PERSONAL EXPERIENCE.
(Continued)

Olap JACK Oar, MluQlo FORK o.
the American River, September
%, 1850. ] have not written il
my journal for several months, but
it sutficeth me to say that we have
had the painful duty Of buryine
three of our brethren since coming
into the mines. Brother Flake
was thrown from his mule last MAY
and killed! [ sat up part of the
night by bis dead body, when the
watch relieved me l went to bed
and dreamed that he came to me
and told me that when he fell his
head struck the ground doubling
him forward, at the same time put
ting his hand on his breast and said
"what killed me is in here"
September "a. Brother Rich
came to our camp and said he
wanted to send some of us on a
mission to the Sandwich Islands,
and one to Oregon. He then laid
his hands on the following Elders
and set them apart for the above
Missions, namely; Thomas White,
Thomas Morris, John Dixon, Hen
ry ". Bigler George Q. Cannon,
William Farrer, James Keller and
James Howkins, for the Islands,
and Boyd Steward for Oregon.
He stated that elders Clark and
Blackwell would go with us to the
Islands and that Hyrum Clark
would preside over the mission,
etc. This turn OF things by us
was not looked for, and for one,
/ felt much disappointed in my
calculations about going home
soon, but asthe Lords ways are diff
ferent from mans, all felt it was
for our best good.
Here [ will write a dream that
elder Cannon had about this time
[ will give it in his own words, as
near as memory serves me. E[e
told it one morning while at break
fast. He said Il dreamed last
night that L was in q room where
President Young and the Twelve
were, and they wanted to ordain
me to some Office. What that Of
fee was is gone from me but I felt L
could not fill an office Of that
magnitude. President young said,
yes, you are the very man; and
they ordained me, but to what Of
flee [ do not know, and l wept.
After this [ found myself on one of
the feetest animals Imaginable and
had message to carry and was
travelling over very rough road.
There were hedges and bitches,
high fences, rocks, and logs in my
way, and whenever l came up to
them under full Roadway the hair
on my head seemed to raise and
stand erect, but every time / came
up to them my horse jumped over
them and landed me safely on the
other side"
Of late years 1 have often
thought of this dream. To my
mind it was true one, and / leave
your readers, Mr. editor, to put
their own construction or give
their own Interpretation Of the
same.

MACHINE METHODS.

In connection with the meeting OF
delegates from Republican clubs
throughout Oregon held In Portland
today, as in all such affairs, the
temptation for making money out OF
the delegates is not wanting, and so it
is now proposed that each Republican
club shall pay per capita tax Of ten
cents q member to keep up central
organization in Portland. The plan
will not work. 1t should be voted
down and no doubt will be. II costs
individual delegates enough to have
to pay their individual expenses TO
and from Portland, to attend the con.
vention, without their having to call
on their clubs for from $40 to s25 for
dues. One delegate from county
would be about the representation
that would be sent under those cir
cumstances. The ten cents for dues
should be voted down.
1t will cost the average delegate $40
to attend the convention. The ten
cent per capita tax would cost the
Salem club 800. 1t would net the
Portland managers $1,000 to 5000 a
year and the taxpayer would have to
pay IL all back in some form or other.
1t is nothing but machine rigmarole.
Vote it down.

RAILROAD PASSES.


-
The new constitution OF the State
OF New York prohibits the acceptance
OF railroad passes by members OF the
General Assembly and by State and
municipal officials. Any person
elected by the people or appointed to
Office Is prohibited under severe pen
atty from accepting free transporta-
tlon. In addition officials of trans
portation companies are also prohib-
tied from issuing passes TO officials
Asa result the free pass business ma
been virtually destroyed in the state
OF New York, and the last heard OF II
was contention by notarles public
that they were not, in the meaning OF
the constitution, State officials. But
II we are not mistaken, the Supreme
Court held otherwise.
Il lsto be assumed that the framers
Of the Constitution in that state dis
covered in this free pass business
system dangerous TO the interests OF
the public. Otherwise there would
have been no ground for the adoption
in the fundamental law Of that ex-
treme provision.
The Assembly OF the state of Quo
is now In session, and there are synp-
toms already Of the agitation Of this
free pass business, as applied to the
members OF that body. IL is probably
true that nearly every member has a
full supply Of free passes. 1t is not to
be taken for granted that these So
called favors influence the votes OF
members on questions affecting rail-
road interests, but the practice Is a
dangerous one, lnasmuch as IL opens
the door to temptation, and prejudices
the public, Public sentiment is over
whelmingly opposed TO the practice.
The prohibition should not be con-
fined TO members Of the General AS
sembly, but should apply to every Of
fetal elected by the people or In any
way appointed TO office.
An esteemed contemporary has
made the statement that railroad
President said he controlled the last
legislature with railroad passes. But
railroad men, like all other people, are
very full of fwhat we call human ma.
ture, and they are quite liable to use
this mild system OF bribery In their
own interests. II the public will turn
their attention TO the operations OF
the law under which railroad property
Is assessed by county assessors, the
careful inquirer will find, II he cares
20 make the inquiry, that the asses
sors In question are loaded with passes
and that they can travel free of charge
not only In this state, but largely
throughout the country, One favor
is expected TO deserve another.
Now mark the result, Compare tn,
assessment OF railroad property In tn,
state with other states OF the Uulon
notably New York, New Jersey, Penn
sylyania and lndianna. IL may b.
said that these assessments, regardless
OF comparisons, are sandalously low
and when comparisons are made tn,
scandal Is magniaed immmensely anC

The islander. [volume] (Friday Harbor, Wash.) 1891-1899, 1896-09-17

THE New York World calls attention
to the fact that there are seventeen
states in the Union that have cleo
toral votes enough to determine the
election, with five to spare, if they all
vote alike. Their combined area is
only 4S7, 1865 square miles, or only one
seventh of the entire country. But
they are the most thickly settled state S
in the Union. their combined popula-
ton in 1890 having been very nearly
81, 900, 0OJ when the population of the
entire country was a little less than
63,O00,0O In the presidential election
of 1892 they cast 7,C72, 1906 votes, of
which 3,519,O16 were cast for the Re-
publican candidates, 3,4O9, 74S for the
Democratic candidates and 1852 for
the Populists. Their combined cleo
toral vote is 229 and 22i are necessary
for choice. These seventeen states,
with single exception, lie east of the
Mississippi and north of the Potomac
and Ohio. They are the six New
England states, New York, New Jer-
sey, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Mary
land, on the Atlantic coast: Ohio,
Indiana and Illinois, in the Central
West, and Michigan and Iowa to the
north.

the Apostle Paul, in his epistle to the
Hebrews, described as "the substance
of the things hoped for, the evidence
of things not SEEM" When the Bland
law was enacted i'm 1878, Obligating
the government to purchase $4,000 900
worth OF silver every month, silver WIS
worth i'm the markets of the world
SI.I6 an ounce. In 1889, when this
law was still in force, the price had
dropped to SO cents an ounce and IN
the following year an effort was made
to stop the decline by the enactment
of the Sherman law, which more than
doubled the amount of the government
purchases, absorbing practically the
whole American product Of silver not
used in The arts. The immediate effect
of this enactment was to produce
fictitious rise in the price of silver to
81 90 an ounce, or twenty nine cents
less than the price to which the
Bryanites say it would he forced by un-
limited coinage. Rapid increase in
production however caused the price
to fall to eighty cents an ounce in 1893
and its present value is only slxty-six
cents. No government stamp can
double the value of any product eff
fected by the great law of supply and
demand. Silver is so effected now and
it will continue to be until the great
commercial nations of the eartn agree
upon its unlimited coinage as money
at common ratio, and, further, to
maintain all the silver money so coined
at a parity with gold. The Republi-
can party is pledged to do its utmost
to bring about such an agreement and
there is not the slightest reason to fear
that it will break its faith with the
people, as the Democratic party has
repeatedly done.
