It is the North Yamhill Record that Is not telling the truth. Mr, Tongue never wrote a letter to the Oregonian defending free sliver coinage, or against a gold standard. At the time mentioned by the Re cord Mr. Tongue was making sound money speeches, one of which is par ticulariy rvinemliered as It was dellv- ered in Portland and attended by Senator McUin in which he sharply arraigned such organa aa the Record which were at that time howling for fiee silver coinage, Uio it is ptoper to say that the Record Itself wss ask' lug for rag money issued by the gov ernmeut at the rate of !"0 "per-ca pa-shea."

The Washington correspondent of the Oregonian has this to say of Con gresfumn's Tongue's daughter, Miss Tongue, w ho Is with him at the cap! tal this winter. No one In Washington enjoys the Boeietyjof the capltpl city more, or is more warmly welcomed within its circles, than Is Miss Mary Tongue, daughter of Rcpresentaiive Tongue, ol Oregon. Tliia is Miss Tongue's second, winter here, ami, she with her many charms and u inning manner, has established herself firmly in tne hearts of her Washington friends, When she first came to Washington at the begroning of the last session of congress, Miss Tongue formed a large uumlier of friends, with whom she became a favorite, and, while Wash ington changes suddenly and often, she experienced no difficulty In re new ing old acquaintances and mak ing scores of new ones when she re, turned this winter. Many of the leading fundi' ns of the season so far have found Miss Tongue among the favored few, ami every presidential reception has found her surrounded bv hoets of admiring friends. One of her clow st friends Is Mrs. William F. Aldrich, of Alabama, who on numerous occasions has entertained Miss Tongue as her guest. Aside from the larger functions, Miss Tongue has been seer.il times of the receiving purty at private receptions, As the Oregon delegation is com posed almost wholly of bachelors, Representative Tongue being the only married man. it does not cut very much of a figure in social life this winter. Were it not for Miss Tongue, they would not be heard of very much, although Representative Moody IhWcs grent Interest In the different social fuui'tiom, and has been invited to many during the sea son, and attends whenever he has the time. Neither of the senators lakes much interest in these social fnnctions, and the absence of Mrs Tongne from the city prevents Mr, Tongue I mm goii'g out very much, Th.? senators and representatives, l.owever, go to the White House re ceptions, as it is rtally necessary on account of their olhVial positions, The setiatt-rs also attend state dinners st the Whito House. Mr. Moody i.erives a great deal of enjoyment from the social side of the Washing, ton life, much more than any other member of the Origon delegation. When the others go out.lt is more a m ittt r of duty than pleasure. 1 1I K KIM 0MIIII II V llTkY. 151 KE. Hoke Smith, of Ueorgla, puts the blsnie forithe Kentucky tumult just where it belong. "When we come to li ok at the state of semi-revolution iliMt eii.;ts In Kentucky we cannot escape the conclusion that Uoebel and his confederates aro responsible for it." This is the judgment of one of the foremost lHuioerals in the South It is the verdict of a man who was Secretary of the Interior In the m cond Cabinet of Present Cleveland Ex-Ss'relary Smith voices the opion- ion of every sano per-!' bi the Unit! Slates, IVmocratic, Populist nd Rcpuhlicitn. The purpose of docliel's confeder- iles to steal the state was plain jfrom the first. They stole the nomination for him, as was charged by the anti- Umbel Democrats at the lime, and as was tacitly acknow lcdl by some of the Uoebel men, lor, f i-S-cretary Smith reminds his fellow -D.-mocrats, UoeU' was the weakext of the three aspirants In the Is-tuix ratio con ven tion, and, by combining with the .text weakest man, and "by turning out 2(52 delegates, he succeeded in uggling through his own nomina tion." A M'Umatic iffort was wade, through the law which be put on the statute book to meet Jut such a case aa this, to steal the election at the polla. being beaten at Uie ballot-box, and beaJen In the returning boards which were packed by Li representatives, be next appealed to the Legislature which was controlled by bis confederates, and there the will of the people was defied and a verdict was given in bis favor. All of this criminality and anarchy In Kentucky was lamentable, but sane persons will have no difficulty in pointing out the individuals who are accountable lor it- Such Southern Democratic papers as the Chattanooga Times, the Memphis Commercial Anneal, the Atlanta Journal and many others Lave, since the publics tln of the returns in November which showed Ooebel's defeat, been predicting the lawlessness w hiili the Gis belites have recently been perpe trating, and iutimating that crime and anarchy would result from it This ia costly piece of criminality for Kentucky. For the gratification of the ambition ofa handful of politi cal brigands, aided. and abetted by a few resnectable newsDauera like the Louisville Courier-Journal, which de nounced Uoebel and all bis works at the time the Uoebel law was pass ed, but which weakly got over on his side in the recent election, a stain has been cast on the name of that which a score of years of orderly government will net wipe out Qlobe-Democrat. IaVOKSKEMiJHSATIOX. The Portland New Age aske for the renomination of Congressman Tongue at the hands of the eltctors of the First District. On that sub ject the paper thus reasons: Congressman Tongue is now serv ing the period ot bis second term in the national body of law-makers His service baa throughout both terms been marked with signal abili ty and unquestionable faithfulness to the interests of bis constituents. His alertness and persistence in behalf of the general Interests of Oregon have on all occasions of publio Importance secured for him pronounced commen dation from the people and the press of the state. He has been fair and impartial in every official act and is regarded In the house of representa tives as one of its most sincere, able and conscientious members. In Ore gon he is too well known as a man of integrtty, honor and sterling abi lity to require praise of his personal qualities in these columns. Without decrying a single virtue bis competitors lor the congressional nomination this year may possess, for they are all gentlemen of more or less ability and good reputation, the New Age believes it is in har mony with public sentiment in this state when it expresses belief that Hon, Thomas U. Tongue should bo returned to congress again this year to enable him to pursue to comple tion, as no other man can at this time, the great bulk of good work he has so excellently begun in tiehalf t f the substantial progress of this com monwealth, and particularly to en able him to finish bis well-directed effort looking to public improve ments in bis district, inaugurated al the present session of congress under conditions of great embarrassment produced by the exigencies of war and the consequent depletion of the public treasury. Suppose we make it purely business proposition this time and send Congressman Tongue back to his great task in Washing ton. EISTEKN OKEtJOX KlSUES. The citizens of Crook county, Piineville, have strongly stated their opposition to the Foster bill that proposes to lesse the grazing lands of the inland empere in the following whereases and resolution: whereas, There is now pend ing Is-fore congress a measure hav ing in view the leasing to private in dividuals and local corporations all the pub'ic lands in the United State, lying west of the 99th meridian; and whereas, Said bill withdraws from settlement and threatens stI ously to check the future develop ment of the west; and whereas, Such a measure would have an undoubted tendency to con centrate the control of large tracts of what ia now public domain in hands of a few individuals; and wheheas, The tendency ol the measure now pending is to give an undue power in the distribution of such lands Into the hand-i of one in dividual, viz: the secretary of agri culture; and whereas, The said measure is in direct conflict and opposition to the American system of providing hornet for it citizens; and whereas, The said measure is a menace to the welfare of its inha bitants of the territory thereby af fected and Is fraught with disaster to the agjarian population of such terri tory, therefore be it. rssolvfd, That we earnestly protest against the enactment Into law of the (lending meiureas di rectly contrary to the interests and development of the west, and di rectly contrary to the American po licy of home-bu.ldiiig and perma nence throughout our land, and be it resolved, That this roeetirg of cltisens take such action as will pro cure the dissemination of this protest throughout the territory affected and earnestly request (he immediate co operation of iU Inhabitants, and be it further resulted, That Oregon's delega tion In congress be and they are here by Instructed to vote and work at any all lime sgaiut ibe proissxj bill f ir leasing publio lands a: d araiosl any inner lorui mrrooi.

COXMISMU. - The first volume of the 'report of the Philippine Commission, signed by Messrs. liewry,8churinap, D-'tib and Worcester, was Iran.-in it ted tc Congress by the Piesident last wfl. It deals principally Willi the firm ol government dt si ruble, for the islands, but it sl-o has ildbolate chapters on the ruc'inl cburecw ritii- it toe pie, their i ducational needs, the n In tons ol llie stcular aitu religions orders to the state, ibe problem ol the Chinese iimnigjants aud the im jKTtance of ttie Issus viewed from naval and maritime stainlioints. As to authority in the islat:d-i tin coiumissioiiers reaffirm that we csti not witbdiaw, that the Filipinos are wholly uupre ared for independence hi d urMt'le lo maintain It it given it, Mi d that uien eif property and edu cal ion iu the islands recognize as iu lipensable American authority and guidance. Pending action of Cou gn ss concerning a di finite form ol government, the ccnjuiissiou rtcom mends that the President immediate ly substitute civil fur military authority wherever it can be done safely, and it is understood he will soon do this in a formal proclamation announcing a policy already iu force and woikiug admirably ii certain of the islands. The commissioners re commend that as soon as insular finances permit, public education should be promptly. established, and when established be free to all. All political considerations should be elimiaated in the making of appoint men's for service in the islands. On this point the commissioners are most emphatic. Tariff differences are so fundamental and irreconcilable that they recommend that for the present there be no attempt to alter the present tariff of the islands, un der which an ever-increasing revenue is pouring into our treasury for use in defraying operations there. The form of governwent deemed beet by the commission Is a territor ial form with an administration ap poiuted by the President, the inhabi tants having the largest measure of home rule in local affairs and electing members cf thu lower House of the Insular legislature, and the provinces being administered much as on Mies are administered in a territory in this country. The suffrage should be guarded by an educational or property qualification, or both. The form of government suggested iu the ma n is like that given to Louisiana by Thomas JeJTcrson. That the tusk w ill be difficult the commissioners concede, out not as difficult as is imagined, for they hold that the Filipinos are promising material, that they possess admirable personal and domestic virtues and are naturally peaceful, docile anc defererntial to constituted authority. Men of high character and attain ments from their ranks would aid us much-if enlisted in the task of estab lishing and maintaining civil.govern, incut throughout the archipclHgo. STATE l'KESS. The meeting of the republican edi tors at Portland was productive of good, individually and for the pf.rty they represent. The organization was unanimous in the opinion that republican newspaiiers were deserv ing of and should receive ti e patron age of the party when in p iwcr. A legitimate republican ptiper stands by its party through thick and thin without taxing individual candidates giving Hu m p cial support without pay. Such newspapers never sell their opinions. It is fair and square business for every legitimate news paper to charge for announcements, publishing of tickets, etc, which are usually paid for by the local central committee, but this is usually a very small amount. And the republican newspapers are right when'lhey ask for the federal patronage, national slate and county. Any reptiblicai officer who will not sward this to his party pa;ers has no conception of justice, and his p'aivi is in the ranks of the privates where he should get a few lessons in party ethio be fore asking for another promotion.
