THE POPULIST PLATFORM.

The populist platform certainly will
be grievous disappointment to the
populists of the state. 1t must be
proof to them how little they know
what they want. They are thor
oughly discontented and querulous
sort of people. satisfied with nothing
that exists, talking large and wide
about the evils and abuses of society
and government; but when they come
to make statement of what they
think is really the matter, what they
actually want, how they would reform
political society and regenerate the
state, their performance is amusingly
barren, jejune, inane. The prophecy
was thunder; the result is small beer.
We had looked for a platform which
would properly denounce any use or
influence of money on industry or bus
mess, and deliverance of the people,
therefore, from the tyranny Of values.
But we see nothing in the platform
that promises this freedom to the peo-
pie, There is no suitable dennnciation
of goldbugs and plutocrats. Even
free coinage of silver is overlooked,
except in the vague reference to the
Omaha platform; and yet, if populism
has any mission, free coinage of silver
comes nearer to an expression of Its
fundamental idea or purpose than any
other single thing. How could these
followers of Governor Pennoyer over
look the great question on which he
has severed his relations with the dem
ocratic party and set up as a rival to
Grover Cleyeland in leadership and

KILL THE WILSON BILL.

The hard times of the past year
will be greatly increased by the
passage Of the infamous Wilson
bill. Every possible effort should
be made to defeat the measure
to delay it in any event. We can
better afford IA few months of un-
certainty than four years of gener-
al ad, ersity, suffering aud distress.
Under the most favorable circum-
stances, the Wilson bill, if it be-
come a law, cannot be changed un-
til the summer Of 1897. United
States senators, irrespective oil
party, should be urged to defeat or
by every parliamentary method
delay the passage of this measure
On June 4th and November 9th.

nifty to speak. Their verdict must

ORGANIZATION NECESSARY.

Now is the time to organize.
Republicans should organize clubs
in every precinct, that their III
f1uence may permeat- every set
tlement in the county. The neces-
sity for thorough organization
was never more apparent. We
meet demo pop fusion in June.
1t must be defeated. These clubs
should be organized not only for
the coming campaign, but for the
maintaining Of a permanent Or
ganization for the constant spread
of republican principles, during the
long intervals between elections.
Do not hesitate because you can
not have a large club. Organize
at once. Six members are enough
to form club that will be recog-
nized by the state club, and its
delegate will be received into the
state club biennial meeting. A
club of that size would exert far
greater influence for good than
twice that number unorganlzed.
Suggestions for organization and
form of constitution and bylaws
have been sent to prominent re-
publicans in each precinct during
the past week, by the correspond
ing secretary of the Benton county
republican club, and asked to use
their efforts toward perlectlng an
organization in their respective
precincts. Republicans will not
be satisfied this year by just mere
ly defeating their opponents, but
they want to roll up such an over
whelming majority that republi-
cans everywhere will joyfully shout
the name of Oregon.

Americas Great Danger
AN ENGLISH COMMENTARY.

Said an eminent English scientist recently.
"The danger that confronts the great Ameri-
can people to-day is not the possible adop-
ton of wrong financial policy for the
nation, or the spread of socialism, or the
increase of corruption among public men.
All these are bad enough, to be sure, but
they are as nothing compared to the terrible
national disease-1 had almost said national
crime-of overwork. The mad rush for
wealth is set at killing pace, and thousands
fall by the way every year.
You are likely to be one Of the victims! T!
How do we know? Because it is the excep-
ton to find man or woman of adult age IN

NO TIME FOR QUIBBLINo.

People in this vicinity will be
pleased at the prospects of secur-
ing an appropriation of five thous-
and dollars for improvement OF
the Willamette near Corvallis.
This amount, however, will not be
sufficient with which to complete
the work already under consider
alton. At the very lowest esti
mate it will require ten thousand
dollars. This amount judiciously
expended may be sufficient to re
move the obstruction at the upper
end of the old west channel, but
this is not all that is required
This water way is now seven feet
below low water mark, and tmust
be dredged out for a distance of at
least one thousand feet in order to
be of any practicable use. A wing
dam at the mouth of East river is
necessary that the volume of water
which flows through it may be
forced into the proposed cut off.
If these plans can be successfully
carried out during the coming sum
mer months, further appropria-
lions will be unnecessary. To do
this, the present appropriation
must be doubled. Five thousand
dollars spent for this purpose may
result in some temporary relief,
but much Of 1T will be wasted by
leaving the work in an uncomplet-
ed state. To afford permanent
relief the plans under contempla -
ton must be carried ont in full.
This can be accomplished with ten
thousand dollars and no less.
Farmers can plow and raise crops,
but they can not be expected to
keep rivers open for navigation.
This is one of the principal duties
OF the government, and when such
matters are brought to the alten-
ton of congress, and the necessity
of prompt action made plain. its
members should lose no time in
quibbling over such small
amount.

opP0RTUNI77Es.F For REFORM.

The last session Of the legisla-
ture enacted a law whereby many
duties of the police judge and city
treasurer have been obviated.
Heretofore the duty of assessing
the city and making the tax roll
was assigned to the police judge,
and the task of collecting the taxes
devolved upon the cityrtreasurer.
Under the new lawythe duties OF
the former have been assigned to
Ithe county assessor, and those of
l..he latter to the sheriff. The po-
lice judge is now required to keep
a record of the council proceedings,
draw warrants on the treasurer.
preside at all sessions Of the police
court, which are very unfrequent,
and attend to some other minor
affairs. Although he has been
relieved of some of the most i'm
portant duties, he still draws a
salary of six hundred dollars an
nually. Duties of the treasurer
have also been materially lessened
yet he draws two hundred and
forty dollars each year for his SER
vices. Times are hard. Money is
scarce. Taxpayers should be re-
1ieved of every possible expense.
Salaries should be cut and expenses
reduced to minimum. A saving
can be made in these two items
alone, of five hundred dollars an
-nually. Plenty of men can be
found in Corvallis who will per-
form the duties now assigned to the
police judge, in a capable and eff
ficient manner for twenty dollars
per month, Or. two hundred and
forty dollars yearly, and one hum
dred dollars per year is ample re-
muneration for the slight duties
performed by the treasurer. The
council can not be deaf to the clam
NOR on the part of our citizens for
retrenchment. Now is good time
for the members of that body to
display their ability as fianciers.
Let us hope that they will give the
matter their immediate attention.

Wool growers who vote the
democratic ticket must be insane.
All thinking men should look well
into the cause of their reverses;
should give careful thought to leg
islation effectlng their interests,
and vote with the party whose
principles stand for protection of
their business. A decrease of p
225.536 i'm the number sheep in
the United States last year is due
to a fear of free trade in wool. A
total loss of $56.723, 154 in the
value of our fiocks is due to the
same cause. Thus, saws the Amer
lean Economist, has the soup house
administration carried its policy Of
prostration onto American farms.
In this connection it is interesting
to note that. on february 1st, there
were 23,669,914 pounds of foreign
wool waiting in bond at New York
alone for remission Of the duty SO
that it can rush in and help to glut
the market and hasten the ruin of
the American farmer.
