General weyler opens his career in
Cuba with.a series OF proclamations in
tended to strike terror to the patriots
and to all who sympathlse with them.
He sweeps away all civil procedure
and sets up a high court of the sword.
He proclaims his right to do what he
pieases to whom he pleascs, and his In
tention of exercising his right without
appeal and without mercy.
He may succeed in frightening nom
combatants who sympathise with the
patriots, but his proclamations, fiery as
they are, will not brighten the men in
the field. They are already rIsking
their lives to make themselves coun-
try. weyler cannot do more than take
their lives from them.
To make Roadway against the armed
cubans. weyler will have to whip
them. They are aware that 1t is his in
tention to leave nothing undone to ac-
complish their humiliation. But they.
too, have purpose; which is to fight
WUlle tuey HhNo III HlS thtA
to fight with. Nothing is changed by
weylers proclamations except the
spirit in which the war is to be wased
on the Spanish side.
Unless weyler can catch the cubans
In the open It is difficult to see how he
can make mora Roadway against them
than campos made. II Gomez had con-
sented to pitched battle campos
would probably have defeated him.
The success of weyler's plan turns on
the probability of getting the Cuban
commander where he cannot strike and
run and must stand battle.
While he is trying to bring this about
the Cuban climate will so on rcrtiliziaS
the Cuban soil with Spanish bones.
Recognition by the United States of
Cuban beiiigercncy would give weyier
something new to think about and
would double-shut every Cuban gun
and nerve every Cuban arm for holder
execution with the deadly machete.

THE FARMER AS A CHEAT

Farmers think the silver standard
will not hurt them, because they do
not work for wages and because they
own few securities TO shrink In value.
They think they occupy happy posi-
tlon between the lab0ring man and
the capitalist, where they can profit
at the cost OF both, paying both the
farm laborer and the mortgage cred
ltor in money Of half value, aud sell
Ing their products for twice as much
nominal and the same real value as
now. Even II they pay double nomi-
nal value for all they consume, they
think they will stlll gain by cheating
their two classes OF creditors, the
money-lenders and the workingmen.
-Oregonlan.
This is iammlng the farmer pretty
hard.
How many Oregon farmers Will
swallow the above from Oregon's
only metropolitan paperY
How long will they keep on taking
paper that calls them cheatsY
Farmers do work for wages and are
their own paymasters but are getting
poor pay for their time and have n
right TO complain.
II farmers could make wages at
their own work they might possibly
be able TO employ labor and pay
wages.
VIII the Oregonian tell the public
how the prices of farm products can
be stopped from sinking lower aud
lower under the gold standard9
VIII IL tell us how labor can be EN-
ployed unless farmers can make
enough of the land to pay wagesY
Now laborers are all driven into the
city or 10 tramping ON the road
When enough are idle under the gold
standard there will be revolution.

rs HARVEY SCOTT oRAzY9

People from fresh green country are
likely TO oyerestimate their powers
when they start out to astonisn the
world. IL is thus not surprising that
the bumptlous hoy orator has be-
come practically sDeechless after ais
penslng populistlc ideas OF hnance
from car platform for two days at
the top OF his very lusty lungs ana
that his unsophistlcated, country
bred wife "shows evident signs OF ex-
haustIon" as she essays to take the
pushing, curious, perspiring throng
by the hand individually and smile
upon It collectively In fresh, winsome'
glrlIsh fashion.-Oregonian.
Those green country people Mr..
and Mrs. Bryan Of Nebraska, stand in-
finitely higher in the opinion OF
Americans with the least bit OF COM
mon sense than the author OF the
above.
Harvey Scott is so in the habit OF
setting down people who dc not agree
with him as crazy that he has gone to
the verge OF insanity himself If the
above paragraph is not written by an
insane man he deserves contempt for
his insulting fling TO country people.
IL is high time an American born and
bred, with an "unsophisticated coun-
try-bred wife" took possession Of the
White House and rescued this coun-
try from the blight and gangrene OF a
city politician.

ucts now as in 1910. But he proves
, from the figures of The Aldrich SEN
ate committee That the purchasing
power OF wages with all articles Of
ordinary use, including meat and
bread, which are surely farm products,
stood in 1890 at LIZ as compared with
SI.I in 1915. From one point OF view
a days labor buys the same amount
of farm products as 1t did fifty years
ago, while from another point IL buys
over twice as much. Truly, there Is
nothing in the round world like
figures in the hands of an expert.
He also tells us that, ''just prior TO
1860 one days labor would buy three
pounds of coffee or eight yards of
calico or one-half pound of tea, while
It took five days labor TO buy pair
of thick boots" He should stop TO
consider that this proves nothing un-
less we reckon on how many more
yards of calico or pairs of thick boots
can be produced now by one days
labor with improved machinery than
could be produced by one days hand
labor at that time. He might also
profitably inquire into the wearing
qualities Of the calico and thick boots
OF those days. 1t is hardly necessary
to remark that comparative prices Of
tea and coffee are worthless in this
for they have been affected
by too many influences on which it is
impossible to figure. In any case, Mr..
Moores might be more convincing II
he would go back only % years for his
statistics, instead Of 10, 80 and 60
years.
Now let US have little fling at the
much bombarded Mr.. johnson. The
goldites seem greatly disturbed be-
cause the bimetallists haven't all
rushed into print with assurances to
Mr.. Johnson that hlS salary Of $40
per month (for doing two mems work.
would be instantly doubled by Bryan's
election. If we we're as good at prom
Ising and pledging as our Republican
we should undoubtedly do so,
but, strangely enough, even at the
risk of losing a vote, we prefer to tell
the truth. If Mr.. Johnson salary is
liked and Interchangeable at $40 per
month for the rest of his natural life,
then his purely selfish interests are
with the gold standard. IL lie is
liable to ever lose his job; II his
salary Is subject TO either reduction or
Increase, and the law Of supply and
demand will cause his wages to bear
about II certain relation to those of
men Ia other occupations; If he
wishes to invest his surplus in any
thing but bonds and mortgages; If 1t
would be worth anything to him TO
see the country enjoying genuine
II any of these things are
true, then he is in the wrong pew, If
he signs any Of the blanks which the
companies are sending to their
employees for the purpose OF finding
out who among them can be depended
on as good gold standard suckers.
