-- The People's Party favors govern
ment ownership of railways and
telegraphs. We know from the
decisions, of our courts that all
. attempts to' regulate rates and
tariffs' are folly. Why, if the
Farmers' . Alliance could appoint
: the railroad Commission in every
; State they would not have gained
a dollar. They did secure it in
Iowa and Texa9, but the Circuit
Court of the United Stct-.'S decided
that the schedules of tariffs adopted
by the Commissions must be en
joined and could not be put into
operation until the court (a single
; judge)should3decide if it was pro
per.. The courts have decided that
any law which attemp3 to autho
rize any State or Interstate Com
mission to adopt rates and sche
dules otcharges for railways with
. out its being examined by a court
is invalid and this doctrine
. is affirmed by the Supreme Court
. of the United States. Nothing
. but revolution can change this.
- Yon are entirely at the mercy of
the opinion of a. judge, and what
rules have they laid down? Why,
that the income must be errough to
pay all interests on bonds, all
- operating expenses and also divi
dends on stock. Well, as they
have laws to increase bonda at
- pleasure and at any rate of interest
they desire and to -water stock at
pleasure, and as there is no evidence
of their operating expense except
as kept by themselves, where does
- this land the people? It. simply
allows them to demand all they
.' please. No income could be greater
than they could show they needed
tinder this rule. A11T means of
, control are at an end. Govern-
- jnent ownership is the only possible
xeniedy. Why should we-not. own
. .and operate them? Many Govern
ments do. this successfully, and
more cheaply for- the .people.- We
can save six hundred millions per
year at orc3, at least, by well-established
figures.

"ONE OF GOD'S NOBLEMEN".
Our space being limited we are
not prepared to give iii full the
grand speech delivered by Governor
Pennoycr at Rcseburgron October
1st. The Governor declared him
self out and out for the People's Par
ly and was listened to by an enthusi
astic audience numbering thous
andsYmorig .other things ho said :
-' V v ' ' "The npprcaeh
ifig presidential election' should not
6ectir without a: tiiir ; understanding
of Sve gcgat. issues involved,"-; and it
is for .the purpose of presenting those
.issues as plainly and .sincerely as
possible tiiat I jiow. address you. 1
shall today speak in defense of the
: selfsame measures I have heretofore
.advocated upon all occasions. 1
shall defend the doctrine, as here
tofore, that tiie bulk of federal tax
ation shoufd be levied upon the
wealth rather than upon the labor
and industries of the country ; that
there should be the free and equal
coinage of both gold and 'silver
money, that both should be a full
legal tender, and that the paper
money required by business in
terests should by issued direct by
the government rather than by pri
vate banking associations, which, i
like gold and silver, should be legal
tender. It is true, however, that in
advocating these measures now I
find myself outside of the political
organization to which I formely be
longed. But that is neither my
fault nor my misfortune. It is thi? j
fault, if not the misfortune? of the
late democratic party, which, hav
ing abandoned its principles, now
ought by right to aoandon its name."
"Fortunately for
the country a new party has entered
the political arena, in antagonism
to both of the old -parlies. Instead
of raising the bulk of the national
revenue by tariff taxation, which
falls with unjust and unequal
weight upon the labor and indus
tries of the country, it would trans
fer the bulk of the burden by an in
come tax to the wealth of the nation,
where it justly belongs. Instead of
having a single gold basis for the
national currency, it would restore
the bimetallic basis of our fathers,
by the equal coinage of silver with
gold, and by its reinvestiture with
full legal tender qualities. Instead
of having the paper- money required
by the demand of trade and com
merce issued by national banks as
demanded by the republican party,
or by state banks as demanded by
the Cleveland party, neither of which
would be legal tender money, it de
mands that all the money of the
country, gold, silver and paper, shall
be issued alone fcy the government
of the country, and that the paper
money, as well as both gold and
silver, shall be full legal tender
money. These, then, are the lead
ing issues before the people."
"There is no intelli
gent man that will deny the need
of paper money. . There is not
enough metal money, even provi
ding that silver was fully used and
honored to supply the demands of
trade and commerce. All three of
the political parties concede that
fact. -They only differ as to the
manner in which such money shtuld
be issued. The republicans favor
its issuance by the national banks,
while the populists demand that it
shall be issued by the government
direct. There is one other great and
vital difference. The first two par
ties would not have the paper mon
ey a legal tender, while the popu
lists demand that all money, gold,
silver, and paper, shall be full legal
tender money. It will thus be seen
that upon the real issue before the
people regarding the paper-money
question, the republicans and Cleve
landitei stand together upon one side
favoring bank rag money, not a legal
tender, while the populists are upon
the other side, demanding sound
government money a full legal ten
der. That is the plain issue."
"At my mill in Port
land,' as well as at my oflice in fca
lem, I am repeatedly and constantly
importuned by men able and anx
ious to work, some of them with
families to support, who are out of
employment and out of money, and
who, owing to the general stagnation
of business consequent upon the
diminution of the'volume of the cur
rency, are unable to find work. Ev
ery business man in Oregon can tell
the seme story. V hat are these
men to do? How are .they to pro
vide the neccessary food and cloth
ing for their wivea ond children?
Is it any wonder that our asylums
and prisons are becoming greatly
overcrowded, and that the lists of
crimes and suicides are swelling to
alarming proportions? Last April
the night overland express ran over
and killed a man just south of Al
bany in this state. An examination
of the body showed that he was a
fine-appearing and fairly well-dress-r
ed man. He had a half-eaten loaf'
of bread, an empty purse, and a
letter from his wife in Tennessee
begging for money with which to
feed herself and childien. The
whole story can be briefly told. A
stranger in a strange land, seeking
employment and finding none, with
out money and without hope, with
the cry of his loved ones for help
ringing in his ears, in despair he
sought death as an end to his troub
les. Who can measure the sufl'er
ing and losses inflicted by this great
crime of diminishing the volume, of
money, caused by the demonetiza
tion of. silver. Believing as I do,
that there is. a life beyond this iu
which.au account must be given of
SOUTHERN
Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report.
our deeds here, I would not for a
thousand worlds become responsi
ble for that crime by riving my
vote to those who uphold it. The
prophetic promise that "ho that de
spiseth the gaili of oppressions, his
place of defense shall be the muni
tion of rocks" will not be vouchsafed
to those who abet the gajn of op
pressions by supporting those can
didates, who, at the instance of nion
ometallists and for their gain,
would stagnate the business and
check the prosperity of the whole
civilized world by refusing to use
silver as monev." .
Tin: People's Party want3 to in
crease the money and reduce the
interest. They propose to issue le
gal tender notes on agricultural
land in limited quantities on fifty
per cent of its value. There is noth
ing more safe than this. New York
State has done this safely for seven
ty-five years with its school fund. 1
New Jersey and Oregon do tne
same. Why not issue this money
directly to the producer at one or
two per cent iiittead of issueing it
as we do to the bankers? Why
should not every State, city, county
and irrigation district take its boil
(which all bankers are glad to get)
directly to the treasury and borrow
all money needed for public iui-

The quarterly meeting of the
Jackson County Farmers' Alliance
will be held on Friday, Oetober 14,

full delegation from all Sub-Alliances
is expected. W.M. II. Rreesk,

A Word From Tho Secretary.
l-Milor Southern Orctfou Muil:
I wish to c.ill the attention of the
Sub-Alliances to the fact that I
have
e observed during mv time as
Secretary, that the most prompt and
energetic Alliance has always had a
good prt:on of female members.
This leads me to the conclusion
that if we wish to hive wideawke
and growing Alliances we must
have our wife, mother, sister and
daughters as members at our meet
ings. Women are recognized in all
social and political movements as
prominent factors. Tiie social fea
tures of our Alliance is tiie cement
ing and binding force. I-t me ad
vise you Alliance I5ro: lAin't go to
your Alliances by yourself and leave
the female members of your family
at home. Take them along,-make
up your mind that they shall have
a 'hhI tiiue and it will radiate on
yourself so you will be happy and

li es of rt-f.irm. ami such a feature i
will add an eli ment of reform to our
order, tvithout which it would be a
failure.
Briefly then, women are a necess
ity to a succesful Alliance, therefore
spend some extra time inducing i
all vour female acquaintances to '
join our Order, and then the strong
minded the lords of creation will
dance on the toards and do the
will of a few schemers. This to a
certain extent is true, but in our Al
liance we are making sovereign
American citizens and not puppets,
therefore let lis live up to tiie rules
of our noble Order. The great dra-
ilia .which is now played on the 'teacher Number cnrvlUd, 4"; aversge

Editor Southern Oregon Mull:
Will some Plutocrat gentleman
please answer through the Mail, the
following:
If the government only can make
money and a penitentiary offence
fur any one else to do so, why
should it borrow money from indi
viduals or corporations?
If the government can loan $3-10,-000,000
on one per cent tax, why
docs it pav four and one-half pur
cent interest on ?S!)l,160,lG-i? .
