Mr. Daly'H Record.
Dr. Daly'a record on the money ques
tion lg well known. . Ke wan an ardent
Supporter of Mr. Bryan in 1890, and con
t.-ibuted lrrgtly to the result in Lake
county, hie home, whereby the county
gave Bryan a good majority although the
county is stronglv repub'lcan. At a
member of the Legislature for a period
of six years, Dr. Daly's vote and voice
were always recorded in favor of every
resolution a-d question relating to the
free and unlimited coinage of silver, and
as chalrmun of the Democratic commit
tee on Flatform 10 I89S at the s'ate con
vention, signed and endorsed the con
ference report on platform, which was
adopted by populists, democrats and b!!
ver republicans. Abb member of tie
senate, he was on two evasions given
the complimentary vute of the populists
and democrats for president of that
body.
His record as a legislator is clean in
every reepest; he is the author of the
Homestead Exemption Law, ae well as
of the act repealing the Railroad com
mission to which the republicans point
with pride in their stale platform. He
aleo introduced and had passed the bill
requiring county clerks to take acknow
edgements in peneiou matters free of
charge. It was he who introduced sen
ate resolution No. 12, which passed unan
imously, as follows, to-wit :
"wbereaB, the people of the State of
Oregon, regardleis of party affiliation are
desirous of expressing their deep feelings
of gratitude to and their rdmiration tor
the courage of the Oregon soldiers who
have so nobly offered their lives in de
fense of oppressed humanity, in aveng
ing the Iobs of the Maine, in behalf of
civilization, and 10 maintain the honor
and prestige of the American flag; and
"Whereas, the heartB of Borne of our
people are bleeding as a result of the loss
by sicknecs or in battle of some loved
ones to them niOBl dear; therefore, be it
"Resolved by tho senate, the llouee
concurring, That the congratulations
vnd admiration and confidence of the
people of the State of Oregon, be and
the same ie hereby extended to the Ore
goo soldiers in the Philippines, and that
the sympathy of the people be, anj the
same Is hereby, extended to the mourn
ing frlcndo of the heroic dead. That the
Secretary of State, be and is hereby re
quested to transmit a copy of these reio
utions to the commanding officer of the
Oregon regiment at Manila, and that
said officer be, and be is hereby request
ed upon receipt of such copy to cause
the eame to be read in each company of
bis said regiment."
pvUlt vote on every proposition coming
bebre the legislature was on the side of
right and justita;
He settled in Lake county in 1887, and
by industry and economy has accumulat
ed Borne property . He has some inter
in the Bank of Lakeview, a private
banking institution, but the bank has
never foreclosed a mortgage and lias
.Beyer forced a co'lectlon or B'led any
one,
He Is a thorough scholar, "a pleasant
gentleman, and will faithfully represent
the people of the first district in Con
greBB.
The splendid record made by the prosent
farmer judge will convinco any one I hat a
man dosen't have to be a lawyer to bo a
county Judge acceplablo to tho people.
A low tax levy with tho inloroats of the
county well taken euro of is what ie need
ed, not tho oxlravagant. povernmont of
it any counties run by men entirely oit of
joint with the poople. Mr. Palmer is
otitirely in sympathy and in toujh with
the interests of the people of the county,
be will promoto those movements already
begun for tho betterment of the county
roads and county institutions. With him
at t'io head Iho one mill tax for road im
provements will bo kept up and (he plans
already under way advanced. Ho it
throughly in favor of keeping up our brid
ges and roads as they should be, And will
continue to do so with n low tax levy.
The interests of tbo county cannot bo plac
ed in bettor handi than those of him and
Mr. Sprengor, the efficient candidate for
commissioner, and tne hold over commis
sioner Mr. Swann, who has in a marked
manner shown his filnoso for the position.

Tl.e gist oi the Clark senatorial decis
ion ie that lomo things come too biu to
be good.
: Possibly Mr. Quay may manage to
shove a few boultiers in ibe way of (he
McKinley triumphal car this ta'l. He
aays ht Mark and Mac "did'' him and
he doesn't care v.uo knows it.
By the way, General Kitchener haeen't
added very conspicuously to his reputation
in South Africa. He should have stuck
to North Afiica and kept away from "the
grave) ard of reputations ''
Qieja friends now announce that hit
influence will be thrown to defeating the
ship subsidy bill in revenge for his exclus
ion from the Senate. This is almost too
good to be true, it is eery seldom that
two such rerutible birds can be killed
with one Btone.
By a majority of one, the Sanate has
decided !o adhere to precedents and ex
clude Mr. Quay from a seat In that body.
While ail the older Democratic Senators
adhered to their position in the (Joruell
case, about a dczen Republicans deliber
ately reversed themselves, partly outof lik
ing for Quay personally and partly because
they feared his vengeance if thev voted
against bim.
Senator Wellington of Maryland, has
bolted the Republican ticket and platform
in advdee of the convention. The Demo
cracy, however, is not very proud of his
accession to its ranks. Wellington is
about as small potatoes in eveij Bense as
a Senator could well be.
If Russia and Japan intend to fight,
they had better go ahead and do it. The
preformance is already a good deal behind
hand and the gallery is getting impatient.
Washington is struggling to get rid of a
school superintendent whose methods have
been shown after a long and careful prac
tical test to be worse than useless;, but he
happens to be from Illinois, and both the
Senators and Representatives from that
stale have united in an effort to keep his
job for bim, despite the fact that the
Washington schools are far behicd others
of the same grade in other parts of the
country.
This fall for the fifth lime in history,
the occupant of the White House will be
opposed for re-election by the candidate
whom he defeated four years before . It
is a significant that on each of the four
former occasions, the man in the White
Houso has boen defeated . After Novem
her 8 there will be fiv e cases of ttis in
stead of four.
At Secretary Hay's request, the Sultan
has renewed his note for the American
ditnngea, adding that when the paper is
worn out he will be pleased to renew it
or.ee more.
Our Washington correspondent says
The broad streak of yellow down the
backbone of the McKinley administra
tion, the exhibition of which disimsled
bo many Americans during the neeke
which immediately preceded the war
with Spain, .Is again in full view of the
wo: Id. The present exhibition is con
nected with our relations with Turkey.
Only a few days ago, all of the well
known disseminators of semi-official
news, in Washington, were sinning a
song of jingoism and filling the nnwepa
pei men with thrilling stories of the red
hot demand the administration had
made upon the Sultan of Turkey, to set
tie those longstanding missionary claims
at once, and intimating that if the spon
dnlix was not at one) lorthoouitng, an
American fleet would be sent into Turk
iih wators to forcibly collect it. These
stories were duly sent out but they did
not fire the country even a little tiny
bit, the people not being in a jingo hu
mor. But they did something else.
They brought an intimation from Russia
in the politeet diplomatic language that
there were reasons which made it in
cumbent upon Russia to object to any
forcible collodion of claims from the
Sultau. That threw Secretary Hay into
a blue funk, almost as bad as would
have followed a snubbing by an English
lord, and straightway the ye low Btreak
in the administration backbone was un
covered, to add to the gaiety of nations
and to the humiliation of Americans,
and the official announcement made that
til i a government had at no time intended
to go beyond diplomatic insistence in
trying to make the Sultan pay that
claim.

According to an interview in the Tele
gram with Dr. Daly, the onion candidate
for congress, he thinksjhe will cany
every county in the district but Tilla
mook with Marion and Clackamas as
doubtful . This reads rather strong, but
it need not surprise the people of the
district if this prove true. The more
that is learned of the record of Mr.
Tongue the lesa become his chances for
re-election. He is just the kind of man
the country does not need at Washington,
a man ruled entirely by the bosses above
him, answering to every paity lash re
uardlesB of bis honest convictions. In
stead of gaining influence by Iris two
terms in congress as a etrong man would
he is as weak as when be entered con
gress. His position on the liver and
harbor, committee does not seem to help
him any, judging fiom the manner in
which the Ysquioa Tappropria'ion went
bytheboarda. There is a ttrong eblU
mont among the people ttiat he ia con
trolled by Portland influences, though
representing the people ot another dis
trict. The man against bim is probab
ly the strongest who could bave been
named tn the diitrict, poeesBing a mark
ed personality, Bpleodld judgment and
absolute integrity, a scholar and a ae
bator, one of the people, the kind of
man the district r.eede.
The following from the Oregonian is a
sample of the republican argument ot
the day :
"Every man -that votes the F-ieion
ticket June 4 votes tn tie a millstone
about the neck of Oregon industry, to
throttl trans-Pacific trade, to continue
the subservience of tbiB Coast to the in
fluences that have hitherto held back its
progress. Every man ti.at votes the
fusion ticket June 4 votes to kill busi
ness in every Pactfic Coast city and sad
dle hardship on the .blldreu he will
leav behind him."'
Every word ot which is untrue, either
as to state or county government. Tarts.
Linn county. Under the BO-cal!ed fu
sion no county in the state has shown a
more progressive spirit, a fact testified to
by the new court house surrounded by a
cement walk, Ihe county infirmary, a
$1100 rock crusher for road improve
ment, etc. It would be the same in state
affairs but on a more economical basis
than under the extravagant republican
system .
Thia kind of talk uo longer frightens
intelligent people.
It is staled that in care the English
win in tho South African war the Boers
will come to the United States for homes.
A sturdy, honest, Chrieiian peop'e, we
hope they will. We have pleuty oi land
left for thorn right horo in Oregon with
out going to the Philippluo islands.
They would mike good citizens.
Has ( ny one ever recti a word ot sym
pathy in a republican pnp-r for the
struggling Boers in South Africa, in their
efforts to letaiu their liberty. Tlil-s Is
significant, and s..ow3 where tho ten
dency ol the party is .

W. F. Hammer, Demoeratic-Peoplee
Party Candidate lor County Clerk, hss
bees a re:ident ol, Albany tor Ihe past 18
years, and has held numerous positions
of trust and responsibility during that
period. He was nominated fur county
clerk on the populist ticket six years aao,
and although be waa defeated be polled
very large vote. Bis defeat at that
time waa owing tc the fact that the entire
republican ticket was elected. He is a
very popular young man of much ability,
and one in whom all have the greatest
faith. lie ie a good busireES man, and
thoroughly qual-fled to fill the position
to which he aspires. His nomination
was almost by the unnniraoi a vote of the
convention, and waa made so upon mo
tion of his opponent belore tbe conven
tion. Should he be eucceeeful in beiog
elrcted be will doubtless hand's the
affairs of the county in a busineas like
manner, and to the thorough satisfaction
of every voter of the county. Daring

a single utterance made against aim or
his abilitv to properly conduct the affaire,

Senator Wellington gives tbe teasons
wb) be will not support McKinleyism
anv longer: .
"I bave been opposed to tbe acquisition
of the Philippines as a permanent colony,
I was opposed to the 15 per cent on the
Porto Rico imports into this country.
This being rnv position I do Dot see my
way clear to euf poit the Philippine pol
icy of the president and the policy of 1 1 y
Ing a duly on Prto Rico when they' are
embraced in a national platform, I do
not intend tu support a platform that is
against my convictions in such import
ant particulars. 1 do not intend (0 10
uain a member of the national commit
tee, nor do I intend to attend the repub
lican national convention."
It is not generally known that a great
deal of Ihe paper money that ie couBtai.t
ly circulating ebout gets fnquent wash
ings, in the same way that tbe house siio
or maid goes at tbe dirty clothes on a
Monday morning, In some banks there
is a regular wash day every month,
usually at the beginning when a clerk
may be seen bent overatuband rubbing
real money up and down a washboard.

possible to do so. -

SATURDAY MIGHT THOUGHTS
This week ends with tbe South African
war in favor or the English, though not
materially. The band though is point
ing to ultimate English victory in a
manner that is quite emphatic. One
feature of tbe war that is of interest to
the United States is a statement that if
the Boers are whipped they will come
to the United States to take up their
home. We will welcome them. Wo
have people among ui now of theii
sturdy character, aud they make splen
did citizens, God-feaiiug men and wo
men, industrious farmers who make
everything count. Sixty thousind of
them in Oregon would add materially to
our wealth and prosperity, aod we would
have nothing to leal from them, a f eace-
able Cbri-tsan people who would reaper t
our laws and take up with our method p.
Our own war in the Philippines hae
b-conie if more importance than for
SJme time on account of a email Filipino
victory aud the new methods beiog em
ployed by I lie KilipinOB, of a character
to indicate that we bave an interminable
conteV on hand, something cloBe observ
ers have eeen ahead from the beginning
when we first tackled tbe elephant and
tried to tie lilin down.
V
Io cor g-o'S this week has eeen the
Nicaragua bill passed In Ihe house by an
overwhelming majority, but it is already
being rqueized by the m'dliouai res above
them, and there is little hopes of it be
ing a law this cession. It simply means
that the railroadB have a grip on 'he
critt-1 and ptope to hold it, f bis wi"
he in keeping with tbe (general conduit
of tbe prteent adminis'ration.
No invention of these wonderful days
strikes ens more forcibly than the kenet
eecope, which lias made noesible pictures
in which tbe characters in them move
true to thf parts they acted in life. In
life size one sees acted events which it
was not poBBible to witnees aa originally
performed. A squad of men enter a
trench and begin firing at the enemy be
yond, two men -fall as tne rest attack
'.be enemy ahead of them. Then from
behind the red cross men and women
ruBb forward and take charge of the
dead or wounded with the oullets flying
around them. This portrayed just aslit
happened brings the reality vividly into
one's mind. Scenes of the life of Christ
aa portrayed in the Passion Play seem
very realistic, and yet they aie only pic
tures of aclore representing the reality.
They may help one appreciate the reality
and yet there is something lacking from
the experience.
Mr. Daly la dci'y growing in popular
ity. The people are learning that he is
a first-class man, with a clean record.
He is fort3--t wo yeare of age, a graduate
of the Ohio Normal university and of
the medical department 01 the univer
sity of Louisville, Ky. He was a teacher
in the Ohio Normal university fo
awhile. He located in Lakeview in 1887
He has been representative and senator
from his county, carrying the county in
1896 for senator by 247 votes where the
republican state ticket was 150 ahead.
His standing in Lake county is attested
by the fact that he has been mayor, pres-1
ident of the agricultural society and
school director lor nine years, being ttie
present chairman.
Congressman Tongue is sewing on a
bis patch when he tries to fix up his
vote on the Porto Ricai tariff bill. Put- J
ting a tariff on people of the U. S. who '
have no reoreBentation even, whether 15 1
per cent, 1 per cent or a hundred, is un
constitutional and nearly every newspa
per in the United States regardless of
politics has protested against it, where
not underthe party lash. Mr. Simon is
entitled to credit for continuing to stand
by his original proposition.
Ei'genn Guard: Dr. Bernard Daly,
the Union nominee for congress, is the
man who made tbe long 125 mile ride
through the snows of Eastern Oregon,
with the temperature below zero, to at
tend the sufferers of the Silver Lake,
Klamath county holocaust on that awful
Christmas Eve of 1895 that bereft not a
few Lane county people of friends and
relatives. His personal sacrifices in or
der to minister professionally to the un
fortunate victims of that occasion en
deared him to all who were familiar
with the circumstances.
What's tho; matter. A year ngo on
Dewey day all tho flags were in the air.
ThiB year nearly everybody forgot to
raise their flag. Wonder if it is because
"Dewey is a democrat."
One day thia week the Democrat re
ceived a pro-ifoman sufferage article,
the next day the women themselves an
anti womon's sufferage series of pamph
lets red hot against women voting. 0
it goes pro and con.
Lawyer Newport is not the only per
son who has lost a dog, Ed Davidson's
water spiniel was recently Doisoued by

dog that will look alter his interests.

An English Victory.
Bkandfort, May 3. Brandfort was
captured by a 'combined -morement of
Cbionel Tucker's and General Pole Car
ew's divisions, on th the east and center
and General Hufon's Mounted Infantry
on the west. The British surprised the
Boers, who retreated hastily- Four
thousands of the euemv moved herd yes
terday evening'in order to oppos9 our
advance. ' Colonel Tucker's artillery had
a sharp dvel with the enemy's guns and
put two of them out of action.

Wabiii.votol, May 3. The senate will
not abandon its amendment to the Hay
Pauncefote treaty, and the Hepburn
amendments tr the Nicaragua canal
treaty aie considered practic illy in line
with tl.r treaty. The canal billjwill not
pasa fhe Senate, however, because the
amended iraaty ia not sat s'actory tn the
partias negotiating it, nor is the bill in
its pjesent torm satiffaciory to the Ad
ministration. Nt.t Llkeil.
Tun Dalles, May 3. The laying up of
the steamer Albanw py government in
spectors on account ol carrying too high
steam pressure has caused 'some excite
ment here, Many think that this was
the only hope of completing the por'ago
road ;or Spring and bummer trad, thus
keeping from them tho bulk of one
year's business, resulting in great finan
cial damage to the corporation.
Mr. Molir, tbe promotor of the road,
says that the Albany incident, while un
fortunate will in no way interfere with
construction and suppiy 0 material.
Proposed Fenian Raid.
Windsor, Ont., My 3. Colonel
Holmes, commauding officer of No. 1
military district has received instruction
from Ottawa to have five companies
ready to march at two hours notice.
This stepihas been deemed advisabU by
the military department cwind tn infor
mation that baud of Fenians intend in
vading Canada at some point along the
Rivers St, Claire or Detroit.
The Scofield Disaster.
Salt Lake, May 3. Tho latest dis
prtch lrom Scoffeld say that the extreme
essimate of dead is now conceded to have
been too large, and that it is impossible
to place the loss of life al 300 ns there
were not that many men in the mind.
The probabili ies are that 250 will be
about the total number of dead.

tion bill, and Cnairmnn Wolsott will re

Robert Plans.
London, May 8,4:10 a. m. The imme
diate objective of Lord Roberts is to es
tablish a line of British posts from one
frontier of the Free State to the other at
right angles with ,'he railway, thus pre
venting Boer raids southward. It is es
sential, therefore, that tho Boers should
be expelled from the rugged Thabanchu
district and be forced to retire to Lady

Washington. Mav 2 The Hnnw in.
day, at the conclusion of the most stormy
debate of the present session of CongresB
passed the Nicaragua canal bill by the
overwhelming vote of 225 to 35. All at

of the original bill for the fortification of
the canal, and fo still further strengthen -
tne language on that line were balked.
A Terrible Catastrophe.
Salt Lake City. Mav 2. A special to

" It seems that at least 250 men have
