Address all communication to " THE CHRON
ICLE," Tho Dalies, Oregon.
. . A bulletin issued by the census bu
reau sliows-that the assessed valuation
of all property in the United States ex
clusive of railroads increased nearly fifty
- eight thousand millions op about 46 per
cent, in ten years from 1880 to 1890.
Should the same relations be found to
i xist between the assessed valuation in
1892 and the valuation as it existed in
1890,. the absolute wealth of the United
-States may be estimated at f64,G4S,000
000, or more, than $1,000 per capita,
against $514 iu I860, $780 in 1870, and
4870 in 1880. The history of the world
-furnishes no porallel to this, and it must
be remembered that this immense stride
in material advancement was made
while tariff reformers and evenRelists of
dispair were muttering their bootless
forebodings of imminent 'calamity and
disaster. The United States is the
".greatest, richeet, best country God ever
made. To borrow from Burns, the crea
tor trie '. his "'prentice hand", on Baby
Jon, Egypt, Greece, Koine, Great. Brit
ain, and then he made the United
States. - .
Tacotna, a short time ago had a spasm
of reform and "antiboodle." The re
publican rascals were turned out and an
ntire new set of democratic rascals were : wt tj,e World
The platform adopted at the Minnea
polis. convention . congiatnlatea the
people on the majestic' march of the
nation under the banner inscribed with
the principles of the republican platform
H of 1888. It reaffirms the doctrine of pro
tection, calls attention to its growth
! abroad and maintains that the prosper
ous condition of the country is largely
due to the wise revenue legislation of
a republican congress. It reaffirms the
belief that all the articles which cannot
be produced in the United States, except
luxuries, should be admitted free of duty,
and that on all imports coming into
competition with the products of Ameri
can labor there should lie levied duties
equal to the difference between wages
abroad and at home. It asserts that the
prices of articles of general consumption
have been reduced under the opera
tion of the tariff act of 1890 and
denounces the efforts of the ' democratic
majority in the house of representatives
to destroy our tariff laws by piece-meal
as is manifested by the attacks upon
wool and lead ores, the chief products of
a number of states, and points to the"
success of the republican poliey of reci
procity, under which our export . trade
has vastly increased and new enlarged
markets have been opened for the pro
ducts of our farms and workshops.
It demands the use of both gold and
silver as standard money, under such
provisions as will secure the mainte
nance of a parity of the values of the two
metals, so' that the purchasing and
debt-baying powerof the dollar, whether
silver, gold or paper, shall be equal. It
commends the action of the government
in its effort to secure an international
conference to adopt such measures as
will insure a parity of value between
gold and silver for use as money through-
. All special agents of the general land
office have been granted a furlough with
out pay, from June '13 to SO inclusive
This is the polite way .of putting it' The
plain, unvarnished English of it is, con
gress has not signalized itself by any
supreme act of economic reform since it
effected a saving of $50 on West Point
soap, so Brother Holman, in a fit of des
paratrbn, has cut down the appropria
tions below the actual sum required to
fulfill existing obligations. Great econ- i
omist is Holman ! .
Referring to the recently published
interview in the New York Mail and
Express, between the governor and Col,
Shepard the governor says he did not
expect his remarks would be published
and adds by way of a left handed
apology :
I did not favor the abolition of tariff
taxation further than from all the neces
saries of life, neither did I assert that
Cleveland was the biggest fraud in poll
tics, but that he was the next biggest,
the post of honor having been accorded
to George llliam Curtis.

turned in. The new mayor turned his
pious eyes heavenword when he was
hunting votes and swore by all the
gods in the anti-boodle pantheon that
gambling and boodling would cease if
the dear people would place his head in

delightfully, and the "reformers" were
elected. Now at the end of only a few i

The Cure For
Scrofula was once supiosecl to be die
touch of ' royalty. To-day, -many grateful
people kirow that the "sovereign remedy" is
Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This powerful altera
tive extirpates "the evil" by thoroughly
eliminating an the strumous poison from the
blood. Consumption, catarrh, and various
other physical as well as mental maladies,
have their origin in . ... , r

When hereditary, this disease manifests it
self in childhood by glandular swellings,
running sores, swollen joints, and general
feebleness of body. Administer Ayer'sSarsa- '

" My little girl was troubled with a painful
scrofulous swelling under one of her arms.
The physician being unable to effect a eure,
I gave her one bottle of

Sarsapartlla, and the swelling disappeared."

"I was cured of scrofula by the use of Ayer's
Sarsaparilla."-J. C Berry, DeerOeki, Mo.

Sarsaparilla

and Jim got what he wanted. Now that
Hill has possession of the franchise he
tells the Spokane people that they are
not justly entitled to terminal rates and
must be satisfied with "relative" rates.
For the meaning of this new term in rail
roading, Jim refers the people to Web
stera dictionary. We suspect, in Hill's
own vocabulary "relative" is "all-the-traffic-will-bear"
writ small.
We learn from the Washington Inde
pendent that Garfield county, Washing
ton, has bonded its small debt of $30,000
and sold the bonds, bearing six per cent,
interest for $300, premium. This trans
action will effect a saving of $1,200 per'
annum to the taxpayers as they have
been paying 10 per cent, interest
. -on their debt. ' There is a good chance
for some of our newly elected Solons to
signalize themselves by effecting the
-passage of a law in this state that will
enable counties to bond their debts and
thereby save many a dollar to the tax
payers in the form of reduced interest.
The Chicago Herald, (dem.) has dis
covered one instance where,' beyond the
possibility of a doubt the tariff was a
tax. ' It was that of a Chicago man who,'
arriving in New York from Europe, was
found to have a silk dress pattern con
cealed under the lining of his over coat.
A custom house officer arrested the gen
tleman for smuggling and at his own
earnest entreaty he was let off with the
payment of $30 tax on a dress that had
cost him $60.
.The most popular fad in the political
world is the cry of "reform." The simon
pure demogogue and successful vote
catcher these days is a "reformer" and
anti-boodler," either that or he is work
ed by the potency of the demijohn and
beer keg. These paths leads to office,
political glorv and" ultimately to the
devil.

democrats made no effort to secure votes

wasted as. he could not possibly be
elected."
pie but insists that it should be
trolled by the United . States
ernment.
It favors the admission of the remain
ing territories at the earliest practicable
date and affirms that all federal appoint
ments for the territories should be msde
from bona fide residents thereof.
It favors the cession, subject to home
stead, of arid public lands, to the states
and territories in which they lie.
The Columbian exposition is declared
to be a great national undertaking and
congress should foster and support it so
that results might be attained commen
surate with the dignity of the nation.
Sympathy is expresse'd with all fair
and legitimate legislation tending to
lessen and prevent the evils of intem
perance and promote morality.
It pledges anew to the veteran soldiers
of the republic, watchful care and recog
nition of their just claims upon a grate
ful people and finally, commends the
able, patriotic, and thoroughly Ameri
can administration of President Har
rison under which the country has
enjoyed remarkable prosperity, and the
dignity and honor of the nation at home
and abroad have been faithfully main
tained, and offers the record of pledges
kept as a guarantee of faithful perform
ance in the future. '
Lflopse Shoeeing a Speiality
The finger .of destiny points with
steady aim towards Governor Pennoyer
as the standard bearer of the people's
parly in the coming national campaign.
One by one -the obstacles that have
stood in tljp way of his advancement to
this proud position have been removed.
The last obstacle, the existence of the
confederate brigadier, L. L. Polk, who
only a few days ago became a convert to
the principles of the people's party, but
whose three years' service as president
of the farmers' alliance would have as
suredly given him the nomination,' has
been removed by the hand of death.
The way is now clear for Pennoyer.
The Walla Walla Union, referring to
the nomination says : "Whitelaw" Eeid
is the first newspaper man ever nominat
foran office as great as that of vice
President.?' Has Schuyler Colfax and
his South 'Bend Register, been so far
forgotten? -
