what he thought he could explain and
deny what he couldn't before the investi-

tons are that he did for when he attempted
to explain away those secret meetings be-

the attempt was transparent. In order that
one or two members of the committee might
arrive at righteous judgment concerning the

to change front again before the presiden-
tial election. Even if the income tax should
be stricken from the revenue bill by Demo-
cratic senators, the heavy Democratic vote
for it in the House would remain to show
the purpose of the party. The warfare
upon the great industries of Eastern states
has taught vast body of workers by per-
sonal loss or suffering, what it means to
trust the Democratic party. But having
staked everything on its chance of attract
ing the Populist votes at the West, the
Democratic party now finds that it has no
ground to hope for success in a single
Western state.
The dispatches indicate that the Republi-
cans have polled in Oregon about 5000
more votes than they cast two years ago,
drawing part from each of the opposing
factions, but they also indicate that the
Populists have been gaining in many coun-
ties while the Democrats have been losing
heavily. 1t is as if 10000 of the Demo
cratic voters in this State should cast their
ballots directly for Republican candidates.
Doubtless many Democrats of intelligence
and practical business knowledge have been
disguised by the leanings of their party
toward Populist foolishness and knavery,
but at the same time more ignorant voters
of that party have been led astray by the
utterances of Pennoyer and others like him.
Gains to the Populists from the Democratic
ranks appear to have more than made up
for the loss of many former Republicans,
who have doubtless learned their folly and
returned to political sanity. But precisely
the same tendencies have appeared in other
Western states. Oregon is heard more dis
tinctly than other states west of Ohio only
because it has spoken more loudly. The
lesson it teaches is that in fishing for Popu-
list votes the Democratic party is almost
destroying itself.

The oregon Victory.

"The Dutch have taken Holland, says
Senator Vest. 1t would be an insult to his
intelligence, says the New York Tribune,
to suppose that he was trying to tell the
truth about the Oregon election. To him,
as to other Democrats, the result of that
election must be extremely significant. As
Maine has been for many years a barom-
eter of political opinion at the East, so ris-
ing or falling pluralities in, Oregon have
disclosed much of coming events at the
Wet. But within the last few years the
diviSions of party have been so peculiar
that "the largest plurslitye yer given in
Oregon" now has very definite meaning.
When the same state gave about 1000 Re-
publican plurality at the June election in
1883 all knew that It foreshadowed Repub-
lican victories at the West, for in 1884 it
had given only 2200 and in 1880 but GIL
plurality. The repeated elections of the
Democratic and Populist governor, Pen
meyer, showed that the lowest kind of DEM
agoeism was rampant in Oregon, and the
overwhelming defeat of his personal am
bition for the senatorship, and the election
of Republican governor by large plural
ity, are sure and cheering signs of reaction
against nonsense and dishonesty in a state
which has produced as much Coxeyism as
almost any other.
Two years ago in the June election Re-
publican defeats at the West were fairly
indicated by the result in Oregon. The
Populist fanaticism polled IL 900 votes, the
Democrats 80, 900 and the Republicans 3D.
900, and the partial fusion on presidential
elector in November resulted in the choice
of one eiector for Weaver. But dispatches
now indicate that the fusion of Democratic
and Populist votes Oh legislative candidates
has been Overwhelmingly beaten, and the
Republican candidate for governor has about
$1,000 votes, against about $4,000 for the
Populist, out of total vote of so, 900. This
result indicates great change of voters for
so small state. If a tenth of the whole
number Of voters in state turn from one
side to the other. it means in state like
New York 25O, 900 majority, and in state
like Ohio about double the 81 900 plurality
given for Governor Mckinley. When 1.-THE

has already been made, and it goes without

tain their seats SO long as they are per-

have to be allowed that Maine derives a
