New York Racket
Is always in the lead in styles as well as in prices
Dout a year ago there was a general advance in
? rices on all lines of heavy shoes. The New
ork Racket was the last to advance their prices,
Now that the prices have declined, especially on
heavy shoes, they arc the first to reduce their
prices. Our customers will find all lines of
heavy work shoes down to about the prices that
prevailed before the advance, Our line of men's,

General "Weaver's great speech at
Rced'B opera house was a complete
failure In one respect. It was n dem
agogic appeal to distress and calamity
without showing the people how to
better themselves.
He showed up some of the evils of
tho present finance system, and proved
that the Cleveland gold bond Iniquity
was tho worst of all, and tho Demo
crat party a dead duck.
Hut he never assailed the Ropubll
cnti party's cardinal principle tho
necessity for a protective- tariff as a
prerequisite of revenue and financial
reform.
THE RRFORM WEAKNESS.
The fundamental weakness of Gen
eral Weaver's speech, and Indeed tho
fatal weakness of all tho fchronIc re
form movements up to date, Is their
Ignoring tho tariff question. Tho
party or statesmanship that ignores
protection to American Industries as
a vital Issue, a fundamental princlplo
of American prosperity, simply makes
ltsolf Impossible.
Why? Any school boy can tell you.
We have tho greatest undeveloped
producing country on tho face of tho
earth. Wo have seventy millions of
loyal, industrious, intelligent, God-
sfearltisr people. Wlmtrfiwrt? What
is the noxt factor in tho problem of
national existence, peace and prosper
ity? It Is simply this: With a rich
country and n grand ncoplo, still
those people must be employed. They
must have wtfrk.
All American industries must bo
thrown open to tho employment of
American labor. Not one must bo
crippled or neglected. Wo must quit
importing wool and Iron products and
hundreds of millions of dollars of pro
ducts of pauper Ialor, and employ our
own labor, thus putting money in em
ulation among poor people who must
spend It to live and thus inako a de
mand for American products.
What General Weaver said about
tho money question and tho evil ef
fects of tho British money standard is
all Important and in great part un
answerable. Hut no matter what tho
money system, it cannot alone pro
duce prospcrlty.when American labor
Is unemployed and tho American
homo market is destroyed by tho freo
trade Wilson bill.
General Weaver's union of reform
forces on tho Blnglo platform of freo
and unlimited coinago of silver will
never make a national party while It
ignores tho question of adequate pro
tection to all American Industries.
That Is the keystone in tho arch of
American prosperity and tho jwoplo
will not iw deceived by the silver cry.
Tho Oregon Populist platform con
fessses that American labor cannot
complete with tho pauper labor of
Europe and Asia. Put the Populist
politicians, who arc mostly free
traders, had not tho courage to tell
tho people that tho only way to obvi
ate this destructive competition Js by
fearless application of the principles
of an American protective tariff as
advocated by tho Republican party.

Editor Jeurnal: I 6ce by numer

city that tho famous Beauscant's
French mediums are going to
be at the opera house, Bundiiy

with tho Vcauseants, and I know
there are tricksters using their name.
I also know how a great many of
these so-called manifestations are
produced. I shall attend this bcance
and expose theso people if they are
not the genuine licauseants. I shall
force myself on tho stage rather than
tricks shall be called spiritualism.
By giving tills space In your valuable
paper, you will benollt and oblige a

Somo or the men taping about tho

case of ftho pot calling the kcttlo
black.

Tho Oregonlau seems determined
to split tho Republican' party on tho
moncy'tpitlfii5 It hTall'apllt up the
back ttseirr
T1)A' people of this congressional
district breathe easier. Hon. Gio. C.
Brownell no longer rattles around as a
congressional possibility.
One ticket: C. P. Huntington for
president. FrfO passes for all tho
office-holders, nnd office-seekers and
their families.
It is gohiK to bo a happy, good
natured Republican year. It is almost
Impossible to make anybody mad.
Tun Journal has tried and failed.
It Is thought Hon. C. B. Moorcs
will take part lu tho campaign long
enough this year to tell nhout tho
mule that died at Maclcay lu 1801.
The Republican party dosu't want
Foghorn Watts, Racehorso Apperson
and old man Caplcs all good men In
their day appointed receiver In
Oregon.
.
Dr. Foghorn Watts seems to bo
"managing" things In Yamhill. Why
don't they resurrect a few moro Rip
Van Winkles to corral tho young
blood.
Two thousand people of Portland
aro asking Pcnnoycr to become mayor
of Portland. Before hols Inolllcoa
year more than that will v& asking
him to quit.
In Lane county the cry of tho old
politicians Is anything to down Baker,
Just as lu Marion county It was any
thing to down Barkloy. But both
will get there somoliow.
New Jcrocy has Just reduced all
salaries of state officials. That Is a
very unpatriotic movement to
Inaugurate against the poor office
holders theso hard times.
It docs one's heart good to read of
such men us Harvey Scott, Jo Simon
and Henry McGinn posing us reform
ers. Thoy must have been at one or
Elder Barkley's prayer meetings.
Editor Fletcher, or tho Post, has
been In deep consultation with Editor
Goodhue, or tho Poultry Journal to
ascertain somo lino points about
breeding fowls .Like somo of his
puiibicui prouuciious, iney giyo no
satisfactory result.
Populist politicians aro squealing
nnd abusing tho Bystander because ho
made fun of tho shape of their heads.
That don't change the almpo of tho
professional hat -passer's head. And
It won't stop on the Bystander mak
ing fun or tho professional politician
In whatever party ho finds himself.
In reply to why didn't you mnko a
platform, a prominent Marlon county
politician mud, "Wo didn't want any.
What wo want Is tho offices. Politics
Is business with me." Too many pco-
plo aro trading tho franchises of their
constituents for olllce. This kind of
Republicans aro going to find that
thero will beta platform made Tor
them, both in Oregon and St. Louis,
and tho pcoplo will make it. It will
bo hot stuff for Just such men as tho
aboyo.
TiieJouhnal. man's most ardent

of tho Postsays, "Ever since Col.
Hofcr fallcoordecllid tO'treton

publican as he was before, . Adversity
generally brings out tho best qual
ities or a man." Tho abovo is a com
pliment that any truo man ought to
appreciate lu polltlos. It will go far
toward making tho erstwhile governor
of Dakota governor of Oregon.
