similar action. General Weyler ad-
vised the chamber to be prudent.

the export of only the manufactured
product.
General Weyler has placed restric-
tionS on the sale of petroleum and has
prohibited its sale i'm the interior towns

THEY NEED THE MONEY.

The railroad and steamboat corpora
tions have spent so much money IN
this campaign that they haye ad-
vanced freight rates by rail and river
to all points in the Willamette valley
Rates to Salem from Portland have
been advanced from cents to 2l and
27 cents per hundred. This hits Sa-
lem hard.
Supt. Fields of the Southern Pacific
tramped miles in the mud of Portland
streets Saturday night blowing an
immense horn for Mckinley and the
gold standard. Train loads were
hauled from all directions at half
price and thousands on free passes.
All this must be paid in higher
freights. The merchant must pay it
first and cannot collect it out OF the
consumer unless he advances retail
prices. This is a "business man's''
campaign.

THE BATTLE IN MARION.

Next to Portland, the battle fol
political control in Oregon centers on
Salem and Marion county. Messrs.
Ike Patterson, Banker Mccormack,
"Doc" Smith, Doc" Keene, ct al
would rather lose the United States
to Mckinley than lose their grip on
Marion county.
If Bryan men are on their guard
there need be very little repeating il
legal voting, ballot-box stuffing and
fraudulent counting in any precinct
in this county. The poll lists of pull
are too fresh in the memory of all to
allow of much open and palpable
fraud, if the state capital politicians
could commit any.

REPUBLICAN ATTENTION.

The Free trade--Gold Standard
Democratic New York Times is for
the election of Mckinley, the Protec-
ZIONIST! The Times knows that the
money question Is the all important
question now at issue, 10 comparison
with which questions about the
amount of foreign goods imported
into this country are the merest shad-
ows. To be SO wise as the Times, ev-
cry Republican, who disclaims the
gold standard, should be for Bryan.
There isan Arabian saying that a
fool is known by his always mistaking
his enemies for his friends. The gold
standard is the enemy of the great
mass of mankind. And the foolish
Republican, tomorrow, will be e,whO,
desiring the remonitization of silver,
yet votes for Mckinley and the gold
standard, in fear of the scare-crow of
free trade, and thus falls into trap
set for him by his enemies

and the establishment NJ Independ.
ent American Bimetallism will not
lay down their arms nor abahdOn
their organization. The consolidation
forces was necessary to make stand
for principle. The Democrat, the
Pupulist and the Silver Republican
who march together under common
flag on November 3, will not be less
patriotic or entitled to respect for
having laid aside partisan interests
and upheld the cause Of country.
Their efforts will not have been in
vain. They will have taught the
money power and the corporations
that they cannot reckon on the peo-
pie remaining divided off into minor
titles when their common interests
are assailed. BY the money power We
do not mean the legitimate banking
business. We mean the dictatorship
of wealth that is founded on special
legislative privileges and seeks i'm
properly to warp and force the pOlit-
ical organizations, the departments
of government, the people themselves
to do its bidding and increase its
usurped prcrOgatives. That power
has ridden upon the necks of the peo-
pie too long now. 1t will receive a
telling blow on Tuesday, November
3. But it will still be strong. 1t will
still resist the people. 1t will seek to
defeat their purpose to get rid Of It's
influences and it's unlawful
exactions. That battle must be
fought to the end in the state and |
nation or the American people will

their prosperity.

EDITOR JoURNAL.-There appeared
/ in the Oregonian OF October 10Th, an
article written from Albany, headed
"Resort 10 violence" saying that A.
G. Hough, a Republican speaker, was
grossly insulted and shut out of the
hall; and two ruffians swOre Repub-
| lican speaker could not speak In Lyons
and that, Mr.. Hough was insulted and
hUOted at when going TO the train the
next morning. Now 20 find out the
facts--that this great and brilliant
persOnage-was lnsulted; we asked
both Republicans and Bryan men In
this town, if such was the fact, and
we could not find a single person in
either ranks, who supported one syl-
able of it. 1t is malicious lie, got
ten up by Mr. Hough, or his little au /.
dience, which only consisted Of four
persons; put before the public at the
last hour of the campaign, to have
some effect upon the voters, and to try
to throw slur On the good people of
Lyons by such men as Mr.. Hough.
Last night we took vote as to
whether such a statement as the AL
bany letter was true, or any part
thereof, and it was unanimous. Votes
by at least 75 persons, that it was a
malicious lie; and so spread upon the
minutes.
The dancing party that was spoken
of in the letter, gave up the hall at
$3.50 p. m. to the speaker, notwith-
standing they had it engaged a week
before. We write this and wish you
to publis it, so the readers can see on
just what sort of Infamous lies, the
mark Hanna crowd is trying to make
votes for themselves. A drowning
man will catch at a straw when he
can't touch bottom.

Mckinley, because he represents a

had much to say about his visit to Texas,
Arkansas, Florida and Georgia, and he
predicts that all of these states, excepting
Florida, are sure to 90 for free silver.
He says there is some doubt about Florida
as the people of that state are not as
fully aroused on the money question as
they are in the other border states.

Tillman, 1T is Is to l or bust Every

canism on the other"
