SEVERING PARTY TIES.

Several Senator'S and representa-
tives in Congress have severed their
connection with the administration.
Pugh of Alabama, Bland Of Missouri
and Bryan of Nebraska have publicly
declared their independence and
proclaimed that if the Democratic
party does not remonetize silver they
are for the party that will. White
and Geary of California have also
announced that they have no favor
to ask of the administration. There
are other prominent Democrats, such
as Vest of MISSOURI, Morgan Of
Alabama and Daniel of Virginia,
who have given the administration to
understand that they will not follow
it into the eoldbug camp.
Among the Republicans who have
broken the shackles of party are
Teller and Wolcott of Colorado and
Bowers Of California. Wolcott, in
behalf of the constituents, has de
clared against the Mckinley bill and
refuses TO follow the leadership of
OHeTlndu anu I1Odr. DCWerS, VINO
represents district in which P)pu-
list ideas are popular, il no longer
counted as Republican, as he de-
clares that he will not sustain party
that is almost unanimous in its OPP
position to free coinage.
These are only few of the prom
inent men i'll Congress who have
severed the ties which bound them
to the old parties and signifed their
intention to act independent of the
Wall street combination.
In Virginia, in which an election
Is to be held for State officers and
legislature, which will elect two
United States Senators the principal
issue Of the campaign is the silver
question. The old parties are vir-
tually disrupted, though one of the
candidates for Governor goes before
the people on platform which en-
dorses the administration. Men who
have heretofore been prominent in
Democratic councils in the State are
advocating the election of the free
coinage ticket. which stands an even
chance of being successful.

"A MIGHTY LIVE PAPER.'

Brick Pomeroy' in Advance Thought
The Caucasian, at Goldsboro, n.
c., is edited by a mighty live man,
whose name is Marion Butler. He
is help to the people and his paper
should have large circulation, that
what he so pointedly says, may have
much and speedy influence. He be-
lieves, that America is quite old
enough and big enough, to hold her
own against the world, and to have
an American system of money that
will be legal-tender in this coun-
try, no matter what it is i'll any 9TH

of the people are of more account
than the interests Of the ones who in
other countries live only to rob the

Oresen's Fearless Democratic Governor
Defines His Position.


Defines His Position.
Mr.. A. A. Stanley of Echo, Oregon,
wrote Governor Pennoyer to inquire
if he could be recalled classed as
PopuliSt, or was he still a Democrat
pretending to advocate Populist
principles, like so many other good
men and papers. The following is
the governors reply;
STATE OF OREGON, EXECUTIVE
DEPARTMENT, SALEM, Oct. 26, 1898.
A. B. Stanley, Echo, Ore: Dear
Sir-In answer to your letter of the
23d inst, | will say that you may
count upon my being in the front of
the fight next June for the Populist
cause. You say that you cast your
first ballot for me after being d Re
publican twenty years. Do you know
why you did it? 1t was because of
my advocacy of Populist doctrine.
Seven years ago, in my first canvass,
| favored free coinage, the abolition
of the national banking system and
an income tax-all good Populist
doctrines. Three years ago, in a
magazine article, | favored loans by
the government direct to the people,
instead of to national banks alone, and
the establishment of government
savings banks, and in all my mess
ages to the Legislature | have favored
control Of corporations by a maxi
mum rate tax, as we'll as change in
the assessment laws of the state by
which the rich could no longer evade
taxation. Of course | am a Popu-
list; and as nine-tenths of the peo-
pie of Oregon favor the same doc
trlnes, they are Populists, and it is
therefore quite reasonable to expect
d sweeping Populist victory in Ore
gon, if we only keep in the middle of
the road. Very respectfully,
SYLVESTER PENNOYER.

New York Sun. |

"Tested by the first principles of
political fectitude and party honor,
the protectionist tariff proposed to
congress by Mr.. Wilson and the
Democratic majority of the commit
tee on ways and means is fraud, an
lnfan1y and an insult. Mr.. Wilson
speaks of the surprising magnitude,
difficulty and delicacy of the duty
assigned to his committee. If there
had been a single copy of the Demo
cratic platform in the committee
room, everything might have been as
smooth as oil. but then there would
have been no free list, nor would the

H-JONATHAN AND HIS CRITICS.

Some S.tlatagy Advice Why Jonathan
Loves Not John Fan.
\ few days before leaving America !
had a pleasant talk with Mr. Whrelaw
Reid, of The Now York Tribune.
''Do not fall into the great error of
fancying that you have seen America in
six months" he said
"But | do not fancy anything of the
kind, " | replied. "When man Of average
intelligence returns home after having
made a voyage to a foreign land, he can
not help having formed a certain number
OF impressions, and he has the right to
communicate them. They arc but i'm
pressions, and, if there is an error com
mitted, it is by the critic or the reader.
when either Of these looks for a perfect
picture of the manners G~d institutions
Of the people the author has visited, in
stead nf simple Impressions Certainly,
if there is d country in the world that it
would be impossible to Judge in six
months it is America.
''In six months you cannot know
America, YOU can merely get a glimpse
of it; but, by the end of a week, YOU
must have been struck with various
things, and have taken note of them. A
serious study and an impression are two
different things. To form a really exact
idea of America one would need to live
twenty years in the country, nay, to be
an American. | say all this to you to
warn you that if, on my return to Europe,

America, it viii be q book Of impressions.
md if you should persist in seeing in it
anything but impressions YOU will be to
blame. But il this matter trust to the
Intelligence of Americans. shall be in
good hands"
Upon this the editor of The Tribune
responded, You are right"
1t must be allowed that Jonathan has
good reason to mistrust his critics. Most
books on America have been written by
Englishmen. Now the English are, of
all people, those who can the least easily
get rid OF their prejudices in speaking of
America. They are obliged to admit
that the Americans have made their way
prett- Wei, but John Bull has always a
rambling remembrance of the day that
the americans sent him about his bust
ness, and his look seems to say to Jona-
than: ~ cs, yes, you have not done at
all badly-for you, but think what the
country would have been if it had re-
manned in my hands"
He looks at everything he sees with a
patrOniZing air. with the arrogant calm
that makes him SO unbearable when he
travels abroad He goes over with the
firm intention of admiring nothing Amer
lean
He occasionally presents himself at
Jonathans dinner parties in tweed
suit. And Jonathan. one Of whose little
weaknesses is love of appreciation, has
a cordial antipathy TO the magnificent
Briton. The Englishnan, on his side,
| has no antipathy whatever to the Ameri-
cans For that matter. the Englishman
has no antipathy for any one. He de-
| spises, but he does not hate, u fact which

TWO LIVES LOST.
Sailors Blown From Schooner Off
Cape BlanCO.

Two sailors lost their lives during gale
which caught the schooner Lena Sweasey
on November 90 off Cape Bianco.
The schooner arrived in this port last
night. She left Grays Harbor, Wash,
with a load of lumber eight days before
and was not far out when a northerly gale
came upon her with terrible fury. Scarcely
was there time to make ready for blow
when it sprung up suddenly. The crew
were busy shortening sail and preparing
the schooner for a storm. Two men we're
on the jlbbOom furling the mainsall when
a fierce jerk of the dig beam shook them
from their positions. They fell into the
ocean, and though comrades saw the whole
occurrence it was impossible TO give aiu
soon enough 10 be OF any benefit.
Several pieces Uf lumber were thrown
from the deck overheard as life-buoys.
One poor fellow reached plank and held
