this crime IS overlooked, silver
is forgotten, aud the leading
feature of the platform is a
demand for the initiative and rsferen-
dunn in legislation vagary which
nobody cares about, and which would
be harmless in proportion to its failure
to carry out the purposes of those who
recommend it.
Partial reparation for this neglect
OF silver is, however, made by the con-
vetion's demand for the repeal of the
specific contract law This law was
enacted ill 1864, when the people of
Oregon were honest enoug b to fro"n
upon any disposition to pay debts in
money inferior in value to that in use
when the debt WAS contracted. But
this old-fashioned honesty is now ont
of date, at least with makers of this
platform. The idea IS that the specific
! contract law makes it impossible for
the man who contracts to pay debt
in good money to pay it in cheap stuff;
SO there must be no law to hold him TO
his contract. This is quite like the
method of that great English populist
and reformer of the olden time who
thought it "a lamentabe thing that the
skin of All innocent lamb should be
made parchment, and that parchment,
beng scri5bled DER and sealed, should
undo man." Perhaps the reason
why the convention did not pronounce
for silver Was the thought that even
silver was too valuable IL thing to pay
lebs with.
The slngle-tax people got no recog-
milton. This seems to have been due
to the fact that the convention was
controlled by country lanaholders, who
are unwilling, even for the sake oi
great reform, to be taxed out of the
ownership of their lands 1t is one
thing to get rid of the specific contract
law, so you may beat the money lender
or the merchant out of the money you
agreed to pay him, but quite differ
-nt thing when it is proposed that al
taxes shall 60 upon land.
/ Everyone expects to see from al
parties this year a demand for econo-
my in public affairs. 1t will be
enforced through necessity, with O,
without a demand from any party
The populist party, therefore, will moi
find itself the exclusive proprietor o
this idea. which is the only thing in it.
platform worth considering at all
We are disappointed in the platform
therefore, because we expected som'
great rhetoric in denunciation of th'
methods of the world, lurid fulmina-
tions against the plutocrats, Savage
outbursts upon the tyranny of gold, ane
) woeful pictures of the suffering ane
) miseres of the people-the whole red
. dened with terrible threats of ven
geance, and then rainbowed with glo-
rious promises of redress. We mus
confess our disappointment at finding
the country i'll no worse condition
than indicated in this platform, or ou
. disgust with the platform itself as
. most lame and impotent conclusion

It is an agony of agonies.

A torture of tortures.
1t is an itching and burning Of the

1t is thousands of pin-headed ves-

No part of the human skin is
exempt.
1t tortures, disfigures and hun,il-

combined.
Tender babies are among its most
