Look out for the Oniulitt convon Uou next Moodny. If Grwlmui lead th ticket, Harrlsou' dofoat i a fotvgoue certainty. Tom. L. Johnson, of Cleveland, ia one of the brain Ut men in con Kress. The maimer in which he brings the opposition up with round turn iu the wont unexpected ways is really exhillratinR. Diamonds uudor the McKiuley set are admitted free of duty Americana spend $13,000,000 iu diamonds every year.

Thr New York rn7m, edited by Whitelaw Keid, 1 the uuwt coupi cuoua advocate of Chiue inuiii gration iu the country. It hit not yet recovered from the nibieei into which it was thrown by the Geary bill. It was this journal that first dubbed all who opinwed ('hiuene immigration "hoodlums." The Murphy asseveration that "Cleveland cannot carry New York" is not a whit wore jkh! tire or more Ignorant than riatt's declaration that "Harriion cannot carry New York." Sup pose we let the disgruntled prophets talk it out while we go to work and carry New York for Clevcluud. Xtv York World. ix The morning Republican organ is growling because at the citizen's meeting the other night the people received the nauio of Harrison coldly while they cheered to the echo that of Cleveland. How does it expect anyone to enthum over Harrison? All that he has to com mend him is his grandfather's hat and that has been sent to the fac tory for repairs. Portland Iit patch. Capt. Geo. W. Beij, the author and orator, passed south Saturday morning, headed for the ICast to take part in the campaign. The captain was asked what he thought of the Republican presidential tick et He replied: "Oh it is resect able, but very weak; especially so is Reid. No man can be elected on a national ticket nowadays w ho is notoriously opposed to organ ized labor." Medford Mail. The OregonUtn, More the last state election, said that the sheep men ia Eastern Oregon would give Mr. Slater a gentle reminder ot his position on the wool question. Ho they did. And we find that Ellin lacks 2,401 votes to equal 8IaUr, Democrat, and Luce, the People's party candidate, which shows con clusively that the "sheepmen" voted. Mr. Ellis oilght to have had at least 5,000 plurality to vin dicate the McKinley bill. When it comes to repartee, the Hon. Jerry Simpson, of Kansas, can a great deal more than hold his own with any man in congress. During the discussion on the mo tion to expunge from the Jtecmd iienry George's "1'rotcction or Free Trade," Mr. Burrows, of Michigan, said: "Mr. Speaker, if the house shall determine that this shall remain in the Record, we have untold volumes that we wish to insert in reply." Quick as a flash Mr. Simpson arose and re marked. "Mr. Speaker, it would take 'untold volumes' to reply to it" "That blue vapor you saw on the eastern horizon was the tail end of the cloud arising from the office of the New York Sun. Now listen to Mr. Dana." Salem Statin- man. Well, here is what Dana, of the New York Bun, says: "Better vote for liberty and white govern ment of the Southern States, even if the candidate was the devil himself, rather than consent to the election of respectable Benjamin Harrison with a force bill in his pocket." If the Sun would sup port the devil himself in prefer ence to Harrison with his force bill, what must be its extreme pleasure in supporting so ideal a candidate as Grover Cleveland? , rim closrs thk okkat PKAHA. For years Jamoa G. Blaine ha boon playing before the American footlijjhta iu the politioal theater. The last act iu the drama was played June 4, The curtalu fell ou the grout American actor that day never to rise again. The prologue may be found in the fol lowing utterance, and played before Manager Clarksou Fell, , ISM, I am not a candidate for the pit ideucy, and my name wilt not go before the Republican national con vention for the Domination. I make this announcement in due season. His name did go More the Re publican convention as a candidate for the presidency wit h his consent, and on June 4th the curtain rose, and the following, act second, was played amid the greatest excite ment before ttVXHVMK) Americana, and roads its follows: DKfAKTM&N'T OK STATU. ) June 4, lstfl To Me ftvoidfHt; I respectfully Ih'jj leave to submit my resignation of t he otlloe of secretary of state of the rutted States, to which I was appointed by you ou the fttfi of March.

I have the honor to bo, very respectfully, your oboUiout servant, JamkhG. Rlaisb. Note. The alwve is the last act of Mr. Blaine's mihlio life. All we cau say is rfniW in jnky. thk Krmm. Mr. Harrison placed the follow ing epitaph upon Mr. Blames tombstone: KxKcrnvR Mansion', ) June 4, ism I To the Sriirtttry of State; Your letter of this tint, tendering your resignation of tlm onice of secretary of state of the lrtiittnl States, hits been received. The terms in winch you state your uurt" are such as to leave me no choice but to accede to your wWies at once. Your resignation is therefore ac cepted. Bknjamix Hakuisox. llow singularly strange it is that men iu high positions will play the act of the suicide seemingly with their eycaopcu. riiortxrtoy ok mm: trade It has long been the custom of members of congress to have priut ed In the Ctmgrtiuitmal Ilewrd any matter that suited their fancy, as a part or all of their speeches on the tloor. During the campaign of 1SS4, Mr. Brewer, of New Jersey, priuted as his speech on the tariff question, a chapter from Blaine's "Twenty Years in Congress." Time and agaiu members have done likewise, and no objection was ever made. No objection can 1 made, under the rules and usngt of the house: and it is right that the members make use of the V.Ve- ord iu this way, as it saves time and disseminates information. But the objection of two or three Re publicans, whoso party has from time Immemorial done toe same thing, to the printing in the AVwnl of Henry George's able book, "Protection or Free Trade?" by several Democrats and Alliance men as their speeches during the recent tariff debate, comes with poor grace. Their objections were not sustained, however, were not even brought to a vote, as it be came painfully apparent to them that if these extracts were stricken from the l!mrd, a vast amount of matter inserted by the Republicans would also have to be stricken out. And so the book was printed en tire, and is now lieing sent broad cast over the country. The edition will reach at least 2,000,000 copies, and every voter receiving it will become an alwolute free trader. We say this advisedly: every man, no matter what his politics, who will read "Protection or Free Trade?" thoroughly, will become an ardent advocate of trade absolutely free. It is the only book that com mences at the ls-glnnlng of the subject, discusses both Hides of if, and then carries the argument to its logical and irresistible conclu sion. The Wkht Sidk will bo glad to mail a copy to any address in the United States for a two-cent stamp. Or, if you like, send di rect to your congressman, regard less of his politics, and ho will send you a copy free. Henry Villard (and who is better known in the Pacific Northwest?) sends out 10, 000 oopies at his own expense, and from all over the nation orders are pouring in for from ilfty copies to 100,000 copies. Thk judges of the Virginia court of appeals are worthy of all the praise ever bestowed on Marshall, Mansfield, or Marcus Aureliiis. They have decided that Bcttie Lewis, the married daughter of W. L. Thomas, deceased, a white man who wits the common-law husband of a colored woman, is his legal heir. Thomas died intestate three years ago, leaving a fortune of $250,000. Cousins claim the property as heirs-at-law, taking the ground that Bettio Lewis was illegitimate, though it was acknowl edged that her mother was recog nized us the wife of Thomas and was called by his name. Here is an act of justice to a person of color in a Southern state. Cer tainly the New South is advancing. Orcgommn The single tax means Urn aboli tion of all taxes upon Industry and the products of industry, and the taking, by taxation upon laud val ues irresiwtive of Improvements, of the annual rental value of all those various forms of natural op portunities embrueiHl under the general term, Iaud. To tax lalstr or its products is to discourage In dustry, To tax laud values to their full amount will render it Impossible for any man to exact from others a price for the privi lege of using those bountltw of na ture Iu which all living men have au equal right of use. It will com pel every individual controlling natural opportunities to either utllUe them by the employment of labor, or abandon them to others. It will thus provide opportunities of work for all men, and secure to each the full reward of his lutmr; and its a result Involuntary poverty will be alsillahed, and the greed, intemperance aud vice which spring from poverty and the dread of poverty will be swept away. At the national Itcmocrutlo con vention Iu Chicago, Wjsduesday, Grover Cleveland wits nominated by a vote 613 to 113 for Hill. There is no doubt but that Grover Cleveland is the strongest pre! deutlal timber iu the Iciuocraiir party, and only a count will tell which man, Harrison or Cleveland, will be the next president The vote of t he People's party makes nil canvasses uncertain and unre liable. Ulle the same two meu lead the ticket that did so four years ago, the circumstance are entirely changed.
