tration to oppose the bill and con-
sequently floor leader in the house
Dingley, launched the bill on its
way to defeat Chairman of the
public lands committee, Lacey, of
Iowa, who drew the bill and origi-
nally supported it, and who is a re-
publican opposed it on its final
passage, eXcusing himself Oh the
ground of the amendments extend
ing its provisions. All good re-
publicans were expected by the ad-
ministration to support its policy
and defeat the bill. AS the Ore
gonian says of that great and good
mand Carlisle of Kentuckey, as
we'll as others. They say things
to the people in campaigning that
when it comes to putting into law,
their sober Judgment recoils."
This is a necessity with the re-
publican party, as their policy has
got to be one of monopoly-fasten-
lug, people distrusting heavy taxes,
discrimination and deception.
1t has lost all democratic spirit
and seeks TO rule the people through
their weakness and folly, rather
than depend on their Intelligence
and ability.
Restriction of metal money 10
gold, Bank monopoly of ali credit
money, retirement Of greenbacl;s
bonding the nation, sale of public
land, large internal revenue ta%s,,
all get their support from the re-
publican party as we'll as any other
measure leaning hard upon the
people. The income tx, silver
money Government credit money,
/ free homes and all measures in be-
half of the people must secure their
support elsewhere. The republic
an party does not believe in The
wisdom and Intelligence of the
people. is not in sympathy with
them, and only regards them as a
source OF revenue and physical sup
port.
/ Recognition of the Cubans was
forced upon them. When the
blood Of 200, 900 non-combatants
besides those killed in battle cried
aloud with a voice no longer to be
ignored, then the republican party
took up the cry, and cried il reply
Oh Lord, thou knowest how we
lowest thee and thy cause!
The republican party knows
nothing about the harsdhips of the
homes;eaders. They believe that
every dollar dug out of the people
is SO much gained for public OF pri-
vate ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, that the peo-
pie are lot of incapables. There
may be some truth in their posi-
ton. There may be two sides to
the question. The people may be
incapable OF self control and COOP
Grafton in government. But right
or wrong, / am for the people.
The man who votes away the inter-
ests of himself and fellows, to plu-
tocratic parties and corporations
may not be tool, bnt he is some
thing worse, traitor.
I, for one, will not vote for the
party opposing the free settlement
of public lands, opposed to the use
of silver as money, or opposed to
the government control of currency,
credit and banking.

A HOMESTEADER'S LETTER.

Editor LEADER: Before the
campaign closes, 1 desire it to be
prominently placed before the Siletz
Homesteaders where the response
bility for the defeat of the Free
Homes Bill belongs. In 1896 the
platforms of all the parties declared
most distinctly for free settlement
of the public domain. The repub-
lican platform stating. owe be-
lieve in the immediate return to
the free homestead policy of the
Republican party and urge the
passage of the act now pending"
(The Lacey bill which was defeated
by republican oppositlon).
The bill after long and unneces-
sary delay caused by the action of
| Speaker Reed of the House who
upon its return to the house from
tie Senate with an amendment ex-
tending its provisions, referred it
again to the committee, where it
remained until the war excitement
developed and its defeat became
sure. The senate, who by the way
despite the fact that they are not
elected by direct vote of the people,
have for MANY years proven them
selves much superior body of
men 10 the lower house, more in
sympathy with people and far less
by the corrupt lobbie3 that irfest
Washington, i'll pursuit of legisla-
tion for the beneht of monopolies,
the Senate passed the bill with on
ly 10 votes against it. The house
defeated it by majority of about
40. No vote by roll-call was TAX
en-, as presumably members did not
want to go on record in opposition
TO the platform on which they were
elected. The bill is now an amend
ment to the Indian appropriation
bill where ii was placed by the in
dustrious efforts of Pettigrew of
Dakota and other friends in the
Senate, but the defeat now is GER

in its behalf by any republican.

about the bill. In reply he sent
me a copy of, as he put it, "one of
the numerous free home bills pend

a homestead. He evidently did
not know of the Free Homes Bill
which takes off the tax of $1.5o
! per acre or all Indian reservation
lands and is the most important to
Mr.. Tongue 5 district OF any before
| Congress. There have been,
think only the two (not very mum
erous) relating t. homesteads, be-
fore this congress. Mr.. Ellis of
Oregon wrote after action had been
taken on the bill that the western
delegation voted solidly in its sup
port, but the Oregonian claims
that western members who claims
to have been "hounded" into sup
porting the law for opening Indian
reservations against their judgment
opposed the bill.
Dingley of Maine and Sherman
of New York republicans led the
opposition in the house as directed
by the administration. Secretary
of the Interior Bliss, merchant of
New York City, whose knowledge
of the merits of the bill was taken
from his department ledger, was the
most effective opponent of the bill.
He figured the amount of public
lands affected by the bill, assumed
that it would all be sold and claim
