Y.Kirtpatrlck, Publisher. THE CHIEF POINTS OF DOC TRINE OF THE GREAT RE PUBLICAN 2yARTY. Ist Monday the Chicago conven tion placed lu nomination for Presi dent, Oen; Ben. Harrison, of Indiana; for Vice-President, Levy P. Morton, of Jev York. Following is a synopsis of the platform adopted: The platform opens with an eloquent tribute to 'the first great leaders of t he republican part-, Abraham Lincoln, and the more recent leaders recently passed from earth, Grant, Garfield, Arthur, Ixgnn and Conkling. .The The name of Sheridan is al reoiilted with greetings and prayers for his re. oovery. Fraternal eoneratulations are sent to Brazil upon the emancipation of slavery in that realm; and sympathy vith the Irish on the home rule ques tion is expressed. Unwavering devotion to the con stitution and the indissoluble union of states, and to the personal liberty of every citizen, native or foreign, black r white, rich or poor, is reaffirmed. Effective legislation to secure the freedom and purity of the ballot is de manded, md the present Democratic majority in Congress is arraigned as guilty of suppressing the ballot by a criminal nulifivatioii of the constituti tion and laws. It favors reduction of revenue by a repeal of the tobacco tax, and the tax upon spirits used in the arts and for mercantile purposes and by such re vision of the tariff as will check im ports of articles produced by our peo ple, find a release from duties on ar ticles of foreign prodnetian which can not be duplicated at home, and if this is not sufficient, the entire repeal of in ternal revenue taxes. It is opposed to the introduction of foreign contract labor and of Chinese labor, and demands the rigid enforce ment of the laws intended to restrict and eventually exclude the same. It declaresopposition to combinations of capital organized into trusts, re affirms the policy of securing tne pub lic domain to homestead settlers and American citizens established by the party in lSt2, and advocates the restor ation cf unearned railroad grauU to the people. Reduction of letter postage is de manded and the free school system of the nation is indorsed. Appropriations are demanded for the early building of our navy, the con struction of our evast fortification for the payment of jn?t pensions to soldi ers, for the improvement of our chan nels and harbors to the benefit of in ternal, coastwise and foreign commerce and for the payment of our national public debt. The platform concludes by inviting the comparison of patriotic men of ail naira or,.--) aeruuialK. oil WArL-i n 1 ' ' . . . ,. men, w ith the free trade pohev and J censurable acts of the present adminis-j tion. rnhlic Speaking. Mr. S. P. Putman delivered a lecture in Union hall on Wednesday evening on "Free Thought." lie declined to divide time with Rev. Clark Braden, whereupon the latter gentleman re plied in the Preshyterian church. The following were the points at issue: First, personal liberty was abridged t,y the recognition of God in the con stitution: second, it was unjust to tax payers not to tax churches and church property; third, that an appeal to God in affirmation, as the awarder of truth and avenger of falshood, did not aid the cause of truth; fourth, that the Christian Sabbatfi was derogatory to morals and oppressive to the people. These were the positions taken and affirmed by Mr. Putman and replied to by Mr. Braden. As a public jour nalist we simply give the above facts, as a citizen we are for our country vs. Mr. Putman, as a professed moralist and Christian we regard Mr. Putman's views as dangerous to the state and pu'ovisive of morals and religion. Mr. Editor: The republicans have nominated Gn. Benjamin Harrison, of Indiana, for president and ex-Governor Levi P. Jilorton, of New York, for vice-president. The nomination of Harrison virtually places the doubtful state of Indiana in the republican column. The principal issue of the campaign will be the presidents recent message and the Milis bill as endorsed by the national democratic . convention and the protection of American industries and labor as set forth in the republican national platform. The contest will he a close and exciting one and will be decided by the votes of the states of New York, New Jersey and Connect icut. It will be measurable free from personal attacks and private charges, and the derision made will determine whether the American system shall be maintained or whether it shall give way to foreign influences and policies. The outlook at the present is favorable to the republican nominees. Oe-sebver. Ho-est Home Industry. The Cheadle cheese manufactory is a credit and honor to this section. No one need have any hesitation in buying and using these pure, home-made cheese. Mr. R. Meseier has had nine vears experience in this work, and this is his third year with Mr. Cheadle. He was raised in Canada, where he fi:st learned the art. Clean, honest work is their motto. The capacity of the factor- is about one hundred pounds Kt isv, ' WASHINGTON LETTER. Biuce I last wrote, you Congress has been discussing such questions as gov ernment bond buying, tho tariff, the fisheries treaty, silver and matters of local interest, such ss relates to the District of Columbia, the latter having been much neglected of lateon account of the pending Tariff bill. The President has been quit tip pur suing his daily routine business, has hu been enjoying his renomination of course, and has had his sympathies ex cited by the cases of criminals in dif ferent parts of the country, a number of whom are to be released through his pardon. The Democratic Congressmen who attended the Pt. Louis National Con vention had scarcely settled themselves in their seats again when the Republi can members left for their Convention at Chicago. All is not well with Con gress during Presidential campaigns. Legislation sutlers because ol the ab sence of members, and those who re main cannot debate any question with out interlarding it with campaign talk entirely irrelevant to the subject. On Monday, w hile the District Po lice bill was under consideration, Rep resentative Btruble, of Iowa, arraigned the majority in Congress for giving no attentiou to the demands for temper ance legislation, declaring that it was prohibition or substantial restriction of the sale of liquor in the District of Columbia that was needed morjthan increased police or police facilities. The committee to which the temper ance bills had been referred was at tacked by Mr. Dingley for its remiss ness in not having reported back these measures. He said the arrests for drunkenness in the Btate of Meine were not more than one-tenth the num of such arrests in the District. The District Committee was defended by Mr. Rowell, one of its members, who said it had had all the work it could do, and that it had been depilved by the Tariff bill of five days to which it was justly entitled for the disposal of its business. Mr. Campbell, Chairman of the Alcoholic Liquor Traffic Com mittee, said his bills would have been acted upon but for the failure to get a quorum of his committee. On the question of prohibition, he said his committee was awaiting the action of the Senate committee. Secretary Whitney, of the- navy, will neither affirm nor deny the rumored report of his retirement from the Cab inet if Mr. C leveland is re-elect eit . n November. lie does deny, however, that he is in ill health, and states that had he any intention of leaving the Cabinet he would consider it his duty to inform the President before any one else. That the Secretary has been some what dissatisfied of late is an ojvn secret, it having been caused partly by the quarrel between the line and staff, which shattered the unity of the navy to an extent-. Several other minor matters, such as the slowness with which the manufacture of the guns for the new naval cruisers has been carried on, have tended to increase his annoy ance, and in conversation he has not hesitated to express his opinion on the subject with great freedom. One of the newest sights of the Cap ital is the gospel wagon. It is a church on wheels, and is one of the agencies used by the workers of the Union Mission. Every Sunday it passes from i one point 10 Hiiomer wiifre prewuing services are held, and nearly every evening it carries Christian works on their evangelistic trips. Different churches in the city are interested in the work of the mission, and the ir rep- resentatives take part in the mcctines . , , t .. , ber of the churches have some one evening in the week when they take charge of the gospel wagon and con duct the services at the several localities in the city where the services are held. The purpose is to reach that class of people who do not go to church and have no church connections. The church is in this way brought to them. This field of operation for the wagon is the outskirts of the city. It is twenty feet long by seven feet wide and six and a half feet high. The wheels are low and of the same size, so that the box can turn on them, and all of the running gear is unusually large and strong, having been made to order just for the purpose. When on its way to a meeting the wnpon, drawn by four horses, looks iike a new kind of excursion vehicle. When it stops for a meeting it is quickly transformed into a comfortable little pulpit and choir platform, with the organist ready to play at d the leaders and sing ers standing in front. An Oregon Valley. The June number of The West Shore rasgazine is accompanied by a large colored supplement of the Chchalem valley, one of the sub-valleys of the beautiful aDd famous Willamette. The Chehalem valley is one of the leading fruit raising sections of Oregon, and from a descriptive article in the maga zine it appears that much choice fruit land is for sale there at from f 15 to f "5 per acre. The number also contains au illustrated article on Washington county, also & portion of the fertile Wilamette valley, wuich offers good ann cheap homes to thousands. Other descriptive articles, poetry, fiction and a large amount of valuable informa tion about the entire northwest com plete the number.
