society season as a part ot evening dress.
The ladies have gone back to their grand
mothers for styles, and why shouldn't
the men? The test of a modiste's art is
in making a sleeve fit at the shoulder;
the test of a tailor's art is in cutting a
pair of pantaloons so they wont bag at
the knees and flop around the shoe tops;
but if you will observe the next hundred
men and women yon meet you will dis
cover that both are at a very imperfect
stage ol evolution. The now custom will
improve the appearance of our under
pinning if it doe nothing more.
