iZd ik fck- If kh ! r. x POPULISTS Battling Against Injustice. Want Representation On the Boards of Election Judges. The People partr men In this legis lature arc pot Ktondlntf out for Mr. Bourne for upeakcr or any other man as a personality, but they are (landing out as a matter of principle, for fair play In the elections. To secure this end tbey will demand an organization of the house that will enable them to rcoort. discuss and place on Its pas- wliat Is known as the Holt. any appolntraeot, Dor to remSre any Judjreor clcrlr of election without the consent. In writing, of the county central committee chairman and sec retary on whose recommendation he was appointed. UfflTED, Silver Men and Pojmllttt Urged to Stay United. re-for sage not only members election law. Tills law Js demanded by the country but In the city of Portland. A Portland paper siy: To state more sped llcally. It Is desired to have a Republican, a Democrat and a Pop ulist Judge at cich pilllnztxnth In stead of two KupuWIains and one Democrat or vice vewa, as has been the cao hereloforc. In order that this kind of legislation may obtain a favorable consideration In a Republi can house It Is deemed necessary, by the Populists and Democrat, to have tho speaker and thus the committees with them. It Is too well known that there are but two men In the Oregon legislature, who really pass laws, so to pcak, tho rcmalng88 members merely stand In 6o as to obtain favorable con sideration of some pet measures of their own. If a hill Is not wantert oy tho president of the senate or the speaker of tho house, it Is usually smothered In committee or reported adversely, and that invariably settles Its fate, It will be seen at a glance, then, that the speakership under pres ent circumstances Is most Important If not positively necessary." We print tho full textof the amend ment proposed in the Holt bill, and which toTHK Joubkal seems Jus and fair, as In many counties of the state tho People's party men are Id a. majority and now have practical con trol of tho elections. nEUE IS TUB HOLT HILL.

No county Judge of any county In this state (hall hare power to cpcl Silver fo'ces of Oregon must main united if they are sincerely free coinage. Editor Journal: We see how General James li. Weaver, of Jowa, Is trying to effect union in that state when all bis party leaders are trying to prevent It. Washburn aDd Butler are dally writing and sending cir culars all over the United States, ad vising Populists to refrain from union. Washburn says, "We must not be mere camp followers of an other party," and "we must not al low the Democratic party to swallow us." Nevertheless that veteran silver leader of Iowa is still hammering away at union. If Oregon had .more Populists of hU type she would be better off. To unite with the Dem ocrats and Silver Republicans would not.be camp-following, at least the Democratic party would not be swal lowing the Populist brethren, To still remain united means sure victory and tobeperate n-cans defeat to the silver force?. Whl'e .the Democratic and Populist party stand on the same platform, or almost the same, why will they talk of separating for some minor issue which will not do tho country any good till free silver triumphs. To persist on separation la this question, conveys the impres sion (hat the Populists arc not flghtl ng for silver hut for name and place, and has a tondency to prove that they are not sincere in their belief. One year from next Juno the voters of Oregon will be called together to elect a con gressman and legislature. For silver to triumph there must be somo good work ;donc. Will the Democrats, Populists and Sliver Republicans, unite In ono party and carry tho elec tion or will they separate and allow the tireless gsldbug to have a sweeping-victory. This will be the effect of every campaign for years to como as long as union Is not effected. The Populist party will never win to fight alone as insisted by Washburn, but will in time, become extinct. Tho Silver Republicans show that tboy are flghtlug for principle by tearing loose from their party, and advocating Independent American Bimetallism. If the two sliver party les had united In Jfcine an honest American citizen would have represented the First con gressional district of Oregon, In con gress Instead of a Englishman gold baKm. Thus wo 6ee the need of com plete union which will bjnd every part of tho silver clement In one compact body well organized, and then It will be able to cope with tho great gold monarchy. Sliver fought In the last campaign Just merely In ita infancy and did better than was really ex pected, and now as we have a deep hold wo must not turn back, must not be discouraged and forever defeat our selves by rashnesi or anything that pertains to losing courage. Democrats Populists,sllver Republtcans.Joln your hands In party union, for the great battle which Istotako place before two years rolls arouud.prcparc for cap turing congress and tho legislature for sllver,flght for each other side by side, work In perfect harmony for the next two years and your efforts will be crowned and rewarded by the greatest land-sliding victory that ever befell a political party of the state of Oregon.

Not always ; to say that would be an exaggeration, but in a large majority of cases , in advanced cases which have been gwen up as hope less. The "Discovery " ia not called a con-sumption-cure ; it is a blood-maker. It gives energy to the blood-making organs to create new Mood, full of healthy red corpuscles. This rapid supply of pure, rich, red blood drives out all diseases that have their roots ia the blood : Consomp. tion is one of these ; scrofula, malaria, ecaetaa, erysipelas, catarrh are others. It is absurd to doctor them separately at Umg, or skin, or head diseases. They t be driven out of the blood. You caa rely on the "Golden Medical Dis covery ' to do this every time.
