St. Louis Republican, Dem.: The New York Staats Zeitung, organ of thu Germans Democrats of Now York, protest' earnestly against any attempt to retire the tariir issue or to substitute any other lssuo for It. After referring to Mr. Hill's at tempts to thrust himself on the party, It says. New York's business community, heietofore in the maiu favoring the Democratic party, is alarmed in the highest degree. It would, if the party continues In tho direction mentioned, without the slightest doubt turn Its back upon Democracy and throw tho whole weight In t'uvor of the Republican party. Tho Democrats would at tho next elec tion bo buried under a majority in our state for which it would bo hard to ilnd a parallel lu tho history of the party. The question of whether Mr. Hill aiu carry New York wasaulllcloutly settled when ho called tho February convention. No mail can com mand the support of a united Demo cratic party In New York or auy whero else who resorts to such methods of bosslsm. B WE Til 15 ClIII.nUKN l'KOM LIVUS OP OKIME. S. F. Chrenicle: One of tho best pnofH of the merit of tho kinder garten system In this city Is given by the ofterof Now York capitalists to put up foO.OOO for the establish ment of a similar system In that city. These men want to secure tho services of Mrs.Sarah B. Coopor, to whom the success of the Golden Oato Association is mainly due, but, fortunately for San Francisco, Mrs. Cooper feels that her first duty Ilea near at hand. What tho kinder gartens have dono to reduco juvenile crime In San Francisco and to make good, honest, hard-working mon and women out of poor and neglected children Is incalculable. The money yalue of this work is far beyond oven the large sum that bas boon contributed for the support of these schools, and tho charity Is one which should appeal to everyouo who Is anxious to do his share in making life better worth living for those who start handicapped In tho raco. SUAUi MAKION COUNTY CONTINUE ItKPUllUOAN? Not a shadow of n doubt about it! It is more sure than the stato and that la certain sure. These me tho impressions that come to the mind in considering the matter. Two years ngo ono member of tho legislative ticket was defeated, ono county officer was nearly defeated and the county outside of Salem gavo a majority for Pcnnoyer. It would seem to bo not so ab solutely certain sure, but It Is us sure to go Republican as anything in politics is sure. Marlon county will continue to be Republican In county politics, but only with a strong, clean aud ablo ticket and it looks as though that was to bo had. AN EAKLY CONVENTION, Tho meeting of tho Republican county committee Is called for Saturday, Feb. 27, at 1 p. m. at tho Hotel Willamette, Salem. Tho work of the committee will bo to fix call und representation for county convention. Tho .operation of the new Australian ballot law Is intricate and there should bo as much time given us possible to familiarize tho people with Its workings. Hence an early county convention Is quite desirable. Tho tickets must be mado up, the booths erected, tho Saw must bo given an experimental Vial to allow voters to understand its workings. The counties that fully realize the Importance of this will be best prepared to have tho luw well carried out, Call tho con vention early. HUOaESTEl) COMMENT, Cleveland gavo tho Democratic party what It was sadly iu need of an "issue." Ho forced It to come together against that wrong and tin- Just thlugcallcd "protection," Kast Orejoniun. If a Republican pajwr were to say that the Democratic party had no principles and never attacked a wrong until forced to, tho above Democratic paper would fairly howl. But Is not that about what it myu of its own party In the above words? Tho Chicago JIurald Is Democratic and it thus responds to botno of the Democratic critics who havo carped at Its support of Qen. Harri nou's administration Jn the Chilian uilalr: "They are witless lu Intellect, ruled by personal malice of commercial subsidy, libeU on the fame of Jeffer Bousnd Jackson, recreant to sublime inheritance of patriotism aud duty, they are hoodlum iu Amorlcan nationality and Idiots In politico.1) The llernld, the Now York Sun and hundreds of other Democratic or gans rose nobly to the demands of patriotism, and Republicans will prove that they boloug to the samo class of Americans if occasion shall ever nrlso. Ex. Baker City El.ide: Tho course belug pursued by tho Democratic congress makes it very evident that nothing can be expected in the way of nil appropriation to aid in over coming tho obstructions to tho navi gation of tho Columbia river, a mat ter so vital to Interests of tho great Inland Empire. They arc consum ing valuable time, for which tho country will hold thorn responsible. Oregon and Washington demand nn opeu river they must have, and all opposition had better stand from under. Let tho governor call the legislature together and let tho people demaud of it nn appropriation for tho relief of tho great Inland couu try. The legislature would hardly dare refuse it. Nothing hurts a frco trade Demo crat more than to see nn Amorlcan industry prospering, in spite of tho predictions of that party sinco the pasaago of the MoKlnley bill. The Davenport Democrat says: "No wouder British capitalists are soud Ing their money to this country to invest in lands, plow factorlos, breweries, flouring mills and other Industries. Americans who go across the water are telllug fabulous stories of tho resources of tho United States as a whole and of particular sections. John W. Dwlght, who owns 00,090 acres of laud in North Dakota, lias been saying to London friends that tho crops in his stato for 1881 sold for mora than enough mouoy to pay for tho land which produced them. It in a good plan, Mr. Dwlght, to average these things. Put tho Dakota crops of 1889, 1890 and 1891 together and then divide by three." Hack from Nebraska. Ed, Jeubnaii: I will glvo your readors a few notes rolatlve to my sojourn In Nobraska since tho first of December last. On Nov. 20th I loft Salem by way of Portland nnd Tacoma, aud tbouco over tho Cana dian railway to Winnipeg; thenco to St. Paul uud Omaha. On the 27lh of November tho mercury regis tered 83 below zero In Manitoba aud tho northern part of Dakota. After arriving in Nebraska the weather was fine till Dec. 23d, when it turned cold and tho mercury ranged about zero until about tho 10th of January, when they had a fow days that ran down to 22 nnd us low as 40 below; thou tho next day it turned warm and ran up to 70 and 80, making a change of 120 in 24 hours, and I can assure you that I believe I would much prefer tho warm rains of Oregon to tho cold and changeable climate in tho states farther east. Dec. 4th whllo lu St. Paul thoy had a regular Ore gon rain all day, which turned to a snow aud finally to a storm that covered n territory or range of about 200 miles square Arriving at York, Neb., Dee. Oth, tho farmers were found picking corn, tho season having been so wet that tho crop was not an average ono lu quantity or quality; but the failure of tho preceding year'B crop makes the prices hold up to a fair price, tho averugo being 27o a bushol, while prices for all other farm produco aro Just about half what they aro In Oregon. Best wheat Is worth 05o; butter, poultry und eggs Just oue-hulf what they aro worth In this market. While sojourulug for two months among old friends and neighbors, I found a goodly number who were thinking of coming to tho Pacific coast, and I then mado arrange ments to bring nn cixcurslon out over the B. & M,, Bantu Fo and Southern Pacific railroads, aud loft them os follews: Blx for Los An geles, nine for San Jose, four for San Francisco, nnd ten for Mary's Hill, Cal.; myself nud Mr. Fitch for Salem and ono for Portland, while six others camo by way of Denver forModford, Or, Twelve more will start for Oregon about tho 15th of February, und thero aro a great many more who want to chungo their locations for a warmer climate. While I distributed a good supply of advertising matter for Salem uud tho Willamette valley, I think It would bo a wise thing for tho bourd of trudo aud the reul estate firms of Salem to lake steps to make a lino display of fruits, vegetables, grains, grustes, flowers, etc., including all tho products of tho valley, at the stato fairs and as many county fulra oh possible, in Nebraska and Iowa, nud ulso take steps for a flue display at the world's fair. While attending the stato Farmers1 Alliance at Lin coln, also horticultural and agricult ural societies at the same place, they all desired that Oregon would make a display at Lincoln during the coming state fulr where wo would recelvou warm welcome. I think such a move can be satisfactorily arranged with the railroads for transportation of the same, and such arrangement would work sat isfactorily to all concerned, and bo the means of bringing in largo ex cursion parties that buy land and Highest of all in Leavening Power. Roy&l js2ag?gf ABSOLUTELY PURE other property and help to dovelop tho grand recourccs of this the greatest fruit and grain country on tho Paclilo coast. I had a great deBiro to seo New Mexico, Arizona and Southern Cali fornia, but I nm fully satisfied that I don't want anything that I saw on the Santa Fo line, or anything south or cost of Barstow on the S.P. railroad, and I nm fully satisfied that the soil and climate of Oregon aro better for all grains and fruits, other than tho tropical kind, than California or the Southern states. B, R. Rya'n. Salem, Or., Feb. 9, '02. Descrying Pralso. Wo desiro to Bay to our citizens, that for years wo havo been selling Dr. King's Now Discovery for Con sumption, Dr. King's Now Life PIHs, Buckleu's Arnica Salvo and Elcctrio Bitters, and havo never handled remedies that sell as well, or that havo given such universal satisfaction. Wo do not hesitate to guarantee them every time, aud wo stand ready to refund tho purchase price, if satisfactory results do not follow their ubo. Tucso remedies havo won their groat popularity puroly on their merits. Daniel J. Fry druggist, 225 Commercial street. GENERAh NEWS NOTES.

When his wlfo was taken east, Hcd spoth wroto to this attornoy to tako up her caso, and a number of lettors were sent him In this city addressed "H. V. Bwanson."

New York, Feb. 12. The World, referring to tho resignation of Presi dent Boors,or the Now York Life In surance Company, and bis probable successor, Bayia: "Mr. McCall haa known nil along that Mr. Beers was opposed to him. The strength of this opposition was demonstrated when Mr. Beers was first notified by tho trustees thuthlsrealgnatlon would bo accepted. Ho communicated with all tho managers and general agents In the country and suggested that they come to Now York. Tho most of them did, somo of them coming all tho way from California to support tho man who had appolned them to their luoratlvo positions. Mr. Beers' liberality to tho agents, whloh was criticised In tho report of tho stato superintendent of insurance, mado all of them his friends, and when thoy saw that his successor was to be a man to whom bo was opposed, they decided to mako a fight for him. Lato yesterday afternoon about twenty of tho managers and agents met in tho company's build ing and discussed the situation, Mr. Beers did not want McCall, and thoy did not eltler. After the meet ing, whloh. vasuaeoret, an attorney propnrcd a statement for the preee. This statement was to the effect that, as the trustees had decided to elect a president without consulting tho agents, tho latter desired to make a protest. Tho agents thought they should havo been consulted in the matter. A commltteo was appointed to draft a plan of action, composed of Gcorgo W. Perkins, of Chicago; L, A, Cerf, of San Francisco; and D, L. Klngsloy, of Boston, Their ro port will bo submitted at another meeting to be hold today. The agents, It Is expected, will present the name of somo other man to the trustees as president. If ho be not accepted they will protest against tho election of a president. How this will affect McCall's ohancea re mains to bo seen. It shows how good a fighter Boers is. JAMES a, BLAINE. New York, Fob. 12. A Wash ington speoial says: On Monday morning Attornoy-Genoral Miller walked Into Private Secretary Hal forda's ofllco and, after referring to Mr. Blaine's lotter of withdrawal, remarked; "I don't seo of what ubo it Is now. If bo had written it u mouth ago it would havo beon of service. If ho had held It back for a month or so It would havo done somo good. It is not worth any thing as It is." This Information comes dlreotly from a gentleman who was present whon tho conver sation between tho attorney-general und tho private secretary took place, It goes fur to mako clear tho feeling existing on the part of tho president aud his most intimate friends towurda Mr. Blaine. What aro Mr. Blulno's feelings towards the president and these most Intimate friends is not a difficult mutter to determine. Mr. Uarrktoa Is sadly dlcsanolntod by theBMua letter. Hob disappointed by IU tono aa well aa by Its unlooked-for appearauoo. Iu fact, all tho promi nent politicians of both the admin istration and the autl-admlnUtra-tlon factions In the Republican party aro disconcerted by ito publi cation at till tine.
