Keep the Record Straight.

The bund scandle uf Mr.. Cleveland'S
administratio is well known. How he
enriched the Morgan syndicate by
making it the security OF the govern

gotten. The result was just what ev-
cry bi-metalic democrat said it would
be. 1t was just what every ordinary
man with common sense knew 1T
would be. 1t brought on panicky
times, a stringency of money, contrac-
tiou'of values and:a comparative In

ADDRESSES DEMOCRATS.
The Former Presidential Candidate
Makes an Important Speech
Gist of Remarks.

Chicago, July 20.-W. J. Bryan at.
rived here Saturday morning to attend
the large democratic picnic at Brands
park In the afternoon, where he deliv-
cred speech. Many other prominent
democrats were also in attendance.
The subject Of Mr.. Bryan's speech was
1.-THE Democratic IDEAL" He defined the
term and said: ut is impossible to fol.
low one ideal a part of the time and an
opposite ideal the rest of the time; 50
with the party, there must be constant
effort to apply the same principles and
the same methods to all questions and
issues"
He scored the republican party, say
ing 1t was openly allied with organized
wealth and obtained its control by the
unlimited use Of money.
He said that il there was ever an OPP
perfume time for the preaching of dem
ocratic gospel 1t was the. present, and
that the party must appeal to the dem.
ocratic sentiment OF the country. He
said the party was Handicapped just
now by the fact that the last democratic
administration was more subservient to
corporate dictation than any republican
administration that had preceded it,
and said the record Of that administers
ton had been milestone about tho
party's neck ever since. In conclu-
sion he said II they met the issues a.
hand by standing on the side OF the
people and protecting their rights, 4
victory could be won which would not
end like the victory Of 1892, in defeat,
but one that would build up an organ
ization which would have the confidence
OF the masses.

JAN g.
1.-THE senior editor Of this paper
has gone on an eastern tour for some
clandestine purpose, and it is to be
hoped by all "loyal" people that he
may never return to infest us with
his "vexatious" presence. There is
considerable speculation and just APP
prehension as to the secret object Of
bis absence for SO long a time, as he
avowed he would be gone several
weeks, and perhaps before returning
would visit the SACRED Soil and con-
fines of rebeldom. The object Of all
these secret moves and hypocritical
sayings are not fully understood by
many of us who keep an eye single to
his business, and feel as though II
we're on duty as "loyal citizens" to get
a clue to these mysterious affairs. We
are justified in this, we think, from
the fact that his conduct since the be.
ginning of our present national diff
culties has always shown that his SYM
pathies are with JEFF Davis and the
cause of the rebellion, and moreover
has always proven himself q danger.
Gus man in the community. And now
the object of this pretended visit &c
the east would appear ominous te
every scrutinizing eye. Whether it is
to avoid the draft, or whether, per.
chance, he has procured travelling
agency for that filthy sheet, the New
OREGON PLAIN DEALER; or prompted
by some malicious spirit, he has gone
to consult with the Prince of Rebels
is yet an unsettled question in oul
minds; but whatever the object, we
