THE WEST SIDE. U VENTLANp, rskr FRIDAY, IANUARY. .11. IBiH JtKMKMUKtt tllilt HotlietilllO ill March a Farmer's Institute will Ih held in Intlopemlmiee, ami nil who wish to gain a vast valuable agriouKurnl should nttoiul. amount of informnlitm "Orixios editors seem to tU-linht to jump on to the editor of t ho Pendleton TriliHii The pour UviI gets no rest from any quarter,'' tuiys the Sunday Jfemtry. We enn mjih pnthlxe with him. We have been there too, v. 1 Tils present generation should look out for tho future. The whole rtlo ownership of land in the Unite! Strttea is not menace to us now, but the time is coming when it will be the source of much misery, Ourlesneswln this jiartieu lar now cannot lie reminded easily at hoiuo future time. Just think of one English syndicate owning 1,. 600,000 acres of land iu Texas and 21(5,000 acres iu Florida, and many thousand acres iu .Montana. Two English non-residents own 2.1,000 acres of timWr laud, some of it within six miles of Scuttle. Our country would be better oft if this laud were still iu the hands of the government. The most desirable purchaser of our . public lands is the homesteader. All other lands should be rented instead of sold, where speculator reap a rich harvest at the . . 1 1 !. a e uiun.me expense o. the nation. Let us have an alien land law, iu which only cituens of the United States can obtaiu title to lands. OUR AIM. The Wkkt Situ: since it has been under the present imimigement endeavoitHl'to be the public jouriml of the people and for the people. It has been fearless. It has cx pressed right and coudeuuc wrong, and will always be found in the advance of the interests of Polk county. It knows no south n north no castor west, but laboiv j for the whole count v. Ofcoiirsi-j we are a Polk county journalist our aim is tho whole county and wo desire tho support of all its citizens despite the affiliations of politics. When, how ever, it becomes us to defend the right and condemn the wrong the citizens ot 1'oin county will timl the West Sum in advance. We desire cleau politics and a plain issue on the county scat question, and believe if Dallas seeks her best interests she will submit the . matter to the popular vote. Iu every event we are satisfied. SHALL WE HAVE SCHOOL7 HIGH Ou the first Monday in March the annual school meeting of this district will be held. Why wojild not this bo an opportune time to decide the high school question? The taxpapers could decide by vote whether they wish a high school in Independence, and if so the matter could be recommended to the di rectors who could take action on it. A high school is Foinething wi nced; it would be beneficial in many respects especially to the less wealthy parents of intelligent and aspiring children A young man or a young woman armed with a high school education is very toler ably fitted for most vocations in life. Many Independence youths would be able to obtain such an education with a high school in our midst who otherwise must be con tent with the mental discipline ob tained in a graded school. Let the question be called up at the annual meetinir and let us have (helii'di school by all means. Of course it will be small in the beginning but it will grow rapidly with the in crease of population. Tho extra expense at first will be but slight - and will only increase as the school district becomes more wealthy nnd better able to, bear it. This is a , uc8tion that interests all parents c una is one which they sliould dis cuss and call up at the meet ing re ferred to. THE MONTANA MILLENARIES. There is no more reason, we sup pose, why a rich man should not bo a democrat than that a poor man should be a republican. But it has been so long the boast of the democratic party that it was op posed to the rule of the rich, that it seems inconsistent for million- aris to atteraut to run the politics 'of that party. They do it success fully, however, sometimes, and tho election of Calvin S. JJrico to the -fTt4-,.1 Ctfafna unifita ir Ohin iu tin JUllKJL UlUll 0,.l!M,l.V vrn.vr in instance of that success, as was the election of his predecessor. But the democratic millionariea in Montana did not succeed so well. At the opening of the election last jrall, four rich democrats, Ilauser, Broadwater,, Daly and Clark, started out to carry the state and secure the two seats in the United States senate. -l"e lemwry was rally democratic, and if those had gone quietly to woi k wun I some show of diUcrence to me leoile, it would ))itbal)ly luiro easily cone democrat io. Hut they made boasts that they controlled the state by the power of their money, and would win the election if they hud to buy it. The report was circulated that these four men had $0,0O0,OOO to carry the stale with and that they would do it. The vulgar assertion of money power ulVronted a sullteieiil number of democrats to lend tliein under the protection of the Australian ballot system, to vote against their party iu order to bring the inillionuries low. Thcie could scarcely have been a belter illustration of the etllclency of this system of elec tion to insure, the independent action uf five men ut the polls. Not only the democrats were roused to resentment, but the llagraut boast nT the money kings stirred there publicans to greater activity to protect the good name of the state. TRANSPORTATION SCHCMCS. TuuhK is scarcely a town in Oregon but has somo'klml of trans portation scheme. At Jackson ville a motor line company will build to Med ford. At Itoscburjr is ;t projected railroad to Coos Hay, At Eugene the road is to 1h nn electric one in the ell)'; a broad gatigo to the coast. At Junction City they have hope for a con nection with Corvallis by the broad gauge of the Southern IVillc, At ll.iirisburg some of her wealthy eitiens intend ouilding a steam boat to carry freight and passengers to and frour Eugene. At llalsey, , , w,nlMH.tlim with limNvusville and iiei'nllw n im.V a nil fin it. tint! H .,.,,, fol. t0 mol. row, to build a railroad from tall timber on the t'ahipooia to Cor va'lis; also to build a water ditch to llalsey, Shcdd and Tangent from the MeKeuy.ie ,i,ei, lentv miles distant. Albany has RoiMl, ! ton in the hank and is mid y to eonimence in the early spr'ng on the construction of a railroad to Astoria. Sdcn has the Silvcrton motor line assured and wauls an Astoria outlet. Oregon City is isked to grant franchises to rail roads, motor and Portland also to elect lie lines to connect with the i Harrow (lauge ut .Silvcrton. llillsboro has a force of men at work on the Astoria road. Astoria, claims three railroads heading that way, of which one has fifteen miles graded. McMinnvilte has hopes of getting connection with the Salem ,t Astoria road. Dallas hopes to lie placed on the line of the Astoria road; also to Kalian City. Indepen dence has the assurance that the motor line to Monmouth will lw completed before the charter ex pires, which is March IS!)!, and the Albany & Astoria road will either pass through the town or near it, and the Newport it ml Sa lem road will hoiuo day be built and pass through the town. Mon mouth is working for the same rail roads because their advent will benefit her. Corvallis has au extensive street car line to be built, extending some four miles, and is working with the Hrowusvillo people for the ro.nl through Linn county. It will bo seen that all Oregon is ou the alert to secure railroad advantages. The towns working the hardest find the fastest will reap the most hcuclit. The.se gonl times nre not going to last always. We should take advantage of the moment and work with a will early and late. Strike while the iron is hot! BLAINE ON THE TARIFF. (iladstone and Blaine have been arguing the tariff question in the North American L'cricir, and among other things Mr. lilaiui says: the protectionists owe many thanks to Mr. (Iladstone for his out spoken mode of denliuir with this question of free trade, but where does Mr. Gladstone suggest a mar ket for the additional grain and cotton that would be raised by American mechanics becoming far mors and increasing the production of those great staples. The foreign market is filled with a competing grai'n supply to such a degree that already the price of wheat is un duly lowered to the Western far mer. The fanner needs still larger homo consumption uf his grain, while Mr. (iladstone thinks he needs still larger home production. Tho legitimate conclusion, of Mr. Gladstone's argument is that all mechanical and manufacturing en terprises in America producing articles of higher price than the same produced in Europe should be abandoned and the laborers so en gaged sliould bo turned to tlie pro duction of more cereals and more cotton at low prices. The Western farmer's instinct is wiser than Mr. Gladstone's philosophy. Tho far mer knows that the larger tho home market the better are his prices, and that as the home market is narrowed his prices fall. Mr. Gladstone, however, com mits himself to the principle that I "all protection is morally bad." As session after session while chancellor of the exchequer, ho carried through parliament a bounty, may I not say a direct pro tection, of 180,000 to a lino of Hteiiinoin running; between the United States and Englandpro lect ion that Is-gau tux years before free trmlo wiw proclaimed iu Eng lish nmimfacturee and continued nearly twenty years after. In the whole period of twenty live years au aggregate of many millions of dollars was jmitl out to protect the English liueagalimt all competition. It may he urged that this sum was paid for carrying the Anglo Ameri can iimlln, but that argument will not iivull the freetrader, bemuse steamer of other nationalities stood ready to carry mails at u far cheaper rate. Nay, a few years ago, possibly when Mr. (Hailstone was premier of t'.iigland, public bids were nuked to curry the Anglo Indian iiialk A French line offered it lower bid than uny Eng lish line, hut the English govern ment disregarded the French and gave tlieconlract to th l'ciilnsulur and Oriental line, ow ned by a well known Knglish company. Still later the (ierinan Idoyds company contracted to carry tho Anglo American mails cheaper than any English line offered, mid the tier litany company actually Is'gau to perforin the duty, but Englishmen did not want that kind of free trade ami they broke the contract with the Hermans and again gave the franchise to English ships, l..es not this rule justify tho opin ion thai the English policy Is free trade where England can hold the flehl against rivals, and thai when eoiiiHtitinn leaves her Ik hind slm repudiates free trade ami substitutes a most pronounced form of protection?
