Feels the Need of Foreign Aid and Would
 Welcome It.
 It is claimed that notwithstanding Lii Hung Chang has shown some liberal ity of views toward modern improve ment and education, he is at heart hater of foreigners and has an abid- ing faith in Chinese institutions and methods of government, says Cen tury. He is, it is true, great admirer of Confucian philosophy, and remem- bering the enduring history of his peo- pie we can hardly wonder at his devo- ton to the institutions which have made that history possible.
 When we call to mind the experience China has had with certain western nations, it might not be considered strange if his attachment to foreigners was not very ardent; but in all his pub lie life his conduct shows that he feels the need of foreign aid and is disposed to give it proper welcome, and of all Chinese statesmen he is the most liber- al-minded and free from prejudice He is far from claiming that the pres ent system of government is perfect. He has, in fact, urged upon the author ities at Picking two important changes which look to a reform of the most serious defects in the system, to-wit, the withdrawal from the viceroys of provinces of powers which should be exercised only by the imperial govern ment and such change in the method of admission to the public service as will liberalize the examinations and l make fitness rather than scholarship the test There are other changes which he would gladly bring about il he had the power; but, as he confessed to Marquis Ito: China is hampered by antiquated customs which prevent de sirable reforms"

In your last issue, you say Gas
usual in this county, republicans
are responsible for republican de
feat" Permit me TO say I do not
think the defeat Of the county or
legislative ticket is fairly charg
able TO republicans, or even to
those admirable qualities which
you say Sol King possesses, and
which some Of our "sore heads" in
! dulg d in. We had less dissatls-
faction with our nominations than
the democrats had. No man can
count on every member of his par
ty, but will usually draw from the
opposite one what he losses in his
own.
There were about 1900 votes
cast. think the populist party
polled not less than 400 Of them.
This would leave 500 democratic
and republican votes. | received
S33-a fair majority, and all l had
reason to expect from my party.
The combination between populists
and democrats, which Was adhered
to as strictly as if it had been
agreed to in convention, rendered
republican victory impossible. The
democrats surrendered principle
for pell; the populists fastened Il
$4,000 fraud upon the county in
order to get Whitaker in the legis-
lat re. He may be worth The
money, but we can tell better when
We pay our taxes,
The commercial vote wa: cen
tered upon the democratic clerk
and sheriff by the liberal use OF
money and whiskey.
| AS for myself, l thank the re-
publican party for the support
given me. and hope no republican
will feel despondent over defeat
Such a combination as was made
against us is sure to react upOn
the parties forming it, and will i'll
time be sure to aid the success oil
our principles. We have made a
clean fight and need not be
ashamed of our record. Will the
democrats dare say as much.

A BAD IMPRESSION.

The election of John Whita-
ker does not imply belief on
the part of Benton county peo-
pie in the principles of popu-
lism. The local situation, local
interests, personal matters and
the A. P. A. question contribu-
ted to his election. No one
doubts but that Mr.. Whitaker
desires to do ali he can for the
best Interests Of the people of
his county and the state, and as
the populists have not strength
enough in the legislature to en-
sure the passage of any of their
peculiar legislative ideas, he will
do no harm.
But it is not to the credit ol
Benton county that a populist
represents her. The populist
parth is not a safe party. 1t is a
party of nalcontents and vision
aries. 1t is the party favored by
strikers and anarchists. 1t is
not a party called into existence
by some mighty convicting prin-
ciple Of right, but is the project
Of little and disappointed poll
ticians, and seizes upon every
floating craze concerning govern
mental matters, in order to gain
popularity. 1t is but a tempo
rary ,nakeshift party, a party
that has gained control of two
states, nearly wrecked the credit
of both, and been repudiated by
both at the first opportunity.
Benton county is not a popu-
list county. But small portion
of Mr.. Whitaker's votes were
cast by populists and he was
elected despite the fact that he
was populist, not because Of it.
His personality, his honesty oi
purpose, is not called into CUES
ton, but politically, his election
misrepresents the people of Ben
ton county and does their intelli-
gence and good sense all injus-
tice. We are represented by a
populist and the world in gener-
al will not enquire closely as. tc
the real reasons.

In practical operation under
the present condition of affairs,
free coinage of silver in the Uni
ted States would perhaps not do
great deal of harm. But the
principle seems an unsound one,
and the people of this nation will
not care to experiment with
wrong policies. The extreme
ideas of Cleveland, and such as
are advocated by the Oregonian,
seem greatly away from the true
solution of the problem, while
the position taken by Mr.. Tongue
will doubtless be that of the re-
publican party, and Will be the
one endorsed by the people OF
this country next November. -

populist as political interloper, a

AN important factor in the
prosperity of the Oregon Agri-
cultural College is the close
warm sympathy of the citizens
of Corvallis toward the institu-
ton. This sympathy is mani
tested in various ways and not
the least important is the inter
est manifested in the athletic
sports of the students. 1t would
be difficult to find a healthier,
more manly, more intelligent lot
of young men anywhere than
those that attend the O. A. c.

lege that is yearly gaining i'll

THE title Oregon Agricultural
College is somewhat misleading
by limitation. The institution
is also a mechanical college and
in fact is a college of general
science. The literary courses are
far from being neglected and the
young man or woman who thor
oughly masters the courses at the
o. A. c., is we'll fitted to prose
cute any special pursuit his in
clination and taste may choose.
The scope and practically of the
work at this Institution are but
family conprehended by even
some of its warmest friends. The
people OF the state are fast awak-
ing to its value, and indications
point to largely increased at
tendance next autumn.

OREGON ON FINANCE.

The Oregonian claims that
Mitchell, Hermann and Ellis
failed to stand upon the republi
can platform of 1892, in voting
for free silver, and yet it coll
demned our recent republican
state convention for endorsing the
financial plank of that platform.
In truth that plank leaves the
financial question to great ex-
tent a matter of opinion.
There is a wide difference Of
ideas as to how much silver the
mints can be allowed to coin,
without affecting the parity of
the two metals as money. The
coming capacity of the 1nints is
limited, and a great many peo-
pie who scorn the proposition
that more money will tend to
bring about prosperity, are hard
1y frightened at the bug-a-boos of
the rabid gold organs. The thing
chiefly to be desired is to have
the financial question settled.
The recent election in Oregon
can hardly be claimed as a victo-
ry for free silver. In this dis
trict it is true that Tongue re-
ceived but bare plurality, and
that large number of silver re-
publicans voted for him rightly
believing that the republican
party is the safest with which to
trust the solution Of all great
national questions. But on the
other hand only a small proper
ton of Myers votes were those
of free silver democrats. They
voted for Vanderberg, and many
republicans, not for free silver,
also voted for Vanderberg, deem
ing Tongues election certain,
and wishing to rebuke party lead
ers for the manner in which they
set aside Hermann. -
In the second district Bennett's S
vote evidently came from demo-
Gratis without much distinction
as to belief on the money ques-
ton. Ellis vote was also made
up of republicans of all shades
as to financial opinions, while
Northrup's 5000 votes were,
without doubt, from the anti-free
silver forces alone.
The lesson of the election
seems to be, that the people of
Oregon are opposed to the free
and unlimited coinage of silver,
but are not adverse to a much
more liberal attitude toward the
white metal than the present ad-
ministration assumes. The vo-
tiers of Oregon evidently believe
that they can best trust the re-
publican party to handle the ques-
ton satisfactorily, and that there
are other questions than the f.
nancial one; more important and
more pertinent to our prosperity.
The election is a practical en-
dorsement of the principle of pro-
lection, and considering the leg
islature, of one of the most able
advocates of protection, Senator
John H. Mitchell.

THE people of the nation vii

The people of the nation will
not allow any secretly conspiring
body of men, no matter how good
their purpose, control of its af-
fairs. The A. P. 4, has given
and can give 10 sensible, intelli-
gent reason for its existence as ii
political factor. Good men should
not be afraid to advocate good
principle openly, and as plain
American citizens. The wrong
not the right should prefer dark
ness to light.

Aldermen conferred with Mayor Wanser

office on the question of appointing an
auetioneer to conduct the proposed sale

under the Martin act. The Aldermen
were accompanied by Counsellor John
Griffin.
When the Finance Board at a recent
meeting rescinded a resolution which al

ton of naming a candidate whose appoint
ment must be concurred in by the Finance
r. G. Wolbert, but that gentle
man was Objectionable TO the FL

The Aldermen are still holding out for
Wolbert. and unless the difficulty is ad-
justed it is likely no sale will take place.
The Mayor and the Finance Commits
stoners favor the appointment of Frank
Stevens for the reason that he is familiar
with the way such sales are conducted

pose he was to conduct the spring sale
