The laboring people of Columbia county will hardly be induced to vote any other than the Republican ticket this year. Theory aud practice are two different and distinct thinjrs. We know by sad experience that Cleveland free trade theory deprived hundreds of peo ple of the opportunity for earning a dollar, und they know also by experi ence that for "two years past and at the present the demand for labor ex ceeds the supply. We mention this matter because the other fellows seeiji to have forgotten all about it, but the people haven 't. Wi have ample reason for believing that the Tillamook Headlight is not en thusiastic over the adoption of the woman suffrage amendment. Follow ing is a brief excerpt from the Head light's columns: Suppose that the woman suffrage amendment should pass, who will control the votes of the pros titutes in our large cities? This is a dangerous element to bring into our body politic, especially when the vote is close. Fancy a candidate for office, with strong social purity ideas, having to toady to this element, for votes, while on the other hand, we do not think it would shock the modesty of the average ward politician to induce these unfortunate women to vote according to his dicta tion, especially if he had boodle, as he surely would, to back him." Tut editor of this paper baa been asked what course he would pursue in the matter of the candidates fur Joint Senator who are now making the can vas. We will answer the question direct. Our support und vote will go to Mr. B. 1 Cornelius, of Washington county, for the reason that he is a Re publican, lie is an advocate of the same politicul principle which the edi tor of this paper believes in and en dorses. Mr. Cornelius was nominated in a Republican Convention, goes before the people as u Republican, will support Republican legbrhition, which we know, has been so beneficial to our country, and for that reason, he has our support. Mr. Sweek, the opposing candidate, is a Jiryan Populist, and neither he nor anv man who advocates and stands for such code of principles is entitled to any consideration at the tiamle of people who believe in and advocate Republican principle. Tub Republican candidate for the leg islature in this County, if elected, will vote for a mail for United States Sena tor who will vote in the Senate to main tain the gold standard, to maintain the protective leatures of the tariff; to hold every foot of territory acquired by the valor of the American soldier; for the extension of our commerce; in short, for the best interest of our country. The Fusion Candidate fur the Legislature, if elected, will, on the other hand, vote for a man for United States Senator who would vote in the Senate for the free coinage of silver; to eet aside the gold Standard, the standard of civilization, I and make us a byword and a reproach! among enlightened people ; to repeal the ' Dingley law, which bus brought such ! wonuertul improvement 111 our indus trial conditions, and substitute therefore a free trade measure with all its attend ant calamities; to furl the flag and de clare for chfus and confusion. Every citizen should carefully consider these j hiv'U before he murks his ballot. THE FACTS OUTLINED. The final act of a campaign, such as is now on, is the marking of the ballot, and in that very Important act there should bo extreme care and deliberation exercised. To the people of Columbia county this ii a most important cam paign, the outcome of which rests solely and entirely with you. We have ex perienced varied business and financial conditions here during the last seven or eight years, and there wore experiences during a portion of that time which few of us care to witness again. It is use lew nt this time and place to refer to the matter in detail; merely a brief reference to the depressed condi tion of our people is all that is necessary to remind us and bring forth the ex pression that a renewal of such condi tions is not in the leastwise desirable. The causes which brought the relief are well known and understood, and we havo faith in the judgment of people sufficiently strong to prompt us to re mark that when the time cotues to pro pare the ballot agmn for deposit our expressed desire silently spoken it will be for a continuation of such business and financial conditions as have existed with us during the past two or three years, or since the Republican party was replaced to power. This is the principal reason for this article, but there are other matters which we desire now to call to your mind. At the next session of the Ore gon legislature there is to be a United States Senator elected. Such an officer we now have, the greatest honor any county cau have bestowed upon it. That man's term of office will expire on the first of next March, and his re-election at the January session of the Legis lature is a matter in which every resi dent of Columbia county, loyal to home, to friends, and lastly and roost import ant of all, to onr country, should become and remain very much interested in. It must be understood that the vote from Columbia county in the Legisla ture should be for Senator McBride, and to insure this there is but one method to pursue the election of Mr. Norman Merrill as our Representative. Mr. Merrill, we know, will support Senator McBride for re-election, and the man nominated on the Fusion ticket we know will not support the Senator for re-election. Mr. Slaughter's friends and advocates may attempt to lead voters astray by a declaration that the Fusion candidate would vote for Mr. McBride, but do not allow yourself to be deceived by such argument. In the first place, Mr. Slaughter could not consistently do such a thing, being a free silver advocate and decidedly op posed to every other advocated princi ple of the Republican party, and, fur thermore, he would not vote for Senator McBride if he had an opportunity. It is a fact, we tincerely believe, that Senator McBride's enemies are sending money in large sums into this county to procure, if possible, the defeat of the Republican nominee for the Legislature, and Senator McBride has but one reli ance and that is in the integrity and Republicanism of the Republicans' of this county to vote their ticket. Sena tor McBride has shown himself to be an able statesman, an earnest, industrious worker for the best interests of the Nation and this Coast and State, being in a position to continue to accomplish more beneficial work for the next few years than any person who could be sent to the Senate from Oregon. With reference to the Senator receiv ing the vote from this county we wish again to state that if Mr. Slaughter was so inclined, he could net, if he would, be of any assistance to the Senator's re-election. He could not or would not sign a Republican Caucus call, and in the Caucus is where Mr. McBride could best be supported. It is no more the duty of the people of this county to vote for Mr. Merrill, however, than it is their duty to support the Republican county ticket entire. Every man on the ticket should be loy ally supported. We have met Populism and beat it down and whipped it out, the fad or fanaticism being completely discredited by its own bad-principled record, and why lend encouragement to such dangerous and absolutely worthless and extremely useless and unfair prin ciple by the election of any part of the ticket. Better principle, at least, is found as represented by the Republican candidates, and we have every reason to believe that better results will follow their election than would be the case should the Fusionists be successful. We ai-k you to carefully consider these statements and cast your ballot in ac cordance with the ideas here advanced. Votkeh are now registering consider ably livlier than was the case a few weeks ago. It is pretty certnin now that the the total number of regis trations in thin county will be very close to 1400. The Fusion vote polled for Governor in this County in lf$'.)8 was a little less than 000, and cer tainly that party has made no gains during the past two years There seems now little reason to doubt that the total vote of the county will be 1 100. Thkkk has been no day since the de feat of Mr. Bryan in rovouibcr, iswj, that has not augmented the condemna tion that the coinage issue received at the hands of the people and the states in that election. Abounding prosperity on the gold standard, an immense in crease in the nation's gold supply, ex pansion of currency until we have the largest per capita circulation in our his tory all these facta refuto aud finally and forever muster out of the area of serious consideration each and every one of the arguments presented by the eloquent Ntsbrsaknn in the great cam paign of lrWH. Not only in the United gtutes, but all around the globe, the world of ti nance and business has been piling stones on the grave of the hone that inspired the 10 to 1 movement. It ia no longer. a hope ; it ia but a desire, a dream. It is not the purpose of the Fusionists of this county to make a clean-cut cam paign, because that would bring out the defects and isius that the party stands for, and the people would understand the results of Fusion success. The Fus ionists will endeavor to rind out who the dissatisfied Republicans are and play upon their prejudices, getting, per chance a vote here and a vote there. Let 110 Republican be deceived by the sugar-coated words of the oily Populist; behind him is the Chicago platform, which declares for everything except something good for debased currency, closed workshops and the stagnation of another free trade regime re-inaugurated. Ma. Moody, whom the Republicans of the Secoud Congressional District have nominated for re-election, it is verv safe to sav, will carry this district by "10,000 majority over the Populist candidate. The ieople of thii distiict have not forgotten what Democratic rule did for them, and are not inclined to take any chances on theoretical isms when plenty of work and an abundance of money is the prevailing rule through out the country. For this reason the people of this' Congressional District will vote for Mr. Moody in such num bers as to give him the largest majority any man ever received in the district. Ma. Fusion Populist, how do you like your experience of being use! as a cat's paw to rake chestnuts out of the politi cal lire in shape of offices for the Demo cratic party? And how do you like the boast of ybur friends and allies, those same Democrats, that there are no Pop ulists left except the middle-of-the-road Populists? And further, how does the present Democratic attitude toward you compare with that of the time wii.'u your party stood second in Oregon in point of votes cast for state officers. Mr. IJabiusos Allen, the next Prose cuting Attorney for the Fifth Judicial District, has not had a great deal said for him in this County. Indeed, Mr. Allen's acquaintanceship and popularity in Columbia County is tirat-clasa argu ment for bis election. His majority in the district may safely be estimated at 1500. When he is installed iu his ottice he will continue in the same manner as his predecessor to conduct the affairs in a commendable way. In atl the political argument advanced by our Fusionist friends, none of it seems to be as clamorous for ''a change" as was the case four years ago. No, indeed, they will fuss and fume and pull feathers, but the McKinSey lot-of-labor regime beats the Cleveland free trade period of six years ago all hollow. Ther can "pro-Boer" and "pro-Filipino" all they choose, but most of the people iu this country are just plain, every day pro-American. AccoaotNO to the headlines in the daily papers the Popocracy of this state is to make its campaign on a pro-Boer issue. Well, that's a little better than nothing, but wonder why they say so little about the low price of wool, of cattle, of sheen, of farm produce, and especially the demoralized condition of the labor market and consequent low scale of wages. After all, tho problem is not bo difficult to solve. TiiF.ns ia absolutely no occasion for trailing one vote on election day. The Republican majority in this county warrants the assertion that every man on the Republican ticket will be elected. Just vote it straight and the ticket is all right. The exactness, care and houetv man ifested by the present assessor, Martin White, in the discharge of the duties of his very important office is the reason why so large a number of people in the county are desirous of his re-election. Fkiknds of Senator McBride in this county can assist him in his efforts for re-election in no other way tnan by vot ing for Norman Merrill for the legis lature. Do not entertain any proposition to trade. That is the only means by which the Populists expect success. A Woman's Awful Peril.

FOR SALE BY EDWIN ROSS. Public Debt Limitation!. If it were certain that the proposed debt-limit amendment to the constitution 6 per cent of the assessment would be strictly observed and would not load to inflated aasesauionts for the purpoae of going deeper into debt, there might be some merit in It. But there ia no such assurance. Our courts- would find oma avenue by which they would de feat repudiation of debts beyond the 6 per ceni iinm, u iney were incurred, and, knowing this, they would be in curred. Five per cent of the city'a Jreent assessment would be less than 1.500.000. while our debt Is already more than three times that amount, it five per cent is a good constitutional limit for indebtedness, we don't need it until our debt comes within that limit which it never will. And if it should, we won't need it, because we will have demonstrated our capacity tor reducing our debt and keeping it within reasonable bounds. What counties and cities need ia not a constitutional debt limitation so much aaotliciula, especially members of the Legislature, Judicial officers, County Commissioners and a Mayor and Council who will do their duty by taxpayers, consider the public interest rather than their own, ana keep the debts down. Telegram. Trouble Enough Already. "Are you a Boer sympathiser?" asked one orator. "No," answered the other. "Filipino sympathiser?" "No." "Why not?" "Mebbo it's lack of time.

A. yn- pattiucr." Pacific Coast Hemlock. The hemlock of the Pacific coast is to be the subject of a special investigation this summer by the government Divis ion oi forestry, and a party oi experts will spend several months in Oregon and Washington making observations and measurements of this species of hem lock. Although one of the largest and most widely distributed trees in the Pacific Northwest, it suffers from the prejudice against the Eastern hemlock. a closely allied, but much inferior species, and for this reason has almost no commercial value. It grows at its best on the cool, dump slopes of the Washington and Oregon mountains, where it is frequently iW) feet high and 10 feet in diameter, or even laiger in favorable situations. It occasionally forms a dense, pure forest, but is ofteii mixed with tir, anil is usually leu stand ing by the lumbermen because there is no sale for the lumber. By the present method of lumbering immense quanti ties of hemlock are destroyed annually, for it is loft to be burned by the tires which frequently follow the removal of the tir. It is believed that if this heui lock can lie given its true value before the public, logging methods may be modified, and even if the market de velops slowly, there will bo a greater elfoit to prevent waste. An Important feature of this investigation will lie to awertaiu the rale of growth aud the time required to produce a merchant able stand. The Western hemlock os sesscs remarkable powers of reproduc tion, and may be counted on to re-forest logged-oll' areas. Blank note and receipt books for sale at this ottice. Skin Diseases.
