! The st. Louis GIobe-Democrat esti-
mates that the expenses Of the two po'
litical conventions, for each Of the polit.
ical parties, TO he held IN Missouri this
year will cost s5,OOO,0o0, or E2,5O0, ,00C
each, and that the expense Of the CAM
paign in the state will be another $1,000,
900, making the election expenses for
the year $40, 100000. This It thinks IL
not extravaganza, nor is II monay vast
ed. But it ID more than eight dollars
apiece for every inhabitant Of the state,
or about $40 for each legal voter.
The republican party in Multnomah
county is in q deplorable condition. 1t
is divided into two factions, with Joe
Simon and his following at the bead Of
one faction, arrayed against Mayor
Frank, District Attorney Hume, John
Mimic, James Lotan and Jack Mathews.
With such leaders there 10 little to en-
courage the honest element in the party.
Every one Of the leaders on either side
isa professional politician, who is IN
politics for revenue, and is as corrupt as
Judas. There is an old saving however
TO the effect that when thieves fall out
honest men may prosper, which affords
a hope that Multnomah county may not
be turned over, body and soul, to either
Of the opposing elements. A set Of Off
GERS may be chosen who owe allegiance
no neither of these factions.
We are gratitied TO note the disposi-
tion Of some OF our eastern cotenIpora-
ries To stand up for "man's best friend, !"
the horse. In another column we quote
from the Chicago Record words which
will be cheerful TO horsemen. In the
past 40 years we have seen the horse go
aud come three times. From 1857 nn-
til the war broke out there was no mar
ket for horses. The war caused an in
crease in price and the market was good
until 1873, when there was another de-
cline. Prices recovered and we're good
until 1893, when there was another de-
cline, since which time the export trade
has been the life of the market. From
past experience we look for an upward
tendency now. The effect 81 the bicycle
upon the horse market has been greatly
oyerestimated. The slump was the nat
ural result OF the depression that affect
all edother lines Of business.
The makeup Of ticket can, in a
large degree, be determined by the re-
suit at the primaries, and it is OF vital
Importance that representative citizens
who will vote as they think and are not
subject to the control Of any clique, be
sent to the county conventions. The
man who stays away from the primaries
Is neglecting duty, the performance of
which is as necessary as that OF voting
at elections. Another thing voters
should keep in mind is to select only
such delegates as will surely attend the
convention. The proxy system is
fraught with dangers, and by 1t The will
Of the people in the locality from which
the proxy Is sent is often defeated. No
man should be chosen a delegate unless
he has interest enough in the party and
community to cause him TO attend the
meeting of the convention. Let repre-
sentative citizens be chosen to name
tickets and let only those be elected who
are certain TO attend. In this way the
ends Of good government will be served.

declared your nominee for the Of
fee Of United States senator. Per-
nit me te express to you my CRATE
full thanks and to assure you tha'
l hope to merit your confidence by
earnestly striving to do my duty.
"As l declared many times du-
ring the campaign, which I had
the honor to address you, l am the
candidate of no faction and | re-
cognize no difference between Re
formers and conservatives, but
honor you all as Democrats. | have
appealed to you to lay aside all
factional differences, and III cast
ing YOUR votes to consider only
your duty to the State as Demo-
Gratis, conceding to no man the
right to control you and submit
ting TO no dictatiou. The result
shows that you have not been in
fluenced by prejudice; that you
have laid aside factional differ
ences; that you have asserted your
manhood and have been influenced
only by your duty to the State.
"For many years [ have labored
to heal the breach in our ranks
and to restore good feeling among
our people. Sometimes | have al
most de.paired that this would be
accomplished, but the result OF
the election gives me new hope.
Indeed, l believe that q new era
has dawned upon our State, and
that the future gives promise that
our people will hereafter consider
men and measures solely upon
their merits and will be influenced
by no other consideration. God
grant that this may be SC.

gratulate you upon the electio" of

scientious gentleman, who has

ise will be faithfully kept, and

that you have conferred upon me,
and invoking Divine aid in dis
charging the important and respon-
sible duties of the Office to which
1 have been nominated, am
