From reedlne; articles In populist organs It would seem that this was (lie only time in the world's Jiivtory in wheh the few live acquired wea tli nd the many re mained poor, and (but the United State was iba only country iu whieh colossal for timet have been accumulated from insi oifieunt beginnings. Furlherniora, that these inequalities bavt been Ibe natural re sult of an iniquitous national policy pnr aued by republican administrations tor the tHt thirty years; and if thin were changed, millcnium would dawn upon the enrth, dif ferences in conditions would disappear, the lion would He down with the lamb. andO Jression by capitalists and monopolists would coaw. Thi- golden Utopian dream Is painted in (lowing colors to the oyer burdened son of toil, and it acts like the aongoftlie siren to stupefy his faculties and mislend his judgment, lint careful consideration will, in every instance, dispel tbe illusion. The world in the nineteeth century has nearly the same diversity of conditions in life Unit there were In the sixteenth, seven- teeth, and .eighteenth. There were princely . rich men in ail ages of the world, and also ery pi or ersons. Business sagacity and thrift have always been rewarded, while indolence and extravagance h ive caused poverty and suffering. Ibis has been true in all epochs of hiMory. and, reasoning from antilogy, will continue through all .time. There re millionaires who, if by mny unforseen circum-tances, were reduced to poverty today, would again lie wealthy in a short time; and H ere are poor men, "Who. if made wealthy tomorrow, would gravitate to their former condition in little wliile Ti e accumulation of riches is tbe result of a certain kind Of mental gen Jus, and without its proper exercise, no one will succeed in becoming wealty. Con ditions may be In Ipful, but these alone do 4ol erf ate millionaires. There must be -something inherent in the individual to warrant success iu this line, the same as iu any of the learned professions. It may be true that tba United States has presented many opportunities for fortunes to be ac quired in the last quarter ot century, be Cause of the wonderful development of the resources, but the men who profited by these advantages bad the sagacity to un derstand the situation and use it to their personal aggrandizement, Since the close of the civil war there h is been surprising recuperation, ant under such circumstances the sagacious rise to the surface. This has been true in all countries where there has been great growth after heavr disasters aud the history of the United States is no exception. If the-country had not rccov ered from tbe effects of the civil war there would have been few millionaires in the country, and while the immense fortunes , that have been accumulated since the war are due to the policy pursued by the repub licans, the revival of trade., tbe establish nient of industries, and tbe liquidation of the national debt, are the results of tbe careful management of national affairs by the same party, Tbe prosperity of the na tion made the acquisition of wealth possible. Whether it were better for the country to nave recovered from the reverses suffered from 18u'l to 18o5. and thus have given in telligent men opportunities to better their -condition financially, or to have remained in tbe bankrupt condition in which it was at the close of the war, we will leave ior the decision of those who are dissatisfied with present condi'ions. It is well to un derstand, however, that this country is not different from others, and that the close of the nineteenth century has not violated ny law of cause aud effect; also that while -a diverse policy than the one pursued might have decreased the amount of wealth in the few it would have increased the poverty 01 -the many. : Oxk of the most dishonest fallacies of the xopu)ists ia the demand for the repeal of the special contract law. Such a proposi- Hou is worthy of no other party no matter what other shottcomings it may have. The repeal of tliis law would do more to injure our credit, both national and individual, than any other law that could be proposed In substance the la is one w hich annuls -all contracts to pay borrowed money gold or any other particular kind of money. It is theprevailingcusttonitodrawupnote. mortgages, bonds, or any form of obliga tion to read that the borrower covenants to -pay in United States gold coin, and mil lions of such paper is now held by creditors throughout the country; but this law, if passed, would simply annul the gold clause and permit creditors to return borrowed money in silver, end buy the silver for forty-five cents on the dollar to pay it with Such a scheme is not only dishonest on the face of it, and would not only be a gross .injustice to private creditors, t ut it would "work a loss of many millions to our nation's creditors, and at the same lime ruin both the national and private credit. This prop osition is, therefore, unworthy the consider ation of an honest man or an honest party, -and while the government and the people would like to pay their debts, they will not stoop to such an underhand way of doing it ; our national pride forbids such perfidy and downright dishonesty. It is manifest that the man who would have the assur ance to propose such a law bus no money -to loan, but who probablv owes a largedebt 'Which he Is trying to repudiate by a law which if it had its inception in the republi can party would be instantly jumped on by (the populists and condemned ssplufocra'ic. criminal and vicious; but of course since it has its birth in the undefiied brain of a populist its virtue is not to lie questioned, nor it purpose assailed, for that party is tno ptire and nngelic to enact a dishonest law or even suggest one which would work an injury to even the most -Unworthy. A daw, such ns tbe import of the special con tract law, is a fair sample of populist fal lacies and an Introduction to w hat can be expected ff that-party is everallowed to run the government. Such a law is simply a schoolboy's dream or llieniorbid hallucina tion of a-diseused brain, worthy of a per son who has a vivid imagination and little practical sense nnd less humanity. Tut theories of the populistsou thn finan cial question one must consider fallacious. for every attempt made to create fiat money ' has proved disastrous, both on this side ot , the Athin' c and on the Karopeun contf-: dent. As far tbe republican pi in of rt-laattces-i ooucerad,4t has received u.prae-, tical tost for the past thirty years, and raised the nation from the deplorable, bankrupt condition in which she was in ISu5 to one of atlluence and unexampled prosperity in 1302. No other argument lived be used. The same can be said of tbe Kltcy ot protection inaugurated by the re uublicnn party , and in tbe mauufsement of national affairs the same rule applies as in tlie control of a common individual's bus inessnothing succeeds like success. Kx petiuieiittt are not the safest or wisest in national affairs any more than they are in personal cases. That is always the sound est and safest that bus stood the Usl of practical experience, lit his Ashland speech, Governor Ten Dover's democratic propenselics bubbled to tl.e surface, and caused him to speak )f the tariff in this strain: ''Today only the thoughtless and selfish are its defenders, and the time is not far distant wlun, with the ever-increasing enlightnien, of ourrao.-, the defenders of tariff laws framed to en rich some at the expense of others, will have become so scarce aud infrequent that they can only be seen in' the sideshows of some traveling circus, where they will be exhibited as great livingcuriositiea " '1 hose who are permitted to Ruse in awe uon this wonder-inspiring picture of former repub lican barbarity, will also see Mr. l'eniioy er's phis or exhibition, where he will be exhioited a a rack-brained freak whose only i-la in to disti.ii-lion U the fact that he championed the most inconsistent political heresies ever perpetrated upon au ignorant, benighted people. Di atso the c-u.u ol Hie debate at May ger, Saturday evening. Joe Waldrop under took to say that no soldier was paid iu either gdd or .-liter during the war, but that they were paid iu "depreciated cur rency."' 1 his statement is worthy of its aourt e, and a f ir raru.de of the lo iuagogy emitt.nl by him throughout his entire speech. There are numerous veterans in Columbia county who were members of both t.ie armies of the Potomac and Cum berland, who, as late as the month of Sep tember, ltf, received their pay in specie, and one veteran assures us that even afur thatd.it- he was given the prefere -- of taking bis pay in silver or currency, aud pretered the latter. W'beh arrangements were being made for the Mayger debate. Waldrop wrote Mr. Geo. Mayger that he did not care to waste any time on such small bsb as Cleeton. but that he would send some of his friends down here who could easily best the little republican In joint debate. In view of the beautiful manner in which Mi. Waldrop got himseh mopped up, it i highly proba ble that he now wishes, for the take of bis repntu.ioti an t pa.i. that he had sent somebody eN. Tat patriotism nf the populistsof Helens, this county, was tested ou Sunday, April 29. At the conclusion of a political meet ing held there on that day, three cheers were proposed for the American flag, and every republican In the house responded with a rim; butalthough there were a num ber of populists in the house, not one of them rose to his feet or laised his voice in praise of our flag, Hkaiul's late revolution is now a thing of tbe past, and peace once more reigns in that conspiracy-strkken country. Tbe formidable rebel ironilad Aquidaban has been sent to tbe bottom by a little torpedo boat, no longer than a 'upth launch, i ml the rest of the rebel fleet has surrendered Tna Amity Popgun no longer pops pop ulism.

It has been offered in extenuation of 0. A. Massie's perfidy, that he fell into bad company ami was led astray. We suppose this refers to the lime he joined the peoples party , for up to that time he was a model citizen, but he sadly fell from grace soon afterwards. A coKCLrsivg objection to all schemes for the inflation of the currency is tie fact that there is already a great deal more mm ey in the country than can be safely and prof itably employed. Governor Lewki-liso says that he will not again be n candidate for public office, which is about tbe only sensible thins- he lias uttered during bis imliti -ai career. Thk joint discussion iSatiimav niebt was another case ot David and Goliath, witu the diflcrence that (juhath not it in the neck instead of between the eyes.

A number of farmers in Oregon and Watliinfrton are experimenting in raining broom corn, and find it pays Very well. One farmer in Washing ton rained thn e acres of broom corn last year, and harvested enough to manufacture 120 dozen nod broom, which sell in the market fur S3. 50 per dozen. At thig rule the gross earnings on bis crop amount to $ 140 per acre. On this basis, twenty-five acres would yield the farmer 3500 gross per year, proviueu ne maiiuiiiciureti ins own brooms. The net profit would be large. Pray for Us. There is a great revival going on in our midst, save an eastern tinner. Wednesday night Hie groceryman got up in the meeting and said; "Breth ren, I'm the man who fiirniehed the orphan asylum with meat at twelve cents a pound wben it wasn't worth six cente." When he eat down another fellow jumped tip and said: "Breth ren, I want to make a clean breast of it; i'm the man who stole the meat he furnished to the orphan asylum. Pray for us!"

A FEW FIGURES WHICH SHOW WHY THIS C0VNTY IS in its rmssnT financial CONDITION. Populist criticism of the county's present financial condition compels us lo produce H few figures which should have the effect of stopping (he windy vaporings of that clues, which is ever ready to echo the threadbare, rasping cry of "ling politics" and "fraud." If the parties who are most prone to criticise, would tnko the pains lo regularly read and study the semi annual financial statements made by the different olllcials, the present 11 uancinl condition of the county could be easily understood, and the cause of it traced to its true source, instead of it bt'iog charged to dishonesty county officers. By reference to the last financial display it will be sen that tliecnuiity'e liabilities amount to f44,r!K).-19; and the resources, including delinquent and cut rent tuxes, equal that sum . When Judge Cox retired from tin office of probate judge six years ugi the couuty was iu debt f 1,128 07. At that time the office of eomniissiotiei waft created, and since then the county has gone behind just $7,000 a year, iu round unuibers : also since the ex istence of the commijsioners' court those two officers have been paid f'2.- 208.35. Whether or not the office of commissioner is or haf been a paying investment for this couuty, we leave to the iudgeirient of our readers. Bui this is a degression we bad not in tended to make; our real purpose be ing altogether foreign to Commenting upon the advisability of sustaining commissioners' court. The object of (his article is to show that for the past six years the county's receipts have been ouly sufficient to bear its run uing expenses, other than that ex pended upon roads, and thul ulmoet the entire indebtedness of the county today is money that has been spent in building roads and bridges, and thn the people have received a double bet efit from such expenditures iu having convenient roads and receiving pay for their services in building them such services as axtiieu, chuinuiun viewers, supervis re, and other labor Since the 31st of March, 1889, tli couuty debt has increased $-13,571 87 and during that lime the county In expended upon its roads $l2,.r(4.98 leaving a balance of $1,000.96 iu favor of the county. Alt this money, with the exception of pari of the coutrac price of one or two bridges, has been paid out here at home, ami the peopl of the county have received the beue fit of it. In extenuation of such enor mous expenditures for these two items it is only necessary to say that all roacis ana Drift gee are ouut at the re quest and upon the petition of the people, aud they, alu.ie, are responsi uie ior any money spent in this way During the fiscal year ending March 31st, 1894, the county expended $8, 531.63 on roads and bridges, wliile at the same time the treasury wu burdened to the extent of $3,245 by a defaulting county officer, and was pu lo a further extra expense of $1,139 15 for exporting county books; this latter item being the result of ttpeciul agitu lion t.y me populists. A glance at the last semi-annual report of lb' county s finances will show that the total delinquent taxes amount lo $43; 179.09, a large per cent of which owed by parties who are making lite most noise about the county being in debt, and if these same people would pay their taxes, instead of apostrophiz nig the past administration, they woul assist in a very substantial manner iu straightening out the county's finan cial complications. If the former managers of the county's affairs have failed to keep it out of debt, they have, at the same time, dealt leniently with the Uxpayeis, and never bat once put exl'a expense ujion them by forcing the collection of taxes.- This fact has not been appreciated by a certain class of people who are thus umibled to evade the lux collector; nor is such leniency endorsed by another class of people who regularly and willingly pay ineir taxes, and wno are really bearing the county's burdens. Further comment is unnecessary. A concensus ot Hie above figures shows subsiau tially that for the past six years tin county has simply gone in debt for forty-two thousand five hundred dol t.ira worth of road improvements, ami has only receivi d enough revenues to balance its other expenses. It slum. further that this money has been peui ior iu people, among I lie peo ple, anu oy lite people, and if the peo joe wish to remoiit.aie aud put llieir veto upon IhiH debt incurring jsilicy, they must remonstrate with them selves aud stop petiti ning the county court for a road to every rancher's cabin in the county.
