A Fight for a Very Doubtful Homo.

The OregOniam takes exception to
the claim made by Goidbug John
Sharp Williams, in the St. Louis Con-
vention, that the gold basis was estab-
lished "not by the Republican party,
but by the logged persistence and in
domitable will of Grover Cleveland"
1t seems little strange that an act,
which, at the time it was consummat-
ed, was of such doubtful expediency
that neither party approved OF it until
the mercenary bargain WAS made be-
tween Wall street and the Republican
party, and was even then accepted
with a string to it, that the party ia
vOriug bimetallism should insist upon
an international agreement before an
irrevocable acceptance, should now be-
come an object Of pride md conten-
ton, unless, indeed, our government
has passed from patriotic to purely
mercenary level. 1t is quite proper,
however, that the act which consigned
Grover Cleveland to oblivion is now
acknowledged to be the result of the
"dogged persistency and indomitable
will" OF that traitor to bis party. The
Republicans are welcome to wrsngle
with Democratic goldbugs over the
prestige gained by the UNANIMOUSLY
stealthy manner in which bimetallism
was dethroned at a time when it en-
tirely upset property values and robbed
many poor man OF his heritage. The
party has been paid for its cold-blood-
ed bargain and Cleveland WAS elected
to second term in recompense for
the secret betrayal of the interests of
the masses. Let it 60 at that. Let
them divide the honors," or fight q
Kilkenny-cat fight over a division Of
the "spoils." Honest, patriotic citi.
zens may view the conflict with perfect
composure.

WHEN THE CATS AWAY Ere
This venerable adage was illustrated
at Spokane, one night last week. 1t
seems that the wives and families OF
many OF Spokane's social circle had
gone to Summer resorts, leaving poor
old hubby to plod along alone under
the weighty cares of business. 1t is
not strange that, under such circum-
stances, there might have developed a
disposition to take day of for recre-
alton, nor is it at all strange that the
mind should have reverted to accounts
OF those forbidden pleasures in for
eign capitals where music, wine and
women are the accessories for a high
revel. One OF the Spokane papers
declares that Spokane business men
and sporting women were boon COM
panions at the French Ball" ar
ranged, and that five dozen quarts OF
champagne supplemented ten kegs of
beer in a wild orgie that followed, in
Turner's hall. The party broke up at
daybreak, and most OF the women
rode home in and on top of hacks, and
bestride the horses, while sober, digni-
fled and hitherto very commendable
business and professional men paraded
the streets in punches, singing
1--WE won't go home till morning
And daylight does appear"
The only moral we can append to
this acceunt-which is dished up in a
much more piquant manner than this,
even in the staid old Oregonian-is
that wives should not subject, by their
absence, poor, weary minded and jaded-
bodied hubby to the seductive wies of
the two Ws.
