THAT HEN AND EGGS STORY.

Colonel O'Ferrall has had occasion
several times in his campaign work to
lay out the Populist dogmas by the state
ment "That the only ground the Popu-
lists could stand on was free silver, and
take this from them you would wipe
them out of existence The able can

represented the Populist party in his
discussion at Salem yesterday.

as mentioned in another column. did
ouch upon the free silver question,
Ut his advocacy of it was SO faint
that his listeners came away with
the doubt on their minds as to whether
he really believed in what he was trying
to prove.
But Mr.. Baker was at his best as a
humorist. He attempted to show how

the populists were like the old hen that

the Populists were like the old hen that
the little boy in Kansas once set upon
some eggs. The boy who was a pa
triotic youth wanted to hatch out a
chick representative of every State in
the Union, so forty-four eggs were
placed in the nest and then
the boy called out his mother to
see how nicely the hen was cover
ing those eggs. Now Mr.. Baker re-
presented that the hen covered all those
eggs; that's one part Of the joke; then
he likened some Of tho eggs to Republi-
hen was trying to hatch out as full
fiedged Third party men; that's his
second bit of humor; and then he ad-
mitted that all the eggs were not
matched, and that many remained Re-
publican or Democratic in spite of the
efforts of the Populist old hen; that was
his joke number three.
It will doubtle be the general opin-
ion that Mr.. Bakers jokes, il they are
like the hen and eggs one, will turn
about on him and make themselves par
ticularly pertinent to the other side OF
the question. 1t would have been just
as logical to remark that the Popu-
lists are trying to cover the whole coun.
try with about as little success as was
the hen covering those forty four eggs.
1t would hardly be more correct to sug.
gest that Populists are Matched out of
good Democratic eggs, than it would to
say that chicks will be Matched out of
duck eggs just because al old hen sets

1t might also te proper to remark
that the Populist party men have about
as much reason in their heads as an
old setting hen bent upon setting and
upon nothing else. They are bent upon
free silver with about as much persist
ency as is usually manifested by the
barnyard fowl.

ment Of that class of people by our
Government. Opinions will differ as to
whether the law as It now stands is in
accordance with the letter of the treaty
between the United States and China,

The section has an addition in the
