A "calamity howler" ia the product of
selfishness run to seed. As Luther
used to eay, "every roan ; has a pope in
his belly," so it may be said every man
is a natural born monopolist. From the
boot black, the pea-nut vender, the
country peddler, who carries his stock
in trade in a grip sack to the manu
facturer or warehouseman who turns
over scores of millions of dollars an
nually, all are monopolists, all are
possessed of an innate wish to control
the entire trade or business of their own
district. Brooding over the riches that
others have picked up on the journey of
life, the "cafamity howler" has come to
think that the fruit of energy and
economy is a crime when the other fel
low reaps it. To hear him talk one
would think the greatest of all crimes
was to get rich, and vet the last one of
themselves is busily engaged in looking
for a soft snap at other peoples expense
-and acting precisely on the principle
they so loudly condemn in others.
Human nature is the same in General
Weaver or Adventurer Eorke, who howl
for the coin there is in it as itisjn
Clans Spreckles or Jay Gould.
DECORATION DAY.
Next Monday is the day, when by
common consent the nation garlands
with flowers the graves of its heroic dead.
Precious beyond earth's richest jewels,
more fragrant than the roses we scatter
upon the cold clay above them,- sweeter
than the music of earth's choicest min
strelsy is the memory of those who lived
and died to make and keep us free. No
marble shaft or sculptured monument
may mark their resting place or tell the
record of their deeds. The tale is written
on a grateful nation's heart. Gathered
around the friendly earth that conceals
their precious duet we scatter fresh
flowers UDon their graves to keep their
memory green. For us on tented field
or open plain they bore the hardship of
the winter's blast or summer's sun or
boldly braved the cannon's mouth and
shot and shell or not less nobly perished
in the prison pen by gaunt starvation or
bv foul disease. For us they left the
homes thev' loved and friends that loved
them in return, to die perchance with
out a friendly hand to close their glassy
eyes. The blood tney saea is tne seeaor
the nation's liberty and the nation shall
cherish it while the stars and stripes
continue to float over a free people. .
, .Dr. Kinehart of this city has been se
lected to fill the vacancy created by the
resignation of Dr. Holt of Portland, on
the state board of charities and correc
tion. This board never before had a re
presentative iu Eastern Oregon.
Mr. Geo. G. Lindsay, of Hartman,
made us a verv clever call today. He!
In the light of the present altitude of
the democratic party on the tariff ques
tion it ie interesting to remember that
1883 Ohio democrats circulated a pamph
let arraigning the republican party in
the following language :
""The republican president, tariff com-
tuissioner and congress, at the bidding i
ot tne monopolists ot JNew England, wan
tonly and wickedly reduced the duty on
wool so as to -enable foreign producers
-to compete advantageously with native
.growers. The average reduction of the
duty, you will remember was 18 per
cent. With the reduction of 18 per cent.
'the abandonment to a great extent of
-eheep raising must inevitably follow, if
tthe .pernicious course assigned by the
republican party is allowed to be carried
wt. The .democratic party, as
the facts show, have been steadily and
earnestly opposed to the perpetration of
this great wrong against the people."
And in 18S0 the platform of demo
j'rats of this state of Oregon said :
"We condemn the action of the repub
lican congress in reducing the tariff on
wool."
.If it was "wanton" and "wicked" and
-m great wrong upon the people" to re
duce the tariff on wool 18 per cent in I
1883, what shall we call the placing of
wool on the free list in 1892 ?
The Athena Press says : "Ellis, the
republican nominee for congressman,
owes his nomination to ex-Gov. Moody,
of The Dalles, who is an open champion
of the Union Pacific and against an
open river. Ellis himself has been an
attorney for theLTnion Pacific. Vote for
Luce." Let the Press vote for Luce if it
wants to. A vote for Luce is half a vote
for Ellis, for Luce has no more show to
be elected than the Press man himself,
who is not a candidate ; but Ellis does
not owe his nomination either -directly
or indirectly to ex- governor aioouy.
Moody's candidate was Senator Hilton.
When the Press says "Ellis has been an
attorney for the Union Pacific," it says
what is equally false, and what, we had
almost said, it knows to he false. No
paper making any pretention to respect
ibilitv can afford' to lie in this fashion.
reports everything fine in the vegetable j
kingdom, 'with the exception that in j
some parts a worm pest abounds, doing j
wholesale damages to fields it attacks, i
Mr. F. A. Kirby presented this office j
with a sample box of magnificent straw- !
berries the product of Mr, Klint's gar- j
den on Mill Creek. ' The berries .
averaged an ounce each, 1C to the pound. ;
They were taken to Portland Saturday
evening, where they were greatly ad
mired. "..-
Patriotic parent" in Portland have al- i
ready begun commemorating the visit of
the cruisers. Mrs. Frank Dow presented
her husband with a eon and heir ; they
name him Charleston Baltimore Dow,
then a few of the sailors of the cruisers
who wished to show their 1 apprecia
tion of the compliment to the ships,
presented young C. B. with a handsome
silver knife, fork and spoon.
The case of W. H. Butler vs. D. Gil
lispie, involving the price of a certain
piece of land occupied the court all this
forenoon and was not ended at the time of
going to press. Judge Bradshaw expects
to get through with thedouketthis afternoon.

Democratic papers that have helped
to swell the howl of the calamity shriek
era onght not to be surprised if their
labor should produce fruit corresponding
with the character of the seed sown.
After men have been taught to be dis
satisfied with everything,- it is not
strange that they should refuse to be
. satisfied with any candidates for office
whom they, themselves, have not nomi--nated.
Veatch is in every way a better
man than Rorke, and- is largely in ac--cord
with the people's party, but that
jiarty won't support him. It prefers a
mere adventurer who is in politics for
the living he gets out of it. Hermann
wonld probably beat Vcatch under any
circumstances but with Korke in the
field, Veatch has not the ghost of a show.
The democrats have succored a viper 1
and now it stings them. The people's
party is no democratic annex in Oregon
this year.
Geo. W. Childs of Philadelphia, Col.
Shepard, of the N. Y. Mail and Express,
and ten car loads of other eastern editors
have djscoverd Oregon the past week,
and will return to their various sanctums
with a far better understanding of the
webfool nation than they ever had before.
"Seeing is believing," said Wa, F. Day
as he left the car in Salem and returned
a few moments later with a bouquet of
clover and red-top grass which he pre
sented to the Kentucky delegation with
the greetings of the Webfoot state. ' He
told them that Oregon could boast of
her beautiful women, green grass and
fast horses, the same as Kentucky. The
greeting was received with thanks, but,
it is said, a subdued murmur of dissat
isfaction pervaded the Kentucky car
when it dawned upon some of the mem
bers of the sterner sex that nothing had
been said about whiskv.
Horse Shoeeing a Speiality
The Klamath Star describes Hermann's
opponent in the first congressional dis
trict in the following fashion : "Veatch
is behind the age. He echoes in the
rear of progressive thought. From the
stump of the demagogue he echoes in
-appeale to the prejudices of the ignorant.
He is wind, empty of everything but an
-odor of moss, mingled with an occasional
whiff from the venerable chestnut
.-.grove ! ' '
The Review of Reviews moralizes over
the fortune left by the late William
Henry Smith. He was possessed of a
personal fortune of $8,500,000 ana real
estate of perhaps as much more, but he
left nothing to public or charitable ob
jects. The article goes on to declare
that the fact that he made no public be
quest has done very much to forward
the' determination in the Old AVorld to
pass a law which shall levy duties on
the estates of rich men ; it even goes so
far as to say that the nest parliament
will not expire before an attempt will be
made to deal with the question of death
duties ; that England will probably have
a graduated death tax' sooner than a
graduated income tax.
Blai nes' friends had the lung tester ap
plied to him yesterday by- Dr. Pepper, of
Philadelphia, provost of the University
of Pennsylvania. The' doctor sounded
! Mr. Blames' lungs, tested his heart, ex
amined his 'muscles and other ' vital
organs and then wrote the following pre
scription : "You want to look after your
eyes and take plenty of exercise. With
these precautions you are fit for anv-
thing." - c.
