Bishop Turner for Bryan.

Bishop Turner, who is at the head OF
the African Methodist church in the
United States has declared himself for
Bryan for President In letter which
gives his reasons for this action he says
he "is for Bryan for president because he
represents the same broad principles
that Abraham Lincoln espoused, aud |
believe il will be for the benefit Of my
people to cote for him. As Abraham
Lincoln was a friend to the colored race
so is William Jennings Bryan"
"All OF this silly sentiment OF adhering
TO the Republican party because Of Lin
coins proclamation Of emancipation is
misapplied. The Republican party of
Lincoln and the Republican party of
Hanna are distinctly things apart. Lin
coin is dead, but his principles of per-
sonal liberty still live and verify the
mantle of Elijah never fitted the should.
ers of Elisha as perfectly as Lincoln's
mantle fits the broad shoulders Of Bryan.
Lincoln never barbored a trust. He
never believed in governing without the
consent of the governed. He never be-
lieved in grinding down the rights and
privileges Of the common people. He
never failed to accord honor where honor
was due. Now, how can any one recon.
cile the PARTY principle of Hanna and
Roosevelt.
"In its treatment OF the colored man
the Republican party has always mas
queraded as a wolf in sleeps clothing
S.nce that party claims to have freed the
slaves its managers have constantly lied
to the colored man. When Lincoln died
Republican honesty to the colored race
was inferred with his bones and an era
OF Republican moral degeneracy began.

Political Challenge.

A. w. Prescott special 70 Oregonian,
Chairman w. S. Mott, of the Marion
County Democratic Central Committee,
published letter, challenging Chairman
f 7. Wrghtman, of the Republican
County Central Committee, to furnish
speakers for joint political discussion,
DR.. Mott suggests Saturday evening,
October 8, as a suitable time for such a
discussion. Mr.. Wrightman said when
his attention was called to the challenge
that the Republicans are willing to meet
their Bryanite opponents in joint debates
on the issues Of the coming election,
and he will see what can be done to
arrange for such discussion.
The great difficulty will be TO find a
suitable hall. The armory is now the
largest public hall in the city but it
would not be nearly large enough to hold
the audience that would try to crowd in
to witness battle of argument between
the Republicans and the Bryanites. An
other difficulty is that some of the lead.
ing Republican speakers have already
arranged dates for addresses in distant
parts of the state. DR.. Mott said this
evening that his idea is that the debate
should be confined to local speakers.

We are now in the midst of winter,
il one can call il winter when everything
looks green and the flowers are in bloom.
Still it is quite cool and raw and for the
last two weeks have had much rain.
When the sun shines II is delightful,
My cook was taken with grip right at
the Fourth of July when was pre-
pairing for big reception. / had to get
in a new one who was no account. Some
Of my American friends lent a hand and
we got along all right. We had to get
ready for 250 but it was stormy and we
only had about 175. But it was quite
brilliant reception. All the government
officials came in their gold lace and
swords. My lady friends were in even
ing dress and wore my black silk and
steel lace with violets. We had a cold
collation. in the dining Dom which opens
into the sala, as they call the parlor
here. The flowers we're handsome and
had palms in the corners, etc. Many OF
the callers staid couple of hours, they
enjoyed it so much. Indeed it was said
by the old residents TO have been the
most brilliant reception the Americans
have ever bad here.
All Of the diplomats celebrate their
country's days by reception, and il is
surprising how many days" there are.
My husband has now gone to the
Swiss legation in the pouring rain. Yes
terday he had 10 go to the Italian min
lister and say how sorry he was about his
king. l will have to do likewise this
week and attend mass. There are so
many Italians here that there was great
excitement and nearly all the store were
closed, but they do that at the very
smallest pretext.
Willie can speak Spanish fairly we'll
now and understands French quite
little. have my French in quite good
working order now. The language Of
the corps is French, though the most Of
them speak several. Marchioness Mala-
spina speaks and English SO well you
would hardly know she was foreign. SO
she at first talked 10 me in English, but
now they all talk French to me, and
have got all my old facility back OF
speaking IT, Count Rakoisky does not
speak English, and he usually falls to
my lot at dinner. lie has been a great
traveller and is consequently very good
company. lie tells me all about his life
in Persia and Hindostan, and | talk
Oregon to him.
This is the most expensive place |

or any city in the United States.

children next May or June, to put them

"After the Republicans, seeking to

all the American colored mans troubles

men made way for liberty and died in
the civil war. The gallant ninth cavalry
rode 100 miles through the binding

the beleagued seventh from an Indian

has decided 70 increase American mill
tary forces in China to about 5000
men. Regulars ordered 10 the Philip
pines, IL is understood, will be diverted

the situation materially improves.
Japan has officially notified the

nese troops 10 China will be increased
TO $4,000 men. 1t is said that 10 600
Japanese troops have been dispatched
to Taku. Russia is said to have &C.
quiesced in this action of Japan. Eng
land has given official permission and
no objection has been raised by any
European power. The foreigners in
Tientsin say they owe their lives to the
gallantry of the Russians.

the international troops are being
closely pressed in Tientsin. 1t ia indi-
Gated that the allied force 10 Tientsin
may themselves need relief. Each day
it becomes clearer that the abandoning
of the relief OF Pekin was a necessity,
as the Tientsin forces are scarcely capa-
bic OF holding their own in their present
position.
James Watts, a young Englishman,
with three Cossacks, made heroic ride
from Tientsin to Taku with messages
for reinforcements. They were under
fire large part of the way.
