Senator Corbett Rose From $3.50 Per
Week to Millionaire.


Henry w. Corbett, who claims a
seat in the Senate from Oregon,
is a self made millionaire. He help
ed to build the State of Oregon.
The other day New York news
paper reporter asked him all bout
the West, and this was part of
the conversations:
"Is it really possible for poor
young man TO make a million in
these days?"
II do believe so," said the Sena-
tor. Go into new country. There
are always new sections in which
to locate. BE industrious, self-de.
nying. frugal, saving. Save some
thing every month. Lean only tell
you my own experience: / came
to New York City in 1914 and
worked one year for $3.50 week
in store at Catharine Street and
East Broadway. slept under the
the counter nights and saved 81
every week. The next year | went
into wholesale house at $3.50 a
week and kept on until rose TO
$500 year. When / had managed
to save 81 900 1 went West. The
firm backed me. When came

$4,000 with them had chance
to go into the firm. / stayed in
New York for one year and decid-

The Storm Central over Ohio.

Ohio has become the storm center
of national politics. Lines for the
coming fall campaign are now be-
ing drawn. A senatorship is at
stake, to say nothing about the
turning down of Mark Hanna. The
carrying Of Ohio by the Democrats
would give an impetus to the silver
cause of the most signal character.
1t would assure free coinage ma
jority in the next congress beyond
all doubt, and be regarded as an in
dication of II change in public sem
timent whose influence would reach
into the next presidential election.
Let no one suppose, however, that
Ohio can be taken out of the Re-
publican column without struggle
of the most desperate character.
The fact that the campaign is al
ready organizing indicates the de-
termination with which the battle
is to be fought.-Denver News.

IT seems to be authentic that
Drs. Campbell, Aplin and Beery
are recommended for pension ex-
aminers by General Grosvenor.
Drs. Lyon and Blosser were turned
down. DIR. Mansfield we learn was
not a candidate. We congratulate
the successful doctors, and believe
no better appointments could have
been made, but why DR.. Lyon, com
mitteeman from the Fourth ward,
whom we oryears have been fight
ing in principle and who has al
ways worked hard in his ward for
his party, and DR.. Blosser the
hustler of the second ward for the
Republican party, should be turned
down we are unable to understand.
Surely the great General is un-
grateful.

SURELY disappointment of the
postmaster at Logan is the slowest
turn on the job. The daily papers
had 1t last week that Grosvenor had
decided on Vickers and would
send in his name with the next
batch for confirmation, but we do
not see any confirmation recorded.
Could it be that the big soldier
petition that was sent in has de-
layed matters. This slowness is
painful,

IT IS a conceded fact that a tariff

The Ohio Democracy.

the party been so strong in numbers
and in faith as now.
Last year, for the first time with
in generation, the national Dem
ocratic convention issued a pro-
clamation of faith worthy of its
past, and giving assurance of its
future. For thirty years and more,
insidious influences have been
polluting its best sources and
poisoning its health. For the past
ten years it had entirely fallen un-
der the control of plutocracy in its
worst forms. One year ago it still
had vigor enough to free itself
from this domination and assert it.
self as the champion of freedom,
justice and equality before the law.
1t not only rosolutely proclaimed
its purposes for the future, but it
acknowledged the degradation of
the past.
The Chicago platform oflast July
is the expression of a political
creed worthy of Jefferson and Jack
son, and all the saints in the Dem
ocratic calendar. 1t is 6 protest
against all the accumulated wrongs
which for thirty years have been
growing under unjust and unprin-
cipled legislation.
Upon that platform they nomi-
mated one of the ables', most up
right and courageous men the
modern world has known. 1t is
doubtful if the century in any part
of the woi Id has produced another
man as wise, as upright and as
just as William j. Bryan. With
habits Of life as simple and pure as
those of Lincoln and motives as un-
selfish, he is student Of the past
and present and the greatest public
orator America has produced.
His defeat endeared him to the
people who had plighted their faith
to his cause. Both he and the
cause he represents are growing in
public confidence every day.
The utter failure of the election
of Mr.. Mckinley to bring prosperity
has demonstrated that confidence"
as the sole element necessary to
promote and secure the public well
fare is a delusiOn and a fraudulent
pretonse. The people Of the United
States now know there is nomagic
in the name Of "MckinIey and
Protection" TO work miracles and
revolutiOnize the laws oftrade and
nature.
But what Of Ohio? Within SIX
weeks both the Democratic and the
Republican parties will meet in
state conventions and nominate
candidates for governor and adopt
platforms expressive Of party faith.
The Republican convention besides
nominating a candidate for COVER
nor, will endorse the candidacy Of
Mark A. Hanna for United States
senator If Mr.. Hanna can secure
control of the convention. This
will, of course, mean the endorse
ment Of the st. Louis platform, the
last Republican national campaign,
and the present national and state
administrations. All this will
weaken their campaign 10 follow
in Ohio, and render the. imperative
duty of the Ohio Democracy clear.
The national Democracy having
set its face to a better future, the
Ohio Democracy must not waver.
1t must reahirm all the planks in
the national platform of last year.
There must be neither lodging nor
shufiling. There must be nomin-
ated for governor a man of charac-
ter and ability who supported Mr..
Bryan with heart and spirit last
fail.
The action of the convention
must be such as to unite in one
party all who oppose the gold

MAXWELL STANDS FIRM,

The Mckinley Republicans of this
section are making strong claims OF de
se,tion of prominent silver men to their
ranks. Taking advantage of the absence
of Senator James P. Maxwell, they in
dustriously circulated the report that he
had gone back to the G. o. P. The ru-
NOR was not deemed worthy of denial by
us, although We felt assured of its falsity.
Senator Maxwell, who has just returned
from long and d trip to Steamboat
Springs, was exceedingly angry wnen
fusion Chairman Ward reported the
rumor to him Friday. In the strong est
terms he characterized the report as
false and absurd.

and despise the whole layout" said SEN
atOr MAXWELL. II am more strongly
convinced than ever that without free
coinage this country will enter a period
of endless and miserable depression and
you may count me Silver Republic an,

connection, but never a gold or McKin-
ley Republican"

tor Maxwell is Bryan Democrat. His

THE DEADLY PARALLEL.

The PoPulist organs are making a
frantic effort to boost their ticket along
omy. A labored editorial assumes TO
draw parallel in favor of Sue Callahan
and show the great savings she has ef-
fected to the county. The parallel is a
good thing, bu, often, like chickens. i,
incuoates other parallels. For instance,
here are some figures:
Office expense (Callahan) s5,4oS65
Office expense (Dantord) s4,7oS 50
Excess expense of Callahan over Dam
ford. soio.I5. These figures are for the
years 1884, and 1896, the year 1897 being
yet uncompIe;ed and incap lble OF calcu-
aton.
While Sue Galatians organs are pratt
ing of her great turnover to the county
treasury, it will be we'll to look at the
volume of business the office under the
administration of Hiram !. Danford and
Sue M. Callahan for the years 1894 and
$50 In the former We have OF instru-
me nts filed:
Danford, 4575
Callahan, $3.50
The difference in the turnover is fully
accounted for in the above figures, which
have been taken from the records of the
office for the use of the Camera, in order
that the people may know.
