FltEB S1LVKH COIHAOK.
Sioux City, la., Jeurnal: Tho
question raided by tho silver coin
age controversy is oue that is far
broader thau any mere fiscal policy.
There Is much to be said on the
subect when it Is narrowed to a
lucre matter of ecouomio theory.
But this question as to tree sliver
coinage cannot be solely so con.
sldcred and decided.
The forces arrayed on the side of
tho free use of the white metal as
eolu alongside of gold are marshalled
uuder a mote potent impulse, ami to
serve a more profound interest thau
appears on the surface of the debate.
Those forces are nothing less than
tho west and south asserting them
selves to break down tho monopoly
of the eastern states in shaping the
policies of the general government.
The demand for free silver coinage
in a broad view and under the
circumstances in which it has
arisen, Is. therefore, the occasion
upon which tho west, aided by the
south, has reiolved to have at lcait
an equal share In shaping the
financial policy of the government.
The people of the west have for
years been growing more restive
uuder the undue influence of tho
northern seaboard states and the
adjacent inland states has possessed
over tho machinery of the common
government in all Its departments.
It is needless to rehearse the causes
which have given tho old eastern
states such influence. Every in
telligent person understands them.
Th fact of uudue intluence is
palpable and indisputable.
In tad ft legislation, in financial
alVuirs, in appropriations, it has been
the special and local Interests of
those eastern states which colored
and shaped and dominated the pol
icies of the government. Political
platforms, party candidates and of
ficial adjustments proceeded in Utl
due deference to the ideua, purposes
and Interests of the east. This ab
normal condition affected not one.
but in higher or less degree Doth the
great political parties. There is pos
itively uo chance of dispute as to
these points. Tho west has from
time to time protested. From time
to time it has endeavored to have
I its tuturests considered, but all such
eflbrts have fallal. Tho east has
1 been entrenched in the judiclil, ex
ecutive, and legislative dpArtmontB
of the ko eminent. It has had un
due representation everywhere, In
cluding the committees of the two
branche of congress us well as in
the arimliiimatlvo department.
And It has been situated so that it
eoui(i exert iUelf to Influence all
these branohea of tho government
disproportionately to the west and
to all other sections of the country.
This uudue Influence of tho east
ban been notoriously Illustrated in
lie financial policy of the govern
ment. lJuring the last quarter of a
uttiry the financial policy of the
country Iiuh not been a fair reflection
of the cot unoii lutertsts, desires and
ideas of the people of tho Uulttxl
Ktiifi h (t hu hei'll nlinped, If not
exclusively, lertululy to a dispropor
tionate degree, by Wall street, tak
ii;r Wall street as a r presentatlve
of the creditor classes of the eastern
states. Financial legislation lias
been a long series of measure, the
advantage and leaning of which,
in nearly all caf-es, have been on the
side of the eastern states whereover
their Interests conflicted, or were
supposed to conflict, with those of
the west. And so strong was the
grip of the east upon national poll
tics, m thorough Its organization
and so coiifolldated Its power, that
western efforts were steadily dlsored-
im, mi uk- whole twai code of tb
nnm io uay lb noi a iruiy national
but distinctively au eastern code.
The basis of that code rents in the
financial meafcures during the war.
It was laid by the eastern lenders,
by the bondholders, by the bankers,
by the speculators, by oil those clash
es whouct Iu view of vested rights.
Uw)n that basis has been elaborated
a (oiiHlsteut system io the interest of
the east Including the demonetiza
tion of silver iu 1889 and a long
series of rueakures proceeding from
roiiildiratlon of the lelflsh concerns
of the creditor rait rather than of the
debtor wet. The went, it Is true,
has had belflsh concerns as a debtor; I
but the point that It lias Uen tin-
able to get thtte concerns considered
as the eaitt has done Iu the formu. terprise or lugenulty tosteal u pig,
latloii of the policies of the govern-' or even have tho force of character
inent. H.i complete was the we ascribe to the animal Itself-lie

proceeds of Its undue Influence 1b glvr or preacher,
the government it has not acrapled, 'fU writer bw repeatedly placed
to denounce aadifthontty fry effort hi hand on tho holy book tlmtorna
of the west t,o reduce those proceeds, mints his desk and ultixwt swore
Iiut the went baa bcu growing In
power. Jucreak of population and
the aduiia&len of new spates bar at
last shifted tb balance of political
power from tho east aud diminished
its real importance. Tho west is
now simply awaking to conscious
ness of its strength and it is still
growing. Under tusse conditions
it was, of course, merely n question
of time when the critical contest
wauld como, involving tho destruc
tion of the unduo influence of tho
east iu the common government.
That contest, it would seem, baa
come or has begun fairly ou tho
question of freo silver coinage. It
was natural that it should come on a
question of finance, not only bo
cause the abuses of tho eastern
monopoly in tho government havo
been grossest in financial policies,
but also because tho west could not
readily unite on such a qtieation.
The west therefore must lltt.ht it
out on this lino for frca coinage. It
must break tho grip of the cast. In
breaking the grip of tho east on this
financial question the west will do
vastly mow, for it will havo demon
strated strensth to assert itself po
tently and equally with the east as
to all other public questions. Tho
east must be knocked out of tho
box; that Is tho point. If freo silver
coinage shall actually operate Injur
ously to the general Interests of the
country, tke west will be ready to
apply suitable remedies. Hut tho
east can be permitted no longer to
dictate, no lonrer to manipulate, no
longer to dominate. If there is iu
the future to be a compromise on
this matter of the coinage of sliver,
let It be a compromise between tho
east and the west, In which tho in
terest of both uct Ions arc faltly con
sidered, not an abltrary arrange
ment selfishly dictated by the east.
In the present state of things the
west must stand for free silver coin
age or a free light with the east.
THK STATE fUKS VHHOCIATION
of Oregon meets at 1'oitland Aug.
IS. As has been the custom In near
ly all tho states, there Is talk of en
tertalulng the editors aud giving
them banquets, freo excursions and
otherwise showing that exuberant
hospitality often extended to con
ventions of other workers in public
ways.
The local press has fallen into con
troversy as to the extent of theso
courtesies. This does not Interest tho
press outside of Portland so much as
that the gathering shall bo a val
uable oue, from the standpoint of
advancing higher standards of edi
torial work, newspaper methods and
business success.
We assume that whether the edi
tor of the Orcgontau desires it or not,
the luuoclatlon meets on the day set.
Whether Mr. Scott fuvora or opposes
entertainment of the editors will not
deter any from going. Tho extent
to which editors disapprove of the
editorial management of tho Oregon
Ian, or its treatment of tho rural
press cannot uffect what Is purely a
questien of general courtesy or pub
lic hoipitallty. We despite the
methods of that paper us much as
any man can. We believe that It Ih,
along with other great metropolitan
papers, a powerful tool of tho
monopolies that are robbing the pro
ducer, enslaving the masses, and
serving the plutocratic Interests that
threaten to destroy free government
by the people.
But that shall not mar the pleas
ure we hope to derive from attend
ing tho Portland editorial annota
tion. In common with many others,
while not averse to receiving the
courtesies or hospitalities often
tendered the press, we should hesi
tate to receive a present of a hotel
bill or anything elie fioni Mr. Bcott,
or anyone for that matter. The
general principle of u-lf-dopcudcuco
that should animate true Ameri
cans applies here as elsewhere, take
nothing without rendering value
received. We trust the editorial
controversy may Im adjusted aud
preparations made for a business
srsslon rather than a Junket.

A MODKIIS KINK A I IT,
There are the puller aud tho puff
ed, and those who read the vllo off
spring of their art. If the peop'e
only knew It, puffing is Just us dis
gusting to the newspaper man as It
can ixMslbly be Io any reader. Hut
It Is a science that has been devel
oped by the requirements of mad
em Journalism. It Is a fine art that
has been cultivated to meet the de
mand of modern society. Ah
blanket-sheet Jo'irnalUm. cannot sub
sist without Hterary padding, so art
I Hex! bociety cannot exist by allow
ing honest merit aud modest worth
to win Its way without free adver
tising. How would the world ever hear
of Tom, Tom, the Piper's Mm, but
forth newspaper puff? Ho may
riot even have been an honest Pier's
son, or have ever devtloiwd the en
thai he would not again In Ills sane
moments eoiupouud a villainous
lying newspaper puff Iiut be. has
rtnondrrd aud desisted, Upon re-
flection what rt wholo great big lot
of lunoceut fuu the world would
lose should puffing cease. And ho
has seized his pencil and rolled out
personal pufTs for politicians, pro
fessional men, scalawags, tlu-horn
moralists, and what-not until llko
Aesop's frog, cuvlous of tho hugo
dimensions of tho ox. thov havo
blown themselves up and verily
burst their various booms aud
schemes of vanity.
No oue has reduced puffing to Buch
a lino art as a certain class of per
sons who llko the Illy toil not, neith
er do they pay n cent, nnd yet Van
dcrbilt with all his millions is not
tricked out iu uowspapcrs llko one
of theso. They are persons who dis
dain nil such commonplaco great
ness as can bo won by applying
muscle or brains, but they are great
only in their capacity for working
the press for pulls. Tho unfolding
of every minute petal of their lnfln-
ltcsmal development Ih chronicled
with all tho Importance that would
bo attached to tho blossoming of n
century plant.
Tho science of tho puff has a pe
cuniary value to tho pulled, but
neither to tho puller nor tho public.
Hut this has no Interest for readers.
Tho Individual who Is never puffed
in quito as apt to bo entirely trust
worthy and respectablo, as any who
hn vol educed the science of fico ad
vcrtlslng to an overblown absurdity.
TUOimi.r. IN ASTATK INSTITUTION.
A page of the Corvallls Times Is
taken to publish two flnauclal
exhibits aud a communication, ro
tating to thu.,Oregou Agricultural
College and Erpurlmoutal Station,
by Prof. E. Grim, doposed from the
management of tho department of
agriculture. The charges aud facts
are summarUod In Mr. Grlm's
words us follews:
"Tho said flnauclal exhibits are
either completo or Incomplete. If
they bo complete, they should show
tho full disbursements of tho institu
tion and the correct distribution of
tliu various Items. It they bo Incom
plete they are valueless upon which
to predicate results and afford a
hldlng-placo for deceit, fraud aud
Imposition; aud above all, tho mat
ter contained should bo truo.
To recapitulate: 1. I havo shown
that Mr. NosIi'b ci llcgo exhlbltln in
complete, and that there nro items
In both exhibits wrongly distribu
ted. 2. That he has violated the
lawB of congress governing the
station. 3. That ho is guilty of
sinister motives nnd cureless of tho
success of tho Experiment Btatlou.
4. That I havo u balance of fuuds
on hands for my department, nnd I
statu here that I claim my figures
are approxlmatsly true. fi. That
Mr. Nash has approved all my billH
without objection aud is thereby es
topped from charging mo with any
remissness In expenditures. 0, That
I have been In harmony with tho
faculty and experiment force of the
institution nt all times. I cenclude:
Feeling that a majority of tho board
havo been Imposed Uon au well as
myself, and knowing that tho spirit
which animated tho opposition to
me, and tho influence and methods
which prevented my re-election, If
unchecked aud unwhlpped, will
slowly but surely strand tho fanners'
college upon the rooks of disaster.

These figures aro not up to what
