THE TARIFF IN BRITISH COU'MBIA.
Within ihort time, and tlint too rIdco
Canada Imposed a duty on all import,
victoria alone nai tncrea'ed its papula-
tion by about 33 per cent., after
years and years of stagnation. Enter-
print, flovtmoer, 8.
In British Columbia the burdens of a
high tariff are causing vexation of spirit.
Before annexation to tho dominion,
; whan Victoria was a free port, number
less craft were In bcr barbor. All the
country back of that port was supplied
from thence, and money was plenty.
Now gloom has overcast the lace of the
merchant, for business is suffering.
Every month, says a revenue officer re
cently stationed at Victoria, $100,000 col-
lected as revenue are sent to tho Doniin.
Ion government. BritUh Columbia is in
this manner drained of money, and it
inhabitants obtain actually nothing in
. return for the outlay. They might with
more benefit to themselves throw every
month $100,000 into tho ocean, as they
would not be restricted in trade by the
sacrifice, as they ore now by the tariff.
British Columbia has nothing to pro
tect. Free commerce with tho world its
exigencies demand. It imports a por
tion of tho flour it consumes, and butter
in Victoria is 50 cents tho whole summer.
. The island of Vancouver, on which Vic
toria is situated, contains a restricted
area that is fit for cultivation, and so
does the mainland ; bat, generally speak
ing, British Columbia is not a funning
country at the present, and its manufac
tures amount to nothing. Cattle and
horses do well on its high and granny
plains and fish teem in its rivers : coal
and valuable ores are dug fropi its mines,
and Its extensive forests abound with
valuable wood. But beyond coal, orc(
, nan, cattle and lumber, British Colum
bia has nothing to sell, but a thousand
things to buy.
The high duties are one of tho main
causes of the incipient rebellion against
the Dominion government which is now
being agitated In Manitoba and the
Northwestern portion of the British pos
MMlom. Our neighbors- ucimm - the--toordw
are similarly situated as wo arc.
W wav sana e4 what we couinme In
Cr protected market, and sell, wljat we hav
to sell, in a free market In competition
with all the world.
Since the completion of the Northern
Pacific, the condition of the merchants of
Victoria baa becomo much more favor
able. Before, the 'merchandise which
came in Bond from the Eastern portion
of BritUh America cost 13 per cent, of
its value for freight, commissions, etc.
They had then, as now, no duty to pay
on Canadian goods, and the duty on di
Net Importations from England arc nom
inal, but this ia an advantage of small
account, as little importation direct from
Europe is done in Victoria. Flour, veg
etables and fruit are obtained in quanti
ties from San Francisco, and the house
wife it obliged to pay a high price for bor
turnips and cabbage to protect the
rancher in the suburbs.
Th San Francisco Examiner casti
gates California farmer for parking
apples la a deceptive manner. This
tract from the article will bo appro
priate reading in CVkamrtH county.
It fully states how not to pack apples :
The men who send these deceptive
boxes of apples to market first put a lavcr
of carefully selected apples at the bottom
. of the box, which is to bo the top when
'""""pened ; then comes perhaps another
layers good or nearly as good, and then
he dumps a lot el scrubs in and nails oti
the bottom. Tha farmer evidently be
lieves that he is receiving a good price
lor all hi poor fro It by this means, but
n is mistaken. The good layer on top

TRADE AND COMMERCE 1.1 PORTLAND.
Trade In Portland is already undergo
ing the metamorphosis consequent upon
the opening of the Northern Pacific. The
partial isolation which her wholesale
merchants havo enjoyed is at an end
Profits are becoming smaller on account
of sharp competition, and the long ( red
its granted heretofore to deulors will
cease, according to the Oregonian, by
commencement of next year. Long
credits to the farmers will undoubtedly
be curtailed in consequence. They will,
in turn, got moro than even In buying
their goods cheaper. Tho wholesale
men are preparing for the coming
change. Mr. Dittendorfcr, wholesale
tobacco, will retire, .and three other
wholesalo houses will very probably fol
low suit. Drummers for Eastern houses
arc numerous on the Coast, and it would
seem as if the influx of Eastern capital In
tho near futuro wilt be such that only
men with ample means and rare skill in
business will be alilo to continue iu the
wholesale trade with profit in Portland
The regular rctui) trade in Portland in
staple goods of moderate price is not
little injured at tho present by the large
lot of goods that ro on the market at
very low prices from the three stores
that have closed up. Storekeepers In
Oregon City are likewise affected by tho
batch of miscellaneous goods that are
being sold at auction prices at Barlow's
station. The short crops, also, affect re
tail trade seriously. The fanner is
obliged to measure the outcome by the
income from his farm. In general,
stores with small capital in tho metropo
lis, paying the high rents they do, are
obliged to rustle to make something,
Groceries, especially, on account of the
credit system, do a great deal of "rotten"
business.
San Francisco experienced a revulsion
in her wonted prosperity immediately
u'tcr the completion of the Central Paci
fic, and we may expect ourneiglilxr will
undergo the same fate, unless her many
rich men are willing to learn from the
experience of others, and have besides
enterprise and sufficient public spirit to
do whut tho citizens of Pan Francisco
have done, establish factories of various
kinds and gather what wealth they can
from the four points of tho compass by
merchant shipping. But here is another
obstacle. As long us a vessel drawing
25 feet of water cannot safely cross the
bar except at high tide, with a favorable
wind, Portland cannot hope to coin'
peto with spots more favored by Nature,
on this Coast, for the worlu s trauc. Li
spite, of all tho Oreijoniun may suy about
Portland's advantages and opportunities
as a seaport, the stern fact remains that
in the opinion of scientific men of gtxnl
judgment ond of practical sailors tiie bar is
an obstacle to the freo navigation of the
Columbia to deep water vessels that is
well nigh insurmountable. The passage
is dangerous. An extra per ccntago of
to enter the bar. Sometimes, when, the
wind blow Iroiu .tho land, vessels are
obliged to lie off the mouth of tho Co
lumbia for several weeks before they can
safely venture among its sand bnrs,
winch shift and change in a violent
storm.
PAYING THE CONFEDERATE DEBT.
The Confederate bonds afford a weak
excuse now and then, to Republican par
tisans, for waving tho "bloody shirt."
They say that when the Democratic
party, controlled, as it would be, by the
solid South, comes into power, it will
undoubtedly pay the Confederate debt,
and that the low market value of these
bonds in the English murkct is founded
on this belief. How groundless and illu
sory such talk for political effect Is, Is
easily proven by two short extracts from
the Constitution of the United States. In
Section 4, Article XIII, of the Amend
ments, we read :
Neither tho United Status nor ant-
State shall assume or pav miy debt or
obligation incurred in aid of insurrection
or rebellion against tho United Mates, or
any claim for loss or emancipation of any
slave ; hut all such debts, obligations,
and claims shall bo held illciml and
CAliroBmss art entering largely into
whaling. The Pacific Steam Whaling
company has Incorporated with a capi
tal of 12,000,000, and the Arctic Oil
Work company with a capital stock of
11,000,000; this company will have a
large refinery In active operation at next
season's catch. There are, doubtless,
promising facilities for this lino of busi
ness In Oregon, and its competition with
California for the oily wealth of the
Northern seas will before many years be
realised fact.
FroBABLY one-halt of the population of
Massachosetu are factory oiorati vcs. It
is a foregone conclusion that a portiou of
the proprietors of factories charged their
help to vote the Republican ticket,
which alone account for Butler's de
feat. Besides, the majority of Robinsou
was awelled by the unstinted use of
money in the purchase of that vagabond
element which k neither Republican nor
Democratic nor Working-men which
hovers on the ouUkirto of ail parties and
which is ready to be bought and sold at
the highest prh-e.
According to an exchange, in case of
a Presidential election, the States rer
lain for the Democracy are: Tho solid
South, IM votes; New York, SO; New
Jersey, ; California, 8; total 209, or six
more than is necessary for a choiee. In
Ohio, 23 votes, the Democrat have a
better show than the Republicans. The
doubtful Bute are : Indiana, 15 vote ;
Wisconsin, II ; Colorado, 8; Illinois, 22;
?I. nls: Oregon, 3; a total, with
Ohio, of 88 vote.
void.
Article V of tho Constitution, Amend
ment, says :
The Coimrcss. whenever two-thirds of
both Houses shall deem it necessary,
shall propose amendments to this Coif
.tt. t. i:.....! i .
niiiuuuii, 1,1, uu IIIU UlllirtlllUl Ul tWll-
tnirus oi tne several Slates, shall call a
convention for proposing amendments,
wmcn, in euner case, shall be valid to
all Intents and purposes, as part of this
Constitution, when ratified bv the Legis
latures of three-fourths of the several
.States, or by conventions in three-fourths
thereof.
It is plaiu that in case the Southern
.Slates desired to make appropriations
from tho V. 8. Treasury for the payment
of their war debts, another amendment
to tho Constitution would first be neces
sary, ratified "by tho Legislatures of
three-fourths of tho several states," re
pealing Article XIII, quoted above, a
contingency which is ono of the remote
possibilities.
It occurs not uufrcqucntly In the
United States that physicians are de
ceived by the druggists who compound
their prescriptions. Tho praetico of
medicine is mainly experimental, and if
the druggist substitutes a clicao article
for a high-priced drug such as German
pepsine, of whoso active ond valuable
qualities the profession is assured the
doctor is very probably brought to his
wits end when tryinu to account for the
strange action of the remedy prescribed on
his patient, who. may be in a critical
state. The time will come when we will
do in such cases as Is done in Franco.
An exchange says
Recently a druggist was found guilty
i ueuasing qnmine, una was sentenced
to one year's imprisonment. In addition
t this he Is to pay a line of 1,000 francs,
his nauje and crime are to be published
in twelve political and twelve imifessionnl
naiiers, and should he ever reoixm his
store, to the door thereof is to be affixed
a sign : "Sentenced for adulterating sul
phute of quinine."

had 09, Adams 84, Crawford 41, Clay 37.
Jackson's popular majority over Adams
was 50,6.51. The House by a bargain be
tween Clav and Adams, which John
Randolph denounced as a union of "the
Eastern Puritan and tho Western black
leg," elected Adams.
In 1828 Jackson beat Adams bv 178 to
83 in the electoral vote and l.')8,l;4 in
the popular vote. In 1812 Jackson heat

Naflonal Bank Circulation.
Dradatrecta, New York City.
The banks now hold, hi round mim-
liers, about 200.000,000, or, f 107,500,000,
of 3 per cent, bonda. Theae IioikIh will
all be called for paymert within tho next
three or four yeara. At the present rate
they will be called in threo vears. Dur
ing that period tho national hank circu
lation will ho reduced from f:!53,000,000
to 171 ,000,000, in thc'proeecH of the ex-
tingiiiHhment of tho debt. This is a
contraction of aomo $00,000,000 nnmiitllv
for three years, provided that tho bunks
do not Biiliatittito any other bonds for
the railed 3 per cents. On the other
hand, it in to lie considered that a Bond
many banka, when tne 4 per cents reach
125 premium, will consider that there is
more prnlit to tbem in renlmng the pre
mium than in contlniiinir the circulation.
The Controller of the Currency is of opin
ion that 125 is the maximum value nf the
4 per cents for any purpose of circula
tion. Unless some other security is pro
vided, national bank circulation' will be
extinguished with the public debt. One
of the most distinguished financiers of
the country said tha othr dnvt "Wr nrr
nearer a restoration of the old state-hank
system than we are to a system of exclu
sive government money." It would
seem that there is to lie a contraction of
tho national bank circulat'on between
now and Iccoiiibcr 15 of something more
than $12.000,0li0. Whether tho banks
will replace the 3s which havo been
called with hitih-priced 4a and continue
their circulation remains to lie seen.
