EXEMPTION Of INDEBTEDNESS.
Mr. G. W. ItowcU.oI Stayton, write!
to the Marion, County Democrat op
losing the repeal ot the exemption of
indebtedness. Mr Powell is of the
opinion that all the trouble lies in the
- faotthat the assessors do not assess
. property at its full face value as re
quired by law. We cannot see how
it would help matters, says the Derao-
crat,tobav a full value assessment,
. when all tha dishonest man has to do
is to hand In another bunch of indebt
edness. Placing a high or just value
j on property would, only compel the
'sSoncst man to pay more taxes, while
the dishonest ones would escape, just
a they heve heretofore. As to the
mortgage tax law, it is a cumbersome
: and useless thing, for the reason that
no law can possibly be devised where
by the borrower can avoid paying tax.
If t is not paid as a direct tax it will
' be as a brokerage, "accommodation,"

The money-lenJer will get his price
j ior his mouey, anil tle only way to
bring down that prlee is to frame laws

lending that, in short, will bring cap

the state. Such laws wonld be of
more benefit to Oregon than any ex

AccoBMSCf to the Astoria Herald
the .contract for the construction of
the jUtoria-Guble railroad has been
signed. The syndicate which proposes
v' to build the road is composed of New
- York capitalists, with a few excep-
J tions, and the proposed route is from
Croble down the Columbia through
AUerbrook and across Young's bay,
with the coast terminus at Flavel
''Cltyi few miles below Astoria. The
Mibt has always claimed that the first
railroad to Astoria would follow the
' bank of the Columbia from a connec
tion with the Northern Pacific and
now our opinion seems to be verified
by this latest action of the Astoria
railroad projectors. In the first place
ihi, distance to trans-continental con
nection is lees than half by this route
than any other f and, secondly, the
line traverses a comparatively easy
' ' country to construct a road. While it
is true that little credence is put in
Astoria railroad projects, yet each
Proposition, with time, brings the mat
sr nearer reality, and our people need
not be alarmed nor surprised at any
thing thai may accrue from the sign
ing of this new contract.

ashincton, ttwember 23, 12,
,. story thul has lenkud out be
.( Congress took its holiday recess
list in time to smother an awful row,
nmountinj almost to it revolt, in the
democratic camp. It iccms Unit Don
Dickinson was sent here by Mr. Clove
land to inform the dumocrulio loaders
in the house Hint there whs no occa
sion for them to worry about (lie tariil
us it wna his intention to have a turill
hill nil ready to be passed presented to
the house of the Fifty-third congress
as soon as it comes together. There
was Borne very plain talk among tho
democrats in both house and senate
when this messnge was delivered to
them, not the least significant of which
was the Intimation llint it is in the
power of the present congress to com
pel the calling ot an early spring ses
sion of the next congress. Don Dick
inson very wisely waited until just be
fore the recess beforo he' delivered his
momentous message. The good feel
ing engendered by tho holidays may
result in cooling the blood of the in
dignant democrats sufficiently to pre
vent an open outbreak when congress
comes together on the 4th of January,
but the message will not be forgotten,
and if Mr. Cleveland persists in his
present intention as to furnishing con
gress with a ready-made tarin bin,
open war will probably be declared
against him by his party iu congress.
A short time ago when Congressman
Breckinridge, of Kentucky, stated his
opinion that the new tariff bill ought
to be prepared by Mr. Cleveland, it was
thought that he was only making use
of a bit of flattery to get deeper into
Mr. Cleveland s good graces, but now
it is believed that the opinion was
made public at Mr. Cleveland's re
quest, as a "feeler" of puhho sec fl
uent. ..
There is a mistaken idea prevalent
as to the object of the committee ap
pointed by a caucus of republican
senators, of which Senator Hoar is the
cbaiiman and Senators McMillan,
Chandler, Teller and Mitchell are
members. The republican senators
are to a man of the opinion that no
outsiders, and least of all U. 8. sena
tors, have any right to interfere with
the election of senator by any state
legislature. This committee will have
nothing whatever to do with influenc
ing the election in any state legisla
ture ; but it will thoroughly post itself
upon every meve taken in those states
in which attempts are being made or
have been made to change the polit
ical complexion of the legislature, so
that when the credentials of any im
properly elected U. S. senator shall be
brought . here it will be prepared to
present evidence to show that he is
not entitled to -a seat; and it was
solely with a view to having this evi
dence collected thiit the committee w is
formed. Senator Chandler says of the
situation : "I do pot consider the dem
ocratic chances of controlling the
senate to be one in a hundred. The
republicans now have a majority of
eight, and it will take four democrats
to wipe it out Tho only votes they
will have will be the senators from
New York and Wisconsin. If Mr.
Kyle is not to be counted with the
democrats they will have 41 members ;
if he is with them, 42. In some of
these states the democrats are claim
ing the republicans have an absolute
majority, and in others it appears that
tbe populists have the balance of
power. . Nowhere is there visible a
sufficient number of votes . to give
them, as democrats, control of the next-l
U. S. Senate." It is said that Senator
Peffer will vote with the republicans
against a reorganization of the senate.
Jerry Simpson has gone home with
his bead full of schemes concocted by
Gorman to get himself elected to the
senate, and should he succeed he
would belong body and soul to Gor
man, unless he violated pledges which
those who ought to know say he has.
made.

diaries Fredericks Found Dead In
. Scappoose Creek,
last Tuesday Charles Fredericks, of
Dixie, Washington connty , wa found dead
in South Scappoose creek, about a mile
from Anderson's place. Fredericks left
his home on Thursday of last week with
tbe intention of going to Portland. After
he had gone some distance he missed bis
way in the snow and wandered off into the
hills in a northeasterly direction. On his
not returning home when expected, a
searchingparty started' out to look for him.
Tbe party followed his tracks into the Scap
poose mountains, over hills and canyons,
and in the great depth of snow until Tues
day afternoon , when they found the lost
man lying dead in Scappoose creek, as
above stated, lie bad evidently taken to
the bed of the creek in order to avoid tbe
tedious traveling in tbe snow, and wan
dered on without food or rest in tbe chilling
atmosphere until death from starvation
and exposure ended his sufferings. Justice
Blscksley, acting coroner, went to Scap
poose yesterday to hold an . inquest, if
necessary, and np to press hour had not
returned.

consequence other creditors ' had filed
claims more than covering tbe resources of
the firm which had failed. Tha telegraph
company claimed that their wire was down

tbe message could be sent. The court held
that this being the case the company should

electric treatment. For several years
she has been . a sufferer from goitre
(enlarged or swollen neck), and we
were utterly unable, to find, through

ever until advised to consult you. I
did so, and the success attending your
treatment has been simply marvelous,
as I am happy to say my daughter is
today thoroughly cured, not a vestige
of the old swelling or trouble remain
iuir.. I return the battery, which has
been of much benefit in home treat
ment. I attribute her cure entirely to
your method of treatment, and shall
remain under everlasting obligations
to you. Any one interested in this
wonderful cure is at liberty to call and
see me at my home, Twentieth and M
