United $tates Senator_J. W..Bailey
of Texas and Carter Harrison, may
or of Chicago, have been suggested
as possible democrat ic candidates for
I’re.-iident and vice president in IBOJ.
Evidently the democrats are tired
chasing after theorist.-,, and are now
on Hie hunt for men. Bailey and
Harrison as democratic standard
bearers in the next • ampaign would
suggest to the republicans the neces
sity of nominating some of their best
men against them.

President McKinley will tarry in

Mr. McKinley will travel through
the state of Oregon, making a brief
stop where practicable. But out of
respect to the memory of the late
W. J. Bryan, who made the same
itinerary late in the nineteenth cen
tury, President McKinley will make
no rear-platform speeches on his trip

sense under a republican administration.
Hear him :
In every avenue of life except among
the wheat farmers of the Willamette val
ley, and those affected by their condi
tion, our people are enjoying an uuprece
dented era of thrift and prosperity
Go
to the great commercial centers, investi
gate the prodigious manufacturing en
terprises, compare the present conditions
in the mining districts with the past,
look upon the cotton fields of the south,
and, finally, examine thé bank accounts
of the farmers of the middle west and
everywhere you will find abundant evi
dence of contentment and plenty. Think
of what ten cents a pound for cotton
means to the southern planter! Four
and a half cents for pork to the Missouri
and Iowa farmer! Five dollars a head
lor sheep, five cents a pound on foot for
beef, twenty live and thirty cents a pound
for good creamery butter! Do not these
conditions warrant the farmer's being
the most independent man on earth? Do
not these ligures justify his going forth
with head erect, with contentment writ
ten on his brow, with gratitude in his
heart, while he lifts up his voice in grat
itude to his Creator, that liis lol was cast
m such pleasant places?
1 remarked a while ago that these con
ditions obtain throughout our country .ex
cept in our own midst. Here, for several
years past, the wheat raiser has not
iomid bis farm profitable; perhaps it
would be safe for me to say that while
our neighbors have been enjoying such
splendid advantages and unparalleled
prosperity, we, in order to make ends
meet, have been compelled to economize
more in the last three years than ever
before. To enquire into the causes that
have produced this condition, and sug
gest a remedy therefor, is the object of
this meeting—is the paramount question
before this institute, as 1 understand it.
In the opinion of vour humble servant,
it is high time that something was doue
ill this direction. The time is fully ripe,
ill tile language of Jerry Simpson, to
find out "where we are at," and do some
thing to correct the mistakes that have
brought upon us such straitened financial
circumstances. There certainly can be
no good reason why we, who dwell in
the fairest land beneath the shining
sun—a land where nature has poured
out her wealth in such profusion—where
everything seems to conduce to man's
happiness and comfort—I say there is no
good reason why we should go about
with sad countenances and downcast
eyes, toiling, planning and worrying
from early morning till late at night,
trying to devise some plan to keep the
wolt from the door. I say, here, without
fear ot successful contradiction, that, bv
n proper application of modern methods
and business principles, the farmers of
this Willamette Talley will not only
have an abundance ot the necessities ot
life, but may have every luxury that
money can purchase.
