The Xew York Topograph it'til Union is mueh incensed over the nomination of Whitelaw Keid fur the presidency by the Kepubticutts. At a receut meeting resolutions were adopted by a vote of 573 for to eight against that no power was ever given the Minneapolis com mittee to indorse any person for political preferment, but that the committee only had power to iu form the national Republican con venuon uai uie union was no longer hostile to that party. The fact that the committee cxcwmUiI Ita authority greatly angered the members of the union. The union printers or the country will vote against Harrison and Reid regard less of party.

II I . . . no are an in lavor 01 lllgli wages, and it would be Lard to find a man who wonldnot say, "The higher my wages are, the better will be pleased." So if it is true, as onr Hepublican friends tell us, that a protective tariff makes wages high, why, in tho name of all that Is good and great did the McKin- ley bill stop at a paltry sixty pc; cent! Why not make it six hun dred per cent! If sixty per cent maintains wages at the present standard, six hundred per cent would make it ten times as high, and if high wages is the object of a high tariff, it is a shame and a dis grace that sixty-per cent wages is all congress will allow us to have. "Tarn the rascals out," and let 's select men to congrens who will never stop raising the tariff until every man, woman, and child, can earn enough wages to put him forever beyond want; yes, till every one has every desire of his heart gratified so far as high wages will gratify them. J Carnegie has alinoHt a monopoly in his line of manufacture, and the products of his plant are contracted lor a long time to come, and this reduction of wages confirms thci tendency or capital to rob labor of a lair share of the wealth it pro duces and to reduce the laboring clawes to the lowest possible con dition of human existence. Home-owning and home-loving American workmen will not sub mit to such a condition, and the shooting down at Homestead of the mob of hired assassins, owned by those arch enemies of labor (the I'inkcrtoiis) and backed by power ful syndicates of wealth, is evidence that Americans are ever ready to fight for their rights, and will not be trampled down to a level with imported menials. Tho gradual but sure reduction of wages made possible by the con stant importation of foreign serfs for the exclusive benefit of our protected industry and railroad companies, is reducing the intelli gent working classes to a condition The Oregon State Normal School 2E02STlvOXJT23:, OZES.
