sure of its State Central Committeeman
and conceded three memb bers CT the COM
mttee TO Rainey, Daggett and Lanigan,
with two or three more doubtful. When
the eighteen State Central Committee men
were chosen the "decent" element was
found to have three and two are doubtful.
This result was largely due to Mr.. Lani-
gan, who made the State Central Commit
tee his especial business at Sacramento.
The combination with Lanigan was made
primarily with a view to keeping State
Central Committeeman out of the hands
of the McNab element. Lanigan had the
balance of power in several districts and
Rainey thought 1t was better toelet Lani-
gan have some plumS than to let them fall
into the hands of the enemy.
SO it was that Max Pepper was beaten
in the Thirty-sixth District and E. P
Mogan, the Police Court clerk and close
friend of Lanigan, elected. In this dis
trict the Rainey-L -Lanigan delegates lacked
one OF majority, and that one was Sc
cured through the influence of T. j..
Clunie with one of the delegates. Pepper
had gone out to fight Clunie for the Con-
gressional nomination two weeks before
and all at once it came Clunie's way to
get back at Pepper by plishing his
defeat for the State Central COMMITTEES.
The Rainey- Lanigan victory in this
field was the more striking from the fact
that the INSIDE" which named tifty-three
delegates at large, played what they
thought was 'cinch" by arbitrarily ap-
portioning these delegates at large among
the districts so as to make needed major
tiles in the district delegations secure.
But after all the sure-thing work of the
MeNab element they were routed by the
clever work of people who do politics as
practical politics should be done.
Now the Raineyites figure that if it
should happen that the State Central Com
mittee should try to take hand in the
local situation they will have a good-sized
bunch of friends in the committee. The
BuckIeyites are likewise counting on
friends from Los Angeles, Orange, Solano,
Santa Clara, Santa Cruz and other counties,
and if the Raineyites and Buckleyites come
to any agreement about dividing things
they will be in position to get about
what they want.
The reorganization of 1885 will be a
wholly different affair from that of 1892.

NoRTHuP's GREAT STRENGTH.
Makes Gains in wasco and Very Strong
In Crook
Oregonian

Oregonian.
Mr., T. A Hudson. secretary Of The
Dalles Military Road Company. and a
prominent business man OF that place, is
in town. and was seen by a reporter yes
terday relative to Judge Northup's cam
paign for sound money.
Il introduced Judge Northup to the
audience at The Dalles." said Mr.. Hud-
son. and can truthfully say that his
speech had most pronounced effect in
our town. l was surprised the next day
at the change OF sentiment. Men, both
Republicans and Democrats, whom had
no idea were going to vote for Northup.
came out openly and said they were go-
ing TO support him.
Two years ago the Republican vote in
Wasco county was some l,SOO. the Demo-
cratic was about 40 and the Populist
was about so I myself believe that
Northup will get 500 votes, although you
can't estimate it. because It is going to

In regard 10 Crook county, which
joins on to our county. l have received
an account from that section through a
prominent lawyer OF our place. He has

AN EASY ANSWER.

An old correspondent asks the Asto-
Eian.
What is TO become OF the silver now
In circulation II We have gold basis (;
viii il not depreciate in the hands OF
the peOple?"
Our subscriber doesn't seem 10 under
stand that this fear OF deprecated silver
and appreciated gold in the hands OF the
people is the only difficulty with our
financial condition. and that this appre-
bension has been produced solely by the
agitation OF the past few years for a
change in the existing system by the
adoption OF a law providing for the free
and unlimited coinage Of silver.
1t should be bvrne in mind that the
gold advocate is not demanding any
change in the existing money standard,
with reference TO either gold or silver.
We now have as good money as any
country in the world, and there is no
occasion to change it. Our silver and
gold circulate everywhere side by side
with each other at the same parity. As
Judge Northup explained the other night,
one OF our silver dollars viii now buy
two Mexican dollars. Notwithstanding
the Mexican dollar contains the larger
amount OF silver. The Popuiist says
this IS because Of the governments FIAT
an the silver dollar, but he is mistaken.
II is because our government guarantees
not a promise to pay as the Populists
put IT. but-the actual payment on de-
mand Of dollar in gold for each OF its
silver dollars.
This is the gold basis. and upon no
other can the government maintain the
circulating parity Of the two metals.
There cannot be two standards Of value
for the same money, and such a PROPOSE
ton suggests ridiculous solecism,
physical impossibility. The question be-
fore the country today is not that OF
having two standards. but OF conforming
eur monetary system, or rather keeping
II sonformed as It now is, TO that Of all
other great nations in the world. They
have the gold standard, and, whether
right or wrong. will have no other. We
must Of necessity have the same measure
for our money, or cease TO do business
with them except at great Inconvenience
and disadvantage.
1t thus happens that the men who de-
fend the gold standard are fighting to
maintain the parity value Of the silver
dollar, for it is only by the preservation
Of the gold standard that the circulation
II the silver dollar can be maintained;
and this is why the gold standard advo-
cate is the true friend Of silver. This is
the true issue Of the money question,
and after all. what plain and simple
one It is. Shall we keep our money
at the certain fixed value which makes
II good. or shall we try an experiment
which would reduce 1t to the vacillating,
uncertain value which the history OF the
world shows has always made it bad?
II our subscriber, therefore, is salts
fed with the present value and purchas-
ing power Of his silver dollar, he should
act with the gold standard men and help
protect that dollar from the depreciation
which would inevitably result through
the free coinage Of silver.

Of The Dalles, written from Hay Creek,

headquarters at Portland:
Il got here yesterday Sunday after
noon on my way to Prineville. and a
little notice brought together a very good
crowd OF sheepshearers, woolhaulers,
sheep-herders. etc. and addressed them
in the evening. The sentiment here is
overwhelmingly for Judge Northup. Free
silver men are scarce. They tell me It is
the same around Prineville and Fitchell-
that the Judge will get large vote from
all parties in Crook county.
