honest motives, but the fact remains
that the people of this stato are and
will be overwhelmingly opposed to a

Mr. Lyman announces that ho is an

is Idelb bn the Question of State
Superintendent.
Eon'ok Jeuknal: The Republi
cans and Unionists are now In
too heat of their campaign and arc
botl vejrynat urajjy and properly, ad
vising the people to yote for the man
who will promulgate and upport tho
right kind of principle; and In voting
for candidates for some offices it would
perhaps, bo wiser to consider first the
man's political belief and his ability
to stand by and support that belief
and tnuko ills everyday life a second
ary matter. For instance, being a
Republican myself I could not vote,
nor ask any one elso to vote for any
free sliver hian of ahy school of poll
tied to fill the Oflices 6r any represen
tative! or tho people, such a state or
United States representatives and
senators or for president of
the . United States. But wo
have a very important olllco to 1111
Just nmv, that can' not, rrom any
p-iintor view be considered a political
one and whloli carries with it no
political influence It Is necessary
that, our Supt, of Public Instruction
be a mart of sterling honesty, with
plenty of courage to stand by his con
victions; that he should have the ncc
esstry educational"quallQcatlons, to
gether with a thorough knowledge, of
fie Intrinsic value of a book and ol
a man, rather than that, he belong
to any. particular school of politics.
I nin sorry to have to say, that In
all the, qualifications that go to make
u,t the man for. tho office, .Mr. Lyman,
tho candidate on tho fusion ticket,
Is far superior to Mr. Ackcrman, the
candidate on our ticket. As to Mr.
Ackerman the first and most Impor
tant reason why he should not be
elected Is becauso he is, beyond all
question a tool of tho American Book
company,, a combination whose man
ipulations havo wrought more mis
chief to tho educational Interests of
Oregon than the, combined Influence
of all other agencies.
By .the conditions of a contract en
tered Into between the American
Bopk company and our state board of
education,. Oregon children arc forced
to pay an average per cent Increaso
On tie A. 11. Co'ri. own uatuloguo
prices of IJjll; and an average per
cint increase oyer prices paid to this

many of them arc not properly graded,
are even Incorrect and entirely unfit
to put into the hands of a child and a
great annoyance to teachers; whereas
every text book sliould be a help to
the teacher. Notably Fish's Arith
metics as well as some of tho other
text bpoks now In use are not fit for a
school room.
Ono very strong proof that Mr.
Ackcrman will do the bidding of this
company, lies in thofact that Richard
Williams of Portland, placed him In
nomination and that he and his
brother , Emmctt Williams, and
also R. L. Edwards arc using
all their energy and influence to get
him elected; und that both Richard
and Emmctt Williams and Edwards
are prominent agents of the American
Book Co.
Through political custom and
"gratitude" Mr. Ackerman will bo
forced to continue tho present out
rageous contract with "Dick" Wil
liams' Book Co.
Again Mr, Ackcrman proved him
self a designing and selfish politician,
rather than a gentleman, when ho in
sulted Supt. Irwin at his own (Mult
nomah county) teachers Institute, by
bringing up what ho considered Mr.
Irwins short comiugs in ofllce, at that
time and place because, just then Mr.
Irwin seemed to bo the man most
likely to be nominated by tc Repub
licans to succeed hlmsolf, and Mr.
Ackerman wanted tho nomination.
Such a man will stand by his own
Interests, not by those of the people.
Of Mr Lyman wo can not say what
Is true of spiiio of the other candi
dates on tho Union ticket, I. e. that
he Is an olTIco seeker, disappointed or
otherwise. The only public ofllce ho
has, sought him. In a Republican
county ho has Eoycral times been
elected county superintedent of
schools, on tho Populist ticket, with
a flattering majority each time.
He I? a thorough gentlemen, genial

oftlao utmost' Importance to tho -peo'-'
pjpof Oregon, is the faot'tWt 'ifo'Ja
The following Is the platform adopted
by .the republican party of Oregon In
ptaM convention assembled, nt Astoria,
Thmiay, April 14, 1&98:
"""" the republican voters of the
prate of Oregon, in convention assem
bled, congratulate the people of the
stato ns we'll as of tlis whole nation on
the unmistakable fact that the dark
cloud of adversity, which has hung like
a pall over our fair land, has been dis
sipated. We rccognlzp that (he return
of prosperity is due to the restoration
of the republican party to power.
"We are In favor of the maintenance
of the present gold standard; Wfl ara
unqualifiedly opposed to thp free coin
age of slvpr and to all other schemes
looking to the debasement of the cur
rency and the repudiation of debt, We
believe that the best mpnoy In the
world is none too good to be assured
by the government to the laborer as
the fruit of his toll and to the farmer
as tho price of his crop. We condemn
the continued agitation of free silver
as calculated to jeopardise the prosper
ity of the country and to shake the
confidence of the people In the rnaln
tffaricp of a wise financial polioyt'wo
particularly condemn as unpatriotic,
tho efforts of the free silver agltatqrs
to array class against class and sec
tion against section; we declare that
tho Interests of all classes and of all
sections of our country alike demand
a sound .and stable financial system.
"While wo dcplorp thp fmrnlnanpe ot
war, we recognize that the country Is
on the eve of a war, undertaken for
the vindication ot the national honor
and the performance of a werk dictated
by every instinct of humanity; we de
clare that the administration 13 en
titled In this conflict to the confidence
and support of (he entire people.
"YP are firmly attached to the prin
ciples of the federal constitution; we
recognize that representative govern
ment Is ono of these principles, and we
are opposed to any change In law or
constitution which will abrogate this
time-honored principle.
"We are In favor of retrenchment
and reform In state and county mat
ters, "Wo aemand strict economy In pub
llo affairs, and the abolition of all
needless oflices and commissions.
"The salmon Ashing Industry, so
fruitful a source of revenue to the
state, should be fostered, and to that
ond we favor state aid In the artlflolal
propagation of salmon, and their dis
tribution In the wnters of the state.
"Wo reaffirm our allegiance to the
principles of the republican party of
the United States, as enunciated by
the republican convention In SL Louis
In IS33,
"We denounce the fusion party of
Oregon as an aggregation of spoils
men, who are ready to subordinate
principles to offices. Each of the par
ties to this compact Is willing to stul
tify ll3elf and form alliances with ele
ments which It has heretofore de
nounced as dangerous and unfit to 'be
Intrusted with power; we declare that
good government cannot come from
such an alllancp."

Populists went into power ut no time
have any county warrants been below

went In debt under Republican

cancelling the indebtedness to the

how the people or Washington had
roso in their might and turned tho
rascals out.
He compared the assessments of
Washington and Oregoq on the same
classes of property, which showed
that Oregon Republican ofllce holders
were playing In the hands of corpora

arraignment of Republican rascality

Although the rain was pouring

music by the H. A. C. band, Commit
teeman Johq Bayne roferrcd to tho
libelous charges made by the States

stated that the committee had given
