HAWLEY A TRIMMER.
O ROUGE PUTKAM, Editor and Mnnnirer
THAT gifted statesman, Congressman Hawley, lias
spoken again, and advises republicans to throw; over
the assembly. AVo use the word gifted seriously because
ve believe that he possesses the most remarkable hind
sight of any man in public life in the state.
A few weeks ago Mr. Uawley announced that he did
not believe Cannon should bo speaker again. At that time
the Mail Tribune criticised that utterance because it was
so palpably prompted by desire for votes, llis last speech
at Salem confirms the impression that he is a cheap po
litical trimmer, who wants to hold office for the salary
attached to it, and for that, purpose is wilting to embrace I
any belief that may get him a few otes, or abandon his i
former political associates for tho same reason. I
Anyone who has watched Mr. Hawley's record enuuot i
conceive of his being guidqd by any other -orinciple. (

ed for years, but from his lips there has never been heard
a word of protest against the corrupt corporate influences
in American politics.
During his four years in the house Congressman Haw
ley has had a thousand opportunities to utter a word of
protest against Canuonism and the S3stem, but who has
ever heard even a whisper by him along that line?
"When the insurgents were battling for the people, what
"-as Hawley's position? With Cannon and the system
eveiy time. He not only voted with the system, but would
chancre his vote at Cannon's command, as he did on the
! motion to expel the lobbyists for the ship subsidy from
the floor or the house.
Hawley's excuse has been that he had to sell his sup
port to get appropriations for Oregon. If that is the price
of the meager appropriations Oregon gets out of the mil
lions wrung from her people by an extortionate tariff, a
self-respecting man should refuse to pay, and the people
would honor him for his refusal. If that is the price the
system is rotten and-decency demands its destruction.
But Mr. Hawley had opportunity to show his cour
age to the people when appropriations were not the issue.
"When the line of battle was formed to destroy the primary
law in Oregon and substitute the assembly, we find him
dumb. When the Grange asked his opinion on State
ment No. 1, he refused to express his opinion. But when
Cannon is politically dead, he discovers that he is against
him. When the assembly forces are routed, he is willing
to abandon it. What confidence can people place in such
pretensions, especially from one who started out to make
politics a life work?
Hawley's unfitness is demonstrated by ,his own acts
and words. He possesses neither definite ideas nor moral
courage. His pursuit of office is like vultures searching
for carrion he cares not for smell or rottenness, if per
mitted to gorge.

Hawley's Nomination
From the Gold Hill News.
Hawley Is nominated. "Pork" has
triumphed over principle, apparent
ly. Hawley delivered tho goodB in
the shape of pork-barrel appropria
tions for Oregon, as ho promised. In
cidentally he delivered tho goods to
Cannon and the system.
His campaign catch-phrase, "No
Interests to sorvo but tho public in
terests," was so manifestly a lio, In
view of his yoeman service In con
gress to every "Interest" hut the pub
lic interest, that it is a wonder that
it wont with tho people of his party.
Yes, Hawley has tho nomination,
but no longer 1b a republican nom
ination equivalent to election, as New
York, North Dakota, Maino and Mas
sachusetts testify. Tho American peo
ple are more than wavering In their
ancient allegiance to the clay-footed
party fetich, and party solidarity is
a bygono.
