-"tT-" tH'''lfl1Qr&TH"'"rTi'fw-TfrT'-i Daily Capital Journal BY MOIKK UHOTHBR8, MONDAY, AUGUST 17, 1800. GEER-JEPhKEY-HOKER. Continued 'from first nafto. country for 817, and laid down liorc at tliat price. International bimetallism was botli nn International danger and an Inter national Impossibility. Gladstone bad nald that within- a few years England would never consent. Such an Inter national ngrccmont was a meriaco and danger in tc of trouble between two countries. As In 180') there win a eoulllet but it was the peaceful coiilllct of Ideas. As vcteraiHiind sotitt'nr veterans he ulead Tor them to present an united front ajfalnst the enemies of human ity, who ware niarslialled under the banners of the k11 'taudard. MR. or.EU'B Bl'riJSO.I. Mr. Geer was now Introduced and dlsnoscd of several fallacies, of his predecessor. The Republican party was not to blame for men being out of employment. It had not done any thing to throw n single Individual out of employment, the Populists did that. Worklugmcti might better be employed hunting employment than standing on tho streets arguing about tho money question. Jeffreys was not right In quoting Ingalls at a time when he was a demagog. We have had the gold standard for fifty years. All tho old time patriots, like Ilcnton and Jefferson, were gold standard men and declared for the gold stan dard. Mr. Geer read from a message of Gov. Holes, asserting great pros perity In 1801 and 1802. A monoy sys tem Is good for nothing unless based on something which has Intrinsic value. Tho proposition, now made, was to coin silver at 1(1 to 1. When It Is worth .11 to 1 In tho world's mar kets, as a commodity, we could only coin It up at Its commercial ratio. Wlioro did the fathers of .our country over abandon tho commercial ratio? They hud weighed all tho silver coin ages of all tho civilized countrles,aud had found tho commercial ratio to Ifi or silver to 1 or gold. Later they changed It to 10 to 1. Mr. Geer related how with a self binder ho and his son now harvested 1J0 acres of grain that formerly took live or six hands to harvest, llo de clared that legislation had never alTcctcd tho value of a slnglo dollar In any country In tho world and never would. When shown the constitution declaring It to bo tho duty or con gress to "coin monoy and regulate tho valuo thereof," ho changed his state ment to "purchasing power of a dol lar," and usscrtcd that legislation had never affected tlint.J Mr. Oeor closed with another appeal to Republicans to hold their lines solid and to voto straight. Tills was tho banner Republican precinct of Southern Oregon and It should not fall in Novombor to glvo u rousing majority to that grand man from Ohio, tho standard bcaror of sound money and protection. Mr. Geer closed amid great applauso and had made tho best presentation of tho Re publican sldo or tho argument that has over been heard at Ashland. Uo Is tho ablest champion or McKluley In Oregon. HANDBOMK II0CJUKT8 had been presented to Mr. Jeffrey and Mr. Geer. Mr. liofer of tho Salem Jouhnai. now arose to reply to tho champion or tho Waldo Hills. Ho again complimented his opponents on their ability and honesty and said although Mr. Geer had devoted half liliitlmoto psrsonalltles, ho should try to devote himself solely to tho question at lusuo. Shall we in November tleolnro for gold monomet allism or for independent American blmeUilJUni? The old raldlora res. money or our country instead of being out had been threatened, that tliolr ow,,t!l1 hy " Monuy ",ust bo l" pensions would bo paid In 1lfty.tliao'se,v,u" (,r tM0 lMX,',,e' ""tthelrmasfer - GAIL BORDEN EAGLE Brand .CONDENSED f!IL!L. Haa No Equal LD SVJjjyttYHERHjl' ggM cent allver dollars. Jn 1800 when Mr. Geer sald wo had tho gold standard tho'ltoldlers had enlisted at $13 a month In coin. They were paid In depreciated money and while every effort had been made to protect the J bondholder against loss by depreci ated money, tho country had never concerned it'seir about the 40 and CO cent dollars the soldiers wcro paid In. The old soldiers would as loyally uphold every dollar ever li-sued bv this government as they had the Hag. Applause. They would prcrcr pen sions under a money system that would restore general prosperity to pensions under a gold standard that would crush the industries or the country they had fought to preserve. The 'speaker'' again resented the imnutatlou that the supporters of Ilrynn were hostile to wealth. The producing clauses of our country were Interested In piotectlng wealth and property. They would say to the men of wealth, keep your wealth, enforce your gold cont tacts, take ir need bo the property that must pass into your hands, but let us make it possible to create new wealth out of the bound- Ijss resources of our soil and our labor and give us a just money system rounded up'iu labor and not a cons tantly appreciating measure of values. '(Applause.) THE KRAI, PUOI1I.EM. In this campaign was found In tho de pressed condition or agriculture. Un der constantly railing values or rami products the produce or the soil coilld no longer meet tho fixed charges on land. The runners or our country wcro compelled to pay their debts un der the gold standard and sell their products In competition with silver standard countries. Wc exported $17, 000,000 wortli or sliver bullion at hair prlco last year to be converted Into coins to buy wheat, wool, hides, meats, cotton and othor staples In tho silver standard countries with which our farmers had to compete In tho mark cts or the world. Wo wcro giving England tho cheap silver club to beat our own brains out with. Under this competition tho fanner could not pay his Interest, support his family and educate his children. Ho could not employ labor ut cash wages but labor lug men wore forced Into tho cities whoro not half of them could bo em ployed but were red at tho soup-houses and only tho worst evils could follow such a condition. WAOK-KAIlNBit AND IlIMBTALLlflM. Tihut policy Is beat for tho wage- oarhor which will lead to tho greatest doinand for his services. Wages and prollts or. business como from sale of products. If products bring low prices or aro produced at a loss labor will suffer. Falling prices aro not beneficial to employed or em ployer. Whatever cuts Into tho profits of In dustry tlirowsagc earners outof em ployment on factory and farm. In 1872 acreage or cereal crops was 08,280,107, valuo $874,C0l,450, avorago valuo per aero 812.81. In 1803 valuo or cereal crops was $1, 017,310,030, valuo per aero $0.78,or$0.03 less por aero than in 1872. Total loss by decline in va lues 000,000,000. Decline on all crops ai.&OO.OOO.OOO as measured by prices In 1872. Under this rail In prices runners cannot consume products or American factories. Distress of both farmer and laborer is greater than over after twenty years of railing prices. With the rail In prices that has taken place ln twenty years debts have becomo doubly burdensome. Tho debt or mortgage contracted ten or twenty years ago takes twice tho pro ducts or labor to pay It off. Wo have reduced tho national debt one-half but have contracted tho debt-paying power of products more than one hair. Tho disparity between money and debts and monoy and products Is far greater than thodlsparlty or gold and silver. The people must civnto and own tho mm imiiivMUf, iumn iiuisii govern woalth, and tho Intorests of wealth must become subordinate to tho Intor eht or tho people. Tho eoplo cannot Mirrcudcr their sovereign power "to coin money and regulate tho valuo thcreor." It will only lead to com merclal uimrohyuiud turn tho human race baok Utho sojiil-uivUlzed ngesnf barter and trade. WHO HAD IIBF.tf BWAI.LOWP.D. Mr. Geer had said the People's party and Silver party have been swallowed lirtlin Democratic nartv. It Is not true. The Democratic convention swallowed the best principles of the People's party and the old patriotic American doctrine or the Republican party, that the people are sovereign over t he money power. Applause. The Republicans denounced Cleve land's tariff policy and then declare for his financial policy the establish ment of the Urlllsh gold slrnndard. The Democrats kicked the gold standard and Wall street crow out or their convention and hoisted the Hag of Independent action, while tli- II'- publican convention endorsed (.'lew land's financial policy, knuckled down to Wall street, and hol.stcd the flag ot financial distress, begging old England to come to the rex'iie ofntir country. In conclusion Mr. Hofer said the gold standard advocate docs not ex pect the support of Democrats or Populists. Mr. Geer says he docs not hope to convert a single Democrat or Populist to his views. Ho docs not give silver Republicans credit for any Intelligence. Ho says ho simply wants to hold all tho old Republicans in lino and thus carry Oregon by 20,000 for the gold standard. He will not be able to carry Jackson county, or Marlon county, or the state or Oregon by un appeal to partisan spirit rather than patriotism. God pity n cause so weak that It can appeal to.a majority only because It is a majority and not because It is right! .Mr. Hofer was also presented with a bouquet by the ladles or Ashland and warmly congratulated by all present on his reply to Mr. Geer. A good report for Ilryanand bimetallism will 1)0 sent up from the McKlnloy stronghold or Jackson county. On Saturday a largo list of subscribers was raised for Tin: Oni: Ui:nt Silver Daily and Mr. Horcr went to Med- rord to organ I zo a llryan club. Be Sure you arc Right And then go ahead.

ONE ELECTORAL TICKET. The neople or Oregon demand 11 square vote In tho presidential elec tion In November. Tho money ques tion must Ims settled and In many states union electoral tickets nre be ing arranged. In Washington, Iowa, and other stntes agreements have been reached so that there shall bo but one ticket or electors in the held against tho gold standard electors. Tho situation tho past week has grown stronger Tor llryan. In Oregon tho work Is well under way tor an union or forces in 0110 set or Ilrynn electors, that tho Demo cratic, People's nntl American silver party can support. Tho dvsnentte rnr. rles a dreadful load on his back. It seems as If lie were reallv made up of two men. One of theru ambi tious, brainy and en erpetlc; the other nick, listless, peevish and without force. The weak mon weighs the other one down, The dyspep. tic may be able to do pretty pood work one day, and the next day becntisr nf um. lit. tie indiscretion in eating; he may be able to do nothing at all. He isn't capable of con tinuous and vigorous effort. His bodily dis. comfort affects his mind. Itven when he knows just what is the matter, he neglects the simplest precautions and the slmpU treatment that would cure him, Most of dyspepsia starts with constipation, and con. stipattoii can be cured, Constipation is the cause of nine -tenths of all human sick, tics. Some of its symptoms arc sick and bilious headache, dlulness. sour stomach, loss of appetite, foul breath, windy belch, ings, heartburn, pain and distress after eat ing. All these are indicative of derange, ments of the live, stomach and bowels, and all are caused by constipation. I)r, Pierce's 1'leasant l'ellets are the quickest, easiest and most certain cure for this condi tion. They arc quick, but not violent in lueir acuou. mere is notntng about them that will give the system any shock They not only relieve Immediately, but If taken according to directions, they will absolutely cure. " You do not become a slave to their use." They are different and better than any other pill or preparation offered for the Mine iunose.
