Next Tuesday will be the Presiden
tial election. Before another issue OF
the INDEPENDENT we will all he called
upon as citizens Of this great Repu blic
to express, by our ballots, our choice CT
candidates for that important Office. 1t
is of more concern to. us Individually
and collectively how we exercise that
choice, than at any preceding Presidea-
tial election.
Gpon the suffrage of the voters, de
de- 5ends the prosperity i'll a measure
of fifty millions Of our citizens This is
of more Importance to us all than any
previous election, because the issues and
principles involved are more clearly de-
fned than ever before. We are called
upon to say whether moneyed oil
garchy backed by corporate and concen-
trated wealth shall own and control this
Government or whether the people
gave rights which these wealthy arlsto-
diaCs are bound to respect. The issue
Letween capital and labor is well de-
fined in this campaign. We arc called
upon to say whether the Dorscys, the
Bradys, Boss 8hopiards, Dudleys,
Steven Elkins, and like mob with their
credit Mobiliers, WHISKY steals, star
route jobs and like frauds shall
longer speculate on the peoples subsist-
ence and.revel in their ill-gotien gains,
while we all languish and suffer by the
hard times which the present policy Of
the Republican party entails upon the
country.

IT cost the Republican party

IT cost the Republican party at least
$500 for every majority vote they re
corded in the Ohio election It is q
dearly bought victory and shows
clearly the drift of public opinion in
the United States. The country is
evidently for Cleveland and Fl endricis
so solldly as to be beyond the reach of
corrupting gold Blaine's magnetism,
which was SO strong as to draw negro
voters to Ohio. from K entucky and
Virginia, leaves that State 5000 nearer
the hands of the Democrats than it was
at the October election in 1880. Let
the Republicans crow.

ROBINSON, the Republican candidate
for Secretary of State in Ohio, has been
elected by a plurality of ll,32l, but
lacked 1900 votes Of securing ma
iority. This out of total vote of
10000 writes Ohio as a very doubt
ful State for the Presidential election.
In West Virginia, where Blame also
made speeches, the Democratic majori-
tv increased 1000 over the majority
for supreme judge in 1888, and over
5000 above that given for Hancock in
1880.

THE following presents the ludi-
crons side of the campaign, and illus
trates how good joke will escape the
eagle eye of a newspaper man: James
.. Warren, editor of the Buffalo Com
mercial, who is making vigorous
campaign in behalf of Blaine for the
Presidency, received poem, which
upon its face was full of praise fer the
Republican candidate, and WAS accepted
and printed in that journal Special
attention was also called by the eoitor
to the beautiful tribute. Upon a care
ful reading Ct the same after it was in
print, it was discovered that it was
nothing else than an acrostic, which
those who read might understand that it
was their bounden duty to "vote for
Cleveland" The editors consterna-
tion and Indignation upon the unearth-
ing the fraud may be better imas-
ined than described.

''stiek to the Party"

'Stlck TO the party. 1es, they
cry, stick to the party )" let them rob
you of land and products; let them
make you beggars and slaves; let this
whole, broad, grand, fertile and glori-
Gus Northwest be delivered over in fee
simple, with all the products and all the
inhabitants thereof, to q railroad com
pany: Toll and. sweat, strive and
save, suffer and starve, TO produce three
bushels of grain that two MAY be given
for freight charges to the railroad.
But for Gods sake never desert the
party The party. Wha, party
The railroad party. The land grant
party. The party that has granted
270,000, 900 Of your land and mine to
corporations, and allowed them-nay
encouraged them, to charge yon AMI |
four prices for every piece OF service
they perform. The party that said in

when that very same day its represen-
tatives in Congress railroads
representatives aud net the peoples
were to a man opposing forfeiture and
assisting by every device in their
power in rohbing the people of their
sacred heritage.
The railroads have two representa-
tives who make their home in Oregon
One Of $hem has been here-the other
is coming. 1t is wonder that they
dare show their faces among the

It is the same battle in the Nation
ro-day as in Washington Territory.
We don't care to say a word IN praise
81 the Democratic party as such or in
conde hInation Of the RepubIican party
as such, in this article. We are talk
ing about the peoples parsy, if you
please the farmers party, and the rail
road party Bat the Democratic pa,t y
did declare for forfeiture in Congress,
and the Republican Senate killed every
forfeiture bill. The Democratic party
declared for forfeiture in Washington
Territory, and tln/ Republican, party
declared for the railroad Oregon s
true representative, James Fl. Slater,
Democrat, did introduce, work for,
and vote for forf ,itnre bills while

posed tnol. Don't blame us for facts.
They are matters Of record, and you
cannot escape from them. Will you
ignore .hem, and even though you are
Republicans, vote for railroad party
The higher the office to be filled, and
the broader the contest, the greater
will be your influence, on emo side OF
| the ether. Mr.. Blaine is fit candidate
Of the railroad party. Not single
vote Of his can bo found on record in
favor of the people, Every time it has
been on the side of the railroads. Not
once, in all his twenty-five years OF
brilliant political pyrotechnic display,
has this candidate ever lifted his voice
in defense of the peoples rights against
the encroachments of corporate power

chants OF this city. The assignment was
supposed TO have been caused by shrink
age In values, but at n meeting OF the Gre

had been engaged in swinding banks By
hypoihecating warehouse receipts when the
goods were not in the house. The swim
ding has been going on two years, till the
stealage amounts TO about $4,000. The
liabilities OF the firm are Sl6l 900; assets,
