Nearly all the Democrats here are OPP

DEFECTIVE ELECTION LAW.

the votes cast IN the late election shows
that our election system is radically de

Killed by Freight.

A laboring man nat.ed Cedersou
was accidentally killed Wednesday
evening at Seufert's cannery. Wasco
county, on the OR. & n, by the de-
railing Of Il freight train. The man
had evidently been at work atSeufert's
fisheries,and was starding alongside
the track, waiting for the freight to
pass.when one of the grain cars, for
some unaccountable reason, jumped
the track toward Cederson and crushed
him before he could move. The car
caused three or four other grains cars
to jump the track, and blocked the
track for while. The distractions
were quickly removed ,and the remains
of CedersOn turned over to the coroner
of the county. Superintendent
O'Brien is investigating the matter,
though no blame can attach to any OF
the trainmen. The accident occurred
at $3.50 O'Clock in the evening.

CAN IT LASTp

1t seems Incredible that the poliii-
cal independence for which our fore
fathers so fearlessIy strove over q
century ago, and which has been SC
zealously guarded ever since, should
today be made subseryient to the die
tation of few.
Though brought on by different
forces The abject condition which
our political system Is being driven
to, is precisely like that which drove
the early patriots to the field of bat
tie in defence Of freedom, and il
should again inspire some Of the old
courage and resentment that placed
America foremost among the nations
Of the ear.h.
We refer TO the tyranous corpora
ton that would impel its employees
to vote as it wants, irrespective Of
their convictions and at the risk oi
their positions. The unfortunate
feature of this condition is that the
workingman is so situated that he
cannot proclaim his independence
without endaDgerirg further employ
ment, and we all know what the
throwing Of millions out Of employ
ment would mean.
This condition OF affairs is fai
more Objectionable TO our country
than foreign rule. The latter could at
any time be overthrow, but the for
mer could not so easily be overcome
Those who would assist in Kidding
the country Of the first eviIswould BIZ

pressing the second, the greater out,

and lots Of other vile names.

| TO its estimate ON the cost of refinery
1 That the figures which we ignore re.
duces the reiner's profit TO one and
| twc-tbirds per cent and excludes the
planter entirely, sufficiently refutes
their authenticity. Mr.. Mcfarland
is more liberal; he allows profit OF
three per cent. 1t will be observed
that the statements of Mr.. McFar-
land and the TImes-Democrat are at
variance, and closer observation will
reveal that they are at variance with
reason.
The Times-Democrat says IL is for
the south. So are we for the south, +,
but we will no. let our zeal overcome
our Judgment. That great nlws-
paper proclaims to the four winds
that one of the south's greatest in =
dustry IS not self-supportng, Is
that an Invitation to capital? Is that
an inducement for the prospective in
vestor? The capitalist will rather
stay at home, and invest his money
in bonds or place it 10 bank and OBJ.
tair greater returns without risk of
loss.
Since 1928, the year which gave
birth to the sugar industry Of Louisi-
ana, until the present. day that indus
try has thrived. 1t never knew pro-
lection, and excepting the late boun-
ty has developed without government
al aid. II were idle to say that the
industry has reached It's present stage
of development on one and two
thirds per cent road.
Some of the sugar planters OF our
sister state are the richest men In the
south. They have accumulated their
wealth without protection. But the
taste Of bounty has set their blood
athIrst. In their rapacious greed
they would wreck and rend.
To say that the planter, we mean
the refiner, for the planter makes
nothing, but realizes profit Of one
and two-thirds per cent ON his enor-
nous investment is to slander his in
telligence. One and two thirds per
cent is simply ridiculous.
The Times-Democrat has made a
grievous mistake, and to correct that
misteke is duty IL owes itself, tho
sugar planters Of Louisiana and the
entire south.

The United States one of these

The adoption by the United States
of silver and gold as its standard

These international monetary con-
ventions have never accomplished
anything, and the clause which has
heretofore appeared in the democrat
ic fnancial plank, and which appears
in the republican plank Of this year,
deferring free silver coinage until the
cooperation of other gold standard
nations can be secured is practically
meaningless and unworthy OF Amer
ican forbearance.
Neither declarations nor time will

DEMocRAr1c--1s92.

DEMOCRAIIC-loJG'
Public Office is public trust. We re-
affirm the declaration OF tho democratic
national convention of 1876 for the reform
OF the civil service, and VIC call for the
honest enforcement of all laws regulating
the same. The nomination of president,
as in the republican convention, by dele
cations composed largely of his appointees
holding office at bis pleasure, Is scanda-
lous satire upon free popular institutions
and startling Illustration of the methods
by which president may crafty his am
bition, We denonnce policy under
which Federal ofiiee-hulders usurp control
OF party conventions in the states, and we
pledge the democratic party to the reform
of these and all other abuses which threat
eu individual liberty and self government.
There is nothing revolutionary In
the democratic civil service plank of
1896. 1t IS simply an affirmation Of
that Of 1892. No man who approx
ed, supported and voted the demo-
cratic ticket in the last presidential
election should dare to attack the
civil service plank Of 1896, as 1t
bears the impress OF democracy.
The same declaration is expressed
in the republican plank. Doubly nec-
essary must be civil service reform
since both parties are in favor OF 1t.
Life tenure In public should not
be, as is amply explained in the plat
form of 1892; and we do not believe
any sane man would reverse the APP
pointive system based upon merit.
The plank is in touch with the peo-
pie. 1t is an illustration Of that
splendid democratic truth, Equal
rights TO all; special privileges to
none,
Compare the two democratic planks
and you will wonder how you could
think i'll Of your party. The party of
of Jefferson and Monroe has not
changed. 1t is as ready to defend
your interests as it ever was. Be-
meath the broad spread Of its right
eous principles each and every one
has an equal right.
