Republican campaign speakers
are now at work all over the state
impressing on the minds of the
people the Importance of the
presidential election now so close
at hand. When we think of the
happy conditions now existing in
the Willamette valley, with ev-
erybody happy and prosperous, it
would seem unnecessary to re-
mind the voter of his duty, yet
it is a historical fact that in times
of great prosperity we often lose
sight of the fundamental princi-
piles which produce these condi-
tions and often go to sleep to
have "a rude awakening as ex-
emplified in the election of Cleve-
land in 1892. 1t would seem
strange indeed if, in the light of
past events, men would walk up
to the polls and vote to change
an absolute certainty of home and
happiness to one of perplexity
and doubt, yet such will be the
case. Many of our democratic
brethren fear the consequences of
Bryan's election, but blinded by
party prejudice, will walk up to
the polls and vote for him, for
getting home, family and friends
for the one single, simple thought
of being a democrat.

stituted no legislative steps in all this

In 1920 the savings banks of the
United States held $1,l3S.576. This
was poor country then compared with
now. The amount was only an average
Of - cents for the population Of that

is an average for the whole population

their credit. In 1924 only $685. per-
sons i1 the country were rich enough to
have a savings bank account. Now
there are s.5SS,S11.
When James Buchanan, the last
Democratic President in a long line.
went into Office there was about $780,
100000 in the savings banks of the
United States. By 1870, after fighting
out the grea. war, the l,eople, under
Republican rule for twenty years, Lad
$3.50, ,OOO0 900 in the savings banks. When
the next Democratic President took his
seat in 1888, the savings of the people
had passed the billion point. By 1898
the savings had doubled again.
So there it is. In 1920 there were
only about 5000 people rich enough to
have a savings bank account Now
there are over 100000. In 1920 the
savings were IL cents per capita; now
they are over S42.
That the poor grow poorer and the
rich richer in this country is as true
as any other Populistic notion.

now we got Cnem demand OF
him an abstract of title to the
Filipinos, and he cannot show
even a quit claim deed from any.
body who ever had any authority
to make it.
In this as in so many other ut
terances Mr.. Bryan proceeds upon
the insolent assumption that his
hearers are stupid fools who can
he tricked with p phrase or de-
ceived with a statement of half
truth. No other candidate for
the Presidency ever tried to mis-
lead the people so persistently or
so ofenslvely as Mr.. Bryan has.
He attempted it in 1896 and was
hit squarely between the eyes for
his insolence. He made another
attempt in 1900 and was beaten
into the dust for refusing to heed
the teachings of experience. He
is trying it again this year, and
history will repeat itself.
Mr.. Bryan knows that the
American title to the Philippines
is just as good as the American
title to the territory embraced in
in the Louisiana Purchase. He
knows that the American sover-
eighty. in the islands is just as le-
gal as it is in Texas or Nebraska.
He knows that the Filipinos
themselves belong" to the Uni
ted States in exactly the same
way that the Porto Ricans do.
The United States acquired the
Philippines partly by war in
which Mr.. Bryan himself took a
more or less heroic part, and
partly by purchase. They were
ceded to the American govern
ment by a nation whose title to
the territory was recognized by
all the nations of the earth.
There was no organized authori-
ty in the islands save that of
Spain, and when it was over
thrown there was no government
in the archipelago with which
as to the control of
the territory could be undertak-
en-. We had to negotiate with
Spain or nobody, and those nego-
tiations, ending in the Treaty of
Paris, gave the United States a
title TO the Philippine Islands
which has never been disputed
by shallow doctrinaires of
the Bryan type.
Mr.. Bryan's whole policy with
respect to the Philippines has
been a policy of deception and
false pretenses. He has tried to
deceive the American people into
the notion that we have no law
full right to hold the islands. On
the other hand he has pretended
to the Filipinos that public senti-
ment in the United States was in
favcr Of giving them immediate
independence. He encouraged
them to continue in armed revolt
against American authority by
deluding them with false prom
ises of American support, and to
his pernicious influence must be
charged much of the loss and dis
tress they suffered in prolonging
a struggle which Mr.. Bryan
should have told them could end
in only one way.
Mr.. Bryan's record on the
Philippine question is both incon-
sistent and discreditable. He,
has sought to deceive his own
countrymen and betray the Fill
pinos. History will write him
down as a sham statesman who,
instead of helping to clarity one
of our most momentous nationa
problems, has basely endeavored
to pervert and befog it.
