The Platform. '
United in a common caoBi for tie ea'cred purpose of preserv
ing the principles of government by tbe whole people, in fact as
well 88 lu name, restoring and maintaining equality, under that
government, of all classes, we, the people's democratic and
ailver-republican parties 'of theatate of Oregon, waving all
minor points of difference, and uniting for the purpoBe of car
rying out the gireat underlying principles upon which we are
ail agreed, do make and present to the people of this state the
following declaration of principles, and to the carrying out of
which we solemnly pledge each and every candidate upon our
united ticket. 'y'ii $ ' -; j-jy.-;, ' ' ' 1
Firet We demand tbe free and onreetrlcted coinsgo of sil
ver and gold at the present ratio of 19 to 1, without waiting for
the consent of other nations ; and we are un<erably opposed
to the policy of the present republican administration in de
manding the retirement of greenbacks, and the turning over of
the money making powers , of the government to the national
banks, bs presented by the bill drawn by the republican sec
retary of the treasury, and indorsed by President McKinley ;
and we especially denounce the avowed attempt, by said bi'l to
fasten the country irrevocably and forever to the single gold
standard. "' ; J . r.
We demand a national money, safe and sound, issued by tbe
general government only, without tbe intervention of banks of
issue, to bM loll legal tender for all debts, public and private
also a Just, equitable and efficient means of distribution direct
to the people through the lawful disbursements of the govern
ment. '.'".7,'...'.-...--
We demand that tbe volume of circulating medium be speed
ily increased to aa amount sufficient to meet the demands of
the busiaesa and population of the country, and to restore the
jaet level of prices of labor and production. -
We favor 6U$ta"legis!a(iQn as will prevent for the future tbe
demonetization, of any kind of legal-tender money by private
contract, '' " T 'v':. f.' T ? -'"!' '7;'r ' : '
We demand that lbs government, in payment of its obliga
tions, hall qse its option as to' the kind of lawful. aoney in
which they are to be paid, and w denounce the oreseut and
preceding administrations for surrendering this option to tbe
holders of government obligations.
We demand that there shall be no further issue cf United
SUtes interest-beating bonds: -
We demand that postal saving banks be established by the
government for the safe deposit of the savings of the people
nd to facilitate exchange.
We demand the flection of United States senator! by direct
Tote of the people. ' ' "1
We demand tbe initiative and referendum system of law-making
in its optional form, local, state and national, and tbe sub
mission by congress of all important national questions for an
advisory vote of tbe people, nntil ench time as the national
constitutioa ahall have been amended sobs to provide for direct
legislation. . -
' We condemn aa dscgerous andnnjasttha surrender, in all
departments of the government, to the inSaance of trusts, cor-
poretiuns and aggregations of wealth generally; and the pack
ing of the highest courts of the land with corporation lawyers,
too ready to do the will of their late employers, and to set aside
ralid and wholesome laws passed by tbe legislative departments
of tbe slates and government, upon flimsy pretexts, at the be
hests of such institutions.
We ars opposed to government by injunction.
n Uts matters, we demand ; V
A simple and well-guarded registration law. V
A more equitable mode of appointing jadges of election.
Ssringent laws to regelate the operation of fish traps, fish
w hels and all Cehirj gear In the waters within the juiisdic
t;oa of the state. - -. ' -
We drooucce and ronJemn the corrupt and extravagant re
publican legislative assemblies, and charge that the republican
party, in its eagerness for the spoils of office, has become di
vided into warring factions, so that-it is incapable of govern
ment as exemplified by the con licioa existing in the office of
the state treasurer, there being at this time more than 9500,000
therein wrung from the people by the process nf taxation,
while state warrants are stamped "Not paid for want of
funds."
We demand that all district and county officers D9 placed
upon salaries commensurate with the duties to be performed
by them.
Inasmuch as railroad and other corporate property is not
bearing its proportion of taxation, we demand that such prop
erty shall bear its just and equal share of the expenses of gov
ernment. ... '.. ,.
" " The Populists Convention. ; -
Chairman Hogue called the populist convention to order at
9:15, and pointedly stated to those present that business would
be the order of te day, and that business must -e done. Then
he introduced Secretary Kirkwood, of tbe fusion committee
who read the following report, addressed to the populist con
vention: Governor : Populist
Secretary of State. . .... k .... . .. .......... .Silver Republican
Treasurer Uemociat
Supreme judge. Democrat
Attorney-general . , ............ Populist
State printer. ....... i .Populist
Puolic instruction. Populist
Congress, f!r6t district ...Democrat
Congress, second district , Silver Republican
"All of which is respectfully submitted.
"William S. Cko well,
, "Chairman.
"W. R. KiKKWoon, Secretary.
When Secretary Kirkwood finished reading the report, be
moved adoption of the same.'
Ernest Kroner, of tbe Multnomah delegation, one of the com
mittee for the populists, was accorded the floor, and said :
Preliminary Argument.
"Before action on the report is taken, I want to say some
thing. The union of forces is drawing too close, apparently,
one way or another. 1 want to say that the report read comes
from the entire committee, and not from the nine men you
delegated to become members of tbe same. It was adopted by
a majority vote. It is untejessary to speak of the labor we un
derwent, but I do want to say that it was understood that the
populists should bs given one of the congressional representa
tives and two or more of the state offices. The democrats were
willing to concede us his. ' -
"If it is not desired, on your part, to accept the report, the j
democrats will join you in giving us what we. desire, all they
ask being the governor and one more state officer, giving us
alt the rest. I believe that the democrats will favor suwh ap
portionments! offices. If we give the democrats tbe governor,
they will give us everything else, excepting the secretary of
state, which baa been accorded to the silver republicans
"Tbe proposition now standB before you. -1 know tbere is
likely to be an acrimonious assault made, on the report. The
allotment is not satisfactory, but we cannot get all we want. I
-am willing to take the democrats at rjieir word, making suitable
provision for the eilvf r republicans and the matter should be
disposed of quickly by you. In case you do not approve the
conference report, it would be well to accept tbe democratic
proposition." v ;
" U'Ren of Clackamas admitted the report was unsatisfactory,
and would not please all, but he was satisfied with tbe report,
as it would be better to have tbe governor than a member of
congress.
"Suppose,' he said, "we give the law-making power to the
democrats. The position of governor was the most important
one, and it seems to me it is the best to acoept what has been
given us. Suppose we refuse now to accept the report, what
position would we be in? In what condition could we go be
fore the people? The democrats and silver republicans have
no platform. Can we afford to throw it over? We would not
have a foot to stand upon. I don't liko tbe report, but, having
agreed to our platform, if not accepting the report of the com
mitted we cannot afford to go before the people of Oregon op
posing it. ' It wonld be the ruin of the people's party. .
Y Nominations Blade.
The report of conference committee on appointment of offices
was adopted by. a large majority, and the result heartily
cheered. " v ' : , ; - '
Nominations for state offices were declared in order, and Q.
F. McAulay, of Baker, took the floor. He d .d not know tbat
the five-minute rule for. s peaches had been adopted, and be
fore he got half way in bis speech declaring a public office a
public trust, "eyes of tbe world on ,ns," etc., and before he
had named his man, tbe chair called him down, There were
cries of "Go on!" but a member from Columbia objected.
McAulay was allowed time enough to state tbat W. R. King, of
Baker, was the man be proposed to nominate.
- Parsons, of Umatilla, nominated Nathan Pierce, whom he
denominated as one of the old guard of populism. Jory named
John B. Waldo, and the question waa immediately raised
whether Waldo was a populist.
Kroner, of Multnomah, was recognised. lie was in tbe in
terest of no one candidate, and would like to place in nomina
tion a populist. To the surprise of every one, he nominated
Sylvester Pennoyer.
The other nomination made for governor was Joseph Gat
ton, of Multnomah, by Nelson, and seconded by Welch.
- It required five ballots to decide who the nomination should
go to, resulting in fftvor of King on the first ballot. . From the
time tne nrst ballot was cast, it was seen tbat the choice would
be between Waldo and King. Both showed formidable
strength, and when the second ballot was announced, showing
there was no choice, Nathan Pierce withdrew in favor of King,
of Baker. - -
Tbe nominations made for attorney general were: J. L.
Story, of Wasco; William Parsons, of Umatilla; A. B. Axtell,
of Josephine; B. P. Welch, of Multnomah; L. A. Ward, of
Multnomah. It required two ballots to secure the nomination,
ending in a victory for Story. '.'
For state r rinter, tbe fallowing nominations were made : J.
S. Meg wen, of Coos; F. A. Sanford, of Columbia Q. Alexan
der, of lAnn j W. . Vanderberg, of Coos j Charles A- fttgh. of
Clackamas.
Vanderberg declined to be a candidate, and on the first bal
lot Fitch wa-t nominated, tbs vote standing, Fitcb, 129; Alex
ander, 39; McEwen, 34; Sandford.'lO.' The election of Fitch
was made unanimous. "
Tbe candidates for state superintendent of public Instruction
were) U.S. Lyman, of Clatsop: W-H. Mjsrriu, of Joseph
ine, and C. C. linden, of Yamhill. The vote was; "Lymaa
115; Linden, 65 j Merritt, 24 ;
Tnis closed the work of nominating candidates for the state
offices, so fai s populists were concerned, and the convention
next attended ta their joint legislative and judicial district
nominations. .
'The Democrats.
After adopting the report, tbe convention adjourned to meet
again in the afternoon, to proceed witn the one congressional
and two state nominations. .-i., . .. s
The convention of tbe first Congressional district delegates
came together at 1 o'clock, for the purpose of nominating a
congressman, and organise! by electing Frank Derby perman
eat chairman. Calvin was nominated, bnt withdrew, and
p'seed in nomination Robert M. Veatch. J. K. Weatherford,
of Albany, then nominated W. R Bilyeu, of Linn, styling him
4 the Oibraltar of democracy." The ballot was closed, and tbe
result in doubt, nntil the tellers announced the result, Veatch,
74; Bilyeu, 68. W. R. Bilyeu immediately moved that Veatcb's
election be made onanimaua, and the motion was carried.
Before tbe delegation adjmrned, a resolution was introduced,
endorsing W J. Bryan, and pats-id without a dissenting voice.
Tbe general convention then reaosembled..
Tbe contest for supreme judge was' short. W. R. Bilyeu, of
Albany, nominated John ilurnett, of Benton county.
Judge Bennett, of Wasco county, in nominating W A. Ram
sey, said : I take pleasure in naming for tbis peculiarly demo
cratic part of the ticket a man whose record as a lawyer is ex
celled by no man in this state. I name William M. Ramsey,
of Yamhill county."
The nominations being seconded respectively by Bryan, of

A PgAPlY STRUGGLE.
Two, Indian! Engaged in Drunken
Fight and Onj is Killed.
An Indian whose white name wai
Nobsdy and whose siwseh agnomen
sounds something like "Nox-ws-nocks-nsbf
' was foood with his neck broken
on tbe reservation tbis morning, savs
Monday's Esst Oregquian- The body
was found in a Una ea top of tbe hill
two re Us above Cayase station and 18
mites from Pendleton.
From all reports concerning tbe affair,
Nobody gave some money to an Indian
named Jim Kanina to buy whifky with
at Athena. Kasiua accomplished bis
mission, and returned to tbe reserva
tion. The fracas occurred Saturday
night after bis return, for just what
reason is impotible to say. It seems,
however, that Haoina went ioto his
bouse alter tbe bottle, and was ahssnt
too long to suit Nobody, who od off
with both hones. The angry Kanina
followed op oq foot and. caught op with
Nobody in the lane.
At this juncture, it appears, the two
Indians began drinking liberally out of
the bottle. When they, were both fulll
of the tanglefoot Nobody's action in
riding off with the horses started a quar
rel. Both dismounted and engaged in
a rough and tumble skirmish, the ap
pearance of tbe ground indicating that
ths struggle must have been a deadly
one. Bunches of long, coarse hair were
found, showing that tbe combatants
made frantio efforts to remove each
other's scalps by band, neither being
armed, Finally,' it is supposed, Kanina
get Nobody down, and jerking his head
buck by the hair broke bis neck. Sever
al cots and bruises were found on the
dead Indian's head.
Sunday, the day after the tragedy,
Kanina seemed to bs in a repantant
mood, end told a friend about his
drunken fight with Nobody, saying that
bs might bave killed him, but be didn't
know. This led to an investigation,
with the result that the body was dis
covered. a.antna'8 arrest by tbe Indian
police promptly followed, and he is now
in tbe ekookam house at the Agency, .
It Did Not Last.
A lucky individual who has been re
siding temporarily in Pendleton was
given a quarter a recent afternoon and
in a few minutes he was bucking the
markets in a faro speculation. . The
tiger claws for a moment lost their
savage nerve before the audaoity of the
new comer, and eighty "plunks' fell
from their clasp. But the money came
easy and likewise it went, helped along
in its fleeting way by the spirit of liquor.
The man lost his head, and before the
next night be bad only ten dollar gold
piece, which be was rerklegsly flinging
from one side qf the street to the other.

John Leonard Executed fcr the Mur.
der of MalquUt,
The legal execution of John Leonard
for the murder of Jaoob Malquist, at
Texas City, occurred at Colfax. Fridav
afternoon, in the presence of fully 1000
people.
Leonard was brought from the jail
and ascended the scaffold steps unassist
ed, at 1 :lfl o'clock. Father Kearna, at
ths request of Leonard, read a short final
statement protesting his innoceaoe cf
watui murder.
At 1 :21 Leonard stepped on the trsp
and shook bands with the officers and
reporters. '
At 1 :24 a voice called out, "Good-by,
Jack," and Leonard responded in full
tones, "iood,-by. Charley.' As the
last words left his Hps the trap was
sprung, and Leonard dropped six feet,
the bod" rebounded slightly and then
hung atark, not a .movement of the
muscles being noticable. The bod;
bung 13 minutes, wben he was pro
nounced dead by the attending physio
ians. Leonard on the scaffold, although
showing nervousness, looked about at
tbe surrounding crowd. The body was
at once taken in charge by Father
Kearns, and conveyed to the cemetery
and funeral exercises held,

Special Correspondence We left Port
land January 13, on tbe Alaska Steamer,
Geo. W, Elder, and landed at Skagway
the 22. We had a very pleasant trip
although we did get landed on a sand
bar, got stuck in two mud banks and
j"nt graied a rock.
There were over four hundred pas
sengers on board and all day the decks
were full of people admiring the beauti
ful scenery. In the evening they sang,
played and told stories in the "Social
Hall," except wben the boat rocked, and i
then no one was able to sing or play or
even look at the scenery. We traveled
about 000 miles on water and we were
all glad when we reached Skagway.
Skagway is a very pretty little city, full
c lite and "rustle." it is situated in a

long and a mile wide Its population is
about 9,000 and although there is four
wharfs, the steamers are coming in so
fast that they have to wait for their turn
to po unloaded and they always nave as
many passengers as they can carry.
There are new business houses going np
every day and most of them are large
and handsome. Very near all of the
dwelling houses are made of logs, the
average size is Jsm the roots are
just boards laid on and tar-paper laid on
over them. They are very warm and
cosy. The city Is very nicely lighted with
electric lights.
, Almost every line of business is repre

ing well. A new wagon road has been
made from here to the summit of White
Pass, and they ship freight up there in
wagons, two horses can, at one load,
pull a ton of freight clear to the summit,
which is 18 miles from here.
It has been very cold, bat It is just
like spring now, and thsro is no snow
only that which is on the peaks of the
mountains, but the mud is very deep
since the thaw bas commenced. Pack
trains are leaving I ere daily for Lake

mules or poqws in a train. Dogs and
