H IAL J-iPlKOf THK IMTt FRIDAY, JUNE 7. The democrats of Ohio hav Un holding Hariimcide convention, Id which they adopt platform de manding unlimited free silver coin Bk-e. Khernian think thin action will refult in the tiouiiiiatiou of two democratic ticket. Uov. Alteld, ol Illltiob, wanoiiH of the KiK-ukt-M at thta convention. A cartoon apar in went numher of the Chicago 1 nter- Hfun, that amuse an well a graphically telU the atory of aouie present differ in the denic ratic narty. It in a painter's platform wlnginir fr,n ropes against the tenth rtory of a building. On one eml bits Altgeld with his iaint bucket containing brushes labeled "free silver." On the other hand, kneel Cleveland with hU yellow paint bucket U tween bin knees. Then with a carpenter' saw he is industriously cutting the platform In two at a jxilnt between the tiainter-. The board is lalieled "democratic party." Kiel it tho capital awl. thief city of tho German province of Hleavlg Holsteln wanhed by the waters of the lialtlc on the east and those of the North sea on the west. An old canal connecting the two sea ha been en larged till it Is now a ship-way. The Kiel end Is Into a deep, safe harbor off tho Baltic, which I the station ol the greatent portion of the (icrman navy. The formal o)enlng of this great canal takes place this month, and June the 20th is the great fete day. The festivities partake of an internntional character. The princi pal government of the world will send several of tho let examples of their war shios to represent their respective countries. A White Bqutiilron of four war-ships, under Hear Admiral Kirkland, will repre f nt Uncle Ham. The awiftent navy In the world will not send as her em bassadress the Minneapolis, the Queen of the Hoas; but the grav and greyhound ieed of her racers will be vecl New York and Columbia. It Is safe to say that no natmn will have ffner craft at Kiel than this cruiser and this commerce destroyer. As for the Han Francisco and the Marblehead, they will be euVctlve by contrast, and will testily to the great advance in marine architecture that Las been mado by the United Htates. The republicans have Just held a state convention in Kentucky and have nominated a state ticket that they think will be elected this full if the state poll as many republican votes as it did last year in the con gressional elections. Colonel Brad ley, in a fpeech before the conven . tlon, thus niKke of the platform adopted : "The platform of to-day is but a repltitlon of the platforms of the past. It demands protection for every American Interest protection for the producer, protection for the manufacturer, protection for tho la borer and protection for the currency. It denounces the heresy of the free, unlimited and lndceudent coinage of silver, and it will protect the people from the dishonor of repudia tion. It ha said before, and It re peats now, that every dollar should be of equal value with every other dollar, and that every promise to pity a dollar should le as sacred as a sol dier's gravo and worth 1ih cents wherever the flag lloat. The plat form favor the use of gold and silver, as of equal debtpaylng owcr, and will preserve fur every son of toil the aame dollar a is held by the richest millionaire In tho land. We heartily sympathize with tho Intelligent busi ness men of the democratic party who agree with im on this question, and ask them to help us in an effort to preserve the nation's credit." Several pajer In the state have published a statement Hint the late session of the Htate ti range de nounced the last legislature in strong terms. Such is not the case, as lion. W. 1. Hare, who wn a del vgato from llillsloro tirange, rciort. The Htate Orange did not denounce the last legislature, or any other leg islature. The grange Is a great con servative body, well-balanced ami non-partisan. Tho gnuigo did, how ever, pass a resolution condemning the practice of placing item in tho general appropriation not previously provided for by law. The grange thinks that such appropriation are contrary to the provision of section ", article IX, of the state constitution. Ileuce the grange requests the wcrt tary of htate to refuse to draw war. rants for mich appropriation that the matter may I tested by the supreme eourt. A gxd many citien have Isoieutisl time and again that Items la the appropriation bill could not lie vetoed by the governor, while unob. Jectionable Items might le crmitted to become a law. The grange may have found that a legal remedy 1 al ready in existence, and it help hould at once tie invoked. It I well known that oljertionuble Items are presented from dtwigning members of the third house and tacked on at the last moment, when it is impossible to cross them off. No party can Is? held responsible for them. No, not even the populist themselves could report an appropriation bill free from I we put upon them, because we re uch Job. 'eelve it, and they can send It back REAL FRIES DS OF h'lLVER. While the old law was In existence 17W to 187 the mint were open to the free and unlimited coinage of both inetaiit; but with the act of lb73, abolishing theilver unit and aubti tuting the gold unit, the luluts were closed to silver aud h-ft open to gold alone. V. II. Harvey in the June Forum, p. 408. ThUstateuiemt about tho changing of the unit from silver to gold is mere dust throwiug. The act of 173 merely dropped the dollar piece from ike list of silver coins. ' The mints continued to be opeu to ihe eoinairo of silver. Instead of the coinage dropping, it Increased. In l7l it was 17,000,000, in 1873 It was ll.VOOO.000, in 1870, $24,500,000; in lo78r $2S,GO0,Ono. The mintage of silver increased till it reached In 1800 10.000,000. ' It was tho Blund act that tended to restrict the coiuago to 2.000.000 ocr mouth. The Sherman law, a republican measure, extend ed the use of silver either in the shaiaj of paper or coin, ouly again to be restricted by demo cratic legislation In 18tf:i to a poiut u'here not a dollar of silver can be coined, except for the purxne of re placing what already is out. Another bill was passed in 1b7o not the one dropping the dollar from the list of coins, but the oue fixing the legal tender power of our money, that hurt silver. By an act of Feb ruary 12, 1873, the legal tender ol silver was limited to sum no greater than . This was a mistake which was seen and recognized, before 1878, for ou the 28th of February, of that year, the unlimited legal tender power was restored to silver, which it has MMrtesacd ever since, and now has. Wherefore, it i apparent that the complaint of the free silver coinage people Is not Justified by the fuels, Mint Instead of the contraction of the coinage republicans have expanded it, that the real eontraetlonlsU have oeen tho democrats, uud that it has ow n tho policy and legislation of re publican that has maintained the parity betweeu gold and silver. ,4 WAR OF RELIUIOS. Tho peace of Europe I threatened l.y the refusal of the TurkUh govern ment to ugree to reforms demanded ly England, France anil Russia. It will lie remembered that a few months ago a revolting .massacre of christians occurred. The erpet ra tors were traced to the Turkish army. The nation or esieru Eu rope Joined In an investigation. The coin tnlsHlon has made a voluminous report and recommend that reforms la? demanded embracing these twelve points; First Ihe eventual reduction of the iiunilr of vilayets provinces. Second Guarantee for tho selec tion of valis, or governors. Third Amnesty for Armenian political prisoners. Fourth Return of Armenian ex iles to their homes. Fifth Final settlement for com mon law crime. Sixth The Inspection of prisons, Seventh The appointment of a high commissioner to supervise the reforms. Eighth The creation of a perma. uent committee on cRitrol at Con stantinople. Ninth Indemnity to tho Sassouu and other victims of the recent massacres. Tenth Regulation of religious con version. . Eleventh Maintenance of Armen ian rights aud privileges. Twelfth Position of the Armen ians in other vilayets of Asiatic Tur key to lio regulated ou tho Ktuic basis. Ihsides a refusal to order those re forms an attack on Jiddah, a seaport town of Arabia, Is threatened by Bedouins, a wild desert tribe. The English vice-consul was recently as sassinated in that town and European life I not considered safe there. This slate of affair was brought aliout by the foreigner insisting thnt sanitary laws must be observed by pilgrims on their nnnu il trips to Mecca, so that the cholera scourge that followed In their pntii tii-t and prvltm years may controlled. The native cling to their tilth and tight for It. XII Mi M t KKfl.l tr.S 10 llll.L. Ihive Hill at taiked the hiiani-ial partof a recent speech made by Sen ator Slicrniun, of Ohio. Sherman heard of what Hill said and h:n re plltd. First, he s.i.l that Iinls speech indicated that he had not read what Sherman said. Ihe .-ena-tor added : "At all the conviction in Ohio we have declared we are in favor of the use of both gold and silver, maiiitnincd at par w ith each other. To Ihe extent that He can maintain ilvcr at par with gold, we coin It at the prtscnt ratio. We buy the silver at its market value and coin it at the legal rati'), but we Umintuln it by receiving it and paying It out as the equivalent of gold." "I there anything lo this to de grade air dollar alandarJ, a Senator Hill says'."' "It does not degradn it. The whole of our policy I to maintain the two metal at par uitli each other." "What alswt Senator Hill's sarcas tic reference lo our silver dollar and grceiilsu'k lieing exportable?" "Mr. Hill only displays his ignor ance when he says our silver money and all other forms of money are not receivable in England at the" value on the steamer at a trifling cost and can use it la payment Instead of gold. They can preseut silver cer tificate, aud we receive them the suOiG a gold in payment of duties aud other debt. If we refuse to accept them on a arity wlttt all other money, we would be on the standard of silver." These words show that Sherman is not so great a monster after all, but a consistent republican bl-inetaliat. UAkEU CITT. Bordering on the extreme eastern end of the state In Tu. 6 to 15 S. It. 35 to 48 E. aud distant from Tort- land, say, a the crow flies, 210 mile lies Baker couuty, live times larger than Washington county. The iu dustry of the people Is stock mi-lug and gold ruiuing. Baker City la the principal town, aud contain 3,-Vmj in liablUuts. It I on the line of the O. it. aud N. Cm' railroad. The near est stream U l'owder river, hardly a large as. the Tualutiu. The Powder Is a tributary of the Snake. South aud west of the town extend the Blue uiouutalu. These, supplement ing the ellect of the Cascades, further west, cut off most of the rain, so that tho 1'ottder river valley is about as dry a auy region of Eastern Oregon .8uge brush aud other plants of arid habitat do there grow Just outside of the city is the plant of the Oregon Lumber Company, with a capacity of 100 M feet jerday Log for this output are obtaiued from the Blue mouutalns, about the uead of Humpter valley, twenty-five miles away. These are transported to the mill over the Humpter valley railroad built and owned by the luniU-rliig company. Haily freight and passenger trains accommodate the'tralllc of that little valley. It is a frequent occurrence for a train of twenty cars, loaded with lumber, (o pull out and away to the east on Ihe O. It. ii N. line. The Morning Democrat, a sprightly daily, owned and published by Barnes & Small, keeps the city aud surrounding country informed of the current happeuings of the world. The public school baa an enroll-, ment of 000 pupils, instructed by a corps of twelve teacher. The city Is lighted by both electricity and gas. V good system of waterworks sup plies an abuudant volume of water for extinguishing tires aud for street anil household use. Two good hotels furnish comlortable homes for vIhU tor aud the traveling public. The business houses are substantial and well stocked, showing the healthy condition and volume of trade In that section. But the pride of Baker City and the county are the gold mines. The best known and best improved prop erty Is the Virtue mine, owned by U. W, tirayson, of Hau Francisco, aud ojMjrated by John MoXally, a suM?rintendent of long exjierience. When McNully took the mine, some years ago, gold valued at 5 per ton was lost. Now the loss Is but 40 cents, and soon machinery is to be used that will save even this moiety. The mill Is a twenty-stamp machine that never ceases its thumping, day or night. Its capacity is fifty to sixty tons of rock per day of twenty- four hours. The monthly output of tho mine is $25,000. It is not neces sary to say that the freo silver advo cates about Baker City are few and far l?tween. Another mine Just getting Into shape Is the Elk Horn, which, last month, after a run of twenty-three days, cleaned up 27,000. White Swan, Bonanza, with others are re garded equally as good a the Yirtue- aud Elk Horn, but they are not yet dvveloa'd. The owner are Ksr men, uud a yet have not been able to supply tho expensive machinery necessary for reducing the quartz loa pu'p. Baker City is getting better and better each year, and it M ill not be long before it will be one of th wealthiest towns on the coast better than Virginia City, taxvuse more srnmnent.

Oar merchant, Mr. LtUue, was taken quite lit last Sunday, but I la'tter now. Mrs. Emrick and daughter, Ek trellit, were visiting In Hiilslsro last week. We noticed (ieorge Bigam, of 1'ortlauil, ou tair street once more, ,Mi"v.r. Frank Row ell, Bud Taylor ii hi I Will Morris were in Hillsiaro Sunday, on their Wheels. Tho social dance at Mr. Hanson's last Saturday was well attended. Frank, Bert and Cassie Rowell at tended the "Rose Carnival" at Hills- boro Wednesday evening, and took part In the exercises. George Oroner was in Ilillsboro, Sunday. ( Once Wallan and Mollie Miller were in Portland, Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Sutherland met with quite a mc-hiip last Saturday even ing, on their way to attend a meetiag acros Ihe river. As they were crns ing Schoir bridge the horse became frightened at Mine linen hanging on the bushe near by, and commenced backing. He backed off the em bankment at the approach of the hridge, ujwet the vehicle and threw the invupuiit to the ground. Mrs. Sutherland and a grandchild ecaed with a few bruises, but Mr. Suther land was less fortunate. lie had two rib broken, and one dislocated from the breast bone. Or. Tamieste was called, and rtset them, and the pa tient wa greatly io proved when last heard from. Master Cornelius IUsmt, of Hills U.ro, Is the guest of Claude Jackson, this week. June meeting commence Satur day, June Mb, at Unity rhapei. DECOKATIQJ IUY COSTtXIEi). Partial arranzemeut had beeu made last week to publish all lh:tt was said at the exercises in tho cem etery, but owing to a press ol pro fessional engagements, heiiaior nus ton did not have time to put hi address in manuscript before the event, bul Ske extempore. Since theu a partial report or what nesaui hia been written ut, aud is hi r given. Mr. Huston said : Veterans, Membeus op the Hkand Akmv ok the Rkitbmo, Ladies and Of.ntlk.mkn : When I was asked I y a member of tho committeo to deliver an ad dress uon this occasion, I fhrank from the task. Tho greatest ot American orators have, fjr twenty five years, on each recurring 3oth ol May, discussed the theme that nut- orally arise upon occasion like in is. To fitly descrila' the valor of those whose grave we meet to uocoraic to-day would require the greatest efforts of the most eloquent orator that ever existed. It seemed," there fore, that you hi.d laid n in me a heavy task, but the roquet, coming a it did from a memla r f theOrand Army of the Republic, wa to me a command. A little boy slopped mo to-day upon the street ami aked me ihe questiou "Why do we decrtrute the irraves of the soldier dead?" I do uot know whether the boy did tlii of his own motion, or whether some o'der rson directed him to ask me this question, hut It caused me to ask myself whether or n"t th.ro wen uot a great muiiy of the youugei generation who were asking this question. The old soldier do not ask this question. The survivor ol that gallant band of men who fol lowed Grant to Appomatox, or who marched with Sherman to the sea, know why we meet to-day to strew upon the graves of our fallen heroes our rarest and must beautiful flowers. The women who lived through the dark days from 'CI to '05, w ho bade their husbands, - their sons, their fa i hers aud .their lovers goisl-bye, and saw them turn their faces toward the sunny South and start for the scenes of conflict, thoroughly under stand why it Is that we meet to-day to pay our tribute to our fallen dead. But there are some who have grown up sin co then who perhaps do not fully realise all that is implied In our ceremonies to-day. it has a two-fold purpose. There I to it a seutiineutal aud a practical hide. We wish to show to the survivors of that great conflict that we appreciate their valor, their patriotism and their devotion. We wish tho world to know and understand that the people of these United Slates have not forgotten the courage of our gal lant sons who, in tho hour of (anger, sprang to tie defense of their coun try, ami upon me auur oi ineir de votion, sacrificed everything that Wen hold dearj yea, more, If it be true as many believe that those heroes whose graves we decorate to-day can look down upon us and know and understand what we do hero, wo wish them to know and understand that their sacrifice aud their devotion shall never be for gotten while free government and free institutions exist upon the earth. At the s.ime time, the fact that we thus pay tribute to manly valor and chivalric courage, develops the liest sentiments of our heart aud makes us better women and tietter men. The practical side this; All history shows that no people ever established a free government ex cept at the cannon's mouth. That no people ever pn served their liberties lor any length (f time unless they were willing, if need Ik, to offer their lives as sacri fice fof the preservation of those liberties. If we then would preserve our free institutions we must be ready at all times to defend them, (t s nature fop human beings to wish to la? remembered after their death. They do not like to think that they will be forgotten. It Is this feeling whicl) make men strive for name and honor, which make them strive to have their name tfrit ten high upon the rolls of fame. This I a natural and proar feeling. The desire to bo remembered I a laudable and a necessary ambition. It Is wise then for us to show to our young men that if they wish to be remembered while time shall last, there is no ls?tler, no surer, no nobler way than to offer themselves, if need ls, a. a sacrifice upon the altar of their country and the preservation of its Institutions. It has beeu (-aid-by some that Decoration Day 1 observed for the purpose of stirring up feelings of resentment pnd bitterness, but such is not the case. All over our bo loved country to-day, from Maine to Texa, and from Oregon to Florida, the blue and tho gray meet and clasp hands over the graves of our fallen comrades, and the last vestige of bitterness i swept away by their tear. The men who w ore the blue cherish no animosity for those who wore the gray, and tho. e who wore the gray have nothing but admira tion and respect for the men who wore the blue. Ail the northern soldier ask i I hut it may he con ceded onco for all, now and forever, that the cause for w hich they fought was right; that the questions settled by the war shall lie unch rstood to be finally and forever settled, never W bo resurrected while our form of gov ernment shall exist in our Is loved country. Ninety-nine out. of every hundred In the South freely concede this and ouly ask that it may be con ceded that although they were wrong yet they defciidrd their belief with a determination worthy of a better cause, and in such a manner as to reflect no discn dit upon the courage and ability or the American soldier and this the soldier of the North gladly and willingly admits, The old veterans will not be wi n us long. Many of us who are here to-day will live to so.- t ie ne wM n we shall meet upon the 30ih day ol May to rerform the beautiful rites over the grave of our heroic dead, when there will lswlth u no sur vivors of that great conflict. Every newspaper that we take up contains the aecouut of the death of some one of that gallant band who so nobtv rcetionded to their country's csll, and followed Its flag until a "government of the people, by the people and fur the people" was again re-established in every nook and corner of our com mon country. Grant, Sheridan, Hancock, Thomas, Ibsker, Meade. McClella:i, Ourfield and ltfun, ami countless other of the gnat leader, who 1 might nau.e, have pii-wd away; and to-day, in II. e gn at city of ! Chicago, thpre I ls-ing carried to hi I last retting place all that is mortal of on of the bravrst of the brave. A week ago 1 should not have men tioned his name upon an occasion iike this, but I trust that I may now r-jH-ak of him without giving offense. Highest of all in Leavening Tower. Latest U. S. Gov't Report 11 AC50LUTEE.Y PURE He Is one whom It ha. been toy de light to honor, and oue of the proud et feel lugs cf my life Is that It has been my good fortune to have known Walter L Greshaui from my boy hood np. Born and reared in pov erty he acquired his education by enduring the hardest privations. En listing in the service of his country at the tlrd call, he was a brave and gallant soldier, and in the same bat tle In which McPhersou was killed, Gen. Gresham received a wound whit h made him a cripple a long a he lived. A a 1'niled Stabs Judge, in the famous Wabash ease, he took Jay Gould by the throat and comjllfd him to disgorge the millions which he and his nssm-iatea hud filched from the stockholders of that company, and showed to the world that there wa at least one of the Lulled Htates courts that wa not Influenced or con trol led by the wealth of the litigants. Of his career as secretary of state this is not the time nor the place tosak. It is ton soon. Mistake he may have made, a w ho has not. But of one thing I feel assured, that when the verdict of history Is written it will at least show that what be did was with an honest purpose and an upright heart, aul for w hat he be lieved to lie for tho best Interests of h!s country. And so I a-ik you, one and all, to diy, a you pay your tribute to the d nd, to drop one flower as a token uT respect to the memory of Hon. Waller Q. Greshani. And now as we recall to-day the heroism of our gallant dead; as we recount tho siory of their courage, and of the privations which they en dured: as we recall the parting from their loved ones, which wrung their hearts with anguish, let u here re solve that each of us, so far us our iu llueme goes, will strive to have the affairs our country so conducted as to avoid war if possible with honor to urselves, but at the same time re memberlug that eternal vigilance Is the price of liberty. That If we would preserve our free institutions we must be ready and willing at all times to defend them at the camion's mouth, let u impress these lessons upon our young people, so thut they may. grow up b;ureed with the sentiments of patriotism, and we may then rest assured that govern ment of the tsople, by the people and for the people, shall not perish from the earth, anq the nag or our country shall continue to wave "O'er the land of the tree and the home or tho brave."
