W"U moaey, and noud or bad money Is county go ernmenLs reduce taxation impjy a matter of legislation behind and to bring tbe burdens of tbe people witbin tbe constitutional limit by tbe election of men on a common platform tbat will not permit evasion or equivocation. People are tired of being fooled and want plain cmmon ene and positive results. It would not be proper to give these letters for publication without tbe permission or the rriters, but these few extracts from many in the various counties will show tbat tbe leaven Is working and a Union state ticket Is a fixed fact. Jackson Tbat voice of the people is the law of tbe committee, may God speed the move. Tbe plain people, of all parties, who supported Bryan and Watson, can be relied on as favorable to the proposed union. Tbe people are anxious to stand together in oppo sition to the goldbug plutocratic mo nopolies. We agree unanimously upon the urgent necessity of the re form forces of the state. Josephine I shall do all I can to bold the forces together in Southern Oregon, and especially in this county. It is highly Important that we keep the reform elements together Douglas It seems to me that if there ever was a time in the history of our country when men should act wlsely.when they should be absolutely honest, when patriotism should rise above party, when personal ambition should give way for the public good, tbat time is now. The mass of the people, In tbis county, is anxious or a consolidation of the reform forces, and the only thing, in our opinion, to be done Is to settle the details for a union instate matters. A union will bo formed. We will be represented at Albany. I am too old to do much work, but will vote right. We want union. Coos We must not light each other, we want a union of forces. Lane The time is ripe for action, your call covers the ground. The coming party must be governed by the people. Wc have very few kickers in this county. Populists, Democrats and Sliver Republicans all want to begin at the primaries. We must have the union of forces nt the pri maries, we all want It. All the Bryan and Watson forces will stay togothor. Linn I will work for a union of forces. This is the time above all others for u union of the people. Marlon We are engaged in the greatest political work ever under taken in the state. The prayers and labors of the patriots are with you. The Bryan and Watson forces must slay together. Benton It is the only thing the people can do to get relief. They must unite. y Polk You heard from Polk Inst November we will stay together. Wc want union and will stick to gether. Yamhill Average majority for the union ticket In June '00, nearly $3000 already saved In the salaries of county officers alone. Will do better In 1893. Washington We must follow the great heart of the common people, that heart that always beats right, and lmpels In the right direction when the people have been properly educated, and the good sense aud In tultllon of the masses seem to demand a union of forces. Let us follow the dictates of an educated, patriotic pub llaconsclcncound wo are sura to be right. Wo are ready for union work. Ulacknums If congress lives up to the T; Louis platform ittiuust borrow, that stamp, a ad all we want Is tbe Mme krvlslaUoo behind all mosey staaiped or issued out as a circulating medium among tbe people. We bold this statement to be clear aad inouatrurertable tbat wherever obe kind of money has to be redeemed lu tfsHie other klad of money, it pteefc. tbe government under obliga tion to swap dollars with tbe indi vidual who demands it, makes tbat demand from tbe fact tbat be sees an advantage In It to himself. We alio bold, and claim tbat there is not a bxs on record that can set aside till'. etatewnt, that all Rjoney i- depend ent entirely as to lu good or bad qualities upon tbe nature and strength of legislation upon which it Is based. It is stated, and has been told time and again so much so, tbat tbat it is supposed to be true by the great majority of tbe people tbat where the government issues a paper money, it thereby becomes in rlebt for It, and that it could not be other wise than tbat the government must redeem tbat paper money with a coin money. We as Populists make this statement perfectly conscious that we are correct that the government by stamping paper which shall be received ana shall pass as mouey and letting the individual have it, taking bis obligation for It the government is not In debt to any baby, but tbe iudividual is Indebt to the government, and when tbat per son takes back and pays to the gov ernment according to the obligation he gave in tbe same kind of money.or any kind of money that, settles the matter. If it was paper money, he paid the government could do with It just what It pleased, either burn it up and Issue new to the next man, as pay It out again. .And. where the govern ment should pay out tbat kind of money for labor, It should receive it back In taxes, tarilf, or any other way tbat might be designated whereby the government Is to receive revenue from the people. This course would doaway with the advantage that the individual can get over the government, aud tho billions of dollars that have been drawn from the labor and productive resources of tho people wlthlu the last thirty years ought to be object lesson enough for them to begin to sec the point. No Populist can ever give up or yield one of those points, though he may hold , them In abeyance for the time, like was done last fall, and though he may be crowding forward tho initiative und referendum It Is not because he has abandoned one of his ideas on the - money question, but it is because he can hope for better results when the whole people can be appealed to than he can possibly expect from one so easily cor rupted, present representative system of legislation. A Berlin dispatch says that a crisis is pending in Gerwaay, tion of Ilobesiobea and Von Breberstein kas beea tendered, but bave not yet been accepted. Count Zu Ealenbarg will be the new chan cellor. A requiem rnass was celebrated in Notre Dame for the repose of the souls of tbe victims of tbe fire at tbe charity baazar, at Paris, and mass was also celebrated in London. The Greeks in evacuating Volo were aided by the searchlights of the warships in the harbor flashing up the mountain sides pointing out tbe roads. The retreat across the moun tains was as panicky as that of the re treat from Larissa. A Valestlno dispatch says the Greek forces have evacuated Volo and de tachments of British Russia, French, Austrian and Germany troops from the warships guard the town. The capture of Volo is one of tbe most important the Turks baveyeb made, virtually dividing the Greek army and outflanking one-half which are unable to communicate with one another. hi ChhHavj?

This coeaty will be represented at Albany If presperltydoes sot bit as so hard tbat we cannot ooae. 1 am prepared to lay aside all other questtess until tbe aioney question is settled epos principles tbat will make it possible to perpetuate tbe present forai of goveraateat. Bkr I beartlly ;assare joe that Ian la sympathy with the more Biasi. Maaj-aore letters bave been received bat taey would oaly repeat tbe saate story. They are all from representative Bea la tbe state who know what tbey are writing aboet. Under date of March 15, 87, one national leader whose fame is world wide and wboe "bngle blast is worth a thousand men," writes us: I highly commend tbe union of all forces op posed to tbe single gold standard. Without such union I fear tbe in dustrial masses win never secure a lasting victory over the money and the confederated monopolies. One might as consistently oppose the churning of cream while suffering for want of butter as to oppose a union of forces while suffering untold miseries at tbe hand of a common enemy. Some of our socalled reformers are more partisan than patriotic, and put their respective parties above their God acd their country, but I think we should not.be so particular just now as to whose -party gives us the victory just so we get- It. The national campaign arrayed the money power, bondholders, trusts, the great corporations and all pro fessional boodlers with everything purchasable, all on one side. While i the plain people with all this arrayed against them and deserted by many of their great leaders, stool like aslonewall for human rights, through the fury of the conflict. They were not defeated but are still camped oh the field where they fooght eager for; All tne powers think that Greece a renewul of the content, with many coming to their assistance who al lowed themselves to be lined up on the otner side by delusive promises and the Pharisaic cry of "sonnd money," which has proven to be their apple of Sodom. The promised return of prosperity cannot be fulfilled under the gold standard. With a famine in Aslaand a war in Europe our products continue to decline. The prices of labor product!, as well as the supply and de mand, are established by trusts and syndicates. Gold continues to leave the country. American labor, and products and property are not yot cheap enougli to encourage the Investment of capital under the gold standard. Gold is again leaving the national treasury. Does Wall street intend to force another issue of bonds? Is money to be held from the people un til they are williug to submit to the 85OJ,000,O00 bond issue, In order that banks may issue bank currency on these purchased bonds? Or is It the paper mills that are to be started Instead of the mints? Will thase greedy usurers never be ware? Thore is no limit to their plundering operations. The time to stop is now. The hour lias arrived, and the people are hero. Let them act. Not as professional agitators but as American citizens whose gene alogy and conduct has been truly Amorioan from the Involution to tbe present time. If the homos and lib erties or the people are to be taken from thorn for debt ahd taxes, let thorn bo takon from us aud not from our children. Liberty and bonds can not exist in the same government any moro'than freedom ano slavory. The more bonds the le& liberty. Tho troubles of the country is from decoltful demagogues, arrant tools of the tuonoy powor. Its safety Is with tho masses CUBA tbe ideal way aad delezates so elected , kuow tbe soarce of tbeir power.

It Is expected that fully two months, if not more, will be required to make preparations for the elections aud the first installment of reforms. General Weyler will also be allowed todetermine after a complete pacifica tion of tbe Island the conditions on which political exiles will be permit ted to return to the colony, or how their treatment shall be modified in tne Spanish fortresses and penal set tlements on the coast of Africa, where about 2000 separatists or autonomists are at present, detained by virtue of decisions of the colonial authorities, without trial of any kind, but simply as suspects. Eyery mail steamer is still bringingover some "deportadoes" as they are called.

Portland, April 28. In order to make a thorough clean-up, I have made another big cut and ..marked down 300 Men's Tallor-Made All Wool Suits to the ridiculously low price of S6.00. These are not odds and ends, but well-made suits good styles all wool and warranted to give satisfac tion. This is the price, not for this week only, but until every suit is sold. Attention is called to our Boys' Wash Suits, at 30 cents, 75 cents and 81.25 worth double the money. , , Ben Selling, Assignee J. M. Moyer & Co. Cor.
