The republican platform of the
June election la Oregon is as follow?:
"The republican of Oregou, In
convention assembled, reaffirm their
belief la and loyalty to tha gold
standard. We commend the repub
lican congress for it recent legisla
tion making tbe gold standard a part
of the statu tor v law of the land, bo
long as either of our great political
parties advocates the free coinage of
silver, tbe maintenance of the gold
standard is the most importaut poli
tical issue, anectlng as it dors tbe
value uf the farmer's crop and the
laborer's wages. We call upon ail
who believe in sound money to unite
with the republicans of Orepon in the
important elections of this year In
order that a victory may be won for
the gold standard so decisive as for
ever to preclude tbe debasement of
our currency by the free coinage of
silver.
We heartily Indorse the policy of
tbe administration particular'y in se
curing the Philippine islands, and
demand that they shall he retained
as American territory. We have
confidence that the American people
without departing from their tradi
tions, will give security to personal
and property rights, Justice, liberty
and equality before the law to all
who live beneath its flag.
'We Indorse the policy of the ad
ministration In suppressing the in
surrectlon in the Philippine?, headed
by Aguiualdo, We point with pride
to the honorable part played by the
Second Oregon regiment iu this war.
They met with victory In ever com
bat and covered their state and conn
try with glory on every field. We
condole with tbe families of thot
members of the regiment who lost
their lives In the conflict and extend
our congratulations to the survivors
of the regiment on the brilliant and
honorable record they have made,
"We regard trade with the Orient
as one of tbe great sources ol our na
tional wealth in tbe future, and an
oin door in Cnina as an important
aid to the growth of our trade in the
Orient. We commend the successful
efforts of the pre nt administration
aud especially of its secretary of stale
to seeuie by treaty with the several
European powers the right to the free
Introduction of American goods Into
this great empire.
"The republican party in Oregon
recognizes the vital i ecessity of con
trol of the organization and curtail
inent of the powers of trusts aud
combinations of capital by the state
within its borders, and pledges lb-
support In the approaching legisla
ture to laws defining and carrying
out those objects.
"We are In favor of retrenchment
and reform In the expenditure of
public money; we pledge the repub
lican party to favor the enactment of
all legislation looking to an economi
cal administration of public affairs.
"We favor the pending Constitu
tional amendment for an increase In
the number of Supreme Court Judge?
from three to five.
"We point with pride to the legis
lation adopted by the last legislature.
It abolished the railroad commission.
It reduced the legal rate of Interest
to 6 per cent. It passed an act for
the submission to the people ol a
Constitutional amendment providing
for the initiative and referendum. It
enacted a registration law for the
protection of the purity of the ballot.
As experience demonstrates this last
act to be cumbersome in some parti
culars, we pledge the republican leg
islature to make effort for Its amend
ment, to the end that tbe registra
tion of qualified voters may be facili
tated. "We are unalterably opposed to
any measure looking to the leasing
of the public domain, believing that
such a system would have an un
doubted tendency to hasten the con
eentratlon of land ownership In the
hands of a few Individuals and
against the long-established Ameri
can policy of encouraging home
building.
We favor an amendment of the
Constitution of the United Slates so
as to provide for the election of Uni
ted States senators by direct vote of
the people, and we instruct our sena
tors and representatives in congress
to use every effort to secure such an
amendment lo the Constitution.
"We are in favor of the immediate
construction of a canal between the
Atlantic and the Pacific at the Isth
mus of Panama, and we ln-truct the
Oregon delegation in congress lo
labor earnestly and contiuually for
the enactment of such It gislation as
will lead to the construction and
0eration of the canal under govern
menial control.
We urge the immediate passage
of the Mil now pending iu CDngress
to pension Indian War Veterans, and
we pledge the support of the Oregon
delegation in congress to (ho same.
"We heartily Indorse the adminis
(ration of Governor Ocer and the
stale officials of Oregon, as econotui
cal, wise and creditable to the state."
"ltisoed, That we affirm our un
swerving fealty to the gold standard
as the only uuit of value, and instruit
our delegates to the National Repub
lican Convention to support an un
equivocal statement on this ltne i a

we heartily Indorse the wise and pat

(fairs, and we declare the ollcy of

al growth and greatness, and we be-
teve that the blessing which accrue

The First District declared Tues
day for the best interests of tha state,
by the re-nomination of Congressman
Thos. II. Tongue. He was "remeiD,
bered by what be has dow ," and it
is refreshing to know that tbia Is still
considered a valid recommendation
even in Oregon politics. Newburg
Orapl ic.
The renominatlon 01 Hon. Tbos,
H. Tongue for congress, from the
first district, at McMlnnvllle Tues
day, waa a Just and timely recogn
tion of mint, abilety and energy that
official has shown bimsell capable of
la behalf of his slate Oregon. N
thing can be said against Mr. Tongue
politically or personally. He la ea
pable aud in every respect worthy
aud well qualified. Oerv tis Htar.
Ilepreseiitative Tongue was nomi
nated lor his third term on the first
Oallot at Tuesday's convention of
First district republicans at McMinn
villo, having received 92 votes, 10
more than necessary. Resolutions
were adopted declaring for the gold
standard and expansion. Tbe Jour
nal hones and believes that Mr.
Tongue will again be elected lo re
present this district la congress

Cngressman Tongue's important
position on the river and harbor com
uiii tee will enable blm to accomplish
much for Oregon In tbe way of ap
propriations fur tbe imprvement of
our rivers and harbors. It has been
demonstrated that he is wide awake
to tht Interests of the entire state,
and he is now In a position to do the
state more good than ever. Albany
Herald.
Tbe re-nomination of Tbos. II
Tongue for congress in this district
was a wise and Judical step: While
there were other aspirants for honor
there was no contention and the stal
wart men who yielded to tbe de
mands for Mr. Tongue's centtnuance
as representative are In the harness
lo make his re-election a surety,
Verily these are splendid days for
Oregon republicanism when the
party leaders are willing to hold In
c.'itck (heir own political aspirations,
and rolling up their sleeves go into
the campaign to do battle for success
of the grand old republican party.--
Kugene Hegisler.
At the republican congressional
convention for the first district, held
last Tuesday, Congressman Thos. II
Tongue was nominated for his third
term by a vote of 93 to 70 on the
lint ballot. , Claude Oatch, his
strongest competitor, moved Mr,
Tongue's nomination by acclamation
and George C. Brownell, also an
active aspirant for congressional
honors, seconded Mr. Oatch's motion
la an eloquent speech, No repre
sentative from Oregon has made
more ol the qualities of a statesman
thiii Thomas Tongue, and no repre
sentative from any state has received
greater recognition by the adminis
ir diou and press of the country in so
sti.jrt a time. Sheridan Sun.
In all China, the United States has
b it oue representative from Oregon
Hon. II. B. Mi'ler, aud he is sta
tioned 1500 miles from the coast. It
is an important post bat our state
that is Just opposite to that old orien
tal country and so vitally interested
in fostering our trade relations shonld
have a dozen Orrgonians stationed
on the coast lo exercise ine cmce or
door keeiiers. Judge Csples is in
ru, and Oov Lord is in Arg ntiue
but of what service are they to Ore
gon commerce. A ship from the
mifl.th of the Columbia goes not to
either isjrt. The state needs those
men in Asiatic porta. Calif rnla is
no ia-tter off, nor is Washington.
Etch has a lone consul in China
three for the coast. This is a matter
for our delegation In congress to
study.
Not by a long shot does the Inde

cisto free. The same wilh Philip-
pii.es and wilh Porto Hico. But
Polio Hico and the Philippines must
raire their own revenue for local gov-
err. men t. Porto Rico now has au
t!i rity to do that, or will have after
Msy 1st, 1000, and the Philippines
MHin will have.
The North Ytmhill Rord while
in I real good authority, thinks it
v -ry probable that Bryan or the can'
didaie of the anti-administration
parly will be defeated this fall. Of
course we republicans think the Re
cord prophesies truly this time, and
rather enjoy this Indication of doa
pendency.

Tbe obstructionists In congress
wbo tried to defeat tbe Porto Rlcan
bill bad no counter measure to oner.
If they wanted to go on record la
favor of absolute free tiade with the
Island at this tlm it Is generally
sod nosed Ih'y had men In thrjr
ranks wise enough to draft such a
measure and on which they certainly
could have secured a respectable
hearing.
But tha fact la, that with the coodl
tlon now confronting the Porto
Ricaoa they could not have framed a
bill that would bava relieved the sit
u at ion unless the v made II a direct
appropriation of funds out of the pub
lie treasury. Im nediate relief was
what Porto Rico had lo have and It
got It throuith the republican by
return of 2,OHO,000 of the atuoui.l
raised by du:!eou Imports f.om the
Island. No other legislation could
havj it-lii vtd ill..' si u.ttijti.
Porto Rico is a disorganised gov
ernment. made ao aa a result of the
war and transfer of kinship from
Spain to the Uulted States.
The chief products of the island-
sugar and tobacco are controlled by
plantar wbo have large holdings
and who fix the price of. these pro
ducts. Until Porto Rico formulates
a government of Its own by which
internal revenue can be raised do
free trade measure could possibly re
lieve their condition. With no source
of revenue the only remedy seemed
to be Imposing a light tariff on the
products of the Island tbe revenue
from which la to be reverted to tbe
Island in support of its present chaotic
government and as belp to its poor
until a stable government is formed,
If Porto R co hid come to ua
with a revenue system In force that
would have met all requirements of
self government there would have
been no hesitancy in at onee giving
the island absolute free trade. Tbe bill
as It now stands becomes inoperative
two years hence; in fact its provis
ions will become null and void when
ever Porto Rico geta its government
properly organized and provides for
sufficient revenue to conduct its own
aflairs.
The new law expressly provides
that Porto Rico has only to provide
a revenue system of her own when
the new law will then be annulled
If Porto Rico does this within the
next six months the tariff measure
will go out of existence and the
island will have freo trade. The bill
baa had two claasea of critics those
who did not understand Its provisions
nor the prevailing conditions in Porto
Rico and the politicians wbo had no
remedy at all but turned critic for
political purposes. Eugene Register.
The U.S. double turreted battle
ship Kearsarge baa Just been put
through an experimental gun prac
tice, and has come out aa the one
great battleship of the world. In
the new ship the old war vessel Idea
of a double gun deck haa been adopt
ed only instead of tha long deck with
guns looking through port holea at
regular Intervales, there are two tur
rets two stories high each. In the
lower compartment two 13-Inch guns
are mounted, and just above In the
second story are two 8-inch guns,
Combining the two turrets with their
guns a broad aide of eight pelces may
be delivered at the enemy which Is
a n asa of metal never before possible.
Kentucky Is a ship of the same class.
Lt. 8trauea suggested the Idea to
to Admiral Sampson when he waa at
the head of the ordinance department
before the Spanish war, and this suc
cessful trial is a triumph for these two
men who were freely criticised not
oniy Dy many omcera in our own
navy but by foreigners.
We have heard about taxation
without representation, but it does
not apply lo Porto Rico. Iodeed
that little Island ao far b a paid no
taxes Into the general fund. All the
money collected haa been spent In
the Island. And the law that lays a
local tax also provides representa
tion same as Oregon had prior to
1 859. Indeed Porto Rico haa repre
sentation without taxation.
Farmers, take your own census be
fore the census taker cornea around.
Set down the number of acres in
each crop, quantity grown, and its
value. Put down also, number uf
livestock, value, and value from pro
duct from dairy, cows, poultry, etc.
Let it all le in black and white when
the census enumerator appears, and
then you'll not have to guess, and
ine rjuu census will noi be all guess
work.
Mr. Bryan haa much to aay about
the republicans "flopping" but he la
measuring our corn in his half-
bushel," to use a provincialism. Ilia
party, or the oue to which he claims
allegiance, is and haa been the worst
boas ridden organization in the his
