THE REVSNVS QUESTION.
The monthly statement of collec
tions of internal revenue shows that
the receipts in October, 1897, exceeded
those of the corresponding month in
1896 by 9761,323. For the first lour
month of the present fiscal year the
increase over the cfrresoridinj period
ia 1896 has been $6,750,069. If this
rate can be maintained during the re
mainder of the fiscal year, 1897-98. the
receipts from internal 'revenue wilt in
all probability exceed those of any
year since the abandonment of the
internal revenue tax on proprietary
articles. In IbUo the total receipt of
the bureau were f 146,830,616 ; this
year, from present indications, they
may exceed the f lbljUOl.BW collected
in 1S93, when the average collections
were considerably augmented owinij
to the apprehension of distillers that
a higher tux would be placed on spirits
by the democratic congress.
The receipts troort customs snow no
signs of increasing, but the fact does
not occasion disappointment, as it was
clearly understood that the importers
bad filled the country with dutiable
goods in anticipation of higher duties
tinder the Dingley bill. These stocks
are being consumed quiet rapidly, and
the outlook for an early resumption of
importations is improving every day.
Wbeu a normal condition in the iin
port trade is reached it will be found
that our takings of foreign goods will,
for a time at least, be as large as tbey
ever were, and may perhaps show
decided increase over the heaviest
years in oar experience.
There are plenty of democratic
papers whose editors scout this view,
and tenaciously adhere to toe opinion
that the effect of the increased duties
under the McKinley bill will act in a
prohibitory manner, but experience
does not support their theory. There
may be some classes of foreign goods
which will feci the effects of the tariff
in the fashion described, but in nearly
every instance the excluMou will be
found to be merely the anticipation of
a result which would have inevitably
occurred in the near fo.ln.re. That is
to say, foreign (roods of the came kind
as we are already manufacturing or
producing on a large scale will be shut
out by the expansion of home Indus
tries, which will take complete posses
sion of the domestic market, precisely
as American iron and steel have done.
But those things which we do not pro
duce in large quantities, and which we
have hitherto freely imported we shall
continue to import as before until we
are able to supply ourselves. This lat
ter category includes a wide range of
articles on which high duties are im
posed, and which are conisumed by a
class of people abundantly able to pay
for tbe luxury of according preference
to foreign rather than borne produc
tions. Under the circumstances it
may be safely assumed that tbe gloomy
forebodings of those who predict that
the Dingley tariff will not produce suf
ficient revenue will be dispelled, and
that we shall soon see in the monthly
reports of tbe state of tbe treasury fig
ures that indicate surpluses rather
than deficits.

The Oregonian states that the Co
lumbia river canners are preparing a
bill, to be sent to the Oregon delega
tion for introduction in congress, pro
hibiting the false labeling of Columbia
river salmon. Such a course is wife
and necessary. False labeling will con
tinue till the national government
takes hold of the matter on the broad
principle of public policy. The state
legislatures will never do anything to
remedy the evil. They are too easily
controlled to ever hope to enact any
thing conducive to the propagation of
ealmoh or protection of the fishing
industry. If a bill is put into congress
it should contain provisions regulating
the close seasons, the gear, and pro
tiding a tax on the salmon industry
for supplying tha Columbia And all
other salmon streams on the coast
With young fry. The tax should be
sufficient to maintain tbe expense
necessary to protect labels and prop
agate. Astoria News.

Tbe basket-ball entertainment inRftniuW
for Saturday evenine of this areek is eseit-
ing considerable interest among the friends
ef the ladies expecting to take part The
new wareroom has been fitted up for the
occasion, and a large audience is expected.
Six ladies on each aide are to be the con
testants in tbe earae of basket-ball, and
expect in addition to give a wand drill and
an exhibit of Indian club exercises. Au
admission fee of 15 cents is required, which
is very reasonable.
Christmas entertainment are not ninnneit
by rain at Ciarskanie. and the crowd of
spectators dttied the elements to be present
at Hie chnrch last Fridav evening. The
result waa that not near all the crowd could
find a place tn sit, and even standing room
was ruther at a premium. A fiieJhri-tiii,is-tree
ornamented and laden with presents
s conspicuous at one end of the naim
and children of various sizes were imnined
around it for tbe eveufcg's, exercises, ail
making a pretty picture as one gazed on it
from any position toward the entrance.
An instrumental introduction nuon the
organ by Mrs. Crosby was followed bv a
chorus from the school and an invocation
from the pastor. After this the vocal selec
tions and recitations of the cantata "IW
ing of the King," were given in order, con
stituting a iileasing entertainment. Two
selections by pupils of the primary school,
under charge of Mrs. Wiiitten, were re
ceived with many expressions of delight.
After these exercise the tree was lighted,
Santa Clans appeared, and distribution was
made of 200 boxes of candy, and the sane
number of sacks of nuts, which scarcely
supplied all present, as was intended, owing
to the unusual attendance, but the short
age was taken good-naturedly, and a few
dividends declared by tbe fortunate ones
seemed to make all right. Presents were
then taken off the tree and given to those
entitled to them. Not man failed to secure
some token of goodwill. A coquet of paper
Mowers was held up by John English with
the announcement that it was made by a
poor lady who could not be there teaight
with her children. He proposed that tbe
boqaet be sold to the highest bidder, and
the proceeds given to the maker for a Christ
mas present. Bidding was spirited and
Win. Chandler became the possessor at I 50.
which was gratefully accepted later. This
closed a very iutereatine eiiterinimiirnt-
one that will long be remembered by the
juniors and posihly as long by the elder
ones. The annual Chrislmas-eveeiitertiiin-
ments and distributions are made possible

It becomes our painful duty to record the
death of another of our esteemed citizens.
After a siege of nine weeks of patient yet
apparently painless waiting, deceased
yielded to the Inevitable. Tbe direct cause
of bis death is not known, but it is pre
sumed that general debility of lone stand
ing made it possible for, tii st, paralysis of
the bowels, then by degrees one member
after another seemed to be aifected ; linallv,
during Thursd iy night Ibe patient showed
signs of approaching death. For thirty-six
hours he took no nourishment, not even
water, and during this time was wholly un
conscious. At about 11 in the forenoon cX
last Friday the earthly carree of Thomas
Loughry was brought to a close and on
Sunday at 2 o'clock his remains were laid
to rest in the Fishbawk cemetery. De
ceased was formerly a resident ef Clatsop
county, but had been living in Columbia
county for the past seven years. He leaves
a wife and two children to mourn bis loss.
The fsniily is left in a comparatively help
less but in no wise destitute condition.
Tbey enjoy the sympathy of the entire
neighborhood, and have had and will rs
ceive material assistance from their neigh
bors, who are noted for their generosity.
