L-ibor is to be wounded in ita most vital spot. Iron wool, lumber, cotton, aud rice, all of which are" lite production of unskilled labor, are to he added to the list of uu protected articles, while the products if skilled labor, which represents by far the icwosl numbers is lo be more or less protected, thus dealing a fatal Mow to a clasj of labor least able to receive it. The dimple effect of such legislation will ba to complete the ruin ... tf an already helpless and beggared people, by opening our market to the products ot- the pauper laborer of Eu jvpe and the worse than pauper labor of ther parts of the world; for, with existing duties upon these articles re moved, it will be an easy matter for the foreign producer of raw materials to unload his productions upon onr market and totally destroy all possi bility of tho American laborer finding employment unless lie is willing or forced by hunger .to work for the same tiejigirly pittance it cannot be digni fied with the name of wages that the European pauper is forced to accept The argument advanced in favor of free trade was that it would reduce the price of everything the laborer bu.vs, making his living cheaper. This is a fact but a fatal oae.s If the producer receive less for his products lie must necessarily reduce the expense ot pro duction, aud tlie first place he will be gin will be the price of his labor. The labor vote was very largnly instrumen tal in b.ioging about this unfavorable change, arid must now suffer the wounds it has indicted upon itself. A deplorable remit of the change is the fact that the most helpless element of the labor class is the one to suffer 1 lie most, and the blow recoils upon theni with terriUe effect. When the nitre threat of tariff tink was made, the effect was to close nearly every manufacturing establish ment and mine hi the country because the dealer .u these product? could not tee the philosophy of buying either manufactured goods or raw materials at protection prices, and being obliged to st'll them at the prices which such commodities will bring when placed in competition with goods manufactured of fee raw material and by foreign pauper labor. The misguided laborer uece to lute the mistake he has made, but has iio means of ndeiving his un pleasant situation until he is again called to tho polls to dictate the policy j of the country, and it will then remain : with linn to say whether this country shall enjoy protection and prosperity or continue free trade and suffer in dustrial ruin. A CHANGE NlCESSARY. The farmers of this county must soon realize Ih.tt they must adopt a more profitable system of farming be fore that industry will become a pay ing one, and in order to do this it will lie nocessary to cultivate crops that will be easiest to market aud bring tho highest cash price. In this con nection it must bu claimed that hops and fruit enjoy an especial advantage over any other crop that can be" pro duced here. The former offers better inducements to the farmer than the Litter, and is by all odds the best crop that can be grown in tliB county for rcctrJ re isong; principal soiong which is the fact that they are always salwbk at prices which ivcl the producer a cash return and a handsome profit for his outlay of tinw and ltibor. The reason that so ma ivy farmers have failed to make a snecesshi their line i the simple fact that they have failed to cultivate profitable and salable crops. The farmers of the lower Columbia have always thought that unless the; devoted their entire farms and atten tion lt latsins ami feeding hay they could not possihiy realixe any prulHa. To a few, hay-raisins has been a small source of revenue, but it has always been an unsatisfactory one and one that has always kept them pour, while with others it has been a dismal fail ure. If the farmer of this county can be induced icust out ot the old rut they h ivit follow -A so long, plow u p their meadows and plant them to hops and fruit, they will do the county a material benefit and start them selves upon the road to prosperity aud success. The Astoria Kailroatl. Recently tin-re has developed another so it'iii" to build a railroad to Astoria, a matter in which Columbia county people feel more or Teas interested, and I'rom tho tenor of the fallowing dis patch from that city "it certainly seems as though the proposition is a fair one :" "Astonans are all agog over still au other proposition to give this city transcontinental railroad connection and as usual a very targe section of the eomtmrtiity thinks that it is a sure i hi tig. It is certainly n proposition that seems iike business, however. J. 0. Stanton, and J. S. Smith, both New York capitalists, and both rated well in Bradstreet's, came to this city some weeks ago to look over the country They were brong t here from New York by Walter C. Smith and . A. Seiley, of P-inland, una weut away seeming pleased with their trip, though they would not talk. They now make an offer to purchase and complete into Astoria the Seaside road on or before Mav I, 1S94. and to complete a rail road from this city to Guide before Jannarv 1, 1895. For this they require 31100 acres of land and a right-of-way forty feet wide through theeutire water fiontof Astoria. Ibis land subsidy is to be placed in the hands of some solid Portland trust company, and is to be paid over lo then in quarterly nstalhnetits as earned. 1 be former (Joble proposition was embodied ia a company known as 1 lie (."olumbia Kiver & Astoria Railroad Company. That company possesses twenty miles I right-of-way, options on a good deal more, a weil-locaUd line, estab lish 1 last year by Vv. H. Kennedy's survey, and maps, charts aud profiles, the latter valued atfU.UUO. The new scheme will absorb this com pan and its possessions, taking the old name to save incorporation. The principal condition insisted on by Mr. Stanton is that the subsidy shall all be raised by January 10. All the large holders of property on both sides of the bay have signiQed tbeir willingness to donate liberally, and ili. v are now trying to induce small holders to do their shate. Among these smaller holders is right where the main difficulty lies. They are sus picious of every man that donates any thing to a subsidy, and the moment they begin to believe that their prop erty may become at all valuable by the acquisition of a railroad, they do their best lo hold onto every foot of it, Imp- ng that tht ir neighbors will give enough to make up the amount of land required, fit anion and Smith have formed a construction company in New York with a capital slock of l,000,000,of which $650,000 is sub scribed, $250,000 of which is immedi ately available. The whole road to be built is eighty-two miles long, includ ing sidings and the seashore extension, and the total computed cost at the iresent prices of material and labor is $1,350,000. Stanton says he will be gin construction the moment the sub sidy is raised. He has engaged Ken nedy as Ids chief engineer." The Republican Bunghole. Prof. Iiork, in one of his great speeches in this county, compared the rcpuwican party to the barrel that came over in the MayUower, and des crihed it something like ibis: "The gentleman who owned the barrel asked a friend to visit Ids borne and see it. i.nd said that it was all there, but the staves, jioops and both heads, where upon the friend asked what part of it came over in the Mayflower and re ceived the answer that the bunghole was the only part that made the voy age. .Professor Kork staled that all that was now left of the republican party was the buriKhole. We bet a four dollar horse to a gooseberry that Mr. Kork now thinks that it must be a duced big bunghole. Oregon's First Newspaper.
