Crumpacker’s Explanation.

The Oxford Press, the new republican paper in Benton county, aays: “We have been an admirer of Judge Cruinpacker and have considered man above the average ability. But we do wish he would either stop explaining bis vote on the annexation resolutions or stop running forxon gross. To make a long story short he voted just the way the republicans of the Tenth congressional district did not want him to vote, and the less he talks about the matter the bet-

torr dtiß commoh talk dbwn in this part of the political vineyard that his explanation is read the voters get a little sicker. The best explanation he can make is that he made a mistake. Nobody cares anything about his personal views. Republicans have a way of thinking that their representative should represent them * * * * Fpr ourselves we find po fault with him about his recommendations for office. Whatever mistakes he has made in this line we think were caused by recommendations made to him. But others, just as good republicans as we are, do not agree with us. In this locality there are many republicans that do not agree with Mr. Crumpacker on many questions, and will not vote for him, and the earlier the truth is told the better. A great many people consider William McKinley a bigger man than Thos. B. Reed.”

The war is now over, and the speediness and completeness of our victory, compared with the smallof our sacrifices, surpass the wishes of the most sanguine. The smallness of the loss of life is the especially noteworthy and most satisfactory feature of the war. The total loss of life, on our side, including deaths by sickness as well as by wounds, has been exceeding many a time by a single ocean wreck, or theater burning. Even some tornadoes in this country have cost as many American lives as this war, while the Johnstown disaster far exceeded it. The money cost of the war is also comparatively trifling. Say $100,000,000, which is about the amount of loss in the last big fire at Boston, and not half the loss at the Chicago fire. To the people themselves, in a business way, the war has cost .nothing. It has been no interruption at all to business of any kind, and for the most part a benefit.
