ITS EFFECT STILL WITH US,
The fifty-third congress pissed out
of existence at noon last Monday, alter
two years of absolute folly, attended
by business e tan nation and general de
pression on every hand. It almost
causes one's heart to ache when coin
paring the present condition of the
country with that wnicn existed wuen
the late but not lamented congress
met two years ago. The evil doers
have passed out of existence, officially
peaking, but the effects of their inca
pacity is still with us. While the
country has been begging for relief at
the hands of congress, that body has
gone on aoJ on with the finger of
scorn pointed at it, and the earnest en
treaties of those who have created it
have been trampled under their feet.
Congress has, indeed, seemed unwill
ing to enact a single law which would
tend to relieve the distressed condition
of the country, or to offer a substitute
which would in any degree stimulate
business. With our import revenues
cut off by the Wilsou law, our factor
ies and workshops closed in favor of
the foreign manufacturer, the ruouey of
the country centering or hiding away
through fear of vicious legislation, and
bonds being issued to pay the current
running expenses ol the government,
the people have been forced to sit like
a enat before an elephant and await
ibe inevitable. The inevitable is still
with as, but the congress is gone, thauk
Clod, it's gone.
PROTECTION TBS REAL REMEDY.
Thx Hist has at all times argued
that the safest and surest road to pros
perity ia through the protective sys
tem, and that in comparison with pro
tection to American industries the sil
ver question is of minor importance.
Again we say the real remedy for our
financial ills is the repeal of the Wil
son tariff law, and the substitution
therefor a stiff tariff for protection.
Bv this means we believe the money
now hoarded in the safe depositories of
the East would at once begin to spread
out over the country in search of in
vestment, furnishing employment to
American mechanics and workmen in
general, at fair wages. By starting our
factories, mines, ana otner industries
the laboring classes would be afforded
n opportunity to earn the wherewithal
to buy the necessaries of life, and there
by stimulate our home market for th
products of the farm, which is the key
to the prosperity of the United States.
The home market regulates the price
of all commodities, and if our consum
ers have not an opportunity to earn
money with which to patronize the
home market the demand is small and
consequently the price low.
First of all, raise the duty on imports
which would enable our factories to
operate, putting money in the pockets
of our working people. The work cre
ates a demand for imports as well as
for home productions. Every ship
that comes to our shores brings a cargo
of merchandise, and unless our people
have the money with which to buy
those goods the shipowner cannot buy
our Droducts. If an article which sold
for $1 in good times is reduced to 50
'cents and the consumer lias not toe
money, be cannot buy. The cheap
ness of an article cuts no figure it tne
consumer has not the cash. Hence,
we must first, by a protective tariff,
legislate money into tne pockets oi
the ooosumer. This is the issue we
believe to be paramount to all others.
We are reaping the fruits of the in
famous democratic tariff law, receiving
blows from all sides. On account of
that law alone the French government
has issued its edict prohibiting the
entrance to that country of American
beef. The effect of this is to deprive
this country of a market winch has
been purchasing $20,000,000 worth of
our beef per .year. A proposition was
some time ago made to mis country
to remove the differential duty on
French sugar, and the fact was known
then that if this conntry refuse to re
move that differential duty the French
government would prohibit the en
trance of American bef. Truly, all
we have been -spending so much time
aud labor building up, is being knocked
down with one blow ry a democratic
tariff. Must we -endure this for two
more yeart And even if we live for
another two years wont will we have
worth protecting? This government
nearly, not quiie.coiuuiinou auiume
two years ago,
Sknator McBriob is a safe and con
servative man and will devote his lime
and energies to the cause of the peo
ple, never forgetting that as time goes
on conditions change, and we believe
lie will he always ready to march when
the hand of progress directs. When
nterviewed a lew days ago the senator
said : "It is evident there is need of
reform in the financial system ot the
country, and jt is my belief that such
reform must proceed on the lines of
the lust republican platform. I believe
that a return to the republican policy
of protection is essential to the restor
ation of the national finances to a
healthy condition. I am also confi
dent that the republican parly, when
it secures control of all the brunches
of the national government, will solve
Hie ccnnomio and puancial problems
now before the country, in a way that
will restore prosperity to all the indus
tries of the nation. J do not think it
necessary at this time to outline a spe
cific scheme of finsnoial legislation
which I would support. I do not wish
to make tiny expressions that would
limit my freedom of judgment and
action upon such measures as may be
proposed."
Thkrk will be no more friction be
tween Oregon's senators. Senators
Mc Bride aud Mitchell are in perfect
accord with each other, have always
been warm personal friends, and can
be depended upon to work in harmony
for the best interests of the state. In
stead of being arrayed against each
other on great questions they will be
as one, with two votes. As indicated
in these columns many times, the peo
ple of Oregon prefer to have a delega
tion in the national, legislature which
is not divided against itself.
Mr. Wilson of West Virginia, father
of the disastrous tariff law, has been

CRACKEP ALL U18 LIFE.
In an obscure paper which has but few
subscribers, including the (oar copies that
come to this postoffice, last week appeared
an article entitled "The Nat Cracked,"
signed by Wellington M. Perry, and it
seems to be the general opinion of those
who know him best that the nut who wrote
the aforesaid article has been cracked all
his life". The Mist has not heretofore dis
cussed the qualities of Wellington, or
referred to him in other than friendly
terms; but since he has attacked the editor
of this paper in an unprovoked personal
manner it becomes our duty to retaliate.
We presume the bigot with a name im
agines himself mayor of New York or
Neer City, and styles himself a deciple of
H. W. Scott, H. W. Corbett, M. C. George,
J. N. Dolph, etc. If those gentlemen only
knew they were being patterned after by
such a creature as Wellington M. Ferry
they would snrely commit saicide. The
aforesaid egotist further says Mr. Ellis
openly encouraged the re-election of Mr.
Dolph, which he knows to be a barefaced
prevarication. The man whose name oc
cupies so much space says those who differ
srith us are called "soreheads." Yoa are
quite mistaken, neighbor, you are the one
living in a glass house. There were any
number of men in the state any one of
whom we would have been glad to have
seen elected, first among them being Geo.
W. McBride, while you, with your narrow
ness of intellect, could see no one but Dolph.
But seriously, Wellington, are you not
something of a "sorehead?" did you
not want an office last spring any office
from representative down? did you not say
that if yoa couldn't get the nomination for
sheriff maybe you could get school super
intendent and when your great ability
was declined for both, did you not say very
hard things about certain candidates and
especially the one for sheriff? did you not
try to get the nomination for school super
intendent in 1892 and when the convention
concluded it could and did make s better
selection you croaked long and loud, saying
very nncomplimentary things about your
opponents, Mr. Cleeton and Mr. Watts?
These are the things, according to our un
derstanding, that it takes to make a "sore
head" and a first-class "sorehead" too. .
We do not deny the light of any man to
differ with ns upon say. question. Indeed
we are always elad to see people have fixed
opinions of their own, all classes from the
most worthy down to Wellington M. Perry,
and, though the name be long we trust his
strong right arm will not give oat antil be
has signed in full. Bat this person with a
name accuses us of working for subsidies
and boodle. Right again, Wellington, w
own up we made an unsuccessful attempt
to collect a little boodle from you recently
which has been due some time. That
probably accounts for your attack upon the
editor of this paper. Call us boodlers if
you like, but remember we do not owe any
school district 200;or $300 of public funds
entrusted to our care, nor have we while
custodians of district school funds loaned
the money to private parties and made the
teacher wait for his hard earned salary.
And now, since Wellington, after a long
winded tirade in his article, expressed a de
sire to avoid personalities, we, too, have
been reluctant in dealing in personalities,
using only very mild terms considering the
subject at issue.
Before we close let us say to our readers
that we owe you an apology for appropriat
ing so much space to such an insignificant
worm as Wellington M. Perry.

8TATE INSURANCE COMPANY.
Mr. Edmond 0. Oiltner, the new
manager of the State Insurance Com
pany, was in town this week on busi
ness connected with the company and
partly to rest after the hard work re
quired in the secretary of state's office
during a session of the legislature.
Mr. Oiltuer ia very sanguine of excep
tional success for his company, having
doue a finer business during January
than any previous January. The new
insurance bill passed duriug the recent
session, he thinks to be a very equita
ble measure. It will bring to the
school fund of Oregon from 120,000 to
$30,000 annually, and is a just tax, as
the several insurance companies have
all the protection of our courts, and
heretofore have practically paid noth
ing, while our home company has paid
as much taxes as any ten foreign com
panies. Mr. Giltner feels that, to a certain
extent, the loyalty of the people should
be given to bis company, as it pays
over $1300 a month in salaries, every
cent of which is spent within the state,
and besides all the profits of the com
pany remain at hame. There were
taken out of Oregon during the year
1893, over $300,000 by foreign insur
ance companies as not profits, ac
cording to sworn statements on file in
the office of the secretary of state.
The amount of net profits during 189-1
cannot be ascertained for several weeks
yet, but is undoubtedly large. It
takes a large exportation of wheat at
the present price to keep up such a

Hon. Phil Metschan, state treasurer,
has been elected president of the State
Insurance Company, and the fact of a
man of Mr. Metschau's ability, char
acter and financial standing accepting
such a position is a positive guarantee
of the stability of the company, aud of
its future success. Mr. Gillner wishes
to assure all that honest losses will be
paid promptly, but that great care
will be taken to ascertain dishonest or
even doubtful losses, rs the payment
of such losses necessarily increases the
rate, and offers a premium on incen
diarism. MAYGEB.

Perhaps no larger congregation ever was
gathered in St. Helens to pay their last re
spects to one called to the great beyond
than that which assembled at the uhurcb
last Sunday in attendance at the funeral of
Miss Mattie Perry, and listened in almost
breathless silence to the words of cheer
spoken by Bey. Judy. There on that beau
tiful day the great warm hearts of nearly
200 people went out in sympathy to the sor
rowing relatives, whose dear one bad passed
to the great beyond from whence no trav
