UNION IN WASHINGTON. Continued from first Ipagc tlous; that the Land Commission has but little more, than half that used by Its' predecessor during the term pre ceding, and, best of all, that In none of these Institutions Is there likely to be but a very "'"a11 f " deficiency. They are being conducted within the means provided. But it Is in the ag gregatcsa log made that the tigures become most impressive, and slmuld emphasize the lesson Intended by their publication. These figures show and nrove to a demonstration that under Beuubllcan Administrations the nubile cleat, Increased steadily and at an appalling ratio. They show that during the first two years or iuue-hood-frum 1890 to 1892-the Increase of this debt was $315,403,83, or at the rate of 8132 per day, Sundays Included; that from 1892 to 1394 itgrew more rapidly, adding $531,700,81 to Its stat ure, or an average of $728 every 24 hours. Then came the 'ast two years of this enomous and profligate waste and misuse of the people's money, wrung from them In taxes at a time when distress was felt In almost every home in the whole state. During these two years, from 1893 to 1890, there was piled upon this already huge mountain of debt the enormous sum of S7G7,42rj,31, a dally addition for twenty-four consecutive months of over $10.10. Is It any wonder that, the people of this plundered Common -wealth, In the depths of the financial misery then encompassing the whole nation, revolted and turned the "ras cals -out" In united and vehement protest? A DISTKUKNCEOF822I0 A DAY In favor or the Fusion administration l-i an eye-opener to any man, whoso only connection with politics Is to wile and pay taxes. The Fuslonlsls, those who united In Wahlilriuton to stop this waste, to rescue the state from the misrule, extravngunrc and profligacy, which were nut alone sorely oppressing the people, but wrecking tlie credit of the Commonwealth by a debt so rapidly Increasing and an enormous Interest charge, were successful In the elec tions or 1890, and their selected of ficers assumed administration of puu licafTalrs at the beginning of 1897. The "anarchists," the "cranks" the silver lunatics" were In power. From eyery lair therein Shylock lurked, weaving his webs for further public plunder, came a. wall of sore dismay, Tho cornmunwcalth was In the hands of public enemies, the credit of the state was therefore Im perilled and about to be destroyed. Such were the lau cntatlons and prophecle with which the Republi can press and the vtry air were laden. Bow, mark the result. The Fusion administration on April SO, 1898, had been In power just fourteen months. During thut period tho public debt has been decreased $570,003.77. The mountain has been lowered at the rate of almoH $1190 per diem. To put the cast still more strongly, yet truthfully, the Fusion Administra tion Is savlug the State of Washington the difference between a debt being Incurred of $1050 dally and a debt be ing paid of $1190 daPy, u dally llfier ence In Its favor of $2210 as compared with II Republican predecessor, If there U merit in economy and de merit lu extravagance, If there Is merit lu thrift uud demerit In publlo woduacy. if. lu short.

Adam is a re formed printer as well as a straw berry blonde. He's a dapper little fellow; as sleek as a peeled onion and apparently only a few years older than Baby McCourt. People who gave up good money to ro to the opera bouse Saturjay nigh made a mistake, they could, liave had just as much fun at the armory; but many of them didn't find It out until It was too late. The entertainment was prlmiriiy intended, to be a Republican r illy, but Adam dldnte it that way, an I at no time did he let suiill tuin.: like political points or accuracy of statement, spoil a good Joke. When It was tint arraoged to brl g Adam to Salens the discovery wa made that it would cost money, be cause good things like Ada 11 tome high. The different Republican commit tees were appealed to, but they de clined to dig up Tie money, Chair man Bob thought, could be used inote advantagously in paying off some ot the employes back wages, for compo sltlon on the "Organ," a committee of Zealous party workers headed by Hon. Claud Gatch started out, a.la Salvation Army, and commenced to solict funds for "expenses." They took co'd victuals, old clothes, any old thing, and after a while procured enough to justify them In wiring Adam to come on. Adam came, and was escorted from tho Willamette hotel to the Armory by the II. A. C. band which played Its best tunes, which had been kept bottled up a week more for the occasion, and a hundred citizens, more or less. At the Armory several Chinese fire crackers were exploded, more music ground out and lion. Claud Gatch, lined out in Grannis Style, what he called a Republican hymn, America, which the entire audience, which at first consisted of nearly 600 people, joined In slnglug. Adam, who sometimes prefixes a "J"' to his name for the sake of euphony and ballast, admitted when Introduced that he had hallucinations and that at lucid Intervals he had been a Dem. ocrat. With this brief prologue, touching on politics he began to tell Jokes. He told them well, and be continued to tell them for two hours. During this time lots of the Republi cans left the hall; they appreciated the humorous side of the situation but they were looking for politics. Mayor Richardson and Judge Terrell who were among tho reformers on the stage, put there no doubt to Inspire the confidence of the tax-payers in the proceedings, remained through it all. Adam told the be3t girl Joke, the motherlnlaw joke, the billy goat Joke, and most all the other time honored and battle scarred Jokes the audience had ever heard; but he made a bad break when he jumped on the A. P.A., because Mr. Geer was away out on tho rim, In the cow counties and could not defend himself. Adam spoke of the war, and had a little scheme, Adam did, ot placing all the coons In the front ranks. lie said It would solve the race problem In the south, He made many excuses for Spain and the Spaniards and vindicated the dllitary war policy of Ihe gold hugs. Gold he said, was the poor man's money, hut, the corporatloi.s owned all the silver mines, the railroads, the steamboats, tlie docks, the smeltcifi nnd In fact everything but the gold mines ("yes and tho government too," said a voice in the crowd.) Adamcanio to preach tho gospel of peace. There was iuo iuucii iroiiDie he thought between the classes. The millionaires were very unhappy, therefore they ought to be pitied, but tho poor people were all happy Money was a bad thing to glvo to most people, therefore he was op posed to them haying It. Poverty was best not only for the Individual but for the nation at largo. .Great people wasn't happy after all, be cause they were all dead. Cleopatra died a suicide; Napa) lun expired on St Helena's Isle; Garfiefd was shot, and even Adam himself wasn't feel ing very well. Ho said It was a groat mistake to send Mark Hanna to the senate, although Mats was tho farmers candidate, u kind ir a granger anyway. Adam became ser ious for a little while, forgot that he had left the Democratic party and begun to advocate tliu es tablishment of a postal saying bank told a few more Jokes nnd closed with as eloquent peroration as any school boy need desire for a declamation. It was real pretty. Four gentlemen, who styled themselves tho MoKinley quartette sang two or three campaign tongs.

The Republicans opened the argu ment and occupied one hour's time reiterating and emphasizing their "nrmcr declarations with little modi fications.

"We are told that this Is a fusion or Union as they do not like to be called fuslon 1 1st. But It is no Union or fusion cither, simply three parties trotting along together." At the close of the speaking Mr. Flagg stated that Rev. Gwln was present and demanded that the gen tleman come forward and tell what he 'knew about the Statesman's charges against H. L. Barkley, Mr. G win came forward and substantiated much of the charges which created a degree of excitement Id the audience. It looked as though the whole mat ter had been pre-arranged In a very adroit manner. A stranger handed C. J. Slmeral, Union candidate for county treasurer a folded note with the request tha it be handed to Chairman Hendricks. This note conveyed to the chairman Informatlsn of the presence of Mr. Gwln. which made It appear as though the Union candidates were bringing Gwln out. The whole thing appears at the present time to be a deep laid scheme to black-mall Mr. Barkley In his absence. The Union Chairman Mr. Rigdon declared at the next meeting (at Monitor) that a searching investigation of the whole matter should be made and Mr. Barkley given an opportunity to his defense and The Journal asks all honorable men to withhold judgment until a conclusion Is reached. The meeting at Monitor was well attended and a good impres sion for reform made upon the audience.

Angel, Friday evening the candidates had the biggest audience since starting out, Those thrifty German Americans turned out with a large-hearted enthusiasm thatshowed their patriotism for the welfare of their country. Mr. Flagg vas the ouly speaker for the Republicans, and muny of the for mer subscribers of his Salem Demo crat of yore arc still wondering whether he was there us an object lesson or a living example of reincar nation by the gold cure. lie talked and talked, but there was uothlng said until Mr. Bents too the stand for the Union cause. Mr. Bents felt at home among his German frleuds and spoke his best, nc here exploded the He of Chairman Hendricks and Mr. Flagg that no stute warrants have been Issued as a result of the supremo court decision com pelling Secretary Klncald to Issuo warrant?. He gave the olllclal figures showing that over$250,000 of warrants have been Issued by order of the court and stamped "nut paid for want of funds." This brought the licusc down, and it Is thought that Mr, Flugg actually blushed Tho speaker also showed that about a million dol lars lies Idly In the slate treasury (or some where) and that already the stale Is held for over 10,000 Interest on warrants stamped "not paid for want of funds." The laigo audience went wild over this cold knock-out. and neither Mr. Hendricks nor Flagg haye alnco attempted to talk about state warrants or the Infamous court decis ion thai Is making a picnic for war rant brokers, Mr. Kagan on tuis occasion made tho finest oratorical effort of the campaign, nnd spoke 'with eloquence and feeling on the patrlotibtu of the American people. Mr. Euan's temarks were received with great applause,and and he was the recipient of hearty congratulations f rom all present. Mt. Angel Is noted for Its good music as well as good people, and the brass band of that place on this occa sion outdid Itself. The music was superb and fitting for the event,whlch proved one of the most successful of the week. The meeting at Gervais was not well attended. The Republicans made a serious mistake by not hold ing young McCourt until the last, for It appeared that nearly all the Republicans In the house bad come to hear the young orator. McCourt was called down In order to leave two minutes for McCullock. But the chairman soon discovered his mis take in not giving all the time to the boy orator. McCullock arose and tried his best to get tne ears of those before him, but his efforts were in vain not six persons beside caidl dates were present when McCu' ck concluded his effort. At Woodburn the large hall was reasonably well filled with the people of the thrifty little town and sur rounding country. The Republicans lead off with Rey. Bro. Cuiiraings, who seemed to be enthused by the size of the audience. He made no reference to the Republican platform whutever. He took up Mr. McCourt's Idea that the Union is Imperfect, that three parties are tiolllng along to gether tr;lng to ride on one platform. He talked a while upon sixteen to one and tried to make his audience t Ink that he knew what It meant, n le clared that the "fusionist" bel ved in unlimited irredeemable paper cur rency issued direct to tho people so every one could have his pockets full. Then on top of the statement he declared their percapita circulation did not effect business, "makes no difference to you or me" whether It Is two dollars and fifty cents or twenty five dollars. Ho also said the "fusion ists" would have the people think that they are opposed to class legis lation but that their plan Is the most gigantic scheme of class legislation oyer proposed. He talked about com mercial value, about the mints,: the silver mine owners, the amount of money In tho U. S. treasury, govern ment by Injunction, Drolits or scigno- rage etc. etc. He declared that sil ver is being coined at the present time adding largely to the .circulation and a great many other false a absurd statements rolled from h mouth like a pile of pumpkins turn bllngdown a cellar. When the gentleman had wearied himself with what he thought was an exhaustion of his subject, he gave up tho floor. Mr. Hendricks then introduced the other candidates In turn who made nice little speeches each in his own behalf. Tho Union candidates were then Introduced and as usual made brief speeches until the venerable G. W. Dlmlck candidate fur state secator was called. Mr. Dlmlck had but few minutes at his disposal, but those few minutes were sufficient to show the wild and rattling statements of bro ther Cummings, who never seem to get down to solid facts on any pro position Wt If Brother Cnmmlngs has never read Robert Burns, It Is suggested that he carefully examine the follow ing stanza: "Oh wad some llowerthe giftle gle us To se oursels as Ithers seelus: Twould frae many a blunder free us, duct brslness thus In an aliped 'Sound Money" organization ? It has been charged by a Republi can paper at Salem that Mr. Hen drlcks received the sum or $3C00 from the national committee and ha col lected 12000 more by assessing oillciuls, contractors, employes and candidates Now discount this one hair and It would leave lnui SioOO to operate with and surely he could pay up his old campaign bills before contracting new oner. This Is a question of com mon business honesty and not of poll tics at all. The Integrity of the "Sound Money" party is btst determ ined by the honesty and soundness of Its campaign management. If a Sllwi man didn't pay his bill atMr.P.i-iir ton's or Mr. nughes'storo. or his n tr at Mr. McCornack's bank.be would be a repudlator. Yet the?e same gentle men act In an advisory capacity with Mr. Hendricks as campaign managers and do not pay up. Are these men honest? If men will not conduct a political campaign honestly as a business proposition, can the people get common honesty out of them in charge of public af fairs? nave the finances of the city of Salem and of Marion county been honestly administrated? Are not our city and county and school dis trict hopelessly In debt? Are not all taxes for city, county, school district and even the state fleeced by the warrant buyer? Is not every dollar of public taxes milked of Interest be fore It Is applied to pay public bills? Did not a Republican supreme court reverse Itself In order to compel Sec retary of State Klncald to Issue In terest bearing warrants which the treasurer is forbidden to pay? This was done even against the dissent of Justice Bean, and the pecpleare pay ing Interest on their taxes for 1897 lying Idle (or supposed to be,) in the state treasury. Thousands of Republicans deplore these things and would have It other wise, and mauy of them are going to vote with the Reform party not be cause they endorse free silver, or tho referendum, but because they believe In common honesty in public affairs. These are matters thut are far moro Important in our homo affairs than national pc lilies. It is very impoit ant that our city, county, school dis trict und state shall get on a cash basis, shall stop runuiug deeper In debt. Will the politicians now con trolling the Republican party giye us common honesty ? In Washington stale the Republi can party was running the state in debt 32000 a day. The Union of Re form forces whipped it at the polls, and have been paying off debts for t ivo years at tlie rate of $1000 a day. nlohls the Souud Money party? 1 hicli Is the party of repudiation and d.-rder, which is the party that pays Its honest bills In honest dollars?
