ABOUT BROKEN PROMISES.

The national Republican commit
tee sends THE JOURNAL advice how
to conduct our paper during he clos
ing week of the campaign. The cir
cular says:
at has been suggested by th' Sc who
recall the promises made By the nem
ocrats at this date four years ago ant
who also remcm5 Der the depression anc
destitution which Immediately fol-
lowed their success at the polls, show
ing the want and suffering which re-
suited from the acceptance OF theiI
pledges in the last presidential cleo
tiOn."
That is very true. The first vi
those pledges in the Cleveland plat
form was to restore the gold and sill
yer coinage Of the constitution, the
use of both gold and silver as stand
ard money, both to be coined at the
mints without discrimination against
either. That was the most import
ant promise in the platform Of 1892.
How has it been kept? First thing
Cleveland did was TO stop all coinage
of silver, by repeal of the Sherman
law. In his message calling congress
in special season for that purpose he
declared it was necessary to stop
coming silver or our gold would go
abroad and confidence could not be
restored. We stopped coming $54,-
100000 silver year, but more gold
went out of fight and across the
water than ever before, and we meyer
had so little confidence as since the
repeal Of that law.
Cleveland violated one OF the first
and most important pledges made to
the people and inaugurated Il financial
policy that has not been fair
to silver and his financial
policy has been repudiated at each
succeeding election, and it is now
condemned by the platform which
Mr.. Bryan is running upon. Does
the Mckinley platform contain one
word of condemnation OF the Cleve-
land financial policy or into failure to
keep its financial pledge?

From the Field.


Special TO the Journal:
HARRISBURG, Oct.S-It is amusing
TO note how assidiously the Oregonian
Jries 10 create the impression that
1r. Mckinley is gaining ground in
Oregon. Banker Cusck, of Albany,
IS of the opinion that Linn county
may be carried by Mckinley, but
Mr. Davis, the well known Republi-
can politician and merchant Of Shedd,
A brother of County Chairman Geo.
". Davis, said Sunday that sail this
Oold about Mckinley carrying Linn
.Ounty is Internal foolislness.
At Harrisburg we are goodly in
formed that Marion county "will re-
deem ITSELF" and in Marion county
we are told that Lane county is
going to be carried by Mckinley, but
J. G. SUlin Ia Republican, and r. T..
Snodgross Ia Democrat) who have
been buying stock in Lane county,
report that In a six days tour among
the prairies, but one Mckinley man
was found. And they made diligent
inquiry in order to satisfy themselves
as to the political status Of those
whom they met.
Somehow Mckinley strongholds,
where "the Bryan men are on the
run" are always just ''little further
on" Like the fellow who was look
ing for good fishing, after travelling
over the entire earth he found that he
had always been from thirty to forty
miles behind the "best place"
The Southern Pacific Railway Co.
is sending out tons Of literature to its
employees, and IL is understood among
railroad men that they can best sub
serve the interest Of their employees
by voting for Mckinley. One of these
men, who wears 'sound money"
badge, said to me: ut is one thing
to lead a hSrse to water, bat it is an
other thing to make him drink"
There appears to be general un-
derstanding throughout the country
among local leaders of the Mckinley
men, that the Republicans are not to
attend free silver speeches. This rule
is strictly adhered to. On the other
hand, the free silver men all go to
hear Republican speakers, and then
the Republican press votes the
large crowds which "flock
to hear their speaker" as indi-
cative of Republican sympathy.
The fact, that if the silver men would
act as the Mckinley men do, the aver
age Republican speaker would have
small audiences.
/ am of the opinion that neither
party is gaining much strength. Each
party may gain in some locality few
votes, but majority of the people are
now "Sat in their views" The free
silver men have this in their favor.
There are many Bryan men who are
"sawing wood" These include rail-
road men and those whose places are
mortgaged. But whenever Mckinley
has vote, we know of it. Those fell
lows are not Saving wood, ;" but they
they are making all the noise possible.

variations in the need of money the paper
went on to consider the evils which might
be expected to flow therefrom. The first
effect apparently is to cause alterations of
high and low reserves. From these alter

formations of ease and strong energy in
the loan market and from these later in

The general conclusion of the paper was
