The single standard advocates
have much to say about the coun-
try going to a silver basis. If it
does, it will be the gold bugs that
will put it there. What the free
coinage advocates demand is not
gold or silver, but gold and silver,
both Of equal buying and debt pay
ing capacity. When that is the
law, there will be no object in de-
preciating silver, and as we are an
exporter Of silver, the foreign pur-
chaser will have to pay dollar for
dollar for our silver. We shall
send no more gold out the country
than we do now or our obligations
require. Silver simply demands
the rights it has under the consti-
tuition. Dispatch.

IT is somewhat astonishing how
many men this community really
holds who are capable of managing
a political campaign after it is over.
Hosts of long haired populists are
bemoaning the folly of their lead
ers. Legions Of red eyed republi-
cans of both factions wildly de-
nounce the management of each.
And most Of the defeated demo-
cratic candidates vow vengeance
against suspected traitors in the
party. No one is satisfied but

4 FREE SILHER STATE.

L Sour silver people now assume
that Oregon is silver state. She
is not. The recent election does not
prove that the people Of Oregon
would prefer the silver standard to
the gold standard. They who take
1t SO are greatly in error. The
issue was not directly before the
people. Large numbers of the
supporters Of the gold standard
exerted themselves to the utmost
to prevent a straight issue. The
gold standard people were divided
while the silver standard people
were practically united. The facts
are well known to our people. We
hope to bring them to the attention
Of those Of other states. Oregon
ian.
The Oregonian has q faculty of
making black look white, but it
will have some difficulty in estab-
fishing the fact by the recent cleo
tion that "Oregon is not a silver
state" In the first district Tongue
has a small plurality over Wander
burg. The latter's vote is solid for
free silver. Tongue received as
many free silver republican votes
as Myers received democratic gold
standard votes by reason Of party
obligations. Allowing that each
received q thousand votes of this
character, and there would be fully
5000 majority in the first district
infavor of free silver. In the second
district the condition is even worse.
Ellis no doubt received about one
half the republican single standard
vote, while the other half cast for
him was favorable to free silver.
The goldbug democrats went to
Northrup almost solid and Bennett
did not receive a thousand of their
votes. Northrup has about 5000
votes. Add to these $3.50 Of Ellis
gold vote and 1000 of Benefits,
and we have less than 5000 votes
favorable to the gold standard out
Of o vote of about LOCO, which
leaves about 25,000 in favor of the
double stanard, or a clear majority
lof 5000. If the question Of free
coinage Of silver were submitted to1
the voters of Oregon it would carry
BY at least 5000 majority. The
recent election demonstrated this
fact. The 0regonian, as usual, de-
yiates from the truth when it says
the goldites were divided and the
silverites united in the contest. The
reverse is the case. In the first
district Tongue made his contest
on single standard issue against
Myers and Vanderburg, who we're
both on the silver platform. In
the second district Northrup was
on gold issue alone against Ben
nett and Quinn on straight free
silver issue and Ellis on a straddle
with a free silver record, being
three silver candidates against one
gold. The fact is that the goldites
were united while the silverites
we're divided and by that means
about one-third of 0regon's vote
elects the two congressman. In
other words, $4,000 out Of the
$4,000 elect Tongue and Ellis. The
Oregonian is correct when it says
that the result "does not prove that
the people Of Oregon would prefer
the silver standard to the gold
standard" 1t signifies that they
want both gold and silver on an
equality. That is what free coin
age means.-Portland Dispatch.

Chinese can never be civilized until

In striking contrast with Chinese hig-
gledepiggledy, the Greek language is be-
