HIglII Shown Up by Figures Excessive Tariffs Will Make Votes Against Republicans. Editor Journal: It is amusing as well as Interesting to read the com ments of such papers as the New York Times, New York Evening Post and other papers which supported Mc Klnlcy and the proposed Dlnglcy tariff bill. The ;good old Oregonian of April 9, Inst., 1897, after denounc ing the proposed tariff legislation, says: "The Bryan men would like nothing better than enactment of the bill into law." These papers last fall loudly pro claimed for the election of McKinley to save the honor and dignity of the nation are as loud now in their de nunciation of McKinley, Dingley & (Jo's legislation.. A letter in the New York Journal of commerce by John Meyer points out that by the schedules or the Ding ley bill the duties on live speciited kinds of woolen goods in common use among working people are raised from the present rate of 40 per cent ad valorem to 191 per cent, 190J per cent, and 2811 per cent, 220 per cent, and 140 per cent respectively. The goods on which these monstrous rates arc to be placed are cheap boys' and mens' suitings, and overcoats, woolen shirtings, and women's cloakings. The Oregonian of March 20, farther says; "They who suppose that these burdens will be endured do not un derstand the temper of the American people." A prominent New York business man who supported McKinley writes as follows: "I may predict one thing the good times we had promised to us last No vember after confidence being re stored, when we marched up Broad way on that memorable day, Repub licans and Democrats shoulder to shoulder, all clamoring for sound money; have not yet come, and what is more are as far oil as ever. We are informed that the English hop growers are asking for a protec tive tariff against American hops and that their petition is bottomed on the familiar pauper labor argument. The contention is that the British hopgrowers, pay higher wages than the Oregon hopgrowers, and they are asking for a protective tariff against the pauper labor of Oregon. If they put a duty on our hops then we will get all tne beau tics of a protective tariff, but our protectionist friends will no doubt resort to the old argument that a tar iff will increase the demand at home. Do they propose to increase the de mand for hops by drinking more beer? The New York Times says the act should be entitled, "A tariff of abom inations" and asks the question, "why should an American citizen be com pelled to pay a duty of 213 to 270 per cent, on a plain pocket kulfe that cost about $1.00? During the war 5 per cent was thought to be sufficient. In the McKinley tariff less than one half these rates were collected, which was the highest tariff this country ever knew up to that time, which defeated the Republican party in 1890 and '92, also for Mr. Mc Kinley for re-election to congress. The bill of Jas. G. Blaine denounced, when he used the expression that it would not give a market for a barrel of pork or a bushel of wheat. Good times cannot be manufactured out of higher prices and less money. There were six and a half millions of free Americans who cast their ballots for free silver and "Wm. J. Bryan. If the election were to take place today his vote would be increased to nine mil lions, and if these times continue, which it is my opinion they will under the existing gold standard, he will be unanimously chosen chief executive of this nation In 1900 and will bring relief to a down trodden and oppressed people. Let silver men of all political shades unite under one banner for a common cause, the restoration of bi metallism, less extravagance and ower taxes. Old Republican. E. n. Lofftus died at Crano Lake, in Lake county, April 3, at the age of 70. He came to his death while on his way home from a fishing trip. He left his home at Crane Lake, and went on foot over to Deep Creek, taking his gun and snowshoes along. He did not return the next eyenlng, and a search was made, but he was n )t found until the day after. He was within about two miles of home, and going up a hill in a trail, where the snow was several feet deep, when he fell on his knees, with his gun In one hand and snowshoes in the other. He was found In this position, not having moved a muscle after he dropped. The race association at neppner has $700 in purses hung up for the spring meeting. STATE NEWS The new cannery at Astoria has started. Eugene has 88,930.02 outstanding warrants. The total Indebtedness of Eugene Is $17,491.53. All the mountain streams In Tnion county are on a bender. Eugene has Issued 12 saloon licenses the past year and received therefrom $2,400. Sheep shearing is well along In Mor row county and the quality is reported very fine. Nearly all ccllers In the business part of the town of La Grande are flooded. Uorvallis dedicated its uew jail. Ed Scott was the first culprit who dark ened its doors. The report of the Albany treas urer shows that city to have an in debtedness of 8109,205,99. During the month of March the Al bany creamery paid its patrons 25 cents per pound for butter made. Two clips of wool were sold in Hepp ner Monday for 7 and 8 centa while yet upon the backs of the sheep.

Gray addressed the fishermen at Astoria the other morn ing in regard to taking out licenses and permitting the lishermen of Washington and Oregon to fish. Mrs. Win Rynearson, of La Grande, while walking along the walk Wed nesday afternoon had a fit and fell Into the water, but was rescued and again resuscitated. She had a narrow escape. Geo. Bartmess, of near La Grande, was severely hurt by being thrown from a horse while riding after cat tle, lie was thrown about 30 feet striking on his head. The horse step ped Into a badger hole.

They will strike Salem In due time. An action has been begun by Henry Hogreffo against George II. Meyer, both of Washington county, for $10, 000 damages, for alleged defamation of character. The parties concerned all live at Blooming, 2 miles south of Cornelius. Miss Edith Fleming of Eugene, a step-daughter of J. R. Parker, of that place, received a dispatch that she could draw a check on the First Na tional bank of Eugene for $10,000. This is a result of a small sum in vested in a mine by her uncle. She has been working in a millinery store for a Hying. Col. T. E. Hogg continues to try to get that $25,000 deposited by him in June, 1892, on the sale of the O. P. to him for $1,000,000, or rather the rem nants of It, and how that $25,000 did dwindle. $0,405 went for costs; the remainder, $18,534 was deposited In the Job bank. When it came out of that it looked like a wet rag, It had dwindled to $7,414. Over a thousand dollars of this was put In circulation through a generous court, and $6,278 Is now left. This amount Col. Hogg now applies for and Judge Fullerton Is considering the matter. A man may dress os well as hi9 own good taste. Judg ment and the assist ance of an artistic tailor may elect He may take his "tubs" as regularly as the most conscientious water cure doctor may dictate; but if his digestive organs are out of order, he will have an un wholesome appear ance. His complex ion and the white of his eyes will have a yellowish cast. His tongue will be coated, appetite Soor, his teeth rusty, is breath abomin able. He is one big, unmistakable sign of constipation. Worst of all, his temper is as ugly and unwholesome to live with as is his person.
