Oregon Returns Show That They Elect One
Representative in Congress.
PORTLAND, Ore, June 5.-Returns and
corrections received here show that Ellis
(Rep) has plurality of 65 over Quinn
(Pop.) for congress in the Second district.
Complete returns are still missing from
three counties In the First district mis-
take was discovered in the count in Yam
Hill county which reduced Vanderburg's q
Pop vote In that county by 900.
This, together with partial returns from
Curry county, gives Vanderberg plural
ity Of 100 over Tongue (Rep.). In both
districts 1t will undoubtedly require the
official count to determine the result The
count in this city Is complete. Pennoyer
for mayor has plurality of 2 1884 in q total

The Democratic state CONVENTION closed
yesterday afternoon, after the free silver
mon had secured everything in the oreani-
eation, as well a. In the platform. The
resolutions not only instruct the Kentucky
delegation for Senator Blackburn for pres
ident, but also for the unit rule, 30 that
the two delegates from the Louisville dis
trict will have no voice whatever at Chi
cago. The free silver men have the four
delegates-atlarge, and all the other dele
gates except the two from the Fifth dis
trict The more radical ones wanted the
committee on credentials to unseat enough
delegates in the Fifth district to change
the selections, but with the unit rule this
was unnecessary. The Kentucky delega-
tion stands twenty-four to two, and under
Its instructions for Blackburn and tho
unit rule 1t Is the same as solid.
Read 'Em Some Political History.
When some gold men protested against
the ironclad Instructions they were cited
to the case in New York when thirty dele
gates from that state were against Cleve-
land at his first nomination in 1884, and
under the unit rule the whole vote was
cast for Cleveland, and again at the last
Democratic national convention 1t was
cast as a unit for Hill. Blackburn and
Hardin We're free silver running mates in
the last campaign. Rhea and Ellis, the
other two delegatesat-large, have been
the leading stump speakers in the free sill
yer canvass which closed last Saturday.
They are exceptionally brilliant orators.
Nelson, Rothwell, Hallam, and Carroll,
the alternates, were also prominent for
free silver In the canvass, as were Tnrvin
and Smith, the candidates for electors.
From expressions among the Kentucky
delegation it Is learned that their second
choice for president is Bland.
Features Of the Last Day.
There was not great deal Of excite
ment at the closing session of the conven-
tiOn. Everything was too one-sided. A
feature Of the day was a speech by Colonel
Breckinridgc, who told eloquently why he
did not subscribe to the free silver idea.
The platform report was an elaboration Of
the points given in these dispatches yes
terday and was adopted with a whoop. C.
X. Wheeler, of Paducah, was the perma-
nent presiding officer Of the gathering.

cratic state convention met in this city.
John Burke, of Polette, was chosen PEI
manent chairman. The committee on
resolutions reported favoring free coinage
Of both gold and silver, which was adopt
ed. The delegates to Chicago were in
structed to vote for free coinage of both
gold and silver at the ratio of 16 to /, and
to vote for 9 candidate for president who
would stand on that platform. There
were about 125 delegates present. John
d. Benton attended the convention as a
spectator, having refused to act as dele
gate on account Of Its silver complexion.

The Popullst party now finds it
self IN the middle of a very bad fix.
The masses of the party was opposed
to endorsing Bryan, but while they
were at home at work the bosses went
St. Louis and formed a combination
with the Democrats by endorsing
Bryan and nominating Mr.. Watson
for Vice President. The result will
be that the Populists will 60 all

their ticket of Bryan and Watson and

A MATTER OF EXPERT,
ENCE

In the campaign of 1892 the argu-
ments produced by Democrats uphold'
ing their free trade theories, were en-.
tirely theoritical. They were great
theorists. Republicans said the viii
son bill would inevitably bring disas.
ter and distress.
The Wilson bill has been passed
and the reople are now experiencing
its results. There are no theories
about it now. 1t has been proven
that it will not make wheat sell for
1925 per bushel; that it will not all
vance wages aud give laboriug men
constant employment. Ga the 9TH
err hand, wheat is lower than ever
before; laboring men are getting re-
duced wages, it they get wages at all;
all business interests have been injur.
ed fearfully.
How difficult the actual result of
the Wilson bill, and the great benefits
we derived from it. Before its pas
sage people were mislead and deceiv>
ed by false statements and promises.
They thought they would better
their conditions. A little of expo
perience of a Democratic tariff has
brought the people to their senses.
The Chicago platform acknowledges
that Democrats have been in error,
and that the Wilson bill is not sufh,
cient to supply even enough revenue
to run the government. 1t says:
"Until the money question is settled,
we are opposed to any agitation for
further changes in our tariff laws, ex-
cept such as are necessary to meet the
deficit in revenue, caused by the
adverse decision of the Supreme
Court on the Income Tax" Here is
an admission that we must have
higher tariff laws. Thus it is that
Democrats are placed in the humill-
ating attitude of acknowledging that
all their theories were wrong. 1t is
not necessary for them to admit that
they were wrong. Experience, which
is the best of teachers, has convinced
everyone beyond reasonable doubt
that the Democratic idea of q tariff is
LITERALLY erroneous. The Wilson
bill is now a matter of experience.
The Hartford republican. (Hartford, Ky.) 18??-1926, 1896-08-07

seeming increase OF silver sentiment
among the people. 1t is an unhealthy
growth. Many men are now favora-
bly, disposed toward the free coinage
of silver, because OF sheer ignorance
as to the meaning Of free and unlim>
tied coinage OF silver at the ratio Of
10 to When its meaning is ex-
plained when its dangerous tenden-
cies are exposed; VIII, II the light OF
logic and reason IS thrown upon 1t, It
will at once begin to lose ground. 1t
cannot withstand the light Of reason.
Appeals to passion and prejudice, and
sccialistic sentiment, are what silver
orators are depending on to carry the
day. They are mistaken If they
think this will win before the Amer.
lean people. The Republican party
has never in its his tory stood in such
a favorable attitude before the people.
But the facts must be shown.
Republicans have not as yet enter.
ed earnestly into the campaign. They
will do so in due time. however, aud
then the Chicago platform will be
shown up in its true colors. 1t is a
monstrous idea that the American
people should be asked to indorse a
platform so wholly unamerican They
will not do so, but on the other hand
will rebuke it as no other platform
has ever been rebuked. Meanwhile
let Republicans perfect their arrange
ments in order that campaign Of
education may be thoroughly inaugu.
rated aud completely carried out.

HARD TIMES AND pagE SILVER.

Cheap Money Productive of Commercial

The Clarksville (Tenn.) Leaf-Chron-
icle has the following:
There is not firstclass commercial
country on earth now that has free coin
age.
There il not free silver country ON
earth that has as much AZ five dollars
per capita In circulation-oll kinds of
money.
''There Is In circulation In abe United
States SEA per capita, or $3.50 more
per capita than any free silver country
on earth.
ave have more In circulation to-day
than ever before. and more per capita
than any free silver country on earth.
"0ur dollar will buy more sugar.
coffee, -four. meal, meat. medicine.
hardware and clothing than In 1879.
"a barrel of corn, a busbel of wheat
or 100 pounds of tobacco will buy nearly
double as much OF the articles that
farmers consume as the same kind of
corn, wheat or tobacco would buy In
1873.
THE wages of the labOring man will
buy double as much OF the necessaries
of life now as In 1873, and his wngcs
have not been reduced oDe-tourth as
much as the purchasing power Of his
money has been increased"
All Of the above propositions we as
sort without the feAr of intelligent con-
tradiction. Then, II It. be a fact that no
free silver country on earth has as
much as Ave dollars per capita; and II
IL be fact that we have about SEA per

more silver in circulation per capita
than any free silver country In the

chasing power of our dollar is now
about double what II was In 1873. and
that the products OF the farm will pur-

REPUBLICANS OF the 4th Congress =
al District must remember that Hon.
Jno. w. Lewis has been re-nomlnat-
ed for Congress and is now in the
field. His opponent has not yet been
nominated. Mr.. Lewis has made a
splendid record in Congress and
should be returned to serve his peo-
pie. He has always been found at
his post of duty, and especially ought
he get a good vote in Ohio county for
the interest he took in getting Rough
River navigable. He stands to-day
representing his people as they have
never been represented before, ever
watchful of their interests and has no
equal in the entire District.
