A FEW WORDS PEIssONAL wlTn
WORKING REPUBLICANS.
The publishers Of the JOURNAL
are working hard to build up q
straight, reliable republican paper,
knowing no other interest but that
Of the people, and influenced by II,
faction, element or pecuniary IN.
terest. TO this end we solicit the
aid aud encouragement "f all citl-
zens, and especially Of the loyal,
faithful, working republicans. They
are the ones who carry the party I,
victory and thus secure tO the peo-
pie the advantages and prosperity
always achieved under republican
rule. For the first time since 1880
the republican party Is in power in
all three branches of the govern
nent. 1t Is great trust imposed
by the people, after short trial Of
the reformers, as the democrats
styled themselves under Cleveland.
To restore the prosperity of the
nation to the high tide II had reach
cd under Garfleld's first year, Is the
task Of the republican party In the
nation. That prosperity was COM
pletely destroyed and the country
has seen depression and hard times
since such as 1t has not had for
years before. Cleveland's advoracy
Of low tariff and the free trade
agitation began by the southern
leaders, disturbed American in
dustries and threw many of them
i-s4- l.a..irTnPtoy, until tho people
reyolted and turned the democratic
party, Cleveland, congress, rascils,
bag and baggage, out Of Office.
The republican congress Is now
fairly organized aud will sustain
President Harrison In enacting re-
publican measures; they will restore
the silver coinage, reduce unneces-
sary taxes, restore the wool indus
try, and champion American indus
tries aud American labor against the
werld. This cannot be done ia u
day, or a mouth, or year. 1t viii
take tlme. II x tho duty of all
"h5 believe IN republican principles
to sustain the party In It's great
work, to hold up It's hands and
strengthen It's purpose. One OF the
best ways TO get out big republican
vote Is to circulate good, reliable
republican literature. Placed IN the
hands Of uncertain, doubtful or
waverlng voters, II posts them on
the Issues and settles their mind for
the right.
The place and time set for the
Democratic State Convention Is
Portland, April cath, and la their
call they forecast the tariff plank Of
their platform aud fusion with the
Union Labor party. That will
probably be the general plan OF
their campaign. While the dem
ocratlc managers are always
ready to send another millionaire
like Brlce TO the senate, they are al |
ways paradlng as the friend OF labor
10 catch votes.
A great many active republicans
and young men who cannot leave
their business 10 make speeches eau
do this work and with a little time
help Increase the vote at every point.
II is this quiet work, a voter here
and a voter there, that tells on the
grand result and will give Oregon
the biggest republican victory In
years.
