Was n. Success Able Address bv
Hon. Geo. W. Stapleton.
Not to let the campaign go by with
out a single meeting in Josephine coun
ty, the republicans held a rally iu
Grants Pass Saturday uight. Chair
man Joseph Moss, of the county cen
tral committee, Geo. II. Durham sud
Hon. Geo. W. Colvig"vvere the lead
ing spirits in the rally and not with
standing thu general indifference that
pervaded the political field, they sue
reiiled iu making tho rally a success
and an Inlluuncd to gain voters for
Hoosevelt and for prosperity.
Early in the evening, the street in
front of tho opera hose where the
meeting was held, was illuminated
with fireworks and the Grants Pass
cor.it t band played several lively
pieces to draw the crowd into thai
opera licuse. A fair sized audience
was githered and the meeting was
called to order hy Judge Durham,
w hobrielly slate d that tho little eu
thiisiiisui and spirit in the campaign
in Oregon did not mean r discouraged
teehng ou t iu pirt of tho republicans,
but that it unhealed that the peo
ple as a w holo were satisfied with tho
splendid prosperity that the country
is enjoying as a result of the business
like and prudent adiiiiuistratiou of
the national government by the re
publican ndiiiinislratiou. Even the
democrats went so well satisfied that
tiny were making no great effort to
oust President Roosevelt and the re
publican congress from K)wer aud
hero III Oregon they were not even
holding u meeting ill many of the
counties. Mr. Duiliain closed his
remarks with a well worded intro
duction of Hon. Geo. W. Stapleton of
Portland, us tho orator for tho evening-
Mr. Staph ton, with the opening of
his ail'liess, paid a neat compliment
to III progress ami prosperity of
Grants l'uss, after which be took up
the topic of the evening. first
gave tin. reasons why he left the
eh mocraiic party in the McKiuley
aniaiii of i -', when the demo
cratic parly hi came so Bryanized
with free silver uud other fallacies
that it lost thousands of its voters
who went to the republican Jiarty as
more nearly meeting their views on
the great questions of the day. And
what was more, these democrats had
b-atued that when the republicans
wete in control of the legislation of
the oochirv that ttie people were pros
perous and having but a few years
previous had a bitter exjs'riciico in
ttie haul times coincident w ith a dem-
oi ratio aduiiuistrat.ou, they pro II ted
by this eiperieuce aud placed their
vote with a party that always brought
plenty and prosperity to the American
people. Mr. Staplirt..n gave a review
of the work of the republican party
of its accomplishments in giving the
business world a sound money, the
factories a growing market, the
laborers plenty of work, the farmers a
ready market for their produce and
ti e country an eia of prosiierity such
as U equled by few nations of the
world. His s-ech was well delivered
aud his saint clearly made and it
was well r celved by the audience
and was a heliful feature In tho re

The more or less sensational reports
concerning bis resignation, which
have appeared in the Portland Tele,

are to very nearly their whole ritriit,
and have been founded very
Isrgely oiion misstatements, many of
the statements having absolutely no
foundation in fact, and all of the
articles iu question Is ing grossly In
accurate and entirel) misleading,
(in socoant of indiscreet actions ou
the part of Mr. Council, the church is
unanimous in the belief that his use.
fulness in the church has ceased, and
while there may be enough to war
rant the church in asking for
his resignation as pastor, a grave
injustice has beeu done when Hctl
tioas, sei.ratlonsl accounts like those
mentioned are printed ami pub
lished. They ran never be recalled
and no amount of correction or even
retract lou can counteract their enacts.
