Farmer Hunt has always been hunted, and ridiculed and abused by the Portland politicians for his inde pendence. Now that he should turn about and eat his, record,; recant his Populism, and become orthodox once more, he is put forward as one of the redeemed. Hut a man who has the temerity to abandon the farmers' cause of the restoration of silver and whoop up the bloodless tariff and the bloody shirt at a time when those issues are not before the people, is a fit chairman In a campaign of cowardice and stultili cations. A thousand times more do the people admire Senator Dolpli, cold-blooded and aristocratic as he Is., openly buying his goldbug idols, to men who lny down their silver princi ples, when it seems to pay best to do it. How inllnltely much more do the people admire a man like Jonathan Bourne, who resigns his position as secretary of the Republican state cen tral committee, and roll up his sleeves to roll up a majority for Bryan and bimetallism in accordance with his principles, than men who for love of oillce and hope of reward lay down the principles of a life time, and basely desert what they have publicly advocated. THIS PRACHT OF ASHLAND. Max Praclit, of Portlaud, was on his way south Saturday via the Rose burg mail train and among his thirty three fellow passengers was a certain Populist presidential elector of this city. It was a case of "tow and lire" as soon as they realized each other's presence and a redhot "monetary" argument was instantly under way. After u .while it came to a matter of proof as to the prevailing popular sentiment and tho burden of -proof lay upon Mr. Pracht. Ho disposed of tho question by polling the train in com pany with his opponent, with the re sult that thirty-two voted for tho great son of Ohio and two for Bryan. Born of Nebraska and of this ultiful minority the said Populist elector con stituted one-hair. Salem statesman. Tho above is pure ilctlon, reported by this Praclit, of Ashland. No vote was taken. No discussion was had. "Wo never rodo ten miles In our life with Pracht. Pracht is ouo of Mark Ilanmt's uposUto Jews, distributing McKinley literature on a Southern Pacific free pass. He incidentally remarked that ho was a German, when a travelling man remarked that he was no mnro a German than. wore Ickelhcimcr, Gold stein & Co., of the gold bond syndi cate fame. A Jew who is ashamed of Ills race often tries to pass himself oil on Americans as a Gorman. That is what this man Pracht is doing. Friends of Bryan and bimetallism in tho Sunnysldo neighborhood should turn out early Saturday night to hear lUgdon debate with Moores. Tho Salem plan to swamp tho littlo country school houses with a hired gand of town shouters should not bo permitted to succeed ir people In tho country have to go to the school houses before dark. Hon. Solomon Hirsch, of Portland chairman of the Republican State Central committee Is conducting a one-sided campaign. No Invitation has been given Senator Dolph or any of his pronounced adherent to par ticipate in this canvass. The old guard of genuine sound money men Is left out In the cold while recently gold-plated silver shrlekets are doing all the talking for the gold standard. In this respect It Is a hypocritical and lop-sided campaign from the Re publican standpoint. Of course the purpose is to keep the party machin ery solely in the hands of Sol. Hirsch, General Williams and their friends, aud thus force Dolpli and the genuine gold standard advocates out of the party and out of the chances of fed eral pap if there Is any. The Sol. Hirsch crowd don't care whether Ore gon goes for McKinley or not so long as they are in control of the federal olllces and the state organiza tion, and have control of the next state convention. In fact Hirsch and Mitchell prefer Oregon should give a Bryan majority as that would be a vindication of Senator Mitchell's re cord for free silver. Mitchell will have served his party loyally, the Bryan majority will be given as in acJ6rd with his free silver record, Mitchell will be a silvorscnator again, Hirsch will be minister to Turkey again, and the goose will hang high. Tills is undoubtedly the program of the Mitchell Republican wing now in control of the party in this state. That is a hypocritical un-American management, that is repulsive to honest men, whether they be gold standards or bimctallists. Senator Mitchell's interpretation of the Mc Kinley platform at Salem as a free coinage platform has disgusted sound money men still more. brVAN Will win Continued from first page. HANNA'S LAST HOPE. The last chance of winning the election for McKinley lies In a con certed movement of Mark Ilanna to pit the labor vote against the farmers, by telling the former that under free coinage their wages will only buy half as much products. This is a stab at the farmer and an admission that the gold standard robs tho farmer of half the value of his products and labor. The fact is, if free silver will double the price of farm products, it will double the chances of the laborer getting employ ment, because then the farmer can employ labor. Now he cannot. What are farm products, wheat, flour, meats, eggs, butter etc.? They are the products of labor. They rep resent cheap labor when they are cheap, and dear labor when they are dear. Can the laboring man expect high wages and cheap products? Can he expect his wages to keep up, if the farmer cannot employ labor and all laboring men are driven Into the cities to compete with each other and half of them idle? Ncverl Labor suffers more from cheap products than any other clement of society because cheap products meau cheap labor. Tho way to help labor is to restore the prices of farm products to the point where the farmor can employ labor In competition with the cities, and buy store goods freely. That can not be done under tho gold standard and laboring men know it. LABORER VS. FARMER. In this whole campaign the Salum Statesman has sought to pit the la boring man against the farmer. To day It says: "No real friend of tho workingman wants to cut his dollar in two." Greut peppermint! Fifty wheel men on bicycles at Olympla have or ganized for McKinley. Washington people will never adopt tho one-wheel money system, though. Tho Colorado Republicans In state convention declaro for free sllvur and jet sustain the gold standard national lfei:ei. W , :, : That Is, you want tho worklngman's dollar to buy two dollar's worth of tho products of the farmers' labor. Yot, what man has so little souse as to beliovo the laboring man's chances of a living are better with flour at 75 cents a sack thau they would be with flour at $1.50 a sack? If the farmers got twice as much for his products under free coinage of silver, and that is what you say, he "would be lu tho city markets employ ing labor as ho used to be, at good cash wages. Ho would bo the great est competitor for labor. Would that hurt labor? As you look over the map there isn't a southern McKinley state. Should he win lie must win east of the Missouri and north of the Ohio .and the Mason and DIxou line. What states make up this territory and what electoral votea does he need to bring success? The total number of electoral votes in the country is 447. The man who wins the next white house must get at least 221. Now where are they In the region into which McKinley has been driven? A table of the states Involved with the vote and electoral voice shows like this: Maine 0 New Hampshire 4 A'erinont 4 Massachusetts 15 Connecticut G Rhode Island 4 New York 30 New Jersey. , 10 Delaware...'. 3 Pennsylvania 32 Ulilo zs Indiana 15 Illinois 24 Iowa 13 Michigan 14 Wisconsin 12 Minnesota I) Total 230 CANNOT HOLD THEM ALL. In other words, should McKinley carry every state east of the Missouri and north of the Ohio and the Mason aud Dixon Hue he woul have a major ity of six in tne electoral college. The beauty of it all is he can't do it. And Ilanna, with all his money and all his lack of scruple added to his coarse force, can't do it for him. In all of these states the Democrats fuse with the Populists and present an unbroken silver front. The only bolts in these bailiwicks are silver bolts from the Republicans, and "in passing one may say of the Populists' refusals to fuse with the Deuiocratst that the Republicans can gain no aid, no comfort from them. These fuse refusals only occur in states like Ala bama, .where, whatever happens, Republicanism and McKinleyism stand no more oi a snow titan a feather in u furnace. But, to go back to this table of the middle west, the north and the north east: McKinley has six to -the good, should carry them all; but there are several of these persimmons beyond the reach of the nanna syndicate pole. Be they ever so wisely, corrupt they eversocunnlngly, they can't get them. SILVER HOLD ON MINNESOTA.- ' Take Minnesota for example and without it McKinley is swept away and a lump rises and lives in the Ilanna throat every time he thinks of it take Minnesota with its nine votes; what man allows McKinley Minnesota in his count? The Repub licans are two-thirds for silver there. They are leaving the party for the Democracy by squads, platoons and companies. It's been nothing but "bolt McKinley" in Minnesota ever since nanna got his nomination in St. Louis. Ex-Governor Mcrriam and Mike Doran may carry caucusses, and even dominate state conventions, but they arc helpless at the polls. They may lead the Minnesota horse with a corporation halter to the water, but they can't make him drink. Minne sota will bo for Bryan. With a hop and a skip over Iowa, where gold is in a corner lighting for its life and bidding fair to lose it, come to the great state of Illinois. Every Illinois sign is a silver one. Altgeld for governor is to win over John Tanner; even Republicans admit that. If the state is to tro locally Democratic, how will it resist an even jiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii'ii'l ; I m . k-' at r: t "A very smooth article ' (18) stronger national impulse? The state is half way on its way to Bryan now, and by November the world will wit ness a silver stampede in that corn stalk commonwealth. HOOSIER VOTES NEEDED. In Indiana and In Michigan the McKinley dove, when cast loose by Ilanna, returns with weary pinion to to the syndicate ark, llnding no rest for the sole of its foot. They .say about Washington -that the millions Ilanna will pour forth on the Iloosiers will make the former financial opera tions in politics of blocks-of-live-Dudloy look pale and wan. Its to be hoped that Ilanna will break open his barrel on the banks of the Wabash. Tho Hooslers need monoy. And such is their thrift and such their political direction that 'they will take all Ilanna will bring them and then vote for Bryan, just the same. The truth is tho McKinley chances are allrc, as this Is written, In Indiana, in Michigan, In Ohio itself; while from the smudges going up in parts of the empire state it would apj pear as if New York Itself was In direct range of the sparks and liable to burst Into silver burning at any hour. Even tho staid and solemn state of Pennsylvania is acting peculiarly, and from what flotsam comes now ashore from the Keystone community, one might reasonably look for Republican woo In that direction. That is tho situation, and there are the tables and figures by which Mc Kinley must make his conquest of tho white house. One will have to stand on his head before ho sees or reads any Hanna syndicate encouragement in them. Bryan will win. The Salem Bryan club will hold its second rally at the Salem armory Sat urday pight, Judge Whitney, or Albany, and J, W. D'Arcy. of Salem, will speak. jj Don't compare "Battle Ax" 1 H with low grade tobaccos compare j "Battle Ax" with the best on j H the market and you will find you g H get for JO cents almost twice as much "Battle Ax" as you do of g other high grade brands, g POPULAR CONTRIBUTIONS For the Bryan Literature Fund. and Campaign The subscriptions are coming in slowly, but as they are purely volun tary they show that there are still men In this hotbed of Republicanism and bread-and-butter olllcialism who dare contribute to the cause of the people Name.
