EDITORIAL.
Glye the people a clean campaign.
The A. P. A. machine managers
are still doing business In the party
which they have nearly wrecked.
The city of Des Molns, Iowa,
.strongly Republican re-elected Its
"munlclplal ownership" mayor and
will buy its waterworks and electric
light plant.
Unless the Union state campaign
management can be completely sev
ered from the control of unclean
and corrupt Portland methods and
managers of RepubUcan factions It
will be handicapped before tht people
and does not deserve to win.
The One Cent Daily received a
large addltlop of subscribers durimr
the Republican convention. It is
recognlicd as a fair newspaper and
considers Its large list of Republican
subscribers a great compliment. Our
Daily acd Weekly lists are all paid
cash In advance and are the largest, in
Oregon next to the Oregonlan.
THE CRUELTY OF POLITICS.
It is the duty of the Sliver forces of
Multnomah county to put a complete
ticket In the Held on the Union plat
form. To leave a slDgle offlce vacant
will be to raise the suspicion that It
Is done to help the Mitchell or Cor
bett faction and will destroy the con
fidence of the people In the Interior of
the state who don't want to be hoo
dooed any longer.
Mr. Geer has received a handsome
endorsement of his aspiration to be
come governor of Oregon by giving
him a solid Instructed delegation In
Marlon county. It Is suggested that
the delegation are to jive Governor
Lord a complimentary vote in the
convention at Astoria. That would
us u graceful act, butjlt Is not likely
that the Geer managers will permit so
kindly and considerate an action.
The Republicans do not propose any
Increase of the money volume of our
country. They propose contraction.
Tne present per capita Is about $23.
The average per capita of bank paper
credit Is 893 69, or oyer four times the
total money function of the govern,
ment. (See Money for February, 1898
The Union party alone proposes a safe
and sound Increase. (See platform.)
No sensitive man has any business
In politics and fortunately those who
engage therein soon come to have a
thick skin, and hardened nerves. In
spite of the hardening process there
are acts that on their face bear the
stamp of intentional cruelty. This
was the case in the candidacy of R.
u. Alien or bllyerton, for the noml
nation for county clerk.
Mr. Allen Is a farmer and fruit
grower, has a liberal education, Is a
thorough business man and Is one of
the most competent men who has
ever been in the clerk's offlce. He was
deputy for two years under L. V.
Eblen, but the combinations were
secretly formed in the campaign of 1896
and Mr. Allen was asked to step out
to make a place for Mr. F. A. Tur
ner. In the convention Tuesday Mr. Al
len was the leading candidate and
would have been nominated If the
convention had been left to Its delib
erate choice. But some of the bosses
determined to prevent Mr. Allen's
nomination and so one after another
of the candidates were withdrawn In
favor of Mr, Hall of Woodburn.and he
was nominated when Mr. Allen lacked
but four votes.
It is to be regretted that so clean,
able and competent a man as Mr. Al
len had proved himself to be was de
feated in so unfair a manner. Mr.
Allen Is a pioneer of our county and a
gentleman who has been loyally sup
porting the Republican party all his
life. lie Is a man however, whom the
bosses positively could not use for an
dirty work whatever and they did not
want him for cleik.

J. S. McEwen in Coquille Herald:
The usual statement "showing" the
amount of gold and sliver coins' and
other currency "In circulation" on
the first of January, 1893, Is inter
resting for what it conceals. While
itmltghtbe improper to accuse Its
authorities of actlye and abstract
mendacity, a very little analyst of
the figures will serve to demonstrate
that they are calculated, and doubt
less intended, to mislead -the public
as to the real condition and distri
bution of the nation's circulating
medium.
There Is nothing partlculary new
about this. For some years the sta
tistical end of the treasury has juggled
with monetary facta and figures, in a
yaln effort to make black appear
white. We are used to that, and the
only pity Is that so much public time
and money should be spent In the
preparation of statements which no
longer command credence. Following

opinion that it would be party and
national treason for the Democrats In
congress to permit the passage of a
partisan census bill. Let us have
some statistical work, by way of
change, not intended to deceive, but
designed and organized to get at the
rock bottom truth.
C. 13. Moorcs, register of the land
offlce was at our county convention,
a living example of prosperity.
The Union legislature ticket In Ma
rlon county, Including Joint senator
from Marlon and Clackamas, was
nominated without the use of money.
It will be elected by direct votes of
the people, without corruption, brib
ery, repeating or fraudulent voting.
There will be eight votes In the legis
lature that will not bow down to any
Portland sack candltato for United
States senator. So may It be all oyer
the state.
The Eugene Register declares fran
tically that Will R. King is "Pen
noyer's satellite," for the United
States senate. It adds:
"If the people of Oregon desire to bo
misrepresented in Washington by Mr.
Pennoyer, the arch-demagogue of
American politics, let them support
W. R. King for governor."
The Register does not know King.
Itdoes not understand the Union or
ganization. We do not believe it can
bo handled In the Interest of Pen
noyer, Mitchell, Corbett, or any other
man. Tiie three party Union is a
protection against thut.

The Republican bosses and boodle

modesty Is inspiring.

The treasury calmly states the per
capita of circulation among the Amer
ican people January 1, 1893 as $23.34,
as compared with 322.87 on January 1,
1897. To make this appear, all the
reserves of national banks are all re
serve funds held by other banks trust
companies and so on, and treated as
being In active circulatien: a proposi
tion which would appear ridiculous to
any schoolboy not advanced beyond
his primer of arithmetic. It is an
estimate accepted by most experts,
that In one way or another, nearly or
quite one-half of the nominal vol
ume of our currency Is permanently
locked up In the form of bank re
serves. The manner In which the treasury
statement treats the gold coinage of
the nation Is a clear illustration of
the dislngcnlousnessof our financial
authorities. The amount of gold coin
"In circulation" Is made up by taking
the general stock of gold coined or
Issued, whlcn Is placed at 3690,478,536,
deducting from that sum the amount
of gold In the treasury, 3150,010,176,
and crediting the remainder to "gold
In clrculrtion." Such calculations
arc worse than valueless. Econo
mists of all shades of doctrine are
agreed that not less than 60 per cent
of the country's gold coinage has an
nually been absorbed in tho arts,
that a much larger proportion has
Into them during the periods of small
production. Applying that rule to
the figures, wo should hayc a general
Block of gold amounting In round
numbers to 3120,000,000, and after de
ducting the treasury gold from that,
about $263,000,000 In circulation In
stead of 3547,563,360, as Mr. Gage
would like to have us believe. But,
even taking tho reduced figure of
$263,000,000, how much of that gold
does anyone suppose Is In free circu
lation among the farmers, merchants
and laborers of tho country? Practi
cally every dollar of It Is hived In the
vaults of banks and trust companies.
Taking all these considerations to
gether, while It Is beyond the power
of any statlstlcan to axactly fix the
real volume of money, or tho per cap
ita -In actual freo circulation among
the people, It docs not require statis
tical ability to detect the utter fall
acy of the treasury figures on these
points. There Is not a shadow of
probability that tho actual sum per
capita Is more than half of the amount
claimed, while we are lucllned to be
Ileyo that the government would find
great dltllculty in showing upon any
satisfactory grounds -that It exceeds
seven, or at the outside, eight dollars
a head.
When such administrative efforts to
obscuro the truth regarding the cur
rency situation are not only possible,
but accepted and laughed at as quite
natural, and in tho line of "r'hxI pol-

UNION PLATFORM.
United in a common cause For the tactcd
purpose of pre-rving the principles of gov
ernment by the whole people, in fact as well
as in name, restoring and maintaining equal
ity, nnder that government, o( all classes, we,
the people's Democratic and Silrer Repub
lican parties of ths state of Oregon, waving
all minor points of difference, and uniting for
the purpose of carrying out the greatest un
derlying principles upon which we are all
ag.ced, do make and present to the people of
tnis stale tne following declaration of prin
ciples, and to the carrying out of which we
solemnly pledge each a- d every candidate
upon our united ticket:
First We demand the free and umestricted
coinage of tilrer and gold at the present
legal ratio of 1 6 to I, without waiting for
the consent of foreign nations and we are
unalterably opposed to the policy r.f the
present Republican administration in de
manding the retirement of greenbacks, and
the turning over of the money making power
of the government to the national banks, as
presented by the bill drawn by the Repub
lican secretary of the treasury, and indorsed
by President McKinley; and we efpecially
denounce the avowed attempt by said bill to
fasten the country irrevocably and forever to
the single Gold stindard.
We demand a national money, safe and
sound, issued by the general government
only, without the intervention of the banks
of issue, to be a full legal tender for all
debts public and private, a1soajut, equit
able and efficient means of distribution direct
to the people through the lawful disburse
ments of the government.
We demand that the volume of circulating
medium be speedily increased to an amount
sufficient to meet the demands of the busi
ness and population of this country, and to
restore the just level of prices of labor and
prodnction.
We favor such legislation as will prevent
for the future the demonetization of any
kind of legal tender money by private con
tract. We demand that the government, In pay
ment ol its obligations shall use us option
as to the kind of lawful money in which
they are to be paid, and we denounce the
preient and preceeding administraitons for
surrendering this option to the holders of
government obligations,
We demand that there shall be no further
issue of Un'ted States interest-bearing bonds.
We demand that postal savings banks be
established by the government for the safe
deposit of the savings of the people and to
facilitate exchange.
We demand the election of United States
senators by direct vote of the people.
We demand the initiative and referendum
system of law-making in its optional form,
local, state and national, and the submission
by congress of all important national questions
for an adivsory vo'e of the people, until such
time as the national constitution shall have
been amended so as to provide for direct leg
islation. e condemn as dangerous and uniast the
surrender, in all departments of the govern
mert, to the influence of trusts, corporations
and aggregations of wealth generally and
the packing of the highest courts of the land
with corporation lawyers, too ready to do
the will of their late employers, and to set
aside valid and wholesome laws passed by
the legislative departments of the states and
government, upon flimsy pretexts, at the be
hests of such institutions.
We are opposed to government by injunc
tion. In state matters, we demand.

eagerness for the spoils of office, has become
divided into warring factions, so that it is in

condition existing in the office of the state
treasurer, there being at this time more than
$500,000 therein wrung from the peoplo by
the process of taxation, while state warraits
are stamped "Not paid for want of funds."
We demand that all districts and county
officers be placed upon salaries commensur
ate with the duties to be performed by them.
Iuasmuch as railroads and other corporate
property U not bearing us proportion of tax

bear its just and equal share of the expenses
of government.
Washingso.v, April 6. The house
committee on foreign affairs met, and
Captain Slgsbee, Admiral Irwin and
several experts in explosives had been
summoned to give testlmonv regard
ing the blowing up of the Maine.
Representative Quigg, of ew York,
before he entered the committee-room
said Spain would be held responsible
for the blowing up of the Maine. He
is In favor of reporting a resolution in
structing the president to drive Spain
from the Western hemisphere.
In his testimony Slgbee stated It
was his opinion that the Maine was
blown up by a submarine mine located
by the Spanish authorities. The com
mittee is to meet again to prepare the j
text of resolutions to be submitted to
the house.
Members of the committee believe
war Is Inevitable, unless Spain makes '
a square backdown. '
The senate committee on foreign j
relations met for the especial purpose
of deciding whether the committee
should make its report on the Cuban
situation or postpone action until the
president's message is received. Sena
tor Davis had seen Assistant Secre
tary Day, previous to the meeting of
the committee, and was able to give
assurance that thp way was clear for
the message. Frye had a conference
with the president, and it is under
stood showed a disposition to allow
the time absolutely necessary to take
care of our consuls In Cuba.

Turner (Wash.) in the senate made
a vigorous speech In favor of Cuba
freedom. He said the adminlttratlon
had not acted as It should, or It would
haye freed Cuba before this. He laid
greate stress upon the destruction of
the Maine, saying Spain was respon
sible. He would cheerfully vote for a
declaration of war He said Spain
was a nation of cruelty, deceit and
blood .
The galleries were crowded, despite
a snow and slpet storm.
narrls (Kan.) followed Turner. The
Cubans had earned liberty by blood
and tears, he said. lie charged the
destruction of the Maine to official
treachery on the part of Spain. That
blackest crime of all nations, he de
clared, would not be allowed to be
come a mere Incident. Harris was ap
plauded by the galleries.
Deboe (Ky.) said his state was
united in fayor of Cuban Independ
ence, and the people of Cuba deserved
ttit sympathy of the clylllzed world.
Kenney, (Del.) said If a resolution of
belligerency had been passed by the
house Cuba would have been free and
the loss to lives and millions of treas
ure saved. The diplomatic clap-trap,
be said, could no longer stop ven
geance for Innocent blood or prevent
Cuba's freedom.
Chandler followed Kenny and was
listened to with great interest, ne
8aldthat the United States should
Immediately declare war against
Spain and maintain that war until the
people of Cuba were free from Span
ish starvation and cruelty, and the
government of the Island finally estab
lished as an Independent republic.
Turple followed, ne said It was the
duty of the American congress to In
tervene for the Cuban republic. The
destruction of tho Maine, he declared
was an insult which could only be re
paired by making It Impossible for It
to occur again by placing Cuba an
Havana out of the power of Spali,
forever.
Tho senate then took up the Sun
dry civil appropriation bill.
Members of congress arc receiving
