France is in the shabby business of
trying to steal siamese territory.
France was the aggressor, making a
pretext of the killing of somO Annam-
ties serving under tho French flag on
siamesc territory. For that affair Siam
has offered ample amends, much
greater than France would have OK
pected from power OF her own i'm
portance.
The siamese do not want France to
whack big slice out OF their country,
and France will do it If England docs
not interfere. II England takes hand
Russia will Join with France, and the
long-looked for and nuch-prePared for
European war will DO on.
England has stolen plenty Of Asiatic
territory and other territory herself,
but she does not like to SOC another
European power at the same trick
where it may interfere with her in.
forests. In time England expects to
have Siam herself.

vIoN PnEslpENT STEVENSON

Welcomed to Oregon-Gov. PsnnOyer
Urges Him to Ala Ia Silver Legislation.
PORTLAND, oREGoN, July 25.-Vice
President Stevenson and party arrived
hero to-day, At Salem the:yice president
was welcomed to the state by Coy.
Pennoyer In welcoming the vice
president the governor saidi mo
iairer land upon the whole earth is
visited by sunlight OF heaven than our
own Oregon and yet with all OF our
resources manyot our industries are ut
standstiII and hundreds OF our labor
ing men are without employment and
their families are without bread, This
condition Of affairs Is the legitimate re-
suit OF departure from the financial
policy OF our fathers which was made
two years ago and which still exists.
Believing this, We appeal to you to use
your utmost influence to procure re-
turn to the policy OF the government
which has successfully followed
for eighty years. The simple re-
peal OF the Sherman law, thus
leaving our financial system on gold
basis by the great political party which
elected you to the next highest Office in
the gift OF the people, which gained
control OF the legislative and executive
branches OF the government, and which
pledged itself TO the people in its last
national platform to secure without dis.
terminating against either metal the
coinage and use OF both gold and silver
as tho standard money OF country,
would be most fragrant breach OF the
good faith which all honorable men
would scorn and which would justlysub-
iect the party perpetrating it to the un-
measured contempt OF the nation and
world. Nor would it be any benefit.
The people OF Oregon therefore beg you
to aid in carrying out the written pledge
of your party by the restoration OF the
former policy OF the government which
would result in the return OF prosperity,
the revival OF industries and the em-
ployment OF the vast army OF unem-
ployed."

great exception with the Wheeling

mention Of their "Sweet Homo" and

Justly popular favorites has prompted
the company to put the special name

OF bread you buy have the names
Sweet Home or Electric on the seal,

Taking up the case OF Judge Long, OF
the supreme court OF Michigan, the
Philadelphia Pres makes good point
ON the pension reform" Of this admin,
istration. Judge Longs pension was
suspended because, being able to serve
ON the bench, he is not under such dis
ability as to keep him from earning q
living.
The Press recalls the case OF General
Black, who drew the largest pension
then given, was called by his friends a
"physical wreck" and was able to fill
the office of commissioner Of pensions
during President Cleveland's first term
Now he draws as member Of Congress
5000 year in addition to his pension
Of s., 200,
Whether men OF the Black and Long
stamp, abuudantly able to earn a liveli'
hoop, should accept pensions isanother
matter Moreover. if Longs pension
was unlawfully increased it should be
brought back within the law.
The friends Of the pensioners have
more reason than their enemies to want
the whole pension business regularly
and lawfully conducted.

Tho Republican party has no record
as q party OF obstruction, and will make
none. Country first, party afterwards.
"Ho serves his party best who serves
