Our county authorities are .''fominst" the peo ple finding out. A large nunilwr of our citizens throughout the county thiuk it a good idea at the next election to remove the ol goose off from the nest and let the people know how many eggs she has under her. 1 ' 1 Quite a number of years have elapsed ' since Independence has . had a "clorious Fourth." Now let committees bo appointed by a called meeting ofourcitiens for that pur " pose, and invite everybody, and let the. eagle scream, and the Hon roar, and the whangdoodle mourn, but be snrc and let us have a glori ons Fourth of July, which comes on Monday, July -1, 1892, U. 8. A., north temperate zone. This is not a billion-dollar con gress. Yet all improvements which merit appropriations will get them. Oregon has no reason to complainof Democratic parsimony, luo ap propriatious for Oregon rivers and harbors are more liberal than ever before. Yet it is not done as a favor to Oregon or to make politi cal capital,but simply because it is right. That is tho Democratic plan for disbursing tho public funds: - - Mr. Cauxkoik is a strong lie- publican. Ho regards the MeKin ley tariff net as the greatest tlw- ine the conntrv has ever nan. ice gardingtho'coiuing national election he is confident that the Republican nominee, whoever he may tie. will be elected. Oregon Htatr Journal Xo doul)t of it. - Mr. Carnegie lias made "Sn il lions by protection and since millionaires are a great "blessing'' (t) to the country, that ccntleman Bhonlu import more Hungarians, and pay them seventy five cents a .day for their work, and thus bless (?) this glorious conn try of ours.. Of course, Mr. Cur negie needs a Republican presi dent in his business. ' HE SEES THE "SU VA TI0X Our friend, Rev. R. F. iionnoll, in replying to our criticisms of his speech in the Nmihwcri Vrwjrcm, last week shows plainly that helms (riven up. as untenable, his former position, and the only one really in the discussion namely, "that the prohibition party is a party ol great ideas." This is tho point which tho Wjcnt Side said needed "demonstration." Now we leave it to the candid reader if he has "demonstrated." We would - say so far as Mr. Bonncll's strictures are concerned, that a mere novice in exegetics knows that our inter pretation of the passage "know ing, therefore, the terror of the Lord, wo persuade men," is a cor rect interpretation. The brother gives this interpretation his atten tion as a decoy, to keep tho main issue, which we ask him to demon strate from sight. Tho gentleman says: - Yes, law is a terror, but always to tho evil doers; and unless the evil doers, and haply be found to iigut ngninst Uotl, it will cease .to pervert the twichtugn of Hod's word tor the solo puriHwe of giving ahl and comfort to the manipulator of the leglaiaed saloon. Thiuk of It, "Wants to be classed wlthevU doom," Ry whom classed! Ry tho ndhoreut of the prohibition party. Think of it ftgalu! If we were in low we would bo ''classed with evil doers'' by !HS2 out or 404,81 , Totei; and in about tho same proportion in every other state and territory in tho rultd Sttttea. If you were to go to Iowa to day would you x lHHtto fliuUIIUi good Christian people of all names and order among tho tHUl Prohibit ion-party voter, or would yon look for them among tho 414,874 voters of the IHuuoeratioaud Republican parties! Any man not purbliud with preju dice cause, where tho good people are. The mainjpoint is, If you do not fall lu with the Prohibition par ty and with tho "great ideas' which it enunciate then you are a whis ky man, an associate ot "evil doers," "fighting against God," "giving comfort to tho kgallxed saloou," etc, etc, M iMtsilMw, ml jkim.wmw, Tho spirit which inr vades the Prohibition party is one of force, not persuaslou. Tho per versiou of tho spirit of (Christianity is its great mistake. Francis Mur phy is uot likwl by tho Prohibition party, tHcauso his doctriue is Scrip tural, his practice that of persua sion. Mr. Murphy has m'laiitKHl more tuen from their cups and made moro happy homes in Amer ica, than all the advocates of the Prohibition party ever did, all com bined. Our good friend, liro. Iwu noil, says, in closing, that A good sbed congrtvutional bee "attending strictly to busiuoss" will cans' giKnl men sometime, to dosoinevery wickwl things. Wo really thiuk so, too. Rro. M. V. Rork Is acaso in jwiut. II we are iueluded in tho allusion above, wo have ouly to say that the aspirations and expectations of our "congressional hew" is on a par with the hope of success of tho Prohibi tion party in Orcgou. In other words, wo expect to get to congress as soon as Mr. M. V. Rork. We also think that an inordinate: desire to air one's political viewsisacauso of "good men sotueliuics doing some very wicked things,' and is a more fruitful source of "doing wicked thiugs" than tho hnwing of "congressional IhW in Un people 8 bonnets. We hoiw that our brother will see tho "situation,' and stick to his text of "great ideas," and writedown a few for wayifurd humanity, and especially for the good of those whom he classes etc WOLFEXBAROEIt AM) ISA t'CA" Theso two noted prohibitionists held a mass meeting in the opera hoii.se ut Monmouth last Tuesday evening. Tho house was jammed aim me spine 01 mo oceasiou was at Hood tide. The songs of Mr, Hacking were simply Immense. His solos, ami duets with Mr W'olfcnbarger, were abovoordiuary to "point a moral or adorn a tale. Mr. olfeubarger is a very lluent speaker, but decidedly verbose, es pecially so in relating an anecdote. His arraignment ofthe McKluley bill was severe and masterly, for said he, "I was an editor of a Re publican newspaper, and studied closdy the tariff for sixteen years. and finally reached the conclusion that the tariff robbery, and espo cially the MuKiuley slxly-per oent bill, is tho most nefarious piece of legislation which has been imposed upon any people during the nine teenth century." The sneaker hates the Democrats, and said there wits but lit tle difference between the country going to the dogs or to the Democrat. Mr. Wolfeubargcr is certainly correct and consistent when he says that his mission is to tight for Prohibition ouly, with out any alliances with other reform measures. If tho prohibition par ty stands for anything, it must siand for that, and that only, since all other parties have refused to adopt it as a plank in their plat forms. The moral effect of those Prohibition meetings Is good, but their political affranchisement is rather Utopian, and scarcely within the pale of possibilities. The speaker of the evening showed con clusively why tho ltopublicans should abandon their party and go elsewhere, and ho also showed as conclusively why the Democrats should remain in their party to serve tho people in this day and generation. With the solitary ex ccption of one point (that of prohi bition) the speaker showed that the Republican party was guilty of fas tening and perpetuating tho untold evils of bad government upon the people; and we make bold to say, that every reform measure which he advocated, from tho beginning to thecloscof his two hours' speech, (prohibition excepted,) were the selfsame and identical measures of relief which the Democratic party has demanded and petitioned for, for lo these many years. Every re form measure that is practicable or worth the name, is today to be found enunciated by the Demo cratic party. This is the reason tlw lHmocn.ta do not go 0r strange gods, because In tho main they are right, and their concep tion o( a free republican govern ment is the best evec, offered to mankind. While iorfoctlou Is not to lo found In any form of govern ment, the tolling millions are look lug for relief to that party that was born in tho house of tho desars, and that great. Democratic Idea of decent ml beat lou touched the monarchy of Roniej and as the rolling years came on, intelligence deepened, mental horlsous were broadened, and as a glorious result, tho republics of all Uie earth to day are the dlssldcrata of all well gov erned people. America Is in the lead, and "America for Americans' Is our motto, with an opjmrtunlty to compete with earth's babbling millions, Unit we may give thciu broad. ruxcnuK run hvimlk. Several Deuiocratlcjonruals seem to think that Hill, of New York, said an Impressive thing the other day when he remarked: "Other political parties coins and go, but the Democratic party is for ever and ever." This, in fUct, is alxmt the worst thing that can te said of a political party. U is, in ellcot, a confession Unit il has in it no germ of proureaa, that It is Itit nimble of development into any of the higher or better forms of notion and life. To that man who foolishly boasts that his party is"for ever and ever," it may properly be answered) "So is hell. ' The party that la iuca liable of change has no moral organ ism. It is a thing of negation aud obstruction. All things change except the worst of things. They are stationary always. Attheheuu of the list Is hell. Reed, of Maine, made a bright answer the other day to Mill's remark. Hosnid: "There never was a time when the 1 Vino erotic party was not shouting, 'For Owl's sake let us get back to yester day. We would like to go back 1800 veara. but we can't do that we know we can't; but let us repeal something; let us undo something that it has taken years of toll to (it let us make the world a little less civlllxedthan it was.' Nothing could better exprwM (he character of the Democratic party during forty years than this happy an swer to the stupid bouvt that the Democratic party has in it no pi in ciples of progress, and t herefore liever can chauge. OrrtjimUtu, II ill's statement Is correct. "The Democratic party Is for ever aud evr." It is uot a stagnant party but Is a party that is continually adapting itself to the growing exi genclesthnt must arise from such a complex government as ours. ttchangea Its attitude to surround ing emergencies, and rises to meet them. Its fundamental laws have uever changed, and never will. Its autonomy is to-day what it was lu the days of Jefferson aud Jacksou. No inanition in tho Democratic party. Aud besides, has not the erudite editor ofthe Qrrgmia time and again showu that the policy of the Democratic party is not what It once was, or what it was only a few years ago! There is no U'tter wit ness than the files of the Qrrgon'M to prove that the Democratic party is one of chajigc; ami so it ought to tie, aud so it Is. Hence, Mr. Scott in the above editorial, proved too lunch, and breaks down his own ar gumenr. He takes the position that the Democratic party does not change, and yet he has proven thousand times that it docs change; and then he, rather irreverently, sneaking of a place that he does not believe exists, says, Ko is hell." Why not say, 80 Is heaven! Heav en never changes, any more than hell. Roth have always been there, injour recollection. Tho truth is, the Omjim'mn sometimes gets a sour stomach, and then it belches forth a few puffs of sophistry, highly tainted with a vituperative gaseous overflow of hate, which gives it consequent relief. Mr. Rood, of Maine, did not make a "br'ght an swer" to Mr. Hill. Nothing is "bright" that docs not contain truth When any party lieglns to feel symptoms of decay, its stomnch is affected first, aud it is soon dis cemnble by tho sour breath it emits, to wit, tho above breathings of Messrs. Scott and Rood. llnaeflO uf Good lltmili, 8un Dh'Ko Union: Tbey would make It poNfltile for the furmers to take ad vantage promptly of the highest niur- ki-t, no mutter at what nenson of the year.
