SILVER SUBSTITUTE,
d i J r il ii t a
KepOrtOQ tor the HOtlSe I aritt
BUT REFUSES TO CONCUR
To the Senate Sobstitute for Its
Bend Bill.
Washington, Feb. A. The finance
committee of the senate has agreed to
report for the houso tarltf bill a sub-
stltuto providing fur tho free coinage
of silver. The substitute was sug
gested by Setmtor Vest, and agreed to
by a mnjorlty of one, Senator .Tones,
of Nevada, voting with the Democrats
for tho substitute, and all tho Repub
lican? present voting against It. Tho
substitute agreed to is in oxact word?
the silver substitute for the bond bill
which passed thusenalcSaturday. It
provides for tho free coinage of silver
at a ratio of 10 to 1.
WHAT THE SUnSTITUTK 18.
Tho bill directs tho Immediate coin
age into standard dollars of tho silver
seigniorage in tho treasury, accumu
lated by purchases under the Sherman
act; prohibits tho Issuance of national
batik notes of smaller denomination
tnun 910; directs tho secretary of tho
treasury to redeem greenbacks and
treasury notes In cither gold or silver
exclusively at tho option of the secre
tary, and to rc-lssuo tho greenbacks.
When tho substitute for tho tariff
bill was read In tho senate Quay
moved to recommond tho bill and
substitute back to the. finance com-
mlttco with Instructions to report tho
original bill and tho amendment
separately. Tho finance committee's
report proved a complete surprlso to
tho silver Republicans, and was un
favorably received by them. Thoy
immediately began a movement to
havo two propositions, the tariff and
and silver, separated, and will gener
ally support Quay's motion to this
effect. Mitchell, of Oregon, said:
"It is a Democratic move to defeat
thctttrlff. I won't vote for it."
IN THE HOUSE.
As was expected, action on tho sen
ate substitute for tho house bond bill
was taken by the committee on ways
and means today. Crisp moved that
tho committee recommend to the
house to concur in the sonata amend
ment. On tho vote all Republicans
voted no, and so did two Democrats
Turner and Tarsney.
TnE FARMERS ALLIANCE
The National Farmers Alliance and
Industrial union meet hero today.
While tho leaders of tho Alliance havo
long hold that tho organization is non
political, It is understood that great
pressure Is being brought to bear to
havo resolutions adopted which will
bring the Alliance as a body into the
financial tight on tho silver side. It
claimed that the Alliance is stronger
than ever before in its history.
PRINT THE RECORD.
The Salem Journal challenges the
Orcgonian to print the records of tho
last legislature, that tho public may
decide who broke the pledges. Ex
change. We predict they will never print it,
They will print nil fiorts of garbled
reports, but never the record itself.
The record is. fatal to some of the
Oregoulan's strikers, and tho old
Portland ring don't want it done.
We can't afford to lose a good man
because of some of bis minor idiosyn
crasies. We ought not to ostracise a
good neighbor and citizen because he
may believe In sprjnullng for admis
sion to church privileges Instead of
immersion. Tho silver question is
practically Involved in, and will be
settled ty a return to the true "Amer
ican policy," protection, and Mitchell
Is aa able protectionist. Ho will do.

A flno audience greeted Howard
J Curlcton Trippof Iowa, at his first
week day meeting nt the First M. E.
Church, considering tho stormy oven-
lng. Itwnsn splendid nnd Intelli
gent audience, and, before the speaker
had talked ten minutes those present
were thoroughly responsive to his
platform appeals. "
Beforo half an hour was over all
were satisfied that '.the Iowa temper
ance cyclone had struck them.
If hewcro In iffo only to make
money he would quit at once and go
back to Ills homo lnjlowa, wrlto books
or publish his newspaper. Hut money
was secondary to derating humanity
to a higher plane of living.
A man at the town' of Buttovllle.
who wasa total abstainer and a church
member, still Insisted on growing
P5 wn was noxmore respectnuio
than kcenlnir a saloon, from the
standpoint of Immunity and God's
higher moral law, ;
He soon became Intensely dramatic
as ho proceeded nnddicld tho breath
less attention of tho' mixed audlenco
of men, women nri'd children. Ho
said an ingnornmus or a parsimonious
man seldom or never fell a victim to
drink. Ho showed tho composition of
liquors, as analyzed by Dr. Cox, tho
Now York government, chemist, that
would nauseate any intelligent man's
stomach.
Ills depletion of the analysis of a
drunkard's brain was as lurid as the
flames, hosald, that mounted from the
fluids that flowed out of that brain
when a match was touched to them.
Ills recitations from his own poems
aro Interspersed with eloquent appeals
to tho young to abstain from drink.
Ills glances backward and forward
over tho horoscopo of lives ho know,
and who havo fallen into liquor, were
dramatic and entertaining.
Thoro wero a largo number of peo
ple who would never go into a temper
ance organization. It was not popu
lar enough. There wero people who
were so loaded down with social and
religious duties that they could do
nothing for humanity.
There had been two .templar's
lodges in Salem but now only ono was
working. This order had 8,000,000
members enrolled In all since 1851, and
400,000 drunkards redeemed. It had
today 800,000 members in good stand
ing. It was practical. It was n step
ping stono to tho church. Tho time
would como when tho man who would
sell liquor would be ns little thought
of as a man who would soil slaves.
At a certain point in tho address,
temperance workers went through tho
audlenco and enrolled nil who had over
been in tho order or would join, and
each ono of Mr. Tripp's mcotlngn be
comes tho nucleus of a now lodge.
His work is done in so thorough and
conscientious n manner that It gener
ally endures and is not transient in
its character. Tho power, strength
and eloquence of his addresses was
fortified by facts, such as that GO per
cent of all Oregon convicts attributed
their downfall to strong drink. About
80 per cent of nil criminals wero men
addicted to tho usoof liquors.
Tho speaker closed in an eloquent
peroration in behalf of temperance
and the clasping of hands of all friends
of temperance. Ills hearers wero In
fluenced, ns an audlenco seldom has
been in this city, to expressions of
sympathy and enthusiasm.
Did our government rest upon its
state houses, courts, prisons and
asylums? No. It rests on its chris
tian citizenship. Keep tho homo
pure, clean and wholesome and the
nation would grow in uprightness,
moral power and truo christian civil
ization. Mr. Tripp speaks again to
night. Republican Cluba.
Portland, Feb. 4. Tho stato con
vention of Republican clubs met this
forenoon, after tho appointment of
tho usual committees a recess till 1 p.
m. was taken.
ONLY ELECTS OFFICERS.
When the convention reconvened
this afternoon the committee on cre
dentials reported that tho principal
interest of the convention centers in
tho election of ofllccrs, it being gen
erally understood that no question of
party policy will be brought before
tho convention. Candidates for pres
ident ore J. O. Lcttsure, and O. II.
Carey both of Portland. President
Beekmandocs not desire a re-election.
A no v constitution will also bo
brought before tho convention for
adoption.
Too silver question was quickly dis
posed of this uf teruoon by the unaul
mous adoption of a resolution, re
ported by the committee on order of
business, declaring that no expression
of party policy shall be mado by the
Republican leaguo club.

A SUCCESSFUL INVASION
The

Havana, Feb. -J. Insurgents under
tho leadership of Nunez attacked a
detachment of Spanish troops while
tho lattor wero repairing tho railroad

YESTERDAY'S ENOAOEMKNT.
General Murln has had nu engage
ment with a body of insurgents that
ho reports to bo tho main force tinder
Gomez, and that wns put to flight
with a loss of 20 killed. Tho entire
absence of details as to tho number of
insurgents 1n the body attacked leaves
some ground for doubt as to whether
It was, In truth, Gomez's Immediate
following.
Pretty1 much tho whole of tho com
bined columns under General Marin
Including 1700 cavalry, seem to havo
been engaged. This force was equip
ped with n special ylew to running
down and cornering tho Insurgents,
once It should como faco to face with
them, and great expectations were
founded on Its supposed ability to do
this. But tho report of today's en
gagement, although It indicates that
tho attack was mado with great dash
and vigor, seems to Indicate that tho
insurgents were as successful In
evading tho Spanish forces as thoy
havo been at any time heretofore.

The Hymns of The Notions.
It Is not generally known that soven
years ago John rhlllp Sousn, then
leader of tho Marino Band tit Wash
ington, commenced, In co-operation
with the United States Government,
a collection of the national songs of
tho world. A writer in St. Louis
Post Dispatch says that tho Stato De
partment sent out requests to nil tho
nation? for their national and typical
songs. When these arrived Sousa di
vided them Into thrco classes. Tho
first contained thoso which olllclul or
popular voice had mado the principal
patriotic nlrs of their respective coun
tries; the second, thoso occasionally
used In till? way ; and tho third, those
typical songs Indigenous to tho people
The whole collection contains nearly
thrco hundred specimens, nud thrco
years wero spent In arranging them.
Tho national songs of United States,
England, Franco and Germany arc, of
courso, well known. Austria's na
tional hymn was composed by Ilaydcn,
says tho writer, after tho pattern of
'G0d Save tho King"; nnd tho na
tional air of Zanzibar Is but a slight
variation. Turkey has no national
song, but, instead, certain hymns,
called tho Bultau's hymn or prayer
apparently changing with each rulorlTby tho state central committee at It?
Syria's typical nlr Is written back
wards, like tho Arabic. Tho Servian
national song, "Rise, Servians!" Is very
melodious, and ends curiously with a
note hlghor than the keynote. San
Marino a wee llttlo ropubllc, has tho
longest of all national nlrs, it cover
ing ten pages of note-paper. Tho
Phlllpplno Islands havo a practically
unlimited number of typical songs.
The words aro generally Improvised
for tho occasion, nnd changed without
any attomptnt rhythm. Lapland has
a curious rotndcer galop; and the na
tional song of Jumlca Is said to be
repeating tho llrst lino thrco times:
"Monkey, monkey, play tho llldle
Mako tho baboon dance."
This is u great deal to bcl love, but If
such words stir tho patriotism of the
Jamaclans, It Just shows what coffee-
drinking can do. But to return to our
own country, only ono of tho various
national songs Is said to bo of Amor
lean origin in both words und music.
This is "Hall Columbia."
