Butts SPRINGER ON THE PROSPECTS FOR 1896. Ex-CoDgressman Springer ia credited with the prediction that the democracy will be frightened into making a square declaration in its national platform in 1896 in favor of free silver, which he thinks will compel the republicans to antagonize this policy and nominate Al lieon. lie believes that the republicans will carry all the eastern states on that division, that the democrats will sweep the South, and that the West will bold the battle-ground between the parties Silver, he predicts, is sure to Jbe the burning issue of the campaign. The tariff will be kept in the background by both sides, and the rest of the questions which have been up recently will drop oat of sight in the next twelve months, This view of democratic policy is of intereet from the fact that the Illinois statesman is opposed to it, and presuma bly will use his influence against its adoption. He is not a free silver man On most of the divisions in congress in the past two or three years he was on the sound money eide. Unquestionably he would regret to see his paaty declare in favor of throwing the mints wide open to silver in advance of an interna tional agreement in that direction. It is clear , that he thinks the Bland ele ment will have more influence in dictat ing the course of his party than many democrats and republicans are disposed to assign it. The recent manifesto of the Bland men had. earnestness and elo quence, of course, but it was not stronger in these qualities than were some of its forerunners. Perhaps a majority of the delegates to two or three of the most recent democratic national conventions have favored free silver, yet the con- flervative 'element has always prevailed .and most republicans believe that it will next year also. Allison bas not, in recent republican calculations, figured conspicuously on the roll of presidential possibilities, but in national conventions the unexpected often happens. For a few years the dis tinguished Iowan has, in the popular mind, dropped out of the line of succes sion. Younger and more forceful men, like Eeed and McKinley, have been coming to the front, and Allison has been lost sight of in a considerable de gree. Allison is probably the ablest re publican in the country, next to Sher man, yet he is not the sort of a man to captivate the popular fancy or to stam pede conventions. As the candidate he undoubtedly would poll the regular party vote in most of the states, which, in the present conditions, and in those likely to prevail in 1896, would elect him, but age is one of the objections which stand against him now. He will be 68 when the next president is inau gurated. This is older than any presi dent was on taking office except the first Harrison, who was about the same age, and who lived only a month after reach ing the white house. TO KILL THE LOCKS. It is reported, and the report seems to be reliable, that the supervising engi neer at the Cascade Locks has forwarded a recommendation to the authorities at Washington that the upper bnlkhead in tne canal be not removed until the side walls of the canal are completed to the extra height, which the engineers con- oiuer uecessary to protect tne worKS from such floods as we had last year. That the walls should eventually be raised to the height recommended is perhaps proper; but that the bulkhead should be left until that time is absurd. The original plans placed the walls above the high water of 1876, which, with tht exception of last year, was the highest known Bince the whites first came to the country, eighty years ago. The only object in leaving ihe bulkhead would be to prevent damage to the works by a higher water than that of 1876, and as that height has only been equalled once in eighty years, it does eeera that the engineer is suddenly struck with an over-abundance of cau tion. It seems also that there must be some other reason for making this more. If the Day Bros, are let alone, and are allowed to complete their contract ac cording to the terms thereof, the canal will be open and boats that now ply the lower Colombia, will find their way to The Dalles within twelve months at the most. The lay Bros, are anxious to accomplish this result, tut if the rec ommendation mentioned is adopted, the work will not be completed in five years. In the first place, the present contract cannot of course be finished until the bulkhead is taken out; the bulkhead cannot be taken out until another ap propriation is made, and another appro priation canndt be made until the clos ing days of the next congress, which will be more than a year. The question arises as to whether an engineer and an unreasonable engineer at that, is to be permitted to tie up the work at the locks for an indefinite time, and to re tard the development of the great inland country for years to satisfy a whim, or to lengthen and fatten a personal job. We have waited patiently the com pletion of the canal, but we are not dis posed to wait yet another five years at the dictation of an aes, whether it be government animal or not. A NEW DANGER. A return tide bas set in with our for eign immigration and nearly as many are returning as come over. But the serious part is that it is the educated, law-abiding immigrants who are return ing to their native lands whilst the law, less, ignorant rable from Southern and Central Europe are pouring in in still greater numbers. On this subject The Interior of Chicago has the following pointed remarks: ''There is a general jubilation in the East over the fact that the tide of immi gration has turned, and thousands are going back to the old world every week from American ports. But so far as we see our exchanges fail to note that it ia the wrong crowd that is going back. It is not the Keopolitan but the Dane; not the Hun but the Swede. The Moats and the Schwabs and the Niebea and the Lings only flow in one direction. We are losing thousands of honest workmen upon whom conditions of life in the old world never pressed so heavy but they are willing to return to it. ant tne drastic measures introduced in every legislative body of Europe to purge itself of anarchists, will result in dumping upon our shores a less desira ble class than ever. Industrial depres sion has no terrors ior a class that never wanted to work ; and riot and turbu lence attract the riotous as the thunder of the captains and the shoutings draw the war horse to the field of conflict. Unless measures for our relief are promptly introduced we shall have fewer immigrants, but worse ones." We called attention Saturday to the fact that the attempt is being made, or at least that it is so reported, on pretty good authorfty, to delay the completion of the locks at the Cascades indefinitely by forbidding the removal of the upper bulkhead until after the entire locks have been raised to a height above the high-water' mark of 1894. We beleive this attempt is being made,- and we be lieve, further, that it will succeed, un less action is taken at once to prevent We urge upon our citizens the ne- ceBsity of prompt and vigorous action First, to learn if there is truth in this rumor, and second, to take such steps as may be necessary to prevent the scheme being carried out. We are not vindictive, neither are we quick to take onense, but there are some things that the mildest mannered of men are compelled to resent. One of those occasions has come to us, and we feel that nothing short of editorial gore supplied by the managing editor of the Oregonian can ever balance accounts In the guilelessness of our heart, the other day we noted the fact that we had been mistaken for Debs. Then the Oregonian fiend resurrected the cut of "a fearful example," hairless, bent, aged idiotic, and Of it said : "This is Debs, The news comes today that Li Hang Chang has been shot in the face by a misguided Japanese youth. The great Chinamen was on his way to his rooms returning from a conference with the Japanese peace commission, when the Jap, a youth of 20 years, rushed in front him and fired a pistol in his face, The bullet struck Li in the face, but it is said did not injure him seriously. This affair may result in Japan being com pelled to accept much better terms from China's standpoint than would other wise occur. reports trom tne Soutn indicate a general revival ot business. It is hoped the thing may become epidemic and that every town and village may be in- occulated with it. It has been a long time since the business men of the country could truthfully say "business getting better," and the fact that some of them can say so is encouraging. We can't have too much business to counter balance the awful thud with which things struck bedrock two years ago. Let the business boom come. We are ready for it. Since President Cleveland returned from his duck-hunting trip in North Carolina, it is said he only half agrees with Secretary Gresham. If this is true, his outing has not been without benefit to the country, and the sooner the president can take another trip, the better. Saturday the German reichstag re fused to pass a resolution congratulating Prince Bismarck upon the anniversary of his birth. All Germany is aroused over the matter, and the newspapers are filled with articles condemning - the reichstag's course. THE COMING PEOPLE. The tide of immigration is already eettintr in from the East: a tide that promises to culminate in a regular wave, Two causes have combined to cause this one the failure of crops in some of the western states; the other the fact, which Is becoming tolerably well known in the East, that in Oregon the crops never fail, and want and suffering are unknown. This stream of incomers should be somewhat controlled by the DeoDle alreadv here. Efforts should be made to divide it up, and to this end the fullest information should be given concerning the different parts of the state, so that the newcomer could suit himself, and select that portion of the state for a home best suited to his ideas. This, in such states as Illinois, Iowa, and the other prairie states, would not be necessary, because there is little dif ference between the different sections of those states. Here it is a necessity, be. cause with our vast area, our mount ains and valleys, our watered Willam ette and our dryer hills and rolling plains of Eastern Oregon, our magnifi cent mountain range, dividing the state and giving us a variety of climate, and consequently of products, make it im possible to convey any idea of any one section of the state by a description of any other part. Our resources are unlimited. The vast forests of magnificent fir, pine, cedar and hemlock offer opportunities to the millmen and lumbermen. The coast counties, and those bordering on the lower Columbia, furnish unequaled facilities for the dairyman. The Colum bia, and other streams that flow to the sea, contain mines of wealth in the nsn ing industries. The Willamette valley yields cereals as no other place on earth. The plains . of Eastern Oregon, with their succulent grasses, furnish pasture for vast herds of sheep and cattle, and yield abundant crops of wheat. The section along the middle Columbia, and notably Wasco county, is the home of the apple, the pear, the prune, and all same fruits. Southern Oregon produces the small fruits in profusion, and at the same time yields from the earth an abundance of gold. Baker, Union, Grant, Wallowa, and the counties along the eastern border, are famed for their wonderful mines, that are only yet in a stage of development. Harney, Malheur, Crook and the interior counties send countless numbers of fat beeves and sheep to market, and wool in quantities that run up into the millions of pounds. And besides these there are hundreds of things that are possible. In the last named counties, for instance, the whole attention is turned to stock, because the distance from market precludes farming except in such limited form as will sup ply the local market. The industries of Oregon are hardly begun to be developed, they are hardly named yet, and many that will event ually add to her wealth, have not yet been even thought of. With all these varied pursuits to choose from, the im migrant would easily select, but he must be told where to go. A million people can be. distributed throughout the state and all would find homes and create their own employment, if a little knowl edge is given them as to where to go, This should be furnished, and the stream of immigration divided up into a thous and smaller streams at this end of the route, as it was at the other in gathering itself for the trip across the continent, A little care and attention will accom plish this, and Oregon will get a portion of that stream which has heretofore been emptied into our sister state to the north. Wasco county can absorb 50,000 of them and ha-e room for five times that many more and give every one of them a home. Shall we make an effort to get them, or shall we sit idle and see the stream flow by? The latest newa from Cuba indicates that the insurrection is getting quite formidable. It may be possible that this will indeed prove a revolution, and that Cuba may set up in business for herself, unless she is.wooed and won by Uncle Sam. WASHINGTON LETTER. From our regular correspondent. Washington, March 22, 1895. Mr. Cleveland and Secretary Gresham ought to blush for shame every time they think about demanding the recall of Mr. Thurston, the Hawaiian minister. It is but another added to the long list of unmanly acts with which Hawaii has been dealt by this administration. It is simply childish for Secretary Gresham to pretend thqt the recall was asked for because Minister Thurston gave infor mation to the newspapers about Ha waiian matters before he gave it to the department of state. That is merely an excuse. Thurston's real offence has been that he was always wide awake to prevent any misrepresentation of Ha waiian affairs being accepted by the American people, and was consequently constantly opposed to the administra tion and its policy. Secretary Gresham does not consider giving diplomatic ad vance information to the newspapers any crime when it can be made to serve his own purpose. It has been 'scarcely a week since he gave the newspapers his dispatch to Minister Taylor, demanding an apology from Spain for those shots from a Spanish gunboat at a U. S. mail steamer, before it had been cabled to Spain. He not only gave out the dis- patch, but he compelled those who used it to do so under a Madrid date line, so as to leave the impression that it was given out in Madrid and not in Wash ington a senseless bit of deception, which was at once discovered and ex posed. It will be remembered that Mr. Cleveland promised congress, in a special message, that he would keep it advised concerning our relations with Hawaii. Yet in the face of that promise a com munication asking that Minister Thurs ton be recalled was sent to the Hawaiian government on Feb. 21st, eleven days before the adjournment of congress, and not one word was said to congress about it. It is not surprising that Senator Frye should say: "It looks to me like a very small piece of business." They are telling a story in Washing ton at the expense of ex-Congressman Bryan, of Nebraska, that hits off Mr. Bryan's ruling trait good enough to be true, if it isn't. According to the story, a book agent induced Mr. Bryan to buv a copy of the Oentury cyclopedia of Names, by telling him that the book . contained the name and biography of every man, living and dead, who ever made a marked impression upon the affairs of the world. A few days after the book was delivered Bryan sent for the book agent and said to him : "You sold me that book under falso pre- tences. "I bee pardon, but you are mistaken," replied the suave book agent, Mr. Bryan began to lose his temper and snapped out: "Didn't vou tell me that the book contained the name and biog raphy of every man, living and dead, who has made an impression upon the world's affairs?" "Yes, sir; and it does. It does nothing of the sort; my name isn't in it." "Why should it be?" retorted the book agent. Although the senate rejected the nom ination of Alfred D. Tinsley to be poet- master at Sioux Falls, South Dakota, the home of Senator Pettigrew, by more than a three-quarter vote 42 to 13 Mr Cleveland this week signed Tinsley'o commission as postmaster. Evidently Mr. Cleveland liked to be jumped on by the senate, and he will certainly again get jumped on about this appointment, when congress meets again. Sibley and the new silver party are alreadv reported to be on the verge of divorce. Sibley is rich, but he is also shrew that's one reason why he is rich and those who had an idea that they would be allowed to have the run of the Sibley money bags in return for having suggested him as a presidential candidate have already discovered how badly mistaken they were. In other words, Mr. Sibley declines to put up money for moonshine, and in conse quence the promoters of the silver party no longer even pretend to believe that Sibley is a great man who only needs to have his statesmanship developed, Even the populists have refused to join the silver party. This isn't a one idea country. There never has been and there never will be a successful political party which confines itself to a single idea. That a majority a very large majority of the people of this country believe in bi-iuetaliem is certain, but that they will sink all other beliefs and ever be merged into one political party isn't probable. Let no man make the mistake of supposing that silver is going to be the deciding factor in next year's presidential campaign, or that any third party is going to cat any figure in the campaign. The fight is going to be be tween the republican and democratic parties, and it is reasonably certain that the republican platform will declare for bi-metalism, and probable that the dem ocratic platform will do the same, or straddle the question, notwithstanding the scheming now going -on to re-nonv inate Mr. Cleveland on a gold basis platform.

Welching; Cola In tha Bank of Bngland All the sovereigns and bait-sovereigns received here immediately Undergo, in large room adjoining, the ordeal of the weighers, or separators. These are small brass boxes, perhaps a cubic foot in size, with glass sides. In the center of the brass top is a small round hole, little larger than the sovereign, which is filled by the round plate of a delicate balauoe. Upon this balance the sov ereigns or. half-sovereigns, according to the machine, slide, one at a time, by their own weight from an inclined half, tube, in which they are placed by the handful, forming a long inclined cylinder of gold coina. As each coin weights the balance, the latter sinks. If the coin be of standard weight, the balance sinks far enough for a tiny steel finger, moving to the left, to tilt the coin off down tube into a receptacle below. If the coin be light in weight, the balance does not sink so far, and the roin is caught by .1 l r . ... atcona nnger, moving in tne opposite direction, which tilts it iuto a receptacle on the right. These machines work automatically and perfectly, and save an amount of labor which can only be im' agined, testing thirty million pieces per annum. The room, contains sixteen of them, all working silently and regularly by atmospheric engine power, under the care of a single emploje. The light coins are immediately split in halt and returned to the mint, while those of standard weight remain in circulation. H. J. W. Dam, in McCIure's Magazine for April. Stockholders Meeting.
