REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.

The following is the platform adopted
By the republican party Of oregon in
.s.s convention assembled, at Astoria,
TkHr-~ ay April Il, 1895:
the republican voters Of the
state Of Oregon, ip convention assem-
blef, congratulate the people Of the
state as well as OF the whole nation on
;he unmistakable fact that the dark
cloud Of adversely, which has hung like
a pail over our fair land. has been dis
sipated. We recognize that the return
Of prosperity is due to the restoration
Of the republican party to power.
we are in favor Of the maintenance
or the present gold standard; we are
unqualihedly opposed to the free coin
age Of silver and to all other schemes
boxing to the debasement Of the cur
rency and the reputation Of debt We
believe that the best money in the
world is none too good to be assured
By the government to the labOrer as
the fruit of his toll and to the farmer
as the price Of his crop. We condemn
the continued agitation ct free silver
rs calculated TO jeOpardise the prosper
ity Of the country and to shake the
confidence Of the people in the maiE-
tenancs Of a wise financial policy; we
particularly condemn as unpatriotic,
the efforts Of the free silver agitators
n array class against class and sec
ton against section; we declare that
the interests Of all classes and OF all
sections Of our country alike demand
a sJund and stable financial system.
While We Gcplore the imminence Of
war, We recognize that the country is
On the eve of a war. undertaken for
the yindication of the national honor
and the performance Of a work dictated
by every instinct Of humanity; we de-
clare that the administration Is en-
titled in this conflict to the confidence
and support of the entire people.
We are firmly attached to the prin-
ciples of the federal constitution; we
recognize that representative govern
mcnt is one Of these principles, and We
are opposed to any change in law or
constitution which will abrogate this
time-honored principle.
I'VE are in favor of retrenchment
and reform in state and county mat
ters.
I'VE demand strict economy in pub
lie affairs, and the abolition Of all
needless offices and commissions.
The salmon fishing industry, so
fruitful a source of revenue to the
state, should be fostered, and to that
end we favor state aid in the artificial
propagation of salmon, and their dis
trbution in the waters of the state.
We reaffirm our allegiance to the
principles of the republican party OF
the United States. as enunciated by
the republican convention in st. Louis
in 1896
I'VE denounce the fusion party OF
Oregon as an aggregation of spoils-
men, who are ready to subordinate
principles to offices. Each of the par
ties to this compact is willing to stul-
tify itself and form alliances with ele-
ments which 1t has heretofore de-
nounced as dangerous and unfit to be
intrusted with power; we declare that
good government cannot come from
such an alliance"

Rev. q. McNaill Howell.

EDITOR JOURNAL: or the forty
eight candidates on three tickets in
this county. one, Rev. B. McNaill
Howell. young Methodist preacher.
candidate for representative On the
prohibition ticket, has enlisted and
gone 10 the war. This is pratical
patriotism. While the other forty
seven candidates stay at home and
labor to secure all the votes possible
this one leaves bis pulpit and should
ers gun to help right the wrongs Of
an oppressed people and thereby "show
his faith by his works"
Now, fellow citizens, let US show
our appreciation Of this mans self
sacrificing devotion to the cause Of
justice by giving him our votes. Let
US show our appreciation as prac-
tically as he has shown .his patriotism.
But you say he may not return to
take his seat even II elected, and he
cannot be elected on that ticket.
True ne may not return to take his
seat II elected; but his empty chair
would be mute appeal for the rights
Of the people, which he would cham
pion If present-an appeal which
would exercise much needed infu-
ence on our legislators.
l say to my Republican friend and
TO my fusiOnist friend, you have tar
less worthy menon your tickets whom
you can well afford to drop in order to
demonstrate TO the public the esteem
you hold for the "boy in blue"
Respectfully,
HERBERT W. COPELAND.
THE JOURNAL dos not concede
that any Of the candidates on the
other tickets are less worthy than
the REV. B. McNaill How
ell" Not all can enlist, and it is quite
as patriotic TO contend for good gov
ernment at home as in Cuba, If IL
does not sound as big. Let US be fair
and just to all. Let us not seek TO
dlsparage any mans loyalty because
he stays at home and does his polit-
ical duty fearlessly. The national
guard men who failed TO pass a phys
lcal examination are just as patriotic
rs those who passed. The man who
fails to prove acceptable can still up
hold the government, no matter 10
which party he belongs. Mr.. Cope
land no doubt means 20 reflection on
any Of the other candidates aud we
mean no reflection on him or on Rev.
Howell. But let Us be just and fair
TO all men OF other faithl.

take hard close working TO make good
hops this year. There are enough
poor hops on the market TO last sey-

able 10 produce fine article may be
bankrupted. The hop crop is a PROB

1t is TO be hoped that lice will not
be permitted to gain Us much head

While Oregon turned out a good
many hops OF high quality last year,
we have been compelled To read and

OF the TaYages OF lice. IL the lice are
allowed 20 become numerous on the
vines the vitality OF the latter Is low
cred and the quality of'the hops pro-
duced must suffer. IL is a matter OF
common observation that mould most

be done more thoroughly. The

GEER AND THE MORTGAGE
TAX LAW.

10 replying 70 arguments 10 favor o.
repeal of the mortgage tax Law. Mr.
Geer said IN a speech before the Nc
Mlnnyllle Farmers Institute Jan
uarY, 1921:
"Tbe best Interests Of the stat
call loudly for tie retention ot tina
law"
"Our mortgage tax law Is no bar
rier 10 the coming Of any capitals
who really wants To pay his share ui
taxes Oh his property, and II he wants
to escape taxation, we do not wan
hin. Therefore / shall vote 10 re-
tain it on the statute tJoks."
But when the bill to repeal the
mortgage tax law Uss put on its pas-
-age Mr.. Geer voted to repeal the
Law.
Men like Kidcaid and Tilmon Ford.
who had capital ia lo4n, nppVsed re-
peal Of the mortgage tax law.
But the law was repealed with tn
all Of Mr.. Geer's vote, and exacus
what he said would transplre ha-
taken place. Capital owned by non
residents escapes taxation, while
capital borrowed Of people in Oregon
is required to he taxed.
According to the reports OF the
state hoard OF equalization, about
t4O,OOO,OO0 Of foreign capital that
used to pay taxes now escapes taxa
tlon and the only capital taxed is the
notes given in that are held by clti-
zens Of Oregon. Either tax all capl-
tai or none is just proposition.
There should be no discrimination in
favor OF the nOn-resident capitalists.
That Is what Mr.. Geer said at Nc
Minnyille, as above quoted. That is
what he said on the canvass 10 Marion
county when asked by the oranges II
ne favored repeal Of the mortgage tax
law. He pledged himself as opposed
TO repeal, aud then as a member he
voted with the Portland bankers to
repeal the mortgage tax law in favor
Of foreign capitalists.
Men like Ford and Layman IN the
house with Geer voted against repeal
lag that law. They we're men who
paid more taxes than Geer, who loaned
money, but who as Republicans had
pledged themselves TO stand by the
farmers side of this question and they
kept their pledges.
On the stump Mr.. Geer always en-
dorsed Mr.. Ford's sentiments IN this
question but he could not resist Port
land influences IN the house as Mr.. Ford
did. As governor Mr.. Geer would no
doubt veto bill TO re-enact the mortg-
age tax law. He might not. But we
feel certain OF Mr.. King on this point.
His record is the opposite Of Geer's.
King would net follow the dictates Of
the foreign loan companies that now
escape taxation while no Oregon capt.
