the State, In some man tier and form,
to -express their Individual faith.
thank you most earnestly, most sin-1
ccrciy, tor mo iiistinguisncd honor
you havo shown me. In thlaycarlEOO
it Is an honor to oo a Republican. It
Is a doublo honor to bo In a Republi
can convention, and it la tho liluhcst
of nil liquors to bo called to preside
over a Republican convention. At no
time In tho history of our country
has a man had a greater right to com
pliment himself on tho fact of his
bolng a Republican. Four years ago
tho Democratic party gained control
of our government. It possessed every
cxeoutlvo branch, and, as a re
sult, today wo enjoy tho prosperity
that tho Democratic party has
given to us. Then tho country was a
humming bcehlvo of Industry. Tho
Democratic party started where It
had loft otf In 1800, and almost tho
ilrst thing It did was to haul down tho
American Hag which had been raised
at Honolulu. This douo, camo tho
Wilson bill, and with it tho funeral
of hope and prosperity. The work
shops wero shut up. Every American
Industry was prostrated, and since
thon wo havo enjoyed In Its fullest
senso Democratic prosperity. In this
tlmo of profound peace, wo arc called
upon to witness a secretary of tho
treasury calling foe bonds to meet tho
expenses of tho government, and to
day our indebtedness has Increased In
tills Democratic administration nearly
$00,000,000, and this In a tlmo or
peace. There Is a wave of protection
rising, starting from tho grand old
state of Ohio. (Cheers.) It Is sweep
ing east and west, north and south,
and on tho foremost wavo, on tho top
most crest, Is Inscribed McKinley and
protection.' (Great cheering.)
"Let us, all or us, Join In Insuring a
lusty republicon victory. Lot us
march under ono banner, with ono
purpose In view to glvo to the people
tho grandest government on earth.
"Wo must riso above all factional
feeling, all factional strife, and a man
who cannot do so Is unworthy tho
namoof a republican. Lot us start
tho ball rolling toward victory; Lot us
unite all our forces In ono grand effort,
not to light among ourselves, but tho
enemy."
Mr. Fulton's remarks woro well
received, antf as ho closed, they wero
loudly' applauded. When tho "cheer
ing had subsided, ho asked, "What Is
your pleasure, gentlomen.?"
Early Fruit Destroyed.
Poutland, April f). Tho amount
of damage done to tho fruit crop by
tho last frcczc-up has been pretty well
ascertained, and It Is moro serious
than at ilrst supposed, but not so bad
as It might havo been. Practically,
tho entire peach crop of tho state has
been destroyed, In tho vicinity of
Medford tliero may bo a tenth of a
crop, but to all Intents and purposes
tho peach crop Is douo for. Early
cherries arc also completely destroyed,
and 60 per cent of early prunes woro
killed. Early pears wero also Injured
to koiiio extent.
Thcso facts are obtained from Mr.
M. O. Lowusdalc, who has carefully
looked into tho matter. IIo says It
was not a frost that did tlio Itijuiy,
but a regular frcczo-up, the like of
which so lato In tho spring has not
been known hero slnco tho state was
settled. Tho only consolation fruit
growers have Is that tho trees on
which tho fruit was killed will havo a
rest this season and will mako an ex
tra growth. No ono need bo alarmed
about n scarcity of fruit, as there will
bo plenty of lato cherries, pcars.plums,
apples, etc.
