eopulist aratesx.

Mr.. Joseph Waldrop, the Populist
candidate for congress addressed the citi-
zens of The Dalles last evening at the
eoHrt house. There was fair represeH-
tation OF the members of the third party
present, who were enthusiastic over their
novel ideas OF government. Generals
who command armies and plan cam
paigns around parlor stoves and never
see the tented field, statesmen who man
age national affains en- street corners are
On On the same level with Populist orators.
AS far as we have known any attempt
made to deduce these thories to practice
have been miserable failures. Senator
Peffer in congress has 1eyer originated q
single measure that would help the peo-
PIE of the country, and Governors Luel-
ling, of Kansas, Waite Of Colorado and
Pannoyer ei Oregon have brought their
different states to the verge Of anarchy.
Theory and practice are far different, and
frequently the latter cannot be made
to harmonic with the former.

After joint conference the commi ttee
reported they could not agree. President
Mcbride said he was willing to have
vote taken en- the compromise offered by
operators, but be guaranteed the mine rs
would be unanimously against 1t. He
continued; 'As native-born citizen,
blush to think the busIneas interests
are builded upon starvation and the de
grading wages paid the laborers repre-
sent. We want you to give rs living
wages snd to Increase the price of coal so
you can get fair profit"
Co'onel Red, of Chicago, said the 65

posed compromise of go and SO cents
He scored the mine ASSOCIATION for refus.

President Pena responded holly to al

settlement Of this portion of the county
has been the lack of water, and this, in
some instances, has to be hauled dis
