i The Oregon Democrats pledge
themselves anew, to the principles
upon which the party is founded.
Then tne skip all the intervening
platforms and reaffirm the doctrines
enunciated In the platforms of 1884
and 1888. This Is a convenient way
of passing over some of the most
disagreeable portions of the records
of the party as made In Us own
platforms; as where it declared In
1864 that the war for the preserva
tion of the Union was a failure, etc.
But this is all ancient history and
most people will bo interested to
know what the Oregon Democraoy
does with living Issues.
Of course, they condemn the
McKiuley bill as tho "blighting
Iniquity of the age" and deuy the
fright of the government to levy a
protective tariff excopt as incidental
to the raising of revenue," and de
mand a revision of the tarift laws.

liere. They favor protection only
Incidentally." If it is wrong, and
the government has no right "to
piotect" why profess to allow any
protection at all even "Incidentally."
ft seems to us that is n weak posi
tion. It is better to Bquarly favor
protection on its merits and for its
iu n sake than to condemn it and
I bin favor allowing it "Incident
ally." The other point is rather a
hard criticism on its own members
in the house. The platform calls for
n turiflt revision, but the Democratic
house thinks different. The Demo
crats In.tbe houso with one hundred
and fifty majority, who could in one
week repeal and destroy the McKln
ley bill If the believed it the "blight
ing Iniquity of tho age," do not
beem to agree with the Democrats
in Oregon, who are in a minority.
The house Democrats don't want to
levise the McKInley bill as badly as
I the Oregon Democrats. They, don't
want it revised at all. They arc

According to the Australian ballot
law candidates for stato offices must
file nn acceptnuce with tho secretary
of stato forty-five days before tho
dato of theelectlon. The candidates
for Republican and Democratlo state
offices have filed their acceptance,
but the other parties have, fulled to
do so. Individual electora have filed
nominations for John C. Luce, Peo
ple's party candidate for congress
from the second district, and of
Rlgdon, Hrlght and Welch for con
gress and supremo judge, but there
is no nomination for attorney gen

"The old timers have served their

D'Arcy in 1890. Salem's mayor has
by this time heard from tho old
timers at tho state convention.
With its usual perversity growing
out of its terribly mistaken political
principles, tho Albany Democrat
labels its most fitting department
"misfits."

How does tho Democratlo plat

when the holder Is jjlvon the option

tbluK to consider. Weglvoit In full
owing to tho Importance of thin
matter. In all partR of tbo world
capital rules. Tbo Rothschilds and
Wall streets dictate terms. It Is
only in free America that tbo people
utitltrtake to havo anything to say
us to the financial policy of the gov
ernment. It Is only In our country
that tho people dare say what they
think on money matters and on cer
tain occusions arise and bid defiance
to tho money-bags and plutocrats,
Bo the financial question arises to
sunt erne Importance and even the
opinion of the Democrats of Oregon
Is of some consequence. Wo quoto
the fourth plank of their platferm:
Fourth We believe in honest
money, the gold and silver coinage
of the constitutlon,and in a currency
convertible into such coinage with
out loss, and of sufficient volume to
meet nil the demands of tbo people;
wo demand that all money coined
or issued by the United States should
be of equal monetary value, and of
equal purchasing power for tbo rich
uud the poor, aud that all paper cur
rency issued by the government
should be redeemable in either gold
or silver coin nt the option of tho
holder, and not at the discretion of
the secretary of tho treasury.
It Is needless to say tliat to believe
In honest money and the coinage of
tho constitution is about as vague as
diluted moonshine. But it is what
Democratic orators feed their au
diences and what tho audiences as a
rulo swallow. It is meaningless
Duncombe. Dut thero is a part of
the platform that has a meaning.
After saying they believe iu un Inter
changeable bimetallic coinage, they
(poll it all and reveal the cloven foot
of Wall street trlokery by their con
clusion; that all government notes
"shall be redeemable iu either gold
"or silver at tiie option of tho holder,
"and not at tho discretion of tho
"secretary of the treasury."
This is a beautiful arrange
ment. Honest money 1 Gold
aud Sliver Coinage of tho Constitu
tion 1 1 Currency , Convertible into
Such Coinage Without Loss III All
Money of Equal Monetary Value MM
Of Equal Purchasing Power for
tbo Rich and the Poor Mil I
Ye gods of politics, what beautiful
phrases to catch suckers and Iu the
end Wall street to be allowed to loot
the treasury by having the option
to demand ttie lost dollar of gold
the government has and refuse sil
ver, the money of the people under
tho constitution Just ua much as
gold. Read tho, lino expressions of
regard for the dear people in the fjret
part of that financial plank and
then realize the iron talons of (ha
plutocrats In the last clause by
meuus of which Wall street could
create a panic at any moment.

BnooKFifaLO, Mo., April 22.
Word reached hero yesterday morn
ing that Frank James, assistant
station agent at Meadville, this
county, committed suicide last even
ing. The young man had been
keeping company with Miss Abble
Creamer for some time. Last week
they had a misunderstanding, and
tho young lady refused to have any
thing moro to do with him. Yester
day Frank sent her a note, asking
her If he might call last night, but
tho young woman and her mother
wore going out to call on friends
and told him so In answer. About
7 o'clock Mrs. Creamer and her
daughter left tho houso and spent
tho ovouing with neighbors. When
thoy returned, about 0 o'clock, they
found tho key, which they had
hung up near tho door, gone, aud
saw a bright light iu the parlor.
Looking through tho door, tbey saw
tho form of a man lying an the floor.
They finally gained entrance
through tho back door, and found
tho lifeless form of Miss Creamer's
former lover. A revolver, with one
empty chamber, and a small vial
partially filled with morphine, wero
at his side. Ho left no note or word
as to his suicide. Before going to
tho house Jamus went around town
and paid a fow debts. He gave his
gold watch to bis mother, saying
that ho was going to get a larger one

THE OAPTUAED OATTLBMEN.
Rustlers Are Determined to Get
Them if Possible.
Saoe CnEEic, Wyo., April 22.
Colonol Van Horn, and his com
mand left Fort MoKlnney early
yesterday morning in charge of
forty-two captured cattlemen.
Where they are at present no one
knows. A snow storm has been
raging with unabated severity and
tho trail botwean tho fort and Doug
las Is in frightful condition. It was
tho intention of tho troops to make
Powder river tho objective point of
tbo first day's march, but it was
absolutely impossible to get further
than Crazy Woman, twenty miles
from tho starting point. Thero they
camped Monday night, and if tho
storm here was any criterion of that
up there, thoy did not move a hoof
yesterday. Tho weather this morn
ing Is clearing and it is probable that
tho maroh will bo resumed. If so,
tho critical polnt'of tho march will
bo reached at Powder river. The
military guard is not movo than 150
mounted men, and 600 thoroughly
armed and inuoh hotter
equipped Bottlers la that neighbor
hood, determined to got possession
of tho forty-two cattlemen. No
bettor spot for an ambuscade could
be selected than in tho immediate
vlclty of Powder river. Canyons
aud ravines abound, and fifty expert
riflemen could easily pick oft the
escort and prisoners from the shel
tering rooks, Tho cattlemen are
being transported in heavy wagons
drawn by four-horse teams furnished
by tho stage company. If no dlrrl
culty bo experienced from an attack
by settlors, tho march will be a
hard ono, for thoro is no point on
roud between Crazy Woman and
Brown spriugs, a distanco ot ninety
miles, where hay or grain could be
obtalued for tho horse. As a sam
ple of tho traveling along the road
betweou Douglas uud Fort MoKIb
noy, It took from 0 o'clock till 8
o'clock yesterday morning to make
tho trip from Douglas to Sago Creek,
a dlstauco of twonty-flvo miles, the
rido being mado in nn open buggy,
in tho face of a drlvlutj snow
storm, and that section of the road
Is tho best of tho 160 miles between
tho fort and Douglas. Forced
marches may laud them at the
county seat of Converse county by
today.
