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

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.

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. The West Shore is
the only publication on the Pacific
Coast making a specialty of describing
and illustrating the resources and in
dustriesof the great northwest, and
f-hould be taken by everyone interested
in, or desiring to learn about, Oregon,
Washington, Idaho, Montana, British
Columbia or Alaska. A large supple
ment in tints or colors, accompanies
every number. Published at Portland,
Oregon, by JL. Samuel, at lz.oi) per
year. Single copies, 25 cents.
Hon. Clark Braden, of Kansas is in
Lebanon lecturing on the subject
of infidelity. We had the pleasure
t of hearing this able and eloquent
speaker eight years ago in Texas, and
j can say that without doubt he is the
peer of any man on this subject;
j learned, erudite and witty, he never
fails to captivate his audience, present-
: ing facts m a clear aad logical mauner.
