"They are there In the Influential places. , Says that paper; "they have' the power - J and they don't use it te reward emo , tiatlc majorities." But 4k acts of history don't warrant (hat assertion. Ther Is the Buffalo Ex fls position that got an appropriation for the Government exhibition. New York ha a habit or going; Democratic on pro- . vocation. It elected Cleveland twice.' The .

If appro ,'fprlatlons are really to be Used to In ituenea electiona, and perbape tbey ar. rtiejfwttl hot fcted to be tiled lrt a state that la oildly and Wely Republican. Perhaps that accounts for the fact that lh State of Washington, which went for Bryan, and at the last election Chose a - Populist Governor, is peculiarly favored t by a Republican ad minis trstlon, not only in the matter" of appropriations, but in , the Government purchase and transpor tation of supplies for the Philippines. The ,.. Oregontaa know how that is, for hasn't It bevn firing double-leaded articles at Washington City for the past two or three year, eomplainlng of ' the. dls crimination of the Department in favor of Seattle and Against Portland? , As tba Oregonlan says, "Oregon Is a Repub ' llcan state?- frobably it Is the strong- est Republican aW to the Union, popu- -y latlon 'considered." - perhaps that ' ac counts for the milk that Is wanting in - the Oregon eocoanut .. i On the south of us, the discrimination In appropriations and Department busi ness la equally flagrant in favor of Call- fornia and San Prsnclsoo. Tb Oregon lan knows how that is4 too, for it ha 1 blistered the Administration for permit - ting: It to exlet California 1 Republl can when it get a "quid pro. quo," but ..ijt t an uneasy ut politically. It doe '' ,'not listen to G. O. P. eloquence, but , asks for the tuff. For this reasor it , is' always In a ataa of incipient erup tion. JBy reason whereof It get the Mutt. The . Repubitoaa, Senators don't tell California to."io oil and get a repute tlon a'nd then they wjli look at her." r She ha got the reputation, and they look , at her. But It 1 not the reputation Ore Ron ha got-that of being "the trong- V ett Scptibllcan state in the Union." - Tbla I not a very high plan of poll tie,' but sine the subject Is mentioned It might te a well, tn the language of the -Oregonlan, "to look this thing . jm'uaroly' In tha face." Even If we. had not the experience mentioned to Judge .,. from, it take only half an eye to see . the even a light break in the record of the "stronseat Republican state In ' the Union" would make her the most in "'"teresting ebjeet in the wnlvrse-to Re. . ' publican leader. In this local election .' they perhaps permit themselves, at the solicitation of Mr. Mitchell and the Ore gnlan, to be mildly Interested in an ' outcome about . which they are not un . eay, v lot Oregon . e put In the ' doubtful column forl04, and there would I' nothing too , food for US, To know . .th is true" is to have tlie commonest . .j rt of common sense. The Republican , leader don't wrty about the tricks they h ' : hold In their hand. If we make our state a doubtful trick we may make It worth playlsg for nd paying for. That Is one way to look at it. There v, I another. If the Oregonlan does not '; slander the Senators It mentione Hanna, Allison, Aldrich, Lodge and Prye it is a. hold-up. Oregon is a member of the ' American ooramonwealth, and ti auch , It entitled to recognition. IP WEjMUSTk PURCHASE WHAT OT RIGHT BE . J.0NO3 TO Hi. ONLT BY VOTING FOR THE MATTHEW CANDIDATES AND IttBT LOSE I3BT VOTINO AGAINST . THE MATTHBWi -MACHIKE, THEN THE QUESTION IS NOT OP POLICIES Oil POLITICS ANT LONGER. IT IS BLACKMAIL, XKT THE ONLY ANSWER FREEMEN CAN MAKE TO IT 10 TO WIPB THE CONCERM OFF STAB FACE t)F TUB EARTH. " ,.;.. THE MAYORALTY, Th question betwwn udge'1 Williams and Mrv Inmafe "relatss'ta 4he business Interest of.thU olty.-Jt doe hot relate to the Philippines or to National politic. Jain trauma. fcowaTar. has Uka iipoa ( blmaelg the burdeaoc pttreljr political i campaign. This ft in Itself a confession that tha obicuratio-wof the real quesUo Is neoesaary to hi candidacy. If he were aT candidate now for United States Senater. where National question would be within the province of Ws duties, the dlcuioa would1 be pertinent. Being a candidate " for the Mayoralty only. It would seem that the . duties of the Mayoralty would better deserve hi at tention. ' - As between himself and' Mr. Inmcn, personally, it may he assumed tbat both are men of honor an4 good intentions. A comparison of the two men, however, Is legitimate In ?espef of their qualifi cations Jor the office. Judge Williams' age Is against him. Thi will not be an Insuperable objection to those who wish to vat for him oa sentimental ground, fiut even these will admit that bis age and decrepitude must he a seri ous instrument of men more cunning and less able thacr himself. This estimate of blm W not made her for the first time orMnerely for use in this campaign. It I est known to those who know him best His friend and admirer, Mr. Scott, has shown how easily and completely, albeit honestly, he has lent himself to men who have deceived him and to' de signs he was not able to penetrate.. As creditable to his heart as Is this child-llke-fatth, it Vs not a quality to Insure a business administration for the City of Portland.1 . In these respect, Mr. Inman Is Just tos opposite of his competitor.' lie Is In ths prmo of life and healthy vlgror. At the hfrad of a lart and sxaotlns husl new, hi dy Ufs HlustraUs thoe high executive qualities, without which the business of the alty--rflor than a large private business cannot be successfully conducted. But theao consideration aside, there Is another that ought to be decisive. Judge William' administration would be Jack Matthews' administration. Th Infirmity of purpose and disposition which the Ore gonlon has heretofore so kindly and deli cately pointed out, woud give 'to Mat thews a Mayor ready-made to his hand. Jaok knows this as well as Mr. Scott ever di& - That Is the reason Judge Wil liams l the candidate. Jack la not in politics for fun. He know that the city patronage and spoils constitute the most valuable assets of hit ring. It la not conceivable that, having the nomination la his hands, fa would knowingly let It slip through hi fingers. He la not s bent on reform as to turn over this, the best fruits of his factional Victory, to be .dispensed Independent of his interest and his control. If Judge WUHams would not he Jack' Mayor It Would be only because Jaok has mad a mistake. And Jack does not make mis takes of that kind. If Judge Williams ho3 "been nominated by a free convention of Independent Re publican bound to the behests of no peculiar master, then if elected He might have made a muddle of the Mayoralty, hut It would have been an honest mud dle. But as It is, it would be a clear cut, purposeful administration, clear-cut and purposeful, solely in the interest of the Matthews machine. Event subsequent to th anti-Chinese agitation of im, and the consequent Chinese exclusion act, show that there ha never been , any real scarcity of capable white labor. But some people opposed the agitation because they thought otherwise. On February 4, 1886, the Oregonlan expressed it view on that subject in these words: "The one thing that made It possible for Chinese labor to obtain a hold that it has upon the commonplace Industries of the Pa slflo Coast has been the scarcity even th utter dearth of wllllnf , capable white labor." The laborers always knew bet ter, and now everybody knows better. There used to be a Chinese question, as there Is now. The Oregonlan, which Is now supporting the Matthews ticket. used to have an opinion about It. Look ing back now upon the hard fight -laborers have had to make their demands heard, some of them will recognize the following words quoted from the Ore- a-onlan of February 4, 18S6: . "Divested of the demagogy oi politicians', the bluster of agitators and the rant of prejudice, Chineselabor upon tha Pacific Coast pre-. aents no alarming features." The labor era thought otherwise, and they still think otherwise. Scott Is back East attending banquets, and laying facts and figures before the public (here showing the importance of the Lewis and Clark Exposition. But the Oregonlan here says there is no question as to the merits of the Exposition as far a an appropriation from the Govern ment is concerned. THAT DEPENDS UPON POLITICS. Josh Ballings once said : 'It were better some people did not know nigh so much than know so many things that are not true." This advice should he heeded by the Oregonlan's correspondents, who re port such large and enthusiastic audi ences at the various Furnish meetings Over the etate.

About the most laughable feature of this very amusing campaign Is the one great argument in favor Of their elec tion which th members of the Matthew Scott Leglsiatlve ticket are presenting; In public and private. They say that th election of the Cliiatns' Legislative ticket means the hauling down of the flag and the desertion of the Philippine. . Glow ing with th (Ire of blatant patriotism they denounce the traitors on the Citi zens' ticket. Not one of these men, however NOT ONE OF THEM-rthough tiny ar all young, strong and vigorous, not one offered himself to raise that flag which thuy now fear Is tb be pulled down. It was raised by McDonell and O'Neill of the Citizens' ticket and their brave comrades of the Second Orearon, Brave In deeds, not mouthing., Not a soldier is recognized irt the Matthews Scott assortment, yet they are all talk ing war, flag and glory. The Citizens,, however, presenting McDonell, O'Neill und Dr. 8. J. Barber, who fought during the Rebellion for the flag, are not thrust ing bayonets and powder into their hear ers' ears. - '! If the voters are to be influenced at all by these propositions It doe seem that actions should speak louder than words. Step Up Ye Traitor Soldiers. Captain McDonell and Private Oh, O'Neill, . f Step up here and give anwr true, To the terrible charge the Matthews Scott boys , "' Are making against both of you. Thy say you are traitors you want to . 1 haul down The flag which McQuin meed on high At storied Manila, when brava Billy Banks J For his country stepped forward to die. They say His your purpose to undo the work , Of Malar key and Hodson.,and Reed, Who boldly went forward, while you stayed at home ' In the hour of danger and need. Oh, shame on you! Shame! to' oppose these brave boys Whobroke the proud power of Spain With the force of their breath and who now are engaged In doing th same thing again. Go back and sit down-for that flag shall still fly Chairman Courtenay's on gaa-i night and day. Tou shan't pull it down;' no, sirsJack wants It up. 80 his boys will have SOMETHING to ' y- And you, Dr. Barber, just, atep to the .front. Tou fought through the whole Civil War, Then quietly came to your labors again A cltlien plain, as before. Yet you and McDonell and Private O'Neill Oh, shame on such traitorous act On th Clttsens' ticket permitted your name To appear, as a matter of fact The Matthews-Scott ticket, . you notice, is free From any uch soldierly strain Because while you're trying to pull th flag down They're shouting that it must remain. Go! Go foolish men, and In sackcloth repent. Spread the ashes of grief o'er your hair You shall not no, never haul down the proud flag THE SCOTT - MATTHEWS BOYS PLACED IT THERE. PIONEER'S REUNION.

Norwegian Independence. The Norwegians all over the world will celebrate .the 88th anniversary of the in dependence of Norway today. The Norwegians of Portland will celebrate the event by a fitting entertainment In Arion Hall. May 17 I the "Fourth of July" of Norway, as on that date, in 1814, the constitution was signed which made her independent after 800 years of tmbjee lion. to Denmark. In the treaty of Klal,- which followed the Napoleonic war, Denmark was forced to give the prov ince of Norway te Sweden. It was then that the constitutional ' convention was called and complete Independence decid ed upon. IN NEW POSITIONS. Wilbur E.

R. & N Co.Dl a few days both officials will have ac customed themselves to their aew duties and all will run smoothly. CLATSOP SITUATION The Astorians are Kindly to Democrats This Year. . . (Journal Special Servtcs.) , ASTORIA May 17. The political situa tion: In Clatsop County was found by th Democratic candidates to be- a most encouraging one. livery where Chamber lain buttons were to be seen, and the vaunted Furnish enthusiasm proved to be mythical to a large extent. Th pert sor.al reception ' to the candidates we warm And all afternoon they were kept, busy shaking hand With friends. ; The statement has repeatedly been made In a Portland and other Republican paper that Clatsop , eSlty had been polled and that th rsulP"showd Fur nlsh would carry the county by 00., Astoria Democrats' laugh at this aateV ment They say that the county has not been polled, so far as they have been able to ascertain, and claim that Fur nish cannot receive more than 200 ma jority. Chamberlain has more enthusi astic workers In Astoria than has Fur nish, and that the Democratic candidate will receive the greatest proportionate vote ever given a Democratic Guberna torial aspirant la assured. REPUBLICAN SUPPORTERS. A surprisingly large number of Repub licans are supporting Chamberlain, and it Is not an uncommon thing to find men working for Chamberlain and also for C. W. Fulton,, the Republican candidate for State Senator and an asplrank for thi United States Senate. Astoria Democrat say Fultoh will have bis hands full to defeat Dr. Henderson, the Democratic candidate for the State Senate, and are claiming the election of their candidates for Representatives, the election of one of whom Is conceded. Indications are that the Clttsens' county ticket will be generally successful. - . Almost every commercial traveler who "makes" Astoria is out for Chamberlain. These Itinerant find much amusement in taking straw ballots on the Astoria trains, and the results Indicate to a cer tainty the election of the Democratic candidate. The other day the well-known representative of a Portland wholesale houso came down with eight other "knights of the grip." In the chalrcar a straw, vote wa -taken which showed a majority of 15 for Chamberlain. Of the nine commercial travelers, eight sup ported Chamberlain. Later a straw vote was taken In the smoking-car and a ma jority of 11 was shown for the Multnomah man. These little things are filling the Democratic heart with delight, and If Chamberlain isn't elected there will be great disappointment in old Clatsop. There has been no poll ' of Clatsop County, and even if one were made the result would be such as to deter the Re publicans from giving it out to the pub lic. BOMB REPUBLICANS LEFT. A large number of combine fishermen, estimated at 300 or more, have gone to Alaska this season and this will greatly reduce the. Republican vote this year. The Democrats claim that every man who votes the Citizens' Legislative ticket in Clatsop will also vote the Democratic state ticket, in which event Furnlsh's al leged walkover will not materialize. Old 1 party leaders say Clatsop will give Fur nish between 100 and W majority. Williamson's opposition to fishing leg islation has set the Oshermen against him, and it believed his vote in Clat sop and Columbia Counties will be very light. Gerdes, the Socialist candidate for Congress, 'will doubtless receive a large vote here, hi home' city.. The effort of the' Republican to Inject C. W. Fulton' United States Senatorial candidacy into the local campaign is fall ing flat, for the reason 'that a "home pride" did not figure materially with the Clatsop delegation when Geer tried to get the Republican, nomination this year. Mrs. Geer is an Astoria woman and the Governor has long bfttta warm friend of Astoria, but these things were entirely overlooked by Fulton,.: who sent a trad ing delegation to thOs state convention. It is Interesting In this connection to note that Geer figured on the vote of the Clatsop delegation up to the night before the convention, but the following day It went for Furnish. , Geer has many friends down here by tha sea and they do not approve of the throw-aown methods employed by th local boss. The Clatsop Republican push has many things to answer for this year, and the vote will show the truth of this statement COMMITS SUICIDE Read Mary MacLane's Book and Shuffled Off.
