AN INCONSISTENT ORGAN.

.
Several years ago, when Mr..
Mitchell was a candidate for SEN
ator, the Oregonian made the
most persistent and bitter fight
against him that could be waged
by newspaper against a man.
Nothing was too mean, abusive,
or dirty for it to say against him.
Its malicious venom knew no
bounds. Yet he was elected,
and has been elected still another
time. when the. Oregonian,
though hating him as bitterly as
ever, prudently restrained the
violence of its opposition. The
editor of the Oregolian, realiz-
ing the impotence of. the papers
rancorous enmity, has lately gone
into personal and practical poll
tics. He has joined the Simon
forces, and accepted a position as
a co-boss or sub-boss along with
or under Mr.. SiInon's standard.
Following the secretive and delu-
|sive tactics of that astutc gen
tlernan, the Oregonian pretends
that there is no fight against
Mitchell now; that economy and
lower taxes are the only matters
that it cares about. 1t has moth
ing but praise now for Mr.. Simon
and his followers, though its files
of a few years back would show
a far different opinion of them.
It might reproduce, for example,
its opinion of the manner in
which Mr.. Waldo was once
defeated for supreme court judge.
It is loaded daily with condem-
nation of the municipal and
county officers who are opposing
the Simon machine, yet has no
word of censure of Sheriff Sears,
who led the forces at Salem
against reduction of salaries.
Sears has gone into the Simon
camp, having been promised the
nomination for sheriff, hence he
is now an ally of the Oregonian,
and all his faults must be over
looked, and there is nothing
objectionable in his big salary
and fees during many long tax
eating years. In all this it is
apparent that the Oregonian is
absurdly inconsistent and insin-
cere. It has simply become the
organ of the Simon faction, anG
a part of the Simon machine for
the purpose of getting control,
for selfish purposes, of the city
government, and defeating Sena-
tor Mitchell. The Welcome is
not making the fight of any
republican faction sor candidate,
but the daily papers position
that all civic virtue resides with
the crowd which it has joined,
and that they are friendly to
Mitchell, is almost painfully
ridiculous. Portland Welcome.

THE American Protective Tar

honor of adding to its member
Fhip the Junior senator from Ore

cations for your esteemed favor

SAFETY ONLY IN VIGILANCE.

The republican party is dis
posed to assume too much on
account of its supposed majority
in the state and in this county.
Political 1najorities have pecu-
liar habit of vanishing upon
seemingly slight provocation, and
we had better realize now that
the coming election is not going
to be a yellow-dog-upon-the-
republican-ticket affair, than to
discover it after the votes are
counted. People have felt the
expense of government mofe the
past year than probably ever
before, and this has quickened
their interest in political matters.
Loyalty to their financial inter
ests rather than party fealty will
control their votes where they
conflict.
Republican control of the next
legislature is not assured by the
large number of republican hold
over senators nor by the large
majority in the last session. The
probable action of the taxpayers
league in Multnolnah county will
render the political complexion
of that county's delegation un-
certain. The fierce attack of the
Oregonian and a few other repub-
lican papers on the last legisla-
ture will aid the democrats and
populists all over the state. The
republicans of Benton county can
not afford to take any chances.
The republicans have a large
natural majority in Benton coun-
ty and they can elect the legisla-
tive and entire county ticket,
but the only safe assurance OF
success lies in the nomination OF
good men. One bad nomination
weakens the whole ticket. The
county ticket will be headed by
the legislative candidate and he
will bear most of the political
fight. Taxpayers will probably
be more interested, as such, in
the legislative part of the ticket
than in the offices that are wont
to monopolize most of the atten-
ton of the convention and cam
paign.
Let the republican convention
select its legislative candidate
carefully and after proper discus
sion-not hastily and as mere
trihe of its business. Let il
select a man who has the conf.
dence of the people; a man Of
good Judgment and good inten-
tions; man of force and char
acter-not a nonentity; a man
who is in touch with the several
interests of Benton county, who
can aid materially in securing
the needed legislative action in
behalf of these interests. Let il
choose a consistent republican,
who is not identified with any
faction or ring; who will follow
the instructions of the conven.
ton and his constituents. Il
will not be difficult to find sucl
a man, and such a candidate only
is assured of success.
Voters should discuss the mat,
ter at the primaries and at theil
other gatherings. Impress your
views upon your delegates to the
county convention and don't le'
one or two offices, important a:
they may be, usurp all the atten
l.

The San Francisco call., 1896-06-10
" THE GALL" AND THE FARMERS.

In a letter to the Stockton Independent
George w. Ashley, wheat-grower of San
Joaquin County and a member of the Re-
publican County Committee, reviews a
recent ed itorial of The CALL on the bene-
fits to the farmer of the protective tariff
and to some extent differs from our views
of the subject. He maintains the Lubin
theory that the wheat grower derives
no benefit from protective duties on i'm
ports and that to afford him protection
the Government should provide an export
bounty on wheat. incidentally Mr.. Ash
ley attributes to The CALL an antagonism
to the bounty scheme and says: "If THE
CALL wishes to speak for all it must get on
the right side with the farmer"
1t is certainly the wish of THE CALL to
speak for the farmer as we'll as for any
other industrious citizen of the Republic.
No class of workers do more for the Ma
ton than the farmers, and no class de-
serve more from it. We are most cordial
supporters of any movement that tends 20
their prosperity, but it is not yet certain
the Lubin scheme is calculated to do that
We are not antagonistic to the plan; Mr.
Ashley is wrong to that extent. We have
advocated bounty for sugar-growers, and +,
if conditions require it, are willing to ad-
vocate an export bounty for wheat. The
question is, Do the conditions require it?
The farmer has had an experience of the
difference between Republican tariff
and Democratic tariff, and the teachings
of that experience are in the minds of
every body. Under the Republican sys-
tenn OF protection the price of the average
farm products was about twice as high as
under the Democratic tariff. Surely there
was a benefit in the higher prices and
therefore there must have been one in the
tariff that caused them.
The Republican system of protection is
designed to benefit all Americans. In
speaking for that system THE CALL is
literally speaking for all. If any industry
of our people, whether urban or rural
needs the fostering care of the Govern
ment We are in favor of granting an ade-
| quate protection to it. Our attitude to the
export bounty system is not that of an
tagonism, but simply that OF doubt as to
It's expediency. A plank in favor of it was
incorporated in the Republican State Plat
form without opposition on our part, nor
would we oppose It If a similar plank we're
adopted in the National platform. We
aim to speak for all, but we do not claim
to know all. We desire full, adequate and
thorough protection TO the work, the wages
and the homes OF all Americans and what
! soever the combined wisdom of the Re-
publican party of the Nation may decide
to be necessary to that end will find in
IHE CALL voice to speak for it as it
speaks for all.
