By all means the express companies
should pay the stamp tax on shippers
receipts. The railroads have decided
to do this, upon originals. The ex-
press companies should do the same.
The companies get the money resulting
from the business. The intention of
the law is clear regarding the matter.
The internal revenue commissioner has
given his decision. 1t is wholly I'M
worthy, and very poor business policy,
on the part of the express companies
or any other corporations, to seek to
escape the war tax in any such way.
The shippers should certainly win
every test case.

gods. 1t has been demonstrated
that the Oregonian's conserva-
tisn is nothing but lack of en-
terprise; its anti-yellow journal
ism, ::otling but stingy laziness;
its reliability. nothing but slow
ness.
The Oregonian has preached
its own superiority so long that
belief in that papers infallibllity
has become one of the superstl-
tions of the average web-footer.
Nothing short of war would
shake that superstition but a war
is doing it.
When the Tribune published
an account of the Maine disas-
ter one day ahead of the Oregon

muttered 'Tisn't SO, or the
Oregonian would have had it. y
When the Tribune one morning
told us of the DeLome letter, we
cried "fake," because it was not
i'll the Oregonian that day. But
our confidence was shaken.
Then last Sunday when the Trib-
une told OF Dewey's splendid
victory over the Spaniards at the
PHILIPPINES with not a word III

lished, a hulniliating conscious

NO CHALLENGE.

Mr.. Corbett wishes to be Uni

naturally supports his ambition.
For, as the Oregoniau itself
quotes, "the OK knoweth his
owner and the ass his masters
crib"
This paper has no lysterical
desire to measure lances with the
Oregonian. Righteousness of
cause does not always compen-
safe for inferiority in size aEd
strength and :, combat between a
country weekly and a city daily
would be more funny than seri-
Gus. But the desire of the Ore
gonian mortgagec to be U. S.
senator concerns the people whose
patronage, as subscribers and ad-
vertisers, supports the GAZETTE.
and i'll its own way and in its
own field the GAZETTE will dis,
cuss Mr.. Corbett's candidacy and
the Oregonian's methods of sup.
porting him, with the utmost
candor and freedom.
If the Oregonian is noticing
the comments of this paper, that
is its own foolishness. It's praise
or censor awakens only contempt,
for we know how we'll it CAN af.
ford to be silent.

Mr.. Nichols Plain Answer.

The Monroe correspondent last
week claimed that certain repub-
licans did not keep an appoint
meni to debate the money ques
ton with silver men at Monroe
and offered as an explanation the
curious and really amusing sug-
gestion that the republicans OF
south Benton are perhaps not in
accord with the administration on
the financial question.
Mr.. Nichols in the following
letter, effectually silences the
critic, and adds bit of common
sense that is refreshing.
MONROE, May 2, 1898.
10 THE EDITOR A word of ex
planation from the republican
standpoint with regard to the pro
posed discussion at Monroe of the
money question: may not be out
Of place.
The time limit for each side, of
three speakers, was to be one hour.
Conscious that the whole range of
the money question could not be
touched IN speech of 25 minutes,
the three republican speakers of
whom [ was one, positively re-
fused, from the beginning to en-
tertaln any financial question
more extensive than the one sug-
gested by the state republican
platform and upon which hinged
the last presidential campaign, VIZ:
"The single gold standard versus
the free coinage of silver at the
ratio Of Is to ~
On Tuesday evening preceding
the Friday evening upon which
the discussion was to take place
| went to Monroe purposely to
see if their speakers would meet
us Oh the issue of Organism ver-
su: McKinleyism. The man
took TO b. their spokesman gave
me to understand they would not,
when he said: "Unless the whole
money question is up l shall
have nothing to do with it," He
wanted a large ring full of trees
and caves for the combat. Fur
ther, no definite statement OF
what the populist speakers thought
the question ought to be, was even,
to my knowledge, communicated
to the republican speakers.
Little wonder that he did not
want to discuss, before an audi
ence of farmers, a question that
has already been settled for them
by all administration in which the
people have the utmost confidence,
