The Corvallis gazette. [volume] (Corvallis, Or.) 1862-1899, 1895-05-30
CORVALLIS, OREGON, MAY 80, 1895.
WHAT ARE I'VE FIGHTING FOR2.

1t Is mystery vet TO be solved as to
what campaign powder the Oregonlan
expects the republican party to fire in
1896 It thoroughly endorses cleveland's
and Carlisle's financial policy. 1t insists
that Wilson S tariff bill must not tnateri-
a1iy be interfered with, and, except for
few halfhearted criticisms of Gresham,
1t endorses all the acts of Clevelands s
cabinet. If the democratic party is all
SO proper and the thing, why change
at all? What reason can the republicans
give why they should be restored to
power? OF course the Republican party
can point with pride to Lincoln, Grant,
Blaine and Garfield and to its thirty
years of prosperous reign, but the peo-
pie want something more substantial
than this pointing with pride" How
ever, it is probable that majority of the
republicans do not believe in Mr.. Cleve-
lands financial policy. 1t is very evil
dent that great majority believe in
return to protective legislation. Atleast
three-ffths of the delegates to the late
convention of republican clubs were
favorable to the free coinage of silver;
but great number of them were opposed
to making that an issue in advance of
the adoption of a state platform. Al
though no persons who favored commit
ting the club to a present expression
of free coinage of silver were elected as
delegates to Cleveland, several of those
who were chosen are known to be favor
able to the white metal and none are
pronounced anti-free silver men.
The party must be definite in all its
expressions. 1t must let the people know
exactly where it stands and what it
believes. It must recognize the silver
element of the party and declare une-
quivocally for protection. If the party
does this, 1t will have principles to fight
for, and cannot fail to sweep the country
for its favorites in 1896.

A FAKE POLITICAL CIRCUS.

Could Barnum, the great Snowman,
have lived to this day, he might have
learned something in the way of adver-
tising recently that would have filled his
mammoth tents with de1uded people,
and his Golfers with shining shekels
The great Oregon political hippodrome,
containing the greatest galaxy of po1iti-
cal stars that ever graced an Oregon as
senblage, heralded by the Portland pa
pers as the coming wonder, upon whose
acts the eyes of all the world would be
fixed, came and has gone. It was gor-
geous parade and the banners were loud
and gaudy; but the management con-
tented itself with brass band advertising.
1t had only one animal to show, the
noble lion, Joseph Nestor Dolph; and
before the performance was half over,
the skin of the lion slipped off, exposing
the gigantic ears of the ass.
A majority of the Portland delegates
had announced its determination to
frown upon any expression of political
principles. There was great curiosity
manifested among the other delegates,
therefore, as to the real objects and aims
of the convention. The real purpose
soon manifested itself. 1t was to serve
to introduce Mr.. Dolph as an active can
didate for the United States senatorship
to succeed Mr.. Mitchell. He was put
forward and put himself forward at every
opportunity. But his experience could
not have been a pleasant one nor crafty
ing to his political managers. The con-
vention for Mr.. Dolph was a dismal fail
ure
Practically all that was accomplished
was the election of fourteen delegates to
the national convention. Questions per-
tanning to club organization and CAM
paign work were altogether ignored.
All this hurrah, all this advertising, all
these seven hundred actual delegates,
resulted in nothing more than the se1ec-
ton of fourteen men to go to Cleveland
and few speeches. The mountain
labored and brought forth mouse.
