OREGON POLITICALLY
Opening Gun of the Cam
paign Was Fired,
AT MACLEAY WEDNESDAY EVE.
The
Hayseed Candidates Make
Good Impression
Macleay, April 21. Tho opening
gun of tho camralgn In Marlon
county was fired here Wednesday
night, when the Macleay Union Bl
ruetulllc club held a rousing political
meeting. There was a splendid audl
unco present, Including a large at
tendance of ladles and young people.
Great enthusiasm prevailed. There
was an appropriate literary program
carried out as usual. It was a regular
war meeting In behalf of Cuba free
dom from the start, and the patriotic
sentiments of tho speakers were re
ceived with great cheering, The
temper of the meeting disclosed the
fact that the American people with,
out party division favor tho Independ
ence and liberation of Cuba and aro
heartily In sympathy with the ag
gressive policy of the American con
gress CANDIDATES PRESENT.
Candidates on the ticket, of the
Union party, were present as follews:
Hon. L. C. Orllllth for state senator.
F. A, Myers for representative, K. L.
Qlbbard for county clerk, Frank Dur
bin for sheriff, C L. Slmeral for treas
urer and C, Marsh for county commis
sioner. Tho gentlemen were all called
out to make short speeches and made
a very favorable Impression. They
put themselves squarely on record In
harmony with the sentiments of their
platform. Macleay precinct, which
has heretofore been a Republican
stronghold, will leave the Gold Stand
ard party a very small margin of
vote9. Hon. E Hofer, tho hayseed
orator of The Capital Journal, was
present and delivered tho main
speech for the evening. For an hour
and a half ho rovlowed tho vital issues
of the campaign. He eulogised
the Union county and legislative
ticket and refcrrsd briefly to some of
tho candidates on the state ticket.
Tho mention of lion. Will R. King
for governor, and Hon. Harrison It.
Klncald for secretary of state elicited
great applause.
Discussing tho monoy question, tho
speaker showed up the Gago policy
disowned by many Republicans. Col.
Ilofer showed that for eighty years
prior to 1873 there had been practical
and substantial bimetallism and ac
tual free coinage of silver. The coin
ago and bullion value of the two
metals at a ratio of about 151 to 1 had
yarlcd during that tlnioi only fluctu
atcd a few per cent, and tho price
lcyel of all staple products in tho
markets of the world had been main
tained during that period. Slnco tho
demonetization of silver in 1873 the
level of prices had beon disturbed and
values of products and property had
been destroyed. Republicans who
really wanted to restore prices should
be willing to restoro bimetallism,
Mr. Ilofer challenged any gold stand
ard orator to refute his historical
statements as to the maintenances of
the level of prices up to 1873. Unloss
Republicans could refuto those histor
ical facts It was their duty to vote for
bimetallism If thoy really favored
restoration of values.
STATE ISSUES.
Tho speaker did not refer to Mr.
Geer other than as an mnlablo expo
nent of the .rold standard theory.
no commented on tho fact that two
ot tho most Important places on tho
Republican stato ticket had been
filled with Republican county officials
from counties whero tliero had been

publican county treasurers, and that
these treasurers had not been convic
ted and the tax-payers had not recov
ered their money. Pointing to Mr.
Klug Htbbard, the Union candidate
for county clerk, Mr. Ilofer said that
If he were elected and would for three
years certify to the correctness of
semi-annual statements from the
county treasurer, when In reality
there was a defalcation covered up In
official reports, he would pledge the
Union party that it would not nom
inate Mr. II I board for secretary of
stite.
The entire meeting was an earnest
demonstration of a determination on
the part of tho people to secure sub
stantial reforms in their county and
state government. The speakers were
hospitably entertained at the home
of Judge and Mrs. John B. Waldo.
JOURNAL X-RAYS.
The Statesman's criticism of Mr.
Klncald'a decision neither suggests
Its errors, nor points out the law,
Able, Is It not?
There were a-good many heads s walled
with their political importance, that
have resumed their normal condition
since the political conventions have
como and gone,
Some of our aspirants for office, who
were at Astoria, expecting "lightning
to strike them," must bp sorely dis
appointed that their aspirations
turned out to bo only a flash "In the
pan."
One or two Republicans, accustomed
to a sinecure ofllce, such as pretended
services at the asylum, think they
will be able very soon to revive the
sinecure and renew their old Job.
Well, wo will see; but wo wonder
whether their services will be grat
uitous. The Spanish people will not go to
war with our country. They will
overthrow their monarchy before
they will sacrifice three or four hun
dred thousand of the best blood and
chivalry of Spain, to say nought of
wasting millions of treasure.
The whole land echoes and rever
brates with the booming of cannon
and tho strains of martial music. But
this does not drown the merry tune
the gubenatorlal bee Is buzzing In the
bonnet of the sage of the Waldo hills.
The same old Republican adminis
tration is reigning at the court house.
Five of tho court house crowd were re
nominated and tho Statue of Justice
still adorns tho tower. Tho States
man's suggestion was not acted upon.
Did the Mitchell push mean those
ratification speeches for sarcasm, or
was it simply Idiocy ? It was cer
tainly perfunctory.
Congress acted patriotically; Me-
Klnley failed.
The Journal sustained McKlnley's
conseryatlve policy toward Spain un
til his last message was Issued. That
was too weak to command respect of
any largo patriotic element. Now
The Journal believes that McKln
ley Intends to do his duty if he is not
overruled by his cabinet and other
"Influences."

Ittlo Wattle Toozle, postmaster of

ONE DISFRANCHISED
Kincaid Has Filed Middle
Roader Ticket
NO ONE IS TO BE SHUT OUT.
The Mandamus Proceedings Have
Not Been Begun,
The newspapers have been misrep
resenting Sccretaey Klncald. He
has never tried to shut out the filing
of the ticket of any party.
The Mlddle-Roader nominations
have been filed, but the manner of
placing them on the ticket has not
yet been determined upon. Tho Re
publicans are trying to make great
capital out of a charge that the sec
retary of state seeks to disfranchise
some one.
The Mlddle-Roaders wanted them
filed In such form that the regular
Peoples party nominations could not
have got onto the ticket at all. It
was not so much the desire of the
Mlddle-Roaders to get their own
ticket on, but the solicitude to keep
other nominations off that troubled
the secretary.
He has tried to accommodate all and
shut out none legally, but this would
not satisfy Dr, H 111, who declared to
more than one that he wanted the
controversy and contentions carried
into the courts. Secretary Kincaid
has been patiently advising the Mid-dle-Roaders
since three weeks how to
get their nominations on the official
ballot. Uut all his suggestions have
been rejected.
no mandamus suit.
Mandamus proceedings against the
secretary of state, to compel him to
file the ralddlcof-the-road People's
party ticket, were not begun Wednes
day, as Judge Hewitt could not be
reached In time. Attorney A. W.
Frescott, In whose hands tho matter
was placed, left this morning for Mc
Minnvllle, !uore Judge Hewitt is
holding court, ne took with him
tho papers for the ludgc to sign. Up
tj a late hour Mr. Prescott had not
returned. The mlddle-of-the-roaders
havo another day In which to serve
mandamus papers, and they express a
determination to press the case, thus
throwing the responsibility for their
failure to secure the filing of their
ticket In the way they demand on the
secretary.
Secretary Klncald said last evening
that he was willing to file the cer
tificate as demanded by tho middle of-the-road
partj committee to prevent
a suit. There still exists, however a
material difference between the de
mands jot tho middle-of-the-roaders
and the secretary's concession. The
secretary will not agree to put the
middle-of the road candidates on the
official ballot as People's Party candi
dates. He demands a qualification o
the party name, claiming the right to
use "People's Party" In connection
with the fusion arrangement,
NO MITCHELL TICKET.
Portland, April, 21. An Injunc
tion suit U prevent the filling of the
nominations of the MItchellltes by
the county clerk and city auditor as
a Republican ticket was begun yester
day In tho state clrcut court, and was
set for hearing Saturdry morning by
Judge Shattuck.
The contentions aro the same as
were alleged in the answer to the
mandamus proceeding, and aro that
tho Mitchell orglnlzatlon is not 1
publican party; and that Its deiegu i
were not recognized by the congic
slonal convention at their recent meet
ing at Astoria. The history of tlie
regular republican organization of
this country is set forth In full, and
tho facta pertalnlug to the bolt of the
MItchellltes from the regular county
convention two years ago.
This proceeding will take tho placo
of themandumussult, JudgeShattuck
having dtcided that the proper way
to present this question is by Injunc
tion, New PnoNES. D. J. Fry, tho Com
