Prosperity or What.

Every train on the S. P. brings
up from fifteen to twenty men VINO,
failing TO find work in California
are coming to Oregon in search of
the Mckinley good times. These
gentlemen are unable to pay their
fares so they ride mostly in box
cars. This immigration, coming
just previous to an important state
election, may have a significance
that will be more apparent after
election. The fraud of sc may be
repeated.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

President Mckinley submitted
his long delayed message on the
Cuban question to Congress last
Monday. The message is some
what voluminous, and is extreme e.
ly disappointing. 1t takes no de-
cided stand upon the question of
Intervention, and in no instance
does it refer to the freedom of Cuba
from Spanish misrule. Nc way or
method is pointed out or suggested
by which the terrible condition in
Cuba is to be brought to an end
and permanent peace established.
Indeed so far as the president has
demanded from Spain that country
seems to have conceded, and the
general expression among diplo-
mats is that the president has got
the country into a very embarass-
ing position.
The message treats the blowing
up of the Maine and the murder of
the brave Americans on her as an
incident" and seems to attach no
particular Importance to it. No de-
mand for indemnity or for repara.
ton has been made. 1t seems to be
the policy of the president to con-
slider the Maine murder of minor
Importance.
The message is strongly criticised
by republican members of congress.
Senator Foraker, of Ohio, is great
ly displeased with message and
said, 81 have no patience with the
message and you can say So" 1t
is described by another member as
"a waste of words"

A Washington dispatch says that
Speaker Reed has poured out his
soul to one of his intimates of the
house, on the whole Cuban situa-
ton. "The senate is a monde
script, said he, land will do as it
likes; but the house is supposed to
be republican, and the country and
party would naturally expect it to
follow the policy of the president,
and 1, as speaker, could hardly be
expected to lead a revolt. 1 don't
know whether the house can be
held in line or not. 1t looks as
though the boys would get their
heads and run away, but it is moi
the easiest task to hold them to al
administration which stands for six.
teen wobbles to one positive action
This expression by Reed is the snb.
ject of much comment about the
capital tonight.

There we're tricks galore at the
republican convention the other
day. One of them was to have the
chairman Of the convention appoint
the chairman of the county central
committee. We suppose that the
inference was that the committee
were not able or qualified to ap-
point their own chairman. The
trick was killed off, but it was
tried.

TONGUE REN0MINATED.

At the republican congressional
convention at Eugene last Monday
Hon. Thos. H. Tongue was re-
nominated by reclamation, there
being NJ other candidate for the
doubtful plum. The convention
was devoid of interest.
What a skillful politician may do
in the way of building up his fen
ces" is illustrated in the renomin-
alton of Tugue for congress by &C
clamation. Two years ago when
Tongue put up the combination
that defeated Herman there was
wrath in the district, and open
threats were made by republicans
in great numbers. So strong was
this revolt that Tongne only Sc
cured the Office by a bare pluralality
of 60 votes. Tongue went to work
to pacify the kickers and he has
evidently succeeded in doing so, as
he had no opposition in the conven
ton. This was done largely by
the shrewd use of federal patron
age, presen- and prospective.

Our friend Mr.. B. F. Swope, of
this place has SHE'D his castor in
the ring, SC to speak, and has chal-
lenged any believer in free silver to
discuss the question in a friendly
joint debate. Mr.. Swope is a new
man to this county, and may be a
very fluent political spell binder,
bnt for all that the silver forces of
the county will be pleased to put
a man up against him, and will
make the arrangements as soon as
possible. Mr.. Swope informs us
that his idea is that the matter is
one that should be freely and fully
discussed in a friendly manner with
a view of enlightment on the i'm
portant question. We fully agree
with him as to that, and say that
we believe that we do not misrepre-
sent the silver people when we say
that they also seek enlightenment.
In fact, if they are wrong, the
greater portion of them are reason
able men, and if the truth is presen-
ted to them in the proper manner
they will see it. On the other
hand, they believe that the single
gold standard means contraction.
and contraction means widespread
ruin If a joint discussion will dis
cover the fact that to increase the
value OF the product to be measured
by the dollar, then a new principle
in economics will have been dis
covervd. Meantime, as we say,
the silver people will choose some
one from among their orators and
the joint discussion can be had.
